Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws - Chapter 1625
1625 Searching The Restricted Area, Heading To The Soul Restricted Area, The City Lord’s Mansion Is Haunted
“Alright. I’ll have to find out where the Soul Restricted Area is next.”
After dealing with the Life Core’s Flower, Chu Kuangren planned to deal with Shi Ying’s matter next.
He must obtain the Soul Concentration Flower in the Soul Restricted Area, but the Restricted Area was extremely mysterious. Although it was located in the Immortal World, no one knew where it was, including the Violet Eye clan, which was once its subsidiary force.
The only way for Chu Kuangren to find that force was through the Book of Earth, which was transformed from the fetal membrane of the Immortal World’s earth.
!!
Since it had a connection with the Immortal World’s earth, besides knowing what happened on the land, it could deduce the changes in the mountains and rivers in the universe.
Chu Kuangren took out the Book of Earth which was dark yellow in color, and it looked like any other book.
As he mobilized his Immortal Consciousness and entered the book, he came to a splendid realm in which he saw vicissitudes of life and countless events that took place on that ancient land.
Among the events was the history of the humans’ development, which involved Nuwa’s creation of humans, the three sovereigns and five emperors, the fall of the Human Emperor, the Great Deification War…
“The Soul Restricted Area!”
Chu Kuangren mobilized his thoughts while silently mentioning the Soul Restricted Area.
Shortly after, information about the Restricted Area appeared one after another. Among the countless changing scenes of mountains and rivers, a place shrouded in thick gray fog emerged before him.
“Is this the Soul Restricted Area?” Chu Kuangren mumbled.
After his consciousness left the Book of Earth, he knew where to find the Restricted Area.
“Heh, I’ve found it.”
Chu Kuangren smiled.
He planned to go to the Restricted Area alone, so he left soon after.
…
The Soul Restricted Area was located in an ancient mountain range within the Immortal World.
The mountain range was extremely unique and was surrounded by countless restrictions, making it difficult for some of the Immortal World’s great ones to spy on it.
Furthermore, the mountain range was movable and would change its position every once in a while, which made it even more difficult to be found.
However, it was not a difficult task for Chu Kuangren, who owned the Book of Earth.
Soon, he found the ancient mountain range that was invisible to ordinary cultivators. At that moment, the mountain range was located near a fort.
Cultivators in the fort did not even know that next to the place where they lived, there was a Restricted Area that countless cultivators feared!
Even the Arch Gilded Immortal with the highest cultivation level in the fort did not notice its existence!
“Since I’m here, I shall settle down first,” mumbled Chu Kuangren.
He did not intrude into the Soul Restricted Area immediately as it would not be a wise act.
At the very least, he must first have a basic understanding of the area.
The best way was to obtain some information from someone that originated from the Restricted Area.
Since the fort was located near the Restricted Area, he might come across that particular someone if he was lucky.
While in the fort, Chu Kuangren covered his face and aura with a spiritual veil as he did not want to reveal his identity. Then, he found a random inn.
Even though he deliberately hid his identity, he could not conceal his extraordinary aura and Daoist Rhyme completely. A faint trace of it was enough to shock many.
Inside the inn, many people were discussing while looking at Chu Kuangren, who was sitting by the window.
“Who is that person? What an extraordinary aura.”
“Indeed. Does such a cultivator exist in the Heavenly Cloud City?”
“I have no idea.”
Chu Kuangren ignored the crowd’s comments.
The crowd then talked about other matters after discussing him for a while.
“Have you heard about the City Lord’s mansion being haunted recently?”
“What?! The City Lord’s mansion is haunted? It must be a joke. Our City Lord is an Arch Gilded Immortal. Would a ghoul dare to make trouble in his mansion?”
“Yeah. That’s courting death.”
“I guess you guys have no idea about this.”
A young man said mysteriously, “I heard that the evil ghouls that went to make trouble in the City Lord’s mansion are no ordinary ones. There are even Arch Gilded existences among them!”
Everyone gasped upon hearing that.
An Arch Gilded Immortal was extremely rare, let alone an Arch Gilded Realm ghoul.
“No way. Why would an Arch Gilded Realm ghoul look for trouble at the City Lord’s mansion?”
“Who knows?”
“Sigh. Speaking of that, the City Lord’s family is considered unlucky. Their daughter whom they raised hard has become a cripple, and now they are being harassed by ghouls. How sad.”
“Indeed. The City Lord’s daughter was initially qualified to participate in the Battle of the Heavenly Champions. Unfortunately, she lost all her cultivation overnight due to an unknown reason.”
Chu Kuangren was surprised when he heard their conversation.
Evil ghouls?
Chu Kuangren thought of the Soul Restricted Area as their techniques were treacherous and they could raise evil ghouls.
In order to confirm his conjecture, he mobilized his Immortal Consciousness to collect some information.
Soon after, he managed to locate the City Lord’s mansion, but it was now surrounded by a large number of restrictions, making it difficult for his Immortal Consciousness to enter.
Nevertheless, Chu Kuangren was not bothered by it, and he continued to collect information from other people.
All kinds of information flooded his mind through his Immortal Consciousness.
In the city, many cultivators could sense that someone was spying on the Heavenly Cloud City with his or her Immortal Consciousness, but no one dared to speak out to stop it.
The Immortal Consciousness energy was too vast, while their Immortal Consciousness was smaller in scale and was nothing in comparison.
It was definitely a great one!
In the entire Heavenly Cloud City, no one could compare to it except for the City Lord.
Who would dare to speak out to stop such a powerful great one?!
If that person wanted to destroy the entire city, they could not possibly stop the person. Furthermore, he was merely collecting some information, which was considered an extremely gentle act.
“I see…”
Soon, Chu Kuangren had a general idea about the haunting going on in the City Lord’s mansion.
The incident happened about a month ago.
According to the information obtained from the Book of Earth, the Soul Restricted Area also moved itself to the vicinity of the Heavenly Cloud City a month ago.
Was that a coincidence?
Chu Kuangren did not think it was.
Moreover, even if it was a coincidence, it would be unreasonable for Chu Kuangren, the Underworld Ghost Emperor, to turn a blind eye to the evil ghouls that harmed the world.
He needed to intervene in the matter of the City Lord’s mansion.
That night, the moon was shining brightly.
In the City Lord’s mansion, a woman was sleeping on a couch.
She had a slender figure, and her facial features were delicate. However, her face was pale, which made her look extremely weak, especially when she furrowed her brows.
She seemed to be experiencing a sad nightmare.
Suddenly, a freezing intent approached.
The woman awakened abruptly, and her eyes widened with a look of helplessness and horror. “He’s here. He’s here again.”
In the City Lord’s mansion, a surge of eerie and treacherous Yin qi erupted and filled most of the mansion.
“Hehe. Luo Tianyun, I’m here again. Hand over the Nine-colored Celestial Soul Physique or I’ll mess up your mansion!”
A grim voice sounded.
Shortly after, gusts of wind blew, and billowing dark clouds appeared in the sky above the City Lord’s mansion. A middle-aged ghoul dressed in a black robe and filled with gloomy freezing intent descended slowly!
Behind him, countless ghouls were howling and roaring. It was a horrifying scene!
