Chapter 77: Mysterious Yin Formation

  In the midst of chaos, everywhere is a battlefield. At this time, heaven and earth have become a doomed trend. Even if you want to stay far away from the central area, hiding in the periphery, you will still be under the wheel of fate, fighting for survival amidst doom.

  Whether you like it or not.

  Xuanyin Sanzi still hasn't figured it out to this day, he was cultivating peacefully and stably, pursuing the Tao in his heart. How could a thief suddenly appear out of thin air and steal his certification artifact?

  This thief is hateful, what's even more hateful is that he has made himself an enemy for no reason.

  Xuanyin Sanzi said: "Xuanyin one change, yinfeng nuhao". The huge hand of the gathering heaven and earth yin energy was constantly changing its spell, the howling dragon whirlwind transformed into a black dragon, surrounding the scattered soul-gathering array emitting a ball of black air, a fierce impact.

  In the Soul Banner, souls let out mournful howls one by one, perhaps because they were too weak. As soon as they revealed their heads, they were torn into pieces by the wind blades spat out by the Black Dragon. Endless coldness pressed down on them, causing the black clouds that gathered the Soul Banners to continuously shrink inward. The souls in the black clouds let out mournful wails one by one, shouting and howling.

  The black dragon opened its mouth and swallowed the black cloud that was gathering towards the Soul Flag. Eight black wind dragons, distributed in eight directions, faced the Extreme Yin True Person's Soul Flag, constantly spitting out wind blades and devouring them.

  Extremely gloomy, the true person's heart cried out in dismay. This soul-gathering banner was a rare treasure that could gather souls and calm the mind, but when it encountered this wind dragon condensed by magic, it seemed to be far inferior. Moreover, the tearing force of this yin wind was so strong that even souls could be strangled to death. Now, even the soul banner's ability to absorb and expel yin energy was restricted.

  It's infuriating.

  The extremely gloomy true person complained endlessly, but had no choice but to operate the soul flag and strengthen its defense.

  A dark and gloomy soul banner, in the surroundings of the Extreme Yin True Person, floating dust, a group of black clouds mixed with ghosts, changing shape in mid-air, but not daring to fight against that wind dragon. The Extreme Yin True Person secretly felt frustrated in his heart, only able to put on a pretentious appearance.

  A black dragon let out a loud roar, spewing out whirlwinds of dark air that converged on the dark clouds gathered around Soul Banner. The dark clouds wobbled in mid-air, showing signs of being blown away. Seizing the opportunity, the black dragon charged at the light shield surrounding Soul Banner with great force. Its tail whipped back and forth ceaselessly. Wave after wave of fierce attacks came crashing down, striking Extreme Yin True Person with a feeling of being battered millions of times. Amidst this intangible assault, there was a sensation of his bones and flesh separating, and his mind was shaken to its core.

  Then eighty-one Soul- Gathering Banners, instantly half of them collapsed and turned into black gas, and the souls that were being held captive, were even more so shattered into fragments during the attack.

  Helpless and extremely gloomy, the real person took out the stolen Yin-gathering bottle, spat out a mouthful of vital energy towards the heavenly bottle, and the Yin-gathering bottle flashed with black strange colors, part of its powerful energy was actually forcibly opened by him.

  That dark bottle was like an invincible black hole, swallowing the dark energy that attacked from all directions. The ferocious black dragon was also temporarily suppressed.

  Xuanyinzi saw the extreme yin true person and finally took out the soul-gathering bottle, shouting loudly: "Shameless old demon, even the stolen treasure is used. See what other tricks you have."

  Tian Yinzi was overjoyed at the sight, and hastily chanted an incantation to try and summon back his companion spirit treasure. However, a strange and powerful force suppressed his soul-gathering vase. In his heart, he cursed: "This shameless guy actually has such a move."

