338 Phoenix Forbidden Ghost Lane (2)

The cold wind was violent and the candle flames swayed intensely. It carried an indescribable coldness that permeated the air.

The ground instantly froze and the surrounding vegetation was covered in frost. The flames of the three candles also changed color to green.

There were also murmurs in the air.

It was impossible to hear what they were saying. It was as though countless people were whispering. These voices entered Xu Qing’s mind, causing his mind to shake. In the distance, fog rose.

The fog came very suddenly, as though it had appeared out of thin air. Its range grew larger and larger until it filled a certain area and covered the trees in the jungle.

After that, a city appeared in the fog.

The walls of this city were gray and all the buildings inside were gray. From the style, it exuded an ancient feeling, as though an ancient city buried in history had reappeared in the human world.

The city… was extremely lively.

Countless figures could be seen floating inside. There were a lot of them and they all looked different.

Some had no heads, some had beast bodies, some had tall bodies, some had slender bodies, and some had such big mouths that their hands were holding their jaws. There were also some whose bodies were surrounded with evil thoughts.

Not only were there wandering ghosts, but there were also countless stores.

The shopkeepers were also bizarre ent.i.ties and looked sinister.

If mortals saw this, they would definitely be frightened out of their souls.

This was a ghost city from head to toe.

There might be living people inside but they all hid their auras, causing their entire bodies to be filled with dense anomalous substances. Only then would they not be discovered.

This was also one of the rules for entering the Ghost Lane.

Although the Ghost Lane was willing to trade with the human race, the rule was… that the anomalous substances on their bodies were dense and they were about to mutate.

In addition, this ghost city that was filled with countless bizarre ent.i.ties was clearly filled with countless ghosts but it was quiet. It was as though all the existences inside couldn’t speak.

The most obvious thing was a huge head floating in the center of this city.

This head floated in the air. It looked like it belonged to a middle-aged human but it had no hair.

It was like the head of a monk.

Its eyes were shut and it remained motionless in the air. There were chains around it that suppressed and sealed it.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that those chains were formed by skinless arms entangled together.

At the four city gates of this Ghost City, there were tall and burly men wearing nothing on their upper bodies and had heads of babies. They carried a 50-foot-long black ghost saber on their shoulders.

Looking at all of this, Xu Qing’s gaze was reserved and there were some waves in his mind.

He had never seen the Phoenix Forbidden Ghost City before but this scene was exactly like the information he had checked. After he saw it with his own eyes, he recalled that he had once seen a ghost city at the bottom of the Forbidden Sea.

“In that case, is that place also a Ghost Lane?” Xu Qing didn’t enter immediately. Instead, he observed carefully. Gradually, the candles around him swayed increasingly intensely under the cold wind.

Xu Qing wasn’t anxious. He continued to observe all the details until he was sure that there was nothing wrong. When the candles in the surroundings were about to be extinguished and the Ghost City in the distance was about to blur and dissipate again, he sucked toward the shadow.

Immediately, the anomalous substances in his body rose sharply. In the blink of an eye, the anomalous substances in him looked so dense that he could mutate at any time and his skin turned black.

Finally, fog formed by dense anomalous substances lingered around his body. Only then did Xu Qing walk toward the Ghost City in front of him step by step.

Every step he took brought him about 30 feet away. After a few breaths, Xu Qing had already stepped onto the fog and walked to the gate of the Ghost City.

The moment he arrived, the gazes of the burly men on both sides landed on Xu Qing.

Xu Qing didn’t stop in his tracks, allowing the gazes of the two ghosts to land on him as he walked into the city.

As he walked in, the gazes behind him dissipated. At this moment, the fog in the surroundings instantly rose greatly, covering the surroundings, causing Xu Qing to see nothing but fog in the distance.

It was as though this place had been isolated from the outside world with the arrival of a trader. The moon in the sky had turned green and emitted a dark light that scattered on the city.

These were in line with the information Xu Qing had investigated.

He gradually walked into the long street and joined the countless bizarre ent.i.ties, walking with the ghosts.

However, at that moment, the nose of the huge monk head in the center of the city suddenly moved, as though it was sniffing at something. Its eyelids seemed to be about to open, but as the dark light on the chains flickered, it fell quiet again.

Xu Qing looked at it and his eyes narrowed slightly.

There were countless ghosts on the long street.

Xu Qing’s gaze moved away from the monk’s head. He then looked around.

He saw a ghost whose entire body was like paper. As it walked, it even took a brush and drew eye lines on its face.

There was also a ghost which was completely soaked. The water droplets dripping from it formed six-eyed ghost insects that followed him.

There were also imps who looked like three-year-olds with red eyes, long ears, and black bodies that were slightly red. They were playing and running on the ground.

There was also a furless cat lying on a building not far away, holding a b.l.o.o.d.y head in its claws and licking it.

The black gas that permeated its body showed that it was also a type of ghost.

As for headless ghosts, beast-shaped ghosts, skeletons, or multi-faced foggy ghosts, they were everywhere.
