Shi Yan and Cai Yi walked side by side. After ten minutes, they finally arrived at the underground area.
There was another world underground. It seemed to be hollow inside, with a huge swamp area.
In the swamp, there were many strange trees with vines. Those trees were shaped like humans. Each of them was ten meters high, and they were slowly moving in the swamp. Many ghosts were wandering around in the swamp, emitting cold evil thoughts that could affect people's Sea of Consciousness.
Those specters gave off an oily green light, and the water of the swamp was also a dark green. The swamp was illuminated in a very strange and eerie manner, as if it was a world of ghosts.
Dozens of Nirvana Realm and Sky Realm warriors were scattered in different directions of the swamp. All of them looked solemn, fighting against those strange trees and ghosts.
Once a warrior died, all of his blood would be drained. If his soul was not destroyed, it would be quickly assimilated by those ghosts and become a ghost, staring at those warriors with human auras and releasing terrifying soul fluctuations.
In the swamp, warriors from different places gathered together and were fighting. Among them, Zhao Feng, Li Yue, and the others were ten meters away from the left side of Shi Yan. They were also dealing with those rattan trees and ghosts with solemn faces.
After Shi Yan and Cai Yi got down, they didn't linger and immediately went to the place where Zhao Feng, Chi Xiao, and the others were.
"Shi Yan, be careful. These rattan monsters and hollow spirits are very hard to deal with. Swords, sabers, and other kinds of attacks are useless to hollow spirits. Only the soul attacks with Intent Domains can destroy hollow spirits. And those rattan monsters are strange creatures between plants and living creatures. They can suck human blood and use it to strengthen themselves. Don't get entangled by those rattan monsters. "
As soon as Zhao Feng saw him coming, he immediately shouted to remind him to pay attention to those rattan monsters and hollow spirits.
"Rattan monsters can be attacked with force. This kind of thing is very evil. Those rattan monsters have sharp thorns. Once they pierce through people's bodies, they will pierce into the blood vessels and suck the warriors' blood. Don't let those vines entangle you. The Hollow Spirits have a terrifying soul-corrosive power. Once they drill into your Sea of Consciousness, you'll be controlled by them. "
Chi Xiao was dealing with the vines of a rattan monster as if he was facing a formidable enemy. His body was shrouded in thick smoke, and his whole body was looming in the smoke. Once a rattan came over, he would hide in the depths of the smoke, making it difficult for those rattans to find his position.
Li Yue and the Lao brothers had been busy dealing with the Hollow Spirits, so they didn't have time to remind Shi Yan. When they saw him coming, they took the time to explain the power of the rattan monsters and the Hollow Spirits.
The roots of the three vine demons were rooted in the swamp, but they could move nimbly. It was as if they had legs, and their movements were very fast.
More than ten hollow spirits hovered around Zhao Feng, Li Yue, and the others. They seemed to know how to do it. Each time, they would attack together, releasing fierce soul fluctuations, attacking the Divine Radiant Cult and Chi Xiao's group.
Under those soul fluctuations, Zhao Feng and Li Yue could deal with them easily, but the Lao brothers couldn't bear it. Their faces grimaced as they constantly retreated, firmly guarding their Sea of Consciousness as they were afraid that the hollow spirits would occupy their minds.
Shi Yan carefully observed for a while and found that many warriors had hollow eyes with green pupils. Together with the Hollow Spirits and the rattan monsters, they were also attacking the warriors who had just entered the swamp.
Those people were obviously warriors, but their Sea of Consciousness seemed to be occupied by the Hollow Spirits. They had lost their consciousness and were completely controlled by the Hollow Spirits. They only knew how to mechanically attack the other warriors.
After ShiYan and CaiYi arrived, they immediately joined the battle, attacking the rattan monsters together with Chi Xiao, Zhao Feng, and the others.
Shi Yan just glanced around and found that there were many warriors in the swamp. However, because everyone was fighting with the rattan monsters and the hollow spirits, he couldn't see their faces clearly. Roughly estimating, he knew that there were at least seven or eight teams of warriors here.
In a farther place, there seemed to be a battle taking place. However, because it was too far away, he couldn't see it clearly.
Before coming to this small island, his Profound Qi had been restored through the Demon Crystals. The Ice Cold Flame and the Earth Flame had recovered seventy to eighty percent of their powers. Now, they were dormant in the Blood Vein Ring, ready to respond to his call at any time.
With so many things to rely on, he wasn't worried at all. He calmly dealt with the entanglement of the rattan monsters while quietly observing the situation around him.
"Be careful!"
CaiYi shouted to ShiYan, "Behind you!"
A green hollow spirit turned into a bunch of green light, bypassing Lao Li and suddenly stormed towards him.
That hollow spirit was transformed from a soul. It didn't have a body, but it had a very strong soul fluctuation. Flows of evil thoughts fiercely pierced into his head. That hollow spirit immediately caught up with it and directly dashed towards his Sea of Consciousness.
Shi Yan hadn't turned around yet, but he immediately felt a stabbing pain in his head, as if countless steel needles were piercing his head. It was so painful.
In the severe pain, he was careless for a moment, which gave the hollow spirit a chance to take advantage of.
A ray of green light suddenly disappeared from his mind.
The faces of Zhao Feng, Chi Xiao, and the others changed greatly. Cai Yi's beautiful eyes were also anxious as she shouted, "Shi Yan, stabilize your mind. Don't let the hollow spirit control you."
It was difficult for others to save this kind of soul attack. Zhao Feng, Chi Xiao, and the others could only helplessly watch the hollow spirit rush into his Sea of Consciousness.
