Chapter 940: Lin Rui Vs Blackheart 2

Lin Rui seemed to be focused on the task at hand, and he quickly told Bucky what they needed to do. “Bucky, there should be a way for Blackheart to unlock the seal,” He said. “There will probably be a lot of evil spirits appearing soon, so you should hide outside the ruins with Miss Roxanne. Johnny and I will take care of Blackheart.”. 

Bucky seemed to hesitate, but Lin Rui assured him that they would be able to handle Blackheart. “Are you sure you can deal with him?” Bucky asked, clearly concerned.

“Don’t worry, I’m sure,” Lin Rui replied confidently. “Besides, Ghost Rider has a solution.”

Satisfied with Lin Rui’s assurance, Bucky nodded and quickly made his way out of the ruins. Lin Rui’s internal energy protected him as he rushed out of the center of the ruins and away from the range covered by Blackheart’s black mist. 

It was clear that he wanted to get as far away from the danger as possible, and Lin Rui and Ghost Rider would have to handle Blackheart on their own.

Huh~

As Bucky escaped from the range of Blackheart’s black mist, the villain’s chanting came to an end. The mist that had permeated the entire ruined land quickly shrank back, and Blackheart’s body reformed in the centre of the area. 

It seemed that he had successfully lifted the seal on the evil spirits trapped within the contract, and they would now be unleashed upon the world.

Blackheart stood in the centre of the ruined land, cackling with glee. “Hahaha! Sealed souls! Come out! Come to me!” he shouted, clearly pleased with himself for having unlocked the seal and released the evil spirits. 

Pū Pū Pū!

As Blackheart laughed and shouted, the ruins of San Vangonza seemed to come alive. There was a sound of stones breaking and falling as a wave of evil energy emanated from all around them. 

Lin Rui and the others could feel the malevolent energy swirling around them, and they knew they had to be ready to face whatever was coming their way.

As the evil energy continued to swirl around them, dark gray streaks of energy surged out from the ruins and the ground. Each streak took the form of a skeleton, resembling the evil ghosts often depicted in horror movies. 

However, these skeletons were even more intimidating and terrifying than anything that had been depicted on screen.

Lin Rui watched as the evil spirits emerged from the ruins, taking the form of terrifying skeletons. He seemed to be deep in thought, and he muttered to himself, “So there are really ghosts in this world? Or are they just special energy bodies with special forms?”

Hurrah!

Lin Rui and Johnny stood together, prepared to defend themselves against the evil spirits that were rushing towards them. 

They made no move to stop the spirits from heading towards Blackheart, as it seemed they were more interested in defending themselves against the malevolent beings.

…

Brush!

“Woo~~”

Occasionally, malevolent spirits would fly past Lin Rui and Johnny, emitting piercing screams, but they did not attack the two living beings. 

As Lin Rui observed, Blackheart opened his arms and embraced these malevolent spirits into his body, causing Lin Rui’s eyes to become brighter and brighter.

“Johnny, do you remember the technique I mentioned earlier?” Lin Rui said to Johnny, who was standing beside him in his recovered state. Lin Rui noticed that Blackheart had absorbed most of the evil souls and decided it was time to take action.

“I remember, but are you sure that technique will work this time? As I recall, it failed on you not too long ago,” Johnny replied, looking at Lin Rui with a concerned expression on his face.

“If everything goes according to plan, it should be successful. But the dawn is approaching and I’m not sure if you’ll be able to transform smoothly. If you can’t transform, it could complicate matters,” Lin Rui said, understanding Johnny’s concern. He was now more worried about whether there would be any issues on Johnny’s end.

“Dawn does have an impact on my transformation, but it’s not a guarantee. Plus, we’re in the dark right now, so it shouldn’t be a problem. As long as you confirm that the technique is effective, I’m ready to take him down,” Hearing Lin Rui’s words, Johnny said in a serious tone.

“You need to have confidence in yourself. Ghost Rider is much stronger than you realize,” Lin Rui said as he patted Johnny on the shoulder.

Blackheart had absorbed all the evil souls of Seal into his body, causing a strong black energy to surge within him. His body was unstable and it seemed as if it couldn’t withstand the energy he had taken in. 

