Chapter 55: Ghost Ridge
Bai Fengzhi understood and immediately mobilized his spiritual power. The fire spiritual power gathered at his fingertips and turned into a small flame. After a while, the small flame turned into a fireball with a diameter of one meter.
Bai Fengzhi pushed hard and the fireball was thrown into the air, instantly illuminating the entire dark space.
Bai Fuling gasped at the scene in front of her.
I saw countless white balls in front of me. The moment they felt the fire, they slowly grew heads and limbs.
Some were crawling towards them, and some were jumping towards them.
Bai Fengzhi realized that it was his fireball that awakened the sleeping souls, and he immediately took back the fireball.
The flames died out and the space returned to darkness.
You could hear a pin drop in the silent space, and Bai Fuling could clearly hear the sound of them crawling on the ground.
"Where is this?" Bai Fuling was frightened by the scene just now.
If there were only one or two, she could still use her white jade sword to block them, but how could she block so many? Was she teleported to the den of wronged souls?
"Haunted Soul Ridge."
"It's a bit like the legendary Ghost Ridge."
Qing He's voice and Li Yubai's voice sounded at the same time.
Bai Fuling wanted to cry when she heard Qinghe's voice. This long-lost sense of security made her forget about the tens of thousands of wronged souls.
It seems that as long as Qinghe is there, all difficulties are no longer difficulties, and all dangers can be easily solved.
"Where did you go just now?" Bai Fuling felt aggrieved.
Qing He said, "I looked at the space nodes."
Bai Fuling didn’t understand what space nodes were, so she simply said “oh”.
Liu Yuanbai was a man who could grasp the key points, and immediately asked Li Yubai, "Why is it in the legend?"
Li Yubai explained, "I read about it in a book a few days ago. In the original world of immortal cultivation, there was a ridge of wronged souls. That was the final destination of every wronged soul. Most cultivators were afraid of getting into trouble and affecting their cultivation, so they didn't dare to set foot on the ridge of wronged souls easily. But this ridge of wronged souls suddenly disappeared 10,000 years ago."
"When did you read the book? I have read all the books you have read, so why haven't I seen the one you mentioned? Are you secretly studying it behind my back again?" Liu Yuanbai's focus suddenly shifted.
Bai Fengzhi rolled his eyes and punched him in the chest, "Ask about the main point."
Liu Yuanbai covered his chest and wanted to put on a show, but he felt that the occasion was not right, so he gave up.
"Why did it suddenly disappear?"
Li Yubai shook his head, "I don't know."
"What should we do now?" Liu Yuanbai turned his head to look at Bai Fuling, and the other two also turned their eyes to her.
Bai Fuling just wanted to be an invisible person at this moment, because she didn't know either!
Facing everyone's gaze, Bai Fuling was so nervous that she forced herself to laugh dryly twice, then frantically called Qinghe in her heart.
"Remove the protective shield." Qinghe ordered.
"Ah?" Bai Fuling almost thought she had heard it wrong and even uttered a sound.
"What's wrong?" everyone asked.
Facing the greetings from the three people, Bai Fuling was also embarrassed. She couldn't say that she thought she heard it wrongly and that's why she said "ah".
They don't know Qinghe's existence yet.
Bai Fuling was afraid that she had heard it wrong, so she could only confirm with Qinghe again. Qinghe repeated it impatiently.
Bai Fuling was sure that she had heard correctly, so she could only bite the bullet and whisper, "Remove the protective shield."
If we remove the shield at this time, wouldn't that be the same as letting the ghosts rush over? So many ghosts, rushing over one by one, wouldn't that be pure suicide?
"What?" Liu Yuanbai scratched his ears. "Fellow Daoist Bai, can you please say that again?"
Li Yubai and Bai Fengzhi were also puzzled.
Li Yubai made an objective analysis, "Fellow Daoist Bai, if we remove the shield now, all the wronged souls will rush over. There are too many wronged souls, and we simply cannot fulfill all their requests. If we refuse to agree, we will anger them and then be swallowed by them. With our abilities, we will not be able to escape from so many wronged souls."
Liu Yuanbai immediately nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Bai, you must be cautious in this matter. The protective shield cannot be removed casually."
Bai Fengzhi asked, "Does Brother Bai Dao have any tricks?"
She doesn't have any clever tricks! She just follows orders, okay?
