Chapter 297: Fierce Battle in the Demonic Abyss, Evil Spirit Bottle
Jin Lieyang said seriously, "How could that be? We, the Jinwu clan, have always valued credibility!"
"However, I did not say that I would give him the complete secret technique. I only wanted to give him the method of refining the dark energy and spiritual energy. This way, not only will he do free labor for us, but he will also have to beg us in the end."
This was Jin Lieyang’s plan, to use Chen An as a laborer while at the same time preventing Chen An from fully mastering the core secrets of the Jinwu clan.
Upon hearing this, the other Mahayana cultivators praised Jin Lieyang's good strategy, which could not only solve the immediate crisis, but also ensure that the interests of the Jinwu clan would not be harmed, thus killing two birds with one stone.
Jin Ming suddenly came up with a bold idea: "The output of Xuanming spiritual energy is not high now, why not work together with the cultivators of other forces?"
However, this proposal was opposed by most people: "Isn't this equivalent to making our secret technique public?"
Everyone shook their heads to express their disagreement, thinking that this was even less reliable than Jin Lieyang's previous idea.
At this moment, Jin Lieyang's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, and he obviously had a new idea: "We can only release the method of refining nether energy and spiritual energy, and modify it slightly to make this method heavily dependent on the Sun God Fire of the Golden Crow Clan."
“When the time comes, we can sell them the Sun God Fire and let them use the refined Nether Qi and Spiritual Qi to exchange for the Mysterious Nether Spiritual Qi. In this way, we can not only control the output of the Mysterious Nether Spiritual Qi, but also earn profits twice from it.”
After hearing this, all the Mahayana monks of the Golden Crow Clan were full of praise: "What a good plan! If this plan succeeds, I'm afraid the strength of our Golden Crow Clan will rise to a higher level again."
Jin Ming also agreed, "We can find a way to seal the Sun's Divine Fire into the talisman and turn it into a consumable spirit. This way, we can control the Divine Fire and the Mysterious Spiritual Energy from the source."
"Haha, you are still the bad one"
Jin Lieyang stroked his beard, his face glowing as he said, "We can proceed slowly. The most important thing right now is to expel the evil aura in the Blazing Flame Territory as quickly as possible. Let's concentrate our efforts on solving the problem at hand first."
After Qin Tianxing confirmed the decision of the Jinwu Clan, he immediately returned to the Ghost Realm and told Chen An the news that Jin Lieyang had agreed to this matter.
"Then Jin Lieyang has no other conditions?"
Chen An's voice was slightly doubtful. After all, a top force like the Golden Crow Clan would not easily be so generous, especially when they were clearly at a disadvantage.
Qin Tianxing shook his head and said, "No."
Chen An nodded slightly, and he felt relieved after thinking about it. Now the whole Chiyan Domain was shrouded in evil and foul air, and it was difficult to refine the dark energy. It would be strange if Jin Lieyang was not anxious.
Afterwards, Qin Tianxing told Chen An the information about the two Mahayana cultivators.
The two men were both Mahayana practitioners, one was named Heilin and the other was Guiqi, both were good at manipulating evil spirits.
The evil and foul aura that is now pervasive in the Fiery Domain is caused by these two people.
Finally, Qin Tianxing warned: "It is said that these two are very powerful, not inferior to Jin Lieyang, so be careful."
After hearing this, Chen An pondered for a long time, and finally nodded and said, "I understand. I will handle this matter. You go back first and call Huo Wu over."
Originally, Qin Tianxing planned to attack together with Chen An to kill the opponent together, but Chen An refused.
Qin Tianxing wanted to say something else, but then he remembered Chen An's strength in killing the Blood Soul Saint. He opened his mouth but said nothing more.
After Qin Tianxing left, Huo Wu came to Chen An through the space channel not long after.
She was dressed in red, with a heroic look in her eyes. She asked directly, "What's the matter with calling me here?"
Chen An didn't waste any words and directly asked Huo Wu about the information of Black Scale and Devil May Cry. Huo Wu thought for a moment and said, "They are indeed the Mahayana of the underworld, but I don't have much specific information about them. It's not much different from the Golden Crow Clan."
Chen An was a little surprised, but he didn't show it. He asked, "Then do you know where in the underworld there are a lot of evil spirits?"
Huo Wu thought for a moment and replied, "I remember that there is a forbidden area in the underworld called the Demonic Abyss. It is filled with extremely thick evil aura. I guess the evil aura in the Blazing Flame Realm is likely to come from there."
Chen An had already made up his mind after hearing this: "Where is the Demonic Abyss?"
Huo Wu explained: "The Demonic Abyss is located at the southernmost end of the Nanming Land. It is an area shrouded in darkness. Even Mahayana cultivators rarely set foot there because the evil aura there will have a corrosive effect on most living beings, even Mahayana cultivators are no exception."
