The darkness of the night was like an invisible black hole that mercilessly swallowed all life.
In the woods, Chen Yu was fleeing for his life. Behind him was a ferocious female ghost in white with long, fluttering hair. The female ghost kept chasing after him. It had already been four hours since Chen Yu killed the mandrill.
Originally, he thought that he had only encountered the mandrill because he was lucky. However, it wasn't until later that Chen Yu realized that he had been overthinking things.
Because in this forest, they would encounter a ghost every thousand meters.
In this forest, the number of ghosts and monsters was simply staggering. After encountering the mandrill, Chen Yu successively encountered the white-clothed female ghost, weasel spirit, locust tree spirit, fox spirit, bat spirit, old vine spirit, and other ghosts and monsters.
Among them, the mandrill, weasel spirit, bat spirit, fox spirit, and old vine spirit were all eliminated by Chen Yu.
Apart from the mandrill, weasel, and bat spirit, which were afraid of fire due to their low cultivation, the old vine spirit was afraid of fire. Even though it caught Chen Yu off guard at the beginning and trapped him firmly, Chen Yu eventually set fire to it with the Flame Talisman.
Among them, Chen Yu's situation was the most dangerous when dealing with the vixen. Although the vixen's attack power wasn't strong, she knew illusions and seduction techniques. He was almost mesmerized by that vixen.
Moreover, because that fox spirit's cultivation was too low and she hadn't transformed, if not for Chen Yu practicing his fist techniques and having a firm will, allowing him to quickly escape the fox spirit's control of illusion and seduction techniques, Chen Yu found it very difficult to imagine what he would do that was intolerable by the heavens and was so ashamed that he wanted to die.
Among them, the white-clothed female ghost and the locust tree spirit had the highest cultivation. However, because the locust tree spirit was a tree-type demon, it was unable to move. After it attacked Chen Yu once, Chen Yu cleverly dodged it and distanced himself from it. After that, the locust tree spirit had no way of dealing with Chen Yu.
As for the white-clothed female ghost that had been chasing after him, it was only because Chen Yu had accidentally stepped on her grave. This white-clothed female ghost chased after Chen Yu as if he had killed her entire family.
According to Chen Yu's estimation, the white-clothed female ghost was very likely an old ghost who had lived for a very long time. With his meager cultivation, he was simply not a match for the white-clothed female ghost. Fortunately, she was more afraid of the talisman in Chen Yu's hand. Therefore, she did not pursue too closely, allowing Chen Yu to escape so far.
However, even so, Chen Yu didn't have many talismans left in his hands. He only had the last Purple Thunder Talisman that he kept for life-saving purposes. After killing so many demons just now, there weren't many talismans left on his body.
"Whoosh!"
Right at this moment, the white-clothed female ghost, who was following Chen Yu a dozen meters away, extended her arm in the wind and reached a length of over ten meters. She crossed the distance of over ten meters between her and Chen Yu and grabbed at him.
Chen Yu had no strength to resist at all. The female ghost's fingernails, which were five to six inches long, tore through his clothes and left five long bloody marks on his back.
"Don't force me. Didn't I accidentally step on your grave? A rabbit will bite when it's anxious!"
Enduring the pain on his back, Chen Yu continued to flee. Sensing that the female ghost behind him was still relentlessly chasing after him, Chen Yu turned his head and said,"
The reason why he didn't use the Purple Thunder Talisman earlier was that he had already used up all his magic power during the escape. Now, he was running while silently recovering his magic power. Of course, running to recover wouldn't be as fast as sitting down to recover.
Secondly, it wasn't the time when their lives were at stake yet.
"Hmph, you only stepped on it? That's trampling, okay?"
Upon hearing Chen Yu's words, the female ghost chasing after Chen Yu said angrily. Half of her face was rotten, but from the other half of her delicate face, it could be seen that she had been a beautiful woman when she was alive.
"It's just a tomb. At most, I'll reconstruct it for you, okay?”
Hearing this female ghost's words, Chen Yu paused.
"You can remodel it just because you say so? There are many burial items left behind by my parents. They were all destroyed because you stepped on the curtain.”
This white-clothed female ghost's long hair danced in the wind. She still had an angry expression as she flew in the air and continued to pursue Chen Yu.
Chen Yu's cultivation was originally much lower than the white-clothed female ghost's, and he was about to be caught up by the white-clothed female ghost.
