Lin Tian's eyes glinted when he saw the crimson shadow being sent flying. "It really is a spirit of the dead!"
An Old Drunkard told him about spirits of the dead before he entered the Demon Burial Valley. Spirits of the dead were beings born due to the presence of extreme negative energy. They had no physical form and could reside in corpses. It was very difficult to destroy them with normal means. [Full text to read]
"If that's the case, then this black fog is the Yin Qi that the old man spoke of. With such dense Yin Qi gathered in this underground space, this place is truly worthy of being called the chaotic battlefield of the past. I wonder how many people died here back then."
Lin Tian thought to himself.
The crimson shadow was sent flying and disappeared without a trace after letting out a shriek. Lin Tian did not go after it.
"Lin Tian, was that a spirit of the dead?"
Ji Yu asked.
Lin Tian was surprised. "You know about spirits of the dead?" Lin Tian felt a bit embarrassed as soon as he asked that question. "I forgot that you're a student of Senior Yu Wushuang. That senior should have mentioned it to you before we came to the Demon Burial Valley."
Ji Yu was stunned and stared at Lin Tian.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Tian was puzzled.
Xu Qing said weakly at that moment, "Brother Lin, I know about spirits of the dead as well. Common cultivators know about them."
Lin Tianyi was shocked. He opened his mouth and said, "You know about them? An Old Drunkard told me about them a few days before I entered the Demon Burial Valley. Isn't that something that only Airborne Realm beings know? "
Ji Yu felt exasperated. "I told you to read more books! That's common sense! "
Lin Tian was speechless.
Lin Tian suddenly felt like he was blushing.
"But." Ji Yu looked at Lin Tian with a bit of surprise and said, "Common means are ineffective against spirits of the dead. That sword of mine just now was useless. But how did you hurt that spirit of the dead? That spirit of the dead screamed in agony. It seemed like you hurt it badly, and it chose to run away."
"Yeah!"
Xu Qing also stared at Lin Tian in astonishment.
Lin Tian smiled, "I have a special method to deal with Yin spirits."
Lin Tian didn't explain in detail, and Ji Yu and Xu Qing didn't ask either. They just looked at Lin Tian in surprise from time to time. At this moment, Lin Tian's eyes flickered with a faint light. He thought to himself that the old drunkard was right. The white lotus in his sea of consciousness really did have a clear offensive ability against things like Yin Spirits. It was simply the nemesis of Yin Spirits.
He paused for a moment and scanned the surroundings with his Divine Sense. After a while, he said, "Liu Jie's aura is here. Let's go this way."
…
The ground collapsed as pitch-black Yin energy rushed out from the underground space and floated in the air. Soon, it gradually faded.
In the underground space, many people looked down in a daze.
"There's actually such a strange place. It seems very unusual!"
"Indeed! I've read in some ancient books that places like this that are filled with Yin Qi often contain precious treasures! "
"Let's go down and take a look!"
Many people whispered to each other.
Soon, some people's eyes lit up and they directly jumped into the underground space.
Everyone who entered the Demon Burial Valley came to look for opportunities and treasures. Now that they were faced with such a place that could possibly contain precious treasures and opportunities, many people jumped down without hesitation despite the dangers.
In the distance, Guo Xiuming stared at the underground space.
"Lin Tian, you can't escape from me!"
Guo Xiuming said coldly and jumped down.
Not long after, the thick Yin energy in this place attracted many people. Among them, there were many rogue cultivators, and there were also people from the four great sects. When they saw the underground space, they were all moved. Soon, cultivators jumped down one after another. Obviously, they all wanted to find some treasures in the underground space.
…
In the underground space, the Yin Qi became much fainter.
Lin Tian and the other two walked along a fork in the road, carefully walking forward.
The fork was very wide and the air was very humid. There were potholes under their feet. Obviously, these forks weren't man-made. They were naturally formed.
"Could it be that the Yin Qi corroded the soil?"
Lin Tian thought to himself.
Thinking about it, it was very likely. After all, there were even Yin Spirits in this underground space.
At this moment, the smell of blood wafted in the air.
Lin Tian looked forward. At this moment, because the Yin Qi in the underground space became much fainter, his vision became much clearer. He saw several corpses lying on the ground in front of him. They were all skin and bones. Their flesh and blood seemed to have been sucked by some kind of demonic beast. It was a horrifying sight.
"Yin Qi!"
Lin Tian's eyes narrowed slightly. Beside these corpses, he could feel an extremely dense Yin Qi, which was much denser than anywhere else. It was as if there was an amalgamation of Yin Qi that had been here for a long time. After a pause, he asked Ji Yu and Xu Qing to be careful and continued to walk forward. Not long after, a few more corpses appeared on the ground. They were all skin and bones. However, unlike before, these corpses had obvious sword wounds. It seemed that they were first killed by a sword and then their flesh and blood essence were sucked away.
The three of them frowned slightly. After shaking their heads, they continued to walk forward.
"Ta ba!"
"Ta ba!"
"Ta ba!"
Walking in the fork, the sound of their footsteps could be heard from time to time.
Not long after, the three of them walked very far. At this moment, they saw Liu Jie at a corner.
"Junior Sister Xu, Little Junior Sister, Lin Tian."
Liu Jie walked over quickly.
"Senior Sister!"
Xu Qing shouted happily and went forward to greet her.
At this moment, Lin Tianyi pulled Xu Qing back. At the same time, he slashed out a ray of sword Qi and landed at Liu Jie's feet.
"Senior Brother Lin, what are you doing?"
Xu Qing was shocked.
Liu Jie seemed to be frightened. A slightly aggrieved expression appeared on her face.
