In a mountain range somewhere in the Land of the Fallen Gods.
Dozens of wandering souls were attacking two women. They were both ghost cultivators. One was dressed in green and the other in green. They were both at the Fifth Realm and were struggling to fend off the waves of wandering souls.
Some of the wandering souls were at the Fifth Realm while the rest were at the Fourth and Third Realms. The two women were barely able to fend them off. However, there were more and more wandering souls flying out from the mountain range. Soon, they were defeated and surrounded by countless wandering souls.
The female ghost in green sighed, "Sister Lin, it seems like we're really going to die here."
The female ghost in green pushed back a few wandering souls and said, "We've already died once. At most, we'll die again. Are you afraid of death?"
The female ghost in green shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid of death, but I don't want to die now. I haven't repaid my benefactor …"
The female ghost in green looked at her and said, "I'll do everything I can to escort you out of here. If you can leave here alive, I want you to leave the Ghost Realm and help me pass on a message …"
The female ghost in green sighed and said, "Sister Lin, do you think we still have a chance to leave here alive? Sigh, if I had known, I would have advised you not to come in. Although the Heavenly Book is good, we need to be alive to get it …"
"I have a reason why I had to come."
The female ghost in green looked determined and said, "Now, what I'm going to tell you is very important. If you can leave here alive, you must go to Yangqiu County in the Great Zhou's North County and help me pass on this message …"
She whispered a few words to the female ghost in green. Then, she rushed towards the wandering souls without hesitation. The mana in her body fluctuated rapidly. It was obvious that she was going to explode her soul in exchange for a chance for her companion to escape.
The female ghost in green wanted to stop her, but it was too late. She stood there, not knowing what to do. The female ghost in green suddenly turned around and said loudly, "Do you want me to die for nothing?!"
The female ghost in green looked sad. Taking advantage of the moment when she stopped the wandering souls, she flew away without looking back.
However, it seemed that the soul energy ripples of the green-clothed female ghost were too strong, causing a commotion among the wandering souls in front of them. More wandering souls surged over from all directions and surrounded them. Among them, there were a few that emitted sixth level cultivation ripples. The two girls had no chance of escaping.
The female ghost in green flew down and stood beside her. She shook her head and said, "It seems that we are going to die together today."
This wave of wandering souls was not something they could resist. Facing the powerful wandering souls, the green-clothed female ghost held her hand and closed their eyes, quietly waiting for their end.
At this moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly descended from the sky.
When the wandering souls touched the golden light, they let out ear-piercing screams and retreated. Two figures landed in front of the two women.
The two women opened their eyes and felt that the golden light was very warm and very familiar.
Looking at his back, the two women exclaimed at the same time.
"Benefactor!"
"Benefactor!"
…
When the young man turned around, what they saw was an unfamiliar face. This caused them to be stunned, and at the same time, they became confused.
Li Mu looked at the two female ghosts in front of him and asked in surprise, "Miss Lin, Xiao Yu, why are you two together?"
Hearing this familiar voice, the green-clothed female ghost trembled and said excitedly, "Benefactor, it's really you!"
The green-clothed female ghost immediately floated over and said happily, "Benefactor, I, I'm not dreaming, am I …"
When he was above, Li Mu sensed these two familiar auras. One of them was Lin Wan, whom he met in Yangqiu County and was killed by her fiancé. Later, she turned into a female ghost and was saved by Su He.
After Li Mu helped her solve the case, she went to the Ghost Realm.
The other was Xiao Yu, who died unjustly and turned into a malicious ghost. What she did after she lost her mind was not tolerated by the imperial court. After staying in the Jinshan Temple for a while, she also came to the Ghost Realm.
Back then, Xiao Yu's cultivation was at the fifth realm, and now she was close to the peak of the fifth realm.
Back then, Lin Wan's cultivation was only at the second realm, and now she was at the peak of the fifth realm. Counting it, she was only a little slower than Li Mu's cultivation. Even so, it was incredible.
Li Mu looked at them and asked curiously, "How did the two of you know each other? Also, Miss Lin's cultivation has improved so quickly …"
Lin Wan explained, "When I first came to the Ghost Realm, I accidentally entered the Unknown Lands because I didn't know the way. Fortunately, I didn't die, and I even encountered some fortuitous encounters. That's why I was able to cultivate to the Spectre realm so quickly. As for Little Sister Xiao Yu, we didn't know each other at first, but a few years ago, the Hall of Souls tried to recruit us. Little Sister Xiao Yu and I couldn't defeat the Hall of Souls alone, so we worked together to resist them …"
Li Mu shook his head and said, "Even though your cultivation is not bad, you shouldn't have come here to take the risk."
Speaking of this, Lin Wan remembered something more important. The joy of seeing her benefactor was diluted, and she said nervously, "Benefactor, Big Sister Su is in danger!"
Hearing those words from her mouth, Li Mu's heart clenched. He quickly asked, "What happened to her?"
Lin Wan said worriedly, "Big Sister Su obtained that page of the Heavenly Book and was pursued by the experts of the Ghost Realm. She fled to the Land of the Fallen Gods. I came here to find her …"
"What!?"
Li Mu's expression finally changed. He never thought that the one who obtained the Heavenly Book would be Su He. With her cultivation, it was impossible for her to survive in the Land of the Fallen Gods …
Even if she could avoid the spatial cracks that could be seen everywhere, she wouldn't be able to deal with these powerful wandering souls …
At this moment, Li Mu no longer cared about the danger. He immediately took out a page of the Heavenly Book and closed his eyes to sense it. Just like last time, there were two places in the Land of the Fallen Gods that had the aura of the Heavenly Book. The two pages of the Heavenly Book were very far away from him. One of them was moving at high speed. When Li Mu took out the Heavenly Book, that aura paused for a moment before changing direction and rapidly approaching him.
Li Mu ignored it and focused on sensing the other aura.
This aura was in the depths of the Land of the Fallen Gods. It was motionless and seemed to still be in its original position. Li Mu didn't know if that page of the Heavenly Book was still with Su He, but the other Heavenly Book was moving faster and faster. Li Mu didn't hesitate and immediately put away the Heavenly Book in his hand.
Just now, he felt an extreme sense of danger in his heart again.
Li Mu didn't need divination to know that the owner of that page of the Heavenly Book had a terrifying cultivation level. To be able to move at such speed in the Land of the Fallen Gods, even an ordinary Seventh Realm cultivator couldn't do that.
In other words, the person who had that page of the Heavenly Book was at least at the peak of the Seventh Realm, if not the Eighth Realm. That was an existence that Li Mu couldn't fight against at the moment.
He could sense that person, and that person could also sense Li Mu. The moment he took out the Heavenly Book, his position was exposed.
Li Mu made a prompt decision. "We can't stay here for long. Both of you, attach yourself to me. We have to leave immediately …"
The closer they got to the center of the Land of the Fallen Gods, the more unstable the space became. It was also harder to open the Flask Space. It was fine to take out small items like the Heavenly Book, but if a cultivator with a high cultivation level traveled back and forth between the two spaces, it would accelerate the collapse of the space. There was even the risk of the cave's space being affected.
Li Mu let the two women attach themselves to him. He held Shangguan Li's hand and quickly flew away from this place.
Not long after, the fog in a certain direction rolled, and a white-robed figure appeared.
The woman looked around, her expression as calm as a pool of stagnant water. She said softly, "You can't run away …"
