Chapter 149: Encounter with Ember Spirit Again

Although the netherworld of the dead is dark all year round, it is covered with dense vegetation and many giant trees are hundreds of meters high. The trunks, branches, and leaves are all dark gray, and they grow by absorbing the unique yin energy of the netherworld.

The mountains are high and the terrain is steep. Even when you get close to the foot of the mountain, there are many cliffs and valleys. If you are not careful, you will be crushed to pieces.

Along the way, Li Weiyi discovered a lot of traces of battle.

Axes and swords flattened the trees, and swords split the mountain walls.

There were bloodstains and fragments of robes and ritual implements left in many places.

The time when the battles broke out varies, and can be deduced based on the layers of dried blood. The earliest battle took place a month ago, and the latest was twenty days ago.

Li Weiyi said, "It seems that our judgment is correct. The young martial artists from the major forces in Zangxian Town did take this road to leave Lizhou. But why are they fighting all the way? Is it a fight between the major forces, or did they encounter unknown dangers in the netherworld?"

Li Ling was meditating on Zou Wu's back, with a bronze lamp placed on the tiger's head. The blue light enveloped both the man and the beast.

She reminded: "Did you notice anything strange?"

Li Weiyi nodded: "We have walked for dozens of miles and found traces of more than ten battles, but we haven't seen a single body. It's impossible that all the bodies were taken away by their companions. There must be some left behind."

Li Ling said in the unique and quiet tone of Zen Sea Guanwu: "Many martial artists who died in the netherworld of the dead will turn into confused spirits. The dark power of the netherworld will corrode their corpses and pollute their souls."

"This dark force is all around us, everywhere."

"You mean, all the martial artists who died here have turned into dead spirits?" Li Weiyi was horrified and hurriedly used his magic power and five senses, fearing that a bunch of terrifying humanoid monsters would jump out of the darkness.

Li Ling said, "Something seems to be wrong again! Logically, when a corpse turns into a spirit, its intelligence is very low and its consciousness is weak, so it will stay where it is. But we didn't see a single one along the way. It's too clean!"

Li Weiyi felt uneasy at heart because of what she said, and he always felt a cold wind behind him. After returning to Zou Wu's back, he took out the high-level magic weapon, the green Yin Banner, and propped up a green array light gauze.

Dozens of armored dead souls flew out from the Yin Banner and guarded the surroundings.

Fight the dead with the dead.

The Mengshan Mountain Range is long. If you want to follow this road out of the secluded area and head to Zhizhou, it is more than a thousand miles away.

While on the road, Li Weiyi had been mobilizing his magical energy to nourish his lungs and drinking golden spring water to strengthen his bones. He did not dare to waste time and was actively preparing to impact the second level of the Five Seas Realm.

Only by entering the second realm of the Five Seas, cultivating the third level of Qi, and being able to turn combat tactics and thoughts into reality, can one truly be called a top master of the younger generation.

At that time, I felt more confident when competing with the masters of the younger generation.

Chan Hai Guan Wu beside him was absorbing the bottle of fresh blood he had just received from him.

Her body has already solidified.

You don't need too much blood to deceive the order of the Yang world, and you can arrive in this world in a living state during the underworld time of day and night.

The two walked another ten miles.

From afar, Chanhai Guanwu heard a sound in the darkness. Looking towards the dense forest ahead, he saw five figures walking in the forest, appearing and disappearing from time to time, several miles away.

With a flick of his finger, the dark light dimmed, shrouding the surrounding area for several feet into darkness.

Li Weiyi opened his eyes and looked in the direction she was looking at: "What's wrong?"

The darkness of the netherworld seriously affects the eyesight of martial artists.

Li Weiyi used the Heavenly Eye between her eyebrows to barely see the figures of people a few miles away. It was normal that she couldn't compare to Chanhai Guanwu. Just her body of a son of heaven was far beyond the reach of even the immortals.

Li Weiyi quietly walked forward to within a mile of the five people, and finally he could see clearly: "The three old men are wearing iron cloth battle clothes and holding broadswords. They should be the Five Sea Realm strongmen in the Sanchen Palace Iron Cloth Army. The young woman in the white martial arts robe, judging from the style of the martial arts robe, should belong to the Sui Sect."