Each warrior's Sea of Consciousness was a mysterious place that contained the host soul. When other people's soul consciousness rushed into the Sea of Consciousness, it would only make the Sea of Consciousness more chaotic. Perhaps, it would make the Sea of Consciousness even more violent, which would speed up the hollow spirit's control.
Therefore, seeing the hollow spirit rush into Shi Yan's Sea of Consciousness, Zhao Feng and the others didn't dare to rush their soul consciousness in. They knew that once they did so, it would only make Shi Yan more chaotic.
In the battle with the hollow spirit, one could only rely on one's soul cultivation base and strong willpower. If one couldn't resist the hollow spirit's control, one would become its slave and completely sink.
Zhao Feng, Chi Xiao, Cai Yi, and the others were startled. While they were dealing with the rattan monsters, they were also distracted to look at him, not knowing whether he could deal with it or not.
In Shi Yan's Sea of Consciousness.
The hollow spirit that had penetrated deep into his Sea of Consciousness had caused a change in his Sea of Consciousness. Countless strands of soul consciousness in his Sea of Consciousness seemed to become powerless in just a blink of an eye. A terrible spirit fluctuation rippled out from the hollow spirit, filling his entire Sea of Consciousness.
His eyes suddenly became blank and vacant.
When Chi Xiao and the others saw Shi Yan's vacant eyes, they all felt a chill in their hearts and knew that it was not good.
Cai Yi's face slightly changed, revealing a worried look. She shouted again, "Guard your mind."
However, at this moment, Shi Yan suddenly grinned and said, "Don't worry. I'm fine."
The Five Devils hiding in his Sea of Consciousness suddenly turned into five huge phantoms, fiercely storming towards the hollow spirit. The hollow spirit in his Sea of Consciousness showed an extremely panicked look. It didn't dare to stay any longer, as if it had found something terrible and hurriedly ran away.
The Five Devils swarmed over and entangled the hollow spirit together. They opened their big mouths full of sharp teeth and directly devoured the hollow spirit.
In the Sea of Consciousness, his host soul also opened the third eye. The evil aura of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame also quietly spread out.
In just a blink of an eye, he regained his senses and wasn't affected by the hollow spirit at all. Such a sudden change startled Zhao Feng and the others.
"Leave these hollow spirits to me."
While everybody was still frightened, Shi Yan's face was bewildered. He then excitedly said, "Don't deal with the hollow spirits. I alone am enough."
Just now, after the Five Devils had eaten the hollow spirit, Shi Yan clearly felt that the Five Devils had grown a little stronger. However, they still wanted more. In the eyes of the Five Devils, the hollow spirit seemed to be a great tonic that could enhance their strength.
With this discovery, Shi Yan directly let down his soul's defense and stood still, waiting for the hollow spirits to fall into his trap.
The hollow spirits' intelligence wasn't high, so they couldn't learn their lesson. After realizing that Shi Yan didn't put up any defense, the hollow spirits all turned into beams of green light, directly drilling into his Sea of Consciousness.
Whenever a hollow spirit fell into his Sea of Consciousness, as soon as it found the Five Devils floating above his Sea of Consciousness, as well as the natural enemy of his host soul that could destroy all souls, it desperately wanted to escape.
At this time, the Five Devils would scatter and search for the hollow spirits in his Sea of Consciousness. Once the Five Devils touched the hollow spirits, they would be stuck as if they were glued, unable to move anymore.
The Five Devils were extremely excited. They grabbed those hollow spirits and began to gorge themselves in Shi Yan's Sea of Consciousness, happily absorbing them.
A hollow spirit that was about to escape from his Sea of Consciousness was immediately destroyed by the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame, which was the third eye of his host soul. It then disappeared without a trace.
The Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame had the evil power to destroy all souls. Those hollow spirits entering his Sea of Consciousness were simply sending themselves to death. None of them could escape the evil light of the Nine Serenities Soul Devouring Flame.
Zhao Feng and the others saw the hollow spirits entering his Sea of Consciousness one after another, but Shi Yan still had a smile on his face. He was still leisurely looking around, as if he was looking for more hollow spirits. This made Zhao Feng and the others speechless. They shook their heads and sighed inwardly, as they were shocked by the strange ability that Shi Yan had displayed.
Soon, the hollow spirits that were hovering around Zhao Feng and the others were all devoured by the Five Devils in Shi Yan's Sea of Consciousness.
After the Five Devils had absorbed the hollow spirits, their bodies became bigger, and their images became clearer. Even their faces became vivid.
Shi Yan was suddenly not satisfied with the hollow spirits in this area.
With such a delicacy in front of him, if he didn't enjoy it, wouldn't it be a waste?
"I am going to find the other hollow spirits. You guys just need to be careful of those rattan monsters."
After informing CaiYi, ShiYan burst out laughing, left ZhaoFeng's place, and leisurely strolled around in the swamp.
The hollow spirits that were attacking the other warriors found that his Sea of Consciousness was not guarded, so they all rushed towards him as if they had been injected with chicken blood, flying into his Sea of Consciousness one after another.
All the hollow spirits that had fallen into his Sea of Consciousness had become the nutrients for the Five Devils to replenish their soul energy. The Five Devils had devoured them one by one inside his Sea of Consciousness.
The warriors' teams nearby quickly noticed this anomaly. They all revealed a frightened face and secretly observed ShiYan.
"Shi Yan, I am Ye Zhang Feng. Come here and help me."
A familiar voice suddenly came up from behind a group of rattan monsters on the left side. The voice seemed to be very anxious.
