Following the destruction of the restrictive inscriptions, the stone door opened inwards and a similarly dense wave of Yin Qi rushed out of the stone room.
Just as the Scorpion was about to enter the room to investigate, there was a "hu" sound and a huge grey fist flashed out of the stone room and fiercely punched towards it.
Before the fist could hit the Scorpion, a formless and powerful force enveloped it.
The Scorpion's expression changed and with a flash of black Qi, it transformed into its original form, the Silver Bone Scorpion. It crossed its huge pincers in front of it and welcomed the attack.
With a "hong" sound, the grey and silver pincers collided in the air.
In the end, the stalemate only lasted for a breath's time before the Silver Bone Scorpion was sent flying back like a sandbag.
Immediately after, a grey ghostly figure came out of the stone door, accompanied by a sky full of Yin Qi.
This ghostly figure was roughly the same size as a human cultivator and was wearing the Jin Guangjun uniform. However, the muscles on its face were stiff and ashen, giving it the appearance of a living zombie. Its cultivation was vaguely at the early stage of the Jin Dan!
Just as the zombie cultivator stepped out of the stone room, its body suddenly stopped and it raised its head to let out a sharp and ear-piercing roar!
"This is the sound of ghosts, someone … someone has snuck in!"
"I was wondering why so many people had suddenly disappeared!"
"Quickly open the restriction and seal off all the passages! Don't even think about leaving! "
With such a large commotion, the ghost soldiers and the Malevolent Ghost Commandant in the vicinity were naturally alarmed. A few long and shrill cries sounded from all directions.
Immediately after, the rumbling sound of millstones moving could be heard, echoing endlessly in the empty belly of the mountain!
"This is Captain Yin … it seems that the others have already …" At this time, Xiaowu's gaze swept across the zombie in front of her and she let out a cry of alarm. Her eyes dimmed as she spoke.
"There's no time to care about the others, let's go!" When Liu Ming heard the commotion coming from above, he flicked his finger and a purple sword Qi shot towards the zombie in front of him.
"Dang!"
The Sword Qi slashed across the zombie's neck, but it was like cutting steel. Sparks flew, but the neck was unscathed!
At this moment, there was a "click" sound. The other nearby stone rooms were opened one after another, and clouds of gray mist came out. They were zombie-like cultivators between the Crystallization Period later stage and the Jin Dan stage!
"Master, take Senior Sister Xiaowu away from here first. I'll hold them off!" Seeing this, Scorpion immediately transmitted his voice to Liu Ming through the mental connection. At the same time, a golden light shone on its forehead, and its figure suddenly transformed into a silver Bone Scorpion about ten meters in size, blocking in front of Liu Ming and Xiaowu.
Several zombie cultivators walked out from the nearby stone chambers. They were intimidated by the golden light in front of them. A trace of fear flashed across their ashen faces. They didn't dare to step forward for a moment.
At the same time, in the layers of passages above them, there was a sound of a stone door opening. Zombie-Like cultivators wearing the uniforms of the 4 major legions with livid faces came out!
"Not good, the passage we came in from has been blocked. Even the exit in front seems to be blocked! Let's retreat first. " Liu Ming quickly scanned the space of the mountain with his Divine Thought and said quickly. He then pulled Xiaowu and flew down the passage. In Wangyu's opinion, the most interesting thing about the treasure of the mobile game "Tales of the Devil's Heavenly Legend" is that after you search it with your "Divine Sense," you will be surprised to find that the treasure is actually in Guangzhou's landmark, "Canton Tower"! At this time, you can immediately summon other friends in the game to occupy Guangzhou's "Canton Tower"! And if you shuttle through major cities, you will slowly find that in the mobile game "Demon Heaven Chronicles", you will dig all over the country. By then, Guangzhou's "Canton Tower", Shanghai's Oriental Pearl Tower, Beijing's Forbidden City will all be dug by you! Isn't it very ingenious to allow players to shuttle between the virtual world and the real world and leave unique cultivation footprints in each city? In addition, a few famous singers in the world of cover songs have also come to support the mobile game "Demon Heaven Chronicles". Wangyu was already listening to it first. The first songs were all masterpieces!
