Ye Ling looked around at the densely packed, drifting, unconscious remnants of souls. She pursed her lips, a hint of reluctance flashing in her eyes.
Among these lingering souls are many children; some are wearing school uniforms and carrying backpacks, some are just learning to walk, and some are infants.
Their pale faces all showed confusion, and some children unconsciously called out 'Mom', 'Brother', or 'Sister'...
They all had blood and horrific wounds on their bodies, indicating they likely died in the earthquake. The reason they were drifting here was probably because their bodies hadn't been buried.
Everywhere you look, there are ghosts.
The black fish in Ye Ling's mind suddenly broke free from the white fish's suppression and came outside. It quickly passed through these ghosts, and soon devoured the ghosts and yin energy in the air.
When it returned to Ye Ling's mind, it was suppressed by the white fish once again.
Ye Ling: "..."
She thought to herself, "You're really something. I was still figuring out how to send them to the underworld, and you just popped out and devoured them. What's the difference between you and a ghost cultivator?"
The ghosts we encountered this time were different from those we encountered elsewhere. The ghosts here were all unconscious; they neither attacked people nor devoured their companions, they just wandered around.
After purifying the man's primordial spirit, the white pearl returned to Ye Ling's mind and then disappeared into the white fish.
The white fish conveyed a message, roughly meaning that once she collected the Five Elements Hearts, the Fusang Divine Tree in the space could open a connection to the Underworld, and the Road to the Yellow Springs could be established at any time...
Ye Ling was shocked. Could it be like this?
She must get to the Northwest as soon as possible.
As she exited her sea of consciousness and was about to go find You Ziming, she saw that You Ziming had already come to her side. Seeing that her eyes flickered slightly, he said, "This place has been cleaned up. I'm sorry I couldn't help."
Ye Ling chuckled: "How could that be? During my battle, you absorbed some of the death aura, which allowed me to kill him in a short time."
You Ziming looked at her without saying anything. He knew she was comforting him, but he was quite enjoying it.
Because being comforted by her means that she still cares about him.
Ye Ling then noticed that his hair was frozen solid. She quickly reached out and placed her hand on his back to dispel the chill from his body: "I'm sorry, the situation was urgent just now, and I didn't tell you to wear more clothes before we came out."
"And you too, why didn't you tell me? It only took me a moment to retrieve the clothes from my spatial storage."
You Ziming felt warm all over. He looked at Ye Ling with adoration and said gently, "I'm not afraid of the cold, and I don't want to cause you any trouble."
Feeling a little embarrassed by his intense gaze, Ye Ling coughed and said, "If I forget again next time, you must remind me."
"Okay, I'll definitely do it next time."
Ye Ling withdrew her hand, pursed her lips, and asked him, "Are you going back to your space, or are you coming to the base with me?"
"I'll go to the base with you."
Such opportunities to be alone together are extremely rare, how could he possibly miss them?
Ye Ling didn't refuse and took out a thick military-style down jacket that he often wore from his spatial storage and gave it to him: "Put it on quickly."
