Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 949
Chapter 949 Death Spirit Hunt
Only five people remained, no longer staying. This Spectral Forest had left a great shadow in their hearts, and they would never be able to free themselves from it for the rest of their lives.
They had already memorized Ye Feng’s appearance. When he was in the Asura King Fortress, Ye Feng took out nine avatars. His appearance was engraved in the minds of Fu Chong and the others. As long as Ye Feng could still come out of the Spirit Forest alive, they would be able to find out who Ye Feng was.
The remaining three Dead Spirits were extremely strange, constantly moving. Ye Feng’s Golden Spear-like Spear was unable to lock onto their auras, which made Ye Feng extremely angry.
“Kid, hold on for a while. The sky is about to light up. When the sky gets light, the dead will retreat. We’re trying to find a way to leave this damn place!”
Mu Bai sent a voice transmission to Ye Feng, telling him to hold on for a while.
After being provoked by the dead spirits, Ye Feng’s divine sense was often muddled. Even if his nerves relaxed a little, he might be able to take away his soul.
But very quickly, something that worried Ye Feng happened. Another group of white liquid approached. More dead souls discovered this place, wanting to devour the vitality in Ye Feng’s body.
“I can’t die. I just found my father. I can’t just die here!”
Ye Feng bit the tip of his tongue, and a surge of essence energy rushed straight into his soul sea. His divine sense became much clearer, and the bright flames on his body burned fiercely. Those death warrants did not dare to approach him.
With the passage of time, more and more dead souls gathered in the surroundings. Adding on the fact that the sky was about to brighten, those dead souls seemed to be unable to hold on and moved closer to Ye Feng.
“Brat, you shouldn’t stay here for long. If this continues, you will definitely be completely submerged by the dead. You don’t need the dead to eat your soul. You will also freeze to death!”
Seeing Ye Feng tremble, Mu Bai reminded Ye Feng to leave this place quickly.
Without another word, Ye Feng ran away, panicking and not choosing a path. Ye Feng basically did not know where to go. After choosing a good place, he moved forward quickly.
When Ye Feng escaped from this place, the dead souls behind him were like a white flood, closely following behind Ye Feng. Moreover, the number of dead souls was increasing, causing Ye Feng’s scalp to go numb.
Like a snowball, the dead spirits rolled more and more. Ye Feng was so tired that he was out of breath. The injuries on his body were just slightly better. He ran continuously, and some of his wounds began to crack, spilling out blood.
In order to survive, Ye Feng couldn’t care less. He ran desperately and continuously, wanting to get rid of those dead souls behind him.
He didn’t know how long he had run, nor where he was. Ye Feng only had one faith, to get rid of, to get rid of.
A layer of Artemisia argyi appeared in front of him. There was actually Artemisia argyi in this Ghost Forest. This was even more strange. Ye Feng had no choice but to directly pierce through the Artemisia argyi group.
However, something strange happened. When Ye Feng entered the Artemisia argyi group, the dead spirits floated around and didn’t dare to approach him. They seemed to be a little afraid of this place.
“Strange, why aren’t these dead souls chasing after us?”
Ye Feng had a puzzled expression on his face. A few steps away, those dead spirits would be able to catch up with him. They would definitely be drained of their life force and sucked away their souls.
Sitting down, Ye Feng felt as if he had survived a calamity. He gasped heavily and took out some spirit liquid to help him recover.
“Damn it, when has this daddy ever been in such a sorry state!”
As Ye Feng recovered, his eyes stared fixedly at the dead spirits wandering around Artemisia argyi, lest they catch up again.
Moreover, it was impossible for Ye Feng to escape now. The Artemisia argyi group was surrounded by dead souls, and Ye Feng was tightly surrounded.
“Old White, why do you think these dead souls don’t dare to approach these Artemisia argyi herbs?”
Ye Feng had almost recovered and asked Mubai.
“There must be something terrifying about Artemisia argyi, or an existence that can restrain the dead!”
Mu Bai had lived for tens of thousands of years and knew a lot of knowledge, but he could only help Ye Feng very little. No one could make him less than one billionth of his peak strength.
“Could it be that there are some ferocious beasts in this Artemisia argyi?”
Ye Feng was so frightened that he stood up. Don’t just escape from the tiger’s mouth and fall into the wolf nest. He really wanted to cry without tears.
“Restraining dead souls is not necessarily something that can be restrained by some evil beasts. Sometimes, something can be restrained. Everything in the world is intertwined, just like the Five Elements Technique. They are mutually exclusive.”
What Mu Bai meant was that there would be a strange biological chain in nature. It was intertwined. It didn’t have to be strong to be able to restrain it. Sometimes, a weak hamster could destroy a powerful Scarlet Flame Tiger.
Because the Scarlet Flame Tiger liked to set traps, if it was careless, it would be caught. Nature was such a peculiar thing.
The scene fell into a strange scene. Over a hundred dead souls floated in the void and refused to leave. They surrounded Artemisia argyi. As long as Ye Feng left this place, he would be devoured.
Helplessly, Ye Feng had no choice but to walk deeper into Artemisia argyi. Looking at these dead souls, Ye Feng felt goosebumps all over his body.
His body shuttled through Artemisia argyi, which was as tall as a person. He let out a thunderous sound. The dead souls outside were no longer visible and were blocked by Artemisia argyi.
The further he went, the taller Artemisia argyi became. Ye Feng could only take out a scimitar and cut Artemisia argyi apart before he could continue walking.
