s immediately placed the fragrant flower umbrella beside the viewing pavilion, opening its canopy and allowing the light gauze curtains to drape down, covering the pavilion.This… what are we doing… I...She is the red-cloaked female ghost, a significant figure in the Si clan before. She and I have been "acquainted" for quite some time.

At this moment, she was in a hurry, but instead of swiftly flitting away, she walked forward with a small demon carrying a green skull lantern.

This little demon looked exactly the same as the one I had just seen. They both walked on their snake tails and moved rather slowly. The red-cloaked female ghost seemed somewhat anxious.

"I just saw a white light flash and fly towards the archway, why don't you believe me" she said urgently.

But that snake-tailed monster could only move forward by S-shaped tail movement, and had to maintain its balance. It still seemed somewhat doubtful.

My child and I stood at the street corner, watching them walk past us.

“The location of the Great Archway ~~is no small matter~~. That's where our Lord Sinking Dragon resides! Who would be foolish enough to provoke Lord Sinking Dragon Those who are blind and reckless enough to approach him will fall into a maze... There was one trapped there before, don't you remember Hehehehehe...” the little monster said triumphantly.

The little boy nudged me with his elbow secretly.

I was still stuck on one before.

We have all heard the key points.

There's a 90% chance that the star god Ji Du is trapped.

When they walked away, the little boy whispered, "Although both Ji Dou Xingjun and Luo Hou Xingjun are Ecliptic Gods, Ji Dou Xingjun's resistance to this extreme yin energy is far inferior to Luo Hou Xingjun's. That's why he hates going to the underworld. He is the Ecliptic God of the Moon, easily calculated and controlled by the power of Yin... Tai Yi Zun Shen turns a blind eye and allows Luo Hou Xingjun to come and take him, precisely because of this consideration."

"I wonder if the Star Jun of Na Ji will...have some unforeseen event" I asked with some worry.

Before, we speculated that he was trapped.

While an ordinary person trapped would likely face a grim fate, he was a celestial being. He could survive on wind and dew, untouched by worldly flames, or he could focus his mind to protect himself.

"Little princess, don't be afraid. I think it's this ghost town that's unlucky." The child thought I was scared and quickly tried to comfort me.

"I'm not afraid at all. Mu Wanchen has almost torn down the city walls, and as long as we can cooperate inside, maybe we can even rescue Jie Xingjun."

"Speaking of which... I feel like Mu Wanchen is a little off." the young boy mumbled.

"What's wrong"

In our Scattered Immortal's view, someone who can see the future, even just for a brief moment or a fragment, is possessed of the cultivation and wisdom befitting an Upper Immortal.

"What's wrong with Guan Ruizhi"

“As for the little princess, you wouldn't understand. You think that becoming an immortal requires only hardship and opportunity No, no, it also requires a broad mind and intelligence, the ability to perceive subtle details and anticipate changes, like listening to the wind to predict the weather. This seemingly mystical understanding is actually a perception of the natural world’s changes and laws...the comprehension of the principles of yin and yang.”

The little boy couldn't contain his excitement and whispered to me, "Although Mu Wanchen has only been here for a short time, he's not surprised by the celestial phenomena. But what's truly astonishing is that he was able to predict when the miasma would reappear—because there's no regularity to its appearance!"

In the world, perhaps many people have never seen mirages with their own eyes throughout their lives, and they have been explained by various sayings...But one thing is that people from ancient times to the present have never truly discovered where the images in the mirage come from.

“Ancient books describe a sea with Yaotai Immortal Mountain, palaces of jade and splendor. In ancient times, how many places had palaces Emperors secretly sent people to observe the sea, but every record was vague about the source of these images, leading them to believe in the existence of the sea fairy mountain...In fact, most of those images were caused by mirages... It is estimated that even the so-called cloud-dwelling Immortal Mountains on this vast expanse are surrounded by mirages.”

"You just said there was a mirage dragon. Is there a real dragon in this ghost city" I pressed.

"Um, actually I've never seen what a mirage dragon looks like. Such a rare divine beast is probably kept by the Ten Witches of Ling Mountain... After all, they are the incarnations of primordial gods... Many ancient divine beasts are familiar with them."

"Come on, let's go and see what happens."

I was anxious. If such a powerful artifact were guarding this place, would there be a fierce battle

Under the enormous gate stood a wide main road, which was the central avenue of the city.

We crept along the shadowy edges, brushing past countless bewildered ghosts, and huddled on the eastern side of the grand archway.

"...This archway is probably a shackle... Holding down the sea serpents below."

"Is the mirage a spirit too Does it transform into a physical form"

"Of course! He's been refined into a guiling, existing alongside this city. Naturally, he can change shape at will... Look at the mirages spewing from those wells. They're all connected! This gas should be able to—"

"Transforming into a dragon," I muttered to myself.

The fog in the city had grown so thick that it was impossible to see three zhang away. Fortunately, the heavy fog also served as a good hiding place for us.

"Fortunately, I pulled off the nine-tailed fox's tail, otherwise how could we have resisted this miasma of ghostly energy..."

"You pulled that down" The little boy couldn't help but sneer with disdain: "Do you have that much strength to pull down the giant tail of a nine-tailed fox Pulling out a tuft of hair is considered your great strength..."

"Then..."

"This must have been your family's great shaman doing this! Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that you fell down and had fur to protect you He was probably afraid you'd inhale too much miasma and endanger your skin and life... so he cut off one of the nine-tailed fox's tails... Well, that must be it."

……lol.

This leaves me speechless.

"Hee hee hee, look... Lord Shenlong is quite spirited, isn't he ~~ Who dares to provoke Lord Shenlong, right Hee—"

Before he could finish his smile, the sound abruptly stopped.

We were stunned as a blood-red ghost in the thick fog suddenly let out a terrifying shriek and transformed into a ghostly figure rushing towards us!

"Hide!" I reacted instantly, grabbing the little boy by the back of his head. We both burrowed under a blanket of fur, crawling low to the ground and avoiding that face-to-face chill wind.

The little cub was knocked flat by me. He held back and didn't dare make a sound, but our protective fur was already ruffled.

The bone-chilling cold sent shivers down my spine. In the thick fog, a massive figure slowly took shape. Was this the Mirage Dragon

Something seemed to be emerging from its mouth... a chill flash descended from the sky.

In the darkness, that single light was incredibly dazzling. The moment it touched the ground, we saw the Night Watch demon, Xiao Yao, split in two beneath the archway.

As the light faded, Luohu Xingjun held Jiedu Xingjun in one hand, who seemed somewhat weak. With the other hand, he held his sword and looked at us with a frown: "What are you doing Do you need to prostrate yourselves like this"

"Who knelt down to you! I was just pushed to the ground by the little princess!" The child glared at me indignantly.

"What's going on with you guys" I was confused. How did they just fall from the air

Lord Luohu glared at us fiercely: "Hmph, do you still have time to talk Aren't you afraid of being swallowed Hurry up and leave!"tisfy the needs of so many people for food, clothing, shelter, marriage, funerals, medical care, education, housing, and finding a partner It's better to be scattered..."Long Xiaoge chuckled self-depr...
