Under Professor Xu's instructions, everyone immediately began to retreat.

Qi Sanpang and Fang Zi remembered very clearly that the location of the stone statue of Tiger Boy was at the fork in the road where Qi Sanpang's mark was everywhere. It would only take them three more turns to reach it.

As long as they could return to the 'Tiger Boy' stone statue, they only needed to retreat straight back to the bronze coffin.

After an hour of turning the tables, Fang Zishu and his men finally returned to the first spot marked by Qi Sanpang.

Seeing the familiar symbol, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

As long as they retreated back through the three paths, they would be able to return to the statue of Tiger Boy, and then to the bronze coffin.

However, to Fang Zishu's surprise, they had retreated past three forks in the road and did not see the lifelike statue of 'Tiger Boy'. What appeared in front of them was still a dark and gloomy wood covered in black smoke.

In other words, the stone statue of Tiger Boy was gone.

Fang Zishu's eyes narrowed and he frowned deeply.

”This... Why is there no statue here? I remember that 'Tiger baby' 's stone statue was clearly here, obviously it was here! ” Xiao Hui was anxious because of the dark environment, and his tone was even more uneasy.

”No rush, no rush, everyone.” Professor Xu pushed his black-rimmed glasses up his nose. ”Maybe he made us go the wrong way.”

Qi Sanpang shook his head and said, ”I believe everyone has seen the symbol that I made before, and it is a unique symbol that I have engraved, and it is completely different from the marks that I have engraved afterwards. Since we have found the symbol, then we should have seen 100% of Tiger Boy's stone statue when we stepped back from the three paths, but now we have not even seen the statue at all after we went back three paths!”

”Retreat one or two more paths to see what happens!”

Qi Sanpang snorted and continued to lead the way.

Soon, the two forks in the road came to an end.

However, the sculpture of Tiger Boy still did not appear.

”Isn't this Wall-Hitting Ghost a little too powerful?” the fat man muttered.

Fang Zishu shook his head, saying, ”This is no longer the Wall-Hitting Ghost. I think we should be in some kind of a maze!”

”Isn't it the Wall-Hitting Ghost?”

”At first, I thought it was the Wall-Hitting Ghost, but now it seems that my judgement was wrong. If it really is the Wall of Ghost Fighting, then with my cultivation, coupled with the many magical artifacts I brought along, no matter how powerful the ghost is, after such a long time has passed, I should still be able to find anything abnormal, right?”

”That's right!”
