Chapter 363: Authentic certification, absolute strength is beyond doubt
Ye Bai shrugged: "I didn't say I wanted to take him into the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum. I just wanted to get rid of his body."
After saying that, he took out three red candles, lit them and threw them into the fire. The fire immediately grew stronger and stronger and soon burned the coffin to ashes.
The flames rose, making Ye Bai's face look somewhat enchanting.
"Okay, you guys take a rest first, and we'll set off early tomorrow morning."
Leaving these words behind, he turned and left, his back gradually moving away.
……
The next day.
Ye Bai and Yang Mi embarked on a journey deep into the Kunlun Mountains.
Because they encountered an evil spirit last night, the two of them became much more vigilant.
"Brother Ye, do you feel that we have been going around in circles?" Yang Mi suddenly stopped and said with a frown.
Ye Bai heard this and took a closer look, and found it indeed a bit strange.
Logically, they should be crossing a mountain at this moment.
However, apart from a lush forest in front of them, there was no mountain road or cliff at all.
"I see!"
Ye Bai's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly: "There's a Feng Shui arrangement here, a bewildering array!"
"A maze?" Yang Mi frowned.
She had never heard of the term.
Ye Bai said, "This is one of the oldest Feng Shui formations, a technique used to trap and kill enemies. It utilizes the five elements of heaven and earth to create a maze-like field, trapping intruders until they die."
"Then what should we do?" Yang Mi asked anxiously.
Ye Bai smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I'm here, I promise everything will be fine."
"Yeah!" Yang Mi nodded heavily, a strong sense of security surged in her heart, and she inexplicably trusted him.
Meng Ziyi also followed them closely.
Ye Bai stood there, looking around, seemingly casually examining the forest shrouded in a maze.
He took out a Luoyang shovel from his backpack, poked the ground gently a few times, then grabbed a handful of soil and put it to his nose and sniffed it.
"This maze is not simple. It seems to have been integrated with other evil techniques. Someone must have done it on purpose."
Ye Bai said in a low voice, his voice was cold, but there was a reassuring power in it.
Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi huddled together nervously, and the live camera clearly transmitted this scene to the audience. The comments scrolled frantically:
"Oh my god, it really is tomb robbing! This is so exciting!"
"Mimi and Ziyi, be careful. It feels so dangerous."
"This Ye Bai is so handsome, he must have a way."
"Isn't this illegal? Will I get caught?"
"The person above may not know this, but our Boss Ye is officially certified. Even the archaeological team has to respect him!"
Ye Bai ignored the audience's reactions. He squatted down, took out a few ancient coins from his bag, and placed them on the ground in specific positions.
He was muttering something, an ancient and mysterious spell that seemed to carry the power of thousands of years.
As he uttered the last syllable, a faint light appeared around the ancient coin.
“This is…” Meng Ziyi covered her mouth in surprise.
"This is the first step to breaking the formation, finding clues to the center of the formation. These ancient coins can resonate with the surrounding aura and guide us in the direction." Ye Bai explained.
Yang Mi took the live broadcast equipment and showed the ancient coins and light to the audience, and the barrage of comments exploded again:
"Is this a special effect? It's so fake."
"It feels so magical. It would be terrifying if it were true."
"Mimi, be careful, don't be fooled."
Ye Bai walked in the direction of the flashing light of the ancient coin, and Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi followed closely behind.
Not far away, they came to a huge ancient tree.
The trunk of this tree is so thick that it takes several people to hug it. There are strange lines on the bark, like twisted human faces, exuding a strange aura.
"It's here. The center of the formation should be under this tree." Ye Bai said.
"Ah? This tree looks so scary." Yang Mi said in a trembling voice.
Meng Ziyi was also a little scared. She held Yang Mi's hand and unconsciously moved closer to Ye Bai.
Ye Bai took out a special dagger from his backpack and began digging under the tree.
After digging for a while, he suddenly stopped and frowned.
"What's wrong?" Yang Mi asked.
"There is something guarding the center of the formation. It is an evil spirit in folk legends - the soul-eating ghost. It is said that it feeds on human souls and specializes in guarding this evil formation." Ye Bai's words made the atmosphere even more tense.
The audience also felt that fear on the screen:
"Oh my god, a soul-eating ghost? That's ridiculous."
"I've heard of this legend. It's said that once you're targeted by it, you're doomed."
"Hurry up, host, and stop doing this."
At this moment, a sinister laugh echoed in the woods, making people's hair stand on end.
Suddenly, several black claws emerged from the tree trunk and grabbed Ye Bai and the others. Ye Bai reacted quickly, waving his dagger to block the claws and shouting, "Back off!"
Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi quickly stepped back. Yang Mi did not forget to hold the live broadcast equipment. The camera was a little shaking, but the audience could still clearly see the horrifying scene.
"Fuck, those claws are so long!"
"Nima, is this true?"
"Is this a soul-eating ghost?"
"I don't believe it! It must be fiction!"
Ye Bai narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp. Holding a dagger in his hand, he rushed forward and stabbed it fiercely into the soul-eating ghost's head.
The soul-eating ghost screamed and instantly shrank back into the tree trunk.
Ye Bai pulled out the dagger, and blood gushed out, staining the ground red.
"This is... a living thing!" Meng Ziyi exclaimed.
She just wanted to persuade Ye Bai to escape quickly, but who would have thought that she would actually encounter a soul-eating ghost.
Ye Bai's face showed a solemn expression. The soul-eating ghost was very powerful, even more powerful than ordinary ghost officials.
He held the dagger and approached the tree trunk carefully.
The tree is not very thick, only about five or six meters.
Ye Bai slowly bent down and stretched out a hand into the tree hole.
It's icy cold to the touch, chilling to the bone marrow.
"Such a cold and gloomy aura..." Ye Bai frowned.
He looked up and found a huge sapphire inlaid on the top of the tree hole.
The gem was emitting a faint green light, making the dark tree hole look even more eerie and gloomy.
"Ye Bai, how is it? Have you found the center of the formation?" Meng Ziyi asked anxiously.
Yang Mi clenched her fists tightly, her pretty face tense and full of worry.
"There's something wrong with this gem. We have to leave here." Ye Bai shook his head, retracted his hand and said.
"What do you mean?"
"I suspect there is a body hidden at the bottom of this tree." Ye Bai said seriously.
"Ah? Why is there a corpse? Is this a trap set by the Feng Shui master?" Yang Mi asked blankly.
Ye Bai shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either. Anyway, we can't stay here now. I think the Soul-Eating Ghost will catch up with us soon."
