"I disagree. Why can't you agree?"

Yin Shen You Jiu stared angrily at Lin Jinglong.

His words were full of menacing intent.

"Don't forget, I already promised you that as long as you don't try to kill me again, I won't hold the Chen family matter against you. We have no grudges against each other, have we?"

Lin Jinglong smiled as he looked at the old man in front of him.

He strode toward the cave's exit.

The old man stared at his back, a fierce glint in his eyes.

"Why haven't you made a move yet? You abandoned the spirits of the Chen family ancestors, deliberately left traces, led me into this Shandong, and then had your old servants burn all these records and files, pretending to be panicked."

"Isn't it just to lower my guard?"

"Did you think you were really afraid of me, so you could launch a sneak attack?"

Lin Jinglong, who was standing at the entrance of the cave, suddenly turned around and looked back.

You Jiu's expression finally changed noticeably, and the old servant trembled and stood up from the ground, looking at Lin Jinglong in disbelief.

Master Youjiu's scheme was actually exposed?

In fact, over the years, while following You Jiu, he had encountered some powerful martial artists, and some of them even managed to injure You Jiu using secret techniques of extreme yang and strength.

But in the end, You Jiu used the tactic of feigning weakness to defeat them.

They forced the other side to retreat.

But in the end, none of those who were forced to retreat could escape his counterattack.

A Dao Integration cultivator like You Jiu, who survived the extinction of the Heaven and Earth and survived for thousands of years, must have exceptional skills and temperament.

You Jiu looked at Lin Jinglong with some surprise.

"You actually saw through me?"

Lin Jinglong looked at the other party with a cold smile.

"Although you are only a Yin Spirit cultivator and not a fully formed cultivator, you cultivate the Divine Path, and your strength surpasses that of a Celestial Martial Emperor. Who would dare to underestimate you?"

If the other party hadn't revealed his Dao Integration stage cultivation, Lin Jinglong would have actually been fooled into thinking that this guy was genuinely afraid of him, which was why he was willing to reveal so much of the truth.

Unexpectedly, the opponent appeared as a Dao-Merging Yin God.

In terms of martial arts realm, the Dao Integration Yin Spirit can be compared to the Supreme Martial Emperor!

In addition, this person cultivates divine methods, consumes incense offerings, and controls 100,000 dead souls. He is no weaker than Mo Dongchen, and it can be said that even Mo Dongchen in his prime was no more than this.

How could someone like him be afraid of me?

So when Lin Jinglong saw his cultivation level, he had already begun to speculate, and eventually confirmed his guess.

"An existence like you, who has lived for thousands of years, is extremely cautious. Now that I know of your existence and your secrets, it is not I who want to exterminate you."

"It should be you, right?"

Lin Jinglong smiled as he looked at the old man in front of him.

You Jiu could only nod silently.

He certainly didn't intend to let Lin Jinglong off the hook.

Besides the thousands of souls lost by the Chen family, what's even more important is that Lin Jinglong has already learned of his existence and his schemes.

This made him decide to kill Lin Jinglong.

"Then why aren't you making a move? Aren't you hiding four Celestial Yin Gods at their peak here, watching me with predatory eyes?"

Lin Jinglong looked around the cave.

When he entered, he had already sensed it with his powerful spiritual energy, but the other party was so well hidden that he didn't even notice anything unusual at first.

However, after raising their guard...

He then realized that four celestial beings and yin spirits were hiding nearby.

The so-called Yin spirits are ghost cultivators who have practiced divine methods. Apart from not having the physical body of a living person, their spiritual strength often surpasses that of martial artists of the same realm, and they can also be worshipped with incense.

As for ordinary wandering spirits and vengeful ghosts, they are no match for Yin gods. Only wandering spirits that are powerful enough are qualified to be called Yin gods.

Originally, after the severing of the connection between heaven and earth and the great changes in the world, the ancestors of the Chen family also had the opportunity to give birth to a Yin God through the family's incense offerings.

But You Jiu was secretly behind the scenes, intercepting them.

This naturally eliminates such a possibility.

As soon as Lin Jinglong finished speaking, four elders dressed in ancient costumes emerged from the surrounding rock walls, one of whom was even an old woman.

She looked at Lin Jinglong with a sinister and vicious expression.

There was an almost innate resentment in his eyes.

The other three were the same.

Lin Jinglong realized that he did not know these Yin Gods. The reason they hated him so much was because they were being controlled by You Jiu.

So he also took out the Life-Giving Banner.

They intend to replicate the previous battle.

Using their overwhelming numerical advantage, they crushed You Jiu and the four Heavenly Human Yin Gods under his control.

You Jiu murmured, "You are probably the strongest opponent I have encountered in all these years, and you are so young. I really can't bear to kill you."

"Oh? I'm already the strongest?"

Lin Jinglong looked at the other person with amusement.

You Jiu snorted coldly.

He waved his hand, signaling several Yin spirits to surround him.

"And you are the smartest one. The four standing in front of you now were once my enemies, but they all died by my hand and were refined into Yin spirits by me."

"However, you're about to die at their hands!"

"These four Yin spirits grow by absorbing incense offerings and cultivate the divine way of incense offerings. They are far superior to the wandering ghosts under your command!"

As You Jiu finished speaking...

He then signaled the four Yin Gods to attack Lin Jinglong.

The four of them exuded the powerful aura of a Celestial Martial Emperor, causing a rumbling sound throughout the cave. Meanwhile, the lewd old servant huddled in a corner, looking terrified.

Lin Jinglong released several powerful wandering souls from within the Life Banner to block these Yin Gods. Even the souls that had reached the Nascent Soul stage were no match for these Yin Gods.

In an instant, he was plunged into a state of utter devastation.

However, Lin Jinglong had the advantage of possessing tens of thousands of ancient cultivators' souls, so he could slowly wear them down by sheer numbers.

Lin Jinglong had a faint smile on his lips.

"Your divine magic can, to some extent, restrain my Life Banner."

Since acquiring the Life Banner, aside from facing monstrous powerhouses like Lin Ruchu or Kun Gan Daoren, this is the first time the Life Banner has encountered an insurmountable problem.

"Hahaha! This is nothing!"

You Jiu suddenly took out a treasure umbrella.

The oiled paper umbrella looked ordinary, but it emitted a mysterious incense scent, and its unique fragrance even made Lin Jinglong somewhat infatuated.

You Jiu scoffed, "It's just a Life Banner; it's not like I can't break it."

"You have the Spirit-Suppressing Banner, I have the Spirit-Suppressing Umbrella!"

The words fell.

He opened the oil-paper umbrella, and the extremely rich and exotic fragrance made Lin Jinglong's expression somewhat dazed. All the powerful wandering souls under his control, numbering over a hundred, were actually absorbed into the Spirit-Suppressing Umbrella.
