“Damn it, this tiger has already become like this!”
Heavy Pupils kept observing the tiger.
The tiger’s body was filled with black Qi, and it was clearly this black Qi that was sustaining its movements.
“Strange, these black Qi are clearly incredibly dense Death Qi, so how can they still sustain this tiger’s movements? Something might be wrong!”
Xiao Bai secretly slipped out of Qin Xuan’s embrace and peeked over.
Looking at this thing, he was incredibly serious, clearly realizing that this thing was not simple.
“This is a bit troublesome, this thing might be difficult to deal with.”
As Xiao Bai spoke, Qin Xuan merely shook his head slightly.
Deal with it? He wouldn't rush to act. Before observing clearly, he would first research it a bit and only then decide once he was sure there were no problems.
Therefore, he wouldn't act rashly.
After looking around, the tiger lowered its head and sniffed the surroundings.
Fortunately, Qin Xuan had prepared in advance along the way, hiding his aura, so the fierce tiger didn't sniff out anything.
After confirming there were no issues, the tiger raised its head, its half-black, half-white head swaying, then immediately turned and leaped across the river, rushing back into the dense forest.
“Sure enough, I felt something in this dense forest before. It seems there are quite a few things filled with Death Qi in the dense forest!”
After a moment of thought, Qin Xuan continued forward.
This time, he moved much more cautiously.
“It’s best not to use the Array Plate for now. After that guy interfered with its position, the Array Plate has been very off. I must be careful to avoid any problems.”
After arriving here, Qin Xuan had checked the Array Plate more than once. The Array Plate did indeed have some issues, and until he understood them, this item should be used with caution.
“Under normal circumstances, the Array Plate can at most span a hundred thousand miles. The Kun Peng Nest is in the East Sea, but Ghost Mountain is already in the East Region Southern, not far from the Southern Border. So, I really can’t use the Array Plate for a short time.”
“And…”
Qin Xuan looked around, feeling a bit apprehensive.
“I don’t know if it’s my illusion, but I always feel that once I truly use the Array Plate, not only will I be unable to leave this place, but I will also be discovered by the master of this place and then obliterated!”
This feeling was very strong, so Qin Xuan had not used the Array Plate from beginning to end.
“I’ll still follow this river forward and find a way out!”
With that, Qin Xuan continued forward.
However, this river was much longer than Qin Xuan had imagined; continuing forward, he never reached its end.
Just as Qin Xuan was about to continue forward, suddenly, a roar that pierced the clouds and split rocks came from ahead. A moment later, a chilling wind swept through the surroundings, and waves of a bloody scent spread from the front.
“What is this?”
Qin Xuan immediately looked up ahead.
Why would there be such a mournful roar here?
The roar lasted for more than ten breaths before stopping.
“Should I go take a look?”
Qin Xuan hesitated.
The sound didn’t sound right no matter how he listened, so Qin Xuan pondered whether to go take a look.
“Let’s not go, this place can’t possibly be a good place. We should still follow the river to leave here and see if we can find a chance to get out.”
Xiao Bai, however, expressed his opposition.
After entering here, he already felt very uncomfortable, and the surrounding environment made him wish he could leave immediately.
“Splash!”
Just as Qin Xuan and Xiao Bai were communicating telepathically, a sound came from the surroundings.
The ground around him suddenly began to crack, and bony white clawed hands stretched out from beneath.
“This!”
Qin Xuan hastily retreated to the side, staring intently at his surroundings.
The surrounding land continuously shattered, and skeletons crawled out from underground.
“Damn it, how can there be so many skeletons!”
Qin Xuan was dumbfounded, and with a leap, he jumped directly onto a nearby tree.
“Awooo!”
Just then, the blood river beside them churned.
Bony skeletons emerged from the blood river and crawled onto the surrounding ground.
“Have I been discovered?”
Qin Xuan’s eyes flickered as he carefully surveyed his surroundings.
The skeletons crawling out of the river were covered in fresh blood, which continuously dripped, staining the land on both sides of the river crimson.
“Awooo!”
More and more skeletons continuously crawled out from underground and from the riverbed.
“Not only human skeletons, but also various beasts, Qin Xuan, look over there!”
Just then, Han Ye also noticed the unusual situation. At this moment, not only human skeletons were emerging from the surrounding ground, but also many beast skeletons appeared here.
Unlike humans, these beasts had not completely turned into bones; many of them still carried decaying flesh.
Black Qi continuously emanated from them, looking incredibly grotesque and terrifying.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the area beneath the trees and by the river was already filled with various skeletons.
“What is this for?”
Qin Xuan was puzzled.
The skeletons below made no movement, simply standing stiffly in place, making it impossible to guess what they wanted to do.
“Although Ghost Mountain is a Jedi, how can there be so many skeletons here? Although I can’t see the upstream and downstream conditions of the river, I can imagine that the situation there should be similar to ours. Calculating this way, who knows how many skeletons are here!”
“How did these skeletons appear here?”
Qin Xuan looked at the surrounding skeletons with confusion, his brows furrowed.
Just as Qin Xuan was frowning in thought, a mournful horn sound came from the side, incredibly eerie, sounding like the wailing of a ghost.
“What is that!”
Qin Xuan stared intently at the blood river.
The sound came from within the blood river, so it should obviously be in the blood river.
Qin Xuan stared intently at the blood river, his expression also becoming serious.
The situation in the blood river was already very abnormal!
“Splash!”
A moment later, the blood river churned, and then blood waves rolled within it, parting.
Immediately, a knight riding a skeleton horse emerged from the river.
The knight’s head was completely rotten, but a green flame occasionally flickered in the eye sockets.
Rusted armor was draped over his body, and a withered bony claw held a bone horn, which he continuously blew.
As the mournful horn sound echoed all around, these skeletons on the bank actually began to line up to the sound of the horn.
A moment later, all these skeletons had formed a single line!
The knight leaped up, rushing directly from the blood river onto the bank. The skeleton horse took a few steps forward, and then the knight walked forward, with the surrounding skeletons following him.
In the distance, horn sounds also continuously echoed.
By this point, even without seeing it, Qin Xuan could guess the situation over there.
“It seems there are quite a few of these skeleton knights!”
