Wu Shattered Star River

Ghost God Mountain truly has many mountains, and they are all steep and towering peaks.

Ghost God Mountain is known as the Million Mountains, and although that's an exaggeration, it probably has at least a hundred thousand.

Ghost God Mountain also has a great number of caves. Every mountain has caves inside, interconnected in all directions, like ant nests.

Qing Xuzi led Jiang Han through the caves of the mountains, occasionally burrowing underground, rarely traveling outside.

In the underground passages, Jiang Han occasionally sensed alien race warriors, but they would avoid them, or Qing Xuzi would lead him away.

Jiang Han also discovered some divine formations within the tunnels. Qing Xuzi told him that if they encountered a place sealed with a divine formation, it would be the secluded cultivation site of some rogue cultivator.

Qing Xuzi told him not to disturb places with divine formations, because no one knew whether a Dao Peering Realm expert or a Dao Entry Realm powerhouse was in seclusion inside.

Perhaps… even a Dao Harmonization Realm powerhouse might be in seclusion inside. You never know.

The rogue cultivators of Ghost God Mountain have an unwritten rule: never enter another's cave dwelling without permission, otherwise, it's the greatest offense, provoking the cave's owner to rage and fight you to the death.

Traveling through the mountains and underground was indeed much safer, and they were basically not attacked by enemies along the way.

However, the travel speed was naturally slower, and they hadn't reached Ghost City after traveling for most of the day.

"Heavenly Chaos Sovereign, it's almost night. Let's stop here and rest for the night!"

Qing Xuzi suddenly stopped. Jiang Han frowned and glanced outside through the cave, discovering that it was indeed completely dark. It had been dim before, but there was still some light, but now it was pitch black.

Day and night made little difference to Jiang Han, so he asked, "Is it unsafe at night?"

"Yes!"

Qing Xuzi nodded and said, "There are many underground caves beneath this Ghost God Mountain Range, which breed some soul-form monsters. These soul-form monsters come out at night."

Jiang Han's eyes flickered, and he asked, "These vengeful spirits attack the soul, right?"

"Yes!"

Qing Xuzi nodded and said, "Soul-form monsters naturally attack the soul. They also create illusions and affect the warrior's soul, driving you mad. They can even directly invade a warrior's soul, becoming stronger by devouring it."

Jiang Han was slightly relieved. He feared soul attacks the least. He had a super-grade divine artifact, and his soul defense had never had any problems.

Of course!

Since Qing Xuzi suggested resting for the night, he wouldn't go out to take risks.

They sat cross-legged in a small cave in the mountain, and Qing Xuzi set up some divine formations outside the cave, saying that with these formations, the vengeful spirits wouldn't dare to approach.

"Woo woo ~"

Two hours later, a sharp, strange cry suddenly rang out outside. Jiang Han could hear it even inside the mountain. He listened for a while and felt a little creeped out.

"Woo woo woo ~"

Ghostly cries echoed everywhere outside. Jiang Han listened for half an hour, then thought for a moment and asked, "Can I go take a look?"

Qing Xuzi thought for a moment and said, "You can, but don't look for too long, because the aura of living beings on our bodies will attract the vengeful spirits. If we attract a Ghost King, it will be a big trouble."

"Understood!"

Jiang Han nodded. Qing Xuzi opened the divine formation and quickly led Jiang Han through the cave.

Soon, the two appeared on the mountainside. Jiang Han poked his head out of a cave and looked down.

After a few glances, Jiang Han immediately retracted. He had seen dozens of vengeful spirits, but they were different from what he had imagined. They weren't the kind of green-faced, fanged, and terrifying ghosts.

Instead, they were like clusters of clouds, floating in the mountains. Their shapes were humanoid, but they had no faces or features. They were very fast, drifting back and forth, emitting strange cries as they flew.

He and Qing Xuzi quickly returned to the previous cave. Qing Xuzi activated the divine formation and explained, "Vengeful spirits are divided into three types. What Heavenly Chaos Sovereign saw just now was the lowest level. The next level is larger, and their bodies are somewhat more solid."

"The last type is the Ghost King. Their appearance is completely solid, and they also have facial features, with ghostly fire flickering in their eyes, and no aura of living beings on their bodies. If you encounter a Ghost King, Heavenly Chaos Sovereign, you must immediately find a way to escape. Anyone below the Dao Entry Realm will die."

"Is that so?"

Jiang Han was skeptical, mainly because the Heavenly Beast Cauldron was too strong. He didn't believe that a Ghost King could break through the Heavenly Beast Cauldron's defenses.

Of course… he wouldn't be foolish enough to find a Ghost King to test it.

They stayed in the cave for a night, listening to the howling of ghosts all night long. When dawn broke and the vengeful spirits disappeared, Qing Xuzi led him forward again.

This time, after traveling for half a day, Qing Xuzi led him out of a mountain. He pointed ahead and said, "Heavenly Chaos Sovereign, look, that is Ghost City!"

Jiang Han looked in the direction he pointed, and after a glance, he was shocked!

A giant city stood in front of them, and this giant city was actually suspended in the air.

Although it wasn't suspended too high, only about a hundred feet or so, a giant city with a circumference of ten thousand feet floating directly in the air was beyond Jiang Han's comprehension.

How heavy was this city?

What kind of divine formation, what kind of power could make an entire city float in the air?

Moreover, the layout of this city was different from ordinary cities. This city felt like a pyramid. From this side, he could see that the city was divided into four levels.

In the center of the highest level was a huge palace, and the third level had nine relatively smaller palaces surrounding the central palace.

The second level had more buildings, seemingly with hundreds of courtyards.

The first level had the largest area, with about a thousand courtyards, and four huge plazas in the east, west, north, and south.

The city was divided into four levels, each level separated by several feet. The palace at the highest point was dozens of feet away from the first level, and the huge palace could probably be seen from below.

After a few glances, Jiang Han's eyes were filled with shock, and he repeatedly asked, "Qing Xuzi, how did this city manage to float in the air?"

"Because… this city itself is a treasure, a super-grade spiritual artifact!"

Qing Xuzi said with a face full of reverence, "This city could not float in the air originally. It was the city lord of the previous generation, a super powerful Dao Harmonization Realm expert from the Spirit Race, ten thousand years ago."

"Before he died, he melted his own body into the city, giving this city life."

"After that, there were more than thirty city lords, all of whom were in the Dao Harmonization Realm. Before they died, they would all melt their bodies into it."

"They poured the magic power they had cultivated throughout their lives into it, making the city stronger and stronger, and eventually turning it into a super powerful super-grade spiritual artifact."

"It is precisely because this city has become a powerful super-grade spiritual artifact that the Ghost God Mountain Range has not been captured by the major powerful races. This is why this place has become a base for rogue cultivators, and a sacred place in the hearts of those warriors who pursue freedom."

"Hmm…"

Jiang Han was once again shocked. More than thirty Dao Harmonization Realm experts melted their bodies and all their magic power into this city before they died.

How strong was this city? Could a single strike kill a group of Dao Entry Realm experts?
