Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses
Chapter 49 - 48: So scary, I’m almost scared to death!

Chapter 49: Chapter 48: So scary, I’m almost scared to death!

When Yuchi, in the Qi Cultivation Realm, summoned the Immortal Sword again, the sword was already about a meter tall.

It could accelerate to about 100 kilometers in around six seconds, and its top speed could reach 150 kilometers per hour.

Not bad.

In the mountain range.

Yuchi rode the flying sword towards a tall mountain, his talent was poor, but his perception was still high.

The Immortal Sword was as steady as an old dog under his feet, racing through the wild.

Yuchi’s idea was simple. Upon reaching the highest point, he wanted to see if there were any places emitting green smoke around.

If there was green smoke, it meant there were people, and maybe he could pick up a cheap disciple.

However, he didn’t know when things started to change.

It was clearly around noon, and even though there were large trees in the mountains providing shade, it shouldn’t be this dark.

About half an hour had passed.

Yuchi noticed something wasn’t right around him.

The sky gradually darkened, then it poured rain from above.

He cursed the unfair heavens and entered a dense forest.

The trees in the forest had been growing for many years, each over ten zhang tall, that’s more than thirty meters.

The branches formed a dark canopy that blocked the sky, and now the rain was kept out by the leaves, just the sound of rain could be heard overhead.

Occasionally, he felt some large raindrops hit his face, but Yuchi didn’t find it frightening.

He was still pure, would he fear these evil spirits?

If anything did come, he hoped it was a female ghost.

He’s not picky.

Moreover, this wasn’t the sinister Three States, where there was no presence of demons. If he really encountered one, he could neither fight them nor outpace them?

He could just hide, chant "Immortal Stone" ten times, and he could return to the Ascension Gate or go back to the Wei Mansion.

If pushed to the brink, he could simply call for help!

Thinking of Xun Xian’s solid pectorals, Yuchi was filled with even more confidence.

Truly, behind every brave man, there is an even braver woman.

But as the surrounding sound of torrential rain emerged, Yuchi started feeling that things might not be as simple as they seemed.

In the rain-drenched forest, fog had already started to form.

No one knew when the fog began, but now visibility was only about ten zhang.

The ghostly forests on either side were shrouded in mist.

The forest path, originally only five li long, now felt endless!

"Now, this is awkward."

"Could it be that even Yuchi can get lost in the mountains? Wouldn’t that be a joke if it got out?"

He joked with himself.

Yuchi’s speed gradually slowed, and the Immortal Sword drifted slowly in the dense fog.

Then.

Yuchi suddenly saw something appear in the mist.

The figure floated lightly, feet not touching the ground, with a full face of pale hair.

The eyes had no pupils, and there was a ghastly bloody fang at the corners of its mouth.

On the slender fingers, bits of an animal’s carcass could be seen, its facial skin shriveled together.

A grimace, fierce and terrifying!

Then, in the stillness surrounding Yuchi, this entity suddenly leaped into the air.

Yuchi, "Oh ho!"

He looked up.

The entity hung disheveled in the tree branches, its empty, terrifying, greed-filled pupil-less eyes watching him.

"What?"

"Could it be that this world really has ghosts?"

Yuchi believed in demons but not in ghosts.

Demons, after all, were just animals.

But ghosts were different.

Besides, if the opponent could indeed attack him harmlessly, why act so sneaky?

Following the law of smoke without fire, Yuchi actually became interested.

And this entity seemed like a guide, leading Yuchi through the mountains.

A few dozen steps forward, the path suddenly opened up.

A chicken-blood porcelain bowl appeared on the ground of the forest path.

Now, under Yuchi’s nose, he finally saw the face of this entity clearly.

It was a creature covered in deathly gray-white fur.

It crouched on the ground, hunching over, its neck already lengthened.

Yuchi could see the joints of bones protruding from its neck, like a chicken’s neck.

Yet, there was no hair on its neck, rough as a rat’s tail.

Its head had the appearance of a fox-human, with fangs resting on the rim of the porcelain bowl.

As its head shook, the fangs clinked against the bowl, creating a subtle tinkling sound.

A sharp, ghostly, pale tongue licked the blood inside the bowl.

Most of the tongue was stained with blood, and even bits of bone could be seen wedged in its teeth gaps.

As if it could not contain itself, it became aware of Yuchi.

Its head lightly lifted, like a dead duck floating in sludge.

Its body unmoving, the head, like a puppet, floated directly face-to-face with him.

Its long, ugly neck swayed, its bloodshot eyes silently weeping...

It bared its fangs suddenly!

"Wah-hoo!"

An ugly, sharp, and acerbic sneer spread across its face!

Then it lunged at Yuchi, tongue forked, ready to attack.

Yuchi directly took it in!

"?" It was dumbfounded.

Was this...a human?!

"Terrifying, I’m almost scared to death!"

"You must eat people, right?"

"Yes, yes?"

Yuchi spat out some blood.

He was speechless himself.

With a backhand slap, he filled his hand with Spiritual Qi and slapped the opponent flying several zhang away.

Was that it?

Come on.

Let’s hurt each other.

If you truly had the ability, you’d have acted by now, why the hesitation?

In the end, Yuchi realized the other party was suddenly aggrieved!

Yuchi saw it crouch on the ground, puffing its cheeks, looking like a sulky anime girl.

Oh please.

Girls are pretty, what on earth are you?

Yuchi rolled his eyes.

A few steps later, he approached the porcelain bowl, only to find the creature had slinked over to his side.

"Want to continue?" Yuchi looked at its hideous face.

The creature shook its head pitifully, adorably ugly.

"Ha ha, I’m not picky. Scare me again, and I’ll drag you to roll in the sheets!" Yuchi proudly and boldly declared.

The creature’s face filled with fear, retreating more than ten steps, vanishing into the mist, not daring to reappear.

That’s more like it.

Looking at the porcelain bowl on the ground, Yuchi vaguely saw Spiritual Qi flowing around it.

Is this?

...an Array?

Yuchi pondered, roughly certain he had wandered into some sort of place, probably influenced by an Array.

As for how to break the Array?

Finding the Array’s core should suffice?

Specifics, Yuchi didn’t quite grasp.

But he could guess.

He moved the porcelain bowl, and as it left the ground, the surrounding rain stopped immediately.

The phantasm created by Spiritual Qi dissipated completely, and a ray of brilliant sunshine appeared in the sky.

"..."

"So, who has so much free time to bury an Array in such a remote, forested mountain?"

For a moment, Yuchi didn’t understand.

Following the principle that unusual actions must have culprits, he searched around.

After two sticks of incense worth of time searching, Yuchi found freshly turned soil, clearly tampered with by someone.

Beside it, a sign stood.

"There is no treasure here."

Yuchi felt utterly speechless, could such things from stories really happen?

So the other party was really hiding treasure here?

Truly the old saying: "This place has no silver buried three hundred liang."

Yuchi directly began digging with his Immortal Sword.

Immortal Sword, "Yuchi, you must be happy."
