Li Ziyu looked up at the sky and could no longer distinguish the appearance of individual ghosts. They were all crowded together. Fortunately, the ghosts had no bodies and existed in a state of energy. Even if two ghosts were superimposed on each other, there would be no damage.
How many dead souls are needed to gather together such a large "green cloud"? I'm afraid it must be more than a million.
[Unlock special item: Soul Coffin]
Just as he was marveling at the large number of dead souls, the system prompt sounded suddenly, startling Li Ziyu.
He heard clearly that this time it was items that were unlocked, not buildings. This was quite interesting. It was the first time that the system unlocked special items. However, in front of so many ghosts, he didn't have time to check.
"Can you tell me why you are here?" Li Ziyu resisted the curiosity to check the soul coffin and asked the doubts he had after coming to the cave. These ghosts were obviously born from the mountain of corpses, and perhaps they would know the secrets here.
His words made the entire space silent. After a few seconds of silence, the ghosts suddenly burst out with violent soul fluctuations, as if they were stimulated.
Did I ask something I shouldn't have asked?
Feeling the waves that constantly impacted his soul, Li Ziyu felt very uncomfortable. He could feel the sadness in the waves.
"They forgot..."
"We have been forgotten..."
"Why did you forget us..."
The wind blew in the quiet mountain of corpses, and the dead souls were stimulated and unconsciously triggered a soul storm. Once the storm formed, the dead souls might not be in serious trouble, but the souls of Li Ziyu, Liu Xingxing and the two cat people would definitely be torn to pieces.
"quiet!"
Just as the storm was forming, the Ghost King suddenly turned around, revealing his ghost appearance. He raised his hideous face, looked up at the sky and shouted loudly. The sound waves swept through, and the soul storm wave broke with a sound. The ghosts who were in agitation woke up one after another and hurriedly gathered their soul energy.
They actually didn't want to kill the creatures below.
It has been so many years since they last saw a living being that they have lost count.
Ever since they regained consciousness, they have been trapped here. This mountain of corpses and souls is not so much their home as it is a huge cage that deprives them of their freedom.
This place bound them, preventing them from leaving. Some of the dead souls who had grown stronger had tried to break free from this bondage and forcibly rushed out of the mountain of corpses and the place where souls gathered. However, as soon as they got outside, their souls flew away and turned into energy and returned to heaven and earth.
With those dead souls as examples, other dead souls no longer try to leave. They feel the world's resistance to them. They no longer belong to this world. They can only live here, day after day, year after year, boring and tedious, and gain a ridiculous eternal life in this cage-like place.
They longed to contact the outside world, but no one would enter the mountain. They waited year after year, and finally Li Ziyu and his friends arrived.
"I'm sorry, they couldn't control their emotions." After suppressing the ghosts, the Ghost King regained his human form, turned around and spoke gently with an apologetic tone.
"This isn't just a case of losing control of your emotions, this is a case of wanting to kill me." Liu Xingxing murmured, and suddenly fell to the ground, with his bones crackling.
Maybe it was because of the undead, Li Ziyu felt at best not very well, his face was a little pale, and Liu Xingxing was almost dead, his whole body was in severe pain, it was the pain from the soul, the kind that was almost impossible to relieve, making his eyes go black for a while.
Seeing that Liu Xingxing was in a bad condition, an orc with fangs behind the king waved his hand, and immediately four ghosts left the team, floated to his side, transformed into beautiful women, and hummed softly in Liu Xingxing's ears.
Strangely enough, when Liu Xingxing heard the soft music, his painful expression gradually disappeared, and he became calm and peaceful, and the pain in his body also eased.
Seeing that he was fine, Li Ziyu looked at the Ghost King, waiting for him to give him an explanation.
The Ghost King sighed, his eyes went blank, and he slowly began to tell a piece of history that had been forgotten by the wasteland.
A long time ago, countless years ago, all ethnic groups lived on this land. It was rich and vast, and nurtured countless lives.
Those were peaceful and beautiful days. Every race could find their own place to live here and they could live a self-sufficient life. Although there were occasional frictions, everything was under control and peaceful.
Over the long years, four forces gradually formed through separation and reunion: two kingdoms dominated by humans, one kingdom dominated by orcs, and one kingdom dominated by elemental creatures.
Four major forces coexisted and divided the land, but no large-scale war occurred. The King of the Dead was the ruler of one of the two human kingdoms. His country was called the United Kingdom of Borkhan. It was an open country dominated by humans but accepting all races. Any race could come to Borkhan without being discriminated against or suppressed.
"It was so good back then." The Ghost King looked into the void and sighed, recalling the prosperous and peaceful Borhan United Kingdom at that time, and the people who always seemed to have smiles on their faces, and then he continued to tell the story.
The turning point of the story comes from another human kingdom called Komei Deng, which is a kingdom composed of pure humans. The humans in Komei Deng Kingdom do not practice cultivation. They rely on external objects to become strong and have strong combat power, but they are weak and have a short lifespan.
At some point, Komeideng discovered some strange substances. They felt that the substances could enhance their combat effectiveness, so they conducted research and development. However, they didn't expect that it would be the beginning of all the disasters!
