The sound of logging can be heard incessantly.
The trees fell one after another, and were then dragged out of the dense forest by the young Taoist priest and exposed to the sun.
The trees that had been cut down earlier had also been dragged out by him.
As his strength increased, doing all these things was no longer difficult for Xu Luo.
The wood, with its branches pruned off, was placed straight on the ground, to be dried by the sun.
Xu Luo used a homemade saw to saw the tree trunk evenly into sections, and then split it into pieces for exposure to the sun.
This way it will be faster and will be useful when it's fifteen.
Although the few trees that were cut down are nothing compared to the dense forest, and the negative energy that was released is even more insignificant, it is still better to do something than to do nothing.
In addition to dragging the previously cut down trees out of the dense forest, Xu Luo set up a small Yin gathering array in a place without sunlight, about 500 meters away from the edge.
This is a small formation. It is not difficult or troublesome to set up. Its function is relatively simple, which is to gather negative energy.
Such a small Yin-gathering formation can probably absorb the Yin energy within a radius of one thousand meters.
The purpose of setting up such a formation is, on the one hand, to serve as a habitat for his Taoist soldiers.
In this way, they can hide here during the day, enjoy the nourishment of Yin energy, recover and strengthen themselves, and they don’t have to hide during the day.
The second is to gather the surrounding Yin energy, which can reduce the concentration of Yin energy nearby and reduce the appearance of Yin spirits.
The third is that the Yin energy here is strong, which will attract Yin spirits to approach subconsciously. When the time comes, you can just sit back and wait, and eliminate the attracted Yin spirits, saving you from searching everywhere.
Although it can only attract Yin Qi within a radius of one thousand meters, Yin Qi is like water. It is usually widely distributed, but once it is less in a certain place, it will be replenished from other places to make it at the same level as the surrounding area.
Now that the Yin Gathering Formation has appeared, the Yin Qi within a radius of one thousand meters will gather on a large scale, reducing the Yin Qi in this one-kilometer area. The Yin Qi in the outer areas is already thin, and it is unrealistic to replenish it, so naturally the Yin Qi from deeper areas will flow back to fill the gap here.
If this continues for a long time, it will also cause a loss to the Yin energy deep inside, which in disguise reduces the concentration of Yin energy deep inside.
Because it is located relatively close to the edge, even though the visibility is still low, there is still some light where the Yin Gathering Array is located.
After activating the Yin Gathering Formation, Xu Luo clearly saw wisps of black air converging towards the center from all directions.
At the center of the array, on a wooden stake left over from felling trees years ago, Xu Luo dug a bowl-sized hole in the center of the stake, surrounded by runes.
And these streams of black air gathered in the center of the wooden stake.
Near the wooden stake, Xu Luo clearly felt that the temperature had dropped a little compared to the beginning and it was cooler.
And the temperature is still dropping.
As more black air currents surged over, the temperature dropped more significantly.
Xu Luo unconsciously released his qi and blood to resist the low temperature.
This is the body's instinct.
The Yin Gathering Array gathers Yin energy, which is a subtle process, so the speed is actually not fast.
It’s just because the negative energy has been gathering in the dense forest for many years and has not dissipated. No one knows how much it has accumulated over the years.
At this time, the Yin Gathering Formation began to actively gather Yin Qi, and immediately guided the surrounding Yin Qi over.
The deeper layers are affected by the chain reaction and make up for the shortage in the shallow layers. As a result, the areas within a radius of one thousand meters are constantly gathered and replenished, forming a continuous effect.
The coverage area of the Yin Gathering Array is only ten meters in radius. The attracted Yin Qi is firmly locked in this area and cannot spread out.
The Taoist soldiers who were previously scattered in all directions were now summoned directly by Xu Luo.
Staying at the Yin Gathering Formation, I could clearly feel the Yin spirits that had just been gathered in the middle of the night. At this time, my illusory body was recovering at a significantly faster speed.
Number 3 and Number 4, who are in their prime, are also absorbing Yin energy to strengthen themselves.
More than a dozen evil spirits crowded in an area of ten meters, and the surrounding evil energy was constantly being absorbed.
Seeing this scene, Xu Luo felt satisfied.
Although it is a small Yin gathering array, fortunately it can still supply them.
After doing all this, Xu Luo continued walking in the dense forest. During the day, he dared to go deeper into the forest, especially since Number One was following him.
Now that he has succeeded in refining his spirit, his body is much stronger than before.
After midnight, we crossed the dense forest where there was no place to step on and no path, making it very difficult to walk.
Various weeds, leaves, and twigs were tangled together.
Xu Luo took the hatchet and cleared a path.
On the way, I found a hidden ghost under a particularly large tree. I easily solved it and got a ghost bead.
Seeing this scene, Xu Luo became even more interested and asked No. 1 who was accompanying him to explore the area.
After all, Number One can float and is much faster than Xu Luo himself.
What made Xu Luo feel sorry was that after wandering around for more than an hour and going to many places, he only found two first-level evil spirits. Although they were easily solved, Xu Luo's idea of solving these evil spirits during the day was also shattered.
It’s not that it’s impossible, it’s just that the evil spirits are hiding too deeply, so it’s difficult to find them and the efficiency is not high.
After wandering around for a few hours without any results, Xu Luo returned to the direction of the Yin Gathering Formation.
At this time and here, over the past few hours, one can see the ten-meter radius covered by the Yin Gathering Array. The Yin energy gathered around it, and it has already been covered by a thin layer of fog. Perhaps if time is longer, the fog will become thicker.
And those subdued Yin spirits, in such an environment, being nourished by Yin energy, are also very comfortable. At this time, they just find a place to stay and enjoy the Yin energy entering their bodies.
The original weak appearance disappeared at this moment.
Next, you will slowly improve your level under the nourishment of Yin energy.
Although the speed is very slow and it may take ten days or half a month to improve, it is long-lasting and stable and does not require Xu Luo to pay any extra cost.
And this is only because there are only a few of them at present. If there were hundreds or thousands of Yin spirits, and they all absorbed Yin Qi together to improve themselves, then the situation would be completely different.
What's more, while they are strengthening themselves, they are plundering the Yin energy in the dense forest, which is equivalent to snatching food from the hands of those Yin spirits, thus weakening the other side in disguise, which is beneficial to themselves.
Moreover, in such a place, Xu Luo also knew that when he performed the ritual, things would go more smoothly and his progress would be faster.
He added a second-level Yin Soul Bead to the Yin Soul Bead he had just obtained and completed the ritual of refining No. 4.
It only took an hour and a half, which was ten to twenty minutes faster than normal.
At the same time, the mana consumed is also less. When the previous No. 2 and the current No. 3 were sacrificed, 800 mana were used. However, when sacrificing No. 4 now, only 650 mana were used, and fewer ghost beads were used. Obviously, the efficiency has been greatly improved.
