Chapter 197 An unexpected gain
The thought that there was a lot of high-quality Yin energy down there filled Jieming with energy.

His figure soared into the sky again, flying directly to a height of several hundred meters.

Looking down at the city ruins he had razed to the ground, the "Great Light Image" behind him unfolded once again in this area!

This time, his goal was no longer to clear out the Yeti, but... to dig.

"Maximum power output! Concentrate on one point and blast it open!"

As Jemin gave the order, the thousands of rune artifacts behind him instantly adjusted their angles, all targeting the area below where the Yin energy was most concentrated.

Jemin even used the same technique he used when fighting the level three lava giant, using the Five Elements Rainbow Mirror to assist him and concentrate all his attacks into one point.

Thousands of talismanic artifacts erupted simultaneously, no longer bombarding in a scattered manner, but focusing on a single point, forming thick pillars of energy powerful enough to destroy mountains, like divine punishment descending from the heavens, slamming heavily onto the frozen earth below!

A more concentrated and thicker beam of destructive light than ever before, carrying terrifying power capable of piercing mountains, slammed down on the ruins below.

Boom, boom! ! !

The city was trembling—no, the entire ice pit, and even the distant ice plains, were trembling violently under Jemin's terrifying saturation bombardment!

The violent energy tore through the hard permafrost and bedrock at the speed of light, the glacier cracked open with huge ravines, and the thick ice layer vaporized instantly under the impact of the high temperature, emitting a deafening roar.

Countless shattered rocks and ice fragments were thrown hundreds of meters into the air, flying like a torrential rain.

The earth wailed, and the glacier was blasted open with bottomless cracks.

Jemin hovered in the air, his eyes calm.

His "Great Light Phase" was operating at full power, and every energy blast hit the designated area with perfect accuracy, without any waste.

As the bombing continued, a huge crater, hundreds of meters in diameter, was visibly extending downwards at an alarming rate!

The resulting shockwave almost completely emptied the surrounding air, creating a huge energy vortex.

He bombarded the area for nearly ten minutes, consuming most of the energy stored in a "metal disc".

When Jemin finally sensed that the rock layer below was no longer so solid and that the energy beam encountered a resistance similar to a "cavity," he slowly withdrew the flames of the "Great Light Phase."

A bottomless, irregularly shaped hole now appeared before him, its depth immeasurable, its lower end obscured by churned rubble and billowing dust.

Jemin took a deep breath, first turning off the magic network terminal on his body, then stuffing it into his internal space to ensure that it could not detect anything happening outside.

After doing all this, raise both hands, nimbly twist your fingertips into hand seals, and silently recite incantations.

He mobilized the pure true essence of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage within his body like a flood, continuously pouring it into the hand seals, causing each hand seal to emit a faint white light.

These vital energies eventually condensed into a profound "attracting evil" medium talisman, which slowly formed at the fingertips.

"go with!"

With a soft shout, Jemin suddenly shot the talisman, imbued with true energy, into the deep pit!
The talisman trailed a white path, flashed and disappeared, quickly plunging into the cold and deep darkness.

This technique is one of the methods for gathering evil spirits, specifically designed to deal with "basic conceptual materials" such as yin evil energy.

The "primary" in this name is not a level, but a "sequence," corresponding to "secondary conceptual material."

If spiritual power is "electricity", then "secondary conceptual materials" such as refined gold, mortal energy, and dew of a hundred flowers are "light" or "mechanical energy" produced by "electricity".

The creation of these secondary conceptual materials requires the participation of spiritual energy. Although it can increase the variety of resources to some extent, it is indeed inseparable from the presence of spiritual energy.

"Primary conceptual materials" are roughly similar to coal and solar energy.

These things are not spiritual energy in essence, but they can be transformed into spiritual energy through various methods.

These conceptual materials were created to solve the problem of insufficient spiritual energy, so their biggest feature is that they can generate themselves and create something from nothing.

These things do not necessarily require the involvement of spiritual energy in their creation process; all that is needed is a "catalyst".

For example, with this Yin Sha Qi, as long as the various conceptual conditions are met, under normal circumstances, a cultivator only needs to send out a wisp of the same Yin Sha Qi as a catalyst, and the remaining Yin Sha Qi that meets the conditions will automatically condense.

Of course, if there is no catalyst, the spiritual energy can be "edited" into the catalyst needed—that is, the so-called "attracting evil spirits" technique.

A moment of deathly silence fell over the deep pit... Then, a chilling aura suddenly erupted from the bottomless tunnel!

laugh! ! !
A dense, almost solidified, malevolent aura, like a black torrent bursting its banks, gushed upwards from the bottom of the pit like a fountain, carrying a chilling cold and an indescribable, foul stench!

