"His dantian has been torn open, and his Golden Core has been dug out. There are scratches on the corpse. Could it be the work of a Soul Eating Beast? "Lin Yi raised his vigilance to the highest level after a careful examination.
Not only did Soul Eating Beasts like to absorb spiritual energy from spirit jades, but the Golden Cores and Nascent Souls of human cultivators were also great nourishment for them. Therefore, Lin Yi had reason to suspect that this Soaring Sect Elder had been killed by a Soul Eating Beast.
It seemed that it wasn't that the Soul Eating Beast didn't chase after Lin Yi, but that it couldn't find Lin Yi at the moment. As for this unlucky fellow, he was obviously just a snack for the Soul Eating Beast.
Lin Yi looked around and made sure that the Soul Eating Beast had left. Then, he waved his hand and created a hole in the tunnel. He moved the Soaring Sect Elder inside and buried him with rubble. After all, he was from an allied sect, so it was only right for him to restrain himself a little.
After doing this, Lin Yi spread out his divine sense and continued to move quickly. He finally found someone. Although it was a dead person, it at least meant that there should be traces of humans in this area. Perhaps he could find someone else soon. He just hoped that it wouldn't be another corpse.
After a while, Lin Yi found one of the Ten Youngsters, and it was a familiar face — Bing Wuqing!
Apart from Bing Wuqing, there were also two Soul Eating Beasts. They were surrounding Bing Wuqing and launching a series of attacks. If it wasn't for Bing Wuqing's strengthened Merciless Ice Force, which could effectively reduce the speed of the two Soul Eating Beasts' movements and attacks, Lin Yi might have seen Bing Wuqing's corpse.
When Lin Yi saw this, he naturally joined the battle without another word. This time, he had enough time. Lin Yi immediately used the Soul Hooking Palm in an attempt to kill at least one Soul Eating Beast at the beginning. However, when the Soul Hooking Palm approached the target, it was suddenly blocked by a layer of transparent light that appeared around the Soul Eating Beast's body.
"What?! Does this Spirit Eating Beast also have a Divine Controlling Bracelet?!" Lin Yi was shocked. Three days ago, the Knowledge Whirlpool had been able to cause great damage to the Spirit Eating Beast, so there was no reason that even the Soul Hooking Hand could not cause any damage after three days!
When Bing Wuqing saw Lin Yi's arrival, her eyes immediately lit up, and a look of pleasant surprise appeared on her cold face. The Ice Soul Sword emitted a dazzling light, and after forcing back a Soul Eating Beast, she finally found the time to call out, "Boss Lin Yi!"
Lin Yi nodded in agreement. He then reminded, "Be careful, don't let them escape."
The Spirit Eating Beasts' ability to escape was definitely top-notch, especially after combining their Earth Escape and Concealment. Lin Yi's Divine Sense was unable to detect any traces of them, unless they launched an attack. Bing Wuqing's Heartless Ice Force could cover a relatively large area, and these two Spirit Eating Beasts had nowhere to hide.
Since the Soul Hooking Palm was ineffective, Lin Yi simply released the Knowledge Whirlpool again. He wanted to see if it was because his Divine Sense attacks were ineffective, or if the Soul Hooking Palm was ineffective against the Spirit Eating Beasts. The results proved that the Knowledge Whirlpool that was effective before had lost its original power, and all of its attacks had been blocked by that layer of light.
However, after Lin Yi's continuous attacks, the Spirit Eating Beast that was being attacked also revealed a human-like expression of panic. It screeched twice, turned around, and ran away with the other Spirit Eating Beast. Although Lin Yi wanted to stop them, his Divine Sense attacks were ineffective, so he really couldn't do anything about it.
In the blink of an eye, the two Spirit Eating Beasts disappeared without a trace. Lin Yi suddenly had some guesses in his heart. Those two Spirit Eating Beasts were able to resist Divine Sense attacks, so it was very likely that they really had a tool similar to the Divine Manipulation Bracelet. However, the strength of Lin Yi's Primordial Spirit far surpassed those two Spirit Eating Beasts by more than a level. Even the Divine Manipulation Bracelet couldn't resist the Divine Sense attacks of such a difference, unless the Spirit Eating Beasts had a tool of a higher level than the Divine Manipulation Bracelet. However, the number of times that the Divine Manipulation Bracelet could resist was probably not many, or else these two Spirit Eating Beasts would not have fled.
"Boss Lin Yi, thank you for coming over this time. Otherwise, I would have been in danger!" Bing Wuqing put away her Ice Soul Sword and ran over to meet up with Lin Yi. At the same time, she wiped the cold sweat off her forehead, and an expression of lingering fear appeared on her face.
It was already quite rare for Bing Wuqing's expression to fluctuate. Lin Yi smiled and said, "It's also fortunate that you encountered these two Spirit Eating Beasts. If it had been someone else, even if they were stronger than you, it would have been very difficult for them to escape unscathed.
"Spirit Eating Beasts! Boss Lin Yi … Are you saying that those two are Spirit Eating Beasts?" Bing Wuqing looked a little incredulous. It was obvious that she had heard of the Spirit Eating Beasts before.
"If you've heard of them, then why didn't you recognize them?" Lin Yi asked casually. His mind was still on guard against the possibility that the Spirit Eating Beasts might return and launch a sneak attack.
"I've indeed heard of them, but I've never seen them before. So, this is what Spirit Eating Beasts look like," Bing Wuqing said with a nod. Seeing that Lin Yi looked a little distracted, she did not continue the topic. Instead, she asked, "Boss Lin Yi, how many spirit jades have you mined? This is a rich vein, why don't we mine here together? We only have a little more than six days left. If we continue to look for other rich veins, we might not make it in time."
Lin Yi used his divine sense to observe. The rich vein where Bing Wuqing was at actually did not have many reserves. It was about the same as the one at the Yin Yun Sect, or perhaps even less.
Bing Wuqing had mined for three days, and estimated that she had already mined more than two thousand spirit jades. Her harvest was not bad, but of course, it was impossible for Lin Yi to mine the spirit jades with her.
"The place you've teleported to is not bad. Looks like the Qiankun Sect still values your Snow Sword Sect!" Lin Yi said with a chuckle. The Snow Sword Sect was a sect under the Qiankun Sect. Lin Yi already knew that, but he was just joking.
Among the original ten minor sects, the Yin Yun Sect, Snow Sword Sect, and Okuda Clan were under the Qiankun Sect, while the Everyday and Everyday Sect, Evil Warding Sect, and the Heaven and Earth Sect were under the Five Elements Sect. The Leaf Spirit Sect and the Xuanyu Sect were under the Heaven Awakening Sect, and the Shangguan Clan was under the Soaring Sky Sect and the Blue Cloud Sect. Every time there was a spiritual jade mining, it was basically the Qiankun Sect and the Five Elements Sect that benefited from it. Almost all the others would be teleported to poor or even useless veins.
Bing Wuqing curled her lips and said, "Boss Lin Yi, you know that the relationship between the Snow Sword Sect and the Qiankun Sect has faded a long time ago. Whenever you want us to switch sides, you can just say the word!"
