With a thunderous roar, the lightning shone in all directions, lighting up the area within a hundred meter radius. Under the purple lightning, countless corpses could be seen, giving off a strange color.
A few Wandering Corpses trembled under the lightning and let out terrifying howls. A grey aura spread out from their bodies like smoke. That was the Evil Yin Qi in the Wandering Corpses.
Lightning had always been the nemesis of evil things, especially after refining the Thunderbolt Core. Lei Ba's power of lightning was even stronger, causing more damage to the Wandering Corpses. Of course, even so, the damage that Lei Ba caused to the Wandering Corpses was still incomparable to that of Feng Wuhen, but close to that of Xia Yongxun.
The strength of a low-level Wandering Corpse was equivalent to a peerless expert at the middle level of the First Refinement, while the strength of a mid-level Wandering Corpse was comparable to a peerless expert at the peak of the First Refinement. As for the high-level Wandering Corpse, it had the strength of a peerless expert at the beginning or even the middle level of the Second Refinement.
The periphery of the Great Demon Abyss was also the area where the Wandering Corpses were active. Only after passing through this area could they be considered to have truly entered the Great Demon Abyss.
There were almost no opportunities in the periphery of the Great Demon Abyss. Even if there were, they were left behind by those who had entered the Great Demon Abyss and died in the periphery. The cultivators who died in the periphery were usually at the Saint level. The most powerful ones were only at the First Refinement. As long as they had the strength of the Second Refinement, even if they could not defeat the high-level Wandering Corpses, they could still escape.
"Be careful, we are about to enter the area of the Evil Spirits." Xia Yongxun said, "The Evil Spirits are different from the Wandering Corpses. They are formed by the will of an expert absorbing the Evil Yin Qi. Their form can change freely and they are not afraid of physical attacks. They can also create all kinds of illusions to catch people off guard. Only the power of the will and the power of the heavens and earth can resist and hurt them."
The Wandering Corpses had a strong body, while the Evil Spirits were formed by the will of an expert absorbing the Evil Yin Qi. They were a spiritual form. Physical attacks could not hurt them at all. Only the will and the power of the heavens and earth could resist them. Especially the will, the effect was the most obvious.
Following Xia Yongxun's words, the group did not stop and entered the area of the Evil Spirits.
The outermost part of the Great Demon Burial Abyss was the Wandering Corpse Region. Once one entered the Great Demon Burial Abyss, it would be the Dark Spirit Region. Only after entering the Great Demon Burial Abyss would one enter the Great Demon Burial Abyss.
The Ghost Region already had dangers that could kill Second Refinement masters. Of course, it also had opportunities that could tempt Second Refinement masters. In the Devilish Region, even Third Refinement masters had a high chance of dying. The Devilish Region was shockingly large, reaching the center of the Great Devil Burial Abyss. Therefore, even Fifth Refinement Saint Venerables could not guarantee their survival if they entered the depths of the Great Devil Burial Abyss.
However, to Chu Mu and the others, if they wanted to obtain an opportunity that could significantly increase their strength, they had to enter the Devilfiend Zone. That was the most basic thing they had to do.
Cold winds howled, and the Baleful Yin Qi in the Yin Spirit Territory became even more intense. The cold Yin Qi continued to seep into the bodies of the people, trying to corrode them, but it was expelled by the power of the people.
Suddenly, Chu Mu felt a soft murmur in his ear. That voice seemed to come from far away, but also seemed to ring directly in his ear. It was intermittent, but also seemed to be saying something. It also seemed to be calling out to Chu Mu.
This voice was soft and gentle, like a gentle breeze, making people feel comfortable. It was as if the surrounding darkness had retreated, and the cold Yin Qi had dissipated. Instead, it was replaced by light. The light was gentle and warm, making Chu Mu feel comfortable from inside out, even including his Origin Spirit.
In fact, Chu Mu even had the thought of staying here and immersing himself in this comfortable environment.
However, just as this thought appeared, Chu Mu's Origin Spirit and the Godsealing Compass in his Spiritual World shook at the same time. The two Sword Souls' Sword Light shone brightly, and the Eternal Sword Intent spread out, instantly covering every corner of his Spiritual World.
There seemed to be an incomparably sharp and mournful scream that tore through his eardrums. The light around him immediately dissipated, returning to darkness. The warm and peaceful feeling also disappeared without a trace in an instant, returning to its original cold and gloomy state.
The moment the light dissipated, Chu Mu vaguely caught a glimpse of a black shadow from the corner of his eye. It melted like ice and snow, disappearing without a trace.
"That's the Yin Spirit?" Chu Mu thought to himself. Then, he looked around and swept his gaze across the people.
Xia Yongxun also woke up. In the past, he had been to the Yin Spirit Domain and had been attacked by the Yin Spirits. Since he had experience, he would be able to better defend himself.
Seeing that Chu Mu seemed to have woken up earlier than him, Xia Yongxun was shocked. He had experienced it once, so the moment he stepped into the Yin Spirit Domain, he had been on high alert. This kind of alert was different from Chu Mu and the others. Because Chu Mu and the others hadn't experienced it before, they were only on guard. Xia Yongxun, on the other hand, could use his own will.
