OVER

CHAPTER 201 - ASK YOUR BROTHER FOR HELP

Huo Violentstone walked over and patted me on the shoulder. Hey, why are you wailing like a ghost? Little Sister Qing is fine and it's just that she's been distracted for a brief period of time. She'll wake up soon.

As I heard Huo Violentstone say this, my tensed heart finally relaxed. Just what is going on here? How did they become like this?

The evil Taoist is too cunning, he actually sent someone to ambush us, bastard! As Huo Violentstone spoke of the evil Daoist Priest, his eyes blazed with anger.

Knowing that Qing Qing wasn't in any danger, I wasn't that nervous anymore. I waved my hands and said, "The evil Taoist has already been sent to the fifth level of hell. He won't be able to come out for the rest of his life.

Sigh, the Spirit Beast was already injured by you, and in order to protect Qing Qing, this injury is even more severe. If you don't treat it soon, I'm afraid you won't live past tomorrow night. As Huo Violentstone spoke to here, he looked at me apologetically. What do you think I should do?

She used this tone to ask me. How could I not recognize her? I didn't even think before saying, I also have something to tell you. The trip to the Underworld just now benefited me greatly, King Yama told me …

After that, I told him what Yama Minamiya had said. Finally, I spread out my hands and said, You can rest assured now. You can bring the spirit beasts back for treatment. When I come out of the cave, we'll go find the Ma Clan together.

Mm, then I'll listen to you. Huo Violentstone nodded. He looked at the unconscious Qing Qing and said, Then what about her? Do you want to bring her along with you, or do you want me to temporarily bring her back to the Dao Shield?

This is indeed a headache. If I let Qing Qing stay by my side, her body would be extremely weak. If she were to encounter danger in the cave, the consequences would be unimaginable. However, if he didn't bring her with him, he would definitely cry to death when she woke up.

After comparing the two, I decisively chose the latter. Qing Qing's sadness was only temporary. After I exit the cave, I will just have to coax her properly.

Sister Yun, why don't you bring her back to the Dao Shield? When she wakes up, tell her that I'll go find her as soon as I'm done.

Huo Violentstone responded. He pointed at Shi Yu who was standing behind me and asked, Who is this young lady?

Shi Yu. I introduced the two of them. This is the Junior-apprentice Sister from the Dao Shield Pavilion. She is also my mentor, Huo Violentstone.

The two girls politely smiled at each other. However, Huo Violentstone's eyes were a bit strange, and her smile was also a bit unnatural. Oh, it's Little Sister Shi Yu. I'll leave Little Tian to you, you have to protect his safety. I'll thank you on behalf of Little Sister Qing Qing here.

Don't worry, elder sister. I came here on the orders of my master, so I will definitely help out with everything I have.

After all of these trivial matters were finished, Huo Violentstone left with the unconscious Qingqing and the injured spirit beast, assisted by Yin Yang Judgement.

Shi Yu looked at me and asked, Have you settled your matters? Shouldn't we be doing our own things next?

That won't do. It's just the two of us right now, so it's hard to avoid the fact that we're a bit weak. It's better to find a few more helpers. I thought for a moment. Right now, the only helpers I can find are the few branch guilds with Dao Shield.

Shi Yu, wait for me here for a while. I'll go out and find a few helpers.

Okay.

Right now, I am a Gold Six Star Archer with a shield, and I also have a Venerable Token in my hands. Right now, I am a Gold Six Star Archer with a shield, and I also have a Venerable Token in my hands.

The business of the Dao Shield was very extensive, covering almost the entire country. There was a branch office nearby, and when I arrived, there were a few people chatting there. I revealed my identity and the badge on my head.

Amongst these people, there are quite a few experts with great strength. However, they are too old, and their words are so dull that I immediately gave up in my heart.

To be honest, I really did manage to find two that suited me. One of them looked very rough, like an iron tower, but his brain was a little sluggish.

The other, since he was the opposite, was extremely thin and weak, but he had his own merits, and seemed very learned.

The rough one was called Baotou, while the skinny one was called Mo.

The reason for choosing them was simple. We were about the same age, so it was easy to get to know them, and they were too fun to be older, too restrained to see me.

On the way back, the three of us soon got to know each other and called each other brothers. I was slightly younger than them, but because of my status, I became their big brother.

With his knowledge, it didn't take long for the Mo family's oldest Baotou to call him big brother.

He even found a place where he could pile up the soil and insert branches, and burn the talisman paper. Then, he became a kowtowing brother. I don't know what the two of them are thinking and I don't want to guess, but my idea is very simple, and that is that I have two more brothers in this world.

I was indeed happy to be with the two of them. Along the way, they chatted and laughed, and unknowingly, I had already returned to Yin Yang Judge's residence. At this moment, Yin Yang Judgement had not returned, and only Shi Yu was quietly sitting at the door waiting for me.

I was about to introduce them, but they rushed forward to introduce themselves with green light shining in their eyes when they saw Shi Yu.

May I have your name, Miss? I am called Mo. I have been studying the Four Books since I was young. I am twenty-one percent this year, and have never had a match until now …

You can drag it down if you want. You just have to do this whenever you see a pretty girl. Are you bored? The head of the bag pushed him away and said in a muffled voice, My greatest strength is my excellent body. Would you like to marry me?

Seeing how shameless these two people were, I hurriedly stood in front of them, You two are enough. I called you here for proper business, not to pick up girls. What's more, Big Brother still has you guys.

