Chapter 390: The Ghost King Appears

"Qin Xuan, there's no need to waste time like this."

Just then, Han Ye suddenly spoke to him.

"Quickly try those Medicinal Pills. The moon is almost at its zenith; don't drag this out."

Hearing this, Qin Xuan looked up at the sky.

The moon had already reached its highest point in the mid-sky.

"Understood. Then let's try with the Medicinal Pills."

Qin Xuan nodded, then controlled the paper figure to open the porcelain bottle.

The paper figure then hid in a corner, quietly observing the situation.

As the Medicinal Pill bottle was opened, many Yin Souls rushed over.

These Yin Souls were not strong. They all lunged towards the medicine bottle, wanting to get the Medicinal Pills inside.

Just then, several Ghost Generals charged out and continued to rush towards the Medicinal Pill bottle.

Soon, these Ghost Generals started fighting.

However, the Ghost King that Qin Xuan had been anticipating still hadn't appeared.

"That shouldn't be. Why hasn't the Ghost King appeared?"

Qin Xuan was puzzled. In his opinion, the Ghost King should have appeared by now.

Could it be that these Medicinal Pills had no effect?

But the Ghost Generals in front of him were desperately fighting over these Medicinal Pills, which made Qin Xuan somewhat suspicious.

"Rumble!"

Just then, the central burial mound suddenly moved, as if something was about to emerge from within.

"What is it?"

Could it be that the Ghost King was about to come out?

The paper figure stared intently, wanting to see what exactly would emerge.

After a while, a surge of Yin Qi emerged from the burial mound. After only a dozen breaths, this Yin Qi circled in mid-air and drifted towards the Medicinal Pills.

"It's coming!"

Qin Xuan stared intently, his eyes becoming incredibly sharp.

If it was the Ghost King's Divine Soul, then it would mean these Medicinal Pills were indeed useful.

Qin Xuan could entirely rely on these Medicinal Pills to lure out the Ghost King.

A moment later, this mass of Yin Qi quickly condensed in mid-air, forming the appearance of a fierce ghost.

"It seems this is the Ghost King!"

Qin Xuan looked over with some excitement.

If the Ghost King truly appeared, then there would really be a chance.

"It seems that besides this Ghost King, there are no other Ghost Kings here."

Qin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was a bit cautious, being cautious was always good.

"It's a pity. The Medicinal Pills were placed too close to the burial mound this time. If they were further away, I could have made my move."

Qin Xuan shook his head with some regret.

The Yin Soul that had already condensed into the Ghost King's form was continuously approaching the Medicinal Pills. Clearly, the Ghost King was very interested in these Medicinal Pills.

Han Ye, meanwhile, smiled and comforted Qin Xuan.

"No matter. Today's focus was originally to test how deep the waters are here. What if there was more than one Ghost King? Wouldn't that be troublesome? Since there are no other Ghost Kings, we can completely use these Medicinal Pills tomorrow to lure the Ghost King away. Then, seizing the Physical Body will be the same."

"Just be careful. I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel like someone is hiding in the shadows."

Listening to Han Ye's words, a gleam flashed in Qin Xuan's eyes, and he nodded slightly.

Han Lao, without a Physical Body and existing only as a Divine Soul, his perception was naturally incredibly strong.

Qin Xuan certainly wouldn't ignore Han Lao's perception.

"Although it's just a feeling, many things are unclear. These subtle perceptions might also have a reason."

Then, Qin Xuan looked forward, pondering how to prepare next.

Just then, a strange fragrance wafted over, and Qin Xuan frowned.

Why would there suddenly be a fragrance coming from this place?

This was an Ancient Battlefield, a gathering place for Yin Souls where a Ghost King existed. Under normal circumstances, there shouldn't be any strange fragrance emanating from it.

"What's that smell? Why is it so strange?"

As Qin Xuan frowned in thought, Han Ye also noticed the anomaly.

"That shouldn't be. Why are the Yin Souls starting to leave?"

In the Ancient Battlefield at this moment, the Yin Souls that had been surrounding the Medicinal Pills suddenly began to move in another direction.

From their direction of movement, they seemed to be heading towards the source of the fragrance.

"Qin Xuan, quickly see what's going on over there. Why are these Yin Souls suddenly gathering in that direction? This shouldn't be happening!"

Han Ye said to Qin Xuan. Following the direction Han Ye indicated, Qin Xuan immediately used his Eye Technique to look over.

Although it was late and the sky was overcast, Qin Xuan still managed to see the situation over there clearly with his Eye Technique.

"There's a plant growing there, and all the surrounding Yin Souls are now surging towards it."

Qin Xuan said, completely bewildered.

How could a plant appear in such a place with such heavy Yin Qi?

And based on his current judgment, the fragrance permeating the surroundings was currently emanating from this plant.

"This is too outrageous. How can a single plant have such a strong fragrance?"

Qin Xuan was surprised, and Han Ye was also a bit puzzled.

Normally, plants shouldn't grow in this place, but now the situation had completely exceeded his imagination.

"What does that plant look like?"

Han Ye suddenly asked Qin Xuan.

Could Han Lao have guessed what this situation was?

"The plant looks like it's shrouded in black Qi, and there seem to be strange patterns on it..."

Qin Xuan described it, giving a rough description of what he saw.

"No wonder then. That plant is nether grass!"

"Ghost creatures love this stuff the most! Even the Ghost King will probably be attracted away!"

As the black Qi around the nether grass grew larger, the Ghost King stopped and looked to the side hesitantly.

Indeed, the Ghost King was interested in this nether grass.

"This, what should we do? If the Ghost King isn't interested in the Medicinal Pills and goes for the nether grass instead, wouldn't all our efforts be in vain?"

Qin Xuan frowned, looking over with some worry.

However, Han Ye quickly dismissed his concern.

"No, for us, this is also a good thing!"

"Aren't we trying to lure the Ghost King away? Isn't this the result we're getting? Anyway, if we want to lure the Ghost King away, regardless of whether it's with Medicinal Pills or not, as long as the Ghost King leaves this place, can't we go look for the Ghost King's Physical Body?"

"Not only that, although the Ghost King is powerful, it will need at least half an hour to refine this nether grass. Half an hour is completely enough for us to find the Ghost King's Physical Body there!"