“Kid, don’t you think this place is very strange? The Spirit Forest actually has Artemisia argyi. This is completely illogical. The trees outside are all pure Yin, so they can only grow in the Spirit Forest. And this Artemisia argyi is a supreme Yang. Why did it grow in this pure Yin land?”
Mu Bai let out a puzzled voice. He always felt that this place was unusual, but it was hard to say.
Actually, Ye Feng had also thought of it. He could not find any reason to come out, so he went in to take a look.
“Could it be that there are pure Yang things underground that caused a group of Artemisia argyi to grow?”
Ye Feng seemed to have thought of something. Everything was mutually exclusive. The Extreme Yin Lands would definitely accompany the Extreme Yang Lands, and the Extreme Yang Lands would definitely accompany the Extreme Yin Lands.
Only in this way could it be explained. The Ghost Forest was extremely terrifying, but there must be something inside that could restrain the dead. Could it be this Artemisia argyi group?
“Very likely, we’ll know when we go down and take a look!”
Mu Bai also thought of it, but he couldn’t confirm it now.
As he walked deeper and deeper, Ye Feng suddenly saw the terrain in front of him moving downwards. This group of Artemisia argyi actually grew on a small slope. In front of this small slope, there was a dark cave entrance. He could not see clearly what was inside, and bursts of pure Yang energy were emitted from it.
“What we guessed is indeed correct. This place emits pure Yang energy, so those dead souls do not dare to approach.”
Mu Bai nodded. The guess he had just made should have been confirmed.
“But you have to be careful. I think this place is unusual. There might be some kind of demon lurking inside!”
Mu Bai’s divine sense was powerful. He swept his gaze around and discovered a terrifying aura coming from the entrance of the cave. Normally, the edge of a treasure would definitely be accompanied by powerful wild beasts. With the help of the treasure, they would be able to absorb the essence of the sun and moon in the heavens and earth.
“Don’t worry, even if you encounter a demonic beast, it’s still better than encountering a dead spirit!”
Ye Feng nodded. He was still grateful for Mu Bai’s reminder. Facing demonic beasts, he could at least display the martial skills he cultivated. However, when he encountered dead spirits, he could only passively be beaten.
Step by step, he approached the pitch-black entrance of the cave. Ye Feng focused his attention and became vigilant. Mu Bai turned into a slaughter sword and hid at the edge of the cave entrance step by step.
Ye Feng’s divine sense slowly seeped down and found that it was very deep below. After entering, it was as if he had sunk into an endless sea and disappeared.
“Isn’t entering still entering?”
Ye Feng hesitated. If he did not enter, he would quietly wait here until dawn and then leave. However, Ye Feng always felt that there was something unusual hidden in this black hole. If he missed it, it would be a lifetime of regret.
At their current realm, they could already sense something. By relying on their senses, they could tell that there must be some sort of important treasure hidden within this black hole.
“Let’s go all out. We need wealth and danger. There are still more than two months left before the battle of life and death. I can slowly cultivate on my own. It’s very difficult for me to catch up to Tang Shuangzhan. I can only rely on external forces to improve my cultivation.”
Thinking that there were still more than two months before Tang Shuangzhan’s challenge day, Ye Feng planned to take a risk.
The black hole was very dark. In addition, the sky outside was still dark, and the inside of the cave entrance was even darker. With the help of his divine sense, Ye Feng stepped down step by step.
The ground was very dry, and the temperature here was much higher than outside, making Ye Feng feel more comfortable.
A candle was lit, and the pitch-black passageway lit up. The surroundings could be clearly seen. The walls of the passageway were covered in yellow mud, and it was very dry. There was no sign of water droplets seeping out of the passageway.
As he walked down, the entrance of the cave became wider and wider, and faint lights began to float up from the ground.
“What kind of light is this? Why do I feel like I’m bathed in divine light?”
Feeling the faint light coming from the ground, Ye Feng’s eyes revealed a trace of surprise. This light shone on his body and was very comfortable. The cold and gloomy aura in his body just now was swept away.
“Kid, wait a moment. That little thing seems to be awake!”
Mu Bai suddenly stopped Ye Feng. There was a movement inside the storage ring. It turned out that Little Bai had woken up.
After resting for more than a month, Little Bai absorbed a large amount of energy from the spirit stones and finally woke up.
“It really is like adding wings to a tiger. Now that Little Bai has awakened, I have another arm!”
Ye Feng’s divine sense quickly contacted Little Bai. After a few months of recovery, Little Bai had actually climbed to the sixth level of the Divine realm. It was extremely terrifying.
Right now, only the Asura God was still incomplete. A’nan ‘and a’nu’ had yet to recover. Once all of them recovered, even if Ye Feng faced the seventh level of the Divine Martial Arts, he would not be afraid.
“Big brother, I’ve recovered completely!”
Little Bai’s tender voice sounded in Ye Feng’s soul sea. In fact, Little Bai had been awake for more than a month, but he could not wake up and only wanted to sleep.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you take risks in the future!”
Ye Feng said with a tone of assurance. Because of him, Little Bai had already fallen asleep twice. Ye Feng felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
He didn’t let Little Bai appear. The hole was too narrow, so it wasn’t appropriate for Little Bai to come out. He had to stay in his storage ring first.
After Little Bai woke up, he was very curious about Mu Bai. The two of them were communicating with each other and soon understood everything about Mu Bai. It turned out that it was the awakening of the Slaughter Sword.
Getting rid of his mood, he continued to walk down. The awakening of Little Bai made Ye Feng’s mood much better.
Suddenly!
Those rays of light grew brighter and brighter, so much so that Ye Feng couldn’t even open his eyes. Beneath the ground, they actually emitted such intense rays of light.
