The moment he looked at the ghostly figure, Lin Ji felt an inexplicable terror that he had never experienced before.
It's not just fear, it's not just fear.
It was the alarm bells blaring in his heart, the unexplained shortness of breath and tightness in his chest, and the creepy feeling as if the hairs all over his body were standing upside down.
It was as if just knowing the existence of the dark shadow in front of him made him feel uneasy.
There was only one sentence echoing in his mind.
Bow!
Lin Jizhi did as he was told without any hesitation and followed his innermost thoughts.
The moment he lowered his head suddenly, a gust of wind passed over the back of his neck and even cut off a section of his raised neckline.
"Walk!"
Without thinking, Lin Ji grabbed Zhong Xiaoyan and Wu Nan's hands and ran away in the opposite direction. He ran with all his strength until he saw the boundary of the ghost realm, and then he could not stop.
"Huh...huh..." Lin Ji fell to the ground with some exhaustion, breathing heavily.
Even Wu Nan and Zhong Xiaoyan, who were being dragged by him, were not much better. Both of them had flushed faces and sweat on their foreheads.
"That was..." Zhong Xiaoyan asked with a trembling voice.
"I don't know." Lin Ji shook his head flatly. He didn't want to recall the ghost figure just now.
He never thought that just a short moment of running would consume most of the spiritual energy in his body.
It took quite a while before the three of them recovered.
"Donor Lin, what just happened?" Wu Nan asked.
Except for Lin Ji, he and Zhong Xiaoyan were still confused.
"You can't look at that ghost. The moment I looked at it, I felt an inexplicable danger." Lin Ji said with lingering fear, "You have also seen the fate of the two Taoist priests earlier. If I hadn't directly and directly
I lowered my head and hid, and my current fate is that my head is missing."
Zhong Xiaoyan was so shocked that she covered her mouth.
Wu Nan frowned slightly: "That ghost shadow should be the owner of this ghost realm, right? I just led the way to it. Is it the eye of this formation? Or maybe the eye is in the ghost shadow.
In the puddle beneath me?"
"If that's the case, we might be trapped for the rest of our lives, if that ghost doesn't run around and kill people." Lin Ji said in a low voice.
Even the monks in the sixth and seventh realms have not been seen by him before.
He had also faced an evil Buddha who had been reincarnated for thousands of years, and at that time he was not as afraid as he is now.
But only this time, the ghostly figure really gave Lin Ji a sense of fear that he never wanted to see again in his life.
Just when the three of them were at a loss what to do, footsteps suddenly sounded beside them.
After a while, under the vigilant gaze of the three people, Liu Shiming walked out of the forest.
"Are you still alive?" Liu Shiming was a little surprised.
It seems that because he is a monk in the Night Travel Realm, Liu Shiming seems to be quite unscrupulous.
Lin Ji frowned slightly.
"Brother Liu, do you know what we encountered?"
"You know, there is a ghost in the forest." Liu Shiming stood three or four meters in front of the three of them and did not approach, but said, "I had an encounter with that ghost a few days ago, and I was lucky enough to pick one up.
Damn it, that thing is too scary."
While talking, Liu Shiming lifted the left side of his hair.
His left ear was gone, leaving only a hole and a bloody scab around it.
"I just glanced at it. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have died by now." Liu Shiming shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Seeing this scene, Lin Ji narrowed his eyes slightly.
"When the three of us met the ghost before, two monks in the same robes as Brother Liu were beheaded by the ghost."
"They should be my classmates. It's a pity that I asked them to follow me, but they refused to listen. This is the result of being willful." Liu Shiming did not feel the slightest bit sad, and there was still a bit of disdain in his eyes.
Lin Ji had no intention of exploring the relationship between other people's senior brothers.
"Brother Liu dares to say that, he must have a strategy to break the situation?" Lin Ji asked tentatively.
"I can't talk about it. I just came a few days earlier, walked around the ghost realm a few times, and found a suspicious place." Liu Shiming said calmly.
"How suspicious?"
"It's a cave that leads underground. The ghostly atmosphere in the cave is much stronger than outside."
Lin Ji breathed a sigh of relief. After hearing this, he already understood what Liu Shiming meant.
"Brother Liu, do you want us to take a risk for you?"
"Little brother is a smart man." Liu Shiming smiled and nodded.
"Let's go take a look at that cave first. Let's try the risk or not. It's still a clue." Lin Ji looked at Liu Shiming and said sincerely, "In Xia Lin Ji, the purpose of the four of us is to leave this ghost place.
The goals are the same."
"Brother Lin." Liu Shiming cupped his hand.
We are not stupid people. In this case, there is no conflict of interests, so it is naturally better to join forces.
Liu Shiming had no intention of knowing Zhong Xiaoyan and Wu Nan, nor did he ask their names, so he started to lead the way.
Lin Ji and the other three followed him silently.
Liu Shiming first led Lin Ji and the others out of the dense forest, and then began to circle around the junction outside the ghost domain.
"Are you trying to avoid that ghost?" Lin Ji asked.
"That's right." Liu Shiming nodded and said, "The ghost will not leave the dense forest, but it may not stay in the pool as you see. I have encountered the ghost several times in different places in the past few days."
Having said this, Liu Shiming's face showed a hint of fear.
"Fortunately, I suffered the first loss. Every time I met the ghost, I lowered my head and retreated, and it didn't pursue me."
"Brother Liu is brave and careful, I admire him." Lin Ji praised him.
After walking around for a while, Liu Shiming paused and then turned into the dense forest.
"The cave is in the forest. We have made such a big circle. If we still encounter that ghost, it would be really bad luck." Liu Shiming's voice sounded from the front.
After walking in the forest for a while, I saw no ghosts or other ghosts.
Soon, not far in front of the group, a hole with a diameter of only one meter appeared. The hole was bottomless. Lin Ji could detect the ghostly aura inside without even using his spiritual sense or spiritual eyes.
The intensity of this ghost energy is almost comparable to that of the Ghost King's City back then.
"This is it. This is the only weird place in this ghost land." Liu Shiming stood next to the cave, showing no intention of going down to explore.
Lin Ji took Zhong Xiaoyan and Wu Nan to the front of the cave and looked down. It was pitch black and nothing else could be seen.
"What's hidden underneath?" Zhong Xiaoyan looked at it intently.
Wu Nan also stretched his neck.
Suddenly, Liu Shiming on the side suddenly grinned with a sneer, waved his hand, and a cold light went straight towards Zhong Xiaoyan.
But just when he thought he was about to succeed, a sword scabbard appeared in front of him.
clang!
The weapons collided and fire flew everywhere.
"What!" Zhong Xiaoyan and Wu Nan quickly backed away.
Lin Jize used a little force in his hand, using the scabbard of the Tiangang Sword to resist the short knife in Liu Shiming's hand.
"Have you been guarding against me for a long time?" Liu Shiming was a little surprised.
Lin Ji snorted coldly and said, "You said that ghosts would appear everywhere in the forest, so how did you know that we met the ghosts at the water pool?"
