Only Ji Tianxing and the owner of the Heavenly Eagle District were left in the study.
The owner of the Heavenly Eagle District frowned at Ji Tianxing and asked in a low voice, "Little fellow, why did you suddenly ask about curses? Did you run into some trouble? "
"That's right." Ji Tianxing did not hide anything and explained, "My friend and I were attacked by a group of black-robed men outside Spirit Flame City."
"Those black-robed men were not humans but puppets formed from vengeful spirits and curses …"
Hearing this, the owner of the Heavenly Eagle District's brows knitted tightly together and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
He was silent for a moment and looked at Ji Tianxing seriously. He asked in a low voice, "Little fellow, do you know that vengeful spirits and curses are taboo in Spirit Flame City?"
"If I tell you that you might lose your life if you continue investigating … will you still investigate this matter?"
Seeing the owner of the Heavenly Eagle District's reaction, Ji Tianxing understood that the person who used the cursed puppets to attack him must be very powerful and made the owner of the Heavenly Eagle District fearful.
However, he still nodded without hesitation and said, "I will!"
The owner of the Heavenly Eagle District looked at him deeply and his lips curled into a playful smile. "Haha, little fellow, you're getting more and more interesting."
"Since you're not afraid of death, I'll give you a clue! As for whether you can investigate thoroughly and whether you'll lose your life because of this, it has nothing to do with me. "
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, owner, for granting my wish."
The owner of the Heavenly Eagle District raised his brows and said in a low voice, "There are four districts in Spirit Flame City — East, South, West, and North. My East District and the North and South Districts of the other two overlords are more prosperous and prosperous. There will definitely not be any demons and monsters hiding there."
"Alright, that's all I have to say. I have nothing else to say."
With that, the owner of the Heavenly Eagle District waved his hand, indicating that Ji Tianxing could leave.
Ji Tianxing memorized the owner's words and understood his meaning after pondering for a moment.
"Thank you for your advice, owner. I'll take my leave now!"
Ji Tianxing bowed to the owner of the Heavenly Eagle Workshop and left the study.
Director Lei personally sent him off and only parted ways at the entrance of the gambling house.
The owner of the Heavenly Eagle Workshop was still seated in front of the table. He frowned and pondered for a moment before muttering to himself.
"This kid has a connection with the Ghost Realm of the West City. I'm afraid there will be a good show to watch soon …"
At the same time, Ji Tianxing left Sky Eagle Casino with Yun Yao and Long Yunxiao.
The three of them walked on the dark and deserted street. Seeing that there was no one around, Long Yunxiao asked, "Ji Tianxing, have you heard anything useful?"
"Yes." Ji Tianxing nodded and said solemnly, "Let's go to the West District and start the investigation there."
Long Yunxiao didn't ask for the specific reason and followed Ji Tianxing to the West District.
An hour later, the three of them had traversed more than half of Spirit Flame City and arrived at the western district.
It was already the middle of the night. The entire Spirit Flame City was silent and had fallen into a deep sleep.
The three of them had just entered the West District when they realized that something was wrong.
The three of them stopped at the entrance of an old and dirty street and looked around with solemn expressions.
Under the dim night sky, the entire street was as dark as ink. Not a single light could be seen.
Although there were rows upon rows of houses and buildings within a few hundred meters in all directions, they were all dilapidated.
Moreover, there were no lights or signs of human habitation in those old and dilapidated houses. They were filled with a cold and deathly stillness.
Yun Yao frowned and said in a low voice, "This area is like a ghost town. It's filled with a cold and deathly aura and a strong demonic aura."
Long Yunxiao nodded solemnly and said, "Since Yao Yao can sense a strong demonic aura, this should be the place."
Ji Tianxing's sharp eyes observed the surroundings and reminded them in a low voice, "This place is very strange. Everyone should be careful."
The three of them were on high alert as they walked forward.
The rustling sound of their footsteps was extremely obvious in the deathly stillness of the night.
Wherever the three of them passed, faint rustling sounds could be heard from the old houses and courtyards on both sides of the street.
Ji Tianxing used his spirit sense to investigate and saw that many poisonous snakes, scorpions, centipedes, and all kinds of poisonous insects were crawling out of those pitch-black houses and courtyards.
Not only that, but there were also some hazy white and black figures in some of the houses and courtyards. They were faintly discernible as they drifted through the houses and courtyards.
If a timid person was in such a gloomy environment and saw such a terrifying scene, they would definitely be scared witless.
Fifteen minutes later, the three of them walked along the old and dilapidated street and stopped at a crossroads.
Old and pitch-black streets extended in all four directions of the crossroads.
The three of them released their spirit sense to investigate their surroundings and found that the situation was a little strange.
Ji Tianxing frowned and said, "Something's wrong! The streets on all sides of this crossroads seem to be exactly the same. "
Yun Yao nodded and said, "Not only are the streets the same, but the houses on both sides are also the same. There are many poisonous insects, snakes, ants, and ghosts hiding inside."
Obviously, she had also used her spirit sense to investigate those ghostly figures hiding in the darkness.
Long Yunxiao raised his eyebrows and a playful sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He said in a deep voice, "Hehe, there's actually such a gloomy ghost town hidden in the city where the human race lives!"
"This Lord wants to see what kind of fiend or ghost dares to run rampant like this!"
His tone was sonorous and powerful, and his whole body faintly exuded an awe-inspiring righteous aura.
It was precisely because his Heavenly Thunder Sacred Body exuded a pure Yang aura that those snakes, insects, and ghosts didn't dare to show up easily, let alone approach.
Ji Tianxing looked around and observed for a moment before he found some clues.
"If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid we've already entered a maze."
"No matter which street we go along, we'll be circling around in the maze and will never be able to get out."
Long Yunxiao raised his hands and formed a mysterious incantation. He waved his hands and drew arcs in the air, performing a secret technique.
"Heavenly Thunder Heart of Five Thunders, Mysterious Secret Technique, Earth Surging Astral Fire, Heaven Holding Magic Eye!"
As he muttered, a purple brilliance surged between his hands. He wiped his eyes, and his pupils immediately turned dark purple.
Suddenly, his eyes became deep and mysterious, and his eyes were sharp and filled with righteous aura.
He looked around and immediately saw thousands of light veins faintly appearing in the night sky. They were as dense as a spider web, condensing into a maze.
There were also wisps of dark green flames floating in the night sky. In the dark corners of the surrounding streets, as well as in the depths of the ground, there were countless white skeletons hidden.
Even the slowly wriggling venomous snakes and insects in the houses on both sides of the street were transformed from gray skeletons and ghosts.
Seeing this scene, his face suddenly changed, and he said in a serious tone, "There's indeed a maze here, and it's a Heaven Prime maze."
"The area within a radius of one thousand meters is covered by the maze. Who knows how many skeletons and ghosts are buried in the old houses and in the depths of the ground."
"The other party must have expected that we would come here, so they set up this maze in advance, waiting for us to walk into the trap!"