Li Ling's voice rang out: "She is a young master from the Sheng Clan, the second largest family in the Sui Clan. She is Sheng Tianyin, and she is ranked in the top 20 among the young generation in the entire Sui Clan."

"The fifth one is quite powerful. He is the second best fighter of the younger generation of the Chili tribe, Chi Yongsheng, who has reached the fourth level of the Five Seas Realm."

Li Weiyi glanced at her, paying close attention to her eyes. "Strange, how come these five people got together? Logically speaking, the younger generation of martial artists from all the major forces should have left 20 days ago, so why are there still some people staying?"

"Instead of asking me, why don't you go meet them in person." Li Ling's tone was faint and it was impossible to tell who said it.

"Let's go."

Li Weiyi was a person with a strong curiosity and desire to explore. He activated the invisibility power of the high-level nightgown, hid the two magical weapons inside his robe, and quietly moved forward.

When he got within a dozen feet, he stopped and observed again.

Five people in the forest walked back and forth holding magical weapons and fighting weapons. They did not communicate with each other and it was very quiet.

This is too weird. A normal person shouldn't be in this state in a dark and mysterious place.

"Have they already become dead spirits?"

Li Weiyi was even more curious. He picked up a stone from the ground, wrapped it with his magical energy, and threw it out.

“Bang!”

The stone hit an old man from the Sanchen Palace in the chest and exploded on his iron cloth battle suit. But the powerful impact force contained in the stone, like a cannonball, shook the old man from the Five Seas Realm and threw him out along with his broadsword.

The other four shouted coldly in unison, their eyes falling towards where Li Weiyi was standing in hiding, looking for the attacker.

They have sharp eyes and are full of energy, yet they don't look like the confused and dazed souls that have passed away.

At the signal of Chi Yongsheng, who had the highest cultivation, two elders from the Sanchen Palace who exuded the aura of the Five Seas Realm stepped forward quickly with their swords in hand. They could not see Li Weiyi, but they knew where the stone flew from.

The two old men swung their swords wildly in all directions. The sword energy was several feet long and the sword light was illuminated by the magic energy, like lightning in the darkness.

Li Weiyi observed for a moment, stopped dodging, took out the iron book from his robe, and threw it out.

“Swish!”

The thirty-five pages of the book, wrapped in the magic energy, were like thirty-five balls of light, blasting the two old men from the Sanchen Palace away.

Their bodies were severely injured, and sparks flew out of the wounds, which were extremely eye-catching in the darkness. Li Weiyi's eyes widened in shock.

Akasaga Sheng and Morita Yin arrived very quickly, one after the other.

One of them was burly and strong, the other was delicate and graceful. Both of them had a strong and powerful aura and murderous intent in their eyes.

Before the person arrived, the storm of magic energy had already swept over Li Weiyi.

The two magical energies were so powerful that they almost shook Li Weiyi away. He had to use all his strength to steady his body and take root in the ground.

"roar!"

Chi Yongsheng let out a long howl, the sound was no different from thunder, and Li Weiyi's eardrums were about to break.

Facing a person at the fourth level of the Five Seas Realm, Li Weiyi did not dare to be careless at all. He immediately pulled out his high-level magical weapon, the Sky Flame Sword, and injected all his magical energy into it.

The blade turned into a burning cloud of fire and chopped towards Chi Yongsheng's waist and abdomen.

Chi Yongsheng did not fight the blade head-on, but dodged it by leaping in the air, and then sent out a palm print, pressing down on Li Weiyi's head.

He was wearing armor, and his palms were covered by armor, like a five-finger metal iron seal.

"Not good! He has combat wisdom, isn't he a dead spirit?"

It was too late to change tactics and resist at this time. The opponent was a person in the fourth realm of the Five Seas Realm, who was not comparable to those cats and dogs in the same realm. Li Weiyi immediately performed the Qingxu Ganchan Step, moving his feet, his body like a phantom, breaking out of the magical energy of Chi Yongsheng's palm power and narrowly avoiding it.

If he were hit hard by this palm, even an iron man would be broken into pieces.

Morita Yin and Akaga Katsu worked together in perfect harmony.