"That's right, I remember now. There is a secret passage at the bottom of this space that leads directly to a certain place in the back mountain of Spirit Vulture Slope," Xiaowu said suddenly as she ran.
"Senior Sister, how did you know that there is a passage at the bottom?" Liu Ming was a little skeptical.
After all, he had seen with his own eyes that there was a huge vortex of Yin Qi at the bottom. Even if there was a passage there, ordinary people would have been turned into ghosts by the Yin Qi before they could pass through.
"Not long after we were caught, there was a companion at the Real Pellet State later stage who broke free from the enchantment and tried to save us. Just as Younger Brother Liu said, the passage is located at the bottom of a vortex of Yin Qi. In the end, as soon as he led us to the entrance of the passage, he was corroded by the Yin Qi that gushed out of the vortex and turned into the appearance of an evil spirit commander. Then, he captured us and brought us back, "Xiaowu explained.
As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived at the bottom of Spirit Vulture Slope. A suffocatingly thick wave of Yin Qi appeared in front of the two of them, revealing an incomparably massive vortex of Yin Qi.
Now that they were closer, Liu Ming saw that the entire vortex of Yin Qi was shrouded in a layer of faint gray light. It seemed that some kind of giant restriction had been set up to control the flow of Yin Qi from below.
At this moment, his entire body was already wrapped in a protective shield formed by billowing black Qi. It was constantly resisting the corrosion of the bone-piercing Yin Qi, but he still felt chills all over his body.
Beside him, a milky-white jade pendant suddenly appeared around Xiaowu's neck. It was emitting rings of bright light. The moment the Yin Qi that rose from the vortex touched the light, it disappeared like melting snow.
This was the protective treasure that Xiaowu had hidden in her body using a special secret technique. It had not been searched by the ghosts.
When Liu Ming looked around, he vaguely saw many sword marks on the mountain wall near the vortex.
These sword marks were three feet deep into the wall. They seemed to have experienced the vicissitudes of nearly a thousand years. For some reason, they gave him a very familiar feeling.
However, the situation was urgent and he did not have time to think about it. After withdrawing his gaze, Liu Ming looked at the vortex of Yin Qi in front of him again. He could not help but murmur,
"I wonder what is beneath this vortex. The Yin Qi it emits is so pure!"
"The secret passage is over there! Younger Brother Liu, let's go! " Xiao Wu suddenly raised her arm and pointed at a stone corridor not far away. It was about ten feet in size. It looked very ordinary.
Liu Ming looked in the direction of the voice. He saw that the stone corridor was diagonally ahead of the vortex of Yin Qi. If he wanted to go there, he would have to fly over the vortex.
He looked back at the road he came from and his lips moved a few words.
After two or three breaths, a black light shot from behind him. It was Scorpion.
Behind him, there was a noisy sound of something breaking through the air.
"Master, Scorpion is incompetent. Those zombies have thick skin and flesh, and there are more and more of them." Scorpion said with slight shame.
Liu Ming nodded. Without saying anything, he patted the Soul-cultivating Pouch on his waist. Scorpion turned into a roll of black Qi and drilled into it.
He made a sign with one hand, and the black Qi around him wrapped around Xiaowu. Then, he flew directly over the vortex of Yin Qi.
As a result, in mid-air, Liu Ming felt waves of Yin Qi that were several times denser than before pouring out from below. His whole body suddenly trembled. He gritted his teeth, and a silver light flashed behind him. A pair of fleshy wings flashed out, and the two of them turned into a silver light. They quickly flew above the vortex of Yin Qi and disappeared into the passage.
But unexpectedly, when the two of them flew wildly all the way to the end of the passage, they found that it was a dead end.
"Younger Brother Liu …" Xiaowu said with a look of disappointment on her face.
