Catching Ghosts as Head of Yin Department

Chapter 682 680: Farewell, Snake Immortal

Mo Lin glanced around, and now there was only one place he could escape to.

The tunnel entrance in Xu Fu's shadowy chest, that was the only place Mo Lin could escape to.

Mo Lin didn't have any technique like "Star Shifting", nor the ability to shrink the ground into inches; he couldn't escape.

Only this tunnel entrance provided a place to hide.

Mo Lin steeled himself and rushed into the tunnel entrance.

Mo Lin sighed inwardly.

He originally didn't plan to enter, but ended up inside anyway.

Shang Xun prepared to enter the tunnel to chase Mo Lin, but as soon as her body touched the tunnel entrance.

A massive repulsive force surged, as if she was pushed away.

Shang Xun was directly thrown back dozens of meters.

She helplessly watched Mo Lin's disappearing figure and coldly said, "I won't let you escape."

Shang Xun's goal was very clear, to kill Mo Lin.

As long as she killed Mo Lin, the vendetta between her and her sister would be completely settled.

It also served as an explanation to her sister.

.....

A blinding light engulfed Mo Lin, like a flashbang, rendering him unable to see anything.

In that instant, Mo Lin's mind conjured up numerous scenarios.

This ought to be a particularly unique place filled with danger.

If circumstances weren't favorable, Mo Lin would flee immediately.

As the light gradually faded, Mo Lin could finally see the surroundings.

Mountains of white bones piled everywhere.

A damp, dark environment.

The ground felt soft, as if stepping on muddy soil after rain.

An overwhelming stench assaulted his senses.

Upon seeing the environment, Mo Lin was dumbstruck.

Wasn't this the Ten Thousand Immortals Country?

The first place Mo Lin came to, and also where he learned his first Immortal Technique.

He had even received special attention from the Star Constellation Snake Immortal here.

This place was all too familiar to Mo Lin.

Not searching for immortality?

Why had he come to such a place?

This place Mo Lin knew well; just following the road ahead, he would reach the Three Immortals Cave.

Mo Lin surveyed his surroundings but did not see Hong Cang and others, nor did he know where the group had gone.

Mo Lin followed the path forward, and after about ten minutes, he suddenly stopped.

The scene ahead left Mo Lin stunned.

Corpses scattered everywhere.

These were not people who had died long ago.

These were clearly people who had recently died.

The air permeated with the scent of blood.

In the distance stood a towering tree, requiring ten people to embrace its trunk.

This tree had no leaves on its branches.

Like candied fruits, each branch hung with dead bodies.

Mo Lin swept his gaze across, seeing Three-system Immortal Cultivators among them.

Clearly, a life-and-death battle had occurred here.

Mo Lin was unclear about the specifics.

In the distance... a bright red figure began to emerge.

Behind that person, black smoke billowed, their eyes bright red, as if with severe conjunctivitis.

Even more severe than conjunctivitis.

Their clothing seeped with fresh blood.

As if soaked in blood, who knew how many had died by his hands to achieve this.

The red-eyed man held a head in his right hand.

Upon closer inspection, it too appeared to be an immortal cultivator's head.

Mo Lin's mind could only think of one phrase.

"What's going on?"

Mo Lin's mind was truly a blank slate.

Having fled here from Shang Xun.

Feeling like he had stumbled upon something extraordinary again.

"Immortal cultivator strife, divine protection,"

Zhang Qu coldly spat out.

Not giving Mo Lin a chance to speak, Zhang Qu raised his right hand, bright red Immortal Qi gathered in his palm, frightening pressure exploded behind him.

Immortal Qi descended, enveloping Mo Lin.

Without any warning, he directly moved to kill.

Mo Lin reacted swiftly, raising his hand and swinging his sword, Cyan Cloud Sword slashed out, successfully deflecting the Immortal Qi rushing towards him.

"I don't want to be your enemy," Mo Lin explained to Zhang Qu.

"Ha ha..."

Zhang Qu showed a disdainful expression, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?

If you're not here as an enemy, why are you here?

"I accidentally stumbled in here," Mo Lin explained to Zhang Qu.

Clearly, Zhang Qu didn't believe Mo Lin's explanation, he slowly said to Mo Lin.

"This is the Ten Thousand Immortals Country.

