Yellow Springs
"Shinichi, the space here is chaotic. The direction might not be what my eyes see. I need to stop for a while before I can determine the direction."
Due to an accident, Ban Higashi Genko had been to Yellow Springs before. Although she did not go deeper, as a deity, she had left signs for the way.
This was to be prepared in case she ran into trouble in the future. She did not expect to use it today.
However, in order to not be discovered by the local demons and deities, these signs were extremely weak. Only Ban Higashi Genko could sense them. Even so, she needed time.
When they tried to go up, not only did they need to determine the direction, they also needed to be wary of the evil spirits and filth that might pounce on them.
When Ban Higashi Genko focused on finding the way, she needed Pei Zi Yun's protection.
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect you." Pei Zi Yun promised her. He pointed his wooden blade and countless figures rushed over. All of them had thin bodies. Some had broken arms and legs and were bleeding from all seven orifices. It was a terrifying scene.
Although the two of them were working together, Ban Higashi Genko felt safe seeing the man who had spoken so calmly.
Suppressing her complicated feelings, Ban Higashi Genko closed her eyes. A faint golden light flowed out. At the same time, a few spots of light in the distance responded.
In an instant, those spots of light dimmed, and the evil spirits could no longer find them. However, Ban Higashi Genko had memorized the location.
This was something that even the chaotic space could not hide.
"Go that way." When Ban Higashi Genko opened her eyes again, she realized that her surroundings were filled with ghostly flames. Under the dim green light, countless evil spirits' corpses were burning and turning into ashes.
Pei Zi Yun, who had sheathed his blade, looked at where Ban Higashi Genko was pointing and nodded.
He led the way, while Ban Higashi Genko protected the part of Yamada Kazuhiko's soul and followed closely.
Both of them were shrouded in divine light. The weaker evil spirits could not even get close to them, while the stronger ones were quickly killed by Pei Zi Yun.
However, there seemed to be no end to the road ahead. On the dark road, evil spirits could appear at any time. As time passed, Ban Higashi Genko felt that the evil spirits they met were getting stronger.
If at the beginning, Ban Higashi Genko could easily kill the evil spirits, now that she started to meet evil spirits, she had to expend more energy.
This situation was not normal!
The closer one got to the depths of the Yellow Springs, the more filth there was, and the wraiths that could exist in that area were supposed to be stronger wraiths.
Although the Malevolent Spirits they had encountered before were not weak, and most Gods would have to avoid them when they attacked in groups, the higher they went, the more powerful the enemies they encountered. It was obvious that this was man-made.
The mastermind was treating them like a cat playing with a mouse. Sakato Genko could almost feel a pair of eyes filled with malice staring at them, watching them slowly fall into despair and struggle.
"Could it be that the demons are colluding with the ghosts and spirits of Huang Quan?"
"If that wasn't the case, they wouldn't have allowed those monsters to set up such a trap in the Yellow Springs, setting up layers upon layers of ambushes just to make me and Lord Xin Yi feel despair."
"The most important thing here is the godly power. These wraiths are just wasting our godly power. Once we run out of godly power, we'll be defeated."
As Ban Higashi Genko thought of this, her heart sank.
If that was really the case, the further they went, the more dangerous it would be. It would be very difficult to get out successfully.
But as she thought of this, her gaze fell on Yamada Shinichi's side profile. Looking at his calm and expressionless face, her restless heart slowly calmed down.
"You need to rest." Just then, Pei Zi Yun stopped and looked at Ban Higashi Genko who had also stopped. "Your divine light has dimmed. You're beginning to be affected by the filth."
To be able to make a God feel all sorts of negative emotions, this in itself was a sign of being polluted.
Ban Higashi Genko also realized this. Just as she was about to nod, she suddenly looked around.
Just then, there was a scream in the darkness. In the darkness, countless more wraiths appeared. At the same time, filth spread out.
"Rest first." As Pei Zi Yun spoke, he pointed with his wooden blade. With a flash of white light, he drew a circle on the ground. Wherever the circle went, a faint white light rushed out.
"Roar!" Some wraiths couldn't hold it in any longer and pounced forward. But as soon as they touched the circle, the white light shone brightly. The wraiths that got close didn't even have the chance to scream before they were burned into ashes in the air.
"This is an enchantment barrier?" In the air, a monster with shark fins on its back tried to leap over the circle and fly in. In the end, as soon as it got close, it turned into ashes as well.
The arc of the circle even covered the sky.
Even without looking, it must be the same below. This was the power of the enchantment barrier.
"You rest first." Pei Zi Yun said as he channeled energy into the white light.
"Roar!" More than ten wraiths couldn't hold it in any longer and pounced forward. With a "boom", more than ten temporary flames were ignited in the air.
Here, not only were there wraiths trying to break through the enchantment barrier, the filth that was slowly enveloping the area was also constantly eroding the enchantment barrier, trying to penetrate it.
As for the enchantment barrier, it couldn't be stopped or else it would be depleted.
"If this goes on, the two of us will be exhausted sooner or later. When that happens, won't we be surrounded by the wraiths and filth?"