No matter how innocent Shi Yu was, she knew what we were talking about. Immediately, she blushed and said, What are you all talking about?

I smiled and said, "It's fine. Come, I'll carefully introduce you two to the person in question. These two people are the Head Steward of the Bao Clan and the Mo Clan. They are both helpers that I've hired.

The two of them once again began to act unreliably. They pulled me to the side and said with a shy face, Shi Shi Yu, he is as pure and pure as he is.

The heck!

CHAPTER 202 - ENTER A CAVE

These two people were truly eccentric. It was as if they had never seen a girl before in their lives. They threw me, their big brother, to the side, and surrounded Shi Yu to ask about her well-being.

No, we can't let these two guys succeed.

It wasn't that I was selfish, but that such a simple girl like Shi Yu was in the hands of either of them. I forcefully pulled the both of them away and said with the tone of a big brother, Before we finish this, you two are not allowed to think random thoughts. Otherwise, immediately go back.

Seeing that I was angry, Bao Tou and Mo Dai laughed dryly a few times. They didn't dare to act too arrogantly in front of me, the big brother, and nodded their heads in agreement.

After getting rid of the two trouble, Shi Yu looked at me. Although she didn't say anything grateful, I could clearly feel her gratitude from her eyes.

However, none of this was important. Now that everyone was present, the next step was to follow the instructions given by the King of Hell.

According to what King Yama said, the cave we were going to go into was in the middle of a birch mountain that was more than ten miles away to the west. The mountain was called this because it was filled with low birch trees.

The birch tree was a special species, not like the ordinary birch trees, and at first I wondered how a birch tree could grow on a mountain. When I got there, I realized that birch trees were not common here.

They had climbed the mountain with great difficulty. Although they were physically tired, they were accompanied by the three of them along the way. Each of them had a happy expression on their faces.

As the saying goes, a man and a woman pairing isn't tiring at all, let alone climbing a mountain. With a beauty by his side and the scenery around the mountain, he felt like a group of people coming here to play.

When they reached the summit of the mountain, a stone tablet appeared in front of them. A few large blood-red words appeared on top of it — Whoever enters will die!

The four of us stood in front of the stone tablet and stared at the four words, Whoever enters dies. "Who left these words?

Little Tian, is this the place we want to come to? The head of the bag asked.

I nodded and asked the three of them, Before entering the cave, I have something I wanted to tell you in advance. There is a great danger within this cave. Who among you would regret it now?

The expressions of the three of them were resolute and resolute. This made me feel extremely gratified. I glanced at the stone monument with a mocking expression and waved my hand. Let's go. We'll enter now.

It's fine to go in, but you should have a plan, right? The Moser paused for a moment before suggesting.

Plan? I nodded my head in agreement. We have to get this. God knows what kind of stuff will appear in this cave. We have to make sure that we are prepared before going in. This way, everyone can give their opinions and use whatever they suggest.

The more ink he had in his stomach, the more complicated his speech became. He shook his head and said, You are our big brother, and you are also the main character in this matter. You should walk in front and let me and Baozi protect Shi Yu.

Just as I was about to open my mouth to oppose him, I heard Shi Yu laugh and say, Don't give in. I came here to gain experience. Let me take the lead. With that said, Shi Yu immediately entered the cave.

Human's sense of smell and vision were very mysterious. Take this cave for example. Not long after he was inside, he quickly adapted to the smell. The stench inside was no longer so pungent, and he could see much more clearly than before.

Judging from the stone walls on both sides of the cave, this place was naturally formed. Every ten meters or so, a small hole would appear at the top of the cave and some light would shine in.

However, looking at the orderly arrangement of air vents, I was a little curious. This definitely wasn't naturally formed, someone must have intentionally dug it out, this means … The cave had a lot to do with people.

What kind of person would choose such a cave? Moreover, from the smell of the cave he could tell that the body was rotten and there were a lot of bodies. Otherwise the smell wouldn't be so pungent.

I remembered that there was a place called the Thousand People Pit. Shi Yu said that a lot of people had died there. If the spirits trapped in the valley can't be reincarnated, they can only be wandering souls for life.

In other words, there were wandering souls trapped in this cave?

The heck! Just the mention of wandering souls scared me so much that my entire body tensed up. I looked at the two sides of the stone wall and prayed to myself.

Just at this moment, I suddenly felt something tug at me from next door. I was so terrified that I nearly ran away. There's … There's a ghost! "

Shh, it's me.

I turned my head to look. Unknowingly, Mo Zi had arrived by my side and extended his hand, but he still hadn't pulled it back. He was probably shocked by my overbearing actions. He stared at me blankly and said, Bi Chi, have you gone mad?

F * ck, don't you know people can scare people to death? Why are you pulling me?

He rubbed his chin and stared at me as if to read my mind. I just want you to explain, to vote outside the cave.

Obscure friends, you've already made your choice. What else is there to explain?

You can't put it that way. I, the Moser, am someone who can help a friend with his knife, and Bao Tou and I chose to enter the cave. There are several layers of necessary thoughts.

I looked at him and sneered. A friend with two ribs? I see that you can stab your friends twice for the sake of a girl, right?

Bao Tou also added in a huff, Don't be angry yet. Just listen to what the Mo guy has to say and you will understand.

Actually, what I was angry about wasn't their choice, but the humiliation I couldn't accept in front of a girl. After entering the cave, I slowly came to an understanding. Since we had already arrived at Wei Shan, the four of us had no way out.

