Immortality from Taming Elephant

Chapter 138: Horizontal Pressure Over the World Unmatched with Me


Although the Ghostly Land does not experience changes in heavenly phenomena, the environment is not completely static.

The collision between Ghostly Lands can produce all sorts of wondrous sights.

Xu Guang watched as an inn emerged from a dry well. A Fierce Ghost, dressed as a waiter holding a tray, smiled at the two of them. The smile of the dead was extremely creepy, sending chills down one's spine.

"Dear guest, you've lost your heart. May I ask if it's a golden heart, a silver heart, or a copper heart?"

A rule-based Alien Ghost?

This is considered one of the easier types of Fierce Ghosts to deal with. When a Fierce Ghost asks you a question, it pre-determines the answer. As long as you respond with the pre-determined answer, such a Fierce Ghost will not bother you further.

But Xu Guang had no need for such reservations. He extended his hand forward, releasing an endless burst of Qi Force.

General Wei let out a low roar. The Fierce Ghost remained motionless, its body illuminated by a treasure light, revealing mottled and decayed marks, yet it seemed unfazed and continued asking.

"Dear guest, your heart..."

Xu Guang's methods also arrived. Accompanied by the Qi Force surging forth with infinite Power of the Stars, he instantly subdued and killed the Fierce Ghost in front of him.

However, as soon as its Ghost Heart fell to the ground, it continued to move slowly, as if growing legs, crawling towards the inn not far away.

Splat!

General Teng's vines wrapped around that Ghost Heart and... instantly pulled it back!

From within the eerie black inn, a piercing female voice suddenly emerged and then quickly retreated.

This is also a characteristic of rule-based ghosts; their true form is often something unimaginable to humans. This inn is the true form of the Fierce Ghost.

The waiter was merely a split incarnation of the Fierce Ghost that is the inn.

On this trip to the Mass Grave, with Jiang Zi Yun introducing him, Xu Guang had truly encountered all sorts of ghosts.

He was left in awe.

But he couldn't help but reflect that if one hadn't practiced martial arts, or wasn't a strong Martial Artist, facing Fierce Ghosts would truly be a hopeless situation.

Little Mink transformed into a purple line and landed in Jiang Zi Yun's arms from afar, saying something in a soft whimpering voice.

Xu Guang curled his lips, thinking that this sound... really made him want to punch it.

"Little Mink says Xiaoyu'Er's presence is getting closer, and soon we'll be able to meet her."

Jiang Zi Yun's tone contained worry. Shen Muyu had achieved the Innate level later than she did, and her true strength might not even match hers.

However, due to her special identity, whether it be her father or her Sect Leader Uncle from Jiufeng Mountain, they would surely provide her with enough life-preserving treasures.

Just as the two were about to continue forward.

A strange voice suddenly echoed from the void.

"Mou Zhen and Meng Hao of the Dianyin Sect invite all masters in the Ten Thousand People Pit Ghostly Land to jointly open the Celestial Pool Tomb!"

Xu Guang immediately looked up, frowning towards his surroundings. With his Feng Shui expertise, he obviously realized that this was a method utilized through Feng Shui Master techniques.

To accomplish this, the other party must have walked through these areas. Could it be that Mou Zhen and Meng Hao have traversed such a vast area during these times?

Hard to imagine.

"What is the Celestial Pool Tomb?"

Xu Guang inquired without understanding.

Jiang Zi Yun furrowed her brows as if trying to remember, and sure enough, after just a moment, she provided the answer.

"It seems to be a very ancient legend about an elder from long ago, the Celestial Pool Elder, whose tomb contains extraordinary opportunities allowing one to foster their own physique and comprehend seeds of Divine Techniques. In other words, if one gains fortune within the Celestial Pool, there's hope for reaching the Fourth Grade.

However, what I didn't expect was that the Celestial Pool Tomb of the Celestial Pool Elder turns out not to be in Kunlun, but within this Ten Thousand People Pit Ghostly Land."

Xu Guang narrowed his eyes, finally understanding why the Seal Sect suggested going to the Ten Thousand People Pit Ghostly Land this time.

"It seems we don't need to look for Xiaoyu'Er anymore."

Jiang Zi Yun nodded. With Shen Muyu's character, she would definitely not miss such a great opportunity.

The two of them didn't waste time on unnecessary actions to obtain Ghost Hearts. Xu Guang used his Divine Thought to sweep over the scene, and anything they encountered was casually handled by the Elephant Vine Generals, with the Ghost Hearts given to Jiang Zi Yun while the spiritual materials went to Xu Guang.

After roughly three days of travel, Xu Guang and Jiang Zi Yun arrived at the foot of a cliff.

This was naturally not an ordinary cliff; numerous ghostly hands sprouted from the cliff face, constantly grasping at the void, and facial contours emerged on the surface, their features seemingly etched upon it, as if struggling to break free from the cliff.

In the height of spookiness, there was an inexplicable sense of humor.

"Is this the place those two talked about? But it seems we haven't found the Celestial Pool Tomb yet."

Jiang Zi Yun expressed some doubt.

As the two spoke, the top of the cliff suddenly exploded, and an immense cloud of black erupted into the air like a mushroom cloud.

It soared into the sky, as if an extremely terrifying aura had abruptly appeared at the mountaintop, disturbing all the Yin Qi overhead.

The black clouds churned, and in an instant, the world was devoid of light, shrouded in endless darkness, as if a curtain of death had suddenly been drawn over the world.

Amidst the rolling black-and-red clouds, at the summit before them, a massive ancient castle protruded from the ground, with waves of blood cascading almost visibly to the naked eye, sweeping through the world.

The world became silent, with not a single sound to be heard. The usually rampaging Fierce Ghosts seemed to have all fallen into hibernation in that instant.

The ancient castle was filled with an aura of the passage of time, like a story of the sea turning into land, crossing from ancient times, akin to a death vortex swallowing up the world's dark clouds.

The entire mountain peak was unveiled with the appearance of the ancient castle.

This was a...

A terrifying mountain made entirely of grim white bones!