His once human-like face was now contorted with protruding, terrifying teeth and his eyes shone with a blood-red light. Lin Rui and Johnny watched as Blackheart struggled to contain the immense power within him.

“I am called the Ghost…because there are so many of us,” Blackheart said, his voice distorted after absorbing so many malevolent spirits. At this moment, he had become something else entirely.

Shout!

With his eyes shining with blood-red light, Blackheart looked at Lin Rui and Johnny with newfound strength after absorbing countless evil souls. He no longer felt the need to restrain himself around them, as his power had increased significantly. 

With a newfound confidence, Blackheart began to walk towards Lin Rui and Johnny, his steps steady and determined.

Brush!

Facing Blackheart’s approach, Lin Rui unsheathed his swords and attacked Blackheart without hesitation, using the same crossed sword aura as before. 

Despite having faced this kind of attack from Lin Rui before, Blackheart didn’t even attempt to block it and allowed the swords to collide with his body.

Pū Pū!

The next moment, the two cross-shaped Azura sword qi struck Blackheart’s body, causing his flesh to be split into four pieces in a burst of black mist. However, the four pieces of flesh soon came together again to reform a complete Blackheart. It was clear that Blackheart, who had absorbed so many evil souls, no longer cared about this level of attack.

Boom!

After Blackheart’s body was able to reform, Johnny attacked with a burst of flame, causing Blackheart’s head to be blown away. But under a burst of black mist, Blackheart’s head quickly grew back.

Speaking of it, Blackheart’s ability to quickly regenerate his body is similar to that of a certain talkative mutant, except that it is enhanced by the dark, hellish energy and powers of the evil souls within him.

“It seems that these attacks have no effect on him. It’s up to you now,” Lin Rui said as he looked at Johnny after the results of their tests.

Boom!

Without a word, Johnny rushed towards Blackheart and burst into flames, transforming into the Ghost Rider.

Hoo Hoo!

As he charged towards Blackheart, Johnny swung the iron chain in his hand towards him. Although Lin Rui had previously told Johnny how to handle Blackheart, they would still need to engage in a fierce battle to achieve the desired outcome. Controlling Blackheart would be crucial in this battle.

“Hahaha~~” Faced with the rushing Ghost Rider, Blackheart, who had already transformed into a group of ghosts, let out a piercing laugh and reached out to grab the flaming iron chain.

The next moment, Blackheart easily caught the iron chain and pulled it, causing the powerful Ghost Rider to be yanked off the ground and thrown toward the ground in a parabolic arc.

Boom!

There was a loud noise as Johnny’s body crashed into the ground hard. Although Ghost Rider is said to be immortal, the impact still made Johnny a little dizzy, especially since Johnny was independently controlling the transformation and could feel what was happening to Ghost Rider.

“Ghost Rider, you are too weak!” Blackheart, who had always feared Ghost Rider, was now feeling especially arrogant after Ghost Rider was unable to cause much damage to him, either before or after he absorbed the evil souls.

Brush!

As Blackheart grabbed Johnny’s iron chain and threw him to the ground, Lin Rui flew over Blackheart’s head. He had taken the opportunity to attack while Johnny’s attack had distracted Blackheart.

Lin Rui, who flew above Blackheart’s head, held up the Beheading Spirit Sword in his hand, and bursts of powerful internal energy rushed into the Beheading Spirit Sword. Then, a burst of dazzling Azura rays of light burst out from the top of Lin Rui’s head, and these Azura rays of light burst out and quickly condensed into an enlarged Beheading Spirit Sword, which was composed of countless sword energy.

“Cut!” After the huge Azura sword energy converged into one, Lin Rui shouted and swung the Beheading Spirit Sword towards Blackheart through the air.

In the next moment, the huge Azura sword energy appeared above Blackheart’s head and descended upon him.

Rumble!

There was a loud noise as the huge Azura sword energy enveloped Blackheart. As the energy of the sword qi exploded and scattered in all directions, streaks of black energy were continuously shattered by the Azura sword energy.

Huh~

As Lin Rui landed and the energy shock dissipated, the area that had been hit by the Azura sword energy became visible once again. However, Blackheart was nowhere to be seen and the black mist that had surrounded him was also gone.

“Hmm, could it be that I just wiped him out?” Lin Rui muttered in disbelief as he looked at the large crater that had been blown out by his attack.
