Thinking of this, Shen Luo stepped into Hall of Heavenly Kings right in front. There was a broken Buddha statue standing in the hall. On the left and right where Four Heavenly Kings was supposed to be guarding, there was only a pile of rubble. The ground was covered with dust, and there were many spider webs hanging on the roof and walls. It looked like it had been abandoned for many years.

He walked around the hall and found nothing unusual, so he turned around and left, entering the bell tower on one side.

Soon, Shen Luo inspected all the buildings in the first courtyard, inside and out, but found nothing unusual, and the ghost did not appear.

He did not stop here and continued walking along the aisle on one side of the square towards the depths of the temple.

A moment later, Shen Luo walked out of the Great Hero Hall, which was still well stored. His expression was as usual, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

He had just explored almost all of the second courtyard, which was the core area of the temple, and found not even a trace of ghost energy, let alone ghosts.

Not only that, there was no trace of fighting anywhere in the temple. If he hadn't heard about Lin and Du Families's guest yesterday in advance, he would have thought that no one had been here at all.

"Could it be that the ghost has noticed Soul-Snatching Horse-Face and has been hiding for a long time? But Horse Face had expected this and would not be exposed so easily." Shen Luo secretly guessed in his heart.

"Forget it, don't think about it so much. I'll do my own thing. As for whether the ghost will appear or not, I'll leave it to fate." He thought to himself, bypassing Great Hero Hall and continued walking towards the depths of the temple. There were still a few final buildings there that had not been explored, which should be places such as the Dharma Hall, the Sutra Hall, and the Zen Room.

A rush of footsteps came from the front, and two yellow-robed monks ran over. One of them was the young monk who opened the door for him, and the other monk was older, looking to be around thirty or forty years old.

"Master Immortal, help!" The two of them were full of panic. When they saw Shen Luo, the young monk shouted and ran over.

"What happened? Why haven't you left yet?" Shen Luo frowned slightly.

"We were planning to leave, but just when we passed the Gray Tower in front of us, we heard the sound of a woman crying inside. One of the monk's brothers suddenly stopped and headed towards the tower. No matter how we called and pulled him, he didn't stop. The ghost you mentioned may be there, senior. I beg the immortal master to surrender the ghost and save my brother." The young monk said, clasping his hands and saluting.

"I beg you, Immortal Master." Another middle-aged monk also bowed and said, looking quite calm.

"Oh, take me to have a look." Shen Luo said in shock upon hearing this.

"Master Immortal, please come with us." Seeing Shen Luo agree, the two monks breathed a sigh of relief and immediately led the way.

The three of them walked forward and soon arrived at the last courtyard. A three-story Gray Tower building appeared in front.

There is nothing surprising about this Gray Tower. The top of the tower has been broken into half, the walls of the tower are peeling off in many places, and the tower body seems to be leaning a little.

Shen Luo stood there and listened, but did not notice the woman crying that the young monk mentioned. Only a Gray Tower stood quietly in the night.

"This is it." The young monk looked at Gray Tower and said.

Shen Luo looked at the tower and stepped forward.

"Master Immortal, we will go with you." Two monks followed.

"Aren't you afraid?" Shen Luo glanced at the two of them.

"Of course I'm afraid, but our senior brother is inside, how can we let Master Immortal be in danger alone?" the young monk said.

"It's up to you." Shen Luo did not stop the two of them and stepped into the tower.

The situation inside the tower is similar to that of the main hall that was explored before. There is dust everywhere. Two smaller Buddha statues are located here. One has been broken and the other has fallen to the ground.

He glanced around a few times, stepped onto the stairs in the tower, and stepped onto the second floor of Gray Tower with a creaking sound.

The situation on the second floor is similar to that on the first floor. There are also two statues here, which are more complete than the statues below and stand upright. Other than that, there is nothing special about them.

The stairs leading to the third floor have collapsed, making it impossible to go up. Even if you can go up, the entire third floor has collapsed a lot, making it impossible to stand.

In fact, there are several big holes in the ground on the second floor. They squeak when you step on them, as if they might collapse at any time.

Shen Luo is thinking about whether to find a way to go up there and have a look.

"Are you looking for me?" An erratic voice suddenly came from behind him.

As soon as the sound reached his ears, Shen Luo's whole body suddenly stiffened, his skin tightened, and all the pores on his body stood up.

He turned around like lightning and raised his hands, subconsciously trying to activate the talisman in his hand, but there was nothing behind him.

Shen Luo couldn't help but be startled when he saw this scene.

But at this moment, two big green and black hands reached out from behind and pressed on his shoulders.

At the same time, his waist tightened, and two big black hands stretched out and hugged him tightly. They were the two monks who were following him.

At some point, the two of them turned into Zombie with a blue and black complexion. They opened their mouths full of yellow mucus and bit at Shen Luo.

He was startled, but not panicked. His expression instantly became stern, and he took a deep breath, followed by an abnormal crackling sound inside his body.

His body suddenly shrank by more than a circle, and then he suddenly jumped upwards, like a slippery fish, and escaped from the two pairs of big hands at once, landing about ten feet away, his face turning pale.

What Shen Luo just performed was a bone shrinking method in Huangting Scripture.

Although he was unable to practice Huangting Scripture in reality, he had practiced this technique to a great level in his dream, and could barely use some simple physical skills.

It's just that his real body has not been tempered by Huangting Scripture, so the burden of using these methods is not small.

Shen Luo raised his eyes and looked at the two Zombie monks who were still dazed. His eyes flashed with a sharp look, and he raised the hand holding Ghost-Howling Ring to give them a shake.

However, at this moment, he felt the sound of wind rushing in his ears, and he did not turn his head in the flash of lightning. Instead, he thought to himself, his feet were bright with white light, and he took a step forward.

His figure suddenly became blurry, and he flew forward more than two feet to the left. He turned around and was startled.

I saw where I was originally standing, a white figure with disheveled hair, with blue-purple skin, bulging white eyes, and a long blood-colored tongue protruding from the mouth, hanging down to the waist and abdomen, looking extremely penetrating.

The arms of this Long-Tongued Ghost creature are bent and stretched forward, and the several-inch-long claws on its ten fingers stretch and contract erratically.

Shen Luo couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If he hadn't reacted quickly enough, he might have pierced two transparent holes in his body.