If, for some reason, we were to return to Wu Sai Village now, the night watchman's trial would be difficult. Those three ghost-like fellows would definitely catch us and would not let us go.

Enough, there's no need for you to explain yourself. I understand it clearly in my heart. We have been brothers for so many years, I am not really angry.

It could be seen that the Head of the Escorts and the Mo family were very happy to hear what I had to say.

Just as the three of us were about to be touched, Shi Yu suddenly appeared and said in a low voice, Stop quarreling. There seems to be a sound in front.

CHAPTER 203 - ANTERIOR ABNORMAL SOUND

Don't make a sound. Calm down and listen, there seems to be something coming from up ahead. Under Shi Yu's warning, the four of us squatted down close to the stone wall and listened carefully to the depths of the cave.

Phew. Phew.

In the depths of the cave, strange sounds gradually appeared. They were like short, rapid breaths, yet they were also like strange footsteps. Regardless of what kind of sounds there were, one thing was certain. Something was approaching us.

I said in a very low voice, Is there someone here?

Shi Yu shook her head and remained silent for a while. Then, she said, It doesn't seem like a human.

Ah!

I hastily covered the head of my bag with my hand and exclaimed, Wei Shan is a forbidden area. Who would be so foolish as to barge in … Well, I mean, except for the few of us. "

Shh, the sound seems to have stopped. Shi Yu waved her hand at me, but her eyes were still fixated on the depths of the cave. After a while, she stood up and said, Let's go and take a look.

It can't be. We don't even know what it is. It probably isn't a wise move to rashly go through it, right?

At this time, the Mo family also agreed with me, That's right. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and the enemy is the best choice. We should first figure out what it is and then make our next plans. This is the best plan.

Put away your sourness first. Shi Yu turned around and swept a glance at the three of us. I've decided to go over and take a look. If you three don't want to follow me, then wait for me here.

This little girl is not only sharp with her words, but she is also decisive when doing things. After saying that, she stood up and left, leaving the three of us here without leaving any space for her to escape.

The heck, I don't believe it anymore. Just like that, a little girl is leading me by the nose. One day, I will make you circle around me.

After all, I can't just watch her take the risk by herself, right? I beckoned to the Head of the Household and Ink who were by my side, Let's go. We'll follow her. If that girl rashly runs into some danger.

Very soon, I discovered that Shi Yu wasn't as rash as I thought. Instead, he was pressing against the stone wall as he slowly moved forward. His footsteps were extremely light, and even I, who was two meters away, found it hard to hear.

Under her influence, the three of us tried our best to hold our breaths, lighten our pace, and followed behind her, slowly moving towards the depths of the cave.

The weird sounds that were approaching me from before seemed to have suddenly disappeared. Until now, they haven't appeared again. This made my fear increase and I didn't feel good about it.

It was as if we were walking step by step into danger, or danger had already appeared by our side, but we didn't know when it would appear.

Suddenly, a ray of light shone from my body, and even Shi Yu, who was walking at the very front, felt it. She quickly arrived in front of me like a ghost and said, What are you doing?

I... I don't know.

Is there something glowing on you? Shi Yu scanned my body back and forth. It was as if he had the ability to see through me.

Being stared at by a girl in front of me and using a gaze that could see through me, it was as though I was standing naked in front of her. This made me feel extremely uncomfortable. A very strange feeling quickly appeared.

Hey, why are you in a daze? Didn't you hear Xiao Cui telling you to take out the glowing things?

While I was wandering about in that strange feeling that I had never experienced before, I was abruptly interrupted by Mo Zi. I awkwardly grinned, reached my hands into my pockets and suddenly touched something.

Yes, it's the piece of parchment that Grandpa gave me, the Yin Suppressing Jade that I found in the treasure trove.

Could it be that the thing that lit up just now was this Yin Suppressing Jade? Without a doubt, there was nothing else in his pockets other than this Yin Jade.

Don't tell me it was sent out by this thing. I took out the Yin Jade and placed it in front of them before continuing, It's just a piece of ordinary quality jade. I originally wanted to throw it away, but I wasn't able to do so.

After saying that, I raised my hand to throw it away, but was stopped by Shi Yu. She stared at the Yin Suppressing Jade and said with a shocked expression, Where did you get this?

I didn't speak the truth when faced with Shi Yu's overreaction. Grandfather had been feigning paralysis all these years, and there must be a reason behind it. Before I figure it out, I didn't want my grandfather's matter to be exposed.

I picked it up.

Shi Yu was startled and swallowed his words. After pausing for a moment, he suddenly let out a happy smile and said, That's great. With it here, it will bring us unexpected help.

Ah, isn't it just a piece of jade? How can it still help us?

Saying that, he revealed a puzzled expression, If you want me to be able to learn five cars without being able to see through the origins of this jade, could it be that Miss Xiao Cui knows a little about it? Why don't you tell me about it and let me have a look as well?

This is the Yin Suppressing Jade …

We all know its name, but its origins and uses …

Shi Yu impatiently waved her hand and said, Let's talk about the Yin Suppressing Jade when we have time. Now, Xiang Tian, since you have the Yin Suppressing Jade, you should fully utilize it.

I looked at her in a daze and doubtfully asked, What do you mean?

The effect of the Art of Enchantment is beyond your expectations. With its existence, my confidence has increased by a lot. After saying a few words to herself, Shi Yu then looked at me and said, From now on, you will walk at the front of the group and observe the Yin Jade's reaction at any time.