Ji Yu pulled Xu Qing and pointed at the sword in Liu Jie's hand. It was full of blood.
Xu Qing was shocked. "Senior Sister, what are you …"
"A few people wanted to molest me. I injured them. This blood is theirs."
Liu Jie said.
As she spoke, Liu Jie walked towards the three of them.
With a clang, Lin Tian raised his hand and pointed his sword forward. "Don't try to hide from my senses. You can't hide your dense Yin Qi." As he spoke, his glabella lit up. Lotus petals flew out and instantly condensed into a three-inch short sword. Without hesitation, he slashed forward.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yu and Xu Qing were shocked. A white lotus floated out of his glabella. What kind of martial technique was this? They had never seen it before. However, immediately after, seeing Lin Tian condensing a short sword and slashing towards Liu Jie, Xu Qing's expression changed. "Senior Brother Lin, you can't." Although she was already suspicious of Liu Jie, Xu Qing was still very worried.
"Don't worry. I can accurately kill the thing in her body."
Lin Tianleng said coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the three-inch lotus sword moved even faster and pierced into Liu Jie's body.
Suddenly, an ear-piercing scream came from Liu Jie's body. Then, a black shadow floated out of Liu Jie's body. Its eyes were blood-red, and it stared ferociously at Lin Tian. The black shadow was surrounded by an astonishing amount of Yin Qi. As soon as it appeared, it gave people an extremely cold feeling. The temperature of the fork seemed to drop by dozens of degrees in an instant.
Xu Qing's expression changed. "This is?!"
Lin Tianleng smiled. The three-inch lotus sword rushed out of Liu Jie's body and slashed straight at the black shadow. After ten days of personal training by An Old Drunkard, not only did he cultivate the Nine Styles of the Burning Sun to the fifth style, he was also more familiar with the control of the white lotus in his sea of consciousness. Now, he could already control the lotus sword to enter a person's body without harming their sea of consciousness and cranial nerves.
"Clang!"
The lotus sword slashed, shining brightly.
The black shadow seemed to be very afraid of the lotus sword. It roared at Lin Tian and disappeared in a flash.
Seeing the black shadow disappear, Lin Tian put away the white lotus sword and moved to Liu Jie's side. At this time, Liu Jie had already fainted. Her face was very pale, and some black qi could be faintly seen hidden under the surface of her skin.
"Senior Sister!"
Xu Qing hurriedly rushed over.
Ji Yu looked at Liu Jie and said worriedly, "Lin Tian, this black qi is …"
"It's the Yin Qi left behind by the black shadow. It's okay, just use vital essence to force it out."
Lin Tiandao.
He injected vital essence into Liu Jie's body and began to expel the Yin Qi in Liu Jie's body.
Gradually, the black qi under Liu Jie's skin became lighter and lighter.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yu and Xu Qing both felt relieved.
"Lin Tian, that thing just now, could it be …"
Ji Yu frowned.
Lin Tian nodded. "To be able to reside in a living person's body and control and control it, it should be a malicious spirit." A malicious spirit was somewhat terrifying, and it was difficult to deal with it with ordinary means. However, a malicious spirit was even more terrifying than a malicious spirit. It could be said to be an existence of a higher level than a malicious spirit. Not only did it have some spiritual intelligence, but it could also control ordinary malicious spirits.
"A malicious spirit? That's something comparable to the Airborne Realm! " Xu Qing was shocked. She stared at Lin Tian with an even more surprised expression. "Senior Brother Lin, what kind of martial arts technique did you use just now? You can actually force the malicious spirit out of Senior Sister Liu Jie's body directly. Moreover, that malicious spirit seems to be very afraid of you. This, this, ordinary Airborne Realm powerhouses can't do this! "
Not only Xu Qing, but Ji Yu also stared at Lin Tian at this moment.
First, he scared away the malicious spirit, and now, he could even injure the malicious spirit. This really made the two girls a little shocked.
At this moment, a dry cough sounded, and Liu Jie woke up.
Ji Yu and Xu Qing originally wanted to ask how Lin Tian could hurt the malicious spirit and the malicious spirit, but when they saw that Liu Jie had woken up, they all surrounded her.
"Senior Sister, are you okay?"
Xu Qing asked.
Liu Jie was a little weak. She rubbed her head and said, "I'm fine. Where is this, what happened to me?"
Seeing that Liu Jie was fine, the three of them were relieved. As for Liu Jie's question, the three of them casually dealt with it. Walking along this fork, they saw a few people who died under the sword. They should be killed after Liu Jie was manipulated by the malicious spirit. The three of them naturally wouldn't say such things.
After Liu Jie was fine, the group didn't leave. Instead, they continued to walk deeper. After all, it was such an underground space. The few of them could guess that this place was unusual. It should contain something extraordinary, and they wanted to try their luck.
"Ah!"
Not long after, the front became a little empty, and screams were heard.
Lin Tian and the other three came here and saw a place that looked like a karst cave in front of them. There were dozens of cultivators in it. At this time, a few malicious spirits jumped among the dozens of people, and cultivators were killed from time to time. But even so, no one here wanted to escape. All of them were rushing into the depths of this karst cave.
Lin Tian looked up and saw that in the deepest part of the karst cave, a five-foot-tall green tree swayed, and a little bit of pure white light swayed.
"The Tree of Life?!"
Lin Tian's expression changed immediately.
PS: The second chapter is around 8 pm. Recently, I have a bad cold, a headache, and a runny nose. It's a little annoying to write. Also, in the past few days, the update time has been unstable. It's about 4 pm and 8 pm every day. I hope everyone can forgive me. This weekend at the latest, the dragon will adjust the update time to the same as before.