  Even the extremely evil true person didn't have it easy, his primordial spirit had a splitting headache, suffering was extreme, and having his soul flag destroyed almost made him lose a layer of cultivation. With the soul power provided by this soul flag, he at least wasn't afraid of spiritual energy consumption. Now forcibly spitting out his vital energy and forcibly refining the Soul Gathering Bottle, he suffered no small amount of damage.

  The other party is still eyeing me covetously, definitely having more powerful killing moves in store. I can only temporarily calm my floating primordial spirit and gaze at the Soul Gathering Bottle jumping about in my hand, thinking to myself: "My extremely yin body has a natural restraining power over the world's yin energy, or else how could I have easily stolen it away? If I can gather all three of the Heaven, Earth, and Man bottles, humph, I'll be able to go wherever I please in heaven and on earth."

  Tianyin Zi saw his own Lingbao being suppressed by the opponent, and the yin energy between heaven and earth was also temporarily restrained. He hastily said: "Xuanyin again changes, Yinsha bites the sky." Suddenly, a grayish-black palm appeared in mid-air, its fingers fluttering as it changed according to certain rules. In an instant, the colors of the sky and earth changed, countless yin energies stirred, and endless dark winds howled.

  The black dragon besieging the extremely yin person suddenly dissipated and transformed into endless black air, as if it was absorbed by the mysterious yin array.

  The yin energy between heaven and earth seemed to disappear instantly, leaving only a huge hand that could cover the sky and earth stretching across the edge of the vast wilderness. The big hand spat out clusters of black cloud-like mist, which quickly condensed in mid-air, twisted and transformed into dark shadows with human shapes.

  This dark shadow is the yin evil, which has a slight consciousness and can actively attack. This kind of attack is invisible and intangible, and can penetrate the spiritual defense layer of the cultivator, even the power of ordinary arrays. The yin evil can devour the cultivator's spiritual energy, especially that extremely poisonous yin evil force can freeze the opponent's primordial spirit.

  A mass of dark energy surged towards the Extreme Yin True Person, and in an instant, the opponent was surrounded by a vast expanse of dark clouds.

  Ji Yin Zhen Ren's heart was filled with trepidation, and he hastily summoned a wooden whip. The entire thing resembled a withered tree branch, but only the strange patterns on its surface revealed that it was no ordinary branch. Ji Yin Zhen Ren quickly infused the remaining spiritual energy within him into the wooden whip, and the withered branch suddenly radiated a brilliant light. On its surface, insects, fish, birds, beasts, flowers, grasses, and trees seemed to come alive, emitting an otherworldly glow that could capture one's soul.

  The extremely evil true person held the wooden whip in mid-air, forming a circle of strange light, which made it impossible for the evil spirits to approach. However, as the wooden whip rotated, countless evil spirits enveloped by the light circle transformed into yin energy.

  Xuan Yin's three sons stirred in their hearts, this old thief still had such a rare treasure, and was able to steadily restrain his own dark energy. The large hand changed its incantation, producing even more dark energy out of thin air, each one rushing towards the opponent in a frenzy. Although they feared the light ring formed by the wooden whip like a tiger, they still charged forward with reckless abandon.

  Ji Yin felt a sense of helplessness in his heart, this wooden whip stolen from the Peach Wood Demon was effective against yin spirits and ghostly souls, but it was too spirit-draining, by the time his own spirit energy was depleted, these yin evils would not hesitate to devour him completely.

  These dark energies swarmed to life, wandering in this narrow space. Probably the breath of heaven's creatures attracted them, and many dark energies turned to attack Heaven instead. The three sons of Xuan Yin hastened to control the formation, strengthening their control over the dark energies. Some young hot-heads still charged towards Heaven, perhaps a deliberate test by the three men.

  He gazed coldly at the approaching yin evil, let out a cold snort, and released a vast killing aura. A pair of bat wings stretched out behind him, and with a light flap, a circle of invisible ripples suddenly appeared in the air. Wherever the ripples passed, the yin evil was instantly annihilated, its consciousness shattered, and it transformed into threads of dark energy.

