Chapter 24 The Core of the Array: Yin Spirit Pearl
Just then, a familiar voice rang out, "Master, how can I help you?"
It turned out to be Little Fairy. When Ming Jiuyou came, they had a fight, but Little Fairy was no match for him. She was injured and shrank into a small size and hid.
It was almost back to normal, so it came back.
"I'll lure Ming Jiuyou away, and you lead them to break through the encirclement."
If it were just saving one person, Xiaoxianxian wouldn't have a problem, but there are too many people and too many evil spirits.
Little Fairy's body grew larger and larger, and its pincers were as strong and powerful as steel. Even so, looking at the dark mass of ghosts, it cried out in its heart: "My God, how long will this fight last?"
At this moment, it regretted that it had not refined a pair of wings, otherwise it wouldn't have been in such an embarrassing situation.
It seems I should eat less milk-flavored steamed buns and focus more on improving my cultivation level.
When the little fairy's body grew to be almost the size of a human, it stopped expanding. This was already the maximum range of its ability; any larger and it would explode.
“You all follow behind me.”
It has now transformed into a giant scorpion, brandishing a pair of thick, powerful pincers, and charging towards the demons.
Wherever it went, the ghosts were thrown far away, and some were killed by its spears or trampled to death.
However, there are just too many ghosts and evil spirits; they can't be thrown away or killed off completely.
After fighting their way through, they were gradually becoming overwhelmed by the attacks of so many ghosts.
"Master, don't you have several other pets? Why do you only have eyes for me? Are you just going to watch me work myself to death?" Little Fairy cried out sadly.
Only after Xiaoxianxian called out to her did Yu Xiaoluo remember this matter.
Good heavens, I completely forgot about that. Those few demonic pets have no sense of life at all. I don't know whether I should thank her for forgetting, so I can do less work.
Yu Xiaoluo released a bunch of poisonous creatures from her spatial storage.
Yes, the cobra demon, the toad demon, and the spider demon—these are all her pets.
Everyone has their quirks, and this is hers.
With her brothers and sisters arriving, Xiao Xianxian finally cheered up.
Four people—no, four demons working together—can carve out a bloody path.
At this moment, Ming Jiuyou was already at a disadvantage. He did not expect this girl to be so powerful, and her moves were so familiar. He finally realized something.
"Who is Shao Heyang to you?"
"Would you believe me if I said he was my disciple?" At this moment, Yu Xiaoluo was no longer the carefree girl she once was. Because of the intense battle, her pretty little face was full of seriousness.
Ming Jiuyou was shocked. "How is that possible? I don't believe it."
"See, I told you but you didn't believe me, so why did you ask me?"
Yu Xiaoluo couldn't help but mock him again, and the powerful aura emanating from her body surged towards Ming Jiuyou.
Ming Jiuyou finally began to believe her somewhat. If she didn't have that kind of confidence, where would she get the nerve to be so spoiled, arrogant, willful, and outspoken, and always picking on people's shortcomings?
While he was distracted, the Xuan Tian whip struck his chest, sending him flying a great distance. He felt a sweet taste in his throat and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He shouted, "Nine Netherworld Spirit Communication, Yin Sha Protection Formation, capture this woman alive!"
Upon hearing this, a large number of evil spirits surged toward Yu Xiaoluo, while the corpses and remains on the ground that had long since died also awoke and rushed toward her.
Ming Jiuyou laughed loudly, "So what if you are Shao Heyang's master? So what if you are powerful? Fortune changes every thousand years. Do you think you can break my Nine Nether Formation?"
Yu Xiaoluo lashed out with her whip, sending large numbers of evil spirits flying away, only to be replaced by even larger numbers of them. There were just too many of them, one after another, and she couldn't possibly kill them all.
She frowned deeply; if this continued, they would simply wear each other down to death.
Her pets weren't much better off; there were simply too many to kill them all. They could only surround and protect the Eagle team members, but they were already unable to advance.

Inside the cave.
Bao Shuyu couldn't believe who he was seeing.
It was that girl, the one who had said she would protect him. Although she looked a little older than before, Bao Shuyu could still recognize her.
At that moment, her hand was gripping his neck, her gaze was cold and vicious, and her smile was eerie.
The girl before him was someone he couldn't connect with the one who was full of a sense of justice and had pure, innocent eyes, but his intuition told him otherwise.
She is that girl.
Because that face was deeply etched into his mind.
But why is this happening? Bao Shuoyu's breathing became difficult, and his eyes began to glaze over. He wanted to break free of this body, but his soul couldn't escape!
This discovery horrified him. Was he really going to die at the hands of this girl?
His gaze began to glaze over; he couldn't bring himself to hurt her, for she was the only person who had ever been kind to him in his past life.
Bao Shuoyu felt like he was going to die. His eyes slowly drooped down and fell on the girl's wrist that was tightly gripping his. Back then, it was this hand that pulled him out of the abyss. Now, was it it that was pushing him back into the abyss?
Suddenly, he unleashed a burst of immense power and grabbed the girl's hand.
With a snap, the girl's hand bone broke.
The woman's face rapidly changed, transforming into the face of a stranger.
The Corpse Illusion!
Only women born in an auspicious year, month, and day can create such illusions.
No! It's a female corpse!
The female corpse suddenly collapsed.
Bao Shuoyu gasped for breath. This female corpse could actually create the illusion he cared about most. It was terrifying. He had almost been killed by her just now.
Is she the key figure in the formation?
Some formations do indeed use women born in the year, month, and day of the yin month as the core of the formation. Although these women have been dead for many years, their skin is still elastic and radiant, and they look as if they are fast asleep.
Only by destroying this female corpse could the array's core be destroyed. He pinched the female corpse's cheeks, and she opened her mouth, revealing a blood-red, crystalline bead inside.
Yin Spirit Pearl!
Bao Shuyu was overjoyed to find it.
This is the true core of the Yin Sha Formation; the female corpse is merely a tool for transmitting Yin energy.
He took the Yin Spirit Pearl out of the female corpse's mouth the instant he took it out.
The woman's corpse quickly decomposed, dried up, and then turned into a pile of grayish-brown bones.
At this moment, the Yin Spirit Pearl emitted a blood-red light in his palm, which was very dazzling, yet also extremely cold.
Stimulated by the light, the six people hanging on the wall let out a painful groan, then raised their heads, their eyes bloodshot.
Their spiritual power was completely consumed by the Yin Spirit Pearl, and their souls were also consumed until only one soul and one spirit remained.
If the Yin Spirit Pearl is destroyed, they will die as well.
However, the Yin Spirit Pearl is the core of the formation and must be destroyed!
