103: Demons dance wildly, ghosts draw near.

A group of naked people appeared before their eyes.

Their bodies were covered in wounds; some were headless, some were missing arms, and others were missing legs. Some even had their intestines and hearts ripped out and draped over their bodies, while others had the flesh over their hearts brutally gouged out.

Their faces were riddled with wounds, a bloody mess of mangled flesh. They had died in horrific ways, and the raw muscle rolling out from their skin was clearly visible.

Even worse, some had maggots crawling on their faces, making for a terrifying sight.

They were all suspended in mid-air, staring at Zhang Dada and the others with hideous expressions.

Meng Ziyi couldn't help but cry out in alarm. Even Yang Mi, Wu Jing, and Zhang Dada couldn't help but gasp.

Their eyes were filled with terror.

What was going on? Why were there so many 'people'?

“Sister Mi!”

Reba subconsciously grabbed Yang Mi's hand, leaning closer to her side. She actually wanted to grab Ye Bai's hand more, but the distance was a bit far, so she could only rely on Yang Mi.

Bai Lu, Meng Ziyi, and Yang Chaoyue huddled together, none of them daring to open their eyes to look.

Now they could only shrink their necks and shiver uncontrollably.

They had thought the water was cold before, but now it felt even colder.

“So... the ones who made me look back just now were them...”

Cai Xukun's lips trembled. He stood frozen in place, his voice shaking as he spoke.

He was now completely stunned.

His brain had stopped functioning.

When Wu Jing saw these Ghosts, he was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted. They couldn't stay here; they had to leave, they had to leave immediately.

“Go!”

“Move quickly, we can't delay any longer. Let's go!”

As Wu Jing spoke, he pulled Huang Zitao behind him and urged Reba and Yang Mi in front of him.

Yang Mi and Reba finally snapped out of it and turned to run, only to see Ye Bai standing at the front, with no intention of moving.

“Ye Bai, let's go, quickly!”

Seeing Ye Bai not moving, Wu Jing couldn't help but urge him. With so many Ghosts blocking them from behind, they had to leave right away.

Ye Bai didn't move, instead staring straight ahead.

Yang Mi followed Ye Bai's gaze, and with one look, her feet, which were about to move, froze in place.

Because the same situation had appeared in front of them. Those Ghosts were also suspended in mid-air, staring at them with hideous faces.

They were blocked; they couldn't move forward, and they couldn't retreat.

“Brother Jing... Reba, the way ahead is blocked too.”

Yang Mi was the first to speak, her voice trembling as she did so.

It wasn't that they hadn't seen female Ghosts before—they had indeed seen them on the boat earlier—but this was the first time they had seen such terrifying Ghosts.

The main reason was that their deaths were truly too miserable.

Especially the flesh on the belly, which was even connected to the intestines; that blood was truly terrifying to behold.

“It's over! We're blocked again.”

Wu Jing gave a bitter smile. If these were zombies, they could at least put up a fight. Even if they couldn't win, they wouldn't just sit and wait for death.

But what were they supposed to do about these Ghosts?

Without physical bodies, they couldn't be hit. He estimated that before they were even beaten to death, they might very well be disgusted to death or scared to death.

The atmosphere grew heavy again, like a giant boulder pressing on their hearts, threatening to suffocate them at any moment.

Inside the Live Stream Room—

[Holy crap! Are those Ghosts? Am I seeing f*cking Ghosts? And a whole group of them?]

[Oh my god! Those Ghosts really died so miserably! This is practically a visual feast... a very intense visual feast...]

[D*mn! Now when I close my eyes, all I see are those Ghosts' miserable deaths. I want to pee, but I don't dare go. I'm afraid I'll see a headless Ghost in the bathroom or that one that died so horribly.]

[D*mn! I wasn't that scared at first, but after you said that, I'm f*cking terrified too. I don't dare go either.]

[It's terrifying just for us to watch, so what's the deal with these people? How did they end up like this? Can someone explain?]

[Explain my ass, I just want my Da Mimi to get out of there.]

[Even though I'm scared, I have absolute confidence in Brother Ye Bai. I believe he can lead everyone out. Didn't he deal with those female Ghosts before?]

[That's true, but I still find it terrifying. I know Ye Bai is amazing, but that doesn't affect my fear of these Ghosts at all...]

The viewers expressed their concern for the celebrities; these Ghosts were truly too terrifying now.

The visual impact was so intense that they could hardly handle it.

The professors at the Archaeology Academy also hadn't expected there to be so many Vengeful Spirits in these Passages, and they could tell just by looking that they had died very miserable deaths.

They hadn't expected there to be so many Vengeful Spirits in this place.

“Could this place be some kind of Sacrificial Burial Pit?”

“It's very likely!”

“There's a significant number of these Ghosts. Where are the remains?”

The professors were all stunned after seeing these images.

They were even guessing where the bones of these people were buried.

“Do you think they might be at the bottom of the water?”

Professor Guo seemed to think of something and suddenly spoke in horror.

Boom.

The professors' minds were instantly blown; it was a possibility.

The water level was so deep; who knew what might be hidden down there?

“The issue now isn't obsessing over the bones at the bottom of the water, but what these Ghosts will do to the celebrities.”

“They're completely stuck now.”

Professor Qian was most concerned about their safety at the moment.

Inside the Tomb.

The Vengeful Spirits were slowly approaching Zhang Dada, Wu Jing, and the others. A wave of Yin Qi caused everyone to shiver repeatedly.

Cai Xukun looked at the headless Ghost in front of him. At some point, a head had appeared in its hands.

The face on that head wore a sinister smirk.

“Do you want to help me hold my head? I've been holding it for many years, and I'm very tired. Could you help me put my head back on?”

The Ghost was the first to approach Cai Xukun, holding its head in both hands and offering it to him.

Cai Xukun's face turned as white as paper. He shook his head repeatedly, his body continuously shrinking back.

He was very resistant to its approach.

“Don't... don't come over here!”

“Who wants to put your head back on?!”

“Don't come over, stay away!”

Cai Xukun continued to shrink back, while Zhang Dada and Huang Zitao also dodged backward, their expressions looking none too good either.

As Cai Xukun retreated, they retreated along with him.

“Why won't you help me put my head back on? Without a head, I won't be able to see the way. Why won't you help me?”

“You must help me, or else I'll kill you.”

The head glared at Cai Xukun, its tone now filled with fury.
