Supreme Devouring God

Little Fairy said: ”You don’t need to be too flustered, I felt something wrong when you first entered this place, especially with that guide Yang Xiao.”

Qin Chen hurriedly asked: ”Did you discover anything?”

This was too bizarre, and now Lin Songyun was also missing, making him very worried.

Little Fairy said: ”No discoveries for now, just know that the Yinfeng earlier was actually only seen by you.”

”You mean there wasn’t any Yinfeng at all?” Qin Chen was taken aback.

Little Fairy said: ”Yes, and I must also tell you that the person you were holding was likely not Lin Songyun. You probably separated from the main group early on, before the Yinfeng.”

”Of course, it might not just be you; possibly everyone has separated from the main group.”

Little Fairy’s words made Qin Chen feel uneasy.

This sent a chill down his spine.

The person he held wasn’t Lin Songyun; could it have been a ghost?

Little Fairy quickly said: ”It’s very possible you encountered a ghost.”

”A ghost?”

Qin Chen’s eyebrows furrowed; such paranormal matters truly gave a strong sense of the unknown.

At that moment, Qin Chen suddenly saw a shadow appearing and disappearing there, instantly giving him a strong sense of vigilance, and he immediately used the Little Void Breaking Technique.

”Hiss!”

Before Qin Chen could see clearly.

The shadow lunged at Qin Chen, uttering a sharp sound that was very unsettling.

”Swish!”

Qin Chen drew the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade and struck forward.

The Power of Great Dao erupted!

”Puff!”

Qin Chen felt as if his strike pierced into sand, emitting that fine friction sound, and the shadow before him turned into a cloud of black smoke and then vanished.

”What is this ghostly thing?”

Qin Chen’s eyebrows knitted together.

Little Fairy suddenly realized: ”Turns out it’s a ghost! I understand now!”

Qin Chen asked: ”A ghost?”

Little Fairy said: ”A ghost is a very special creature, you might consider it a Demon Beast, but it’s born in a very unique environment, with many varieties.”

”Back in Ancient Times, the Demon Sect used ’Ghost Water’ to refine ghosts, creating a ghost army.”

”Do you recall the Hell Demon Clan you encountered in the Telekinesis Origin Realm earlier?”

The Hell Demon Clan, along with the Half-faced Demon Clan and War Demon Clan, were known as the Three Great Demon Clans of the Primordial World.

They were the most dangerous clans among the Demon races.

Surpassing the Hundred Demons.

Qin Chen nodded: ”Could ghosts have any relation to the Hell Demon Clan?”

Back in the Telekinesis Origin Realm, Qin Chen also experienced a series of bizarre incidents, only to find out it was the work of a Hell Demon from the Hell Demon Clan.

The Hell Demon Clan was very adept at creating illusions, with illusions being incredibly realistic, hard for ordinary people to break, and reportedly, they could even make people lose their Spiritual Wisdom, allowing them to be manipulated.

In the end, it was Shen Mirui who descended and killed that Hell Demon.

Little Fairy said: ”There’s no direct relation, but ghosts are very similar to Hell Demons from the Hell Demon Clan; they also have the ability to create illusions, and they can directly possess humans.”

Qin Chen narrowed his eyes: ”Are you saying that Yang Xiao was actually possessed by a ghost earlier?”

Little Fairy said: ”That’s likely the case, meaning Yang Xiao brought everyone into this ancient land with the intent to wipe everyone out.”

Qin Chen’s face turned dark.

Such danger—could Lin Songyun handle it?

He was extremely worried.

Little Fairy said: ”Qin Chen, you had better figure out why these ghosts are here; they certainly aren’t here for no reason.”

”There must be some cause, maybe even a powerful figure behind these ghosts from the Evil Dao.”

Qin Chen pondered for a moment and said: ”But I’m at a loss right now, with no information at all; I can only try my luck, yet these ghosts are so strange that I can’t guarantee complete safety.”

Despite feeling anxious.

Indeed, he had no way.

Just praying that Lin Songyun wouldn’t get into danger.

Moreover, if Little Fairy’s guess was correct and these ghosts were created by a mighty figure from the Evil Dao, then everyone entering the Nine Palaces Ancient Land would be in danger, including him.

Suddenly, Qin Chen’s Wind Sound Divine Ear twitched; he heard unusual sounds coming from ahead.

Using Little Void Breaking Technique, Qin Chen’s vision was enhanced, revealing ghosts wandering in front.

Moreover, they were coming his way.

They were probably alarmed by the commotion earlier.

”Let’s go!”

Without wasting a word, Qin Chen left immediately; these ghosts could create illusions and possess people, he couldn’t treat them like ordinary Demon Beasts.

To Qin Chen’s dismay.

The farther he ran, not only did the number of ghosts not decrease, they increased instead.

He felt like he had stumbled into a ghost lair.

Little Fairy said: ”Qin Chen, your luck is too good; the direction and position you went is just the gathering place of the ghosts. If this continues, you’ll likely be surrounded by these ghosts.”

Qin Chen’s face turned green: ”How was I supposed to know this is such rotten luck.”

Seeing more and more ghosts chasing behind him, Qin Chen was extremely distressed.

He continued to escape for a period.

Arriving at a complex mountainous terrain.

As Qin Chen was catching his breath.

Suddenly a ghost appeared from beside a human-sized greenstone in front and then charged at Qin Chen, giving him a fright.

”Truly ghostly apperance!”

Qin Chen drew the Bloodthirsty Demon Blade, slashing forward, simultaneously stepping back swiftly.

This ghost wasn’t weak; one slash from Qin Chen didn’t kill it.

Qin Chen didn’t pause.

There was still a group of ghosts chasing behind!

He immediately dashed in another direction: ”This is truly haunting.”

Little Fairy said: ”Qin Chen, there’s a way to make these ghosts stay away from you, are you willing to try? Of course, I must say, it’s just theoretically possible, whether it actually works, I don’t know.”

”Spill it.”

Qin Chen said while running.

Little Fairy said: ”Anything ghostly and evil is countered by Thunder; you might try breaking through Tribulation Transformation Realm Third Layer here, then using the Heavenly Tribulation to drive them away.”

Qin Chen was taken aback: ”Can this really work?”

Little Fairy shrugged: ”That’s why I’m saying it’s theoretically possible, just for your reference.”

Qin Chen looked at the unrelenting ghost chase behind him, gritted his teeth: ”I have no choice, let’s try it.”

He immediately entered the God Devouring Crystal space, letting the God Devouring Crystal roll into a crevice in the mountain.

Those ghosts chased nearby but didn’t see Qin Chen anymore, yet they didn’t leave, carefully searching for him.

Inside the God Devouring Crystal space, Qin Chen took out the Eight-Colored Water Lotus, sat beside the Time Crystal, took a deep breath, and prepared to use the Eight-Colored Water Lotus to break through the Tribulation Transformation Realm Third Layer.

If successful, Qin Chen would face the final layer of Heavenly Tribulation.
