In the next moment, everyone could not help but feel a chill run down their spines. Although none of them had experienced this ghostly night before, in the past, there had been cases of ghosts knocking on the door in the tribe. However, it was the first time that a ghost knew the names of everyone in the tribe so clearly, and even spoke so eloquently. What was even more strange was that the sound could even affect one's state of mind, causing one to unknowingly fall into a trap. Such a strange scene was indeed terrifying.
If not for the words of the child in the stone house, Uncle Lu would have believed it. Once the stone door was opened, what would happen if they were surrounded by these malicious ghosts? He dared not imagine what would happen. If that happened, he would be the sinner of the entire tribe. A layer of cold sweat broke out from between his brows.
In the oil lamp on the stone table, the flame flickered incessantly, making a sizzling sound. The stone house fell into silence once again. Everyone was tense. The woman hugged the child tightly and leaned against her husband. Indeed, she could not stop her body from trembling. Following that, the knocking on the door became more urgent.
"Uncle Lu, save me!
Save me!
I'm Baby Tiger, I'm your nephew, save me! "
The voice became more and more miserable and fearful, even mixed with a hint of sobbing. Accompanied by the sound of biting and swallowing, the hearts of everyone in the stone house trembled uncontrollably. They could imagine the bloody scene of flesh being bitten and torn apart. Even though there was a stone door between them, it was as if it was happening right in front of their eyes. The man could not help but hug the woman in his arms tightly, even though they could not stop trembling.
"Lu Ming, you're leaving us in the lurch!
Back then, you promised my father that you would take good care of me and my mother. Now that my mother is in danger, you're hiding in the stone house like a turtle, not daring to come out. How can you face your dead brother? I hate you, I'll curse you for the rest of my life, Lu Ming, you'll die a horrible death!
I hate it, why did my father have such an ungrateful brother … I hate it …! "
In the blink of an eye, the tender voice that belonged to the child outside the door was no longer there. Instead, it turned into an old and stern voice, as if the youth was no longer there. A wave of desolate resentment and heart-wrenching aura passed through the gap of the stone door.
The oil lamp in the stone house suddenly dimmed, and the flame swayed violently, as if it would go out at any time. The air was filled with a cold and bitter atmosphere, making people feel like they were in the middle of a cold and desolate winter.
Lu Ming stared fixedly at the stone door. His eyes were completely red. Even though he already knew that everything outside was just an illusion, the miserable words still pierced deep into his heart like a sharp knife, making him terrified.
Finally, it came to an abrupt stop accompanied by a long and awe-inspiring call!
The voice seemed to be mixed with endless hatred. Purple blood slowly seeped in through the gap below the tightly shut stone door. It was a shocking sight.
The scene in front of them caused everyone in the stone house to tremble. Being called out by this evil spirit, it was as if even their souls were trembling!
Finally, the outside of the stone house became quiet, but everyone became even more vigilant. These evil spirits could see through people's minds, and if they were the slightest bit careless, they would fall into their trap.
The scene in front of them played out in every stone house in the tribe. Countless cries rang out in the ears of the tribesmen, some calling for help, some calling for companions. The scene was shocking to the eye.
Even though Xiao Chen had warned the tribesmen on the night of the ghosts that no matter what happened outside, they were not to open the stone door. But not everyone was as lucky as Lu Ming and the others. The evil spirits could see through people's minds and were good at detecting their weaknesses. There were a few tribesmen who still fell into the trap of these evil spirits and opened the stone door. Fortunately, they were rescued by the Blood Refining Realm cultivators.
After all, they were his own tribesmen. How could Xiao Chen allow these evil spirits to wreak havoc? But the Blood Refining Realm cultivator's Qi and blood were as dazzling as the sun in the eyes of these evil spirits. They swarmed forward, as if they would not stop until they bit off a piece of flesh.
After a few breaths, outside the stone city of the tribe, green flames surged into the sky and ghost fires danced. The mass of black fog seemed to have sensed something. "A bunch of trash. They can't even handle such a small matter. It's just a small human tribe, but they are so difficult to deal with. Forget it, I originally wanted to let the children force out that human cultivator with a powerful soul perception. Since that's the case, I will personally take action. No one can stop me from advancing to the Ghost Commander Realm!"
As the voice fell, the mass of black fog did not move. Instead, it turned to the ghost fires behind it and said sternly, "The sky is about to brighten, and the Yin Qi is dissipating. Follow me and kill our way in. Let's start tonight's gluttonous feast!"
In an instant, more than ten rays of darkness turned into black smoke and surged towards the Gu Yuan Tribe.
This was the moment!
In the stone tower at the center of the tribe, Xiao Chen, who was sitting on a stone chair, suddenly stood up. At this moment, he was the only one left in the main hall. The other Blood Refining Realm cultivators had been sent out by him to save their people when the Ghost Race was wreaking havoc.
"They finally showed up!"
Two sharp lights flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes. After waiting for so long, this malicious ghost finally couldn't help but make a move.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
In the next moment, more than ten Ghost Generals joined in. The Ghost Qi in the Gu Yuan Tribe flourished, and thick black fog filled the air. Tens of thousands of ghosts screamed at the same time. It was hard to imagine how many malicious ghosts had appeared in the Gu Yuan Tribe at this moment.
Ghost Cry!
At this moment, the people in the Gu Yuan Tribe in the stone houses heard the screams of the malicious ghosts. They immediately covered their ears, and the weaker ones even collapsed to the ground. The sound was like a complaint, and it seemed to penetrate the depths of their souls, making it difficult for them to extricate themselves. They lost all their strength. Even those who could withstand the ghost cry felt cold all over. Their bodies were suppressed, and their combat power was greatly reduced.
"Demons and monsters, how dare you cause trouble here!"
In the next moment, a blazing sun rose above the stone tower at the center of the Gu Yuan Tribe, illuminating the surroundings of the stone tower. This light carried a strong Yang Qi, and the ghosts in the tribe melted like snow under the illumination of this blazing sun. Some of the more powerful Ghost Race members were burned to ashes by the flames before they could even scream. Not even a trace of them was left.
"Ah!"
Waves of miserable screams rang out, and the cold aura was incinerated by the flames. Even the remaining malicious ghosts became illusory under the illumination of the blazing sun, and their strength was greatly reduced. The original ghostly cries and howls were immediately dispersed, and they could no longer affect the people in the tribe.
The Ghost Race under the stone tower was immediately driven away, and a vacuum was created. Without the rampaging Ghost Race, the people who had been harassed by the Ghost Race finally had a moment to breathe.