It was not a good thing to let me take the risk just because of this broken stone. I handed the Art of Summoning to her and said, Since you think this stone is so good, I'll give it to you right now.

That won't do, the Art of Soulreaper is a treasure used to suppress evil spirits. It has its own intelligence, and since it was used on you, it has already accepted you as its master. Shi Yu's gaze did not leave the Yin Jade for a moment. From the looks of it, she liked it a lot.

I didn't understand at all. It was just a piece of jade, and even if it really did look like what Shi Yu said and that it was an evil suppressing treasure, it was still a dead object after all. How could it live on its own?

Stop blanking out. You'll soon see some of the effects of the Soulreaper Art. Shi Yu displayed a respect that he had never shown before. He gestured towards me and said, I will depend on you for my future path.

Compared to her current expression towards me, I always felt that this little girl was setting me up.

However, I am certain of one thing, no matter what that lass does, she will not harm me. Clenching the Soulreaper Art tightly in my hand, I said, Let me go to the front of the team. This is fine, but tell me first, why did it suddenly light up just now, right?

CHAPTER 204 - SOULREAPER ART INDUCTION

The Art of Enchantment is a treasure for suppressing evil. It can immediately sense the evil energy in the surroundings and issue a warning. The light it gave us just now was a warning that there is evil energy here. That is to say, there is a soul here.

Hearing her words, I understood a little more. The Art of Soul Awakening is just like a probe. It can sense the evil energy and send out warnings towards us. In other words, this is a pretty good treasure. No wonder when Grandfather found out I was coming to Wei Shan, he gave me the sheepskin scroll.

Knowing the effects of the Art of Soul Awakening, even if it was only used as a probe, it allowed me to feel more at ease. It wasn't like before, where I was just like a fool who didn't know anything.

Sure, just follow behind me.

I am a person who is at the core of everything, how can I follow others like a tramp, willing to be a lackey, moreover, I am following a little girl at this moment, it makes me even more ashamed.

I am a bit of a male chauvinist, but my character is not something that I can control. Although I would be the first to encounter danger if I were to walk in front of this strange cave, I do not care.

However, I am not stupid. I cannot expose myself to danger just for the sake of my inner dignity as a man.

At this moment, I held the Art of Wondering, and my gaze was observing the warning signal it could emit. I leaned against the stone wall, and carefully walked forward step by step. The strange sounds I heard previously really seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden.

After walking for about ten minutes or so, they had traveled about a hundred meters within the cave. No other strange sounds could be heard, and the Art of Enchantment in their hands returned to its unremarkable appearance. It once again looked like a broken rock.

What's going on? I stopped and asked Shi Yu, who was following closely behind me.

She shook her head and said, It does seem very strange. Those sounds I heard earlier were clearly approaching us, so why did they suddenly disappear?

Could it be that they have sensed the existence of the Art of Soulreaper?

That might be the reason. However, we cannot be careless. We cannot rely too much on the Art of Soul Awakening …

When I heard her say that, I was immediately displeased. What do you mean by no? Just now, you told me that as long as the Art of Enchantment exists, it will be of great help to us. Why did it change in the blink of an eye?

My meaning is not that the soul stealing is not trustworthy. Rather, it has just become its master, and there is an element of instability within it. It still needs to be further tempered between you and it in order to fully grasp the function of the soul attracting technique.

I looked at the Soulreaper Art in my hands and said puzzledly, It's not my girlfriend, how can I train with it?

Hehe, it's not the kind of interaction between people, but rather a very subtle feeling. Of course, in this area you are only passive, and you still need to perform the Art of Soulreaper on your own.

After saying so much, it sounds to me like you're talking nonsense. Forget it, you don't need to explain any further. Even if you say more, I won't understand.

Continue.

When I heard Shi Yu say this, I moved forward once again. My confidence was lacking compared to before. Heaven knows if the Art of Soul Awakening was effective or if it would prompt when I met a soul body.

If I were to say that it was possible for it to be dangerous and the Soulreaper Skill didn't warn me, wouldn't that mean that I would be in danger?

The more I thought about it, the more terrified I became. This wasn't just a common fear, but a possibility that was unknown. Combined with my fear of spirits, it made all the nerves in my body tense up.

I can't refute it either. Otherwise, I would be laughed to death by that girl, Shi Yu, calling me a coward who fears death.

No, I definitely can't be mocked by her. I must grit my teeth and persevere. Besides, one of Shi Yu's words was right, I need to experience some tribulations to remove some of my weaknesses so that I can become better.

Besides, I was the one who suggested the trip to Wei Shan. I can't let him fall at such a crucial moment, right? Hold on, you have to hold on.

Even though I understand the logic behind my words, I still feel terrified even in a situation where danger may descend upon me at any moment. Even my footsteps are a bit disorderly.

As for Shi Yu and the other two, they just followed behind me. Apart from the light footsteps, they didn't make any other movements. With their existence, it gave me a sense of assurance.

Speaking of the Art of Soulreaper, I felt a sense of self-mockery. Four lives were actually pressed on top of a broken rock. Am I going crazy … At that moment, I suddenly saw the Art of Soul Awakening once again shine.

This light suddenly appeared, causing me to be caught off guard. I almost threw away the Soulreaper Art.

Shi Yu's reaction was the fastest. Or perhaps it could be said that she had been observing the Soulreaper Art's warning the entire time. She quickly came to my side, pulled me behind her, and said in a low voice, Be careful.

You … I also saw that the Art of Soulreaper issued a warning.