She followed closely behind, having already prepared a rain of sword energy for Li Weiyi, intending to cut his body into slices or chop it into meat paste.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Li Weiyi had many protective treasures, and he activated them all. Then he rushed into the sword energy rain waterfall, slashed with a domineering sword, and performed Taiyi Kaihai.

"boom!"

The knife light briefly tore through the darkness, like a bright moon standing on the ground.

Sheng Tianyin resisted with all her strength, but she was no match for Li Weiyi, and the sword in her hand broke, and her body flew out. The arm holding the sword was cut off at the shoulder.

She is one of the top 20 masters of the younger generation of the Sui Sect. Her combat power is so high that it is incomparable to that of ordinary martial artists in the third realm of the Five Seas Realm.

Although he severely injured such a master with one blow, Li Weiyi did not feel happy at all.

This is because Sheng Tianyin did not use the strongest combat state of the third level martial artist in the Five Seas Realm - "combat tactics and mind transformation" at all.

It seems she won't be the same.

What spilled from her severed arm was not blood, but countless bright sparks.

After she fell to the ground, she let out a strange cry, unaware of the pain, and suddenly turned over and stood up. The broken arm on the ground turned into a long snake of sparks and flew back, growing into a new arm.

In an instant, the broken arm was reconnected.

"this……"

Li Weiyi stared at the flames in Sheng Tian Yin's eyes and felt a familiar feeling in his heart.

“Da da.”

There were dense footsteps and they ran quickly to surround them.

Sheng Tianyin and the three elders from the Sanchen Palace attacked together, releasing their magical energy and bringing down their broadswords. Li Weiyi fought one against four, and the more he fought, the more frightened he became. They seemed to be invulnerable, and the wounds healed quickly when the Heavenly Flame Sword chopped them.

Chi Yongsheng, who had the highest level of cultivation, wandered around the edge of the battlefield, his eyes like a venomous snake, looking for an opportunity to kill with one blow.

At this time, the Zouwu monster came over.

Sitting on its back, Chanhai Guanwu had already figured out what was going on. With her slender and graceful fingertips, aura flowed, and she drew a rune and waved it out.

“Swish! Swish…”

Every rune cast out can suppress a person and make him fall to the ground.

Chi Yongsheng's eyes flashed with surprise, and he realized something was wrong. He glanced at the girl on Zuo Wu's back, and two flames appeared under his feet. He rushed towards the depths of the underworld at a high speed.

"Is it too late to escape now?"

Li Weiyi wore wind-resistant boots and moved sideways as fast as a ghost, blocking his way.

"roll!"

Chi Yongsheng roared, spit out a lot of sparks from his mouth, and punched out with all his strength.

The brilliance that burst out from the fist illuminated the surrounding area for miles, the energy was boiling, and the strength broke through mountains and rivers. It was a level of combat power that only a master of the fourth level of the Five Seas Realm could have.

Li Weiyi had long wanted to have a good fight, so he was completely fearless and chopped with the knife in both hands.

“Boom!”

The blade hit the iron fist, and the clanging sound was like two iron mountains colliding.

Li Weiyi retreated six or seven feet away, his ten fingers were numb and painful, and it was difficult for him to hold the sword firmly.

"Very good, come again."

Li Weiyi's body recovered very quickly. As soon as his magic power and immortality flowed along his veins to his arms, the pain and numbness disappeared. After the second circle, he had fully recovered.

Such a recovery speed is the reason why he dares to cross three realms and fight back.

Without giving him another chance, Chi Yongsheng was hit by the runes cast by Chan Hai Guan Wu, and he stood there motionless as if he was frozen.

Chanhai Guanwu flew in front of him and punched him on the Danzhong point on his chest.

“Bang!”

The fist force and magical energy surged in, and countless cracks appeared on Chi Yongsheng's body.

A monster covered in sparks flew out of his body and fell heavily to the ground behind him.

The monster still couldn't move, because the rune was aimed at it, not Chi Yongsheng. It was finally terrified: "Who are you? What is this rune?"

"The Ember Spirit can actually speak?"

Li Weiyi had seen the Cinder Spirit in the Ashes area beneath the Hidden Gate, so he could recognize it at a glance.
