I am your natural enemy.

Chapter 564 What are you afraid of? The echo of precipitation (5k)

On the black floating island on the sea, Tuoba Wushen stood there, holding in his hand a ghost skeleton that had lost its support.

In the eye sockets of the skeleton, the black flames had completely gone out, and the luster on the surface of the ghost bone had also dissipated, as if it had been burnt by the flames. It was covered with a layer of carbon ash, and fine cracks spread throughout every corner of the ghost bone inside and outside.

Tuoba Wushen loosened his hand, and the skeleton fell onto the floating island and broke into a pile of diamond-shaped pieces.

His two thumbs were charred black, but as the battle ended, the charred skin on the surface fell off, revealing the recovered fingers underneath.

He looked at the fragments on the ground and finally spoke.

"As a ghost, you are the only one who can last so long in my hands. You are actually very strong. It's not embarrassing at all, and you don't have to be embarrassed."

He had heard of and seen ghost bones before and knew that this thing was an essential material in some equipment of the Lieyang Tribe. It was considered amazing if some killed evil ghosts had a few small ghost bones in their bodies.

This level of ghosts is no longer something that ordinary people can deal with.

It was the first time he saw a strange creature like a ghost with ghost bones condensed all over its body.

To be honest, he had just thought that this was just a monster like a ghost, not a ghost.

I didn't recognize it either, but the black jade skull was actually covered with ghost bones.

At this moment, the Black Jade Skeleton was exhausted by his hard use of his numerical skills. Its consciousness was annihilated, and its spirituality was gone. Only its ghost bones were left, and it was shattered into a pile of fragments...

When he saw the fragments, he realized that this thing seemed to be a ghost bone.

The truth is that he had no experience in this area before. Before he transformed, no one would look for him even if there was a case.

He lives in Yuzhou, and the probability of Zhang Xuewen encountering a ghost case in Yuzhou is extremely small.

Earlier, all the ghosts in Yuzhou who could move had moved away, and those who couldn't move were as cowardly as grandsons.

When he goes on a mission, it is difficult for an ordinary ghost to survive long enough for him to see the other party.

At most, when you are on a mission, after clearing the area and moving forward, you may occasionally see ghost bones left on the ground.

The ghost-made floating island under your feet has already taken shape and is very stable. It looks flat and solid, and there is not a single monster to be seen on the entire floating island.

Only the whirlpool was still spinning in the center of the floating island, still gushing out something like black oil.

Those things were burned by the yang energy that continuously spread from Tuoba Wushen's body, and finally turned into the material that constituted the floating island under his feet.

But at this moment, no monster rushed out of the vortex.

Even the giant beast just now could not withstand the aftermath of the fight between the Black Jade Skeleton and Tuoba Wushen, and died suddenly and sank to the bottom of the sea.

Tuoba Wushen knew very well that if he left now, the things that were sprayed out of the vortex would definitely not be able to turn into floating islands under his feet. There was an extremely cold feeling in the black oil.

This feeling was only felt when he went to the sixth level area.

The feeling there gave him was that it was a completely different world, a world that was totally unsuitable for living people to survive in. Those ghosts would obviously be enhanced in all aspects there.

So much so that even when he was firing at full power, some ghosts could still withstand the burning of the scorching yang energy for a while before dissipating.

Just like the monsters that appeared on the sea this time, at worst they can last for a short period of time before dying.

Of course, this is also because the monsters are not too close to him.

He is a radiation source. The closer you are to him, the stronger the yang energy radiation you receive. When you are dozens of miles away, it is already very weak.

But these dozens of miles are only the range where the radiation of Yang energy can cause harm to ghosts. If it is farther away, ordinary ghosts may just feel uncomfortable and will not be harmed.

If you just feel it, just look at it, if there are no tall buildings or mountains blocking the view, you can feel it a little or see the red light in the sky even if you are a hundred miles away.

Tuoba Wushen felt in his pocket and took out a cell phone, which had changed shape and had a charred layer on the surface.

At this time, he raised his head and looked towards the east, and vaguely realized that something seemed to be wrong...

