Luo Ziwen looked outside through the window, and waited until Chen Lin disappeared in the crowd before retracting his gaze. He whispered, "It shouldn't be this person. If someone with such a high level of cultivation is sent to kill me, then they are underestimating me too much!"
Then he looked puzzled, "Is it really an accident?"
But he immediately shook his head. "Impossible. How could the teleportation array that has been running for thousands of years without any problems go wrong when it comes to me, and at this critical moment?"
"What on earth is this place? I've never heard of such a strange place existing on the Starry Continent?"
Luo Ziwen muttered to himself as he thought, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.
Suddenly, his expression changed drastically, as if he had thought of something. He stood up and hurried downstairs.
Chen Lin walked around the town and asked a lot of people, and was roughly sure that what Luo Ziwen said was true.
This place is indeed called Ferry Town, it has no other name. The surrounding space seems to have an invisible barrier, making it impossible to leave.
There is a wide river on one side of the town. You can't see the beginning or the end, nor can you see the opposite bank. If the water was not flowing from one side to the other, you couldn't tell that it was a river.
The river water was as black as ink, giving off a very strange smell, and it looked very dangerous at first glance.
Obviously, this town does not exist in reality, but like the previous scene, it is an incomprehensible illusion.
Chen Lin stood in front of the ferry, looking at the other side of the river, feeling depressed.
I spent a huge amount of money to purchase the teleportation qualification just for safety, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. If I had known earlier, I would have used the single-person teleportation array on Island No. 9.
"The ferry will appear tomorrow, but you have to survive tonight to see it. Don't be fooled by the peacefulness here during the day. It's very scary at night!"
A voice sounded behind me.
Chen Lin turned around and saw Luo Ziwen standing behind him, also looking across the river.
"Why, will the people here mutate at night?"
He did not find out this information, and his heart sank.
The people in Guqiao Village will turn into ghosts at night and cannot be killed, but there are few people in the village, so he can use the Soul-Destroying Finger to kill them. There are so many people in this town that his soul power cannot support it, not to mention that he doesn't know if there will be a more advanced existence than the old man with the pipe.
"good!"
Luo Ziwen nodded and said, "Not only does it mutate, but it is also very ferocious. It is especially sensitive to the breath of living people and is impossible to avoid. Even with my Jindan stage cultivation, I have been exhausted in dealing with it these days."
After listening to this, Chen Lin sighed and said nothing.
Things have come to this point and cannot be changed. We can only face it head on. Moreover, in a place like this, if everything were normal, it would be abnormal.
Instead, he was more puzzled by another thing and asked, "Since one person is taken away by the ferry every month, the population of the town should be decreasing. Why are there still so many? Is there a source of replenishment?"
Luo Ziwen shook his head, his face darkening: "No need to guess, I already know where this place is. I came to you now just to ask Brother Chen to do me a favor!"
Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, then said in surprise: "Fellow Daoist Luo knows this place, what's going on, how can we get out?"
"Get out?" Luo Ziwen said with a strange look: "There is no other way, the only way is to forcefully break through the space!"
After saying that, he immediately added: "And we must leave before the ferry appears, otherwise there will be no chance!"
"What do you mean?"
Chen Lin's face changed slightly. Just now in the restaurant, the other party looked leisurely and seemed to not care about the danger here. Unexpectedly, he became so anxious in a blink of an eye. This place might not be simple.
"snort!"
Luo Ziwen snorted coldly and said angrily: "This is not some ghost place at all, but the inner space of the Lingbao Huangquan Map!"
“Lingbao!”
Chen Lin was shocked.
He had heard from the Silver Fairy that this magical treasure belonged to a super powerful person in the southern world of immortal cultivation and was extremely strange and powerful.
But is it worth it for them to use such a treasure with their cultivation level? Isn't it a bit exaggerated
In a flash, he came back to his senses, stared at the other party with an unpleasant expression and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Luo knows so clearly, I guess someone must have used this magic treasure against you, and the interruption of the transmission channel was also caused by this magic treasure?"
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel very depressed. It was obvious that he was an innocent victim, and the other party was able to use magical treasures to deal with him. The other party's strength and identity were probably extraordinary.
Seeing Chen Lin's look, Luo Ziwen said in a deep voice: "Yes, they are coming for me. Fellow Daoist Chen has been affected, but there is no need to worry too much. The spiritual treasure Huangquan Map is the most precious treasure of Xuanyin Immortal City. It is impossible and dare not be taken outside Xuanyin Immortal City. So this is just a replica, probably the lowest-grade disposable replica. If it is the authentic Huangquan Map, you and I would have been deprived of our minds and become part of the spiritual treasure!"