Bai Fuling had no choice but to throw the question to Qinghe, "Brother Qinghe, why did you remove the protective shield? What good will this do us?"
Qing He just thought she was talking too much, and said sarcastically, "It's no good, it will only make more wronged souls crawling over you."
Bai Fuling was furious, "I shouldn't have been so mean!"
How deep is her hatred towards Qing He? How could she trick her like this?
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Someone will come after us soon. Don't you plan to give us some gifts?" Qinghe urged.
Although she didn't quite understand what Qing He said, she felt that Qing He's attitude was much better than before. At least he wasn't being sarcastic anymore.
So he gritted his teeth and said to them, "Retreat first and talk later."
While removing the protective shield, Liu Yuanbai cried, "Fellow Daoist Bai, please don't hurt me."
Bai Fengzhi happily removed the protective shield and said to Liu Yuanbai, "Hua Kongque, just because you lost a bunch of hair, why did you become so timid?"
"You..." Liu Yuanbai pointed at Bai Fengzhi and said through gritted teeth, "Can you please stop bringing up my hair all the time?"
He is already bald, which is sad enough, but this little ancestor still stabs his heart eight hundred times a day.
Bai Fengzhi curled his lips, with an expression that said who is afraid of you, and turned to Bai Fuling and said, "Friend Bai, I believe you."
Li Yubai didn't say much, just removed the protective shield and nodded to Bai Fuling.
As soon as the light golden protective shield disappeared, wronged souls swarmed towards them.
Liu Yuanbai felt that his face was about to be squeezed out of shape. There were at least ten wronged souls hanging on his body. "Fellow Daoist Bai, are you really not trying to trick me? How come there are more wronged souls on my body than on yours?"
Bai Fengzhi only had two ghosts hanging on him, so she wasn't that scared. She sneered and said, "Why are you so weak? There are only a dozen ghosts, right? You can't handle it?"
Li Yubai had six of them hanging on his body, which was not too many, but definitely not a small number for him.
Bai Fuling was in the worst situation. She was already squeezed in the middle by a bunch of wronged souls. Wherever there was any exposed part of her body, there would be more wronged souls to fill in immediately.
Bai Fuling wanted to curse, but her face was squeezed into a meat patty.
"Qinghe, come out, are you really not kidding me?"
Some of these wronged souls can speak human language, some scribble, and some grow two extra hands to gesture.
In short, it was just a request, but Bai Fuling had no idea what the request was.
Except for the first female ghost who spoke clearly, she heard it, but she didn't hear anything about the rest.
The chattering was so loud. Before one person had finished speaking, another one started talking. It was even noisy at the market.
Liu Yuanbai originally wanted to shout a few times and complain, but after seeing the pile of wronged souls hanging on Bai Fuling's body like a small mountain, he silently closed his mouth.
"Agree to their request." Seeing that there were enough wronged souls rushing towards him, Qinghe issued new orders.
"How can I agree? I didn't even hear what they said." Bai Fuling complained in her heart.
How long will it take her to help so many wronged souls solve their problems?
"Don't worry about it, just agree to it." Qinghe urged.
Bai Fuling immediately shouted, "I agree to your request. I agree. No matter what you ask, I will agree to it."
The weight on her body suddenly became lighter. Although those wronged souls were still hanging on her, covering her tightly, they were not as heavy as before.
Bai Fuling finally breathed a sigh of relief, as she had been under great pressure just now.
Bai Fengzhi followed up with, "If you agree to it, I will agree to it too! I will agree to your request as well."
Liu Yuanbai said, you are really a bunch of lunatics, do you want to listen to what you say?
It's just the beginning, and you guys agreed so readily. What if we run into a large army of wronged souls later? Are you going to agree to all of them?
If they agreed to all of them, they would probably not be able to fulfill so many requests even if they worked non-stop for the rest of their lives.
Li Yubai said, "As a cultivator, I also agree to your request."
Li Yubai had just inquired carefully and he already knew the demands of all the wronged souls in his body. Although it was difficult to accomplish, he should be able to do it if he thought of a way. It just would take more time.
Liu Yuanbai wanted to cry but had no tears. What should he do if his companion was too outstanding? He could only agree with tears in his eyes.
Suddenly, at this moment, there was a sound of tearing space behind them. Everyone turned around and was shocked.
Qing He said, "Now, set up the teleportation array immediately."
