Mortals' aspirations to cultivate immortality

Mian Gu Pass is the first fortress in the northeast of the area occupied by the Great Qin Empire.

Because of its important strategic significance, the Great Qin Empire assembled a large army to attack this place, and only occupied this place after paying the price of hundreds of thousands of soldiers’ deaths.

This place is the burial place of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, so it is named Maiming Gu Pass.

Because there are not many ghosts gathering in the direction of Maiming Gu Pass in recent years, and no major wars have occurred here, countless Great Qin cultivators have taken this direction as the main adventure place.

When Lin Yi and his companions arrived outside the Maiming Gu Pass, they saw a long queue outside the pass.

Fortunately, as a Jindan Zhenren, he can get preferential treatment wherever he goes.

Lin Yi and his companions came to the registration position for exiting the pass smoothly.

After the registrar recorded Lin Yi and his companions’ Great Qin jade talisman, he gave each of them a flare. He explained: "This is a special flare, which can be triggered when in danger, and can attract the attention of others within a thousand miles."

"I hope that you seniors can lend a hand when you encounter someone firing a flare outside the pass. If you encounter an invincible ghost, you seniors can also fire a flare. The Bone Burial Pass has a pet that can sense flares within a range of three thousand miles. If a flare is sensed within this range, a team will be sent out to support it."

Although these cultivators did not join the army, they were all Qin cultivators after all. Once a large number of ghosts gathered to attack the pass, these cultivators would also participate in guarding the pass.

Therefore, the Qin army treated everyone equally and did not want too many cultivators to die outside the pass.

"Okay."

Lin Yi nodded and put away the flare.

After leaving the Bone Burial Pass, the Yin Qi became more intense.

Under the cover of his divine consciousness, he could already detect some ghosts wandering in the wilderness.

However, they were all low-level ghosts, and Lin Yi had no intention of targeting them.

After sensing the density of Yin Qi, Lin Yi immediately chose the direction with the most dense Yin Qi, and ran in front with Huang Qianqian in his arms, followed by Zhao Bufan and Li Caiwei.

This time, he came to the Netherworld Ghost Cave mainly to gain experience, so he naturally went to the direction with dense Yin Qi, where there were more ghosts and higher levels.

Ghosts are different from the ghosts in the eyes of mortals. Ghosts are special creatures formed by the souls of living beings being contaminated by Yin Qi after death.

Ghosts are a kind of creatures born to absorb Yin Qi, similar to monsters, but monsters absorb spiritual energy to cultivate, while ghosts absorb Yin Qi to cultivate.

There is a saying that ghosts are actually creatures born and raised in the underworld.

Before coming to the Netherworld Ghost Cave, Lin Yi had come into contact with ghosts.

It was a late Jindan demon, which was considered a high-level ghost.

In this unknown land, flying in the air is a very unwise approach. Although Lin Yi, Zhao Bufan, and Li Caiwei all have breath-hiding treasures, and Huang Qianqian has the ability to hide her breath, there are many flying ghosts. Once they are discovered, it will be a bit troublesome.

Lin Yi and his team came to broaden their horizons, and they did have to fight a few battles with ghosts, but this did not mean that they were willing to fight with ghosts.

The ghosts near the Bone Burial Pass were only low-level ghosts after all, and as Lin Yi and his team got farther and farther away from the Bone Burial Pass, the level of the ghosts began to slowly increase.

Soon, Lin Yi and his team encountered the first ghost after entering the Nether Ghost Cave face to face.

It was a bone ghost without a flesh body, only bones and two balls of ghost fire burning in the eyes, and its strength was only equivalent to that of a cultivator in the middle stage of the Qi Refining Period.

Because Lin Yi and his team's breath was not revealed, the ghost did not know how powerful Lin Yi and his team were. After seeing Lin Yi and his team, it rushed towards Lin Yi and his team with its fangs and claws bared.

However, it was just a ghost in the middle stage of Qi Refining. In front of a Jindan cultivator, it was no different from an ant.

Lin Yi stretched out his hand and grabbed the ghost that flew towards him. He ignored the ghost's struggle and directly disassembled its bones.

Unexpectedly, the bones soon returned to the ghost.

"It seems that there is no physical connection, it is completely connected by magic power."

This kind of strange creature is the first time that Lin Yi has seen in his two hundred years of life. It is more outrageous than a zombie.

Huang Qianqian took a look at the ghost, disassembled its claws directly, and then sealed it with ice.

In this way, the bone claws seemed to have completely lost contact with the ghost, and the ghost roared with its teeth and claws.

"Interesting." Lin Yi disassembled the ghost directly until only the head was left, and then looked at Huang Qianqian: "Qianqian, freeze all these bones."

Huang Qianqian nodded, and a burst of cold air broke out, directly freezing all the bones.

The ghost with only its head left could not sense its body for a moment, and the two balls of ghost fire in its eyes dimmed a lot.

Seeing this, Lin Yi showed the Yin-Yang Pisces at his feet, and an extremely cold breath burst out from his body. The Yang attribute magic power was completely transformed into Yin attribute magic power.

After the magic power was transformed, a ball of dark green flame suddenly appeared in Lin Yi's hand. That was Lin Yi's Dan Fire. Unlike the Yang attribute Dan Fire that was extremely hot and seemed to burn everything, this Yin attribute Dan Fire looked a little weird. Even if they were very close, Zhao Bufan and the others did not feel much temperature.

Lin Yi tried to inject the Dan Fire into the ghost fire in the ghost's eyes.

Then, the ghost fire actually burned more violently than before.

"Sure enough, are things of Yin attribute connected?"

Lin Yi had just finished saying this when the two balls of ghost fire changed.

They burned more and more fiercely, and soon exceeded the limit that the bone head could bear. It was obviously the ghost's own ghost fire, but it actually burned through the ghost's head.

The poor ghost, without even a body, could not struggle at all, and died in such an unclear way.

And the two balls of ghost fire gradually dissipated after the ghost died.

Lin Yi didn't know what was going on with this phenomenon, and didn't know if it was useful to them. Anyway, just remember it first, maybe it could be used one day.

"Let's go."

Without caring about the remaining bones of the ghost, Lin Yi and his men continued to move forward.

However, this time Lin Yi did not use the hidden silkworm treasure clothes to hide his breath, nor did he use the skills to transform his magic power into yang attributes.

Since things with yin attributes are connected, Lin Yi will have to conduct another experiment.

Soon, they came to another ghost.

It is still a skeleton-like ghost, but this time the type of skeleton is much easier to identify, after all, it is a human skeleton.
