Su Yu couldn't help but wonder if the person inside was really Gu Taixu.
It had only been a year, and his cultivation had already reached a level where he could compete with a Great Saint?
"Alright, thank you for telling me." Su Yu cupped his fists.
The stone man chuckled. "Anyway, I advise you to leave as soon as possible, especially at night."
The stone man looked at the sky meaningfully. A mass of dark clouds obscured the moon, making the world even darker. A hint of fear appeared in the stone men's eyes.
"Let's go!" They left first, not daring to stay a moment longer.
Su Yu watched them leave. Only then did he realize that the nearby territories were gradually releasing powerful defensive spells, as if guarding against something dangerous.
Bai Xue hugged her arms and shivered. "What kind of territory did you choose? It sounds like it's going to kill someone. "
Su Yu narrowed his eyes and stared at the vast territory. "Wrong, it should be that we're here for this ghost's orders!"
Clang!
Su Yu took a step forward and kicked open the cobweb-covered door. A gust of cold air rushed out.
There was obviously a cold and gloomy air current lingering in the area around the territory.
"Hey, do you really want to go in?" Bai Xue was quite resistant, even regretting accompanying Su Yu.
Su Yu's mouth twitched. "You're a Great Saint, why are you afraid?"
Bai Xue muttered, "Of course I'm afraid! Who knows what's inside? "
While she was muttering, Su Yu had already fearlessly stepped into the territory.
Woo woo woo —
As soon as he entered, he could hear the faint cries of ghosts lingering in his ears.
The voice was sometimes near, sometimes far, sometimes near. One moment, it seemed to come from the horizon, and the next moment, it seemed to come from behind.
"Ah! Let's go, this is definitely a haunted house! " The sound of a ghost wailing rang out in Bai Xue's ears without warning. She screamed in fright and hugged Su Yu's arm tightly.
Su Yu was unfazed. He scanned the surroundings with his Soul Eyes.
After a long time, he slowly nodded. "This place is indeed a haunted house!"
He was a little surprised. Gu Taixu's Nine Spirits Body was not a cold technique, so it shouldn't have created such a sinister environment.
This place was extremely similar to the land of ghost cultivators.
"Let's go and take a look at the former owner's mansion." If they wanted to find the culprit, they had to pass through that place.
Bai Xue's intestines turned green with regret. "How unlucky can I be to meet you? Ever since I met you, nothing good has happened."
Su Yu sped towards the mansion. Bai Xue looked left and right, suddenly feeling a breath of cold air on the back of her neck. She got goosebumps and screamed as she rushed over to hug Su Yu's arm.
As Su Yu passed by, the ordinary cities along the way fell into a deathly silence.
The cities were all deserted.
Weeds grew, houses collapsed, and mottled marks crawled all over the buildings.
It was hard to believe that this place had only been abandoned for a few months.
It looked as if no one had lived in it for hundreds of years. It was extremely gloomy.
The two of them walked like this. In this boundless territory, only the two of them were alive.
"Let's go back. Don't go any further. It's even more sinister ahead." The two of them stopped by a river.
Beyond the river was a pitch-black forest.
The leafless forest was like a monster baring its fangs and claws, waiting for the living to enter.
Air currents flowed in the pitch-black forest, as if there was something moving within.
Suddenly, Bai Xue's pupils dilated. There was a translucent, half-tangible woman in white, her hair disheveled, flashing past the forest.
Then, the bone-chilling sound of a woman crying could be heard from within the forest.
"Accompany me … Who … Accompany me …"
Bai Xue's blood flowed faster, her fingers grabbing onto Su Yu's arm digging into his flesh. Her eyes widened as she stammered, "There's … a … ghost …"
Her teeth were chattering.
Su Yu felt his scalp go numb. He had thought that the woman had been an illusion. His Soul Eyes could not detect any soul ripples.
Even Bai Xue could see it.
Su Yu's muscles were a little stiff. This place was indeed a little sinister.
"Hmph! Demons and monsters! "Su Yu forced himself to remain calm. Since he had entered, how could he leave empty-handed?
He took out the Great Scythe of Ten Thousand Tribulations and slashed at the pitch-black forest.
Whoosh — —
The Great Scythe of Ten Thousand Tribulations released a terrifying aura that swept across in an arc, slicing a large patch of the forest in half.
It was a shocking sight to behold.
The commotion caused by the scythe drowned out the woman's cries.
Bai Xue felt a little more at ease, lifting her gaze to look at the forest.
She had thought that her gaze would be able to see through the forest after it had been flattened. But there was still a tree standing within the forest.
No, that was not a tree!
It was a pitch-black giant!
"Ah!" Bai Xue screamed again, closing her eyes in fear.
Su Yu growled, "Don't scream, shut up!"
He stared at the giant, flicking his finger. A beam of light shot out, illuminating the giant.
Bai Xue opened her eyes a little, using the light to look. She let out a sigh of relief, patting her chest. "So it's a statue."
It was a giant black Buddha statue, hidden by a group of tall trees.
"That scared me." Bai Xue relaxed.
But Su Yu took a step back, his expression serious. "Something's not right!"
How powerful was a strike from the Great Scythe of Ten Thousand Tribulations? Even a Great Saint would be killed if he did not defend himself.
But how could the statue block the attack of the Great Scythe of Ten Thousand Tribulations?
There was something wrong with the statue!
As expected!
With a creaking sound, the statue's eyes opened!
A pair of scarlet eyes glowed coldly in the night sky. The Buddha's mouth slowly opened, revealing a mouth full of sharp fangs.
Putrid saliva dripped from the fangs.
"Accompany me … Accompany me … All of you, accompany me!" The black statue's voice grew shriller and shriller.
Then, he took big strides and chased after them. "Come and accompany me!!!"
Bai Xue's body went limp with fear. She could not use her Great Saint abilities.
Su Yu had goosebumps all over, but he could only endure it.
"Die!" This time, Su Yu used his full strength, swinging the Great Scythe of Ten Thousand Tribulations.
This sweep was twice as powerful as the previous one.
The huge arc passed through the statue's waist, and with a crisp crack, the statue broke into two pieces.
The upper half of its body flew tens of thousands of feet, arriving in front of Su Yu and the others.
