The fog filled the air.
The three of them were drowned.
Ye Ping looked extremely calm.
With Su Changyu around, he did not panic at all.
He was well aware that the danger was nothing and that Su Changyu would save him at the critical moment.
However, Ye Ping also knew that Su Changyu did not attack immediately because he wanted to test and train him.
Otherwise, how could he grow if he kept pinning his hopes on others?
Besides, Ye Ping did not want Su Changyu to help him because that would only make him seem weak.
The thick fog obscured everything around him and blocked his vision.
Ye Ping sat cross-legged on the ground and looked around vigilantly. He was holding the Green Moon Dharmic Sword in his hand, ready to attack at any time.
Roar!
In an instant, a strange sound filled the air. It seemed to be the roar of a beast, but it also sounded like the cry of a human.
The sound was inexplicably frightening.
It was a kind of sound wave interference that made one fearful, lose their will to fight, weaken their spirit, and obliterate their will.
Ye Ping had seen the relevant information in the Sutra Pavilion, so he reacted immediately.
"Calm down."
Ye Ping warned himself not to lose his composure and just sit there quietly to observe the changes.
Humans were afraid of ghosts, and ghosts were afraid of humans.
The ghost cultivators were beings of extreme Yin while living people had Yang Qi. In the eyes of ghost cultivators, there were three balls of Yang fire on the top of a living person's head and shoulders. They were beings of extreme Yang.
Hence, ghosts were afraid of humans.
However, the three balls of Yang fire represented essence, Qi, and spirit. If one's essence, Qi, and spirit were weak, the Yang fire would be extinguished and the ghost cultivators would be able to take advantage of it.
"Those who indulge in excessive lust have weak spirits."
"Those who have insufficient Qi and blood have weak Qi."
"Those who have unstable willpower have weak spirits."
"Hence, if ghosts want to harm people, they will specially choose some people with weak physiques and then create illusions to make them lose their Yang Qi and eventually kill them."
"If the other party doesn't fall for it, they will create some terrifying scenes that will scare away the person's soul. Losing one's soul is the same as losing one's spirit, so these ghosts will often create these kinds of illusions to scare the soul."
"I don't indulge in lust and I cultivate the Godfiend Body and read the books of sages. My essence, Qi, and spirit are at their peak. Even ghost cultivators who are stronger than me probably don't dare to approach me."
Ye Ping muttered to himself. His faith and willpower were constantly strengthened and he was fearless.
He believed that these ghosts would not dare to approach him. Otherwise, why would they need to resort to so many tricks?
If they could attack directly, would these ghostly cultivators need to resort to so many tricks?
The more he thought about it, the more determined he became.
At this moment.
Within the dense fog, dozens of ghostly figures gathered together.
They ignored the fog and locked their gazes on the three people in the fog.
"Big Brother, the maze has been activated. What should we do next?"
A voice rang out. It was a skinny man who looked at a middle-aged man.
"This monk is not to be trifled with. He has a Buddhist artefact on him. Even if we join forces, we might not be able to devour him. So, don't provoke him."
"Let's eat those two. Same rules. You guys absorb the Yang Qi and give me the skin. I'm going to face the Ghost Tribulation soon, so I need a new body."
The middle-aged man said in a ghostly voice.
The rest of the ghostly cultivators nodded in agreement.
"Lan'er, go and seduce that person in the white crane robe. That guy looks like a lecher, but don't suck too hard. Leave a portion for everyone."
"Yang Wen, transform into the appearance of the White Crane Robe and trick that young man over. He's too close to that monk. I'm afraid that once we attack, that darn monk will spoil our plans."
"Remember, the Bewildering Formation can only last for two hours. After you succeed, leave immediately. Don't get caught by this monk, or your soul will be destroyed."
The middle-aged man said.
He gave the order and laid out the plan.
In an instant, two figures walked out.
There was a blue-clothed female ghost wearing a light muslin dress. She was quite pretty, and her attire made others feel deep veneration for her.
One of them transformed into Su Changyu, and there was almost no change in his appearance or aura.
This was the innate ability of ghost cultivators. Because they did not have a physical body, they could change into many different forms, but they could not last for long. Because their main bodies were ghosts, they could not disguise themselves for long, but they could deceive their enemies for a short period of time.
The two figures disappeared on the spot and turned into a wisp of green smoke that drifted towards Ye Ping and the others.
Right then.
In the thick fog.
Su Changyu sat on the spot obediently.
He was so flustered now.
He was so scared.
He didn't want to die here.
'Even if I die, can't I wait until the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet is over?'
He had finally managed to put on the embroidered white crane cloud robe that he had been dreaming of, but if he were to die on the way to the Sword Dao Meet, he would be really indignant about it.
