The Forest of Vengeful Spirits is dangerous because it is extremely troublesome to deal with, so even cultivators do not easily set foot in such a place. However, such a forest is also very difficult to form. First, there must be enough resentment in the forest to produce Yin-gathering trees, and then the Yin-gathering trees will attract more vengeful spirits to slowly nourish the entire Forest of Vengeful Spirits.

The forest that Youyou and his companions had entered was so vast that it would have required an even greater number of vengeful spirits to form such a large forest. But none of them had imagined that beneath this forest lay a tomb of ten thousand ghosts.

The Tomb of Ten Thousand Ghosts naturally contains ten thousand ghosts. Usually, only during large-scale wars or disasters would so many people die. No one knows what happened in this place before, not only did so many people die, but they all became vengeful spirits. Countless ghostly figures could be seen crawling out of the ground one after another.

Just by looking at their increasingly ferocious appearances, one could guess how much suffering they had endured in their lives. Furthermore, having been trapped in the Forest of Vengeful Spirits for years, the ghosts had been corroded day and night by resentment, causing them to lose their minds and only attack wildly in all directions, creating a scene of overwhelming resentment. Large swarms of vengeful spirits even flew directly towards the people below.

"Sect Master, be careful!" Several voices rang out in unison.

Instantly, both groups sprang into action. The disciples who had been kneeling on Wu Yue's side stood up almost immediately, instinctively shielding her in the middle and blocking her path.

Meanwhile, Youyou habitually stepped forward, pulling Yuan Qi and the others behind her and blocking them from view.

Everyone: "..."

Wu Yue: "..."

Are good-looking people really that different?

(⊙_⊙)

Before the group could think further, an overwhelming horde of vengeful spirits rushed toward them. Amidst the thick black aura of resentment, pairs of crimson eyes stared intently at them, creating a truly eerie scene.

Without hesitation, You You mobilized her spiritual energy and activated the fire control technique she had learned in class. The basic fire control technique, which could only light a fire and create a small flame, began to grow wildly in You You's hands, turning into a vast sea of ​​fire in no time, rushing towards the crazed vengeful spirits.

The Forest of Vengeful Spirits fears fire, and it's unknown whether these vengeful spirits are afraid of it either.

As expected, the vengeful spirits were blocked, and the thick resentment was burned away by the flames, revealing clear ghostly figures within. For a moment, the shrill screams were incessant, as if they could pierce the soul.

Youyou frowned, finding the sound strange. The next moment, she saw Wuyue and all the disciples around her suddenly cover their ears, squat down in pain, and some even fainted.

"Wu Yue!" You You exclaimed in surprise, and was about to step forward.

Behind him, Nie Zheng exclaimed, "Brother Ning!" Ning Hui also squatted down with a pained expression.

“This ghostly cry penetrates their hearts; their cultivation is insufficient to withstand it.” Yuan Qi’s expression darkened, and he quickly said, “Seal their five senses.”

After saying that, he raised his hand and swung it directly at Wu Yue and the others. The next moment, the group of people fainted on the ground, but their complexions had already improved.

Nie Zheng also quickly intervened, sealing Ning Hui's five senses. Just as she was about to faint, he hurriedly looked up at You You and said, "Sect Master... in that ghost's cry, it seems... it's saying something..." He collapsed after saying that.

For a moment, only You You, Yuan Qi, and Nie Zheng remained conscious at the scene.

Upon closer listening, Youyou indeed heard that among the increasingly sharp and piercing sounds, there seemed to be something mixed in, one sound after another.

"Help me... Someone please help me..."

"Anyone will do, I just don't want to die..."

"I want to go home, go home..."

"Why, why did you have to..."

This is……

“These might be the last thoughts of these vengeful spirits before they died!” Yuan Qi sighed and explained, “They were bound by the Forest of Vengeful Spirits, and their souls were eroded by the resentment day and night, so they remained stuck at the moment before their death and had long since lost their minds.”

"They're about to disperse!" Nie Zheng exclaimed, pointing to the sky.

When the group looked up, they saw that the vengeful spirits, engulfed by the sea of ​​fire, dared not approach. The spirits, which had been gathered together, began to disperse and fly in all directions, as if they wanted to leave this land.

"We can't let them leave!" Nie Zheng said urgently. "If so many vengeful spirits were to enter the mortal realm, they would surely cause a great disaster!" Mortals are not like cultivators; they cannot subdue these completely irrational vengeful spirits.

Unfortunately, there were simply too many vengeful spirits, and they were scattered everywhere, making it impossible to stop them. Nie Zheng was anxious, trying to figure out how to capture those vengeful spirits.

Yuan Qi simply made a hand seal, and a golden light shone from beneath his feet, spreading outwards and instantly covering the entire scorched earth—it was a massive array. Once the array was complete, a semi-transparent golden light shield rose up, enveloping the entire Forest of Wraiths, including the wraiths above.

"This formation can only trap them," Yuan Qi explained, looking at the sky where they were still running around wildly, even starting to attack the formation's vengeful spirits, "but it cannot completely solve the problem."

"What should we do then?" You You frowned. They couldn't just keep these vengeful spirits trapped here forever, could they? "Nie Zheng, do you know how we dealt with vengeful spirits in the past?"

“The only way to appease a vengeful spirit is to either perform a ritual to release it from its slumber or seal it away and let its resentment dissipate on its own,” Nie Zheng explained.

"Can you help them pass on to the afterlife?" Youyou asked. He was an immortal, so this should be considered a basic skill. "I'll pay you."

“It will…” Nie Zheng’s face fell. He looked at the sky filled with countless vengeful spirits and felt a chill run down his spine. “But with so many, I’m afraid…”
