The group had walked down the tunnel for an unknown amount of time. The tunnel was dimly lit, and the chill that permeated caused their bodies to shiver, but nothing threatening had jumped out so far.

Even so, a surge of energy fluctuations could suddenly be felt in the distance, and a strange sound of wailing and whimpering echoed in the empty space.

“Prepare for combat.” Xue Wei’s eyes darkened as he looked at the still dark tunnel in front of them. However, the sounds of despair seemed to increase in intensity, and the fluctuations were growing in magnitude. It was clear that the creatures causing this strange sound had noticed their group.

Hei Gou and Ling Xiao were both quick at preparing, but Luoluo and Bai Tianyi were moving in a stiff manner. Their movements were jerky, and did not seem to work well with their intentions. The chill in the air seemed to have infiltrated their current limbs and caused a strange disconnection from their cores.

Both spirits had clear minds, but they quickly noticed that the closer these wailing creatures came, the harder it was for the both of them to control their bodies.

“This chill feels very familiar.” Luoluo could not control her body fully, but she could still sense the discomfort that was wrapping around her entire being, making her feel as if her core was being suppressed almost to being paralyzed.

Bai Tianyi was severely affected by the chill just like Luoluo, but he did not recognize the strange power that seemed to chain his core and immobilize his body.

Bai Tianyi had been an artificial spirit when their group was at the Garden of Shadows, so although he was considered a spirit, he would not be able to feel the same minute changes in the world as Luoluo could. Also, Luoluo had been imprisoned within the Garden of Shadows for such a long time that to her, this strange aura that permeated through the chill was all too familiar.

.....

“Although we have not found any concrete evidence that proves the chamber we encountered in the Gardens of Shadows to be connected to the spirit devouring formation that kept on draining your energy, I believe that the two have something to do with one another.

“Also, this tunnel is clearly targeting you and Bai Tianyi, and you are the only spirits by our side, just like how the spirit devouring formation also seemed to swallow up all your hard earned energy.”

Xue Wei knew that they could find no proof, but that did not mean that he had to pretend that it was not connected. To him, it was much better than considering everything to be a conspiracy theory and assume the world to be evil, rather than to be a fake saint and think the best of the various possibilities.

“We will deal with these theories later, if we manage to survive. The wailing ghosts have arrived.” Hei Gou did not remember anything from when they were at the Garden of Shadows, but he was still able to keep his mind clear.

The many woven in traces and leads they had encountered throughout their journeys were starting to show as pieces to a puzzle, but they still needed many more to piece it together into one piece. Even so, the mysteries had to wait until a suitable time, as Hei Gou looked at the strange creatures that were rushing towards them while sounding as if they were experiencing the most horrible grievances in the world.

“Are they spirits?” Ling Xiao could not help but frown as he stepped forward. Since Luoluo and Bai Tianyi were both restrained by the current aura in the tunnel, neither of them would be able to participate in the battle, so Ling Xiao, Hei Gou, and Xue Wei formed a triangular protective formation around them, leaving their backs to one another, and got ready to face the onslaught of creatures that were rushing their way.

“They are somewhat like humanoid worms.” Ling Xiao was feeling quite uncomfortable as he looked at the strangely writhing and squirming movements of the group of disgusting white silhouettes in front.

These strange humanoid figures did not have any distinguishable features. All of them were white like snow, but their faces had no facial features; no eyes, nose, nor mouth, simply just a white face that resembled a sheet. There was no hair nor clothes, but their bodies still appeared as if they had been covered with a large white sheet, making them all seem to be pure white mannequins with no feelings, emotions, or personality.

Even so, a heart-gripping and soul-shattering wailing and whimpering kept appearing around this group of white figures that had somehow managed to be entangled into one large ball of despair.

They were unable to walk as an ordinary human would, but instead had different ways to advance. Some were rolling around, while others were crawling or writhing. The appearance resembled a nest of earthworms and Xue Wei felt complicated emotions.

“They are vengeful and grievous emotions that have been left behind after their bodies and souls are torn apart. They have nothing to sustain themselves, apart from the emotions that they cannot vent, and they have banded together like this to become a genuine danger to others.”

Although Luoluo’s body was suppressed, she still had a great amount of knowledge, and her mind was still clear.

Looking at the wailing creatures in front, she had recognized their origin, but her heart could not help but drop in discomfort. How gruesome did the death of these people have to be for so many grievances to gather together?