"If I really die, I must become a vengeful ghost and kill all the ghosts that caused my death. I'm a good-for-nothing as a human, but I don't believe that I, Su Changyu, will be a good-for-nothing as a ghost!"
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Su Changyu secretly swore.
He had finally managed to put on the embroidered white crane cloud robe. If he really died on the way and failed to show off at the Sword Dao Meet, Su Changyu felt that he would definitely become a vengeful ghost because he couldn't take it lying down.
The deeper the obsession, the greater the resentment. When the time came, it was very likely that he would turn into a vengeful ghost.
At that time, there would be a perpetrator for every injustice, and there would be a debtor for every debt. Whoever harmed him, he would kill them.
He would destroy their soul.
At the thought of this, Su Changyu was somehow no longer afraid. Instead, he was even thinking about what he should do after he took revenge and whether he should return to the Qingyun Dao Sect or cultivate first.
While Su Changyu was letting his imagination run wild, a coquettish voice suddenly sounded.
"Help, help."
Although her voice was rather loud, it felt very gentle.
Su Changyu snapped back to his senses and subconsciously tightened his grip on the sword in his hand before looking in the direction of the voice.
Soon, a figure appeared in front of him from the thick fog.
It was a woman.
She was wearing a blue chiffon dress and had an excellent figure. Although she wasn't extremely beautiful and couldn't be compared to Chen Lingrou and Xiao Muxue, she was still rather good-looking.
The main reason was that she was wearing a chiffon dress. If it weren't for the thick fog, one would probably be able to see everything.
"Exalted Immortal, Exalted Immortal, save me, save me."
Before Su Changyu could react, the woman in blue pounced into his arms with a panicked expression. Her body trembled slightly as if she had been severely frightened.
"Girl, please keep your distance."
Su Changyu pushed the woman away and then stood up with an extremely solemn expression.
Su Changyu couldn't possibly not be on guard when a woman suddenly appeared in this godforsaken place. Although he felt that the woman in front of him was a living person, he was not a fool and hence, kept his guard up.
The woman in blue was stunned.
She didn't expect Su Changyu to push her away.
Even though she wasn't a peerless beauty, she could still be considered a first-class beauty, right?
Besides, she was wearing so little. Any man wouldn't bear to push her away.
She froze for a moment.
However, she soon snapped back to her senses and wiped her tears. She pretended to be apologetic and said, "Exalted Immortal, I was too flustered, please forgive me."
The woman in blue wiped her tears and looked pitiful. Apart from the fact that she was wearing scantily, she looked no different from an ordinary person. Su Changyu couldn't tell that she was a female ghost.
Su Changyu didn't say anything and remained aloof. The bewilderment in his eyes spoke volumes.
Sensing Su Changyu's gaze, the woman in blue hurriedly spoke up.
"Exalted Immortal, I'm the daughter of the Liu family of Jingping City. My family came out for an outing, but I didn't expect to encounter a strange wind that swept me here. I don't know where this is either, please save me."
As the woman in blue spoke, she inched closer again, looking extremely afraid.
When she got closer, she lowered her voice and spoke in a flirtatious manner.
"Exalted Immortal, if you can save me, I'll definitely serve you well."
She lowered her voice, making one's imagination run wild.
However, in the next moment, Su Changyu pushed the woman in blue away expressionlessly.
His expression was calm and his actions were extremely decisive.
The woman in blue was speechless.
She was a little confused. In the past, she had already begun to absorb Yang energy when she reached this step.
Why is Su Changyu so cold to me?
That doesn't make sense. '
"Exalted Immortal, are you afraid of me?"
The woman in blue couldn't help but ask with bewilderment in her eyes.
"No."
Su Changyu answered indifferently with two words.
"Exalted Immortal, do you not like my figure then?"
"Exalted Immortal, you may have misunderstood. I may look petite, but I'm hiding my strength."
The woman in blue continued to lower her voice and use words to provoke Su Changyu before approaching him again.
However, before she could pounce on him, Su Changyu pushed her away again. This time, there was a trace of anger in his eyes.
The woman in blue was speechless.
"Exalted Immortal, what exactly do you dislike about me?"
The woman in blue behaved herself this time and didn't approach him. However, she was a little angry.
'I took the initiative to come to you and you pushed me away three times in a row?'
'Do I still want my pride?'
At the same time, she couldn't understand why Su Changyu remained indifferent even though she took the initiative.
However, in the next moment …
Finally, Su Changyu answered with a cold and arrogant expression.
"I'm a disciple of Qingyun Dao Sect and I don't like women."