He was on the East China Sea at the moment. When he looked towards the east, he could vaguely see the eastern horizon without any obstruction. There seemed to be some signs of dawn.

Is it almost dawn?

Tuoba Wushen looked at his phone and was shocked. It was already past 12 o'clock?

It's the end of the month?

He didn't feel anything at all, everything was going very smoothly, and when he felt it again at this moment, he seemed to be even stronger than his previous strongest time.

Then he looked at his cell phone. It was broken. If his wife called him and found out that he was out and his phone was turned off...

But the next moment, he put away the broken phone.

What are you afraid of? He is so strong now.

He touched his chest, feeling the power flowing through it.

This is not the power from the God of War at the end of the month, but the power that he can still use for cultivation when he has not transformed.

The confidence this thing gave him was even stronger than that of the God of War at the end of the month.

It's still early, so he now has at least twenty hours to experience it, and it will always be a peak experience, which is more than the peak time of all previous transformations combined.

He came to the side of the whirlpool, and the hot yang energy emanating from his body continued to impact the whirlpool. The speed at which the black oil substance gushed out of the whirlpool slowed down a lot, and the floating island under his feet was still slowly expanding and thickening.

Tuoba Wushen sat next to him and began to feel the pattern in his chest.

At this moment, the evolution of the pattern is the most perfect. He must remember this feeling and adapt to it. After the transformation is over, he can continue to use the feelings and gains at this moment and continue to become stronger through his own efforts.

The clouds in the sky slowly dissipated, and the moonlight fell here. Wen Yan, who was peeking at the screen from behind, could naturally "see" the situation here.

He didn't care about it anymore. The vortex had not disappeared yet. Since it could withstand the power of Tuoba Wushen, the standard of the ceremony might be a bit high.

Of course, the biggest possibility is that there is something on the other side that is continuously supporting the vortex and preventing it from disappearing.

In this situation, Tuoba Wushen definitely cannot leave.

Wen Yan took out his cell phone and the black box gave the news that the island country was holding a Hundred Demons Night Parade of even higher standard than last year. Without Tuoba Wushen there, it was naturally unstoppable.

But I don't know what they did over there, and one group of ghosts started fighting with another group of ghosts, and only then were they able to barely control the situation and prevent it from escalating further.

If the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons continues to expand in scale and even impacts the largest city on the island nation, then none of the surrounding countries will be able to sit still. No matter what they think or say, the surrounding countries will inevitably intervene.

The Nanyang Alliance had millions of ghosts passing through at once, and they didn't even hurt anyone, but the entire Nanyang Alliance is still feeling a chill in their spine.

If the largest city in the island nation were to experience a large-scale Night Parade of a Hundred Demons, and if this continued to grow out of control and grow larger, then it would be no surprise that the city would become a kingdom of the underworld on earth.

At least Shenzhou certainly cannot accept the sudden appearance of a netherworld kingdom next to their home. That place is already dark enough and cannot really become the underworld.

Wen Yan carefully looked at the information provided by the black box, from the overall situation to some details, and after getting a general understanding, he put away his phone.

Just like Tuoba Wushen, he certainly cannot leave the intersection now.

He had previously thought that when Tuoba Wushen made his move in the East China Sea, someone at the intersection might take the opportunity to do something, but there was no unusual movement in the last few hours.

This made Wen Yan certain that the intersection itself was a cover, and the focus of those guys on the opposite side was the East China Sea.

And those guys definitely don't do this just to stir up trouble, but have longer-term plans, in order to first find an entry point, a foothold, and then consider what to do next.

If they just wanted to stir up trouble like the brainless, violent and vicious evil spirits without considering the future, there was really no need for them to choose the East China Sea to stir up trouble.

When they were sure that the "Tuoba Wushen", who was most likely dead, had been lured to the intersection, they finally revealed their true purpose.

The East China Sea should be the place where the most power is gathered.

At the intersection, most people are thinking "If it succeeds, that's great. If not, then just be a target."

Now that the East China Sea has suffered a setback and Tuoba Wushen has been pinned down there, based on the information Wen Yan has currently obtained, the intersection becomes the best choice.

