Lin Yun was still in the air when Ghosts pounced over at him.
The River of Ten Thousand Ghosts was named this way due to the amount of ghosts within, far surpassing any place within Noscent. It could be said that the entire Bone Plane's Ghosts were already focused in the River of Ten Thousand Ghosts. It could be seen from how several hundred Ghosts were surging towards Lin Yun while he was still several hundred meters above the river.
Ghosts were unconventional undead lifeforms, monsters made up of negative emotions and shattered souls. They didn't have real bodies, they didn't have formidable power, and they didn't even have thoughts. They would end up drifting in the same area forever, continuously exuding an aura of death and resentment. Unless it was a special area, places where Ghosts were concentrated would definitely become sinister and full of death, just like the Flame Tyrant's Ghost City.
