Within the Dragon Phoenix Academy's Back Graveyard, a st.u.r.dy figure slowly walked out from the darkness. The figure was filled with a corrosive aura. Evidently, this was a corpse, one without any life left in it. Occupying this corpse was an evil spirit. It was an evil spirit at the cultivation level of late-stage Sovereign Realm, and it possessed a dreadfully sinister consciousness.
It had awakened from its slumber after sensing an aura filled with vitality. And without any hesitation, it had rushed straight to the outer fringe of the Back Graveyard. Before long, it appeared not far from Xiang Shaoyun's position. Its eye sockets were empty, with two clumps of radiance pulsing within them, looking incredibly eerie.
”What a young body. I finally have a chance at rebirth,” muttered the evil spirit in joy as it charged Xiang Shaoyun. But before it could even approach Xiang Shaoyun, the nether prison devil puppet attacked mercilessly and stopped it.
Unwilling to back off, the evil spirit clashed with the puppet. Evidently, the evil spirit was comparable to the puppet in strength. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun stopped cultivating and stood up. Looking at the battle, his face turned slightly solemn as he said, ”Is this a Sovereign Realm zombie? No, that doesn't seem to be the case.”
The corpse occupied by the evil spirit was not as st.u.r.dy as the puppet. After a short while of close combat, it was destroyed. The evil spirit ignored the corpse and flew out before pouncing at Xiang Shaoyun.
”Give your body up,” said the evil spirit as he charged toward Xiang Shaoyun's head.
Without any hesitation, Xiang Shaoyun activated Yun Flame's power. The moment the evil spirit approached, Yun Flame's power harmed it, causing it to quickly retreat in pain.
”d.a.m.n it! You actually have a flame of extreme yang? But that is not enough to stop me from taking over your body!” cursed the evil spirit before it fled.
A slight worry surfaced in Xiang Shaoyun's heart as he looked at the fleeing evil spirit. He did not dare to allow a high-level evil spirit like this into his Nether Soul Domain. Although the ghostrunes were the nemeses of evil spirits, he still feared that a mishap might happen. If the evil spirit ended up taking over his Nether Soul Domain, he would be in deep trouble.
Although the nether prison devil puppet was sufficiently powerful, it couldn't do anything toward these evil spirits that did not have physical bodies. After leaving, the evil spirit would definitely return prepared. That was the source of Xiang Shaoyun's worry.
”Forget it. It's not like I have any other options. I'll just have to face whatever it throws at me,” said Xiang Shaoyun to himself.
Before long, he found that a large number of skeletons were advancing toward him. One ought to know that these skeletons were supposed to only stay in their own territories. Now that they had all come here, it was clear this was the handiwork of that evil spirit. Furthermore, some of these skeletons could even fly. Each of the skeletons had traces of the evil spirit's soul power on them.
”Things are getting troublesome,” muttered Xiang Shaoyun, who started getting anxious.
Without any hesitation, he stored the three birds into his astral cosmos sea. It had been proven that the astral cosmos sea was capable of storing living beings. Money was living proof of that. He also did the same with the nether prison devil puppet.
