Chapter 1433: Chapter 704: Ancient City, Ghostly Creatures?
It is said that deep in the hills behind the town, a spiritual spring is hidden, capable of purifying the spirit and cleansing the body.
Every year, only a very few destined people can find it, bathe in it, and thus gain incredible power and insights.
Upon hearing this legend, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged glances, their eyes gleaming with excitement.
They knew that this was likely one of their upcoming adventure goals.
So, after staying in the town for a few days to consolidate their cultivation and gather more information about this continent, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang set out on their journey once again.
Following the residents’ guidance, they ventured into the depths of the hills, filled with curiosity and anticipation for the unknown.
...
The hills behind the town.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang walked side by side.
"Luo Chen, do you think we can find that spiritual spring?"
Qing Shuang asked somewhat apprehensively, her eyes shining with anticipation.
Luo Chen smiled faintly, his eyes full of firmness and confidence: "As long as we believe, we will surely find it. Besides, we’ve been blessed by the gods, what could we possibly not achieve?"
Qing Shuang nodded, a warm rush filling her heart.
She knew that as long as Luo Chen was by her side, no matter how difficult the road ahead, she had nothing to fear.
They continued forward, passing through dense forests and crossing rugged cliffs.
Along the way, they encountered various strange creatures, some friendly, some fierce.
However, regardless of what they encountered, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang handled everything with a calm heart, ultimately turning danger into safety.
Finally, on a sunny afternoon, they arrived at a quiet valley.
The valley was shrouded in a faint mist, the air filled with a fresh fragrance.
In the center of the valley, there was a spring of crystal-clear water, emitting a faint spirit light.
"This is the legendary spiritual spring!"
Qing Shuang exclaimed in delight.
Luo Chen’s eyes sparkled with excitement, and he nodded: "Yes, this is the place we’ve been looking for."
They approached the spring, feeling the mysterious power within.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged a glance, filled with anticipation in their hearts.
They knew that this time bathing in the spiritual spring would bring them unprecedented power and insights.
So they gently removed their clothes and slowly walked into the spring.
The water was warm and gentle, as if washing over their bodies and spirits.
With the baptism of the spiritual spring, they felt a powerful force surging inside them, as though the whole world was unfolding before them.
After bathing, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt refreshed, filled with dreams of the future in their hearts.
"Let’s go, Qing Shuang," Luo Chen said with a smile.
Qing Shuang nodded, her eyes full of determination: "Okay."
The two left the spring hand in hand, riding two ordinary horses, heading aimlessly forward.
After all, adventures are something to be embarked upon gradually.
There’s no need to rush, no need to rush.
...
A month later.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, somewhat travel-worn, arrived outside an ancient city.
This ancient city was called Nanning City.
The size of the ancient city was enormous.
A queue was at the city gate, with countless citizens and cultivators wanting to enter the city.
At the city gate, soldiers were maintaining order, along with some cultivators native to Nanning City.
At this time, they seemed to be watching the people entering the city with somewhat grave and serious expressions.
No one knew what they were inspecting.
"We’ve arrived."
Luo Chen lightly tapped Qing Shuang’s shoulder, speaking in a low voice: "It seems this ancient city is quite unusual; we should proceed with caution."
Qing Shuang nodded, a trace of wariness flashing in her eyes: "Yes, I’ll be careful."
The two moved forward slowly with the queue, Luo Chen’s gaze sweeping over the soldiers and cultivators at the gate, trying to discern something.
He noticed that the soldiers paid particular attention to the backs of the hands of those entering the city.
"Could it be some special mark?" Luo Chen speculated silently.
Finally, it was their turn. A soldier stepped forward and politely said, "Please show your hands."
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged a glance and then extended their hands. The soldier examined them carefully as if looking for some specific mark.
"Are you two cultivators from outside?" the soldier asked.
"Yes, we just arrived from out of town," Luo Chen replied.
The soldier nodded and motioned for them to enter the city.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang breathed a sigh of relief and led their horses into Nanning City.
Inside the city, it was bustling, with shops lining the streets and vendors calling out one after another.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang led their horses and slowly moved forward, observing their surroundings.
"It seems that this ancient city is heavily guarded; something important must have occurred."
Qing Shuang said in a low voice.
Luo Chen nodded: "Let’s find a place to settle first and then slowly gather information."
They found an inn that looked fairly clean, handed their horses over to the inn boy to take care of, and went inside.
Luo Chen inquired with the innkeeper and learned that indeed, some unusual events had happened recently in Nanning City.
Whenever night fell, sounds akin to ghostly cries echoed through the city from time to time.
Moreover, some citizens even claimed to have seen these so-called ghost-like entities.
But these were not the most horrifying aspects.
The truly terrifying part was that every night would inexplicably end with a few city dwellers mysteriously dead.
