Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 213 The Secret of Ghost Cultivators' Soul Control: Uniting Against the Enemy!

No sooner said than done.

The three professors, who were experienced in combat, were not combat puppets who could only react to Dudley's advice.

They had already coordinated their spells on the axe-wielding demon king, following the brief communication they had exchanged upon returning to the battlefield.

Seeing that the Ghost King's two moves, 'Rapid Self-Healing' and 'Unleashing Ferocious Power,' had failed to scare away the enemy, Ghost Cultivator Mo Xuan secretly thought that he might suffer a great loss this time.

In fact, the Ghost King's rapid healing is based on a similar principle to extinguishing the fierce fire with the power of the Netherworld.

The Ghost King was constructed by Mo Xuan using a large number of ghosts and yin-attribute energy through the broken Ten Thousand Soul Banner. After merging, his own blood energy and cultivation power were added.

When the Ghost King is injured, he replenishes his energy and replaces the affected ghosts, which is the souls collected and refined by the Myriad Soul Banner.

Those wounded souls, if they are slightly injured, are reintroduced into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner for nurturing.

If the injury reaches a certain level of severity, it will be beyond the control of Mo Xuan and the broken Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

Those souls were not ghosts that lingered in the human world through proper channels. They were soul servants and killing tools refined and transformed by the secret techniques of the ghost cultivation lineage and the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

Once the essence of the soul is damaged to a certain extent, or if it is rescued by other means, it will trigger the operating rules of this world and be taken away by the elusive veil of soul guides, entering the world of the dead behind the veil.

To some extent, it's a relief.

After seeing that Dali's powerful teammates had returned to reinforce him, Mo Xuan used this tactic again, trying to scare away the extra enemies once more.

In fact, during that earth-shattering explosion, Mo Xuan had to expend more than three thousand souls to maintain his undamaged Ghost King appearance and make a stunning appearance.

If it weren't for that explosion, Mo Xuan's size would have been even larger after merging with the Ghost King.

Extinguishing the subsequent Fiery Blazes released by Dali cost approximately one thousand more souls.

This caused the Ghost King's size to shrink by nearly 10%, and the intensity of the Yin attribute energy that constituted the Ghost King also decreased.

Healing the injuries from the recent clash of the guardian spirits and the burning flames cost Mo Xuan the souls of six or seven hundred ordinary people.

However, Mo Xuan chose to sacrifice the Ghost King's physical strength this time, preventing the Ghost King's size from shrinking further, so as not to reveal his weakness.

At this moment, Mo Xuan's expression became quite ugly. Fortunately, his true form was hidden inside the Ghost King's body, so others could not see his expression.

But in order to seize that powerful and evil soul that he considered to have an unbelievably high soul strength, and to make the culprit who ruined his plans, the little foreigner, pay a heavy price.

In order to prevent the large amount of soul he had previously lost from going to waste, he had no choice but to unleash his power again and fight this group of powerful foreigners with his own strength.

"Watch me break through your soul..."

Mo Xuan was about to throw the long-handled ghost axe in his hand again, but before the ghost king could even extend its movement, it felt restraint and resistance.

It turned out that some thick thorny vines had somehow gotten tangled around the Ghost King's arm.

Just as Mo Xuan was about to have the Ghost King exert its power to break free from these thorny vines, another unexpected change occurred.

Two armored stone figures, roughly the same size as the Ghost King, suddenly emerged from the soil. One of them grabbed one of the Ghost King's thighs and flipped him to the ground.

This was the result of the combined power of Professor Sprout's Plant Growth Charm and Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration.

After the thorny vines and two stone giants restrained the Ghost King, the five guardians of the snake-catching team charged at the fallen Ghost King once again.

Meanwhile, Professor Flitwick, using some kind of magic, conjured a saw that glowed with blue light, and helped Dudley cut and saw through the Soul-Snatching Chains.

This magically formed saw seemed to be specifically designed to target the soul and spiritual power. Sparks flew as it sawed a gap in the Soul-Hooking Chainsaw that Mo Xuan had created using the broken Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

However, this period of good fortune was short-lived. Mo Xuan realized his current predicament and once again erupted violently.

"Netherworld of Demons! Soul-Slaying Flower Rain! Soul-Locking Purgatory!"

Mo Xuan, inside the Axe-wielding Ghost King, shouted fiercely. The name of the move, shouted in Chinese, seemed to be like a spell, enhancing the power of magic.

A surging, violent wave of ghostly energy spread out, carrying with it a large number of grotesque Muggle souls.

The thorny vines on the Ghost King's body lost their vitality, the arms of the two stone giants exploded, and the axe-wielding Ghost King, whose size had been drastically reduced, regained his freedom.

No, calling him the Axe-Wielding Demon King is no longer accurate.

Because the long-handled ghost axe in the Ghost King's hand had shattered and turned into a large number of soul blades.

Like a corrupted celestial maiden scattering flowers, fragments of soul light, resembling flower petals, flew out and automatically tracked Dudley, the three professors, and Sirius.

Their souls must be left battered and bruised, then captured and taken away by hundreds of newly formed soul-hooking chains, brought back to the tattered Ten Thousand Soul Banner, and forged into ghost generals.

"Retreat! Create distance, don't worry about me, unleash Fierce Fire!"

Dudley shouted at an extremely fast pace.

He then unleashed his fierce fire, a winding and menacing fire serpent coiling around the soul-snatching chain that Dali had been pulling on, quickly burning towards the Ghost King along the chain.

As for the soul blades and other soul-snatching chains that attacked Dadli, they were constantly blocked by Dadli's orca guardians with their massive bodies and swept away by their huge tails.

After Dudley's Fiendfire spread out, Dudley also had his orca guardian open its mouth and bite the spot on the Soul Chain where Professor Flitwick had just cut a gap with the blue magic saw.

They wanted to bite through this soul-snatching chain completely, taking it along with Voldemort's split soul.

At this moment, the other professors also heeded Dudley's suggestion, retreated, and released Fiery Blaze towards the Ghost King. Their respective guardian spirits also protected them, shielding them from the incoming Soul Blades and Soul Chains.

Sirius Black was an exception.

He suddenly used Animagus magic, transforming into a large black dog, carrying his wand in his mouth, and striding swiftly on all four legs, dodging the Soul Blade and Soul Chain as he rushed to Dali's side.

Upon reaching Dudley, he transformed back into human form, picked up the wand he had been holding in his mouth, and slammed it into the ground, shouting:

"All curses end!"

A bright yellow light emanated from Sirius Black's wand, which he had planted in the ground, and under his mental control, it formed a circular protective shield, protecting himself and Dudley within it.

"What are you doing here? I can fly! I can also use 'All Curses End'! The reason I'm standing on the ground now is just to have a firm footing so I can use it to pull the chain and wrestle with that monster!"

"Once I break this soul-snatching chain, I'll fly away in 'All Curses End'! You idiot!"
