"You know him! Are you his disciple?!" The woman grabbed Li Yiru's neck with both hands, and a cold and ruthless voice sounded from her body, filled with anger.
Li Yirou didn't know if she was talking about Han Yuzhen, but she was being strangled by the neck and couldn't speak. She could only use her spiritual consciousness to transmit the message, "Are you talking about Han Yuzhen? He is my enemy!"
The ghost girl's hand loosened a little, but it was still on her neck. "You're talking nonsense! I saw it. I saw you worship him as your master! I saw him teach you!"
How could she see it? Teach her?! Lock her up in a cave and force her to practice?
[I killed him.] After her spiritual consciousness conveyed these words to the female ghost, her dark eyes regained some normality, as if she had regained her rationality and wanted to get an explanation.
But Li Yiru had no time to waste with her. Taking this opportunity, she broke free from the ghost girl's hand and controlled the soul bead to suppress the fierce soul.
"You dare to lie to me! You will die too! You will all be killed by me completely!!!" The female ghost resisted the power of the soul bead, but this treasure that once belonged to her, in turn suppressed her to death.
"You sinister villain!!"
Li Yiru ignored her and continued to follow Taxue into the depths of the secret realm.
Luo Hanchu and the others behind him were still fighting with the evil spirits that kept rushing towards them. They were unable to break free for a while, and when they looked up again, Li Yiru was nowhere to be seen.
When she finally arrived at the center of the secret realm, Ji Shiyan's body was lying there, his skin was gray and he was no longer breathing.
Countless ghosts tried to squeeze into this body that had just lost its soul, but due to the competition among them, no ghost succeeded for a while.
"Ji Shiyan!" Li Yirou was completely panicked. She protected his body and drove away other ghosts.
She cried out helplessly, trying to find his figure among the crowd of souls. But there was no...
Where would he be?!
Taxue meowed many times, but Ji Shiyan didn't respond at all.
"Ha, see? Your ending will soon be the same as his! Did you really think the ghost realm was so easy to break into?!" The female ghost said sarcastically in the soul bead. Li Yirou asked her anxiously, "You can find him, right?"
"Why should I help you? I wish you all died! Anyone who dares to hurt me will never be reincarnated, and his descendants will all die in my hands!!!" The woman's voice became even more terrifying. She attacked the soul bead again, trying to get out.
"I don't know what grudge you have with him, but he wanted to take over my body, so I killed him and you should repay me." Li Yiru guessed that she saw some fragments, perhaps because she devoured Han Yuzhen's soul.
That's why Han Yuzhen didn't react at all when she used the retrospective mirror...
Yes! The Retrospective Mirror! Li Yirou quickly took it out and used Ji Shiyan's spirit sword as a medium, injecting spiritual power into it to search for his soul.
"Yiro, I'm fine! I'll be fine soon!" Li Yirou was so worried that she was in a panic. Ji Shiyan's soul appeared, still holding his magic sword in his hand.
He seemed to be chopping a powerful soul into pieces, which he then kept repairing. Ji Shiyan raised his sword and chopped it again, but the soul recovered again, as if it was caught in an inescapable cycle.
Judging from the surrounding scene, it should be nearby. Because of the dark and spooky cave in the secret realm, the closer you get to the center, you can barely make out the outline of a house.
Seeing that he could still handle it, Li Yiru finally felt relieved.
It’s just that the plants here seem to be particularly tall, with a smell of corruption, and black and green mist rising from the plants.
Li Yiru, a cultivator with an affinity for wood, felt uncomfortable, but also wanted to use magic to explore them.
"Tell me! You really killed him! Are you telling the truth!!" the female ghost asked. Li Yiru did not let her out. Ji Shiyan's body was still here to prevent her from having any bad thoughts.
She explained to her affirmatively, "Can you tell me where the person I'm looking for is?"
"You can't get through. That's the master of the secret realm, unless he takes the initiative..." Before she finished her words, Li Yirou saw a passage opening. Taxue jumped back onto Li Yirou's shoulder and walked in with her.
"How is it possible? That dead face would actually..." the woman murmured, and she swallowed the second half of the sentence. Li Yirou did not hear it.
But to the evil spirit woman, the master of the secret realm actually took the initiative to communicate with others? And let two people in at once?! Who are these two people?
When they didn't see the monks on weekdays, their expressions were still very rich, almost like living people, with both joy and anger.
But most of the spirits trapped in this secret realm are evil spirits, so there is more anger and conflict than joy and peace.
Except for those who are too resentful to enter the reincarnation cycle, as long as they don't mention the cause of each other's death, they still have their rationality and can live in peace with each other.
But the Lord of the Secret Realm is different. No matter when he appears, whether he is destroying souls or killing people, he always has an expression like a dead wife. They all call him Dead Face.
"Ayan, come back to your body quickly." As soon as Li Yiru entered the space opened up by the Lord of the Secret Realm, she was afraid that something might happen to Ji Shiyan, so she let his body go there first.
"You are finally here." When these words came out, it was not Ji Shiyan who said them, but the Lord of the Secret Realm who was called the Dead Face by the evil ghost girl.
He is... very strange, with short hair. Could he be from Wuji City?
"Do we know each other?" Li Yiru asked back. Was this another karma owed by the original owner, or did the goddess need her to do something?
The dead-faced man nodded, then shook his head. "Anyway, now that I've seen you, I can go back." He handed over a blank jade token and said, "Infuse spiritual consciousness."
He looked as if he'd better do it quickly. Li Yirou took it doubtfully and injected her spiritual consciousness into it as he said. Only then did his eyes light up with anticipation and joy. "Thank you."
After saying these two short words, he disappeared into the secret realm like mist.
...So, there are no spiritual creatures controlling the Secret Realm of a Hundred Ghosts?
If the jade token falls into her hands, she won't become the new master of the secret realm and be trapped here, right?
I was careless and didn't dodge! Li Yirou was worried, and the next second, the secret realm began to collapse!
"The Secret Realm of a Hundred Ghosts is gone... The world is going to be in chaos..." The evil ghost originally in the soul bead suddenly said, "Please let me out. I know he is dead, and the resentment has dissipated a lot. I can also do some good things, so I will reincarnate.
Back then, that bastard Han Yuzhen tricked me into a dual cultivation relationship and stole my treasures. He also lied to my family, saying that I died in an accident and that my relatives died of grief. This caused me to be filled with resentment and turned me into an evil spirit.
I thought... he was living a good life, even accepting disciples and founding a sect, but it turns out he still has a mean streak and is unlikely to achieve anything significant. Now that I know he'll be punished for his unjust actions again, and I've devoured his soul, I don't seem to harbor any resentment anymore."
Li Yirou didn't pay much attention to her, focusing only on the first sentence. "I have one more question. Senior, what did you mean when you said, 'With the Hundred Ghosts Secret Realm gone, the world will be in chaos?'"