After a deep communication between the two, Chen An had a better understanding of the underworld. He did not expect that there was such a place in the underworld.
After hearing this, Chen An let Huo Wu leave on her own and decided to go to the Demonic Abyss to investigate personally.
After the other party left, he walked out of the valley and headed straight south.
On the outskirts of the Blazing Domain, at the edge of the boundless evil and foul air.
Hei Lin and Devil May Cry stood side by side outside the Blazing Domain, looking at the land that was completely shrouded in evil and foul air, both of them showing satisfied smiles on their faces.
The evil and foul air was like an endless darkness, wrapping the Fiery Domain tightly, as if not even a ray of light could penetrate it.
"Yin and Yang counteract each other. You can use the evil and foul energy to surround the spirits in the Xiuxian world without any soldiers. It's worth the effort you and I have put in."
Hei Lin's voice was low and powerful, revealing a hint of pride.
Ghost Cry on the side sneered, with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "It's a pity that the Blood Soul Saint died here, but it didn't cause much damage to the Blazing Flame Domain."
Hei Lin nodded slightly: "You and I will use the evil spirit to contain the Mahayana cultivators in the Immortal Cultivation World. In this way, Wu Shi's side will be completely safe."
The two were very proud of their methods.
At this moment, Devil May Cry's gaze suddenly turned to the depths of the Blazing Domain, and saw ten golden light balls rising slowly, like ten little suns, emitting dazzling light.
Wherever these golden balls of light passed, the evil aura dissipated as quickly as melting ice and snow.
Ghost Cry looked stern and said angrily: "This group of Golden Crows is really difficult to deal with!"
That was the secret technique of the Golden Crow Clan, the Ten Suns Flying in the Sky. This technique had a great inhibitory effect on evil spirits. Over the years, the two sides had been battling wits and courage, and neither had gained much advantage.
However, the evil aura is too huge. As long as they replenish it in time, there is no chance of winning unless the Sun City is in the air for a hundred days.
Devil May Cry took out a simple black jade plate from his storage bag. It was engraved with countless fine runes and exuded a cold aura.
Devil May Cry injected his spiritual power into it, and a flash of light appeared on the black jade plate, which instantly transformed into a huge vortex of black mist, continuously releasing a thick, evil and foul aura.
This evil aura carried a suffocating coldness as it spread toward the depths of the Fiery Domain, colliding with the light emitted by those golden light balls, making a "hissing" sound.
Although the evil and foul energy was at a slight disadvantage in the confrontation, with the continuous replenishment of power, the two gradually reached a balance.
Then, Devil May Cry turned his head and looked at Black Scale: "Don't just stand there, release the evil aura quickly!"
Hei Lin showed a trace of embarrassment and said, "I have used up all the energy here. I have to go to the South Sea to replenish it."
Since Hei Lin was a little more skilled in controlling the evil and foul energy, he was the one doing most of the hard work in the previous encounters, and the evil and foul energy in his body was naturally consumed faster.
Devil May Cry was also aware of this and said, "I still have a lot here, it should be able to last for a while, you go quickly and come back soon." After the two of them talked, Black Scale said no more, but clicked repeatedly nearby, and a teleportation array appeared not far away.
As a large amount of Nether Stones were thrown into the formation, the teleportation formation emitted a dazzling light. As the space twisted, Hei Lin's figure flashed and disappeared into the teleportation formation, leaving only a residual image.
When he appeared again, Hei Lin was already deep in the edge of the Nanming Land, which was one of the places with the most concentrated evil aura and also the best place to replenish strength.
In order to prevent the teleportation array from being corroded by the escaping evil spirits, it was not built too close to the depths of the Nanming Sea.
Immediately, Hei Lin did not stay for too long and immediately headed south, heading towards the depths of the Nanming Sea.
The next moment after Heilin left, Chen An's figure suddenly appeared nearby. His eyes stayed on Heilin for a moment, and he was slightly surprised.
Could this person be one of the two meditation practitioners?
According to Qin Tianxing's previous news, the two people were still staying near the Fiery Domain before he set off, while he was riding a Flowing Winged Horse and traveling at full speed, his speed far exceeding that of ordinary Mahayana cultivators.
Even so, it still took him three full years to get here. Who would have thought that this person's speed was even faster than his?
The next moment, Chen An felt the residual space fluctuations nearby, and then he suddenly realized that this person was using a teleportation array. No wonder he could reach the South Sea so quickly.
He smiled lightly, then followed the other person's pace and continued forward.
Chen An followed Hei Lin's tracks and tracked south for a month before finally arriving at the location of the evil and foul air.
At this time, they were already quite far away from the teleportation array, and the scene in front of him made Chen An's heart tighten.
In the distance is a desolate area filled with evil spirits, and the air here is filled with a creepy atmosphere.
Looking around, the entire area seemed to be shrouded in a thick black fog, and even the monks with profound cultivation could not help but feel terrified.
