Li Yu's gaze fell on the Nightmare Beast on the bow. The Nightmare Beast immediately understood Li Yu's meaning, rolled its black eyes, and muttered irritably:
"Tsk tsk, this little thing is lucky to have run into a 'strange beast' like you who loves to meddle."
The Nightmare Beast opened its eyes wide and stared straight at him: "I'll take pity on you and check on your mother."
It concentrated its mental energy and looked for a long time before replying solemnly to Li Yuning:
"Li Yu, I don't think its mother is completely dead. Rather, it's more like the three guys before her, whose souls were completely frozen by an extremely domineering and cold power, and whose consciousness was completely sealed off!"
The Nightmare Beast paused, then continued to explain:
"If the spellcaster's power continues to exist and maintains its ability, then its mother will probably only be able to maintain this form indefinitely."
Looking at the hopeful little ghost, Li Yu could only slowly shake his head.
The little ghost was startled, and its body suddenly stiffened.
It also realized that even a good beast couldn't save its mother.
The light in the little ghost's eyes dimmed instantly, leaving only an endless void.
Last hope was dashed.
A faint, almost inaudible wail escaped from the depths of its soul.
The next second, a chilling, deathly aura emanated from its tiny soul!
The pure white mist that made up its body began to become turbid and extremely unstable, swaying violently like a candle flickering in the wind.
As its consciousness gradually faded, the eerie power of the ghost rapidly eroded its body.
Li Yu also realized that this was self-annihilation caused by completely giving up the will to exist!
Just as the little ghost's consciousness was about to completely dissipate, returning to the state of an ordinary ghost that only acts on instinct.
"Pooh!"
A white mist shot from the Nightmare Beast's eyes, striking the Little Ghost precisely.
The small, white misty body, on the verge of collapse, trembled violently, as if injected with a stimulant. Its dissipating consciousness was instantly halted and stabilized.
Sensing the surprised look from Li Yu, the Nightmare Beast glanced away with its black eye and spoke in a deliberately indifferent tone:
"Li Yushou, what are you looking at? Isn't that what you mean? Don't think I don't know what you're thinking just because you're not saying anything!"
"You just want me to step in and save this little thing, right? Humph! Do you think you can teach me how to do things?!"
Looking at the Nightmare Beast's arrogant demeanor, Li Yu couldn't help but smile wryly.
"Mom...don't be afraid...I will save you..." the little ghost murmured to itself, like a small beast made of white mist, obediently curled up in its mother's cold embrace, falling into a deep sleep as if protecting itself.
Li Yu silently turned around, squeezed through the narrow gap again, and returned to the more expansive yet colder underground world.
In the darkness, thick white fog churned.
Everything in the mine was so desolate.
The gloomy world seemed to be filled with sadness everywhere.
The surroundings were quiet, with only the sound of flowing water coming from somewhere in the darkness as proof of the passage of time.
To uncover everything about the existence of the ghosts and to end this twisted, tragic cycle of death, we must find the ruler of the underworld deep within the fog.
Li Yu noted the location of the gap behind her, then turned and strode into the depths of the thick fog.
Strangely, the number of ghostly corpses that were once scattered everywhere along the way began to decrease dramatically, and some even disappeared completely.
After Li Yu went a little further in, he could no longer see a single body in his field of vision!
Just as Li Yu was wondering, the outline of a ghostly "corpse" maintaining a running posture faintly appeared in the thick fog ahead.
Li Yu's eyes narrowed, and she was about to step forward to examine the area more closely.
"Whoosh!"
A sharp white shadow swept past the side of the ghostly corpse with astonishing speed!
The white figure held a sharp blade formed from dense white mist in its hand and stabbed down fiercely without warning!
"puff!"
With a soft sound, the frozen ghostly corpse, like a broken ice sculpture, instantly shattered into a cloud of gray-white mist that quickly merged into the surrounding environment and returned to nothingness.
Li Yu stopped in his tracks, instantly understanding why this area was so clean and why there wasn't a single ghostly corpse present.
I never imagined that there were ghosts specifically responsible for cleaning up corpses.
"Who?" A wary female voice suddenly rang out upon noticing Li Yu's presence not far away.
The white figure darted back and attacked like a hunting cat!
The mist in his hand quickly reformed into a long whip, which wrapped around Li Yu's neck with perfect precision.
Because Li Yu completely concealed his aura, there was no energy fluctuation on his body.
Nowadays, he is almost a non-threatening presence in the eyes of most ghosts.
Li Yu remained calm, without even making any defensive or resistant gestures.
She simply raised her head slightly, her gaze calmly meeting that of the attacker.
A tall female ghost.
Although it was a ghost, it exuded a sense of ethereal tranquility.
A clean and delicate oval face, and an almost transparent white body, like fine white porcelain bathed in moonlight.
With a naturally cool demeanor, his gaze warily fell upon Li Yu, and he said with a face full of shock:
"A strange beast?"
Li Yu: "......"
A sense of absurd powerlessness welled up inside him, and he even wondered if the other person was blind.
Those low-level ghosts had limited intelligence, so they were fine with admitting their mistakes.
This 'highly intelligent' ghost, which clearly possesses a complete human form and a clear consciousness, actually regards him as a 'strange beast'?
