Chapter 1561: Chapter 927: It’s Here (Part 4)
That’s right, this is the situation now; no matter which direction he walks, it feels like the other party is blocking him ahead, and the distance is getting closer and closer.
"Closer and closer..."
Yang Xiao furrowed his brow, suddenly thinking of a possibility: could it be that this Source Ghost can’t move on its own, and can only wait for people to approach it?
In other words, it waits for people to come near it and then fall into its trap.
That means he’s currently trapped by this Ghost; this is the Ghost’s lair, and the road beneath his feet isn’t the road he sees with his eyes—the so-called change of direction is just his illusion.
In reality, there’s only one road left under his feet, a straight road, and at the end of it is that Ghost, the Source Ghost!
The more he panics, the faster and more urgent his footsteps become, which will only lead to him walking this road faster, encountering that Ghost sooner, and dying quicker!
Just by thinking about it in his mind, Yang Xiao felt this was very likely, and it matched the information Jiang Qingluan had provided him.
Understanding this, Yang Xiao steadied his mind, closed his eyes, and acted as if the Ghost didn’t exist. As seconds and minutes passed without him moving, the sensation of getting closer to the Ghost indeed weakened substantially.
But the discomfort was that this was only a weakening, not a complete disappearance, and after all this time, the Source Ghost still showed no signs of leaving, which was enough to show his method wasn’t entirely correct.
"Even if I don’t move, this Source Ghost will still slowly approach me, just at a much slower pace." Yang Xiao instinctively judged that this Ghost wasn’t far from him now, and if he remained completely still, in no more than 10 minutes, this Source Ghost would appear before him.
At this moment, Yang Xiao felt a strong sense of suffocation; he couldn’t even tell if this was the Ghost’s ability or the pressure he was currently under.
But one thing was certain: he must quickly find a way to break out of this situation, or he would face defeat without even starting.
The more critical the moment, the more important it is to stay calm. Yang Xiao took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down; he had faced big scenes before, and he wasn’t quite at the brink of despair yet.
This whole thing exuded a sense of eeriness; he tried to look past the current predicament, stepping out and finding a solution from the root.
Firstly, why would the Source Ghost target him, in itself a strange thing, and even if the Source Ghost had its eyes on him, why not come directly to the cave to find him, but instead waited outside?
He didn’t believe that it was his teammates that put pressure on the Source Ghost; in the face of the Ghost, all beings are equal. If it didn’t do so, it only meant that it couldn’t, specifically that its method of killing didn’t allow it to do so.
Suddenly, a bold thought popped into Yang Xiao’s head: could it be that this Source Ghost wasn’t even targeting him?
Following this line of thought, Yang Xiao quickly thought of the Ghost Fog Bottle he had left outside the cave.
"Could it be the Ghost Fog Bottle that attracted this guy here?" Yang Xiao felt increasingly puzzled.
But soon, another piece of information was recalled by him: it was the warning from Elder Ku Wen when they were about to enter the Secret Realm.
Elder Ku Wen had sternly warned them not to pick up any magic artifacts dropped in the Secret Realm, otherwise