In this evil place, one can occasionally hear some strange noises, as if some evil and powerful being is lurking in it, which makes people shudder.
Chen An restrained his breath and approached cautiously.
At this moment, Hei Lin was seen holding a bottle engraved with strange patterns, trying to absorb the evil and foul air around him.
Hei Lin's movements were extremely cautious. He carefully opened the lid of the Netherworld Bottle. Circles of light purple light emanated from the mouth of the bottle, slowly sucking the surrounding evil air into the bottle.
Just as he was concentrating on absorbing the evil and foul air, he suddenly noticed someone nearby. He immediately became alert and quickly turned the Netherworld Bottle around, with the mouth of the bottle facing outwards, and held it in front of him as a defense.
Chen An was slightly surprised when he saw this. He was about to take action when the other party noticed him. It seemed that this person's spiritual awareness was not inferior to his at all.
He immediately stopped pretending and showed up and asked, "Are you Black Scale or Devil May Cry?"
Seeing that Chen An was not a dark cultivator, Hei Lin was surprised and said, "A cultivator from the world of immortal cultivation? The Blazing Flame Territory is shrouded in endless evil and foul aura, and I didn't expect that there are still fish that slip through the net."
Then, he simply took action and took the initiative to attack Chen An.
The next moment, Hei Lin's figure appeared in front of Chen An like a ghost. Black air was surrounding him, which instantly spread out and turned into countless black shadows that pounced towards Chen An.
Chen An's body shook, his feet stepped on the void, and he easily avoided the first wave of attack from Hei Lin.
He smiled lightly and made a gesture with his hands. Then, a mountain shining with golden light appeared out of thin air. The mountain contained a heavy earth element power, which suppressed Hei Lin.
When the golden Tuji Mountain appeared, the sky and the earth changed color. The air around it seemed to be compressed and solidified. When the mountain fell, the ground shook.
Hei Lin had to use a small bell to resist. The small bell collided with the mountain, making a deafening sound, but Hei Lin did not retreat even a single step.
Hei Lin sneered: "You think you can defeat me with this little trick?"
The small bell in his hand shone so brightly that it actually bounced back the golden light from the Tu Ji Mountain. Chen An was slightly startled, then attacked again.
"out!"
Chen An shouted, and saw a blood-red gourd appear above his head. Blood-colored threads spurted out of the gourd and went straight to Hei Lin.
The Blood Soul Gourd is a mysterious treasure obtained from the Blood Soul Saint Ancestor. It is extremely powerful. At the moment it is activated by Chen An, countless blood-colored threads pounce on Black Scale like poisonous snakes.
Heilin did not dare to be careless. He condensed the black energy in his hand into a long whip, and as he swung it, he began to entangle with the blood-colored silk thread.
While fighting, Hei Lin shouted angrily: "Ten Thousand Ice Soul Lock!"
He just clasped his hands together, and the black air around him was mixed with traces of icy power, which turned into an ice wall blocking in front of him and freezing all the blood-red flames.
Chen An frowned slightly. He found that the other party's spiritual sense was indeed very strong, even slightly stronger than his. He sighed in his heart, it seems that this battle is far from as simple as he imagined.
As time went by, the fierce battle between the two men reached a white-hot stage, and the confrontation between the two sides made the space turbulent.
Although Chen An has gained the upper hand, it is not easy to defeat the opponent completely.
However, Black Scale's methods are endless, and his spiritual awareness is so strong that Chen An feels unprecedented pressure.
Chen An's eyes flashed with brilliance. He took a deep breath and decided not to hold back his strength anymore.
"Dharma form, appear!"
Chen An muttered something, and a shadow appeared behind him. It expanded instantly and turned into a golden demon god with three heads and six arms. The six arms were different colors with subtle differences.
As the golden demon god's form appeared, the sky and the earth changed color, and every move of Chen An contained destructive power.
The power of fire is as hot as the sun, the power of thunder and lightning tears the sky, the power of ice freezes everything, the power of the storm sweeps across the sky and the earth, the power of mind captures the soul, and the power of gravity oppresses all things.
Chen An waved his arm, and balls of blazing flames burst out from his palm, turning into fire dragons rushing towards Black Scale.
Wherever the fire dragon passed, the void was distorted and became extremely hot, as if even the space was about to be burned to ashes.
Hei Lin snorted coldly, and the black mist in his hand condensed and transformed into a bottle covered with patterns, with the mouth of the bottle facing the sky. A powerful suction force swallowed up Chen An's fire dragon.
"Evil spirit bottle, collect!"
Hei Lin let out a low roar, and the black mist in the bottle churned, sucking all the flames into it.
He sneered and said, "You still want to kill me with such a small trick?"
Then his figure flashed and he flew high into the sky. He held a black knife in his hand and swung it down. Black blade lights cut through the sky like meteors and attacked Chen An.
