Chapter 40 Gu Yufei
As soon as the man in black robe died, countless ghosts and spirits floated out from underground, as if trying to escape from the area.
"Hanhan, we can't let them escape?" Xingbai waved his hand and the barrier appeared.
The red lotus fire in Gu Shihan's hand grew stronger, leaving dozens of rice-sized Tianyou beads on the ground.
"Ding Dong! The task of killing twenty ghosts and spirits is completed, and the life value is changed by +20."
Gu Shihan let out a long sigh, the mission completed. He clicked on the exchange button and successfully reduced the cannon fodder value of the destiny attribute by one +, now it was cannon fodder++.
The man and the fox looked around again. The negative energy was still there, but the sky seemed a lot brighter.
People who entered the Dark Side of the Ghost Forest seemed to have something removed from them, and their depression was reduced.
No one knew what happened, but more and more monks stepped into the Ghost Forest. They began to be on guard against each other, and launched sneak attacks and robbed each other, but they realized something was wrong when the black fog came.
Those with weak wills became nourishment for the black fog and turned into skeletons with only skin left.
The great changes brought everyone together. Song Huifang and her companions also met other cultivators. They formed an alliance to deal with the black fog that attacked from time to time.
What they didn't know was that the attack they encountered today was the weakest in the Ghost Forest. In the past, they had no chance to gather together and survive together.
On this day, Gu Shihan and Xingbai wandered in the Ghost Forest. Perhaps the ghosts and shadows had a tacit understanding, and they all avoided the area where Gu Shihan was active.
"Xingbai, how many days will it take for the dark side of the Ghost Weeping Forest to turn sunny?" Gu Shihan asked, looking around.
"Three days! It should be three days! Hanhan, your fellow disciples should be okay!" Xingbai said, scratching his little paws.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang..." A few thunders interrupted the conversation between Gu Shihan and Xing Bai.
Gu Shihan quickly rushed towards the place where the sound came from. In front of him was a lake with black mist rising from the lake. Could it be that the black mist of the Ghost Forest gathered from here?
The noise came from the dense forest on the right side of the lake. "Come out, come out. What's the point of pretending to be a ghost?" a hoarse male voice came over.
"Ha...hoho, ha...hoho..." The shrill and arrogant ghost howl sounded, and the sound waves spread out, making people feel uneasy.
When Gu Shihan arrived, he saw several men hacking and slashing at the air. In the space surrounded by them, a female cultivator in white was well protected.
There were several people lying lifeless on the ground nearby. It was obvious that they had lost all their energy and were dead.
"Hanhan, that woman is Gu Yufei. Look at that cannon fodder Lei Luo. He's dead. He really has become cannon fodder!"
Before Gu Shihan could recover from her shock, one cannon fodder after another appeared in front of her. Song Ji, Tang Changsheng, Lu Yue, Li Yunlong, Gu Liufeng and Gu Jianping, all of them were cannon fodder.
"Ding Dong! Main quest, reduce the luck of the girl of luck, save the cannon fodder who is about to be cannon fodder, each person will increase the fate value by 1, and each person who escapes from the girl of luck will increase the fate value by +10."
Gu Shihan held his forehead with his hand. Isn’t this task too ridiculous?
"Hanhan, this mission is a bit far-fetched, but it's quite interesting. It seems that Gu Yufei will be fine. It's just a pity for these cannon fodders."
"Isn't it? What do you think the Heaven's will means? How can the chosen girl of destiny..." Gu Shihan looked up at the sky, his face full of confusion.
"Do you think it's possible that Heaven chose the Girl of Fortune, but found out that she wasn't what he wanted, so he asked you to come and correct her? He can't do anything himself, so he can only let you slowly wear away the Girl of Fortune's fortune. After all, the Girl of Fortune he created was already designed, and if her fortune is enough, Heaven cannot wipe her out?!" Xingbai analyzed.
It’s no wonder that Xingbai actually guessed something. The current girl of luck was indeed not chosen by Heaven herself.
One time, this side of the Heavenly Dao was so bored that it met the Heavenly Dao from another continent, whom it usually didn't get along with. The two of them looked down on each other.
Even though they may look down on each other, it does not stop them from making a bet over wine. The bet is that the other party's lucky son will be given a luck index.
Unfortunately, he couldn't drink as much as others and fell down after drinking, and lost miserably.
The enemy certainly would not want the weather to be good and the people to be harmonious under his enemy's rule, so he did some tricks when selecting people, and the beautiful snake who traveled through time successfully took the position.
Tiandao woke up from his hangover and found out that he had been cheated, so he had to take several measures at once.
Gu Shihan, the soul from another world, became an important member in his efforts to restore order.
Gu Shihan watched as the male cultivator Song Ji was pulled over by Gu Yufei to ward off disaster.
Looking at the other people, there seemed to be a hint of in-depth change in their eyes.
Gu Shihan no longer hesitated, and swung the sword in his hand. A few strands of golden and red appeared faintly in the bright green, and he joined the battle.
"Fellow Daoist! Thank you! Tang Changsheng thanks you in advance! Be careful!" Tang Changsheng shouted while casting spells.
Gu Yufei also saw Gu Shihan. She quickly picked up a Tianyou Pearl that had fallen on the ground, and a ball of black mist pounced towards her.
Gu Yufei quickly retreated, circled around Li Yunlong, and shouted, "Brother Yunlong, save me!"
Li Yunlong's heart trembled, and he withdrew the protective thunder spiritual power to protect Gu Yufei.
The lightning power in his hand continued to move forward towards the black fog.
As the protective thunder spiritual power was withdrawn, it opened the door for the invasion of black fog, and a wisp of black fog quickly wrapped around his left foot.
Gu Shihan shook his head. A cultivator with good thunder spiritual roots might be crippled because of a woman.
In fact, Gu Yufei could have risen up and killed the black fog. Her cultivation was not weak and she had already reached the middle stage of foundation building.
Gu Shihan only saw her dodging and hardly saw her take any action. It was obvious that she was conserving her strength and sacrificing others.
Gu Shihan couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted angrily while fighting: "Gu Yufei, are you still a cultivator? You only know how to hide and don't care about other people's lives? If you are afraid of death, then don't cultivate immortality and don't come out to experience.
Others were born by their mothers and raised by their fathers, why would they risk their lives for you?"
With the joining of Gu Shihan, the situation improved, because Gu Shihan could sense the location of ghosts and spirits in the black fog.
After several attempts, he successfully killed three ghosts and collected three Tianyou Pearls.
When Gu Shihan put away the Tianyou Pearl and turned around to help Li Yunlong, he met Gu Shihan's greedy eyes. Was he attracted by the Tianyou Pearl in his hand?
The ghost that attacked Li Yunlong was destroyed. Gu Yufei ran over to pick up the Tianyouzhu, but Gu Shihan didn't let her off. With a wave of her hand, the Tianyouhun fell into her hand.
Li Yunlong fell to the ground, staring at Gu Yufei with a look of despair on his face.
At this time, half of his body was corroded by the black fog and became stiff and bone-chillingly cold.
