Could it be that Xiao Xiao has already woken up?
Chen Nan was a bit impatient, and hurriedly rushed over, clasping his fists and saying, "Senior, how is my wife?"
"She is no longer in serious danger."
The woman in red spoke calmly, glanced at Chen Nan and said, "However, I found that her physique is sowhat special. I plan to take her as my disciple and teach her the cultivation thod. You will not be allowed to see her for the ti being."
Her physique is sowhat special?
Chen Nan frowned, recalling the scene that night when Li Xiao attempted suicide.
She was clearly immobilized by Guo Qiye and the others, but at the last mont, she wasn’t affected by the acupoint strike and threw herself onto Long Zhigang’s sword. The matter was indeed sowhat strange.
"So when can I see her?" Chen Nan asked.
The woman in red shook her head and said, "When I feel the ti is right. It may be soon, or it may take a long ti."
"Please, Goddess, give a definite answer!" Chen Nan’s tone beca sowhat heavy. Although he was grateful to the woman in red for saving Li Xiao, he could not tolerate being kept from seeing her.
The woman in red didn’t get angry either and said indifferently, "When the ti cos for you to et, I will naturally let you. Right now, she has just started on the path of cultivation, and if you see her now, it will disturb her cultivation."
"But..."
"There’s no ’but’." The woman in red glanced at him and said, "If you can find Ghost Grass in the Western Ghost Realm, I have a way to rapidly enhance her power so you can see each other sooner."
Ghost Grass can only grow in places extrely heavy with negative energy.
Chen Nan asked, "Isn’t Ghost Grass ford from ghostly energy? How can it help her improve her cultivation?"
"I have my own thods. You don’t need to ask more."
After saying this, the woman in red flickered and disappeared into the distance.
Chen Nan looked in the direction of her departure, stayed silent for a while, then turned around and continued flying westward.
Racing like the wind, Chen Nan traversed the space at life and death reincarnation speed, faster and more terrifying than an Earth Master, flying continuously westward while taking the Primordial Qi Pill he had stolen from the Corpse-controlling Sect to replenish his inner strength. Three hours later, he left the Huaxia border.
On the first leg of the journey, Chen Nan almost didn’t stop.
The next morning, Huaxia ti was past six o’clock, and he arrived on the European Continent.
At this ti, if it were in Huaxia, it would already be morning and the sun would be rising, but on the Western Continent, it was still night and it would be several hours before daybreak.
However, for soone with Chen Nan’s cultivation, whether day or night, it made little difference.
According to the map given by Xuan Tianji, around ten in the morning Huaxia ti, Chen Nan arrived near the Aluo Mountain Range.
According to the map, the Western Ghost Realm was within this Aluo Mountain Range.
Stopping at the outskirts of the mountains, Chen Nan sat down to practice his inner strength, nourishing his energy. The ghost realm was extrely heavy with negative energy. Now was not the best ti to enter. He would wait until daybreak when the sun shone here and the stubborn ghosts’ power greatly diminished, then it would be the best ti to enter.
Entering at night was tens of tis more dangerous than during the day.
Around twelve noon Huaxia ti, Chen Nan stood up, glanced at the rising sun in the east, and flew rapidly into the Aluo Mountain Range.
The outskirts of the Aluo Mountain Range were no different from ordinary mountains, but as Chen Nan continued deeper, a chilling sinister aura pervaded the air, the cold feeling intensifying despite the sun being overhead, making one feel an unparalleled coldness.
Over a hundred miles into the Aluo Mountain Range, Chen Nan felt the negative energy intensify, prompting him to slow his flying speed and heighten his vigilance.
"Whew..."
The sound of the wind howling, a gust of sinister wind hit head-on.
Chen Nan felt a chill on his back; the icy aura was bone-chilling, giving the impression of arriving in hell.
He looked up at the sun in the sky but felt no warmth at all, as if the sun was a re shadow, with no warmth whatsoever.
"Caw..."
Suddenly, a strange cry ca from the front.
Chen Nan instantly tensed up, slowing his speed even further as he flew forward.
"Whoosh..."
The sound of sothing cutting through the air ca, a gust of strength attacking from behind.
Chen Nan didn’t hesitate for a mont, reacting almost instinctively, punching backward.
"Bang..."
Inner strength surged, blasting a raven into pieces, flesh flying everywhere.
A false alarm!
Chen Nan continued moving forward.
However, the further he went, the more he felt sothing was off.
Because, besides the raven he just blasted, he encountered more than ten more, and these ravens all had one common action — attacking him.
It’s not surprising to have ravens in places heavy with negative energy.
After all, ravens have long been disliked by people, as they are considered harbingers of misfortune, and their presence represents bringing bad luck, and even their diet is disgusting as they prefer to peck at the rotting corpses of humans or animals.
So having ravens in such places didn’t surprise Chen Nan, but what puzzled him was why these ravens would attack him?
Ravens may like to eat rotting corpses, but in normal circumstances, they aren’t aggressive towards the living.
These are probably not ordinary ravens!
Chen Nan thought, and as he continued forward, the number of ravens kept increasing, and they were getting larger in size.
After slaying two ravens as big as grown roosters, Chen Nan finally sensed sothing unusual; these ravens had an extrely strong death energy within them, or perhaps, their consciousness was already dead, leaving only their flesh bodies alive.
"What on earth caused this flock of ravens with immortal flesh bodies?"
Chen Nan was puzzled.
As the number of attacking ravens increased, Chen Nan stopped killing them one by one and instead used the Life and Death Reincarnation Taiji Diagram to shield his entire body and charged forward rapidly. Where he passed, the power of space ripped the ravens apart, feathers and flesh flying in all directions, creating a scene of devastation.
Another ten miles or so forward, Chen Nan felt so pressure.
The ravens in this area were nearly as tall as benches, and when they flapped their wings, the sinister wind in the forest surged, sweeping up countless broken branches and fallen leaves.
"Go to hell!"
Chen Nan took two more Primordial Qi Pills and charged forward again.
Although the bench-high ravens looked terrifying, they couldn’t resist the lethal Yin Yang Dual World attack from Chen Nan.
Any raven that pounced toward Chen Nan was torn to pieces by the space power, without exception.
After advancing a few hundred ters more, Chen Nan noticed flashes of white light ahead. Thinking it was so treasure, he rushed forward only to find human remains.
