Chapter 160 The Netherworld, the Path to Advancement for the Crying Soul!
In a short time, it shrank to a size of about 1 li and is still expanding.
From within the dark, gloomy fog, faint sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling could be heard.
There were also some strange black lightning bolts that kept leaping and flashing in the black mist.
Even more bizarrely, fish and shrimp near the black mist seemed to be drawn by something, all flying towards the mist like moths to a flame, and in the blink of an eye, all the creatures in the nearby sea were wiped out.
But the black fog seemed unsatisfied and began to desperately expand its area.
Two li, three li, five li, ten li...
They not only emerged from the sea, but also spread wildly across the surface.
That astonishing, endless sea of black fog was enough to send chills down one's spine.
"Ghost mist, it really is ghost mist..."
Zi Ling was surprised, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.
A smug smile appeared on Wen Tianren's face, but he showed no intention of leaving.
"It's just ghost mist... Being able to see ghost mist up close is a great blessing in life."
He waved his hand and instructed the maids behind him:
"You guys go first, wait for me in a safe place."
"yes!"
The maids obeyed and rode away in their escape lights.
Wen Tianren and Zi Ling stood still, watching the approaching sea of black mist.
However, what they didn't know was that this time, the ghostly mist was an eruption of spiritual energy that occurred only once every hundred years.
"That's enough, it's time to go."
Seeing that the ghostly mist was only a dozen miles away from the island, Wen Tianren finally decided to leave.
He raised his hand, preparing to use a teleportation technique—
Suddenly, an invisible and intangible gas wafted in from the direction of the ghostly mist, instantly enveloping the entire island!
Wen Tianren's expression changed drastically!
His magic power has vanished!
To be precise, they were completely imprisoned!
His body was completely empty, and he couldn't mobilize a single bit of magical power!
"How is that possible?!"
He was terrified and desperately tried to activate his cultivation technique, but there was no response!
Zi Ling also lost her composure.
Her magic power vanished!
The two lost their ability to stay in the air and plummeted straight towards the sea!
……
On the island, Lin Chuan also sensed that aura of absolute spirituality.
The magic power vanished.
But his physical body remains incredibly strong.
He stretched his limbs, showing no sign of panic.
The ghostly mist drew closer, and the suction force grew stronger.
Lin Chuan let the suction force pull him in.
His gaze swept over Wen Tianren and Zi Ling, who were falling in the distance.
"These two people are going to be sucked in too."
He looked away and stopped staring.
A moment later, an incredibly powerful suction force emanated from the direction of the ghostly mist, enveloping the entire island!
Lin Chuan's body involuntarily rose into the air, flying towards the pitch-black sea of fog.
Tihun clung tightly to his clothes, her small eyes sparkling with excitement.
The swirling mist completely swallowed his figure.
……
I don't know how much time passed.
Lin Chuan felt a sudden jolt in his body, and then fell heavily to the ground.
For an ordinary cultivator, falling from such a height would result in severe injury, if not death. But Lin Chuan's physical body was comparable to that of an eighth-level transformed demon, so this impact was nothing more than a tickle to him.
He stood up and dusted himself off.
The surroundings were dark, the sky was a hazy gray, without sun, moon or stars, only an unchanging gloom.
The air was thick with a chilling aura; even a single breath sent shivers down one's spine.
Magical power remains imprisoned.
The storage bag couldn't be opened, the magic weapon couldn't be used, and the divine sense couldn't stray too far from the body.
At this moment, apart from his powerful physique, he was no different from an ordinary person.
"Little guy..."
Lin Chuan touched the Ti Hun on his shoulder.
The little thing was quite energetic, its little eyes darting around and its nose twitching constantly, as if it had smelled something that excited it.
A man and a beast began their journey across this unfamiliar land.
The surrounding area was a wasteland, with blackish-gray sand on the ground, sparsely covered with similarly blackish-gray plants, without a trace of green.
They walked for about half an hour.
I didn't see anyone.
suddenly--
Heavy footsteps approached from ahead, and the ground trembled slightly.
A colossal creature charged from afar!
It was a giant gray ape, over ten zhang tall! This beast had four eyes on its face, a pair of fleshy wings on its ribs, and was carrying a strange black tree in one hand as it charged fiercely toward Lin Chuan!
Those four strange eyes glowed blood red, filled with an endless aura of slaughter.
Shadow Beast!
Lin Chuan's gaze sharpened, but he remained calm and composed.
"Soul Weeping, Charge!"
He gave a low shout.
The Soul-Crying Beast on the shoulder let out an excited scream, leaped up, and pounced towards the gray giant ape!
Upon seeing Tihun, the giant ape seemed to sense some terrifying aura and paused slightly. But then, it roared and swung the strange, black tree down fiercely towards Tihun!
The Soul-Crying Beast, small in size, nimbly dodged the attack, then opened its mouth and spat out—
A beam of yellow light shot out from its enormous nose!
The beam of light struck the giant ape, and the enormous creature froze abruptly!
"roar--!"
The giant ape let out a shrill scream and struggled desperately, but it could not break free from the binding of the yellow beam of light!
A moment later, its enormous body began to shrink, transforming into a dense mass of black yin energy, which was drawn in by the yellow beam of light and continuously inhaled into Tihun's nostrils!
"Crunch, crunch..."
Tihun smacked its lips, its small eyes narrowing into slits, clearly extremely satisfied with this "feast".
Where the giant ape disappeared, a fist-sized, jet-black stone emanated a faint, cold light.
Lin Chuan walked over and picked up the stone.
Soul Stone.
The essence left behind by the dead Yin Beast can be used to create high-level puppets.
He carefully put away the soul stone and looked at the weeping soul.
"Little one, you'll have to go on your own now."
he laughed.
With his ability to weep for souls, he is safer in this dark and gloomy place than he is.
Letting it hunt and devour more Yin beasts is the best option.
The weeping soul seemed to understand his words, nodded excitedly, transformed into a streak of green light, and flew towards the direction where the yin energy was denser, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
Lin Chuan continued walking, heading in another direction.
He needs to find the ordinary villages in this world.
In the original story, some mortals lived in the Underworld.
They have been trapped here for generations, surviving by hunting low-level Yin beasts and collecting the fish and shrimp that have been sucked in.
Find them, and you'll learn more about the world.
……
They walked for about half an hour.
Ahead, a tall, dark stone wall came into view.
The stone wall was entirely constructed of massive stones, each about ten feet in size, and stood twenty or thirty feet high. Every few feet, a sharpened piece of hardwood would extend from the wall, giving it a somewhat sinister appearance.
On the city wall, there were still some figures moving around.
"Half an hour has passed... Finally, we can see a human village!"
Lin Chuan's spirits lifted, and he strode toward the stone wall.
