Worldwide Simulation Era

The feeling of being watched made Lin Qiye uncomfortable.

He gathered his mental power and began to investigate in the most detailed way possible, trying to find the source that was spying on him.

However, after a round of investigation, he still did not find anything unusual.

"Who is spying on me?"

Lin Qiye furrowed his brows. He had been to this mountain a few times. The last time, he had even saved a middle-aged man who had come to gather firewood.

However, he didn't feel like he was being spied on.

Could it be that a powerful figure had suddenly appeared in the mountains?

Seeing that the young men were still heading deeper into the forest, Lin Qiye considered stopping them immediately to avoid any trouble.

Just as he was about to reveal himself and scare the young men, a strange energy fluctuation immediately caught his attention.

"What?"

Following that feeling, Lin Qiye quickly noticed something hidden in a big tree.

He floated to the tree and focused his mental power on one point to investigate. Only then did he discover that there was a strange small flag.

"A formation flag?"

Lin Qiye was shocked. He could sense a strange energy fluctuation from the small flag, as well as a mysterious connection.

In his previous simulations, he had come into contact with much knowledge regarding formations. Although he had rarely used them, he had never underestimated the power of formations.

"How can there be formation flags in this place? Is there really an expert living in seclusion on this mountain?"

The feeling of being watched came from this small flag. However, not long after Lin Qiye removed the flag, the energy circulating on it quickly dissipated.

That mysterious connection was also cut off.

Lin Qiye's frown deepened. He had no idea what the other party's situation was, and he didn't know if they had ill intentions.

If he stayed, it was hard to guarantee that the other party would not come looking for him.

"I can't let these guys mess around anymore. I have to get them to turn back quickly."

Lin Qiye's figure flashed and appeared in front of the young men. Just as he was about to show himself and drive them away, he suddenly realized that the sky had darkened.

"What's going on? Why is the sky so dark?"

The sun had been high up just a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye, it had become as dark as night.

The young men were so frightened that they lost their heads on the spot.

Lin Qiye's expression also changed slightly.

Another formation? Moreover, the formation this time was a trapping formation.

It seems like the being hiding in this mountain doesn't want to be disturbed.

"This trap formation's level isn't high, but it's enough to be fatal to ordinary people."

The trap formation in front of Lin Qiye did not have any killing power, but if an ordinary person was trapped in it, they would probably starve to death before finding a way out.

Lin Qiye found the formation base after using a little bit of his mental power and casually broke it.

The group of young men was free from the trap.

"Eh? Why is the sky bright again?"

"No, there can't really be ghosts, can there?"

The group huddled together. Many people were quite frightened.

"Hmph! What the hell? It's just fog. Isn't it normal for the mountains to have some miasma?"

The leader, Brother Wang, was also a little scared, but he couldn't show his cowardice for the sake of his pride.

Even if they were to retreat, he would have to wait for the people on the team to suggest it first.

As expected, his words did not make everyone feel at ease.

"B-brother Wang, I want to go back now!"

"I don't want to stay here anymore."

Fear was spreading. If one person wanted to quit, there would be a second and a third.

"What a bunch of cowards! Didn't Brother Wang say that it was merely fog? With him at the front, what are you afraid of?"

Before Brother Wang could say anything, the young man who talked about making the female ghost his wife stood up.

Brother Wang felt bitter. What a motherf*cker! Why is he acting tough now?

Brother Wang was frightened. Things were obviously abnormal just now! Only insane people would not leave after that.

Although he was cursing the young man in his heart, the young man had already put on a show for him. If he backed down now, he would be a joke for the rest of his life.

"Brother Wang!"

Just as Brother Wang was thinking about how to save his pride and retreat, the young men standing opposite him pointed behind in fear.

Brother Wang subconsciously looked back, and his face instantly turned pale. He shivered and fell to the ground.

The young man clamoring also turned around in confusion. When he saw the thing behind him, his face froze, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

"Ghost!"

The group scattered in all directions.

They saw a white figure with disheveled hair passing through the bushes and floating straight toward them.

As the group fled, a dozen similar figures appeared around them.

Some had disheveled hair that covered their faces, while others exposed their bloody and ruined faces. Some of them even had broken bones.

Without a doubt, these were all ghosts!

Amitabha Kasaya...

Some people were so scared that they knelt on the ground, praying madly for their lives.

The rest either went soft in the legs or were forced back by the ghosts.

"There's a ghost... There's really a ghost..."

Brother Wang sat on the ground, paralyzed. He seemed to have lost his mind as he repeated the same sentence.
