Bai Rong explained, "However, once you step into the ghost realm, you must be careful not to reveal your human identity, otherwise you will be in big trouble."

Shiji nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, I will be careful."

Bai Rong sighed, as if he had a thousand words to say but couldn't express them.

Finally, he just patted Shiji's shoulder gently: "Well, I won't say much, take care."

Shiji clasped his fists and said goodbye: "Then I'll leave first." After that, he turned and left the Bai family.

Bai Zhi followed closely, wanting to see Shi Ji off. She looked at Shi Ji's tall and straight back, with mixed emotions surging in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

Shiji noticed the movement behind him and tilted his head slightly: "What's wrong?"

Bai Zhi choked up and said, "Thank you... Thank you, Shiji."

Shiji smiled, and that smile was warm and sunny: "Why are you being polite to me? Go back and take good care of your father." After saying that, he turned around and strode towards the gate of Bai Mansion.

Bai Zhi shouted from behind: "Shiji, the ghost realm is different from the human world, you must be careful! Also, I'm waiting for you at the Bai family, you must come back safely!"

Shiji turned around and gave Baizhi a firm smile: "I will, I will come back as soon as possible." After that, he waved at Baizhi, and then disappeared behind the gate of Bai Mansion.

Bai Zhi watched Shi Ji leave until his figure completely disappeared from her sight, then she wiped the tears from her face.

At this time, her mother Lin Ge came over.

"Daughter, who is the young man named Shiji?" Lin Ge asked curiously.

Bai Zhi took a deep breath and calmed down: "He is my savior."

Lin Ge nodded, without asking any more questions, and said earnestly: "He is a good young man, you should cherish him."

Bai Zhi's cheeks flushed slightly, and she whispered, "I know."

Lin Ge looked at her daughter's shy look and understood what was going on. She smiled and gently patted Bai Zhi's shoulder: "Go, daughter, take good care of your father. Mom knows that you know your limits."

Bai Zhi nodded and hurried back to the Bai family. Lin Ge looked at her daughter's back as she left, her heart filled with relief and expectation. She knew that her daughter had grown up and had her own judgment and choices.

In the attic, Bai Rong was sitting quietly recuperating. Bai Zhi walked in and asked softly, "Father, how do you feel now?"

Bai Rong slowly opened his eyes, feeling the changes in his body, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Much better, I should be able to recover after resting for a while."

Bai Zhi felt relieved after hearing this: "That's good."

Bai Rong looked at his daughter with eyes full of love: "Bai Zhi, you are a good child. Shi Ji is our Bai family's benefactor, you should not let him down."

Bai Zhi lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Father, Shiji...he already has someone he likes, he won't marry me."

Bai Rong was immediately displeased when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about? I can see that Shiji has feelings for you. As long as you work hard, he will definitely accept you."

Bai Zhi shook her head, with a determined light in her eyes: "Father, you are wrong. He only has friendship for me, not love. However, I will spend the rest of my life to repay his kindness."

Bai Rong looked at his daughter's determined eyes and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He knew that his daughter had grown up and had her own ideas. In the end, he just sighed softly: "Forget it, decide your own affairs. But remember, no matter what path you choose, you must go on firmly."

Bai Zhi nodded, her heart full of gratitude and determination. She knew that she still had a long way to go, but as long as Shi Ji was there, she had the motivation to move forward.

After leaving the Bai family, Shiji came to the entrance of the ghostland according to the location he sensed. He stood in front of the dark entrance with a strange light flashing in his eyes.

"Is this the entrance to the ghost realm?" Shiji was full of doubts and curiosity.

However, he did not retreat, but resolutely stepped into the unknown territory.

As soon as he entered the ghostland, Shiji felt a strong cold wind. The cold wind was much stronger than that outside, as if it could penetrate a person's bone marrow. He tightened his clothes, took a deep breath, and then walked forward firmly.

The structure of the ghost realm is completely different from that of the human world. Shiji walked forward cautiously, carefully observing the surrounding environment. He found that this place seemed to be an independent space, full of weirdness and mystery.

At this moment, an old and deep voice suddenly sounded in Shiji's ears: "You are finally here."

Shiji was startled and looked around vigilantly, but he did not find any trace of anyone.

"Who are you? Where are you?" he asked loudly.

The voice sounded again: "Friend, can you help us?" This time the voice was clearer, but the source could not be determined.

Shiji frowned slightly, he could feel a force slowly approaching him. He stared at the front, trying to find the source of that force.

However, the surroundings were still quiet and dark, with only the cold wind and the occasional strange laughter breaking the silence.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Shiji asked again, with a hint of impatience and vigilance in his voice.

At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of Shiji.

The black shadow was wearing a grayish-white robe, with the sleeves and hem stained red with blood. He had two sharp fangs on his face, and looked extremely scary. His eyes were glowing with a faint green light, staring closely at Shiji.

Shiji was shocked and quickly took a few steps back: "Who are you? Why are you here?" There was a hint of trembling and fear in his voice.

The shadow did not answer Shiji's question, but let out a sharp and piercing laugh. The laugh was as creepy as the howl of a night owl.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Shiji asked again, with a hint of anger in his voice.

The shadow suddenly disappeared from the spot, and when it reappeared, it was already behind Shiji. His speed was so fast that it seemed like he had teleported.

Shiji was horrified. He never thought that this strange-looking guy could teleport. He turned around and tried to escape from this dangerous place.

However, the shadow followed closely behind him. His withered hands tightly grasped Shiji's neck: "You killed my daughter, and you still dare to ask who I am?" His voice was hoarse and unpleasant, as if it came from the depths of hell.