They moved at incredible speed, instantly filling the entire crater and even bursting out of the crater's opening, creating a pervasive gray mist over the surrounding ice plains.

Ignoring the emptiness and slight dizziness that came from the loss of most of his true energy in one go, Jieming ignored the feeling of emptiness and slight dizziness.

A gleam of joy flashed in his eyes, and he immediately summoned the "Evil-Gathering Gourd," a magical artifact specifically designed to collect Yin energy, from his inner space.

He made a hand seal and placed the gourd upside down, vertically blocking the entrance to the hole.

The gourd's mouth seemed to transform into a bottomless black hole, emitting a buzzing suction force that collected every last bit of the surging Yin energy.

When he first started collecting them, seeing the ever-increasing reserves of the Gourd of Gathering Evil almost visibly growing filled Jemin with joy.

He knew he had struck gold!
As time went on, he became increasingly happy, even ecstatic, because the absorption rate of the Gourd of Gathering Evil hardly slowed down!

But when he discovered that the Yin energy was still surging up from the cave entrance, reaching a theoretically unimaginable amount in just a few minutes, Jemin's expression gradually changed from ecstatic joy to horror!
He was shocked to discover that as the collection time went on, the amount of Yin energy not only did not decrease at all, but was also gradually increasing in speed, accompanied by a kind of low pulsation coming from the depths of the earth!
Moreover, what truly chilled him to the bone was that the quality of these Yin and evil energies was increasing at an alarming rate!
They gradually transformed from their original grayish color into a bottomless pure black, as if they were a condensation of all the resentment and death in the world.

In the end, they even approached a deep black color, which meant that their quality had reached the pinnacle!

The gourd that theoretically had almost no capacity issues was now humming under its own weight, and the runes on its surface even showed signs of overload!
“Full…full?!” Jemin exclaimed in disbelief.

According to the information provided by the Great Dao Book Pavilion, this evil-gathering gourd can collect the total amount of evil energy generated when an entire continent's ecosystem is completely destroyed!
He had to take a break to mobilize the raw materials from his internal space and hurriedly made another temporary evil-gathering gourd with his other hand!

Although this makeshift gourd was simple, it could temporarily receive the constantly surging evil energy.

However, even though the two gourds and his own "Mysterious Red Dust Barrier" were instinctively devouring the surrounding Yin energy, the amount of energy surging out showed no signs of decreasing!

“This quantity is no longer a problem of the ancient battlefield…” Jemin’s mind quickly flashed through the intelligence in the Wizard Legion’s database.

Based on the information gathered by wizards through two years of investigation and archaeology, the known history of the Lava Giants and Yetis is only a little over 10,000 years!
Even if all the ancient battlefields of the entire Frostfire Plane were concentrated in this one area, it would be impossible for this level of Yin energy to produce such a terrifying effect!

"So! There must be an even bigger problem down there!" An irrepressible curiosity welled up in Jemin's heart!
Looking at the two gourds in his hands, whose storage capacity was once again nearing its limit, and the black evil energy that was still gushing upwards continuously.

Left with no other choice, Jemin could only mobilize his remaining true energy to cast a sealing spell.

Since it's impossible to collect them all, we can only temporarily block the source.

Otherwise, if this thing spreads, it will affect not only the Yeti's territory, but also the wizards' outposts.

He didn't conceal his whereabouts when he came here. If something is found out and someone comes to investigate, that would be a big problem!

Fortunately, Yin energy is inherently quite "inert".

Although the outbreak is terrifying, its spread and diffusion are relatively slow when no one is driving it.

Therefore, even a simple sealing spell would be enough to seal it.

As the talismanic seals lit up around the cave entrance, the surging Yin energy was finally suppressed, temporarily ceasing its outburst, leaving only wisps of it dissipating.

This level of spillover is perfectly acceptable; the natural ecosystem is capable of mitigating it before it causes greater negative impacts.

However, keeping it locked down like this isn't a good solution; we need to address the root cause.

Instead of rushing down, Jemin sat cross-legged and adjusted his breathing, allowing himself to fully recover from the slight exhaustion caused by the one-time depletion of most of his true energy.

He replenished his spiritual energy with some magic potion, allowing it to recharge.

Then, his eyes sharpened, and he leaped into the bottomless, chilling pit without hesitation!
Jemin's intuition told him that a huge secret, enough to shake the entire plane, was hidden beneath!

As soon as they entered the deep pit, a dense aura of malevolent energy enveloped them like a vengeful ghost.

With the "Mysterious Red Dust Barrier" protecting him, Jieming wasn't too worried that these wandering Yin Sha energies would have any substantial impact on him.

In a sense, these scattered, high-quality Yin energy will only become the best nourishment for the "Mysterious Gang Red Dust Barrier," nourishing its core Gang energy and further enhancing its defensive capabilities.
