"Brother Lin comes to Jiuyou City for the first time. There are some things I still need to remind you."

Hua Qianshu hesitated again and again and said to Lin Bai: "After nightfall, stay in the inn as long as you can. Even if you want to go out, try to go to a place with many people."

“Never go into some back alley alone.”

The reason why Hua Qianshu hesitated about these reminders was because Ji Canghai also knew about Jiuyou City, but he did not inform Lin Bai.

Hua Qianshu was not sure whether Ji Canghai made an accidental mistake or if he deliberately did not tell Lin Bai.

Therefore, he hesitated and told the truth.

"Why is this?" Lin Bai asked curiously, "Is there anything strange about Jiuyou City after dark?"

Hua Qianshu whispered: "That's hard to say."

"There are too many weird things in Jiuyou City. Many warriors leave their homes rashly after dark and disappear mysteriously the next day."

"There are always rumors of hauntings circulating in the city."

"Haunted?" Lin Bai smiled disdainfully and said, "Brother Hua, you and I are both Taoist warriors, and we are both at the Taiyi Daoguo realm. How can we still believe in these ghosts and gods?"

Hua Qianshu shook his head and said, "I didn't believe it at first, but it did happen, and I have experienced it myself."

Lin Bai asked curiously: "Is there really a ghost?"

Hua Qianshu frowned and shook his head: "I'm not sure if it's a ghost, but it's indeed very weird."

"Years ago, when I first came to Jiuyou City to worship at the Fifth Temple, I drank too much with some friends and never returned to my residence late at night."

"Then something weird happened."

"A burst of white mist suddenly rolled up in the city and carried us away."

"Fortunately, I suddenly woke up at the last moment and tried my best to escape."

"As for my few friends... almost none of them survived, and they all disappeared mysteriously."

Lin Bai raised his eyebrows, there was such a strange thing happening in Jiuyou City.

But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that it doesn’t make sense?

What kind of existence is Jiuyou City? It is the headquarters of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, and the Elders Council of the Nine Nether Demon Palace sits in the city.

Although Lin Bai did not know what the strength of the elders in the Council of Elders of the Nine Nether Demon Palace was, judging from the strength shown by Ji Canghai, the elders in the Council of Elders of the Nine Nether Demon Palace were at least in the Hunyuan Daoguo realm. of cultivation.

With such an expert in charge of Jiuyou City, how could he tolerate such weird things happening repeatedly?

Lin Bai asked: "Does the Council of Elders of the Nine Nether Demon Palace not care about such a weird thing?"

Hua Qianshu still frowned, "No."

"No?" Lin Bai was stunned for a moment.

Hua Qianshu said: "This matter is common in Jiuyou City, but every time it has been reported to the Council of Elders, the Council of Elders has not come up with any feasible plan."

"Over time, this matter will be settled."

Lin Bai lowered his head, thinking a lot in his mind.

It seems that even the Council of Elders can't solve this kind of thing?

what on earth is it?

"Anyway..." Hua Qianshu changed the subject and said, "Brother Lin should try not to leave the inn after nightfall. It's best not to provoke some things."

Lin Bai smiled and said nothing more.

After having dinner with Hua Qianshu, Hua Qianshu booked a room for Lin Bai in the inn.

After all, as the Holy Son of Plum Blossom Villa and the Daoist disciple of Jiuyou Demon Palace, Hua Qianshu has no shortage of spiritual stones.

Lin Bai also readily agreed and stayed there.

He also knew that Hua Qianshu was willing to help simply because he wanted to keep an eye on his whereabouts.

After Lin Bai stayed at the inn, Hua Qianshu did not leave, but also stayed next door to Lin Bai.

It seemed that Hua Qianshu really wanted to target Lin Bai to death.

After night fell in Jiuyou City, the luminous stones throughout the city began to dim, and bursts of strange white mist filled the city, making the entire city look a bit eerie.

It's like a living hell city.

And gusts of strange wind blew through the city, bringing a bit of coolness, which made Lin Bai shudder standing at the window.

After nightfall, except for a few lively night markets, the other streets in the city are almost deserted. It seems that even the warriors of Jiuyou City dare not go out at night easily.

Although the inn where Lin Bai and Hua Qianshu stayed was not close to the main street in Jiuyou City, it was not very remote.

But after nightfall, except for the two red lanterns hanging at the door of the inn, the street in front was empty. Only the cold white mist was crawling on the ground as if it were alive.

Lin Bai stood at the window, looking down at the block in front of the inn, and then raised his head to look at the lively market a few blocks away.

All of this is filled with an indescribable weirdness.

"It's really like hell, extremely spooky and terrifying."

Lin Bai shook his head repeatedly. He wanted to close the window and go back to rest, but the moment Lin Bai turned around, he suddenly felt that the white fog flowing in the city seemed to be a little thicker, and it was also wrapped with a strong cold air.

"The fog is getting thicker?"

Lin Bai opened his Shura Dharma Eyes and looked at the street.

The white mist at the beginning was just a few strands, floating in the air with the wind.

But now, the white mist has condensed into a thick layer on the ground. Even without using the Magic Eye Technique, Lin Bai could clearly sense that the white mist had increased.

After Lin Bai opened his Shura Dharma Eyes, he suddenly saw human figures moving around in the white mist, like ghosts.

"Is there really a ghost?"

Lin Bai was stunned for a moment.

For mortals, the theory of ghosts and gods has always been strange and terrifying.

But for cultivating warriors, the so-called ghosts are nothing more than the souls of warriors mutating due to some reasons after their death.

The first ghosts will be wandering soul-like beings who will only wander unconsciously in a certain area.

As they absorb more and more of the essence of the sun and moon and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, they will gradually develop spiritual wisdom. If the opportunity is good, they may be able to obtain the method of cultivation and embark on the path of cultivation.

And the ghosts and ghosts who step into the path of spiritual practice are no ordinary wandering souls.

In the demon world and the spiritual world, it is called ghost cultivation.

The "underworld", one of the four major interfaces in the void, is where ghost cultivators gather.

"Help, help..."

Just as Lin Bai was staring at the white mist flowing on the ground and lost in thought, suddenly there were calls for help.

He woke up immediately, raised his eyes, and looked for the source of his cry for help.

But they discovered...the cry for help didn't come from above the block, but from Lin Bai's next door, Hua Qianshu's room.

"Hua Qianshu?" Lin Bai was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, he saw Hua Qianshu in the next room falling out of the window uncontrollably and falling into the white mist. (End of chapter)