"If we continue to stay like this, we'll just be sitting ducks."
She didn't understand why Pei Zi Yun chose to stop here, but she was also tired. In order not to drag them down, Ban Higashi Genko immediately closed her eyes and seized the time to rest.
After an unknown amount of time, she opened her eyes, stood up and started channeling energy into the enchantment barrier.
"Shin-kun, are you alright?" Seeing Yamada Shinji's pale face, Ban Higashi Genko couldn't help but ask.
Pei Zi Yun replied calmly, "I'm fine."
Seeing that Ban Higashi Genko wanted to say something, he said, "Wait for a while more, I'll bring you out of here. I'll leave this place to you. "
Such confidence made Ban Higashi Genko puzzled.
Outside the enchantment barrier, there were tens of thousands of wraiths gathered. Filth accompanied them, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. It looked like they had the upper hand and were just waiting for the enchantment barrier to break before they charged in.
How could it be easy for them to get past these wraiths and filth and move forward?
However, this wasn't the time to think about this. She tried her best to calm herself down, gritted her teeth and continued channeling energy into the enchantment barrier.
"Shin-kun, rest first. Leave this to me."
"General, are we still not going to attack?" Behind the wraiths, a tall general with long horns stared at them and asked.
The general only shook his head, "Let's wait."
Even though they had delayed for a long time, the general still didn't dare to attack.
Along the way, the ground was littered with ashes from the dead wraiths. No matter how strong Yamada Shinji was, he was even more feared after becoming a god.
Thinking of this, he ordered, "Immediately shout and persuade them to surrender!"
"This is the Yellow Springs, not the land of your gods."
"Quickly surrender and become the god of the Yellow Springs."
The sane ghostly immortals behind started to shout at the barrier. They were basically saying, "So what if you guys are immortals?" This was the Yellow Springs! No matter how strong they were, how long could they last? It was better to surrender now and save their lives!
"What a joke. Do you think I'm a fool?" Ban Higashi Genko didn't waver.
Since Ban Higashi Genko was like this, Pei Zi Yun naturally wouldn't waver.
In fact, what he said to Ban Higashi Genko just now wasn't an exaggeration.
The reason why he looked exhausted was because in his space, a large amount of ashes had turned into grey energy. This grey energy then turned into white energy and entered the shrine. At this point, it was full and was being digested.
Because it was being converted, and it was the power of the Yellow Springs, Pei Zi Yun's expression didn't look right.
"I didn't think that the power of the evil spirits in the Yellow Springs could be absorbed."
Looking at the shrine, it was already lit up, and the lights were bright.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that Ban Higashi Genko was really exhausted. Her divine light was dim, and she looked as pitiful as a candle that was about to be extinguished.
"It's my turn." Pei Zi Yun said.
Ban Higashi Genko heard this and heaved a sigh of relief. She knelt down in exhaustion.
She closed her eyes and panted slightly. Realizing that something was wrong, she opened her eyes and saw that the power of the enchantment barrier was quickly dissipating.
But Pei Zi Yun didn't move.
Ban Higashi Genko didn't know what Yamada Shinji was going to do. She looked at the soul of Yamada Kazuhiko, who was standing there in a daze, and walked closer to protect it.
Ban Higashi Genko didn't ask immediately because of her confidence in Pei Zi Yun.
But Pei Zi Yun's next action also answered Ban Higashi Genko's doubts.
Pei Zi Yun stretched out his hand, and a golden bow appeared in his originally empty hand. The bow's sudden appearance stunned Ban Higashi Genko.
The next moment, Pei Zi Yun did something that shocked her even more.
An arrow that was also golden in color was nocked on the bow. With a swoosh, the arrow was released from the bowstring. In the air, one arrow turned into two, two became four, four became eight, and quickly turned into thousands of arrows. The only difference was that the color of the arrows had turned white, and they emitted a white light.
This white light didn't affect Ban Higashi Genko.
Ban Higashi Genko watched as the arrow turned into thousands of arrows that flew in all directions.
"Puff, puff, puff!"
Every arrow hit an evil spirit. The evil spirit that was shot stopped in its tracks, let out a blood-curdling scream, and turned into a ball of fire.
"Ahhhh!" This was almost a one-sided massacre. The party that was being slaughtered didn't even have time to react when it was over.
Even the Great General behind him couldn't avoid the arrow and was hit by it. He grabbed the arrow with all his might, trying to pull it out, but the white flame was already burning inside him.
When the Great General's screams disappeared, the whole place was empty, and only ashes were left.
Ban Higashi Genko took a deep breath and couldn't help but say, "Shin-kun is indeed powerful!"
Ban Higashi Genko took a deep breath and couldn't help but say.
There were six figures standing alone there. The moment their gazes met, those six figures could not help but tremble.
"There are only a few demons left … It's a pity that they aren't worth much." Pei Zi Yun laughed coldly. The enchantment barrier had already disappeared, and the moment the evil spirit was shot to death, the energy generated had also swept away the filth in the surroundings.
