705: In the ancient city, a mysterious coffin
As she approached the City gate, Yan Ruyi unleashed a palm strike at it.
Boom!
The palm print slammed into the City gate, which was shaken open, and a strange power instantly erupted from within.
“Roar!”
A series of piercing roars came from the City, and numerous Evil Spirits suddenly rushed out.
The Evil Spirits had blood-red eyes, were bloodthirsty and ferocious, roaring incessantly, and a terrifying pressure bore down on Yan Ruyi.
“…”
Yan Ruyi tapped her foot, retreating twenty meters. She steadied herself and calmly looked at the charging Evil Spirits.
She gripped her staff, holding it in front of her, and extended her other hand to grasp it.
Buzz!
Then, she pulled with both hands, and the staff flew from her grasp, instantly spinning. Black light flickered continuously, and the blood-colored gem at the staff’s end emitted a dazzling crimson glow, as a mysterious pressure awakened.
Boom!
Yan Ruyi’s eyes sharpened, and she suddenly gripped the staff, swiftly thrusting it into the ground.
The ground cracked, and the staff unleashed a blood-red pillar of destructive light, fiercely blasting towards the Evil Spirits.
The charging Evil Spirits were instantly pulverized by the blood-red light pillar, not even making a ripple.
However, there were still countless Evil Spirits in the City.
“Hmph!”
Yan Ruyi tightened her grip on the staff, and blood-red patterns appeared on her body. The staff’s pressure was extremely terrifying, seemingly capable of suppressing the Evil Spirits.
She took a step forward, and her might swept out. The Evil Spirits in the City retreated one after another, not daring to continue their charge.
Xie Weilou looked at Yan Ruyi and remarked, “Little Ruyi’s move just now was very cool. Your staff seems to be able to counter these Evil Spirits.”
A smug smile appeared on Yan Ruyi’s face: “These Evil Spirits are very difficult to kill because they have been tainted by some peculiar power. It just so happens that my staff can suppress that kind of power…”
Her staff was no ordinary item; the gem at its end was actually a three lives stone, which had a natural suppressive effect on Evil Spirits.
“Impressive.”
Xie Weilou gave a thumbs up.
“Enter the City.”
Yan Ruyi entered the City, holding her staff.
“…”
Xie Weilou followed with a smile.
Boom!
The moment they both entered the City, the City gate closed again.
“Roar!”
Dense swarms of Evil Spirits appeared in the City. There were hundreds of thousands of them, all staring ferociously at Xie Weilou and Yan Ruyi.
Yan Ruyi gripped her staff: “There are too many Evil Spirits here. My staff can’t completely deter them, but it can clear a path. Next, I’ll take you to a special place in the City.”
With that, she grabbed Xie Weilou’s wrist.
Whoosh!
Yan Ruyi immediately rushed forward with Xie Weilou. The surrounding Evil Spirits roared continuously but dared not approach easily, instead actively clearing a path.
After half an incense stick’s time.
Yan Ruyi led Xie Weilou to the center of the City, where the number of Evil Spirits was even greater, and their strength more terrifying.
In the center of the City was a ten-meter-high circular blood-red City wall, enclosing an inner area, and within that enclosure was a plaza.
The blood-red City wall had no gate, and numerous Evil Spirits were leaping over the wall to enter.
Yan Ruyi moved, taking Xie Weilou over the wall and onto the plaza.
This plaza was very peculiar, covered with many mysterious ancient formations, and eighteen blood-red pillars stood upright.
And in the very center of the plaza, there was a blood-red platform, on which rested a mysterious coffin, mottled with bronze rust.
The coffin was ancient and mysterious, covered with peculiar runes and totems, flickering with eerie light, and emanating a chilling aura.
At this moment, many Evil Spirits were approaching the coffin. These Evil Spirits were far more fierce and terrifying than those elsewhere.
As they neared the coffin, the coffin seemed to emit a devouring force. The Evil Spirits’ bodies gradually darkened, their aura continuously weakened, and they were ultimately completely swallowed by the coffin.
However, Evil Spirits still continuously approached the coffin, as if there was something in it that they coveted.
“Roar!”
Some of the surrounding Evil Spirits, seeing Xie Weilou and Yan Ruyi appear, immediately let out a roar and were about to charge.
Boom!
Yan Ruyi gripped her staff, and a terrifying pressure emanated from it.
The Evil Spirits were deterred by the staff’s pressure and immediately stopped, not launching an attack. They stared ferociously at Yan Ruyi and Xie Weilou, seemingly intending to test them.
“…”
Xie Weilou looked at the surrounding Evil Spirits. These Evil Spirits were not weak, but they were not as strong as the King of Evil Spirits in his ten thousand souls banner, so they were nothing to fear.
He then examined the bronze-mottled coffin, pondering, “This coffin is not simple; there’s likely a great fiend inside…”
Yan Ruyi said, “There’s a special layout here, so we can’t get close to that coffin. However, if we intercept Evil Spirits from the surroundings, there won’t be too much of a problem.”
The Evil Spirits they saw at this moment were merely the tip of the iceberg of the Evil Spirit Sea.
The Evil Spirits of the Evil Spirit Sea would never be completely wiped out; even if one batch after another was destroyed, countless Evil Spirits would still appear.
“Roar!”
Just then, several powerful Evil Spirits could no longer hold back and suddenly charged forward.
Yan Ruyi waved her staff, inserting it into the ground, and a blood-red light formed a shield, protecting them.
Boom!
Those Evil Spirits attacked the shield, and roars echoed, but they found it difficult to break through the shield.
Yan Ruyi said, “They won’t be able to break this shield in a short time. Let’s cultivate here! I will now transmit to you a cultivation method for refining Evil Spirits.”
She extended her hand towards Xie Weilou’s glabella, and a peculiar imprint entered his glabella.
“Spirit Devour?”
Xie Weilou was a little surprised.
The cultivation method Yan Ruyi transmitted was specifically aimed at soul bodies. With this method, one could devour and refine soul bodies to strengthen one’s own divine soul, making it a rather sinister technique.
Yan Ruyi said, “With this method, you can also refine some soul bodies. Let’s just start refining now.”
Rumble!
The Evil Spirits outside the blood-red shield were still continuously attacking, and roars kept echoing.
Xie Weilou glanced at the surrounding Evil Spirits: “They are too noisy, which is not conducive to our cultivation. I’ll make them quiet down.”
Boom!
He flicked his sleeve, and the ten thousand souls banner instantly flew out, a terrifying suppressive power erupting, covering the entire ancient City, directly suppressing the entire ancient City.
Within the ancient City, hundreds of thousands of Evil Spirits were instantly suppressed, unable to move at all.
The several powerful Evil Spirits outside the blood-red shield were also suppressed, completely quieting down.
Yan Ruyi saw the ten thousand souls banner that Xie Weilou had conjured. She quickly reacted, put her hands on her hips, and glared at Xie Weilou, saying, “Shameless, tricking me out of my cultivation method!”
This guy had the ten thousand souls banner, so he could naturally suppress and refine Evil Spirits. He had simply tricked her out of a cultivation method for nothing.
Xie Weilou reached out and gently stroked Yan Ruyi’s head: “Good girl!”
“Hmph! I don’t want to talk to you.”
Yan Ruyi walked to a good spot, holding her staff. With the ten thousand souls banner suppressing them, it was much simpler now, so she had to choose a good area to refine the Evil Spirits.
Xie Weilou smiled indifferently and walked to another position…