No matter what you see later, don't come and help me. You just have to protect yourselves while you are being retarded. As Shi Yu spoke, she pulled out a peach wood sword from an unknown place and held it horizontally in front of her chest as if she was facing a great enemy.

I've heard rumors of cultivators capturing ghosts before, and I know what the peach wood sword is used for. However, this is the first time I've seen Shi Yu's actions.

You want to fight a ghost?

Without even turning her head, Shi Yu said, The wrong thing to do is to kill ghosts!

Formidable, I sincerely admire her from the bottom of my heart. The dissatisfaction I had towards her previously immediately vanished like smoke into thin air. Ignoring the fact that Shi Yu did not have the ability to kill ghosts, I was greatly surprised that she was not afraid of this.

A seemingly weak girl could hold a peach wood sword in a cave filled with weird things and dare to threaten to kill ghosts. Other than madmen, there was probably experts and even Shi Yu was not among those two.

Seeing her current calm, all I can do is give her a big praise in my heart. Of course, I hope that she really has the ability to keep her promise, but … The next scene made my expectations sink to the bottom.

I saw a black shadow sway in front of Shi Yu. It was just a blur, but the peach wood sword in Shi Yu's hand was knocked flying and broke into two pieces on the stone wall.

So powerful. Shi Yu cried out in surprise.

I no longer cared about the danger. I quickly arrived beside Shi Yu and stood beside her. I said, Let me help you.

Stay by the side. Shi Yu pushed me behind her and stared fixedly at the front. Her hand was tightly clenched, as if she was holding something.

CHAPTER 205 - SHI YU WEI WEI

I was violently pushed backwards by this girl, so I didn't see what she was holding in her hands. However, I quickly understood.

Just as I steadied my body and was about to retreat, I saw that figure appear once again. It was spinning around Shi Yu at a speed so fast that I could only see a shadow. I couldn't see its face clearly.

What the heck is this?

My eyes didn't move at all as I stared at Shi Yu, who was standing not too far away. My heart was sweating for her, hoping that the little girl could hold on, let alone kill a ghost, as long as she could guarantee her own safety.

As expected, Shi Yu was not simple. One failure after another did not affect her in the slightest. Her two hands constantly danced in front of her as if she was performing some strange technique or technique.

Her back was to me now, and I wasn't sure what game she was playing, but I could see one thing clearly. The black shadow didn't move a step, as if it had been stopped by something.

The speed of the black shadow surrounding Shi Yu became faster and faster. Not long after, it still turned into a shadow. It was impossible to even distinguish its color. Shi Yu, who was in the middle of the black figure, also started to move her hands faster with the black figure's speed.

Looking at the battle in front of me, I suspect that they aren't competing in their own abilities, but in their extraordinary speed.

At this moment, the more I looked down, the more astonished I became. You're talking about a person and a girl, how could she be so fast? This was completely beyond the limits of a human being. It was simply too inconceivable.

Even the BaoTou and the Mo family members behind him were speechless. They were completely subdued by Shi Yu's inhuman speed.

Who do you think Shi Yu is? In the face of a soul body that everyone fears, not only did she not show the slightest bit of fear, she even dared to let it go and fight with it. I rubbed my chin and whispered.

I already said that Shi Yu was not an object within the pond. Now it seems that my initial choice was correct. Aiya, I really like her more and more.

I cast a disgusted glance at the Mo. What the f * ck is going on? What are you still talking about? Scram.

Bi Chi, what I said was the truth …

Bullsh * t. If there's anything useful, it's nothing worth mentioning. You truly feel sorry for your stomach full of ink. I laughed at him, then looked at the man who had been silent. What do you think?

Me? Hehe, she's a good person."

You two are enough.

I was completely speechless towards these two fellows. From the way they looked at Shi Yu, it was not hard to tell that they were completely captivated by her. It seemed that he had completely forgotten what he had told them before coming here.

Facing their current emotions, I couldn't say anything more. After all, Shi Yu is a girl, yet she stood in front of us three men. Just because of this, every man is moved from the bottom of their hearts.

Even I felt an inexplicable feeling rising in my heart.

It was not a good sign when I sensed the feeling in my heart. It wasn't exactly like I liked it, but it did make me feel scared.

The source of this fear seemed to be from the bottom of his heart. Also, Bao Tou and the Mo family both claimed that they liked Shi Yu. If I were to interfere, the result might affect their brotherly relationship.

I shook my head with all my might as I tried to shake off this terrifying feeling. I focused on looking at Shi Yu who was not far away. The situation was the same as before, both sides were still competing in speed … Well, it does seem to me.

After about ten minutes, I completely lost my patience. I stood up and was about to help Shi Yu. Even if I put myself in danger, I would not let her continue.

It had to be known that a human and a soul body were incomparable. A human's physical strength had its limits, and a soul body was originally void. According to this method of thinking, as long as there was a certain amount of time and the victor was still not decided, then Shi Yan would be exhausted to death.

Just as I was about to get up, something ruthlessly smashed into the back of my head. My vision went black and I fell onto the ground. My eyes were fixated on Shi Yu's back as I gradually lost consciousness.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw Bao Tou, Mo Zi and Shi Yu looking at me with concerned expressions. When they saw that I had woken up, all of them smiled happily.

Shi Yu, did you win? The first thought he had when he opened his eyes was to grab Shi Yu's arm and ask.

