Chapter 1494: Chapter 1488

Seeing the dark and gloomy Earth Well, the Fourth Prince couldn’t help but swallow nervously.

This place, can we really find the Ghost Gate and meet King Hua?

The Fourth Prince was still somewhat skeptical.

"Strange, why has this seal been torn open, has someone broken in!"

The guards exchanged glances, having all heard of Kutuo River’s notorious reputation.

As they approached the Earth Well, a chill wind blew by.

Everyone felt a tremor in their legs.

Kutuo River lives up to its name; even before entering, they all felt a sense of unease.

"It’s said that this place has a rare herb, many mercenary armies have ventured in, everyone brace yourselves, if we succeed today, the Prince will offer heavy rewards."

The Fourth Prince looked at the bottomless Earth Well, feeling a chill run down his spine.

He had hoped his uncle would accompany him earlier.

But his uncle said he wasn’t willing to accompany him.

He mentioned the Fourth Prince must personally seek an audience to demonstrate sincerity.

In fact, King Hua had formed a cooperative relationship with Zhu Qianjun back then, and only Zhu Qianjun went alone.

Too many people would be counterproductive; if King Hua were displeased, everyone would suffer.

The Fourth Prince had no choice but to brave it alone.

Under the promise of a great reward, the guards surrounded the Fourth Prince in the middle, and with him heavily protected, he followed Xin Lin and the others’ lead, sliding into the Earth Well.

Whizz—

Beneath Xin Lin’s foot, an unknown bone crumbled.

Tu Suxuan stumbled as well, and a skull flew out.

"What a sinister place, corpses everywhere. No offense meant, I didn’t intend to."

Tu Suxuan hurriedly picked up the skull, cautiously preparing to set it aside.

"Brother, be careful."

With sharp eyes and quick reflexes, Xin Lin shot a fireball at the skull in Tu Suxuan’s hand.

The skull, which lay motionless earlier, suddenly opened its mouth, spewing a cloud of dark green smoke from its toothless gums.

The smoke caught fire upon contact with the fireball, emitting a "sizzling" noise.

The skull exposed on the ground exploded.

Tu Suxuan was stunned, shocked.

"Brother, don’t touch anything here."

Xin Lin took a deep breath.

The area around Kutuo River is indeed eerie.

Not to mention ghosts or Ah Piao, even the plants and rocks have turned into spirits.

With the castrated ghost leading the way, they avoided some of the most dangerous ghostly spirits, but it was inevitable to encounter a few.

In less than an hour, they had already stepped on some yelling Ghost Grass, encountered fire-breathing stones, and poison smoke spewing skulls.

If it weren’t for Xin Lin’s quick reflexes, they might have died several times over.

However, neither by luck nor because they entered the West Bank area, they hadn’t encountered the icy winds Hu Jie and others experienced earlier.

The path grew narrower, indicating that the West Bank should be nearing its end.

"Third Sister, where exactly does the Spiritual Wisdom Grass grow? I suspect I’ve used up all my courage for this lifetime tonight."

Tu Suxuan frowned with a troubled look.

These ghosts are truly treacherous.

Despite having martial skills, he couldn’t use them, making him feel very frustrated.

Xin Lin glanced at Sealing Spirit Talisman No. 3.

"Approximately fifteen minutes more."

The little fox responded to Xin Lin after inquiring.

Xin Lin nodded.

She had just taken a few steps.

Suddenly, she felt a sense of pain within her, slowly spreading.