The other party's words did not reassure Chen Lin.
The person who took action did not hesitate to offend Xuanguan Immortal City and destroy the transmission, and also used such a treasure. He must have made full preparations to kill with one blow. How could he be easily resolved
He frowned and said, "Imitations are fake spiritual treasures. With our Jindan cultivation, it's probably not that easy to break the space formed by fake spiritual treasures. Or is it that Daoist Luo's real cultivation is not at the early Jindan stage, but at the Yuanying stage?"
A hint of anticipation appeared on Chen Lin's face.
Anyone who can allow someone to use a magical treasure to launch a sneak attack must be a Yuanying-level master. If the other party is a Yuanying-level True Lord and knows the truth, there should be hope of escaping.
"Haha, you think too highly of me. If I were a Nascent Soul cultivator, would I be trapped here for such a long time?"
Luo Ziwen glanced at Chen Lin speechlessly.
Then he changed the subject and said, "But I did hide something before. In fact, I am not in the early stage of Jindan, but in the late stage of Jindan. Even so, it is not so easy to break through this space. I must find the space node here."
After saying this, he turned his gaze towards the river again, took a few steps forward, and said solemnly: "Time is running out. If we can't leave tonight, the moment the ferry appears tomorrow, it will be the day we both die!"
Without waiting for Chen Lin to ask, he explained: "The one-time pseudo-spiritual treasure is of low level. Although it has some spiritual treasure characteristics, it takes a certain amount of time to activate it. Therefore, so many strange scenes are set up in it to interfere with the thinking of the trapped people and delay time. The ultimate goal is to manifest the ferry. The ferry should be the spiritual charm of the pseudo-spiritual treasure. Not to mention Jindan-level cultivators like you and me, even ordinary Yuanying cultivators can hardly resist it!"
"So what should we do?"
Chen Lin's expression also became serious.
Although he also has a pseudo spiritual treasure in his hand, because the level of the demon soul he uses is too low, its power is the weakest one. It is estimated that it is impossible to have the power to break through the space, so he still has to rely on the other party.
Luo Ziwen said coldly: "Fortunately, we found it in time, giving us one night, so we didn't die here inexplicably. As long as I find the node, I will have a way to break the space here! In addition, I suspect that the node is on a certain ghost, so no matter what, tonight, you and I must join forces to kill all the ghosts here!"
Chen Lin swallowed his saliva and said, "This is a bit difficult, right? The ghosts I encountered are all immortal. After being killed, they will be resurrected soon. I wonder if it is the same in this town?"
He didn't know what methods the other party had, but with his ability, he definitely couldn't kill all the ghosts in the town in one night.
If there is enough time, there is hope. After all, the ghosts killed by the Soul-Destroying Finger cannot be resurrected.
"They are all the same." Luo Ziwen gave an affirmative answer, and then continued: "But the reason why these ghosts can be resurrected is that they rely on the replenishment of Yin Qi in this space. As long as we keep killing them and make sure that their Yin Qi cannot be replenished, we can kill them completely!"
After saying that, he stared at Chen Lin and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, although I have some skills, I cannot kill so many ghosts by myself. The one who attacked me must have calculated this. If the ghosts cannot be killed overnight, they will regroup during the day, and we don't have time to come again. So if you have any skills, don't hide them. If you can leave safely, I will definitely compensate you!"
"good!"
Although this unexpected disaster was caused by the other party, their lives and deaths are now tied together, so Chen Lin naturally knows the severity of the situation.
He felt that the other party was not lying, because there was no need to. The gap between their cultivation levels was so huge, if the other party wanted to harm him, he could just do it directly.
The two reached an agreement and stood in front of the ferry to start discussing and communicating.
Soon, the sky gradually darkened.
Just like the village when we came in, when the time reached a certain point, the entire town was immediately paused.
There was a moment of stillness at first, and then a strong cold wind blew and a ghostly aura filled the air!
The townspeople, who had various poses during the day, now looked hideous. Some were missing arms or legs, and some were even holding their own heads. However, they moved freely and with great aura.
Among them, there are at least dozens of people with extremely strong auras, and each one is more terrifying than the old man who smokes a pipe!
"Here they come. Fellow Daoist Chen, be careful. The ghosts here are more powerful than those in the village before. I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of you!"
The anger of the two people at this moment was like two big lanterns, attracting all the ghosts in the whole town. Luo Ziwen had several experiences and knew how difficult these ghosts were to deal with, so he immediately gave a warning when he saw this.
Then he saw Chen Lin lightly pointing a finger at a Jindan-level ghost that was rushing in the front, and then the ghost instantly fell to the ground and disappeared completely in the blink of an eye!
