I'm in the world of Xianjian

Chapter 248 Shadow Branch

Lin Shen and his group walked for an unknown amount of time, but they still couldn't find the Impermanence Hall. As they walked, everyone felt a little tired. Li Xiaoyao said, "Let's rest...rest for a while. We're so tired."

Anu even sat down on the ground, not caring whether another ghost would appear around and scare her half to death.

Lin Shen complained, "Yeah, I was so busy asking for directions that I forgot to ask how far it was. The last time I went to Ghost Sword Pond, it was the same. I ran in the air for a long time before I remembered. It's the same mistake again this time."

Everyone was speechless. Lin Shen thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. Let's ride the dragon the rest of the way.

But before that, let's take a break. We've been walking for so long and must be very tired.

So several people sat down to rest, and Zhao Linger also took out some dry food and water.

Just as they were about to distribute the money to everyone, a bunch of ghosts suddenly appeared, with their arms raised and sleeves hanging down. They were all disheveled and said to Lin Shen and the others, "Give me some... give me some..."

The low and hoarse voice, coupled with the fact that they were in the ghost world, gave Lin Shen and the other six people goosebumps.

Lin Shen looked around and said, "Oh my god, we've run into some starving ghosts."

Lin Yueru drew her sword, but found that there were hundreds of ghosts coming this time. There were many people, oh no, there were many ghosts.

Jiang Wan'er said, "Anos, what should we do?"

Lin Shen was not actually afraid of these ghosts, but there were too many of them. If a fight broke out, he could escape unscathed, but he had five entourage members with him.

At this time, those starving ghosts were approaching Lin Shen and his companions step by step. When Lin Shen saw them, he immediately shouted, "Get out of here!" and showed his domineering pressure.

Seeing this, the ghosts all stepped back, but none of them left.

Lin Shen understood that if he didn't leave something for them, they would not let him leave.

Lin Shen looked at Zhao Linger and shook his head at those starving ghosts. Zhao Linger immediately understood what he meant.

So Zhao Linger gave half of the dry food she carried with her to the starving ghosts, and the starving ghosts began to scramble for the dry food thrown by Zhao Linger.

Lin Shen immediately summoned two white dragons, and the six people rode on the white dragons and ran away.

Lin Shen, Zhao Linger, and Lin Yueru rode one, and Li Xiaoyao, Anu, and Jiang Waner rode the other.

In the sky, two white dragons flew towards the west. When everyone saw that the starving ghosts did not catch up with them, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Anu said, "Oh my god, I'm so scared. What's going on?"

Lin Shen looked ahead and said, "Those are starving ghosts who are eyeing the dry food on Ling'er."

Although everyone felt very hungry, they were afraid that taking out the food would attract another group of starving ghosts, so Zhao Linger put the food away, and everyone could only endure the "gurgling" sound of their stomachs.

Lin Shen took a look and bought five bags of sugar water through the system. He gave one bag to each of Li Xiaoyao and the other three, and said, "You five, take this for now."

Anu took the water bag and said, "Can this water satisfy your hunger?"

Jiang Wan'er took the water bag and said, "Just drink enough water." After saying that, she tilted her head back and took a sip. When she drank it into her mouth, she found that the water in the bag was particularly sweet.

Jiang Wan'er swallowed the water in her mouth and asked, "Anos, what's in your bag? Why is it so sweet?"

Lin Yueru and Zhao Linger immediately understood that the bag should contain sugar water.

Before Lin Shen could say anything, Lin Yueru quickly interrupted, "Anos's bag should contain sugar water. He once said that the fastest way to restore physical strength is sugar water."

Lin Shen rolled his eyes at Lin Yueru and said, "You're quite quick to speak. Indeed, last time in Wuyou Village, I used this method to help Ling'er and Yueru recover their strength."

Li Xiaoyao and the other three tilted their heads back and drank the sugar water in the bag in one gulp.

At this time, Lin Shen noticed a large courtyard in front of him. On the plaque at the gate were written the words "Wu Chang Hall". Lin Shen shouted, "Guys, we have arrived at Wu Chang Hall."

After the two white dragons landed, Lin Shen snapped his fingers and the white dragons quickly disappeared.

Lin Shen looked towards the Impermanence Hall. It was a large courtyard, but in the middle of it lay a river, its water red as blood. A bridge made of bones connected the two banks.

Anu said, "This place is really, really eerie."

Lin Shen sighed and said, "There's nothing I can do. The ghost world is just like this. To be honest, if it weren't for Yiyingzhi, I wouldn't want to come a second time."

A few people crossed the bone bridge to the other side, passed through the courtyard gate, and found houses one after another. But in the center of the courtyard was a magic circle, and two ghosts were guarding the outer circle. Inside the magic circle were purple dead branches one after another.

Zhao Linger pointed at the pile of branches and said, "Brother Anos, are those... the shadow branches we are looking for?"

Lin Shen looked over and said, "Yes, those are the things."

Li Xiaoyao said, "But, there are guards here. How can I get it?"

Anu laughed and said, "That's not easy to deal with. It depends on me." After that, Anu ate a hidden poison and his figure slowly disappeared.

Then Anu quietly came to the periphery of the magic circle, and the two guards didn't notice Anu's presence at all.

Anu walked into the magic circle, picked up six shadow branches, and then quietly slipped away.

Lin Shen was afraid of accidents, so he used his observation skills to sense Anu's movements, and would immediately rob her if he noticed anything.

Li Xiaoyao and his companions had no idea where Anu was, but they heard someone say, "We got it."

Everyone recognized Anu's voice and said, "Anu, where are you? We can't see you."

Lin Shen said, "She's right in front of us. She's just temporarily invisible because she ate the invisibility poison. It will wear off soon. Let's get out first."

So a few people sneaked out of the Wuchang Hall, and after a while, Anu's figure gradually appeared.

Anu took out six purple branches and said, "Look, I got the Shadow Branches."

Lin Yueru picked up one, examined it for a moment, and said, "This...is this the Yiying branch?"

Lin Shen also took one, looked at it for a while, and said, "Yes, this is it."

Li Xiaoyao said, "Now that we have the Shadow Branch, where should we go next?"

Anu quickly interrupted and said, "Let's go back to the human world. This place gives me goosebumps after staying there for a while."

Zhao Linger said, "Didn't we just agree to go and see Senior Han Lingsha?"

At this time, everyone also remembered what they had said before about visiting Han Lingsha. Lin Yueru said, "Okay, let's go visit Senior Han Lingsha."

Lin Shen looked peculiar, thinking: If Han Lingsha knew her grave had been dug up by the remnants of the Qionghua clan, she'd be so angry she'd turn into a corpse. But she felt quite pitiful, so he decided to go check on her.

Lin Shen snapped his fingers, a magic circle appeared, and two white dragons flew out from it.

Lin Shen said, "Let's ride the dragon over there. It's quite far after all."

So the six people rode on two white dragons and flew towards the Ghost Sword Pool.
