I'm a Pastor, what the hell is an Acute Gastroenteritis Outbreak Spell?!

“With those, I can restore the glorious days of the Spirit Charm Emperor from ten thousand years ago, step into the realm of legends, hahaha!!!”

Accompanied by the low, hearty laughter of Ghost Shadow, the massive bird phantom behind him became increasingly solid.

This person was none other than… Gui Xiao!

Unexpectedly, he hadn’t died after being attacked by the Fire Ghost King of the Ghost Face Organization. Instead, he had fled to this place.

And he was planning to secretly strike and snatch the legacy items from Zheng Cheng, Zhou Xinyu, and Yao Zhixue!

“No hurry, no hurry…”

Gui Xiao whispered, “This secret realm is, after all, the Ghost City with tens of thousands of undead creatures. Let them wear down the strength of these five first, ideally killing one or two of them.”

“Then I’ll step in and kill those few in one fell swoop.”

“At that time, the three legacy items will all be mine.”

“Cackle, cackle, cackle, cackle!”

Gui Xiao’s crow-like laughter, along with the black fog, continuously spread across the area, causing the ghost fog in Mount Mang to roll turbulently and resound with ghostly wails and wolf howls, eerily mournful.

Meanwhile, within the secret realm, Zheng Cheng and the other four appeared together.

Once the light returned to their sight, they found themselves on the outskirts of an open area.

Wild grasses grew everywhere, with a wide road stretching ahead into the distance.

Looking further ahead, a grand city appeared before everyone’s eyes.

The appearance of the city was somewhat like an ancient county city.

The perimeter was guarded by high walls made of blue stone slabs, complete with battlements and watchtowers. The whole structure was black, resembling a giant beast lying in the distance.

Even farther were towering black mountains.

The breeze carried an indescribable stench.

After entering the secret realm, Zheng Cheng received another reminder from the Will of the World.

[You have entered the secret realm—Black Mountain Ghost City]

[Secret Realm: Black Mountain Ghost City]

[Level: LV59 (Restricted to Professionists under LV59)]

[Number of Entrants: 5]

[Difficulty: Hell]

[Description: Black Mountain was once an ordinary city, but one day after the villagers drank the water from the river, they transformed into monsters with strong attacks, like a plague spreading through all of Black Mountain. Three months later, Black Mountain became a dead city.]

[Main Quest 1: Discover the main cause of the Black Mountain catastrophe.]

[Main Quest 2: Eradicate the source of the undead within Black Mountain City.]

[Quest Description: After the plague, the villagers of Black Mountain City turned into Immortal and Undying creatures, wandering inside Black Mountain City day and night without rest. The main culprit for all this seems to be hidden behind Black Mountain City—find it, kill it!]

Zhou Xinyu suddenly said, “The air here is very cold, and the atmosphere is filled with negative energy, which is truly beneficial to us.”

“But I hope the hidden BOSS here is not too strong, as the Light Energy and negative energy we control are naturally at odds with each other.”

“Light overcomes darkness, but darkness also consumes light!”

Cui Xiabing agreed, “Indeed… I can’t sense a hint of life from that distant city, or even the entire secret realm.”

“Maybe the entire city, the entire secret realm’s creatures, have all been transformed into Undead Creatures!”

Zheng Cheng took a deep breath and said, “Right, let’s take full precautions. How about we lure out a monster to check it out first?”

“No rush.”

Zhou Xinyu suggested, “Let’s apply buffs first. I’ve just learned a few good skills.”

He then brought his hands together and muttered under his breath, and a whisper-like sound appeared out of thin air.

Afterward, five golden beams of light descended from the sky, enveloping them all.

“Vajra Shield.”

“A defense class buff skill, it provides all-around protection against any form of attack. As long as the energy isn’t depleted, it can completely protect you from harm.”

Zhou Xinyu explained, and then chanted another Spell, quickly casting another skill upon the five of them.

It was a faint flame of fire that descended upon them and began to burn quietly.

“Initial Illumination of Buddha’s Light.”

“It can temporarily increase the target’s Physique limit and Spell defense, and it has a strong resistance against abnormal states. Surely very useful in a secret realm filled with negative energy.”

“Let me help as well.”

Cui Xiabing drew her Magic wand and gestured towards everyone from afar.

Green light continuously flashed, enveloping their figures.

On the ground, several small Vines sprouted and twined around Zhou Xinyu’s Vajra Shield, shining brightly.

“Thorn Magic Shield, it not only provides some protection but also has a Spell rebound effect.”

Seeing the golden and green lights on everyone’s bodies, Zheng Cheng’s eyelid twitched.

How did they end up looking like five preserved eggs?

At this moment, Purple Poppy also sweetly smiled and said, “I have something too.”

As she spoke, a purple flower appeared in her hand and she flicked it towards the others.

Purple petals danced through the air, landing on each of them and casting a purple halo around the golden Vajra Shield.

“If that’s the case, I’ll join in as well.”

Zheng Cheng spread his hands helplessly, as the Adrenaline Excitement Technique and Penicillin Parasite Body Shield fell upon them all.

In no time, everyone’s spirits, Physique, and Perception were completely different, soaring by several times.

And the light blue Penicillin Parasite Body Shield also made their eyes heat up.

“Enhancing one’s own Physique, Power, Agility, and even mental capacity? And it doesn’t indiscriminately target like the Berserk War Song, nor does it have such severe after-effects.”