Just as Chen Yu felt that he was being chased to the point where he had nowhere to go, and that the magic power recovered in his body could already barely use the last Purple Thunder Talisman, he was about to perish together with the white-clothed female ghost.
"Qingqing! Hurry up, at this speed, when will we be able to get home?”
Right at this moment, Chen Yu heard a man's voice coming from a short distance away.
"Master, are you kidding me? It's the middle of the night!”
At this moment, a clear female voice sounded.
Hearing this woman's voice, Chen Yu knew that this was absolutely not an illusion.
"There's hope!"
Chen Yu immediately said happily.
Then, without any hesitation, he immediately threw out the last Purple Lightning Talisman from his pocket. He chanted an incantation and used the Yu Steps. The Purple Lightning Talisman turned into a purple lightning bolt as thick as a baby's arm and struck at the female ghost in white.
"Ah!"
Seeing the purple lightning, the female ghost in white let out a terrified howl and turned to retreat. Unfortunately, it was already too late.
" Boom!" The white-robed female ghost was struck, but the effect was not satisfactory. Although the white-robed female ghost's figure faded a little, she was not seriously injured.
From that ferocious gaze, it could be seen that this Purple Thunder Talisman had instead angered her. However, she didn't know if Chen Yu still had Purple Thunder Talismans in his hands, so she didn't dare to rashly attack.
After casting a Purple Thunder Talisman on the female ghost in white, Chen Yu immediately turned around and ran in the direction where the sound came from...
"Master, did you hear that? There seems to be some movement over there?"
In the forest several hundred meters away from Chen Yu, a thin old monk dressed in coarse cloth and a lively girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, who wore gray cotton clothes and had two braids, were hurrying through the forest.
At this time, the explosion from Chen Yu's Purple Thunder Talisman reached the ears of the thin old monk and the young girl.
"Do I need you to say that? What a dense ghostly aura! " There should be a fellow cultivator fighting with the ghost. Not good, that fellow cultivator is running for his life. He's not a match for him. Let's go and save him."”
The monk beside him closed his eyes and then opened them.
After that, he immediately rushed toward Chen Yu's direction. Although this monk was in his fifties and had a thin and weak body, he was very agile. He was as agile as a monkey as he jumped up and down in the forest and rushed toward Chen Yu at an extremely fast speed.
The girl also followed!
Over 100 meters away, Chen Yu felt as if his legs were filled with lead. No matter how hard he tried, every step he took felt as if he had used all his strength.
Chen Yu knew that he had overdrawn his physical strength.
After coming to this world for four hours, he was either running or fighting. He had used up the last bit of magic power in his body when he used the Purple Thunder Talisman just now. At this moment, his stamina was finally running out.
If he could not find the person who had spoken not far away before he exhausted his physical strength, he was afraid that he would die in the hands of this female ghost behind him today.
However, right at this moment, Chen Yu, who had his head buried in his escape, saw a blur before his eyes. A bald, thin old monk suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Master, save me!"
Upon seeing that it was a monk and not an ordinary person, Chen Yu's heart leaped with joy as he shouted at the monk.
Since the other party was a monk, there was a high possibility that he had magic power. That way, he could be saved.
Soon after, he seemed to have found someone to rely on. Chen Yu, who had previously supported himself with a strong will and was extremely exhausted and injured, fainted magnificently and collapsed in front of the other party.
"Young man, are you alright?"
Seeing that Chen Yu had actually arrived just as he arrived, the monk immediately ran up to Chen Yu. Fortunately, Chen Yu's aura was still there, proving that he wasn't dead. He was only unconscious.
"Monk! Don't be a busybody!"
At this time, the female ghost in white who was chasing after Chen Yu had already flown in front of him.
"I see that your nature is not bad. Leave quickly.”
The monk frowned when he saw that the female ghost in white didn't have the red murderous aura that she had after killing someone.
"Give him to me and I'll leave.”
The female ghost in white shook her head.
"Stubborn."
The old monk's eyes flashed. He took one of the Buddhist beads from the string on his chest and threw it at the female ghost in white.
A golden swastika appeared in the air around the finger-sized Buddhist prayer bead and hit the white-robed female ghost.
"Ah!"
The female ghost in white screamed again.
"Just you wait, this isn't over!”
Although she was powerful, this old monk seemed to be even more powerful than her. Since she was injured, the female ghost in white did not want to fight head-on. She left behind a vicious sentence and instantly disappeared.
"Wouldn't it be better if we left earlier?"
Seeing the female ghost in white leave, the old monk shook his head and said.