Today is no ordinary day.

Today is the day of the Ten Thousand Immortals Ceremony hosted by the Three Immortals.

As long as you survive here, you'll possess the power acknowledged by the Three Immortals, and gain True God's protection."

Mo Lin's head buzzed.

He didn't know exactly where things went wrong.

But clearly, he seemed to have become part of something extraordinary.

"Were there others before me?"

Mo Lin asked perplexed, "Great Spirit Mountain's Evil Spirits?

And Xin Ziruo's fourth disciple, Mo Fengxiao, didn't you see them?"

"Are you crazy?"

Zhang Qu insultingly told Mo Lin, "This is the Ten Thousand Immortals Ceremony, only Three-system Immortal Cultivators can participate.

The people you're mentioning aren't even Immortal Cultivators, they don't qualify to be here."

"Did I come to the wrong place?"

No matter how foolish Mo Lin was, he realized by now that he and Mo Fengxiao might have ended up in different places.

Mo Lin mistakenly came to participate in the Ten Thousand Immortals Ceremony.

"The wrong place?

Three hundred and sixty-five days in a year, and you happen to stumble into the wrong place on the day of the Ten Thousand Immortals Ceremony?

For the Ten Thousand Immortals Ceremony, the Ten Thousand Immortals Country hasn't allowed Immortal Cultivators in for half a month, you're saying you entered half a month early and took a wrong turn?"

Zhang Qu pointed at Mo Lin's face and humiliated him, "Even if you fear death, you don't need such a pathetic excuse!"

Mo Lin's excuse was really too far-fetched.

Zhang Qu pointed at the corpses of those who had died and continued.

"Although these people were weak, they bravely died.

Someone who chooses to attend the Ten Thousand Immortals Ceremony yet cowardly finds excuses, you're the first I've encountered.

How did you, someone who fears death, become an Immortal Cultivator?"

In both tone and attitude, Zhang Qu showed a look of disdain for Mo Lin.

Mo Lin could only sigh; this matter was beyond explanation.

"As an Immortal Cultivator, fight me bravely," Zhang Qu pointed at Mo Lin and scolded him.

Here in the Ten Thousand Immortals Country, Immortal Techniques were the most powerful.

Mo Lin's Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship and Five Viscera Concealing Ghost Skill were hard to employ here, suppressed by the world around.

This Ten Thousand Immortals Ceremony was focusing on Immortal Techniques.

But Mo Lin truly wasn't here to participate in the Ten Thousand Immortals Ceremony.

He could only say he accidentally ended up here.

From the environment, the intensity of battles could be seen.

"Not going to strike?" Zhang Qu saw Mo Lin hesitating, and didn't wait anymore; he struck again.

Terrorizing Immortal Qi gathered, forming a bright red longsword in mid-air, slashing towards Mo Lin.

It wasn't that Mo Lin didn't strike, but his Immortal Technique was sealed.

Without breaking the forbidden technique, Mo Lin was unable to utilize Immortal Techniques.

Moreover, Mo Lin himself didn't know how to break the restriction.

That was quite troublesome, wasn't it?

No matter how talented Mo Lin was, facing Zhang Qu he would suffer losses.

Here, unable to use Immortal Techniques, felt akin to losing limbs.

Mo Lin braced himself, performing the Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship, barely able to fend off Zhang Qu's attack.

Failure was only a matter of time.

Furthermore, Zhang Qu was exceptionally strong, even among Magic Control Level Immortal Cultivators, Zhang Qu was a leading presence.

Zhang Qu completely lost patience and raised his hand again.

Bright red Immortal Qi gathered into a black giant serpent, tightly ensnaring Mo Lin.

Zhang Qu prepared to end Mo Lin's life in one move.

Just then, a rebuking voice was heard.

"Stop.."

With the voice, Zhang Qu's surrounding bright red Immortal Qi directly scattered.

Zhang Qu's body was even pushed back hundreds of meters.

White Immortal Qi appeared, and a stunningly beautiful woman gradually appeared in the air.

The moment this woman appeared, the oppressive feeling in the Immortal Cave instantly emerged.

This woman, barefoot, had vertical pupils, her flawless white face emerged before them.

One of the three Snake Immortals, the Star Constellation Snake Immortal.
