Chapter 418 Retrieving the Soul-Chasing Lantern



Everyone’s first reaction was that the soul-chasing lantern was missing.

I looked everywhere but there was no sign of him.

But then, they saw the enormous black hole. The burning atmosphere inside was like hell. The evil spirits around it began to wail, making bursts of shrill and sharp sounds.

Some of them couldn't hold back and rushed in, accompanied by screams and the sound suddenly disappeared, without even smoke coming out.

"The Glazed Fire is in the center of the ghost town?" Lin Yue guessed.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain why the soul-chasing lantern disappeared out of thin air and a huge hole appeared on the ground.

Xiao Jingyun said: "You go back first, I'll go in and take a look."

Lin Yue nodded and escorted Xiaoman, Yaoyao and the others back first.

However, the gate to the ghost town was already closed. The innkeeper said, "The mayor said that if the soul-chasing lantern is not found, all the demons and ghosts will be trapped here and no one will be able to leave."

Yaoyao was so scared that she hugged Xiaoman: "Sister, what should we do?"

Xiaoman said: "Don't be afraid, sister will find a way to take you out."

Lin Yue looked at Lao Wu: "When you came back, was the city gate still open?"

Lao Wu nodded: "Yes, otherwise how did we get in?"

Lin Yue said: "That's strange."

Xiaoman said: "If I have to complete the mission, then I will go."

Lin Yue said: "Don't be impatient."

After she finished speaking, she brought Yaoyao into the space, and then took Xiaoman and Laowu back to kill them.

Seeing the huge pit and the ghosts lurking around, ready to jump out, the three of them jumped into the pit without thinking.

It was extremely hot below, and the magma was scorching, almost melting them.

Fortunately, they had magical weapons to protect themselves and were not burned.

But even so, the extremely high temperature still made them feel very uncomfortable.

At this moment, Lin Yue discovered that Xiaoman could breathe freely.

She was immediately surprised and asked, "Xiaoman, can you bear the high temperature here?"

Xiaoman asked doubtfully, "Is it hot?"

"I just feel a little stuffy."

Xiao Huaichen: "It's not very hot, it's almost cooked."

Lin Yue: “Uh…”

Soon, they found Xiao Jingyun at the edge of the lava.

Before he could say anything, he saw an evil ghost jump down, but then it was sucked into the magma and turned into a bubble.

Several people were stunned.

Xiao Jingyun said: "I tried it with my hand and could sense that there was a magical weapon inside."

"But there's no way to get in such a huge lava."

Xiaoman lowered her head and said, "Let me give it a try."

After she finished speaking, she picked up the magma.

The magma swayed in her palm like a red gem, but her hand was completely unharmed.

When the magma fell to the ground, the ground was dissolved in an instant, which was more terrifying than corpse-dissolving water.

Lao Wu asked, "Did Sect Master Limo place some magical weapon on her?"

"Otherwise, how could it be so powerful? It's simply unbelievable."

Lin Yue suddenly had an idea: "Old Five, try using the soul-calling banner."

Lao Wu covered his chest and said, "I don't want to. The spirit-calling flag said it doesn't want to try."

Lin Yue: "..."

Xiaoman said, "Master didn't give me any magical tools."

"I just thought about how many people are waiting for the Soul-Chasing Lantern and want to fulfill their long-cherished wish, so I wanted to find it back as soon as possible."

Lin Yue seemed to understand: "Is that so? I'll give it a try!"

She closed her eyes, stretched out her hand and used her telekinesis to summon the Soul-Chasing Lamp. Suddenly, she felt the Soul-Chasing Lamp in the abyss move.

Although it was just for a moment, it proved that telekinesis is still useful.

She exclaimed, "I know."

"The Glazed Fire requires telekinesis to pull out."

"We can't do it alone."

"Come on, let's get out before they have to make another fearless sacrifice."

Soon, Lin Yueliang revealed his identity when he went out.

"I am Lin Yue, the eldest disciple of the Qingcheng Sect, and the people around me are my family."

"We've just gone in and investigated. The Soul-Chasing Lantern you're looking for is inside, but we can't get it out with our abilities alone."

"The Soul-Chasing Lantern is a beacon of long-cherished wishes, born to fulfill your wishes. Only when we all work together and use our most sincere thoughts can we summon the Soul-Chasing Lantern."

One of the monsters said, "It's easy for you to say, and we're willing to do it, but the problem is, what if the Soul Chasing Lantern comes out and you snatch it away?"

Lin Yue said: "The city lord has sealed the city. Even if I steal the Soul Chasing Lantern, I can't get out. Why should I?"

"Besides, the Soul-Chasing Lamp belongs to the City Lord. It can help me relieve myriad sorrows in the future. If I take it, it will appear to be an extra powerful magical tool, but in reality, it will only attract myriad hatreds, which will be greatly detrimental to my cultivation."

"You can believe me or not. But that was all after the Soul-Chasing Lamp appeared. Now it's in the lava, and none of us can get it out. Why don't we work together to find it first?"

"When the time comes, whoever dares to monopolize it will be dealt with by the city lord himself, and there is no need for you to be so petty now."

The remaining ghosts and monsters quieted down instantly after hearing this.

They only trusted the city lord, so they worked together and sat down cross-legged.

With their cooperation, and Lin Yue and Xiao Jingyun activating their spiritual power, Xiaoman joined in when he saw this.

Xiao Huaichen didn't have much spiritual power, so he used the soul-summoning flag to help.

Soon, countless thoughts turned into spiritual powers and flew into the magma. The originally boiling magma gradually calmed down. Everyone seemed to feel something and became more immersed in it, praying with the most sincere thoughts.

The heat around quickly dissipated, and a cool breeze blew. As the night grew darker, the fire in the magma seemed to no longer be fire, but light.

A light where they can find comfort.

After three days and three nights, a huge lotus with a wick slowly appeared in front of everyone. The lotus seemed transparent, and the light inside reflected all kinds of illusions.

It was at this moment that everyone saw the scenes they wanted to see in the lights, and they rushed in one after another.

The lights became brighter and brighter, and the glass fire became extremely hot.

Thanks to the support of the Soul-Chasing Lantern, all their mental powers found the safest shelter for them, so that many people returned safely after fulfilling their long-cherished wishes.

The gate of the ghost town has been opened, and the ghosts who have achieved their wishes have left on their own, and no one stays for long.

There were also those who wanted to covet the Soul-Chasing Lamp, but unfortunately, once they entered the lamp, they never came back.

Seeing this, those behind with evil intentions ran away.

By the time all the ghosts retreated, the ground had returned to its original state.

Even Wen Shouchun found his wife, then came back to pick up his daughter and entered the cycle of reincarnation together.

Xiao Jingyun said: "The Soul-Chasing Lamp uses the power of the Glazed Fire to comfort all the resentful ghosts and monsters and allow them to start anew."

"The Lord of Ghost City is a kind person. Let's return the Soul-Chasing Lantern to him."

Lin Yue and Xiaoman nodded.

Soon, several people escorted the Soul-Chasing Lantern into the high walls of the ghost town.

The city lord also met them, but when he took off his mask, everyone was stunned.
