Chapter 445 - Chapter 445: Chapter 142: The Blood Corpse and the Eerie Yin Spirit (2/2)

“#@$＆*%＊, #@*＆%＊…”

“`

after waiting a while longer and seeing no movements from within the cave, the eerie spirit controlling the blood corpses began to lift its feet and then set them down…

imitating the sound of someone leaving…

moreover, the sound grew fainter and fainter, as if someone truly had left.

this eerie spirit was truly terrifying.

if one was not careful enough, they could easily fall victim to its tricks.

next, lin jing no longer paid attention to the few spirits outside his cave but controlled the observation mode to explore other areas.

after moving away from the vicinity of the cave, lin jing saw that the entire mountain was filled with a kind of red fog.

within the red fog, blood-red blood corpses occasionally passed by.

on top of the mountain, there were occasionally a few giant black stones, which seemed like kryptonite to the red fog; it simply could not approach the vicinity of the black stones.

even the blood corpses would intentionally bypass these black stones.

however, the blood corpses outside his cave showed no fear of the black stones and even dared to knock on them.

it seemed likely that they were controlled by the eerie black spirits, which is why they behaved in such a way.

then, lin jing controlled observation mode to survey the vicinity for quite a while…

during this time, he even saw blood corpses possessed by eerie spirits, walking with a staggering corpse towards the sea of blood.

the walking corpse’s clothes were tattered, its body covered with countless wounds, and some wounds were still bleeding profusely.

clearly, this person had been through a battle, but it seemed that they were no match for the walking corpse at all.

……

after observing, lin jing prepared to return the observation mode to check if the blood corpses at the entrance of his cave had left.

but just then, a pale red light suddenly appeared in the sky, shining down from above.

as the pale red light fell, the red fog that was scattered everywhere also dispersed with it.

lin jing turned the observation mode upward and saw that the thick red clouds parted to reveal a ‘moon’ emanating red light.

while it was called a moon, it truly wasn’t…

lin jing looked at the ‘moon,’ which resembled an eye that had opened, and at the moment, it was sweeping its gaze across the entire devouring spirit blood realm.

seeing this, lin jing’s brows knitted tightly, and he couldn’t help thinking to himself:

“what exactly is this devouring spirit blood realm, to be so eerie…”

“and that red eye in the sky, is it a cultivator or some other being?”

that blood-red eye seemed to be patrolling, constantly scanning the devouring spirit blood realm.

and with the eye’s motion, the red ‘moonlight’ also moved continuously…

after observing for a while and finding nothing else, lin jing controlled observation mode to return to the entrance of the cave.

upon returning to the cave, lin jing saw that the blood corpses at the entrance had still not left.

at that moment, the eerie spirit began to emit a string of strange syllables:

“＆@$,#@＆%＊#,＆$@%＊%@$…”

having spoken, the sound of falling stones followed, emanating from the spirit, as if someone were chiseling away at a giant rock.

then, lin jing exited observation mode, left the system space, and returned to the cave once more.

outside, the sound of stones ceaselessly falling continued.

if lin jing hadn’t witnessed the situation outside for himself, he might have thought that someone was really outside the cave, destroying his giant rock.

no wonder the black-robed elder had said that no matter what happens, one must not move the giant rock.

as for using divine sense…

given lin jing’s nascent soul stage divine sense, it was still susceptible to influence, which was telling…

if he were to use divine sense, he would certainly not escape either.

it might even be possible for his divine sense to be affected and controlled by the eerie spirit outside.

at that moment, the sound of falling stones ceased.

qi yuanshu’s voice came from outside again:

“lin daoyou…”

“i’m about to break through this giant rock; do you really need me to come in for you to believe?”

lin jing did not respond, but instead sat down cross-legged and resumed meditation.

then, qi yuanshu’s voice came again:

“fine, fine, fine…”

“if that’s how it is, then don’t blame me for turning hostile…”

“once i’m in, i’ll surely refine you.”

following that, the sound of digging at the stones resumed, and it became even clearer, as if someone was indeed about to break through the giant rock.

lin jing, however, remained calmly meditating, not heeding the outside world.

……

afterward, the eerie spirit kept trying various methods to tempt lin jing to leave the cave.

but lin jing simply acted as if it did not exist.

he paid no mind to everything that was happening outside.

only after experiencing these things did lin jing truly understand how dreadful the devouring spirit blood realm was.

moreover, he became even more cautious when dealing with those puppet cultivators.

because, those blood corpses and the eerie spirits could only lure the cultivators within the caves to move the giant rock themselves; they couldn’t truly destroy the black stone.

but the puppet cultivators were different, their puppets were capable of destroying the giant black stones.

and with the blood corpses and eerie spirits outside providing cover, he couldn’t extend his divine sense to discern the real from the fake.

he could only choose his cave further away from them.

that way, it would be easier to protect himself…
