The blood plasma exuded a strong corrosive stench, hissing as it hit the ground.
Simultaneously, a thick sulfur sll spread.
"What the hell is this?!"
Sha Lifei's firearms sounded in quick succession, but only blew blood holes in the vines.
Everyone else frowned, never having seen such a fierce creature.
"Sothing's wrong, back off first!"
Li Yan's eyelid twitched, and he quickly led everyone to retreat.
He was puzzled, quickly tightened the burning Hook Paper in his arms, first closed his eyes, then quickly opened them again, chanting: "Heaven has records, earth has essentials, Yin Bureau detains souls, living people avoid!"
In an instant, the Yin Wind howled, the surroundings beca even darker, even the Ruyi Treasure Pearl dulled, seemingly suppressed by so force.
But within two breaths, the darkness and Yin Wind dissipated.
Looking again at the Blood Maple Forest, it had beco calm, the bizarre blood vines all lay limp on the ground.
Wang Daoxuan frowned, "Brother Yan, is there?"
He didn't say anything more, but everyone knew he was referring to yin criminals.
"No."
Li Yan shook his head, quickly moved forward into the woods, and ca out shortly after with a ceramic jar, which he threw on the ground.
This ceramic jar had a peculiar shape, not of Divine State style.
Crash~
After shattering on the ground, a large black crow corpse erged, exuding a strong stench, with blood threads extending outward from it.
In addition, there were so feathers, bones, and other items wrapped in burlap.
"Daoist Shoumingzi, have you seen any red-haired barbarians on the mountain lately?"
Facing the curious gazes of everyone, he looked at Shoumingzi.
What appeared here was not demonic qi, but an Outer Realm evil spirit not belonging to the Central Earth Divine Continent, imbued with a hint of Evil Spirit Qi, detected by the Hook Paper, thus issued a task.
Perhaps the Outer Realm Demonic Qi caught last ti, even the Netherworld Yin Bureau didn't know where they got the information, but they inford him of its origin.
This evil spirit was under Stolas, one of Solomon's 72 Demon Gods.
This Demon God was knowledgeable in astronomy, herbalism, and gemology, and its followers were especially adept at such Secret Techniques, while the Demon God usually appeared as a crow or in human form.
Although it was only an evil spirit, not demonic qi, it had also received Tao Gang Qi.
"Red-haired barbarians?"
Shoumingzi appeared surprised, "Never seen them."
Li Yan pondered, "In the Blood Maple Forest, there's Evil Spirit Qi scattered around, but suppressed by Taishan Innate Gang Qi, nearly worn out; years ago, sothing evil must have been suppressed here."
"Soone deliberately buried this item in the forest, absorbing Evil Spirit Qi to create chaos."
Shoumingzi's eyes burned with anger upon hearing this, "It must be those three wicked thieves!"
Li Yan asked solemnly, "Forgot to ask, who are the three Earth Immortals on the mountain?"
"Let's talk as we walk."
Shoumingzi, no fool, did not ask why Li Yan knew, but began to introduce as they walked: "These three, each with no small background."
"The leader is called 'Shi Xuanming,' originally an Earth Master Master, skilled at employing Ghost Gods, not famous but with profound Dao, ditating on Taishan, very familiar with the Earth Vein."
"Another is called Hu Sangu, nicknad 'Five Yin Mountain Lady,' originally from Xiangxi side door, skilled at controlling Mountain Spirits and Water Monsters, and also adept at Gu Technique."
"The last one is nad Zheng Boyin, nicknad 'Mr. Nine Springs,' originally a Feng Shui Doctor at Qintian Bureau, contributed to building the New Dynasty, granted special permission to cultivate at Taishan's spiritual acupoint..."
"Hahaha~"
After hearing this, Sha Lifei couldn't help but mock: "These three are no good people, just hearing about them, they are Ascenders, ruthless and devoid of emotions, wouldn't think anything of incense sentintality, wasted that you let wolves into the house."
Shoumingzi pretended not to hear, cupped his hands towards Li Yan: "Since the hero is a living Yin ssenger, he is their nesis, the Taishan anomaly must be caused by these three, please uphold justice on behalf of Heaven."
"Hu Sangu is already dead."
Li Yan replied, and didn't elaborate further.
Truth be told, he was sowhat displeased in his heart too.
The massive hunt of living Yin ssengers signaled a precursor to chaos, many Spritual Mountain Blessed Lands in Divine State hiding countless yin criminals, trouble may be unavoidable in the future.
If not for these major sects harboring their own interests, how could there be such calamity?
Seeing this, Shoumingzi sighed and said no more.
With experience, everyone's speed increased.
The No-Word Stele Yin Cave, with its bottomless and secluded entrance, roared with whistle.
The thing suppressed inside was clearly showing signs of breaking out.
Seeing this, Shoumingzi's expression changed sharply, chanting fiercely: "Twenty-Eight Stars, Horizontal Seven Stars! Heavenly Soldier Decree, Soul Suppressing and Heart Guarding!"
As he chanted, he took out four Taishan Stones from the pack behind him, with the characters "Stone Guardian" inscribed, placed them in four directions of the No-Word Stele.
Strangely enough, the Taishan Stones, once laid down, seed to take root on the ground.
The trembling No-Word Stele imdiately regained calmness.
Shoumingzi let out a breath of relief, "Soone destroyed the Wei Jin Ancient Array, these Taishan Stones connected to the Earth Vein can hold out for three days, we will deal with it then."
"Hmm."
Li Yan nodded, leading the group onward.
The coldest Kusong Creek, site of Late Tang Huang Chao's "Ghost Soldiers' Passage," the pool at its bottom, pitch-black as ink, had frozen to ice.
Beneath the smooth ice surface, white mist surged, forming one face after another.
To the most worriso place, sohow it had not broken seal.
The party disregarded it, pressing onward.
Father-in-law Peak Fox Immortal Cave, similarly had no anomalies.
Ultimately, after much peril, the group finally arrived at Hanging Coffin Cliff.
Yet, before nearing the core area, the Hook Paper in Li Yan's chest began to heat up.
"Careful, the remaining two are just ahead!"
Li Yan reminded, and everyone raised their vigilance.
Of course, they were not afraid.
After all, despite the opponents being Earth Immortals, Li Yan was a living Yin ssenger.
As they trudged forward, finally glimpsing the scene at Hanging Coffin Cliff, even the well-inford couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