Shiji's heart trembled, and he finally understood. It turned out that the black shadow was a wronged ghost! He was horrified and quickly used spiritual magic to dispel the black mist wrapped around his body.

However, the wronged spirit seemed to have seen through his actions. He let out a hoarse and unpleasant laugh: "Boy, you are so brave that you dare to use spiritual arts to dispel my resentment." After saying that, his eyes flashed with a strange cold light, "Today, even if you escape from the ghost realm, you will not survive." Shiji's heart sank, he knew that he was in big trouble. However, he did not give up. He looked at the wronged spirit coldly: "Humph, you can try your best to see if you can keep me here." Although his tone was calm, his eyes revealed firm belief and determination. He knew that he could not just succumb to the threat of this wronged spirit. He had to use his own strength and wisdom to defeat this seemingly invincible enemy.

The man in black robe sneered.

"Young man, you are indeed a rare genius, but unfortunately, the opponent you met is also an outstanding genius."

As he said this, he secretly exerted force with his fingers, and wisps of black resentment filled with malice followed his fingertips like snakes, trying to invade Shiji's body.

"Is that all you can do?" Shiji touched the ball of resentment with her index finger contemptuously, as if she had touched something insignificant.

"You..." The black-robed man's pupils dilated instantly, his face full of disbelief.

A golden light flashed on Shiji's fingers. The light was like a sharp arrow, piercing through the resentment and shooting straight into the body of the man in black robe.

The black-robed man's body trembled violently, with a look of pain in his eyes. He wanted to resist, but found that he was completely unable to move, as if he was tightly bound by invisible chains.

"You are a Buddhist." The man in black robe widened his eyes and stared at Shiji in horror, as if he had seen something terrible.

Shiji raised a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth: "It seems that your knowledge is really limited. Can only Buddhist disciples have Buddha's light? What do you think?"

Before he finished speaking, he flicked his fingers lightly, and the resentment instantly turned into nothingness and disappeared into the air.

“No, this is impossible…” The black-robed man’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"So, those little tricks of yours are nothing in front of me. I advise you to know the situation and act accordingly. Otherwise, you will end up in a miserable situation."

Shiji glanced indifferently at the man in black robe and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Just when Shiji was about to leave, the man in black robe suddenly shouted loudly.

Shiji paused, turned around, and looked at the man in black robe impatiently: "Do you want to die?"

He didn't have time to waste with this guy; there were more important things waiting for him to do.

"I have died once, and now I am a ghost in the ghostland. Naturally, I don't want to die again, but I want to know who you are and why you are here?"

The man in black robe asked anxiously, as if this was the issue he was most concerned about at the moment.

Shiji sneered: "You want to know? Then tell me why you are here first, and then I will tell you who I am."

He never likes beating around the bush and prefers to be direct.

"I'm here to find my daughter." The man in black robe answered without hesitation, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

"Looking for your daughter? Although I don't know the details, I can feel that in your memory, she must have been taken away, right?" Shi Ji sneered, "Since you miss her so much, you should go find the murderer and take revenge."

“No…” The man in black robe shook his head painfully, his face full of despair.

"She is no longer alive." There was deep sadness and anger in his voice when he said this.

His emotions were complicated, including pain, anger, and deep hatred.

"What did you say? She died? When did it happen?" Shiji frowned and asked in surprise.

"I don't know, I really don't know." The man in black robe hugged his head and curled up into a ball, seeming to be experiencing great pain.

Seeing the black-robed man's appearance, Shiji's brows furrowed more and more. At this moment, an evil force suddenly burst out from the black-robed man's body, instantly enveloping Shiji.

"No, he lost control."

Shiji's face changed drastically, and he immediately used his skills to resist the evil force. However, the black-robed man's body began to change, and his skin gradually festered, as if something was raging wildly in his body.

Shiji didn't know much about ghost cultivation, so he didn't know what happened to the man in black robe. But from the evil aura, he could feel that the man in black robe had fallen into madness.

No matter what, Shiji couldn't just sit there and watch. He put his hands together and muttered something.

"Ten thousand swords return to the clan!"

As he gave the order, the surrounding space suddenly shook. Then, countless long swords appeared out of thin air, spinning rapidly around Shiji, forming a ring-shaped halo. The halo contained infinite murderous intent and hostility, as if it could cut off all the evil in the world.

This move was exactly the unique skill that Shiji had learned from Master Tongtian, and it had been kept secret. It was just the right move to clear the resentment in the black-robed man at this moment.

"Pfft!"

With a slight sound, a blood flower bloomed in the air. The blood dripped onto the ground and quickly spread. In a blink of an eye, most of the mountain was dyed blood red.

Fine beads of sweat oozed from Shiji's forehead, and the face of the man in black robe gradually became clear. The resentment in his body had been completely eliminated, leaving only a pure soul.

"Thank you for your help. My name is Luo Qi." The man in black robe said gratefully.

"Huh, my efforts were finally paid off." Seeing that Luo Qi had regained consciousness, Shiji breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"You... who are you?" Luo Qi stared at Shiji, his eyes full of confusion and awe.

"My name is Shiji. By the way, you said you were looking for your daughter. What's going on?" Shiji asked curiously.

"This is what happened..." Luo Qi recounted in detail how he entered the ghost realm after his death and how he was trapped here.

"I see. Where is your daughter now? I can help you look for her."

Although Luo Qi's strength is not strong, he has lived in the ghost area for so long that he should be familiar with the terrain and conditions here. With him as a guide, perhaps he can find his daughter faster. (End of this chapter)