He put away his phone, took some cakes and milk from his refrigerator, picked up two sticks of incense, and left the underworld.

The Taoist Bu Shi was still guarding the edge of the road. Looking at the food handed over by Wen Yan, he felt quite strange.

I guess only Wen Yan would feel that eating in the underworld is a very normal thing.

But when he smelled the fragrance of the pastries, he felt inexplicably hungry.

After getting it, I realized that it was still warm. Could it be that Wen Yan had specially heated it up in the microwave?

After eating something and drinking some hot milk, I felt much more comfortable. A warm feeling was slowly spreading in my abdomen.

This is not an illusion, because Wen Yan also added yang energy to the food.

Without paying attention to the Taoist priest's food, he saw that Wen Yan did not release his yang energy this time and hid his body.

Wen Yan lit the incense with his Yang energy, blessed it with Yang energy, and stuck it on the roadside. "Thank you all for your help today. I hope you will accept this as a small token of my appreciation."

The Taoist Bu Shi was eating and watching Wen Yan doing these things in a methodical manner. He remained silent.

According to the knowledge and experience he had gained, the ghosts here were all unconscious, and even if you talked to them for a year, they would not react at all.

But now he can see that the souls wandering on this endless underworld road will slow down when passing by here.

Those ghosts will actively avoid Wen Yan, and the wisps of smoke from the burning incense sticks will float up and dissipate along the path to the underworld.

He saw some ghosts that he was 100% sure were unconscious, and they would nod slightly as if to express their gratitude when passing by the intersection.

This was definitely not an illusion. He had been squatting here for a long time, and not a single ghost would turn their head towards him when passing by.

"Don't be confused. They really don't have any consciousness. But being unconscious doesn't mean they are like stone."

Without paying attention to the Taoist, the voice of the ghost wearing a bamboo hat floated into his ears.

The Taoist priest watched Wen Yan, carrying the cloth bag on his back, walk straight across the intersection and into the darkness ahead.

Wen Yan came to the end of the dead end road, lit another stick of incense and stuck it on the side of the road.

"If anyone accidentally enters this place and can never return, please have a taste of the incense of the human world."

He could hear the sound of water ahead of him, he had been there many times before and could go in the water, but he was also sure that there would be many, many paths ahead into the darkness.

He waited here quietly, wanting to follow the way that Bu Shidao had done before and guard the place.

If there are no monsters here to repair the road, then it is very likely that this road may need to be connected to the other side.

Wen Yan waited and waited, but nothing happened.

I listened to the sound of water, but didn't feel any changes.

On the other side, there was a gloomy place with a dark grey sky. A large number of ghost-like monsters were scattered all over the lifeless dark grey land.

A monster with a red face, fangs and three eyes on its forehead looked down at several ghosts in ancient costumes kneeling below.

He gritted his teeth, flames flashed in his eyes, and the aura emanating from his body was swaying wildly.

All the other monsters stayed far away, only the few ghosts kneeling on the ground were trembling.

"My king, my king, please give us another chance..."

The three-eyed monster laughed in anger.

"Now I finally know why you were executed."

The three-eyed monster opened his mouth, and that big mouth instantly expanded to more than a person's height, and swallowed up the ghost kneeling in the front in one bite.

The ghost was swallowed into the stomach, and a face of pain and wailing appeared on the belly of the three-eyed monster. Then the wailing was gradually suppressed by more wailing sounds and disappeared in the belly of the three-eyed monster.

After a moment, the three-eyed monster opened his mouth and spit out the ghost again, but all its breath disappeared, its eyes were empty, and it had no consciousness.

The remaining empty shell was soon dragged away by other monsters.

The three-eyed monster turned around and behind him was an endless expanse of black water with no reflection at all on the surface.

A road extends from the edge all the way into the black water. According to the plan, this is naturally used to connect with the road on the opposite side.

Those ghosts were once craftsmen who built bridges and roads, and one of them was even an official.

Repair both sides at the same time, and then connect them in the middle. Anyone who is not stupid knows that this saves time.

Moreover, paving the road from the other side is more dangerous, and the time should be shortened as much as possible, so that the success rate is higher and the risk is lower.

