"My benefactor, are you planning to seize the Yin God position?"
Jiang Yun immediately guessed that Mo Lin must have some thoughts about the Yin God position.
If Mo Lin had no interest, he certainly wouldn't be asking.
"You can't go there, too many have died."
"Recently, someone from the Netherworld King Hall went there and died." Jiang Yun reminded Mo Lin again.
"It's fine, just tell me where it is." Mo Lin said to Jiang Yun once more.
"Head all the way east." Jiang Yun pointed to the east and said to Mo Lin.
"Alright, I got it."
Just as Mo Lin finished speaking, he saw clouds of darkness gather in the distance.
This wasn't real clouds, it was Ghost Qi, formed by too many ghosts gathered together.
Not only Mo Lin noticed this scene; everyone present saw it too.
"Captain Jiang Yun, what do we do?" A man asked Jiang Yun.
This auxiliary path is currently guarded by Jiang Yun.
Including Jiang Yun, there are more than twenty people here.
One person from the Netherworld King Hall is present, the rest are people Jiang Yun brought from the Great Spirit Mountain.
"Let's go, we can't hold this place." Li Tao looked at the dense Ghost Qi in the distance and reminded.
He belongs to the Netherworld King Hall and often deals with ghosts here; he's able to judge the strength of these ghosts in a glance.
"Why should we go?" Jiang Yun retorted.
"Are we supposed to stay and die here? We are not a match for that group of ghosts." Li Tao snorted.
"We haven't even fought yet; how do you know we're not a match?" Jiang Yun countered defiantly.
"There is a Cave Master Level ghost among them; what will you use to block it?" Li Tao scolded Jiang Yun again.
The overall strength of Jiang Yun's group was weaker, with Li Tao being relatively stronger.
"Can't you block a Cave Master Level ghost?" Jiang Yun asked Li Tao.
"I can block a Cave Master Level ghost, but can you all destroy the rest of the ghosts?"
Li Tao's tone carried a hint of disdain, "Am I supposed to throw away my bright future to fight desperately here with you?"
Simply put, he felt the danger and was unwilling to engage in a life-or-death battle with those ghosts.
While they were speaking, the ghosts in front had already surged forward.
Countless ghosts, roughly over a hundred of them.
Leading them were two Cave Master Level ghosts.
The rest of the ghosts were Disaster Level and Deadly Level.
Jiang Yun took a deep breath; she could easily handle Deadly Level ghosts.
But dealing with Cave Master Level ghosts would be quite challenging.
"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and leave!" Li Tao scolded.
Jiang Yun was unwilling; Xin had assigned her to guard this place. If she left, the ghosts would follow the auxiliary path, converging into the Daoist Master path.
It would pressure those guarding the main path.
"There's no need to leave."
Mo Lin stepped forward to speak.
Upon seeing Mo Lin, Li Tao's eyes instantly filled with distaste.
"Not leaving? You want to die here?"
Li Tao ridiculed Mo Lin, "Do you think you're like me? I can deal with these ghosts, can you?"
Mo Lin sneered, "Since you can deal with these ghosts, why leave?"
"I..." Li Tao paused for a moment, then said, "I'm worried you all will die here."
In truth, these words were mere excuses.
He was actually afraid of dying here himself.
Just finding excuses for his cowardice.
"If you want to leave, then leave on your own." Mo Lin told Li Tao again.
"So clueless." Li Tao stopped persuading Mo Lin and turned to retreat, standing aside.
He didn't leave directly.
He just wanted to see Mo Lin's group fail to block the ghosts in embarrassment.
At that point, Mo Lin's group would certainly cry for help... but Li Tao had no plans to help them.
He simply wanted Mo Lin to pay the price for his arrogance.
Li Tao crossed his arms and watched.
Jiang Yun took out a yellow paper with her right hand and commanded, "Prepare to fight."
Following Jiang Yun's command, the disciples of Great Spirit Mountain began to ready themselves for a life-and-death struggle with the ghosts ahead.
Jiang Yun was just about to issue the command to fight when Mo Lin interrupted her.
"You don't need to act."
"Huh..." Jiang Yun suspected she heard wrong, incredulously looked at Mo Lin, and asked again.
"My benefactor, what did you just say?"
"You don't need to act, I'll handle it."
Just two Cave Master Level ghosts; Mo Lin could still manage them.
"Are you sure?" Jiang Yun lowered her voice, doubting whether Mo Lin could eliminate this group of ghosts.
After all, the number of ghosts before them was quite large, at least over a hundred.
This number of ghosts would intimidate even the skilled disciples from Great Spirit Mountain; they wouldn't dare boast like Mo Lin.
"It's fine." Mo Lin repeated.
Since Mo Lin said so, Jiang Yun didn't try to stop him.
Li Tao heard Mo Lin's arrogant words, and the mocking expression on his face became apparent.
Handling all these ghosts alone? That's too arrogant.
Isn't he overestimating himself?
Does he truly think he's one of those Netherworld King Hall heirs?
"Ridiculous! Seeking death!"
Mo Lin paid no attention to Li Tao; he just wanted to finish the battle quickly and find the person practicing the Five Viscera Concealing Immortal Technique.
Mo Lin stepped forward, blocking the ghosts' path.
Before Mo Lin could act, the ghosts rushing forward suddenly seemed to see something terrifying and began retreating.
Then, in a frenzy, they started fleeing.
Just moments ago, the area was dense with Ghost Qi; within a few breaths of time,
the ghosts in front vanished completely.
Their reaction speed caught even Mo Lin off guard.
Who would've thought those advancing ghosts would suddenly retreat?
Jiang Yun was also surprised, having never seen such a situation.
"My benefactor, are these ghosts afraid of you? Is that why they ran?" Jiang Yun speculated.
Before Mo Lin could respond, Li Tao interjected.
"Nonsense! These ghosts must have been summoned away; they didn't fear Mo Lin at all."
Li Tao couldn't believe the ghosts fled out of fear of Mo Lin.
He had never encountered such a situation.
Ghosts afraid of a human?
Absurd!
"I don't know." Mo Lin didn't boast; he truly didn't understand what happened.
Even more unsure why the ghosts ran at the sight of him.
"You just got lucky; if those ghosts hadn't left, they would've killed you for sure."
Perhaps due to the conflict between Mo Lin and Li Tao just moments ago.
Li Tao's words were full of sarcasm, with a hint of hostility.
Mo Lin chose not to retort out of disdain.
Li Tao's words and actions were just too inept.
They felt abnormal.
Who in their right mind would do something to draw such enmity?
Isn't he just asking for trouble?
Li Tao seemed rather brainless.
With a few words, he managed to offend everyone except Mo Lin.
Anyone with sense would never act like this.
"Weren't you taking me to Xin? Where is she?" Mo Lin was eager to meet the one practicing the Five Viscera Concealing Immortal Technique.
