The grain, grass and baggage convoys formed a long queue, stretching for more than 300 miles!
A well-equipped cavalry accompanied the escort, and 50,000 ghost soldiers rode tall horses and wore red armor, moving slowly in the long yellow sand. The overwhelming banners read "Ghost Domain" in large blood-red characters.
There are dozens of carriages at the rear of the army, and the people on them are the financial sponsors who have obtained the ghost order in the border town, and will enter the ghost realm with the ghost tribe's grain and grass troops.
Ling Han and Mei Ruyu were sitting in a luxurious carriage, dragged at the back of the team, accompanied by Yunyong and Guijia on horseback.
"Your Highness, the general has an important mission, please take your leave!" A ghost general who commanded an army of 50,000 people greeted Mei Ruyu with a few words and left in a hurry.
"Where are the generals on the left and right? Why weren't they escorting the grain and grass? They actually sent the arrogant Cang Jian to take action in person. Is there something wrong with my father's head? Or has this guy offended those old guys? I want to ask clearly."
General Cang Jian has left, but Mei Ruyu, who is full of questions, still refuses to give up. It seems that the two of them are very familiar with each other in private, and the young and handsome Cang Jian is still a little afraid of Mei Ruyu.
"Okay, everyone will ignore you." Ling Han said with a smile.
"Hmph, wait until we get to the Ghost Realm and settle the accounts with him!" Mei Ruyu rolled her eyes at Ling Han, pursed her lips, and began to practice with her eyes closed.
Winter is approaching, and the ghost domain messengers, as always, hand over the purchased grain and grass supplies to the army sent by the Yin Ghost King, and ask them to escort them back to the ghost domain.
And he himself continued to stay in the border town. He said that he would never leave here in his life and would forever guard the gateway to the outside world in the ghost realm.
The journey was very harmonious. Mei Ruyu did not make things difficult for Ling Han, and Gui Jia was also very quiet. He did not trouble Ling Han because he broke through to the ground, nor was he angry because Ling Han and Mei Ruyu rode in the same carriage.
Ling Han was also happy to do this. As a representative of the Demon Clan, he was sent to the Ghost Realm, so he was naturally treated as an honored guest. He sat in a comfortable carriage with the Ghost Realm Princess and could practice quietly...
There is only one road from the border town to Guimen Pass. If the route deviates even a little bit, you will get lost in the endless desert.
Ling Han was very curious about this. He used his mental power to search around on the way, and suddenly exclaimed: "Except for this road, the surrounding area is surrounded by quicksand!"
There was nothing unusual on the surface of the desert, but Ling Han could clearly sense that there were endless quicksands surging beneath the calm surface.
Whenever someone steps foot on it, they will be swallowed up by the quicksand in a moment...
"That is, apart from this road, there is no other place in the world that leads to the Ghost Realm!" Mei Ruyu explained.
No wonder it is said that it is difficult to find the gate of hell without someone to guide you. There are twists and turns along the way with no trace to follow. If you can't find the correct route, your life will be in danger.
If you want to enter the ghost realm, you not only need to hold the Yingui Order, but also have a guide who is familiar with the route to lead you. Otherwise, you will only be disappointed and unable to move forward.
"Do you know the name of this road?" Mei Ruyu approached Ling Han and asked carefully.
"Is this the rumored Road to Hell?" Ling Han's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.
"Yes, it's called Spring Road! Because it's in the endless yellow sand, it's nicknamed Huangquan Road."
"Legend has it that the road we took was originally a flowing spring. Later, the spring dried up and formed a road. It was at this time that the desert turned into quicksand. It was very magical."
"It seems that the spring water left the valley and seeped into the desert and turned into quicksand!"
"..."
The Guimen Pass is the end of the Spring Road, and it is also the limit where the quicksand ends. After passing the Guimen Pass, it is the sphere of influence of the Ghost Domain, and the desert returns to its normal state.
The journey of several days passed quietly in Ling Han's cultivation, and he could never catch the threshold of the realm. He took a deep breath, opened the curtains, and after several days of hard work, he could finally see the gate of hell in the distance.
The so-called gate of hell opened Ling Han's eyes. It turned out to be a huge castle, located in the desert like cast steel, indestructible!
Just imagine, if the enemy wants to invade the ghost domain, they have to capture this fortress, otherwise they will return in vain.
There is dark sand flowing all around Guimen Pass, leaving no room for a foothold. The Huangquan Road is only a few feet wide, making it difficult to form a strong offensive.
It’s true that one man is in charge and no one can stop him!
The grain and grass and baggage troops in front slowly drove into Guimen Pass, and the chariot and horse troops also slowly approached, and in a blink of an eye they drove under the city wall.
At this time, a group of ghost soldiers blocked the carriages and horses, preventing everyone from entering the pass!
Everyone was not surprised by this, and got out of the car chatting and laughing one after another. They chatted in small groups and waited patiently. The gate of hell was in front of them, and they were only one step away from the ghost realm they dreamed of. They were not in a hurry.
Ling Han jumped off the carriage, looked at the thick city wall and the solid giant gate, and asked: "Is the Guimen Pass built so majesticly to defend against human invasion?"
"No, it's to protect the human race!" Yun Yong explained meaningfully.
Ling Han nodded in understanding.