Chu Mu had woken up earlier than him. This meant that Chu Mu's will was much stronger than his. Will could be split into many forms. Sword Intent was one, and faith was another.
It wasn't that Xia Yongxun didn't want to tell Chu Mu and the others what to do. It was just that it was very difficult to explain. He had already told everyone about the dangers of the Yin Spirits. As for how to defend themselves, they could only rely on their own abilities. Even if others could help once, they couldn't help every time. They had to face it themselves.
Feng Wuhen and the others stood motionless, their eyes glazed over.
"Don't touch them. After being attacked by the Yin Spirits, they can only rely on their own will to resist," said Xia Yongxun.
"What if we can't break free?" asked Chu Mu.
"If we can't break free, our Primordial Spirits will become food for the Yin Spirits and will be devoured. The fragments of our consciousness will absorb the Baleful Yin Qi and become new Yin Spirits." Xia Yongxun's voice had a trace of sorrow, as if something like this had happened to him in the past. Shortly after, Xia Yongxun added, "This is just the beginning of the Yin Spirit Domain. The Yin Spirits won't be too strong. With their will, they can resist it. The only difference is the length of time."
Since that was the case, Chu Mu and Xia Yongxun could only wait here.
Whether they could survive or not depended on whether Feng Wuhen and the others' wills were strong enough to not be confused.
As for Chu Mu, who had been attacked by the Yin Spirits once, the Eternal Sword Will spread out and guarded his spiritual world.
Sword Will was the ultimate embodiment of the power of will. It was as sharp as a sword and could not be invaded by any evil. The reason why Chu Mu had been attacked by the Yin Spirits in his spiritual world and had seen illusions was because he had not used his Sword Will. Of course, it was also because he had not made sufficient preparations despite his vigilance.
This was actually Xia Yongxun's intention. They had just entered the Yin Spirit Domain, so the Yin Spirits would not be too strong. Therefore, the influence on the will would not be too strong. With everyone's will, they could resist it. As long as they had the experience of resisting it once, they would know how to better resist the Yin Spirits when they went deeper into the Yin Spirit Domain.
After all, different people often had different ways of doing things. It was their own habits or a kind of specialty.
After a few more breaths, Feng Wuhen's eyes moved. They went from being dull to being lively. Obviously, he had resisted the Yin Spirit's attack and awakened.
Generally, if the Yin Spirit's attack failed, it would most likely turn into ashes. A few lucky ones would be able to escape and hide to absorb the Yin Qi to recover their strength. It would often take decades or even longer to recover.
After about a dozen more breaths, Kong Liu and Lei Ba woke up one after another. After three breaths, Wang Sun woke up.
"This Yin Spirit is really terrifying. It is invisible and impossible to guard against." Lei Ba said with lingering fear. Obviously, he had experienced a very dangerous illusion. Otherwise, he would not be so emotional.
"Fortunately, the Yin Spirit this time does not seem to be strong enough." Wang Sun was also afraid. Among everyone, his strength was the weakest, and his will was also the weakest. However, he could still resist it.
"Everyone, this is the beginning of the Yin Spirit Domain. Therefore, the Yin Spirits will not be too strong. The deeper you go, the more terrifying the Yin Spirits will be. Since everyone has experienced it once, you should know how to better resist the Yin Spirit's attack." Xia Yongxun said, "Even so, you cannot let your guard down. If you are not careful, you may be attacked by the powerful Yin Spirits. Your Primordial Spirit will become food and your consciousness will become a new Yin Spirit."
When everyone thought of that terrifying ending, they were shocked.
"Let's go. We must enter the Devilish Region and obtain enough fortuitous encounters to increase our strength. Otherwise, we will not be able to fight against the Imperial Dynasty. We might as well die here." Kong Liu said.
Indeed, if they did not have enough strength to fight against the Imperial Dynasty, they would only die. Since they were going to die either way, they might as well enter the Devilish Region and obtain enough fortuitous encounters to increase their strength. Only then could they fight against the Imperial Dynasty.
Everyone entered the Great Devil Burial Abyss this time with the idea of facing death and fighting to survive. Naturally, they would not be afraid of the slightest thing.
They continued to enter deeper into the Yin Spirit Domain.
Very quickly, more Yin Spirits appeared and attacked silently.
However, everyone had experienced it once before. Therefore, they were already prepared. They reacted immediately and fought against it.
Chu Mu's Eternal Sword Intent guarded the spiritual world. It was incomparably high-end, like a god standing above the clouds. As soon as the Yin Spirits attacked and entered the spiritual world, they were suppressed by the Eternal Sword Intent. They could not affect Chu Mu at all. Under the terrifying power of the Eternal Sword Intent, they were destroyed and turned into ashes. Only a sharp scream was heard.
In less than a breath, the Yin Spirit that attacked Chu Mu was finished.
As for the others, although they were on guard, their willpower was much weaker than Chu Mu's. Therefore, it took them two to three breaths of time to break free of the Yin Spirit's attack, and they didn't manage to kill all of them.
Forward, forward, forward. The six of them continued to move forward. The deeper they went into the Yin Spirit Domain, the stronger the Yin Spirits they encountered. Even Chu Mu was affected and could not kill them within a breath. It even took him two breaths. If Chu Mu was like this, then the others would be even worse.
