The spiritual energy was restored, and he became a mortal immortal in two days.

When Ye Li and the others arrived at the scene, the sight before them astonished them.

There was no dried corpse, no man drained dry, but instead, fragments of a coffin and unidentified charred ashes scattered on the ground.

A man wearing only boxer shorts was looking around in a daze, seemingly unaware of what had just happened.

The special agents who just gave the report seem a bit withdrawn; they're squatting on the ground washing their eyes.

Ye Li paused for a moment, then approached. "What exactly happened?"

"Captain Li, you might not believe it, but this fat guy actually drained the evil creature dry, and then, in a life-or-death situation, he opened up his sea of ​​consciousness!"

He went through all the trouble and risked his life on missions just to obtain some cultivation resources in an attempt to successfully open his sea of ​​consciousness.

The fat man in front of us, just by taking a nap, inexplicably crossed the chasm of ordinary people.

Who can I complain to about this?

No, my eyes hurt so much, I need to wash them again.

Ye Li's lips twitched a few times.

Li Taibai, on the other hand, looked at Wang Baole with an expression of appreciating a novel creature, marveling at him.

This fat guy is a real talent.

"Officer, what exactly is going on?"

Wang Baole snapped out of his daze and looked at the group of guys who had suddenly appeared, all of them armed to the teeth, and his expression immediately became tense.

"Don't move, just stand still and let me think."

Ye Li took a few steps back in fear. What had happened to this guy was truly eye-opening for her.

On the other side, the testing personnel from Lingtai Institute nodded to her after testing the black ash on the ground.

"Just as we suspected, it was the work of a vengeful spirit."

After a person dies, their resentment lingers and, after absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, will wander and harm people in the form of a spirit.

Given that this cemetery is located here, it's only natural that a few vengeful spirits would appear; there's nothing strange about it.

"But if it's the work of a vengeful spirit, it will only harm people and won't go outside to absorb a man's vital energy and blood." Li Taibai succinctly pointed out the crux of the problem.

Ye Li was startled: "You mean someone's pulling the strings behind this?"

"Very likely."

Li Bai's gaze swept around, full of vigilance.

next moment.

The fog in the cemetery suddenly thickened, surging in from all directions, and the fog was so thick that visibility instantly dropped to half a meter.

From within the mist came eerie and chilling screams, and hundreds of terrifying figures were running around in the mist.

"Everyone, be careful, stand back to back, and watch out for attacks from the vengeful spirits around us!" Ye Li's expression changed drastically, and she immediately gave the order.

"ah--"

Soon, a special agent screamed, followed by a horrifying chewing sound.

"No, the fog is too thick; we can't even see where the other side is."

In a moment of desperation, in order to save the person, Ye Li showed no mercy and suddenly drew out Yue Liushuang.

In an instant.

The moonlight poured down, like white frost covering the ground, and the power of the spirit sword emanated invisibly.

She focused her energy and, disregarding the fact that her spiritual energy was being drained, slashed her sword into the depths of the mist.

The sword energy, as cold as frost and thirty meters long, instantly cleaved the mist in front of them in two, and any vengeful spirits it touched were instantly reduced to ashes.

This is the power of the Spirit Sword!

With the Foundation Establishment realm, he displayed the strength of a half-step Golden Core cultivator.

However, just when everyone thought they were saved, the mist that had been split open reappeared and rolled in.

"What... what's going on here...?"

Am I dreaming?

"Taoist priests versus zombies, or a superhero battle? Who are you people?!"

Wang Baole stood to the side, completely terrified. Everything that was happening before his eyes was beyond his comprehension.

"Li Taibai, keep a close eye on him, don't let him out of your sight!"

Ye Li supported Yue Liushuang with her hands. A mournful cry came from her sea of ​​consciousness, and her spirit felt weak and exhausted. This was a sign of overexertion.

With his current level of cultivation, it was still too much of a stretch to activate Yue Liushuang; he could only unleash a fraction of the spirit sword's power.

Most importantly, she failed to refine Yue Liushuang and could not communicate with her completely.

"Hehehe!"

"Moon Frost truly lives up to its reputation as a spirit sword. You, a mere Foundation Establishment stage girl, were able to sever a corner of the Thousand Grudges Devouring Spirit Array. That's truly terrifying."

Within the mist, a ghostly figure suddenly materialized, its expression and appearance obscured, but its voice was ancient.