The idea is indeed correct.

But the problem is that there is a problem with the docking.

Didn't connect.

At the docking point, I didn’t see the road on the other side, but I didn’t know what kind of weird place it was docking at.

There are a lot of ghosts in that ghost place. Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that it not only contains yang energy, but also contains extremely strange power.

When many monsters approached, they were not burned to death by the yang energy, but were infected by the strange power. After a long time, they directly collapsed and could not even complete the sacrifice before death.

"Your Majesty, we have already reported to Lord Wang that there is something wrong with the direction of the road and we cannot go this way, but he refused to listen and insisted that he was right."

A ghost kneeling on the ground bravely said something.

After killing the guy who claimed to be an official from the Ministry of Industry, the three-eyed monster calmed down a little.

"What do you think happened?"

"Lord Wang never personally built bridges or roads during his lifetime. We are of low status and he took our souls away, so we naturally dared not resist. We couldn't even talk about these things before."

"Repair it immediately. If you can't fix it, you will be like him."

"My lord, this..." The ghost who was speaking was very anxious and wanted to say no.

The three-eyed monster didn't listen and waved his hand. Several monsters came forward and drove these ghosts onto the road that extended into the black water.

A few ghosts were forced to walk along the road.

When they were almost at the end, the leading ghost said to the monsters following behind.

"I'm going to investigate ahead. You guys follow me."

The monster behind him did not move forward, having suffered losses before.

These monsters don't care about death and will even sacrifice themselves before dying.

In their understanding, sacrifice means obtaining another way of survival, which is equivalent to not dying.

But before, many monsters collapsed directly when they connected with something on the road, and they couldn’t even offer sacrifices. For these monsters, this was the death they understood.

Without a king watching over you, or someone superior to you, there's no hope.

The monsters didn't follow, and they didn't think there was any need to keep an eye on those ghosts going to dangerous places.

A few ghosts continued to move forward, and when they reached the end of the road, they saw a piece of land.

They felt the yang energy here.

The leading ghost couldn't help shedding tears, and drops of grayish-white tears fell.

"The time has finally come for me to be freed!"

The ghosts following behind him were more excited than each other.

"What do those monsters know?"

"We are the only ones who really do the work. That dog official surnamed Wang bullied us when he was alive and caused us to be beheaded. He is still bullying us after his death. After so many years, he still doesn't know how to really build bridges and roads."

Several ghosts felt the yang energy here, or rather, the remaining yang energy, which was fiery yet gentle. There was also another kind of power remaining in the air.

When the road was being built before, Lord Wang naturally didn't care about the work. The real work, the ones who led those monsters to carry out the work and determined how the construction was done on the front line were still these ghosts.

The leading ghost vaguely felt that power, so he quietly changed his direction a little bit.

A slight mistake can lead to a huge error. The place they finally connected to was not where the three-eyed monster wanted to go at all, but the destination of these ghosts that no one had ever looked at seriously.

"We are going to be free, free..."

The leading ghost brought a few companions and moved forward in the direction they felt. They began to hear the faint sound of scriptures. The remaining yang energy in the air was particularly obvious to ghosts like them who had not felt yang energy for many, many years.

They came to an open space and looked forward. On a stone platform in front of them, the remaining yang energy was the strongest. The faint sound of scriptures, along with the remaining yang energy, began to take effect.

They walked forward and sat in front of the stone platform.

In a trance, it seemed as if I saw a short-haired young man who walked towards me every day, then sat there with a gentle expression, chanting sutras in a low voice to pray for the salvation of souls. The yang energy there was like the morning sun, slowly spreading out.

A large number of ghosts are saved here every day. Over time, a large amount of yang energy remains in this place where there should not be yang energy. The scriptures that are recited every day begin to echo here continuously along with the yang energy that has settled here.

This power is actually very weak, but this ghost's desire to seek liberation is too strong, and it has not felt the yang energy for too long.

The faint echo was finally felt by an ordinary craftsman today, causing the road that was supposed to lead to the underworld to deviate a little bit, which was imperceptible.
