Chapter 976: Chapter 980: My Spiritual Eyes Boyfriend (20)
The term "evil spirit" was something he had heard of by chance when he was a child.
At that time, his pair of Spiritual Eyes had just been accidentally awakened, and he had gone through a terrifying acceptance period.
Later, he met that crazy Daoist, who finally brought him some peace.
It was also from his mouth that he heard this term.
The reason it left such a deep impression was simply because the powerful Daoist, as he knew him then, had a terrified expression on his face when he mentioned this term.
The Daoist had once solemnly told him that most people might never encounter it in their lifetime, but if a spiritualist did come across it, it was both an opportunity and a disaster.
Generally speaking, few who mistakenly enter the realm of evil spirits manage to escape.
As for more information about the evil spirit realm, the Daoist clearly didn’t want to mention it again.
However, Yun Yu learned from him that if the Mortal World belongs to the yang side, then the evil spirit realm belongs to the yin side, like the relative mirror image of the same object.
They are mutually constitutive yet not within the same dimension. To be precise, the evil spirit realm can be attributed to a Different Space.
All the world’s gloomy and filthy aura exists here.
Yun Yu and Gai Yun do not belong to the Life here, like a delicious aroma wafting from a giant cake, spreading through the air.
They are also like a giant glaring spotlight, attracting the attention of the dead spirits and resentful spirits here.
In an instant, Yun Yu and Gai Yun could hear the crackling sound of necks breaking, and all the ghostly entities around them lined up and stared at them.
The eerie gaze was enough to make someone with a weak mental state collapse.
Yun Yu took a sharp breath, chilled to the bone.
And Gai Yun, never having experienced such a terrifying and bizarre scene, immediately covered her chest and screamed out loud.
She felt her heart beating irregularly, and her body showing signs of extreme weakness.
Gai Yun’s scream was like activating some mechanism, and the things around them quickly surged towards them.
This scene was even more frightening than the last time they encountered a resentful spirit.
Last time they encountered only one, but now they faced a terror like the Night Parade of Hundred Demons.
Strangely, Gai Yun, in her fear, showed an eerie bluish-gray face, with the human aura on her quickly fading.
The ghostly entities gathering around, momentarily confused, circled between the two, then directly abandoned Gai Yun and stretched out their withered claws towards Yun Yu.
Yun Yu: .....
But it’s no surprise these instinct-driven ghostly entities judged this way, it’s truly....
Yun Yu, in closest proximity to Gai Yun, turned his head to look aside, unable to feel the living warmth of his girlfriend; the palms interlocked with his were cold as ice.
If not for looking with his eyes, he would have thought that Gai Yun beside him was actually a monster disguised in human skin.
Gai Yun hadn’t the slightest awareness of her strangeness, being almost scared to death, she couldn’t spare the energy to notice anything else.
For now, laying aside these thoughts, Yun Yu was thinking about how to get through this predicament.
The life-saving means he prepared before were all exhausted, now, apart from a spiritual knife in his hand, he only had three consecrated talisman papers left.
Just as something missing half, viewed from above, with a broken skull filled with rotted brain matter was about to touch him, Yun Yu swiftly and extremely quickly plastered a yellow talisman on the opponent’s shattered forehead.
The pattern on the yellow talisman emitted a bright red light, and the thing missing half its skull reacted as if it touched highly corrosive sulfuric acid, suddenly let out a piercing scream, then its skull exploded like firecracker fireworks.
With a "bang", it blew up.
Some green, white, yellow, and black lumpy brain matter splattered out, covering Yun Yu and Gai Yun from head to toe.
Ignoring the stench on his body, Yun Yu pulled Gai Yun, shouting, "Run!"
The rest of the things, startled by the gruesome spectacle, appeared momentarily dumbfounded and paused, allowing Yun Yu to seize the opportunity to break out of the encirclement with Gai Yun.
But the whole space was dreary, and although they shook off the things behind them, they couldn’t find a way out, running around in circles.
The scene looked identical to the living world, running forward along their path felt like they had run far and wide, but the road ahead seemed endlessly endless.
Yun Yu felt despair gripping his heart, his steps were heavy as if weighed down by lead, but he dared not stop, fearing the ghostly entities they’d encountered earlier would catch up.
But suddenly he felt a chill in his heart, realizing something was wrong behind him, turning to see Gai Yun already taking in little, letting out more, her face twisted in agony, unable to call out even if she wanted to, and without the support of Yun Yu’s arm, she’d have fallen long ago.
Yun Yu also knew Gai Yun’s health was not good; if it were, she wouldn’t have lost her memory upon encountering him.
But these days she seemed fine, apart from being weak, everything else was like an ordinary person, who could have thought she’d be so devastated today.
This is just too much, Yun Yu had an unspeakable feeling.
Forced by the situation, Yun Yu could only stop, asking with a hint of complaint, "Are you okay? We should quickly find an exit, if we linger here, I’m afraid we’ll be trapped forever."
The evil spirit realm and Night Parade of Hundred Demons are no jokes.
If entangled by those things.... Yun Yu shivered, not daring to think further.
But some things happen even if you don’t think about them, inversely, good doesn’t work, but bad does.
The sound of little leather shoes clicking echoed in their ears.
Yun Yu’s muscles tensed suddenly, not wanting to look, yet having to.
At this moment, in this place, what else could be causing such a sound?
Yun Yu gripped the spiritual knife tightly, ready to gamble everything.
Unexpectedly, entering his sight was a pale little face, unlike the grotesque faces of those ghostly entities earlier.
The newcomer was dressed in a simple dress, with a pure, clean face, exuding a rich scholarly ambiance.
Without considering the eerie current setting, she looked like a female classmate still in school, a top student type at that.
Don’t ask how he knew, the first impression was a well-behaved student who excelled in studies.
Facing them with a smile, she appeared unthreatening in the slightest.
But Yun Yu inexplicably felt a chill crawling up from the soles of his feet.
Those low-level monsters lacking Spiritual Wisdom were easier to deal with, yet this presence was clearly a formidable one.
"Hello, we meet again, what a coincidence," the girl brightly raised a hand to greet Yun Yu and Gai Yun.
Her familiar tone made it seem as though they were old friends not seen for some time.
Yun Yu grew wary, pressing his lips tightly, thoughts racing about how to escape.
This big ghost was undoubtedly beyond his ability to handle.
