As the battle progressed, Chen Yile gradually discovered that the black shadow's attack was fierce.

But there didn't seem to be any murderous intent.

It was more like forcing the two men to retreat rather than actually wanting to kill them.

"Wait a minute!" Chen Yile suddenly stopped attacking, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

The black shadow also stopped moving the moment he stopped, as if waiting for Chen Yile's next move.

Chen Yile looked at the shadow calmly and spoke slowly, "You are the ghost girl's father, right? The wealthy businessman who bought this garden and died here."

The shadow trembled slightly, as if responding, but did not speak.

"You don't really want to kill us, right?" Chen Yile continued to ask.

"From now until now, you haven't really taken any action. Are you just trying to get close to us?"

The black shadow remained silent, but Chen Yile had already gotten the answer from its reaction.

"I understand," Chen Yile's voice softened. "You want to leave here and go to reincarnation, right?"

"Now you just want to be free and don't want to be trapped in this place anymore."

"As long as we help you find Lin Qingyao's body and allow her to be liberated, all the trapped ghosts in this mountain garden will be freed."

The air seemed to freeze, and the black shadow floated quietly in the air.

There was no sound for a long time.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise and the door of the house in front of him burst open!

"Thank you very much!" Lin Feihong said loudly.

Then he ran out the door without hesitation, with Chen Yile following closely behind him.

After running out of the house, the two of them ran quickly along the dark path.

The gravel and dry branches under my feet made a "crunching" sound when I stepped on them.

The air was still filled with a foul stench of decay.

They knew that the mission was not yet completed and that the real danger might still lie ahead.

"Hurry, we have to find that dry well!" Lin Feihong shouted as he ran.

There was a hint of anxiety in his voice.

However, before they had run far, a pond suddenly appeared among the woods ahead.

The surface of the pond glowed with a strange black light, and the water was calm.

It was like a black mirror, distorting the moonlight and the surrounding scenery.

"This place..." Chen Yile frowned. He felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this pond.

At this moment, ripples suddenly appeared in the middle of the pond.

Immediately afterwards, a swollen and pale corpse slowly stood up from the water.

His body was covered with swollen blisters and signs of decay, and emitted a disgusting odor.

The corpse's eyes were gray, the eye sockets were sunken, and there was a creepy and weird smile at the corner of his mouth.

Chen Yile's heart trembled, but before he could react.

The ripples in the pond suddenly expanded, and more swollen corpses emerged from the water!

Dozens of rotten corpses stood up one after another, as if controlled by some invisible force!

Their movements were stiff, but they moved towards the two men with firm steps.

"This is bad..." Lin Feihong widened his eyes.

He quickly counted the number of corpses and groaned inwardly.

The eyes of the corpses were empty, yet filled with a cold murderous intent.

They made no sound, the only thing that could be heard.

There was only the "gurgling" sound made by the swollen skin of the corpses rubbing against each other as they moved.

"Brother Lin, be careful!" Chen Yile reminded urgently.

At the same time, he suddenly swung his palm, and the true energy in his body burst out instantly, hitting the nearest rotten corpse in front of him fiercely.

The corpse's body couldn't withstand the blow and instantly fell into pieces!

But soon new corpses stood up from the water, giving the two no chance to breathe.

"These guys are so annoying!" Lin Feihong gritted his teeth.

He swung the sword in his hand quickly, and with a flash of cold light, several more corpses were chopped off.

But that doesn't seem to stop them.

"I have to find a way to leave this place, otherwise I will be dragged to death!" Chen Yile's mind raced.

His eyes quickly swept around, and suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a vague exit on the other side of the pond.

"Feihong, over there!" he shouted, pointing in the direction of the exit.

Lin Feihong took a look and understood his intention.

The two quickly adjusted their positions and began to break out towards the exit.

The zombies sensed the two men's intentions and moved even faster.

Like a tide rushing towards them!

A thick black gas also began to rise from the edge of the pond. It was obvious that these corpses were not ordinary ghosts, but were controlled by a more powerful force.

"Damn it, is it the ghost mother?" Lin Feihong cursed in his heart.

He did not dare to pause for even a moment.

He could feel that behind these corpses, there seemed to be a pair of invisible eyes staring at them coldly.

Chen Yile smashed the rotten corpse in front of him with one palm and whispered, "Hurry, hold on a little longer!"

The two tried their best, killing their way through, and kept approaching the exit of the pond.

Although there were many corpses, both of them were experienced practitioners.

With their extraordinary skills and tacit cooperation, they finally broke through the encirclement of the zombies and rushed to the exit.

However, just as the two were about to step out of the pond, a cold wind suddenly blew from behind.

Accompanied by a shrill scream, the sound seemed to tear through the night sky and pierce the eardrums of the two people.

Lin Feihong and Chen Yile felt the strong malice behind them almost at the same time.

They turned around suddenly and saw a woman shrouded in black mist slowly rising from the center of the pond.

Her long hair spread out like countless poisonous snakes, and her facial features were blurred.

But those eyes, full of resentment, flashed with viciousness.

"It's the ghost mother!" Lin Feihong cursed in a low voice. "Damn it..."

At the same time, he gripped the sword tighter in his hand.

The ghost mother's body slowly floated towards the two of them, and the black mist around her began to condense.

It formed countless distorted faces, which seemed to be screaming in pain.

But no sound came out, only the mouth opening and closing could be seen, which looked extremely strange.

As she approached, the zombies in the pond became more frantic.

As if they were summoned by something, they all rushed towards the two of them.

"Feihong, the power of the Ghost Mother is particularly evident in the rotten corpse. We can't fight her head-on!" Chen Yile said hurriedly.

He quickly analyzed the current situation and realized that a head-on confrontation would only fall into the Ghost Mother's trap.

"What should we do? We don't have time!" Lin Feihong responded anxiously, while swinging his sword at a rotten corpse that was approaching.

However, after being cut into two pieces, the corpse twisted and stuck together again on the ground, becoming even more difficult to deal with.

"We must find her true form!" A hint of determination flashed in Chen Yile's eyes.

"The Ghost Mother's power comes from her true form. She was able to track us here because her true form is nearby."

"Otherwise, she shouldn't have been so badly injured before! As long as we find and destroy her true form, we can completely eliminate her."

When Lin Feihong heard this, he suddenly realized: "Yes! Her real body must be hiding somewhere in the pond!"