Looking at the crowded and noisy crowd in front of them, there were more than a hundred people, all of whom were elites from all walks of life in the three empires, who wanted to enter the ghost realm to spend the rest of their lives.
However, there are always some outliers in the crowd. You don't have to think about it to know that they are people who fish in troubled waters and want to take advantage of the loopholes to enter the ghost land. Ling Han saw the two Jianghu people from the border town inn all the way.
Someone in front of me shouted: "Come out, come out, someone is coming from the ghost land..."
Two teams of mighty ghost soldiers wearing armor jogged out and stood in two rows, as if a big shot was coming from behind.
Then Cang Jian strode out, stretched out his hand and waved forward, and dozens of ghost soldiers rushed towards the crowd with a murderous aura.
So the crowd gathered in front of the Ghost Gate automatically divided into two rows and made way for a medium-sized passage.
"Don't squeeze, there is dark sand behind, I almost fell..."
"Why are you panicking? The general is not trying to kill us."
Amid the noisy crowd, Mei Ruyu opened the carriage and slowly stepped out of the carriage. Her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Wow, it's the Saint of the Ghost Clan!"
"it's beautiful!"
"It turns out that the ghost saint is behind us, so the general will naturally clear the way for the saint!"
There are many people in the crowd who often deal with the ghost realm. In addition, they are as beautiful as jade and have an extraordinary appearance, so they can be recognized at a glance.
Among the crowd of onlookers, there were many distinguished people such as Youze realm spiritual masters. Without exception, they were all amazed by the jade-like appearance and stretched their necks to get a few more looks.
Even the ghost soldiers on the city wall stared hard...
But then again, Mei Ruyu does look good and has the best figure.
"We can arrange for the human race to enter the customs!"
The ghost soldiers opened the way, and the general Cang Jian strode towards the back of the crowd. The ghost saint could not be left waiting outside the pass.
Cang Jian walked very neatly, without any sloppiness, and came to Mei Ruyu in full view of everyone.
Bowing slightly, he said in a battle-hardened voice: "Your Highness, please!"
Mei Ruyu didn't even look at him, and proudly stepped forward with her legs. This was a glorious moment unique to the ghost clan saint.
Accustomed to the feeling of being admired by thousands of people, even though there were only a few hundred people here, Mei Ruyu walked in the front, followed closely by the general, followed by Yunyong and Gui Jia.
Ling Han followed calmly at the end. He was not a distinguished guest. Why was no one paying attention to him? Forget it, as long as he could enter the ghost realm.
Suddenly a discordant voice came from the side, "Brother, why is this kid here!"
"You bastard, you owe me two bottles of high-grade elixir!"
Glancing at it, he saw the two wretched brothers, the drunkards in the inn talking about entering the ghost realm. Ling Han ignored them and followed Mei Ruyu silently.
"I'm going to settle the score with him!"
"Brother, if he can be favored by the Princess of Ghost Realm, he must be a bad person!"
"That's right. I'll settle the score with him after I get in."
Their conversation was completely captured by Ling Han's perfect spiritual power, but he just smiled and ignored it, just a little person.
When she was about to enter the gate, Mei Ruyu suddenly turned around and asked: "Cangjian, this princess always feels that there is something unusual today. Is the ghost causing trouble again?"
"That's what the princess said. According to the intelligence, the ghost will make big moves!"
Cang Jian said in a deep voice: "The left and right generals have led the food and grass to take the first step, and we will follow later."
"I see, the three generals came out together, my father really thinks highly of Gui Sha!"
Mei Ruyu glanced at the crowd behind her and said, "Let them enter the customs. We can't let the ghosts delay the human race from joining the ghost realm!"
Cang Jian waved his hand, and a ghost soldier leader received the order and shouted: "Switch and release!"
Ling Han was surprised. Isn't the gate of the ghost gate open? Why is it still open and closed?
At this time, a small door opened next to the ghost gate, just big enough for one person to pass through. Under the command of the ghost soldiers, the human race lined up and entered in an orderly manner.
"Why are they told to go through the small door instead of the main door?" Ling Han asked curiously.
Mei Ruyu turned back and explained to Ling Han: "This is a special passage for the human race. After passing through, the human aura will be washed away and you will become a ghost race member!"
"Is this okay?"
"Of course, why don't you give it a try?" Mei Ruyu looked at Ling Han with a half-smile.
"Forget it, I already have two identities, so don't get involved."
"Giggle, that's not sure."
Ling Han curled his lips and didn't answer. He always felt that his beautiful smile was a bit strange.
"Actually, it's very easy to become a member of the ghost clan. All you need to do is get some Yin Qi."
"Although I won't change much myself, after living in the ghost city for a period of time, I will gradually be affected by the environment, and I will become a ghost tribe member subtly."
"Yin Qi?" Ling Han looked at Meiruyu openly, "Why do I think you are no different from the human race?"
"You can change only when you break through the Heaven Realm, and so do you. Only after you break through the Heaven Realm will your identity as a demon be obvious."
While chatting with Mei Ruyu, under the envious eyes of everyone, Ling Han and others passed through the gate of hell and officially entered the ghost realm.
There is no difference between the area in front of the Pass and the area outside the Pass. Everywhere you look you can see a vast expanse of yellow sand.
The grain and grass troops were winding in front like a long dragon, followed by more troops and horses.
Ling Han could faintly smell the smell of gunpowder smoke, this trip must not be peaceful!
