Chapter 1293: Bleak Souls and Reincarnation
"According to my knowledge, the Hundred Ghost Forest is a very dangerous place, and we know next to nothing about it, so isn't this too risky a course of action?" Shi Chuankong asked with tightly furrowed brows.
"How much do you know about this Hundred Ghost Forest, Fellow Daoist Shi?" Han Li asked.
"I don't know a whole lot, but I've heard that there are many bleak souls in the Hundred Ghost Forest that are very troublesome to deal with," Shi Chuankong replied.
"What are bleak souls?" Han Li asked, and Weeping Soul, Jin Tong, and Violet Spirit also turned to him with curious expressions.
"Normally, there's a limit on the number of times that a soul can enter the cycle of reincarnations, but there are some souls that possess exceptional aptitude or were able to exceed this limit due to other special reasons. These souls will gradually turn into bleak souls, which possess no intelligence, only a basic instinct for slaughter.
“Due to the special environment in this Hundred Ghost Forest, it has become a perfect gathering place for these bleak souls, making it a very dangerous place," Shi Chuankong explained.
"No matter how powerful these bleak souls are, they're still souls, are they not? Surely they'll be easier to deal with than the four major tribes," Weeping Soul said.
"I agree. With Weeping Soul on our side, no souls will be able to pose any threat to us," Jin Tong chimed in in agreement.
"In that case, let's try our luck through the Hundred Ghost Forest," Shi Chuankong acquiesced with a nod.
With the decision made, the group immediately flew into the Hundred Ghost Forest.
Inside the forest, visibility was limited to no more than several dozen feet, but thankfully, spiritual sense remained uninhibited here, so they were able to traverse through the forest without too much trouble.
