The Ghost King is still within the protective circle of the tornado, it's hard to annihilate, and Gong Leitian originally didn't intend to eliminate him directly. His target has always been the evil path lurking in the corner.
Since the Ghost King was summoned by the evil path, wouldn't dealing with the evil path before the Ghost King is summoned solve the issue just as well?
Previously, there were too many demonic minions around the evil path, and Gong Leitian was afraid that his spiritual power would not hold, so he didn't attack directly.
Seeing now that most of the demonic minions around the evil path have been sent out, what a great opportunity! How could he miss it? He didn't hide his struggling with spiritual power, and said heavily to Qing Daojun and Xiaoning, "I'm about to reach my limit too. In a moment, I'll give you some Talisman Paper, and we'll break through."
Xiaoning was a bit bewildered, "Minister, even you can't handle him?!"
