Chapter 1 Desperate Escape

Yuan Muye completed the action in one breath, without any hesitation.

His figure vanished from the spot like a shadow.

Old Ancestor Guishan's pupils flashed with a hint of doubt upon seeing this, but it was immediately replaced by uncontrollable rage as he roared, "Don't even think about leaving!"

He paused for a moment, then transformed into a streak of black light, chasing after Yuan Muye with a speed that left the latter speechless.

He quickly felt the approaching Yin energy behind him.

"Damn it, this dog is so fast!"

Yuan Muye was shocked. He had activated the Lingbo Weibu (Micro Steps on the Water), reaching a speed of a hundred kilometers per hour, which was already quite fast.

But it seemed insufficient against Old Ancestor Guishan.

Seeing this, Yuan Muye quickly changed his strategy. He couldn't head towards Yanjiang County; he had to go somewhere else.

Otherwise, he would bring another great enemy to Yanjiang County.

Yuan Muye swiftly changed direction, but the evil ghost relentlessly pursued him.

They were almost neck and neck, separated by only a small distance.

It seemed he needed to upgrade his Lingbo Weibu to the second level; otherwise, it wouldn't be enough to save his life in the future.

Thinking this, Yuan Muye accelerated again, desperately running forward.

Old Ancestor Guishan, however, clung to him, refusing to let go.

"Kid, you won't escape today!"

The words landed like a thunderclap beside Yuan Muye's ears.

And in the next moment, a wave of Yin energy pressed down on Yuan Muye. Unable to dodge, he was directly struck in the back, and his body was severely injured.

Like a kite with a broken string, he tumbled forward.

He fell to the ground, spitting blood, his aura extremely chaotic. If he didn't escape now, he would surely die.

Just then, Yuan Xiaoyao's voice suddenly rang in Yuan Muye's ear, "Brother, get up quickly, run forward!"

The voice reminded him, and he quickly got up and started running forward, this time running faster than ever before.

As soon as Yuan Muye left the spot, it was instantly hit by a wave of Yin energy, creating a pit several meters deep in the ground.

Hearing the noise, Yuan Muye couldn't help but look back, and was instantly shocked.

If that palm had hit him, he would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die. Glancing back, Yuan Muye didn't dare to delay any longer and started running forward.

But Old Ancestor Guishan still clung to Yuan Muye, not planning to let him go.

What exactly was the strength of this old ghost? He was now at the mid-stage of the Ningyuan (Spirit Consolidation) realm, yet he was completely unable to compete with him, or even exchange blows. He could still manage a few moves against a sixth-level ghost general, but this situation was truly beyond Yuan Muye's expectations.

Terrifying!

That was the only way Yuan Muye could describe it.

Finally, after running for a while, the system's voice suddenly rang out, "Warning to the host, wrong direction..."

Hearing this, Yuan Muye was stunned for a few seconds. What did it mean, wrong direction?

Yuan Muye didn't understand at all.

But hearing the warning, Yuan Muye immediately came back to his senses and asked, "Which way should I run?"

"Left!"

Yuan Muye followed the system's prompt and started running forward.

Behind him, the furious roars of Old Ancestor Guishan continued to echo.

"Negative emotion points from Old Ancestor Guishan +999..."

Perhaps Old Ancestor Guishan chased after him for a while without catching up, and his anger flared up.

At this moment, a voice rang in Yuan Muye's ear, "Brother, don't run forward, it's very dangerous ahead."

Hearing Yuan Xiaoyao's voice, Yuan Muye paused for a few seconds. He was now a little hesitant. Should he listen to Yuan Xiaoyao or the system?

After hesitating for a while, Yuan Muye decided to listen to the system.

So he said, "It's okay, Xiaoyao."

Yuan Muye couldn't care so much at this moment, and soon ran towards the front. At this time, a forest appeared in front of him, with swirling Yin energy, giving people a very dangerous feeling.

Yuan Muye paused when he ran here, and immediately asked the system, "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

"No, go in quickly, or you will surely die."

The system's voice rang out.

Yuan Muye also knew that there was no better choice at this time.

He could only rush in headfirst.

When he entered the forest, the dark Yin energy inside pressed down on Yuan Muye, making his face very ugly. The visibility was also very low, even very low visibility.

"Kid, you actually dare to enter the Ghost Mist Forest, you just wait to die."

Old Ancestor Guishan's angry roar rang out.

Ghost Mist Forest?

Yuan Muye began to move forward. He didn't leave at this time, he just wanted to avoid the pursuit in front of him.

As for the consequences of entering this forest, he would think about it later.

At this time, Yuan Xiaoyao suddenly came out of the Big Fish Sword and appeared beside Yuan Muye. This time, Yuan Xiaoyao was obviously much bigger than before, looking like a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl.

Moreover, Yuan Muye could clearly feel that Yuan Xiaoyao had become a fifth-level ghost spirit.

Her strength had been greatly improved, and even her height had changed.

This made Yuan Muye a little surprised.

"Brother, it's very dangerous here."

Yuan Xiaoyao continued to say to Yuan Muye at this time.

"I know, we'll stay here for a while, and then we'll leave here."

Yuan Muye had no better way now.

At this time, his face was as pale as paper, and his expression was very ugly. In this state, if Yuan Muye encountered Old Ancestor Guishan after going out, he would surely die.

"Xiaoyao, how do you feel?"

This place should be very helpful to Yuan Xiaoyao.

Yuan Xiaoyao was also very direct and said, "Brother, the Yin energy here is very heavy, which is helpful to my cultivation."

"That's good."

Yuan Muye said.

At this time, Yuan Muye suddenly asked the system, "System, how long do I have to wait before I can go out?"

As soon as Yuan Muye finished speaking, the system said, "You can't go out now. Reminder to the host, start the main quest."

Hearing this, Yuan Muye was stunned for a few seconds. He could actually start the main quest here.

Yuan Muye was seriously injured now. Starting the main quest in this place, wasn't that courting death?

"What is the main quest?"

"The second main quest, cultivate the second ghost body..."

Yuan Muye was stunned for a few seconds after receiving this reminder.

The second ghost body? What was that?

Yuan Muye immediately asked the doubts in his heart, and the system did not delay, and soon gave Yuan Muye a user manual.

After receiving this user manual, he quickly read it.

After reading it, he suddenly looked like he had suddenly realized.

So that's what the second ghost body meant?

It was to become another kind of physique on the original basis.
