Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest-Chapter 580 - 65 The Power of the Administrator is Unlimited
Lin Ning executed the Cloud Dividing Eight Trigrams Step, swiftly weaving through the multitude of ghostly creatures.
The Evil Ghosts hovered above the ground, their forms partially transparent and phasing in and out of visibility. Coupled with the absence of sun and moon within the Netherworld, visibility was extremely dim, making it quite difficult for the naked eye to capture their figures.
However, by comparison, Lin Ning's movements were even more unpredictable and ghostly.
Thanks to Yan Yu's insightful guidance and the Problem Solver's relentless practice day and night, her Cloud Bagua Step had now reached a level of mastery.
Stepping on the Heavenly Gang and treading on the Earth Fiend, she dodged skillfully between the attacks of two ghosts. At the same time, with continuous movements of her sword technique, the Dan Yan Sword struck like fierce lightning, entering the fray and dispersing the enemies with White Crane Spreads Wings; the Green Bamboo Sword rushed forth like lightning, executing White Rainbow Across the Sky, picking off each staggering ghost one by one.
It was too easy! There was no pressure at all!
Lin Ning even felt a subtle sense of pride, having spent so much time in the "Advanced Arena," that facing these enemies with combat experience akin to "beginner monsters," it was hard not to be more than capable.
Behind her, on the rooftop of a building, Xie Ruoxi planted the Heavenly Origin Sword into the ridge of the roof, using it as a large shield in front of her, before preparing to cast her Thunder Method.
Her aim was still poor, nearly hitting friend and foe alike. Thankfully, Lin Ning had already told her to "be mindful of dodging the range of her Thunder Method" and to "blast away without restraint."
Thus, Xie Ruoxi used all her strength—where there were ghosts, she blasted.
The power of the Jade Pivot Thunder was extremely effective against Yin Ghosts. Whether it was ghostly creatures on the path of becoming Yin Gods or Ghost Cultivators who had forsaken their physical bodies to practice spells, just a brush with the Jade Pivot Thunder would lead them to instant destruction without even a chance to attempt to save themselves with a spell.
The exaggerated lethality meant that whenever she killed a target, the surrounding enemies would startle and instinctively switch their attacks toward Xie Ruoxi on the rooftop.
However, Lin Ning was clearly already on the lookout for this—any ghost that attempted to attack Xie Ruoxi would immediately be met with her preferential counterattack.
And since she practiced Dual Sword Control, she could continue to pursue those close at hand, while intercepting any foes attempting to shift their attack to Xie Ruoxi, causing the Evil Ghosts to soon painfully realize that without dealing with this Sword Immortal, they couldn't begin to attack the distant Magic Cultivator.
But if they focused their attack on the Sword Immortal, it would leave the Magic Cultivator free to bombard them without restraint... In short, they were stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Xie Ruoxi was enjoying the killing spree and nonchalantly popped an Elixir Medicine into her mouth, boastfully showing off that she even had time to leisurely replenish her mana, though her True Yuan was still more than sixty percent full.
Although Lin Ning was bravely fighting, she maintained her cool, thinking to herself that she didn't know where the team leader was in Evil Ghost Street, and whether he had found the Mysterious Realm Gatekeeper and the Nerve Center.
All things considered, the more fiercely we fight here, the more enemies we'll attract to this side, the easier it should be for the team leader...
Just as she was pondering, she suddenly heard a roar from afar:
"Give up your life!"
Lin Ning was quick to react, instantly engaging the Cloud Bagua Step to its fullest, springing over twenty meters away.
A purple Yin Lightning bolt slammed down where she had just been standing, instantly creating a large pit.
Thunder Method? Lin Ning frowned to herself.
No, it wasn't Thunder Method.
Ruoxi's Thunder Method wasn't that weak!
The new arrival finally lowered the dark clouds and mist, it was Ghost King Xue Ren, enraged by his lair being overrun. He flicked his finger, and two more deep purple lightning snakes lunged towards Lin Ning.
Fuck, that's fast!
Although the power of this Yin Lightning wasn't as great as Xie Ruoxi's Five Thunder Righteous Art, its speed was much faster. It was a good thing Lin Ning had lightning-quick reflexes, taking off in a low run and dodging at the last second to just barely avoid the two bolts of Yin Lightning.
She pinched the sword technique in her hands, sending out two Flying Swords.
Ghost King Xue Ren didn't even bother to look. He spread his cape with a forceful flick, conjuring a Yin wind to shield his entire body, dense as if tangible. The Dual Swords attacked from all directions, slashing and hacking, yet failed to penetrate the defense, repelled on every attempt.
Lin Ning finally felt a sense of dread, realizing that this enemy's Cultivation level and defensive methods were completely out of her league. She hurriedly activated the Cloud Dividing Eight Trigrams Step, her steps quickened and her form rapidly twisting as she headed towards Xie Ruoxi to escape with her.
Xie Ruoxi, however, failed to notice the severity of the situation. She thought Ningning was handling the enemy with ease (after all, none of the attacks were hitting her), and thus she cast two more Jade Pivot Thunders with all her might towards Ghost King Xue Ren.

Xue Ren was immediately terrified:
Fuck, that's fierce!
The Jade Pivot Thunder, blue tinged with red, seemed unassuming and small, but he was well-versed in the art of Yin Lightning and knew all too well the ferocity of the Five Thunder Righteous Art.
Naturally, he didn't dare to take the hit head-on and hurriedly turned into a wisp of demon mist, sidestepping and retreating three feet. Yet, he saw the Jade Pivot Thunder, whirling about, magically floating towards him from behind. This startled Xue Ren, pushing him to again transform into mist and hastily retreat over thirty feet, barely managing to dodge the Jade Pivot Thunder completely.
You have tracking with your Five Thunder Righteous Art?
But here, Xue Ren mistook the situation. If he had stood still, the Jade Pivot Thunder would have veered off as before. The reason was that Xie Ruoxi's aim was off. Upon launching the Thunder Light, she had flicked her wrist upward, causing the thunder to arc... still, the notoriety of the Five Thunder Righteous Art had the Ghost King feeling jittery, prompting him to turn mist and retreat more than thirty feet in one go, finally evading the Jade Pivot Thunder completely.
