Night fell quickly, and Lin Xiao felt the temperature around her gradually dropping, so she couldn't help but rub her arms.

After rubbing her hands together a couple of times, Lin Xiao suddenly realized, "This cold feeling isn't right?"

With Lin Xiao's current second-tier cultivation level and physical condition, he could stay shirtless for three days and three nights in a place with temperatures of minus forty or fifty degrees Celsius without feeling the slightest bit of cold.

but now……

Lin Xiao looked around and found that the surrounding environment was not covered with frost.

Sikong Xinyou and Nelly shivered and muttered, "So cold..."

The large-bodied Lü Qiao moved closer to the fire.

Lin Xiao straightened up and took a step to the side of the Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon.

"My lord, this chill is aimed at the soul!"

"But our strength has already reached the second tier, doesn't that include the soul's enhancement?"

Lin Xiao had long had some questions about the soul, and now was the perfect time to ask.

The Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon shook its head and said, "My lord, I don't know the specifics for you survivors. Apart from some special creatures without physical bodies, most creatures only undergo soul sublimation and transformation when they reach the fourth level of cultivation."

"And those beings without physical bodies, like the ghosts here, have no flesh, only a spiritual existence. And for these beings who specialize in cultivating the soul, among those of the same level, their pressure on your souls is extremely heavy!"

"Only by reaching the fourth tier and undergoing a soul sublimation and transformation can you be completely unaffected by ghostly creatures of the fourth tier or lower!"

"Of course, the most important thing is to improve your rank."

"As for now..." Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon shook his head.

"Unfortunately, I am not good at mental or soul attacks. This cold feeling is not actually caused by a ghost attack, but by a large number of yin creatures gathering in this area, which has caused environmental changes."

Upon hearing Feng Lei Molong say that he was not good at mental or soul attacks, Lin Xiao frowned.

Lin Xiao had no choice but to look through the description on his ever-changing ring and focus on one of the descriptions.

'Mental Impact: Utilizing the stored mental energy from the Mental Storage Necklace, it can unleash an extremely powerful mental impact.'

"As for the mental shock effect, if I remember correctly, I haven't used it before. However, the mental storage function of the necklace did help me when I was stalling for time with the Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon!"

"The Spirit Storage Necklace is now full again, 30 points of spiritual power. It's a pity I can't use it on my talent..."

Looking at so much spiritual energy, Lin Xiao felt a pang of regret.

If possible, Lin Xiao could also raise his physical strength and mental strength to 30 points, but he would only need to consume 100 spirit pills.

Even with the added benefit of second-tier digestive ability, Lin Xiao said he was almost developing anorexia after consuming so many elixirs in one go.

Item Name: Elixir +30

[Description: Tier 3. Possesses sufficient nutritional value. After consumption, it keeps the user feeling full for 10 hours; the feeling of fullness does not accumulate with multiple uses. It restores 1500 points of stamina and mental energy in one use.]

'Continuous Recovery: Recovers an additional 150 points of stamina and mental energy per minute for 10 minutes.'

Projection consumes 20 stamina points.

Lin Xiao is increasingly feeling the need to find a replacement for the elixir, at least to increase the recovery value.

The current recovery value of the elixir is actually quite insufficient.

The value restored in one go is rather low, and the continuous recovery speed is also slow. If an emergency occurs, there will be no time to recover.

Just like when the Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon suddenly attacked before, if you take the elixir when time is about to run out, there won't be enough time to project the Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon.

In fact, Lin Xiao could take a pill anytime, anywhere when he had nothing to do, but that thing wasn't something delicious, so why would he take it when he had nothing to do?

Shaking his head, Lin Xiao came back to his senses. Feeling the cold sensation, he focused his mind on the Ever-Changing Ring.

"Mental shock, let's inject 1000 points of mental energy first!"

As Lin Xiao murmured, 1000 points of mental energy were separated from the 30-point storage and injected into the Ever-Changing Ring.

"boom!"

An invisible wave emanated from Lin Xiao, spreading outwards like a tidal wave.

"Huh?" The Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon exclaimed in surprise. Even he hadn't expected that his master, Lin Xiao, would possess mental attack capabilities.

Lin Xiao's mental attack felt to Sikong Xinyou and the others like a warm breeze dispelling the chill in their bodies, but only for a few seconds before the chill returned.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiao, through the stimulation of the mental impact, also "saw" the ghost's soul.

"Hiss!" Lin Xiao gasped.

As Lin Xiao observed, countless ghosts were crammed onto the 20-story rooftop.

According to Lin Xiao's preliminary estimate, the number of ghosts is no less than 400.

At least 400 ghosts were huddled together on the rooftop, close to Lin Xiao and his companions. It would be strange if they didn't feel the cold.

Lin Xiao's mental attack only triggered a pushing force, like a coin pusher, which pushed several ghosts outside down, but they were quickly replaced by other ghosts from the sky.

Not only that, but the ground of the building where Lin Xiao and the others were staying was covered with countless ghosts. The more than 400 ghosts mentioned earlier were only the number on the rooftop.

"Good heavens, so many ghosts, what if they came at us at night..." Lin Xiao's lips twitched at the thought of that scene.

"It seems that the barriers set up by Sikong Xinyou have had no effect at all."

It was still daytime, which is why these ghosts appeared harmless, clinging tightly to their bodies.

Lin Xiao checked the time and realized that night would arrive in half an hour.

"Little Dragon, did you really not sense the ghost's presence?" Lin Xiao asked the Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon again to confirm.

This time, the Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon closed its eyes and sensed again. A minute later, the Wind and Thunder Demon Dragon opened its eyes again, looked at Lin Xiao, and shook its head.

"My lord, aside from feeling like I'm being watched, I haven't detected any ghosts!"
