C2759 Two-faced Ghost Buddha

"Damn it..."

Helpless, Feng Yixiu could only give up on getting close to Nine Sins Palace from high up in the sky. Instead, he chose to land.

With Zhong Yun, who was very familiar with the Hundred Ghosts Capital, leading the way, it was unlikely that he would be blind. The group continued to pass through the streets of the Hundred Ghosts Capital.

However, what puzzled Feng Yixiu was that ever since they landed on the ground... There was no movement from the leader of the Hundred Ghosts at all. If it wasn't for the constant ear-piercing laughter coming from all directions, he really suspected that this place had become an empty city.

It had been almost an hour since Feng Yixiu and his group stepped into the Capital of Hundred Ghosts. They did not seem to have made much progress except running all the way.

"Huhuhu..."

In order to save as much time as possible, Feng Yixiu's footsteps could not help but become hurried. Everyone followed his footsteps and felt very tired. In a short while, they were gasping for breath.

"Everyone, take a rest for a while." Feng Yixiu suddenly stopped his footsteps and looked at the surrounding buildings with suspicion. His expression became more and more serious.

"Young master, we have been traveling for about an hour, but why do I feel that the distance between us and Nine Sins Imperial Palace hasn't changed much?" The Nine-Colored Dragon King also noticed the clues and said softly.

"As the saying goes, a horse that runs on a mountain dies. Perhaps this Nine Sins Imperial Palace is even farther than we imagined." The Skydark hall master softly muttered.

"I'm afraid things aren't that simple..." Feng Yixiu's eyes were gloomy. He immediately used an extremely covert method to make a mark under his feet. He then said in a solemn voice, "Time is of the essence. We will continue on our journey once we have rested!"

Ever since they had entered the Hundred Ghost Capital, everything seemed ordinary and unpredictable. This was completely different from the extremely dangerous Hundred Ghost Night Formation that he had expected.

However, Feng Yixiu was clearly aware that the true fatal danger was hidden within the ordinary. This seemingly safer time, it was likely that he had already fallen into a bottomless abyss.

"Understood!"

Everyone knew the importance of time. Every moment of delay would bring Hu Jiu'er an additional danger, so they did not have any complaints as they continued to follow the footsteps of Zhong Yun.

Another quarter of an hour passed in the blink of an eye. Feng Yixiu, who was rushing at a high speed, suddenly stopped and looked at the familiar mark under his feet. His face became extremely pale and an unknown fear surged into his heart.

"Big Brother Feng, what happened to you?" Shen Ruyu walked up and asked with a puzzled face.

"We seem to have been staying at the same place all this time..." Feng Yixiu clenched his fists and said in a serious voice.

Everyone involuntarily looked at each other when they heard this. Immediately, they looked at the surrounding buildings vigilantly.

The ancient buildings in the Hundred Ghost Capital seemed to be similar. Moreover, the lighting was dim. If one did not observe carefully, one would not be able to distinguish the location of the buildings. However, if they stopped and observed carefully, they could still barely determine that this was the exact position where they had stepped into the Hundred Ghost Gate.

This meant that they had spent nearly two hours, and they had actually been standing at the same spot all along!

"Brother Zhong Yun, what exactly is going on?" The Blizzard Lion King glanced at Zhong Yun, who was leading the way, and questioned.

"I don't know what's going on either. It's not my first time coming to the Capital of Hundred Ghosts. Not to mention that I know every street like the back of my hand, but I definitely won't get lost..." The sudden appearance of such a strange situation caused Zhong Yun to lose his sense of propriety. He muttered in a low voice.

"I heard that you were a member of the Flower of Evil before this. Could it be that you have turned against us at the last minute?" The Netherheaven hall master crossed his arms in front of his chest, his face full of doubt.

"Don't slander me. This is indeed my fault, but I have absolutely no intention of betraying you!" Zhong Yun loudly retorted.

"Then how can you explain why you brought so many of us here to circle around? Now, the fate of the Nine-Tailed Empress is unknown. Every delay would add danger to the situation. Such a low-level mistake would appear at such a crucial moment. How are you going to make us believe you? " The Blizzard Lion King was furious, and his tone was somewhat aggressive.

"I'm more worried about the safety of the Nine-Tailed Monarch than anyone else. I didn't mean for this to happen!" Zhong Yun was so anxious that his face was flushed red as well, and he explained in a stern voice.

"Enough, all of you shut up!"

Feng Yixiu's angry shout silenced the scene that was about to go out of control. Then, he said loudly, "I know Brother Zhong Yun's character very well. He will never betray us. All of this is very likely to be caused by a certain leader of the Hundred Ghosts who is hiding in the dark. This internal strife of yours is exactly what the enemy wants!"

The Blizzard Lion Emperor, the Netherheaven hall master, and the others quietly lowered their heads upon hearing this. They did not dare to say anything else when they heard this. The rest of the people who were about to open their mouths to attack also did not dare to say anything.

This Hundred Ghost Night Night Array was different from those array formations that focused on increasing one's martial strength. The reason why it caused one to tremble in fear was mainly because it was strange and unpredictable. It could often cause the enemy to unconsciously collapse mentally.1

"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. However, no matter what, this is my fault. After the matter is settled, it is not excessive for Your Majesty to punish me. However, the most important thing now is to discuss a countermeasure." Zhong Yun bowed slightly, his expression still unable to conceal his guilt.

"It is good that you are aware of this..." Feng Yixiu gently patted Zhong Yun's shoulder. He immediately asked, "It is likely that the leader of the Hundred Ghosts, who is skilled in illusion technique, is the one who is able to cause one to lose their direction. Do you know what kind of monsters are skilled in this Dao among all kinds of monsters? "

"Among the Hundred Ghost leaders, the one who is best at illusion technique is clam Lou Qi. However, I have already paid great attention to it when I was rushing over. There is no possibility of me being bewitched by an illusion." Zhong Yun thought for a moment and said with certainty.

The Thousand Apparition Sea Monster King was a master of illusion technique. Naturally, it was impossible for him to be fooled by illusions. Hence, this possibility was completely excluded.

"This is strange. Since we are not blinded by the illusion, how did the other party make us lose our way?" Feng Yixiu stroked his chin and said in a puzzled manner.

"By the way, there is also the leader of the Hundred Ghosts. He may have the ability to make us lose our direction!" Zhong Yun seemed to have thought of a possibility and suddenly exclaimed.

"Oh? I wonder what kind of Hundred Ghosts Leader it is!" Feng Yixiu's eyes lit up and immediately asked.

"Two-faced Ghost Buddha, he possesses the ability to reverse the Universe. He can cause people to lose their sense of direction by accident." Zhong Yun explained the guesses in his mind and continued, "However, this ability is mostly used on the battlefield to cause enemies to turn against each other. I never thought that it would have such a strange use. However, I was careless for a moment... "

"It can actually reverse the sense of direction. No wonder we've always been at the same place." Feng Yixiu also came to a realization. He then said in a serious tone, "I think it should be this double-faced ghost Buddha who is playing a prank on us. I wonder if there is any way to break it?"
