"Earth Curse!"
"Wind Curse!"
Bai Ye simultaneously formed two Taoist talismans with his hand seals, then pushed them forward.
With a boom!
An earthen wall suddenly rose, but its position was behind Dias, which was somewhat baffling.
A frontal wall could block attacks, restrict movement, and obscure vision, but what was the point of raising an earth wall behind Dias?
It was at this moment...
The second talisman ignited, and a gust of wind swept in front of Dias.
Dias was involuntarily pushed backward, and then...
With a bang!
Dias's back slammed into the earthen wall.
And in that instant...
The rising vortex suddenly exploded, transforming into a multitude of wind blades that continuously slashed forward.
"Ah... ah..."
Dias cried out in agony, his head thrown back.
As the wind blades struck him, they could even directly assault his soul, causing him immense pain. His body trembled involuntarily, flesh being continuously sliced open, and his blackened bones began to crack.
Bai Ye was quite satisfied with the effect. Daoist arts were an absolute killer against evil spirits; his trip to Bagong Mountain had not been in vain.
However, Dias was a particularly ferocious evil spirit. Despite being battered so severely by Bai Ye, he did not fall. As the wind blades dissipated, he let out a roar, his hands moving to hurl the chains bound to his wrists at Bai Ye.
"Hexagonal Prism Shield!"
Bai Ye decisively sacrificed the Hexagonal Prism Shield. After a direct clash with a chain, the shield shattered instantly, but it did block the attack.
However, the other chain could not be so easily stopped.
Bai Ye could only quickly cross his arms in front of him.
Bang!
The chain struck Bai Ye's arms, emitting a dull thud before sending Bai Ye reeling backward. The immense force was difficult to resist, and a dull ache spread through Bai Ye's arms.
But this was clearly not the most troublesome part. The chain strike was merely a physical injury. More terrifyingly, after hitting Bai Ye, a vast expanse of black smoke emerged from the chain, rapidly coiling around Bai Ye.
"Bastard, trying to possess me?" Bai Ye cursed, "Good thing I was prepared. Ning Shuang, Sword Control!"
Almost instantaneously, the Ning Shuang Sword transformed into a streak of light, trailing frost, and swept past Bai Ye.
The black smoke, about to engulf Bai Ye, was ruthlessly sliced apart, divided into pieces.
Dias let out another pained wail and retreated backward continuously.
That black smoke was a part of him, his so-called ethereal form. As the black smoke was severed, Dias would also be injured, and...
He was injured by the Ning Shuang Sword!
Although the Ning Shuang Sword was not obtained from Bagong Mountain, it was also an item from the immortal cultivation world, and its restraining effect on evil spirits was undeniable.
The moment the black smoke was severed, Dias felt a bone-chilling cold, a sensation that seemed to freeze his very soul. He wailed incessantly and retreated.
"It's time to end this!" Bai Ye produced another Taoist talisman. "I'll send you on your way!"
Bai Ye pinched his fingers, and the stack of talismans unfurled like a fan.
"Fire Curse!"
Bai Ye tossed two talismans into the air. They immediately ignited, transforming into massive fireballs that hurtled towards Dias.
Seeing the flames, Dias instinctively feared and turned to flee, but...
"Earth Curse!"
Bai Ye acted again. As the talismans burned, an earthen wall rose from the ground, sealing off Dias's escape route.
Immediately thereafter, a mournful scream echoed!
Flames engulfed Dias, burning continuously, eliciting his pained wails.
His fear of fire made the flames exceptionally effective, and with the amplification from the talismans, Dias was in immense agony.
Then...
Bai Ye held two talismans between his fingers and gave a slight flick. The two talismans reignited.
"Lightning Curse!"
Rumble, rumble!
Two bolts of lightning suddenly appeared above Dias's head and struck down forcefully.
In that instant, countless electrical currents exploded outward in all directions, emitting crackling sounds and darting erratically.
Dias's wails intensified, his body convulsing, emitting a scorched smell.
The next moment, Dias roared.
"I will curse you, curse all of you! I will turn my soul into a curse, bear my wrath, just you wait, all of you just wait..."
Amidst his roar, Dias knelt to the ground. His blackened flesh began to slough off like mud. His blackened skeletal frame emitted cracking sounds as tiny fissures appeared, and finally, it shattered completely, burning to ashes in the flames.
"You have found the murderer of the haunted house murder incident. Reward: Polluted Cross x1"
"You have killed Dias's evil spirit and destroyed the Death Amusement Park. Reward: Spirit Body x1, Shard of Godstone x10."
Dias was dead!
As the final obstacle of the Death Amusement Park, Dias's demise was rather definitive.
However, this was thanks to Bai Ye's thorough preparations. Otherwise, Dias would not have been so easy to deal with. His powerful physique and the swinging chains were difficult to resist. Moreover, Dias's true form was an evil spirit that could directly possess a body.
Yet, due to the T-virus biological modification, Bai Ye's physical body was not significantly inferior to Dias's. And while possession was the most terrifying aspect of an evil spirit, Bai Ye's talismans and the Ning Shuang Sword could both restrain Dias, rendering his possession ability largely useless against Bai Ye.
But the matter was not over yet. The curse Dias unleashed upon his death would manifest as flames to burn down the entire amusement park again. Therefore, Bai Ye's immediate task, even more so than checking his rewards, was...
To escape!
Picking up the Dragon's Roar from the ground, Bai Ye turned and ran.
With Dias's death, the other evil spirits in the haunted house also perished. Soon, Bai Ye rushed out of the haunted house.
The moment he exited, Bai Ye felt waves of heat wash over him.
Everywhere he looked, the entire amusement park was ablaze.
The massive sign of the haunted house had fallen, burning and blocking the entrance.
Bai Ye quickly moved forward, kicked the sign away, and rushed out.
Escaping a burning amusement park would not have been too difficult if that were the only challenge. The problem was...
He was facing more than just roaring flames.
