The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Having subdued a Yin spirit comparable to the early stage of the Earth Realm, Lu Ye instantly manipulated the blazing flames to envelop it...

Instantly, just like the previous ghosts, this Earth Realm ghost immediately showed a trace of fear.

However, Lu Ye discovered that the refining speed... had become less than ideal.

That spirit from the underworld also possessed some intelligence. Although it wasn't a fatal refining process, it showed a terrified expression and was secretly gathering its strength to escape.

As Lu Ye watched the performance of the Earth Realm Yin Spirit, he subtly inserted a sharp sword aura within the blazing fire wheel...

In an instant...

"ah?!!"

At this moment, the screams of the vengeful spirits in the underworld became genuine and heartfelt, carrying a strong sense of unease.

It never expected that this sixth brother would add something else inside the Blazing Fire Wheel!

A moment later, the mortal spirit completely perished, revealing an energy crystal core.

Previously, Lu Ye had collected a lot of crystal cores from the dead souls, intending to use them all as the energy source to maintain the operation of the formation in his former secluded place in the Floating Cloud Mountains.

Therefore, we naturally welcome all comers, the more the better.

"The level of the Yin spirits deep inside is much higher than that of those on the outer perimeter. It's difficult for pure flames to refine them quickly," Lu Ye said slowly as he accepted the crystal core.

Qingyu nodded and said, "Yes, I can see that. The level of that Yin spirit just now seems to be about the same as mine. It is definitely at the first or second level of the Earth Realm."

Lu Ye fell into deep thought.

The Burial Plains of Demons are simply too vast.

It's not right for me to just stay here like this.

Who knows how many ghosts are wandering around, and how many have already possessed someone and left this forbidden area?
"Therefore, we still need to go deep into the sand to see what exactly happened. Dealing with the vengeful spirits on the plains outside the sand is only a temporary solution..."

After a moment's thought, Lu Ye no longer had any intention of deliberately exterminating the ghosts outside the sandy area.

The important thing is to get to the sandy area as soon as possible and find out the cause.

After dealing with the absorbed spirits, Lu Ye didn't linger and headed straight for the Burial Demon Sands with Qingyu.

...

The Burial Sands are located deep in the plains, a desolate and cold expanse of sand that seems to be shrouded in a layer of gray mist all year round.

When Lu Ye and his companion appeared here, they became the only living people visible within a hundred miles.

Upon arriving near the sandy area, Lu Ye's powerful spiritual sense indeed detected numerous vengeful spirits scattered throughout the sand.

The number of ghosts was completely different from the last time it came, when there were only a few scattered spirits.

This time, Lu Ye did not use the Blazing Fire Wheel again, but instead took out a Four Directions Thunder Pearl and began to activate it.

In an instant, under Lu Ye's control, fine bolts of lightning began to appear and descend upon the vast sandy land.

Boom! Snap!

As bolts of lightning descended, each bolt instantly shattered the vengeful spirits in a small area.

This kind of annihilation speed is much faster and more efficient than the Blazing Fire Wheel, which is only at the Heaven-rank martial skill level.

Moreover, even the most powerful spirits in the Earth Realm could not withstand this even stronger lightning power.

The commotion caused by their direct ascent was noticed by cultivators outside the plains.

"This is... the Plains of Burial Demons?! What happened inside? Why is there suddenly a torrent of lightning?"

"Hiss... It seems to be more than just the Burial Plains of Demons. Judging from the distance, it's very likely to be the sandy land deep within the plains... Didn't a large number of ghosts recently emerge there?!" The continuous thunder was the most terrifying manifestation of heavenly power.

Not far from the plain, Yu You and Zhao Guang did not rush to leave.

At that moment, they also witnessed the heavenly lightning power raging across the sandy area.

"This...this is Senior Chen making a move in the Burial Demon Sands?" Zhao Guang stared at the winding lightning serpents spreading across the distant sky, somewhat incredulous.

How could Chen Beixuan possibly control and mobilize such divine power?

"It's most likely him. This kind of phenomenon doesn't happen out of nowhere in the sand." Yu nodded, somewhat sighing.

Even though they were separated by a great distance, the sheer power still made this fifth-level mortal cultivator feel lingering fear.

With this power, crossing borders to fight enemies will no longer be a problem.

He truly deserves to be called an absolute prodigy renowned throughout the various states.

"It seems that our chances of solving the desert disaster have increased by another two points," Zhao Guang said with a deep sense of awe.

While the outside world was buzzing with discussion, Lu Ye had already entered the sandy area and was heading deeper into it.

Lu Ye had never been to this location before. The first time he entered the underground palace, he hadn't even reached this spot.

"There's a deep pit ahead, it seems to lead underground?" Qingyu quickly noticed the anomaly and exclaimed in surprise.

underground……

Lu Ye's expression shifted. Could it be another entrance to an underground palace?

"Let's go down and have a look."

After cleansing away all the surrounding spirits with the power of lightning, and collecting all the floating crystal cores of various levels into his storage ring, Lu Ye headed towards the deep pit in the sand.

Qingyu followed closely behind, cautiously observing her surroundings. She was prepared to release the Thunder God Lion immediately if she sensed anything amiss.

The deep pit passage seemed to be quite long. As soon as the two entered, a cold, dusty aura immediately hit them.

Moreover, the further down you go, the more you seem to hear... faint sounds of water?

The sound of flowing water!
After the two of them came down from the passage, Lu Ye looked at the scene in front of him with a hint of surprise.

Not far ahead, there was a river surging forth from underground in the distance!
Underground river!

Most surprisingly, the river water was also as black as ink, making it impossible to see how deep the bottom was.

If he hadn't known that he was currently in the Western Region, Lu Ye would have even thought...

Has he entered the forbidden area of ​​the Black Tide?
The river in front of us clearly looks a bit like the Kuroshio River!
However, its width doesn't seem as exaggerated as the Kuroshio River Styx.

"Below this deep pit, there's actually a river? I have a feeling that there are many dangers in the river, and there's a faint... voice calling to me? Young master, can you hear it?"

Beside her, Qingyu subconsciously took two steps back, looking warily at the rushing river not far away.

call……

Lu Ye's eyes narrowed.

Well, it's starting to match the characteristics of the Kuroshio River more and more.

He didn't hear the call that Qingyu mentioned. Lu Ye guessed that it was probably related to the strength of his mental power.

At this moment, he was much stronger than when he first went to the Black Tide River Styx.

And this underground river located beneath the Burial Demon Sands… Lu Ye felt it somewhat resembled a branch of the Black Tide Styx River! (End of Chapter)