Mo Zhi pulled my hand away and frowned, Bi Chi, what are you doing? Xiao Cui is someone you can grab whenever you want, for the sake of making us worry for so long. I didn't think that the moment you opened your eyes, you would do such a thing, it is going to make me sad.

Stop messing around. Just now, when you were in a coma, you kept calling out my name. Just what kind of dream did you have? Tell me.

I... Who called your name? I suddenly stopped and scratched my head. What? You said that I was dreaming? How is that possible? I clearly saw you trying to kill a ghost.

Ah, you dreamed that I was killing a ghost... I see. You're worried about me, so you called me by name, hehe.

Looking at their happy expressions, I knew that I was dreaming. However, there was one thing I couldn't understand. Nothing had happened, so how could I have fainted?

Do you not understand why you fainted?

I looked at Shi Yu and nodded. I do not understand. I believe that I did not encounter any danger. What is going on? Also, when did I fall into a coma? Why don't I have any recollection of that at all?"

Bao Tou said fearfully, Don't mention it, you really scared me. I was just behind you and you fell down all of a sudden. If I didn't react fast, you would have knocked your head on the ground.

I just fainted all of a sudden. How is that possible? After saying this, I looked towards Shi Yu at the side, hoping I could hear the reason behind it from her mouth.

Shi Yu nodded at me and said, Bao Tou is right. You suddenly fainted without any warning. However, I feel that something strange has not appeared in this cave. Why did you suddenly faint?

The four of them looked at each other in confusion.

The silence was completely broken by Shi Yu's words, Can you tell me all the details after entering the cave? Find out, what other things have you experienced that are different from us.

Then, from the moment I entered the cave, I would think back and follow them one by one.

CHAPTER 206 - IT WAS JUST LIKE A DREAM

Wait a minute, you mentioned the Art of Enchantment just now? Shi Yu suddenly interrupted me and stared at me for a while before continuing, I've never heard you mention it before.

At this point, I had pretty much confirmed that I had already fallen into a coma from the beginning of the Art of Soul Awakening. As for everything else, including Shi Yu killing ghosts, it was already my dream.

Are you saying that you really have the Art of Soulreaper with you?

I didn't say anything unnecessary and directly took out the Art of Enchantment from my pocket. I placed it in front of her and said, See that?

The expression on her face was extremely complicated. There was shock and disbelief mixed within, The Art of Enchantment is famous for suppressing evil. I heard that it has long been lost, how did you get it?

My thoughts were the same as before, definitely not mentioning my grandfather. With a quick thought, I casually told a lie and said, Do you still remember that night when we were being chased by the night watchmen? I found them in the grass that night.

Really? Shi Yu didn't seem to believe me.

This was not strange. In Shi Yu's heart, the Art of Enchantment was a treasure that had been lost a long time ago. How could it be picked up so easily?

I waved my hand and said, It's not important if it's real or fake. Can you tell me in detail what the use of this Art of Soulreaper is? What method can I use to control its abilities?

Shi Yu thought for a moment and said, "The use of the soul attracting technique is profound, and all I know is its fur. I heard that it has the ability to suppress evil spirits, and as long as any evil spirits approach, it can immediately issue a warning.

You need it to recognize you as its master? I asked tentatively.

That's right. The Art of Enchantment has a strong spiritual nature and it can choose its own master. Others cannot control it. Hmm, how do you know about recognizing a master?

I sighed and said, I was having such a dream just now. You said that the Art of Soulreaper has already accepted me as its master.

This... How is that possible, it's unfathomable that the Art of Soulreaper would choose you as its master. Shi Yu had a look of surprise on her face. In her heart, the owner of the Art of Enchantment should be someone with extremely high abilities.

Envy, jealousy, hate, right? I proudly smiled and said, There's no other way. This is the Art of Soul Awakening's own choice, hehe.

Don't be happy too early, the master of the Soulreaper Art has its own conditions. Only if you pass all of them can you truly be its master. But you need to prepare your mind, and this process might cost you your life.

Ah, and life.

Shi ZIyu smiled back at me and said, That's why I'm not sure if it's a blessing or a curse. Why are you so proud of it?

It's just a rock. Even if it was a treasure to suppress evil, with so many requests from its owner, I don't even know if that little girl, Shi Yu, was lying to me.

Regardless of whether it was true or false, I still prepared myself for the worst. I asked her, What kind of harsh conditions do you usually have? It would allow me to make the necessary preparations in advance so that I wouldn't be unable to react in time.

I don't know what kind of conditions you have, but I can tell you one thing. You have to obey your own heart, and don't try to meet the conditions of the soul seducting method to choose your master.

Me: …

Bi Chi, what are you two doing? Why are you sitting here and chatting? The Mo said impatiently.

Shi Yu stood up and patted me on the shoulder while looking at the Art of Summoning. I've told you everything I need to say. Whether you're lucky or not depends on you. Let's go.

As for what the condition for recognizing a master was, that was no longer important. According to Shi Yu, everything had to follow the will of my own heart. In other words, everything had to be fated.

If the Art of Soul Awakening truly recognizes me as its master, then I can definitely pass through its requirements, no matter how harsh it is.

However, Shi Yu's last words made me feel as if something was amiss. It was as if he wanted to tell me something, but he didn't say it directly … Sigh, the girl's thoughts were indeed the most difficult to guess.

Wait for me here. I shouted and chased after him with big strides.

The deeper they went into the cave, the more spacious it became. After walking for around ten minutes or so, it was actually enough for the four of them to walk side by side. However, their vision was also better.