Behind him, hundreds and thousands of vengeful spirits were howling menacingly, ready to charge out at any moment.

"The Blood Fiend Venerable?"

Ye Li immediately recognized the other party's identity, and her expression suddenly turned ugly.

This person is a reincarnated demonic cultivator. In his previous life, he was at the Nascent Soul stage and once stirred up a bloody storm. He was a top figure in the era of swordsmanship.

Seven years ago, together with other elders of the Blood Soul Hall, they took advantage of Lingxiao's lack of time to slaughter several villages as a sacrifice.

"What schemes does your Blood Soul Hall have against Qingcheng?!" Ye Li gripped Yue Liushuang tightly, a chill rising in her heart.

"What do you think, little girl?"

The Blood Fiend Venerable smiled sinisterly, "The blood sacrifice seven years ago wasn't enough. Cultivation in this world is too slow now. I want to break through to the Golden Core stage as soon as possible."

"You're dreaming!"

"Even if I die, I will not let you succeed."

Ye Li's exquisite basin began to lose a little color. Despite overdrawing her energy and damaging her soul, she still wanted to continue to urge Yue Liushuang to work.

"Save your breath, you can't stop this old man."

boom!

The mist churned and suddenly turned blood red. A ferocious giant claw descended from the sky, pinning Ye Li firmly to the ground, rendering her unable to move.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you, I'll just trap you."

Blood Fiend Venerable smiled sarcastically, "I don't want Sword Venerable Pei to break through his cultivation prematurely and then hunt me down afterward."

"But all the people you brought will remain here to serve as fertilizer in my grave."

While they were talking.

With a flick of his robes, thousands of ferocious and vengeful spirits roared ferociously behind him, their gaping mouths stretching to their ears, charging forward like zombies.

The special agents looked terrified and tried to escape, but somehow sharp claws appeared out of the ground and firmly gripped their ankles.

Ye Li struggled frantically, even spitting blood, but she couldn't break free from the restraints, and even the Moon Frost in her hand fell to the ground.

Despair was evident on everyone's faces.

"It's all over, it's all over..."

"If I had known it would be like this, I would have preferred to be drained dry by the vengeful spirits and die."

Wang Baole was on the verge of tears. When did this world become so terrible?

"Stop crying, it's not time to die yet."

At this moment, Li Bai took a big gulp of wine and then took a step forward.

Being at the half-step Golden Core stage, I'm indeed finding it a bit difficult to fight right now.

But if you drink a few more sips of alcohol and get into the zone, you might just be able to fight back.

next moment.

He slowly raised his hand, and although there was no longsword between his fingers, a pure white sword aura, clear and unparalleled, as bright as the moon, slowly condensed.

Without wielding a long sword, one can naturally create a sword-like aura.

Blood Fiend Venerable realized something was wrong, and his expression gradually became serious.

"Have you not seen the Yellow River's waters come down from the sky—"

Before he could finish speaking...

A vast and boundless sword intent descended from the sky, surging and rushing forward!

"The river flows to the sea, never to return!"

The second line of the poem was completed, and the sword intent suddenly retracted and then exploded again!

The mighty sword intent of the great river, once restrained, condensed and transformed into a celestial river longsword that swept across the cemetery, and crashed down!

Boom!

The entire Thousand Grievance Devouring Spirit Array, from its core to its foundation, from its veins to its pillars, was completely shattered and utterly destroyed!

All the fog and all the vengeful spirits vanished completely.

"Such unrestrained and exquisite sword intent...you...who are you?"

The carefully arranged formation was broken, and Blood Fiend Venerable was both shocked and furious. This kid's sword intent had actually surpassed the Foundation Establishment Realm.

……

at the same time.

In the courtyard, Chen Xuan, who was washing up, suddenly stopped what he was doing.

He looked up and glanced at the Tai Xuan Sword, which was casually stuck in the ground. Suddenly, it hummed and emitted a sword's cry.

Actually, everyone got one thing wrong.

He was not the master of the Tai Xuan Sword, and had never refined it into his natal spirit sword.

On the contrary, once he realized that the way of swordsmanship had gone astray, he no longer needed to use a sword.

then.

On the day he destroyed the sword tomb, he casually tossed the Tai Xuan Sword into the sword pool, turning it into a sword seed.

Three hundred years later, someone inherited a sword in the Sword Tomb, comprehended the sword intent from the Tai Xuan Sword, and made quite a name for himself... His name seems to be Li Taibai.