There was a flash of light in Liu Ming's eyes. He used his divine sense to sweep the end of the passage. Suddenly, he raised one hand, and a small yellow mountain flew out. It was the semi-finished Pearl of Mountains and Rivers.
"Boom!" A loud sound rang out!
The stone wall at the end of the passage was broken. Beams of light shone in, and the whole Vulture Slope shook violently.
"Let's go!"
Liu Ming waved his hand and the small yellow mountain transformed back into a yellow bead that flew back into his sleeve. At the same time, he kicked the ground with one leg and turned into a ray of green light that shot out.
Xiaowu didn't say anything. Her figure flashed, and she followed Liu Ming.
As a result, less than a moment after the two of them left the passage, a noisy roar came. It was a group of gray shadows that rushed out of the passage one after another. It was those zombie-like cultivators.
"Your spiritual power hasn't recovered, let me help you!" Seeing this, Liu Ming suddenly picked up Xiaowu, and the silver wings on his back flapped and flew into the sky.
Even though these zombie cultivators were impenetrable after being nourished by Yin Qi, their speed and intelligence were naturally not as good as Liu Ming's when he used the Beast Armor Technique to escape at full speed.
In just the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he was left far behind, disappearing without a trace.
In the following time, the two also encountered a few waves of Evil Ghost Legion cultivators on the way. Fortunately, Liu Ming was well prepared in advance. He used a few simple teleportation arrays along the way and avoided them effortlessly.
A few days passed by in a flash. After passing through five or six teleportation arrays in a row, Liu Ming and Xiaowu finally came to the foot of a small hill thousands of miles away from Golden Light City. They stopped and took a rest.
"This is already the territory of our Jin Guangjun. Even if senior sister has a treasure to protect your body, you will inevitably suffer a great loss of vitality. It's better to meditate and recover some vitality first." Liu Ming said, took out a pill and handed it to Xiaowu.
After receiving the pill, Xiaowu cupped her hands and thanked Liu Ming, "Junior brother is too polite. This time, junior brother came to the rescue alone. I really can't thank you enough."
"Senior sister is too polite. It's a pity that junior brother came too late. This time, I only saved senior sister. I didn't expect that the Evil Ghost Legion would capture so many cultivators for experiments." Liu Ming waved his hand and said with a sigh.
"I don't know where the Yin Qi vortex below the Spirit Vulture Hill came from. Its purity is more than ten times richer than other places in the Evil Ghost Path. After a few years of pure Yin Qi invading the human cultivator's body, coupled with some kind of restriction, their Divine Sense will gradually melt, but their strength will increase greatly. In the end, they will become zombie-like monsters." Xiaowu said with a bitter smile. Her expression was a little sad.
"Speaking of which, master has often talked about you these years." Hearing this, Liu Ming didn't say anything but changed the topic.
"Xiaowu has really let master down. If it weren't for the treasure that master gave me to protect my body and the help of Younger Brother Liu, I'm afraid I would have become a dead thing … I didn't expect that in just a few decades, Younger Brother Liu has also advanced to the False Core Stage. However, since junior brother also came to the Evil Ghost Path, I'm afraid you are also looking for a chance to break through to the Jin Dan, right?" Xiaowu said with a sigh.
"As the saying goes, one who survives a great disaster is bound to have good fortune later on! After this battle, I'm afraid that senior sister is one step closer to forming the Jin Dan! By the way, I just entered the Evil Ghost Path not long ago. Why don't senior sister take this opportunity to tell me about your experience in the Evil Ghost Path. "Liu Ming comforted Xiaowu with a few words and suddenly said with a smile.
"It's a long story …"
Hearing this, Xiaowu finally smiled and told Liu Ming everything in detail.
And Liu Ming also told her about some of the things that happened in the Sect in the past few decades, including the Elysium Meeting and the last trip to the ruins. He also mentioned a few words about it. After listening, Xiaowu naturally felt emotional.
After resting for a few hours, Liu Ming left the resting place and flew toward the direction of Golden Light City.