When we first saw these self-illuminating rocks, we thought they were Night Pearls. Under the efforts of Baotou's brute force, we found out that there was only a single piece of rock from the top. It was just a few shiny stones.

These stones were common granite. They did not emit light from the inside, but Shi Yu said that someone had smeared a layer of night powder on them … Can anyone tell me what Night Light Powder is? Is it the powder of the Night Pearls?

This question even confused the five carts of sour Elementary Scholars.

Shi Yu did not explain any further about this issue. Instead, he stared at the depths of the cave as he walked. It was as if he was talking to himself but also told me, The traces of humans are becoming more obvious. It seems like I found the right place.

The moment I heard her words, the suspicion I had suppressed resurfaced. I thought back to the situation in front of Mount Wei, even though she had followed us here, I had the feeling that she came here for some reason.

Not like the three of us, purely out of curiosity or risk.

Now that he heard her say this, the doubts in his heart had already been answered. It could be said that he was sure that the reason Shi Yu came to Wei Mountain was to find someone, or to investigate something.

Unfortunately, even if I asked again, Shi Yu wouldn't give me a clear answer. This girl was filled with doubts, which made me even more curious about her.

Wow, why does it feel so damp here? The Moser suddenly cried out in alarm, and even exaggeratedly wiped its forehead with its sleeve.

Although the Mo family's actions were exaggerated, but with his reminder, I also felt the humidity in the air. It was indeed different from before, as though the morning mist had just dispersed.

Seeing that we all believed his words, he coughed lightly and continued to display his knowledge. According to my calculations, the air is getting more and more moist, meaning that there must be a water source nearby.

Nonsense. I rolled my eyes at him.

He continued to speak, Don't you find it strange? If there is a water source nearby, why can't you hear the sound of flowing water?

Hearing what he said, I was stunned. What the Mo Family said was right, underground rivers are not that rare, especially the underground rivers in the mountains are the most common. However, these waters flow very fast.

But why didn't we hear any sound of running water?

CHAPTER 207 - YIN AURA OPPRESSING

Shi Yu, do you know the reason? I had no choice but to ask her again.

Shi Yu glanced at me and the Mo family. With a mocking expression, he said, One says that he is more intelligent than others, while the other says that he has mastered five cars. I think that he is just a piece of trash.

You … Mo and I protested at the same time.

However, Shi Yu did not give us a chance to protest. Instead, he said to Bao Tou with a smile, Tell me, why can't you hear the flowing water when there's water nearby?

Bao Tou was flattered. He first looked at the three of us, then looked into the depths of the cave. He didn't seem to know what to say.

Seeing his troubled expression, I opened my mouth and said, Enough, don't make it difficult for me. It's not like you guys don't know, he's always quiet. Moreover, it's such a rare question, if he could answer it, I … …

It could be stagnant water. The Head Chef said in a daze.

This …

Shi Yu chuckled and said, Now, you should know that his brain isn't enough to use. In the future, don't talk about him being stupid. His IQ is so much higher than the two of you. Oh yeah, you said earlier that if Bao Tou came up with the answer, what would you do?

I, I, just, won't speak for a minute.

Wait, let me say one more word. I know the definition of stagnant water, but we've been walking in this cave for a long time. The ground is very flat, so how could there be water?

That's right, the humidity in the air is so high that not even the slightest amount of water can create it.

Shi Yu glanced at me and said, I forgot what I said just now. You just stay by the side and listen. Who told you that the stagnant water could only be water. It could also be a pool in the cave.

Stop messing around … Alright, alright, I won't say anything. When I saw Shi Yu glaring at me, I waved my hands in embarrassment.

After all, the Ink King had been a brother for many years. With just a glance, he understood what I was trying to say. He nodded at me and said," How could there be a pool on such a high mountain, and in a cave?

Didn't I say it earlier? The human traces in the cave are becoming more and more obvious. This pool is man-made.

Bi Chi, words are empty. If you don't see the lake, then everything you say makes sense.

Shi Yu did not argue any further. Instead, he waved his hand at us and said, "Alright, then I'll bring you guys over to see if there's a pool of water in front of you. However, you should all be careful.

I thought to myself, I don't believe that there would be a pond in this kind of cave. Even if it was man-made, this person's balls would hurt so much that he ran here to dig a pond.

As they went deeper and deeper, the humidity in the air became more and more intense. One could even feel the tiny droplets of water on their faces. There was also a very special smell in the air.

Suddenly, Shi Yu, who was walking in front of us, stopped and gestured for us to come closer. She spoke in a low voice, The corpse aura here is very thick, I suspect that there are a large number of corpses in front. You guys will follow behind me, and do not touch anything.

Ah, there are also a lot of corpses here. How could this happen? The Mo said in astonishment.

Hearing that there were also a large amount of corpses here, I wasn't too surprised anymore. Ever since I left Wu Sai Village, I have already gotten used to seeing so many corpses and skeletons.

However, when I saw Shi Yu's expression, I couldn't make up my mind. She seemed to be very serious right now, not even in the pit of ten thousand people. She seemed to be especially wary of this place.

I whispered to her, Is there any danger here? You don't seem to be too worried even in the pit of ten thousand people. Why are you so vigilant of the corpses in this place? "

It's different. When we were in the valley, a lot of people died there too. There were a lot of people who wanted to find a substitute for their body, but those were just lonely souls. And here … It has a lot to do with humans, I'm afraid it's not that simple.

I don't understand. I tell the truth.

