Chapter 543
It landed on his face and stung a little.
He reached out and wiped away the water droplets, his eyelids twitched, and he immediately found shelter under a tree from the rain.
Although the rainwater won't have any significant impact on people's health, the stinging sensation is real, so it's best to avoid it.
The tree spirit looked at this scene with a look of shock on its face.
"What? There's such a thing?" He hadn't expected that someone could actually dispel the demonic and ghostly energy, causing it to fall to the ground.
Originally, they existed as eerie gases, thus forming a natural barrier that could protect ghosts and monsters.
Because whether they are ghosts or demons, they can transform into a wisp of energy and merge into the dense fog at any time, making it difficult for anyone to detect their presence.
But this brat's move essentially destroyed the barrier.
These demons and ghosts suddenly had nowhere to hide.
When Ling Yanyan descended from the sky, he saw Yan Chixia looking around in shock. Following his gaze, he felt a chill run down his spine.
Once the thick fog barrier was gone, the deep mountains were teeming with ghosts and monsters.
They were not far away, staring at them menacingly, their crimson eyes gleaming with ill intent, and some of the drugs even exuded a strong murderous aura.
It's as if they are seen as thorns in one's side, a nuisance, or even as food on one's plate.
Yan Chixia had seen many demons in his life, but seeing this scene still made his hands tighten and his heart tremble.
He looked at Ling Yanyan, not daring to underestimate him because of his young age, and instead respected him even more.
"Ling Yanyan, thank goodness I listened to you and we didn't act rashly. Otherwise, with so many ghosts, the enemy was in the open and we were in the dark, it would have been really inconvenient."
This deep mountain is some kind of eerie place, inhabited by all sorts of monsters.
Perhaps influenced by the tree spirit, every flower, tree, blade of grass, and leaf has developed a demonic nature, so much so that the animals among them are not immune either. Just look at this menacing appearance, and you'll know they are no pushovers.
Near Zhu Zhechi, near the ink is black.
They grow under the territory of the tree spirit, and are naturally affected by the tree spirit.
As for the source of the ghostly aura, it's even simpler.
Over the years, the tree demon has killed countless passersby, innocent or not. Their bones are piled up here. They were killed by the tree demon when they died, and their resentment naturally turned into a raging inferno, which condensed into ghostly energy.
Unfortunately, none of them were a match for the tree demon, and they were unable to avenge themselves. Instead, they became nourishment and tools for the tree demon.
There are also ashes buried here by passersby. Perhaps these people never imagined that their ashes would turn into ghosts, forever confined to this place, unable to leave.
Looking at the ghostly auras that had lost their senses, Ling Yan Yan sighed softly.
Monsters are not worth lamenting, but ghosts inevitably evoke feelings of sorrow.
Yan Chixia couldn't help but say, "I wonder how many innocent people that beast has harmed. Look at this overwhelming ghostly aura of resentment. Sigh, it seems I really shouldn't have stood idly by before!"
He used to think that killing bad guys was one thing, but in such a miserable world, there was killing and bloodshed everywhere.
He didn't want to get involved in the feuds of the martial arts world, and of course, he didn't care about the villains dying a violent death.
But now that I think about it again, a ghost is a ghost, and a person is a person. A person can take another person's life, but a ghost cannot take another person's life.
Everyone has their own path; if there is no cause and effect, revenge is wrong.
Ling Yanyan didn't know what he was thinking, but seeing the melancholy look on his face, he probably thought of many things.
Yan Chixia.
He spent half his life killing people and the other half exorcising ghosts; he probably had many feelings about all of this.
