My Xiuxian painting style is not right

Chapter 44: Challenge from the Ghost World

Chen Yu stared at the system interface and laughed foolishly for a while, then turned off the screen and rubbed his eyes.

In addition to a bunch of miscellaneous gadgets, there was also a wrinkled copy of "A Beginner's Guide to Cultivating Immortality" in the cloth bag.

This thing was left by the original owner. Chen Yu flipped through a few pages and found it was full of obscure terms that gave him a headache.

But since I have nothing to do now, I might as well flip through it. Maybe I can find some useful information.

He flipped the page casually, and a page fell out and landed on the ground.

Chen Yu bent down to pick it up and found a strange pattern painted on it, which looked like a formation or an abstract painting.

There is a line of small words below the pattern: "Qian Kun Teleportation Formation, can instantly move thousands of miles away."

Chen Yu's eyes lit up. This thing is great! If I learn it, it will be much more convenient to travel in the future.

He studied the pattern carefully, but could not understand the mystery behind it.

As he was pondering this, the door knocked. Chen Yu stuffed the insert back into the book and stood up to open the door.

Li Xiangjun was standing outside the door, holding a bowl of steaming noodles.

"Master, I made you a bowl of noodles. Eat it while it's hot." Li Xiangjun handed the noodles to Chen Yu with a smile.

Chen Yu took the noodles, smelled a rich aroma, and his stomach suddenly growled.

"Oh, I'm really hungry." He didn't hesitate and ate all the noodles in a few bites.

"Mm, it tastes good! You're really good at cooking!"

Li Xiangjun raised her chin proudly. "Of course, I learned it from the inn's cook."

"Very good, very good. From now on, my meals will be left to you." Chen Yu patted Li Xiangjun's shoulder and said seriously.

Li Xiangjun was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks flushed, she lowered her head and whispered, "Hmm..."

Chen Yu didn't notice Li Xiangjun's abnormality. He was thinking about how to learn the Qiankun Shifting Formation.

He took out the "Introduction to Immortality Cultivation" and studied it carefully again, but still found nothing.

"Oh, this thing is too hard to understand." Chen Yu sighed and threw the book aside.

"Master, what are you looking at?" Li Xiangjun came over curiously.

"A tattered book." Chen Yu said casually.

Li Xiangjun picked up the book, flipped through a few pages, and frowned. "There are so many words in this book that I don't recognize."

"Of course you don't know it. This is a secret book for cultivating immortals." Chen Yu spoke nonsense seriously.

"A secret manual for cultivating immortality?" Li Xiangjun's eyes widened. "Master, do you know how to cultivate immortality?"

"I understand a little, a little." Chen Yu stroked his non-existent beard in a pretentious manner.

Li Xiangjun looked at Chen Yu with admiration. "Master, you are so amazing!"

Chen Yu felt a little embarrassed when Li Xiangjun looked at him. He coughed twice and changed the subject.

"By the way, where are the others?"

"They are still collecting herbs." Li Xiangjun said.

Chen Yu nodded, walked to the window, opened it, looked at the bustling crowd downstairs, and had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

He has been in this world for some time, but still knows nothing about it.

He also didn't know what to do next.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a commotion downstairs. Chen Yu looked down and saw a group of people gathered together, seemingly arguing about something.

"What happened?" Chen Yu asked curiously.

"I don't know." Li Xiangjun also walked to the window and looked down.

The two were watching the excitement when suddenly, a black paper crane flew out from the crowd and flew straight towards Chen Yu's room.

Chen Yu reached out to catch the paper crane and found a line of blood-red words written on it: "Three days later, a decisive battle will take place in the Ghost King Palace!"

The signature is the new ghost king of the ghost world - Yaksha.

Chen Yu looked at the letter of challenge, bewildered. When had he offended the ghost world?

Li Xiangjun also saw the words on the paper crane. Her face changed and she asked worriedly, "Master, what...what should we do?"

Before Chen Yu could answer, there was another knock on the door.

"Come in." Chen Yu said.

Liu Ruyan, Lin Qingxue and Su Daji walked in, each holding some herbs in their hands.

"Chen Yu, we picked some herbs." Liu Ruyan said.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Chen Yu nodded and handed the paper crane in his hand to them.

"Look at this."

After reading the contents on the paper crane, the three women's expressions became serious.

"Ghost King's challenge?" Lin Qingxue frowned.

"A decisive battle in three days?" Liu Ruyan's face turned pale.

"What is going on?" Su Daji looked confused.