Shi Yu nodded and said, If you don't understand, then you should. I believe that you will understand very soon. Remember, no matter what you see later, you must make good use of the Art of Enchantment and ensure the three of you are as safe as possible.

Alright, I know. What about you?

Shi Yu smiled and tied up her hair with a red rope. She said indifferently, Didn't you always want to know what sort of person I am? Next up, I'll let you experience my abilities.

I was secretly speechless. From her tone, it seemed that she was ready to give it her all. I really look forward to it. You also have to be careful. If it really doesn't work, we'll escape from here.

Flee? There's no such word in my dictionary. Let's go. "

As soon as Shi Yu finished speaking, she took out a short peach wood sword and quickly headed into the depths of the cave. The three of us didn't dare to hesitate and quickly followed suit.

Less than thirty meters away from him, a pond appeared in front of him. Steam was rising slowly from the surface of the pond. The surface of the pond was very calm, as if it was a huge mirror.

The water in the pool was also very clear. If it weren't for the rising steam, he believed he would be able to see to the end.

Shi Yu held her peach wood sword tightly and signaled the three of us to stay far away from her. She stood at the edge of the pool and stared at the mirror-like surface of the water, as if she was waiting for something to appear.

Looking at the situation in front of me, I suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu. That's right, I fiercely knocked my head in realization as I realized that this was just like my unconscious dream.

Not good, it really is like in a dream. Then, Shi Yu will be in a lot of trouble. Although I don't know what the outcome will be, there's one thing I know. She definitely won't easily escape.

What should he do? I immediately became extremely anxious and furious. I really wanted to rush over and yell at Shi Yu. Don't worry, I will always be by your side. We will always be together in life and death.

At the same time, I was also very clear on my own strength. Not only was I unable to help Shi Yu in any way, I might even implicate her even though I didn't want to admit that I was a burden to her.

Hey, what do you think Xiao Cui wants to do?

Looking at Mo Zi's inappropriate question, I frowned and said in a bad mood, If I said that she wanted to jump into the pool to take a bath, would you believe me?

Bi Chi, did you take gunpowder or something? I was just casually asking you a question, is there a need to be angry at me? After muttering those words with an aggrieved expression on his face, he suddenly stared at me and stopped speaking.

This made me a little puzzled. I scratched my head in puzzlement. What are you looking at? Are there flowers on my face?

Why do you have a strange expression on your face?

CHAPTER 208 - CADAVER CONTROL

Scram to the side, stop scaring me here.

Really, I'm not spouting nonsense. In order to confirm what he had said, he also pulled the bag head over and pointed at my face. If you don't believe me, you can ask the bag head.

Although I said that I didn't believe him, my hand was touching my face as I asked Bao Tou in confusion, Is it true?

En, your face is a bit pale, just like … For a moment, Bao Tou couldn't find the right words to describe the situation. He was so anxious that he knocked his head.

Moser patted his bag head and quickly said, It's like a piece of white paper, without a trace of blood. Sigh, Xiang Tian, are you sick? Or was it scared by that pool? "

Impossible, how could a pool of water scare me like this? Also, I'm not sick, so whose family will be sick with such a pale face. Don't you know that I'm about to die from an illness?

No matter what, your expression is indeed a bit scary. Let me take your pulse.

I forcefully shook off the Mo family member's hand and snappily said, We are all brothers for many years, how can you hide from me with that little ability of yours? It might still be useful for you to use such a small trick to pick up girls.

If you don't believe me, I will drag you along. I won't easily let you check the pulse of others.

Cut the crap and focus more on Shi Yu. I turned to look at Shi Yu, who was still standing there, and said with furrowed brows, No, I must think of a way to help her.

What are you saying, what are we doing helping Xiao Cui?

I placed the Art of Wondering in front of me, and he thought to himself, Since the Art of Wondering is a treasure to suppress evil, does it have an effect of repelling evil? So, as long as I hold it, I won't have to be afraid of anything?

That's hard to say. I know much more about the Art of Enchantment than you do. The Mo shook his head.

Alright, as long as I'm sure I can avoid evil, it's fine. The rest will depend on the Art of Soulreaper. As I said these words, I made the decision in my heart to take the next step. As long as I could see Shi Yu in danger, I would rush forward with the Art of Enchantment.

All of you, quickly take a look. Shi Zi Yu seems to have sensed something.

Hearing Bao Tou's words, the two of us simultaneously turned to look. As expected, we saw Shi Yu holding her peach wood sword. At some point, three inhumane objects had appeared beside her.

Look at the figure, it looks very similar to a person, but looking at its appearance, I can only say four words QNMD. There isn't a drop of flesh on its face, just like a piece of leather stuck to a skull.

His eyes and nose were unrelated to it, but they were all extremely distorted, especially his two black eyes … Oh, it couldn't be called an eye, it could only be called two black holes. The flesh on his lips was all gone, revealing his pale teeth. He looked extremely terrifying.

These three half-skeletons were just like people buried in the ground after they died. They had been bitten by insects for a month, and the result was that they had become extremely rotten.

Bi Chi, what the hell is this? Is it a human or a ghost? The Mo Family member was already frightened to the point of sitting on the ground. If not for Bao Tou's timely support, it was possible that he would have fainted.

I thought that I could still be considered relatively calm. After all, my hand was holding onto the Soulreaper Art, so I wanted to give me a tranquilizer. I said in a low voice, Looking at their external appearances, they should have been corpses for a long time. Their flesh is almost all gone.

"Nonsense, he's dead, how can he
