Chapter 937: The Ghost Carrying the Mountain Spirit Appears
"This..."
Mu Yan looked puzzled.
"Dad, you are the Shura Dao Lord of the True Immortal Realm. You are also a famous strong man in the True Immortal Realm. Don't you even know the location of the Ksitigarbha Cave?" Mu Yan said in surprise.
"Haha, Yan'er, you think too highly of me. Although I am the Shura Dao Lord and I am in charge of a part of the True Immortal Realm, I don't know everything about the world."
The Shura Dao Lord smiled gently.
Seeing Mu Yan so curious, he smiled again and said, "There is indeed a True Immortal who can know everything about the world, but that guy is too mysterious. I heard that tens of millions of years ago, he went astray while practicing in seclusion. His soul was divided into two. The weak part has never entered reincarnation and its whereabouts are still unknown. The strong part, however, travels through the myriad worlds, looking for the residual soul."
Mu Yan's eyes lit up when she heard this.
"Dad, could it be that the old friend you are looking for is the guy who knew everything about the True Immortal Realm back then?"
"That's right!"
The Shura Dao Lord nodded.
After a pause, he said, "However, he doesn't seem to be called by his original name now. I asked someone to find out, and he seems to be called Ghost Carrying Mountain Soul."
...
Lin Fan, who was in retreat at the Qiu family, naturally didn't know about this.
That day, he was meditating in the Lingmiao Immortal Picture.
Soon, a strong pressure suddenly appeared in the Qiu family mansion.
The startled Lin Fan and Lan Lan rushed out of the retreat room at the same time.
"Husband, do you know what happened? Why did such a terrifying strong man suddenly appear?" Lan Lan looked outside the wing room vigilantly.
Lin Fan seemed to be normal, but he was inexplicably shocked.
His clear and bright eyes moved quickly. When he saw that the one emitting the terrifying pressure was actually a giant with an illusory figure, like a mountain, Lin Fan was even more unbelievable.
"This... is actually the Ghost Carrying Mountain Soul?"
After thinking carefully, Lin Fan understood something instantly.
His heart was full of shock.
"When I first saw the Ghost Mountain Soul in the deep sea of the Earth Abyss, I felt that he was unfathomable."
"Now it seems that even I can't see through the realm of the Ghost Mountain Soul now."
"Could it be that the Ghost Mountain Soul is the senior that Qiu Shun mentioned?"
Thinking of this, all the mysteries in Lin Fan's heart seemed to be solved in an instant.
At this moment, the Ghost Mountain Soul that fell from the sky also noticed Lin Fan's existence.
A surprised voice soon came from a distance.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, we meet again."
"Lin Fan meets the senior. I didn't know your identity last time. If I offended you, please forgive me."
Lin Fan hurriedly clasped his fists and apologized.
The Ghost Mountain Soul smiled faintly: "Fellow Daoist Lin, you and I are old friends, why are you so restrained?"
Lin Fan was overjoyed when he heard this.
With Lan Lan's figure flashing, he immediately came to the side of the Ghost Mountain Soul.
At this moment, the Ghost Mountain Soul's illusory body, like a mountain, suddenly became solid.
Soon, the ghost mountain soul turned into a white-haired old man and appeared in front of Lin Fan.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, who is this fairy?"
The ghost mountain soul swept his eyes over Lan Lan, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Reporting to the senior, this is my dual cultivation partner Lan Lan!" Lin Fan said.
Hearing this, Lan Lan hurriedly saluted the ghost mountain soul: "Lan Lan greets the senior."
"Since you are the dual cultivation partner of Fellow Daoist Lin, there is no need to be polite to me."
The ghost mountain soul waved his hand, signaling Lan Lan to relax.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, the last time I met you, you were still in Kaiyuan Continent. Why are you here now?"
"Senior, have you forgotten that I am a real human race."
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I naturally know that you are a human race. But here is the Fengling Clan that I have cultivated casually for thousands of years."
"This..."
Lin Fan was extremely embarrassed.
He did not expect that the ghost mountain soul and the Fengling Clan had such a connection.
However, when he thought about the fact that he had killed Taoist Huang Bi and Fairy Bi Yao not long ago, his heart collapsed inexplicably.
Perhaps the Ghost Mountain Soul saw through Lin Fan's thoughts and immediately smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, there is no need to be so nervous. The first generation of the Wind Spirit Clan was just a casual act of the old man, and I have a close relationship with him. But after so many years, the Wind Spirit Clan has long had no relationship with me. Only the Qiu family still has a little incense relationship with me, but it is also very thin."
"Thank you for clearing up my doubts!" Lin Fan hurriedly thanked him.
At this moment, Qiu Shun, who noticed the appearance of the Ghost Mountain Soul, turned into a stream of light and appeared in front of the Ghost Mountain Soul.
When he saw Lin Fan and Lan Lan communicating cordially with the Ghost Mountain Soul, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Soon, Qiu Shun pretended to be calm and said, "Qiu Shun greets the senior!"
"Fellow Daoist Qiu, there is no need to be polite."
The Ghost Mountain Soul waved his hand, and a gentle force immediately helped Qiu Shun up.
"Not long ago, I received your call. I wonder why you asked me to come here now? Back then, I promised your Qiu family to protect your Qiu family three times."
"Now, the last jade talisman has been used by you. From now on, the Qiu family and I have nothing to do with each other."
The ghost mountain soul looked calm.
But Qiu Shun felt very uncomfortable when he heard this.
"Senior, I naturally know about this. However, calling you here this time will also be of great benefit to you."
"Oh? I want to know what benefits you are talking about?"
"As far as I know, the senior's soul is damaged. Although he travels around the world, he is looking for his own residual soul. The Ksitigarbha Cave is only opened once every 30,000 years. I guess that the whereabouts of the senior's residual soul may be in the Ksitigarbha Cave. So..."
"So, you are so blatantly deceiving me?"
The ghost-carrying mountain soul suddenly looked cold.
His cold voice scared Qiu Shun's expression.
"Senior, calm down!"
"Humph!"
The ghost-carrying mountain soul snorted coldly and ignored Qiu Shun.
Seeing this, Qiu Shun secretly gave Lin Fan a look.
Although Lin Fan understood, he didn't dare to speak easily when he saw the ghost-carrying mountain soul so angry.
But Qiu Shun secretly put pressure on him, which forced Lin Fan to compromise.
"Senior, may I ask what the origin of the Ksitigarbha Cave is? Why do even the Mahayana cultivators flock to it?" Lin Fan said respectfully.
The Ghost Mountain Soul looked at Lin Fan in surprise.
Soon, he smiled gently and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Lin wants to know, I can explain it. The Ksitigarbha Cave was originally the residence of a famous ghost fairy in the True Immortal Realm. When the True Immortal Realm broke out in a war, the ghost fairy fell, and his residence was lost in the gap between the Spirit Realm and the True Immortal Realm. I heard that as long as you enter the Ksitigarbha Cave, you will have the opportunity to return to the True Immortal Realm. In addition, there are many natural treasures, such as the Nutritious and Dazzling God Trees."
"This... I am now in the middle stage of the fusion, and I plan to collect some Yin-Yang Fruits to prepare for a breakthrough to the Mahayana stage. I wonder if you can help me and accompany me to the Ksitigarbha Cave? The conditions are up to you." Lin Fan asked tentatively.
Qiu Shun heard this and looked forward to it.
The Ghost Mountain Soul was silent for a long time before nodding.
"Since Fellow Daoist Lin has this request, I can agree. However, I also have an invitation, and I hope Fellow Daoist Lin can agree."