Chen Yu shrugged. "I don't know either. When did I offend the ghost world?"

Five women surrounded Chen Yu and expressed their willingness to fight alongside him.

Chen Yu looked at the worried expressions of the five women and a sense of pride rose in his heart.

“Don’t worry,” he took out a bag of spicy strips from a rag bag, chewing and saying, “Isn’t it just the Ghost King?

I'm not afraid of a hammer! "

The spicy smell of spicy strips filled the room, but the five women were not attracted by this sudden snack at all. Their faces were full of worry.

Lin Qingxue walked over to Chen Yu and gently placed her hand on his shoulder: "Chen Yu, the Ghost King is not someone you can easily mess with. Let's take a long-term approach."

Chen Yu chewed the spicy strips and said vaguely, "What are you afraid of? If an enemy comes, we will stop him with our generals; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth.

Besides, don't I still have you guys here?" He said, winking at the five women, trying to liven up the atmosphere.

Liu Ruyan was not amused at all. She walked to the table, picked up the black paper crane and looked at it carefully.

"This paper crane is made of ghost paper from the ghost world, and the words on it are written with the blood of the Ghost King. It seems that this challenge is no small matter."

Su Daji also came over to take a look. She narrowed her eyes and said thoughtfully, "Yaksha... the new Ghost King... I seem to have heard this name somewhere."

Li Xiangjun was bewildered. She scratched her head and asked, "Is the Ghost King very powerful?

Is he more powerful than my master?"

Chen Yu almost choked on the spicy noodles. He coughed a few times and said, "Ahem... Well, it's hard to say. It's hard to say."

He actually had no idea in his heart. After all, he didn't know much about the power system of this world, and he had no idea how powerful the Ghost King was.

At this time, the goddess of hot springs, who had been silent all this time, spoke. Her voice was as clear as spring water, but with a hint of solemnity: "Yaksha is the son of the previous Ghost King. He is ambitious and has always coveted the position of Ghost King.

Now that he has inherited the throne of Ghost King, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to the other realms."

Chen Yu was startled when he heard this. It seemed this Yaksha had come with ill intentions.

He stuffed the remaining spicy strips into his mouth, clapped his hands, and stood up.

"Well, since we can't hide, let's fight! Let's go to the city first to get some information and see what this Yaksha is up to."

The five women also stood up and expressed their agreement.

Chen Yu took the five women out of the inn and headed towards the city.

The town was small and soon reached the end. They continued walking along a winding mountain road.

The mountain road is lined with dense trees, blocking out the sky. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, casting mottled shadows on the ground.

A breeze blew, and the leaves rustled, as if whispering to each other.

As they walked, they came to a small bridge. Under the bridge was a clear stream, the gurgling water made a pleasant sound.

Chen Yu walked to the bridge and leaned over to look at the stream. Suddenly, he found a strange figure reflected in the stream.

He was a tall man wearing a black robe and a black mask on his face, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.

He stood at the other end of the bridge, looking at Chen Yu quietly.

Chen Yu was startled and quickly stood up and turned to look at the other end of the bridge.

The man in black still stood there, motionless, like a statue.

"Who are you?" Chen Yu asked vigilantly.

The man in black did not answer. He slowly raised his right hand and a black sword appeared in his hand.

Seeing this, Chen Yu immediately took out the worn wooden sword from the rag bag and held it in his hand.

"What do you want to do?" Chen Yu asked again.

The man in black still didn't answer. The sword in his hand suddenly made a buzzing sound, and a ball of black flame emerged from the sword.

Chen Yu's heart sank. It seemed the other party had ill intentions. He didn't dare to be careless and quickly injected the spiritual energy in his body into the wooden sword.

The wooden sword also made a humming sound, and a faint golden light appeared on the sword.

The two of them confronted each other like this, and the atmosphere was tense.

Suddenly, the man in black moved. He flashed and instantly appeared in front of Chen Yu, slashing at him with a long sword in his hand, which was blazing with black flames.

Chen Yu quickly raised his sword to block.

"clang!"

With a loud bang, the two swords collided and sparks flew.

Chen Yu was shocked and took a few steps back, his palms numb.

The man in black did not pursue the victory. He retracted his sword and looked at Chen Yu coldly.

"Who are you? Why are you attacking me?" Chen Yu asked.

The man in black finally spoke, his voice hoarse and low: "I am one of the four guardians under the Ghost King, Heisha.

I have been ordered by the Ghost King to take your life."
