I, a centenarian, sweep through the gates of immortality.

Lin Feng frowned and asked in confusion.

"Ghost Realm? Judging from the name, it doesn't seem like a sect. Is there anything special about it? Why are you so afraid?"

The sect leader hesitated for a moment, seemingly unwilling to tell Lin Feng the truth.

Seeing this, Lin Feng silently drew his dragon-patterned black gold sword.

Under the threat of death, the sect leader had no choice but to reluctantly explain.

"The Ghost Realm is the refuge of many powerful figures from the demonic sects when their life force is waning."

"It is said that these powerful figures of the demonic sect have already reached the level of gods, but their bodies are extremely decayed and they look like ghosts. In addition, there are so many of them that the whole area is like a ghost realm, hence the name."

After listening to the other party's explanation, Lin Feng pondered for a moment and then asked a question in return.

"Should we simply ignore the reputable sects here?"

"With remnants of the demonic sect running rampant, why aren't the righteous sects here coming to wipe them out?"

Lin Feng had dealt with those prestigious sects before. Although they were constantly scheming against each other and even used rather dirty methods, they still maintained a facade of benevolence and morality.

Within the sphere of influence of reputable sects, the rampant activities of the demonic sects are extremely shameful, and they should intervene to stop them.

The sect leader sighed and smiled bitterly.

"In other states, these demonic sects would naturally have no room to survive, but here, the situation is different."

"There is a spring here. The water that gushes out is icy cold, yet it contains endless spiritual energy. Those demonic sects rely on this spring to survive."

"Legend has it that this spring leads directly to the Netherworld, and is virtually inexhaustible. The Yin energy it contains is a great tonic for those demonic sects. The righteous sects have come to sweep through it many times, and although they have not returned empty-handed, they have been unable to completely wipe out those demonic sects."

"Over time, those prestigious sects seemed to realize that as long as the Yellow Springs existed, the Demonic Sect could not be eradicated, so they simply stopped caring about it."

"And the Ghost Realm is that large area covered by the Yellow Springs."

At this point, the sect leader picked up the talisman given to him by Lin Feng, examined it carefully for a moment, and said with an incredulous expression.

"It's really strange. The powerful demonic cultivators in this ghost realm are all in a state of remnant spirits. Normally, they wouldn't leave so easily."

"How could they possibly risk their lives to capture your friend? The risk is far too great."

Lin Feng thought so too, because Liu Qingqing's talent was nothing special, and she didn't have any treasures on her, so how could she possibly attract the covetousness of those powerful figures from the demonic sects?

But the other party still managed to arrest him.

Just as Lin Feng was racking his brains trying to figure it out, a sudden inspiration struck him, and he thought of something.

The first time he met Yan Shiyuan, the other party had been captured by the Demonic Sect, and the Demonic Sect made it very clear that Yan Shiyuan had an innate evil vein.

Could it be that the target of those powerful figures from the demonic sects was not Liu Qingqing, but Yan Shiyuan?

Lin Feng wasn't sure if his judgment was correct, but now that he knew the other party's background, he might as well go and find out.

Considering that this sect had provided Lin Feng with crucial intelligence, Lin Feng softened his attitude towards them considerably and did not make things difficult for them anymore. He even bowed to the sect leader.

"Thank you for the information."

The sect leader looked flattered and quickly returned the greeting.

"It was just a small favor, nothing to mention."

Lin Feng had no interest in continuing the pleasantries, so he led Yun Shu away.

Yun Shu also learned all the information and naturally understood the danger involved. She quickly tried to dissuade Lin Feng.

"Lin Feng, if the intelligence is true, then this trip will likely be extremely difficult."

"In that ghost realm, powerful figures from the demonic sect reside. Although they are all on their last legs, their Nascent Soul cultivation is still not to be underestimated. If you and I rashly enter, I am afraid we will be in grave danger."

Yun Shu wasn't afraid; she just wanted to make sure she was fully prepared before taking any action.

Lin Feng naturally agreed with this point, and he nodded and said.

"We can first explore the area around the Ghost Realm and get a feel for it."

"We'll go in after we've ascertained the truth."

Upon hearing this, Yun Shu agreed to Lin Feng's plan, and the two headed straight for the Ghost Realm.

As they drew closer to the Ghost Realm, the eerie and chilling spiritual energy grew stronger.

Under the influence of this spiritual energy, it is almost impossible for ordinary cultivators to cultivate.

"No wonder the cultivation levels of the sects here are generally low; so that's why."

"Such dense Yin energy is difficult for ordinary cultivators to resist, let alone cultivate."

"Yun Shu, no matter what happens next, don't go inside."

Yun Shu opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but Lin Feng interrupted her directly.

"Let's do as I say."

After saying that, Lin Feng continued to explore the vicinity of the Ghost Domain, trying to figure out the boundaries of the spiritual energy emanating from there, and whether there were any other demonic cultivators nearby.

This made it difficult for Lin Feng to capture a prisoner.

Unable to capture any prisoners, Lin Feng needed to go in himself to figure out the situation inside.

The area around the ghost realm was shrouded in mist, making it impossible for Lin Feng to see anything clearly. Even the spiritual energy he released was blocked by some special force.

In this situation, Lin Feng had almost no way of knowing whether it was safe inside.

"Ugh!"

Lin Feng took a deep breath and said helplessly.

"It seems I'll have to go in myself."

"Yun Shu, stay outside and keep watch. No matter what happens, don't go in."

Before Yun Shu could agree, Lin Feng took out a lot of pills from his storage bag, handed them to Yun Shu, and then entered the Ghost Realm without looking back.

Meanwhile, Liu Qingqing was also trapped in a fog.

At this moment, she felt her body floating up and down, and the penetrating spiritual energy was constantly seeping through her skin and eroding her meridians.

Under the influence of spiritual energy, within just one day, Liu Qingqing felt her mind becoming somewhat hazy, and she could no longer even distinguish between reality and dreams.

The only thing that kept her from closing her eyes, besides Lin Feng, was Yan Shiyuan.

Liu Qingqing murmured softly.

"Shiyuan...Lin Feng..."

Just then, a cold, eerie voice rang out.

"That Yan Shiyuan is your disciple."

"With such innate evil veins and such talent, wouldn't it be a waste for her to learn those orthodox cultivation techniques from you?"

"Perfect! Today I'll use your soul as a catalyst to completely lead her astray!"

Upon hearing the voice, Liu Qingqing instinctively tried to struggle, but she couldn't muster any strength.

"You! Who are you...?"
