Ghost Rider Sect!
Ye Chen found out from Su Tao's memory that the sect came from ancient times. It was a long time ago and was suspected to have been founded in the Shang Dynasty.
The sect was an expert in the Ghost Control Technique. They dominated a region back then, but nobody knew why they disappeared until Bai Zhanyuan discovered them.
There was a formation at the Ghost Rider Sect's mountain gate, so it was difficult for ordinary people to enter. Therefore, Bai Zhanyuan wanted to use her as a blood sacrifice to break the formation after finding out that she had a pure yin body.
However, in Ye Chen's opinion, it would not be difficult to break such a formation even at its peak. Moreover, after so many years, the formation's power was almost exhausted.
"Six Ding Six Armor Formation?"
Ye Chen chuckled softly and lifted his hand to perform a set of hand seals to break the seal. However, at that moment, Su Yuhan suddenly walked to the core of the formation.
Just when he wanted to stop her, he realized that the formation was useless against her.
"This?"
Ye Chen thought to himself and went after her immediately. He was worried that something might happen to her. Ye Wushuang went after them while carrying Mengmeng.
This time, Ye Chen could see it more clearly. With every step Su Yuhan took, the formation would weaken a little.
"How is this possible?!"
Ye Chen could not help but be shocked.
One had to know that the Ghost Rider Sect's mountain gate array had already been activated. Unless one was an array master or a person who created the array, it was impossible for them not to be attacked by the array.
Ten minutes later.
Su Yuhan had already walked into the formation, and the group entered a long swimming lane.
Whoosh!
The candles around the walls suddenly lit up, leading to the end of the swimming lane. The walls around the swimming lane were engraved with all kinds of scary ghost faces.
Su Yuhan suddenly stopped walking. She looked puzzled. "Ye Chen, I think this place is rather familiar."
"Have you been here before?" Ye Chen asked.
"No!"
Su Yuhan shook her head lightly and said in a daze, "It's my first time here, but I don't know why I find this place familiar as if I've been here before."
At this point, she paused for a moment before continuing, "And I keep feeling that something inside is calling out to me."
As soon as he said that.
Ye Chen's expression changed slightly. He could not help but turn his head to glance at Ye Wushuang behind him. They saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
At that moment, Su Yuhan walked forward again, and she was walking faster and faster.
"Slow down, Yuhan!" Ye Chen reminded her and caught up with her.
More than ten minutes later, the group reached the end of the passageway. In front of them was a heavy stone door. There were all kinds of patterns carved on the stone door. It looked like a map of hell.
There were a few twisted characters on the stone door.
Shockingly, it was!
Anyone who enters this door will die!
Under the illumination of the surrounding candlelight, these five words were faintly green, giving off an indescribable eerie feeling.
Mengmeng pounced into Ye Chen's embrace, feeling rather scared. "Daddy!"
"Wushuang, open the door!" Ye Chen said.
Ye Wushuang nodded and took two steps forward. Subsequently, he pressed his hand on the stone door.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't push it open.
"Allow me!"
She stretched her hand out and turned the base of the first candle first, then the sixth candle's base. "That's right," Su Yuhan said all of a sudden and walked straight to a row of candles.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the previously extremely heavy stone door automatically opened with a loud bang.
A heavy and oppressive aura came from the crack of the door.
Su Yuhan was going in.
Ye Chen pulled her back immediately and said in his deep voice, "How did you know about the mechanism on the stone door?"
"I-I've no idea!"
Su Yuhan looked lost. She shook her head and said, "There seemed to be a flash of inspiration in my head, and I figured it out."
Ye Chen's expression turned grim upon hearing that. "Yuhan, let's go back. We're not going in!"
His instinct told him that something was wrong.
Su Yuhan had never been here before, and she was a mortal. However, the Ghost Rider Sect mountain gate formation that gave Bai Zhanyuan a headache was useless against her. She even seemed to be very familiar with this place. She even knew about the mechanism on the stone door.
To be on the safe side, he decided not to go in. He would come back alone at most!
"No!"
Su Yuhan, who had always been obedient, shook her head at that moment. She looked at him with a begging expression. "Ye Chen, d-don't go. The feeling is getting stronger. I must go in. Don't worry. I'll be fine."
"Sure, but I'll walk in front!"
Ye Chen nodded and took a step forward. He walked through the gap of the stone door while grabbing Su Yuhan tightly at the same time.
An eerie wind blew.
A dim stone room came into sight. It was over 300 meters wide like a hall. There were hundreds of luminous pearls embedded in the walls around.
However, everyone had their eyes on the stone platform in the middle of the stone room.
The stone platform was merely three meters tall. It was entirely red as if it was drenched in fresh blood. Meanwhile, there were some gigantic bronze cauldrons placed around it.
The bronze cauldrons were of different shapes. There were all sorts of birds, beasts, insects, and fishes carved on them. Emerald flames were coming out of the cauldrons at the moment, giving the entire stone room an eerie feeling.
There were countless skeletons scattered under its feet. There were humans and beasts, but most of them had already decayed.
It was an altar!
Ye Chen's pupils shrunk slightly.
The so-called altar was a tool that was used for sacrificial activities.
Sacrificial activities existed in the most primitive society on Earth. It was usually a prayer activity that people performed to show respect to God.
Especially during the feudal period, sacrifices were often made. These sacrifices could be grains, livestock, or even people.
The most typical example was during the reign of King Zhou of Shang, who used living people as sacrifices.
Even in the Cultivation World, this kind of sacrificial ceremony still existed, but most of them were evil methods, and the objects of the sacrificial ceremony were mostly demons.
Ye Chen had witnessed it with his own eyes. An evil sect had destroyed a stellar zone and used tens of billions of people in that stellar zone as a sacrifice to summon an extraterrestrial demon.
Su Yuhan wanted to walk to the altar by instinct, but Ye Chen held onto her tightly. He accidentally stepped on a mechanism with his left foot.
Ka ka!
The ground immediately trembled, and the entire stone chamber began to tremble.
The next moment.
Not far away from the altar, waves of black gas emerged. As soon as the black gas rose into the air, it turned into black shadows. Illusory faces appeared on the black shadows, accompanied by all kinds of strange cries.
All of a sudden.
The entire stone chamber seemed to have turned into a ghost town. Hundreds of ghosts were circling around, wailing and howling.
Ye Chen protected Su Yuhan behind him by instinct.
"Hehehe …"
The spirits that filled the air lingered in the stone chamber. All of a sudden, they charged at Ye Chen with an eerie wind.
