Everyone did as they were told, leaving the three Mistletoe Demons behind while the rest of the group continued to move forward.
Strange things happen.
Not much time had passed, and Li Mu was surprised to find that those things were approaching towards the Gnarl Devil.
The two sides quickly closed the distance as if they were in a standoff and nothing happened.
However, those things still avoided them and didn't dare show themselves in the neighborhood.
After speaking out what she had sensed, Lin Wan made an immediate decision.
"You and Star Moon stay behind, and Xiao Yu and I will keep going!"
Li Mu immediately expressed his refusal, not yet knowing whether the other party was a friend or foe, such an arrangement was a bit impulsive and too risky.
Pulling away was easy, rescuing in time wasn't, and he couldn't afford to take that kind of risk if anything happened.
No negotiation, no consent, under his tough attitude, Lin Wan could only give up.
Shen Xingyue on the side was silent, only dropping her gaze on Li Mu's body, looking at it carefully and repeatedly.
Li Mu was furious at her look and couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking at me for?"
"Moo, I think there's something wrong with you?"
"Nonsense, I am what I am, what's wrong with that?"
"It's not that, I mean there's something wrong with your state."
Problems with the status?
Li Mu took a look at his own body, didn't feel anything wrong with his state, wasn't he still the same person, why wasn't he right?
He Xiaoyu laughed, "Sister Xingyue, do you mean Fury?"
Shen Xingyue clapped her hands and said, "Yes, it's the Fury Qi, that's what I'm talking about, Brother Mu, since you came here, you've never collected the Fury Qi, I think, that's the problem!"
Li Mu said in puzzlement, "In a weird environment, I will unconsciously protect my body with my fury, it's not the first day you know about this trait, what's wrong with it?"
"Brother Sillywood, the thing they're afraid of is probably your fury, if you collect your fury, they might not dare to come over."
Li Mu came to a realization, slapped his thigh vigorously, and said cheerfully, "It's still Xing Yue who's smart, why didn't I think of that."
Lin Wan pouted, "Alright, let's talk about it afterward if it sounds good, you'll just internalize the fury now and see if they'll react?"
Li Mu hurriedly did as he was told, completely restraining the fury around him, and from the perspective of his aura, it was exactly the same as an ordinary person, with nothing outstanding about it.
Those things in the distance reacted quickly.
After the aura that made them feel fear disappeared, they first felt confused, then skeptical, and finally tentative, getting a little bit closer to their goal.
The distance between the two sides was gradually closing, Li Mu had already tightened his grip on his plate-faced sword, his expression becoming more and more serious.
Lin Wan said softly, "Relax, let's show kindness together and not scare them!"
"Pull your ass up, bullshit goodwill, there's a fight going on over there!"
Lin Wan and the others were taken aback.
Fighting. Who's fighting who?
Lin Niangniang hurriedly asked, "Is it a Yan demon?"
"Yes, there's a fight going on at the Hedgehog's place, it's very lively, and White is on his way there."
Lin Wan laughed bitterly, "It seems that the other party is an enemy, not a friend, and is only concerned about our strength, which is why they haven't made things difficult for us."
"Yeah, and I know what the hell they are, surprisingly they're all ghosts, grandma, this is the world of ghosts."
There was no need for him to say it, Nymphet Lin and the others had seen those things as well.
Just as Li Mu had said, it was a swarm of ghostly creatures, too numerous to count, pressing towards them in an overwhelming manner.
He Xiaoyu said in surprise, "Here, is this a ghost domain?"
Shen Xingyue snorted coldly and said with certainty, "Definitely not, have you noticed that the clothing they are wearing is the same as the Forgotten Star Realm.
If I'm right, this is the graveyard of the Forgotten Star Realm, and Muyun borrowed an evil method to detain the souls of the dead here, forcing them to become his ghost soldiers."
Li Mu nodded and said, "The Forgotten Star Realm is limited in size and land resources are scarce, there aren't many places to bury the dead, and for Mu Yun to bring the dead here for burial is a double win."
He Xiaoyu was puzzled, "Didn't that Shogun say that people from the Forgotten Star Realm can't leave that heaven and earth for the rest of their lives, so how did Mu Yun bring them out?"
Li Mu laughed, "He said lifelong, but he didn't say dead, the living can't leave that heaven and earth, what's wrong with the dead."
Seeing the ghostly creatures approaching closer and closer, Lin Wan exclaimed, "They're about to rush up, and you're still chatting idly, your hearts are so big."
Little Brother Li wrapped his left hand around her waist and said contemptuously, "A group of evil spirits is just a group of evil spirits, what's there to be afraid of, let's see my husband easily retreat from the enemy!"
Said, fiercely drew out the plate face knife, raised the knife to the sky, the fury suddenly came out, the four fields of ferocious momentum.
The forward rushing ghosts braked hastily, not even needing to be told to turn around and run.
They came fast and ran even faster, and in the blink of an eye, receded like a tidal wave.
Li Mu laughed out loud, his eyes filled with disdain.
There were still some ghosts on the scene that hadn't run away, they had just behaved most aggressively and were closest to Li Mu.
At this moment, his hands and feet were softened by the impact of the baneful aura, and if he wanted to run, he could no longer stand up.
Guess it's the old saying, don't go forward with everything, silly!
You're not smart enough to be a human being, but you're not smart enough to be a ghost!
