Mo Lin stood there, his face pale as a ghost.

It wasn't that he didn't want to act just now.

The blue-clothed Mo Lin had been signaling to Mo Lin.

Telling Mo Lin not to come out.

By the time Mo Lin came to his senses, it was already too late.

Dead....

Looking at the blue-clothed Mo Lin's corpse, it was as if he was seeing his own future.

Mo Lin's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

It wasn't that Mo Lin didn't dare to act; he couldn't.

The blue-clothed Mo Lin used his death to tell Mo Lin not to come out.

There must be something else in the West Mountain.

Never mind if Mo Lin could defeat the people from West River, but if he acted now,

it would be disrespectful to the already deceased blue-clothed Mo Lin.

Knowing there was danger, yet charging forward foolishly, that would be absolute stupidity.

So... Mo Lin held back.

The scene was silent.

Everyone was staring at the blue-clothed Mo Lin.

Dead... actually dead.

No one expected that the blue-clothed Mo Lin would die.

At this moment, it felt as if the sky had fallen.

Wu Haibing's mind was flooded with one thought: Mo Lin is dead... The human world is without hope.

Unless Human Immortal Cui Xinyun appeared, only then could the tide of battle be turned.

But for some reason, Cui Xinyun had vanished since leaving West Mountain.

The battle among the crowd continued.

Zhen Lingling was the main fighting force.

Chen Xi is a spirit god, formidable and battling alongside Joyful Arhat.

Jiang Yun was stunned, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face.

"Benefactor... Benefactor...."

In her mind, Mo Lin was an undefeated warrior.

Seeing Mo Lin killed, her heart ached deeply, tears flowing uncontrollably.

"Everyone, follow me and leave here." Zhen Lingling ordered.

She knew very well that they couldn't win this battle.

With her True Martial Emperor's abilities, they couldn't win, but she could lead these people away.

Thus, under Zhen Lingling's guidance, they left.

Joyful Arhat did not pursue, nor did Bai Xu.

Just watched as Zhen Lingling protected the crowd as they left.

In the distance, Bai Xu murmured: "Dead just like that? Died too easily.

Seems Mo Lin isn't as powerful as rumored."

"He's dead. Everyone can come out now." Bai Xu shouted to the distance.

The statues of Joyful Arhat around them suddenly trembled, stones gradually falling off.

Then revealed strange bodies.

These were rotting corpses, each adorned with a yellow talisman.

Sharp wailing sounds emanated from each corpse.

A group of ghosts sealed within the corpses.

A word appeared in Mo Lin's mind at that moment.

Corpse and Soul Destruction Array.

A particularly sinister array; people who enter it die with the ghosts who designed it.

An array that destroys souls.

But that's not all.

Mo Lin also sensed a powerful force.

In this West Mountain, there should be an Evil God.

Mo Lin chose to avoid the fight.

Not because he feared death.

If he died, how could he seek revenge?

Who would avenge him?

Mo Lin's methods are too limited now, he needs to gather more strength to take revenge.

The West Mountain was too eerie.

Man-eating Buddha... harmful Evil God.

To counter these, he must make himself strong enough.

After leaving West Mountain, Mo Lin went to Yunhua Dao again.

Mo Lin wanted to find Cui Xinyun.

If he teamed up with Cui Xinyun, Mo Lin could face the West Mountain.

Everything was as usual, exceptionally quiet.

Perhaps because many people have died recently.

The streets were almost devoid of people.

As for ghosts, there were also far fewer.

The Yunhua Dao, previously filled with ghosts, now had not a trace of them.

People here were also much fewer.

Mo Lin passed through several villages, not seeing a single soul.

Mo Lin arrived at Jin County, near Yunhua Dao.

Mo Lin wanted to find out if anyone knew about Cui Xinyun.

Jin County's streets had few people.

And Mo Lin discovered something strange; everyone here had a large "Buddha" character on their doors.

Mo Lin entered a small shop, bought a bottle of water, and asked the owner: "Owner, why is there a Buddha character on the door?"

"Faith in Buddha."

The owner slowly said to Mo Lin: "Once you believe in Buddha, you won't have to worry about ghostly disturbances."

Clearly, someone was promoting Buddhist culture here.

As Mo Lin walked down the street, in a corner, a bald man in yellow Buddhist robes was crouched, gnawing on something.

As the bald man turned his head, his lips were covered in blood.

The smile he gave sent shivers down Spines.

It was the first time Mo Lin saw such a scene of humans eating humans.

In the instant Mo Lin met the bald man's eyes, he was stunned.

Mo Lin recognized the man; wasn't he Zhao Tian?

They had once entered the Yellow Springs Realm together.

Unexpectedly, they met in this manner.

Zhao Tian also seemed momentarily stunned, quickly wiping away the blood from his mouth.

"Mo Lin, why are you here?" Zhao Tian asked Mo Lin.

"I'm looking for Cui Xinyun."

Zhao Tian raised his hands, placing them before him, shaking, like the zombies in videos, clawing at doors.

"Mo Lin, save me... save me..."

Zhao Tian's eyes were red, tears flowing uncontrolled from the corners.

Though tears fell, he wore a smile.

It looked very odd.

"Kill me... kill me.... Quickly.. kill me."

Zhao Tian spoke contradictorily, asking Mo Lin to save him then demanding Mo Lin kill him.

It was very weird.

Suddenly, Zhao Tian's hands were on Mo Lin's throat, blood vessels standing out in his eyes.

"Kill me, I beg you, kill me... I'm in such pain."

Mo Lin summoned the Netherworld's Nether Fire, and in the next moment, the dark flames engulfed Zhao Tian.

Within the flames, Zhao Tian seemed to regain a bit of his senses.

"Mo Lin... Never pray to Buddha; and avoid eating offerings in Buddhist temples.

Otherwise, you'll turn out like me, neither human nor ghost." Zhao Tian shrieked, painfully warning Mo Lin.

"What's going on with you?" Mo Lin asked again, still unsure of Zhao Tian's condition.

Zhao Tian wasn't possessed.

Being possessed wouldn't manifest this way.

Controlling him seemed unlikely, as no other force was sensed.

If he had to describe it, it was akin to insanity.

Saying things without coherence.

Even unable to properly answer Mo Lin's questions.

"What have you been through?" Mo Lin asked Zhao Tian once more.

Zhao Tian grabbed Mo Lin's shoulder, his expression twisted, "Go.."

Then he pushed Mo Lin away.

Mo Lin watched Zhao Tian's departing direction.

Mo Lin suddenly noticed something peculiar.

The people around were converging towards a direction.

Just as Mo Lin was about to investigate, an arm yanked Mo Lin into a corner.

"Mo Lin, is it really you?" came a crisp voice.

Mo Lin turned towards the source, it was a woman dressed in black and white.

Her hair tied high, revealing her beautiful face.

Mo Lin recognized her; she was the woman he met in Xu Yue City before.

Qin Yuyu.

Back then, they faced life and death together in Xu Yue City.

Their relationship was excellent.

"Why are you here?" Mo Lin was equally surprised at seeing Qin Yuyu.

"The Evil Buddha has entered the human world. My master predicted, told me to venture forth as an opportunity may arise.

So I came out."

Qin Yuyu asked Mo Lin: "And you? Why are you here?"

"I'm looking for Cui Xinyun."

"Human Immortal Cui Xinyun?" Qin Yuyu asked Mo Lin.

"Yes." Mo Lin nodded.

"I saw her a few days ago." Qin Yuyu slowly replied to Mo Lin.