  The three Xuan Yin were shocked by the other party's strength, which exceeded their expectations. Since the other party did not intervene, it was better not to provoke them. The three fell silent and focused all their energy on controlling the dark aura to attack Ji Yin Zhen Ren.

  The extremely gloomy person stared at the bat wing that suddenly appeared, feeling as if he had seen it before or had a memory of it. Where exactly did he see it? It seemed like his turning point was right here.

  What's wrong with me? How could I forget something so important?

  Yin evil is constantly consuming its own spiritual power, the light circle formed by the wooden whip is getting smaller and fainter, and it seems to be on the verge of being overwhelmed by yin evil.

  Where was it? Where did I see it after all?

  Seeing himself about to become the food in the mouth of the dark, fleshy bat wings, those bat wings, on which there was a pattern of demons, a ferocious single-horned demon.

  That's right, the master had me follow a man named Devil, and it was him.

  The extremely gloomy person seemed to have grabbed a lifeline, and his entire being went crazy. He hastily shouted towards Lü Tian: "Master Uncle, save me! My master is the Nine-Headed Demon Lion; it was he who ordered me to follow you." As he spoke, he made an effort to transmit to Lü Tian the scenes of him being together with the Nine-Headed Demon Lion.

  He furrowed his brow, and that old lion somehow found such a weak guy. In fact, the cultivation of this extremely evil true person was not bad either, only one step away from entering the Great Luo realm, but he was pursued and killed all the way, and at least seven or eight people were beheaded, and his spiritual power was also consumed by more than 70%. If it weren't for the Soul-Recovery Flag providing soul power recovery, he would have been skinned alive long ago.

  With a wave of his hand, a mass of killing intent suddenly appeared in the sky, enveloping the Extreme Yin True Person. Those yin evil spirits saw their food being rescued by someone else and immediately became furious, rushing towards the killing intent cloud with a howl.

  The killing aura cloud was being consumed bit by bit, but still withstood the attack of the evil spirit.

  He grasped the worn-out wooden whip with one hand, and his mind stirred as he infused it with spiritual energy. The wooden whip instantly transformed its appearance, emitting dazzling golden light. The patterns on the whip's body changed, seemingly moving in harmony with heaven and earth, projecting different patterns of flowers, grass, insects, and fish into the air. Boundless golden light pierced through the gloomy sky, giving the entire world a sense of sudden clarity.

  Those dark energies seemed to have seen the heavens and earth, and suddenly let out a series of shrill cries, ghostly howls, constantly retreating, fleeing and hiding in that profound yin array.

  The whip shadow fell, and the evil spirit that had not had time to hide was instantly transformed into a vast expanse of dark energy. The evil spirit dissipated completely, and the sky and earth were once again clear and clean.

  The whip shadow went with undiminished momentum, attacking the mysterious yin array, golden aurora, accompanied by boundless power.

  Xuanyin Sanzi saw the situation and hastily changed the formation, shouting: "Xuanyin Sanbian, Xuanyin Zhetian"

  That dark, gigantic hand covering the sky quickly condensed and transformed, with yin energy condensing into black scales, like a beast's hand covered in black scales. The dark, gigantic hand clenched its fist and fiercely smashed towards the sky, unleashing an unmatched surge of fist energy that howled.

  "Crack"

  The golden sky was suddenly cracked with a series of fissures, and the endless power of heaven and earth was instantly blocked.

  A loud shout burst from his mouth, the light on the wooden whip grew even more dazzling as it slashed towards that black giant hand.

  However, just as Whip Shadow was about to slash down on the giant hand, the hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed at Whip Shadow instead.

  "Psst..."

  A crisp sound echoed far away in the sky, like the thunderous roar of an ancient giant bell that shook the soul.

  The whip shadow condensed from the golden light of heaven and earth was actually grasped in this beast's hand, beginning to crack and shatter.