Reimu made two false chops with his plate-faced blade.
The fury was more plentiful.
Those ghostly creatures were so scared that they didn't dare to move, their whole body trembling with nothing but shivering.
Li Mu commanded them, "All of you get over here, I have something to ask you, move fast!"
The ghosts didn't dare to slow down, some rolled, some crawled, and obediently gathered in front of Li Mu's eyes.
Little Brother Li roughly counted that there could be almost several hundred ghostly creatures.
"Are there any of you who can talk?"
The ghostly creatures said nothing to anyone.
"It seems there are no talking ones, so you're no use, I'll break your spirits now."
"Daddy, I can talk!"
"Grandpa, I can talk too!"
"Ancestor, I'll say anything!"
"Shut up, no yelling, and call me ancestor together!"
"Ancestor, we will speak!"
"If you can talk, let me ask you, what is this place?"
"Ancestor, this is the Astral Tomb Realm, one yin and one yang with the Forgotten Star Realm, the merging is reincarnation and the separation is two realms."
The crowd of ghostly creatures started confessing, and Li Mu and the others finally realized what was going on.
It turned out that the Astral Tomb Realm and the Forgotten Star Realm were a pair of yin and yang realms, one dominating yin and the other dominating yang.
When a person dies in the yang world, his soul enters the yin world, and when a new life is born in the yang world, his soul enters the yang world again to be born, and so on and so forth, forming a cycle of reincarnation.
And that Mu Yun, naturally, is the realm lord of the two realms!
Li Mu couldn't help but mutter a little when he heard about this rarity for the first time.
Lin Wan asked in a small voice, "What are you talking about?"
"I was wondering, where is the netherworld of Earth?"
"Maybe yes, maybe no!"
"What do you mean?"
"The earth is large enough, well-organized, with heaven and earth divided, and yin and yang merged into one, so that there may be no materialized netherworld."
"No. Then where does Hades go to sleep?"
"Who has seen Hades?"
"That said, what you see, doesn't come back!"
"That's why I said the word possible, maybe Earth has a netherworld, we just don't know it."
He Xiaoyu urged in a low voice, "Senior brother, Sister Wan, ask about business!"
Yes, far from it. Let's get down to business.
Li Mu cleared his throat and asked the ghostly creatures, "Where is Mu Yun?"
"Ancestor, Lord Boundary Master ran away, he ordered us to block you and then left."
"Where did he go?"
"This, we don't know, the upper peak didn't say, we really don't know."
"With him gone, who's in charge here now?"
"It's in the charge of Lord Ghost King, he's fishing by the lake, if the ancestor has anything to do, you can ask him, we don't know anything, we just know that we are under orders."
Yikes, these fuckers are pretty fucking righteous, giving up their boss so quickly.
Li Mu laughed and laughed, suddenly feeling that these ghostly creatures were not that annoying.
"I ask you, what lake is that?"
"Back to my ancestor, it's the Yin Underworld Lake, located about a hundred miles to the west, Lord Ghost King fishes there every day, it's easy to find him."
"Lake Underworld, is the water drinkable?"
All the ghosts were silent, this ancestor seemed to be thirsty, he actually wanted to drink the water of the Netherworld Lake, how should this be answered.
Saying that we cannot drink, shall he do good in case he casts the evil fire of thirst upon us.
Said he could drink. If something really happened to him, he'd be after us.
How can I answer to block both ends?
The ghostly creatures were silent, their eyes dribbling.
Little Brother Li was really thirsty, they had been cut off from water for many days and were in desperate need of hydration, and when they heard that there was a lake, they naturally had to ask more questions.
Seeing that the ghosts didn't say anything, he knew that there was definitely something wrong.
So, threateningly, he said to them, "If you dare to deceive your ancestors, I will now break you up so that you can never be reincarnated again."
There was another burst of ghostly cries, and the ghostly creatures didn't dare to play games and told the truth.
It turns out that this lake is not the other lake, and it is very different from the lake in the Yang world.
Though there is a shore and water, it is seen and not felt.
As for whether it's drinkable or not, is that even a question?
Can't even touch it. What are you drinking? The atmosphere?
Li Mu couldn't help but feel a bit deflated, then, he asked curiously, "Since you can't touch it, why does your ghost king fish there every day, and what is he fishing for?"
"Ancestor, Lord Ghost King said that he fishes for chances, saying that it's a matter of willingness."
I see, it turns out that fishing is all about mood, and frankly, it's all about pretending.
Li Mu didn't care about this matter, and then, asked the last question.
"Where is the exit singularity of this realm?"
The ghostly creatures replied in unison, "Only Lord Ghost King knows, none of us are sure."
Okay, that's pretty much it. Know who to go to.
Li Mu waved his hand and let the ghosts go.
After they drifted away, Shen Xingyue laughed, "Brother Mu has changed his nature and is actually showing mercy to ghosts, this is not like your character."
Li Mu replied in a serious voice, "Wrong, this is my true character."
"How?"
"They have already died once, to kill them again is to have their souls scattered, and it's better to do less sinful things if you can!"
"Hubby is right!" Lin Wan concurred, "Unless it's an evil spirit, then it's better not to break its reincarnation, and it's better to do less of the great sins!"
Miss Shen's face suddenly reddened a bit, and she didn't dare to look at them again, but twisted her head to the side.
