Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 435 The Perilous Nine Yin Corpse-Raising Ground!

Gu Yuan was fine; he didn't even need to circulate his qi and blood. A layer of protective qi rose from his body, blocking out these evil energies and strange sounds.

However, Mei Changshan, who was standing to the side, had also made some preparations in advance. He not only took out a talisman and stuck it on his body, but also used some kind of protective supernatural power.

However, compared to Gu Yuan, his foundation and supernatural abilities were naturally far inferior.

After walking only a dozen steps, the talisman spontaneously combusted without fire, and his protective divine power did not play much of a role. Mei Changshan's face turned pale as a strange chill invaded his body, causing his legs to tremble and frost to form on his eyebrows.

With a casual wave of his hand, Gu Yuan sent a beam of water-based divine light down upon him.

Mei Changshan's mind cleared instantly, and the chill he felt subsided.

He snapped out of his daze and quickly thanked her, "Thank you, senior, thank you, Gu Shanbei."

At this moment, Mei Changshan was genuinely grateful to Gu Yuan, as this was the second time Gu Yuan had saved him.

Everyone says that Gu Yuan is extremely bloodthirsty, but in Mei Changshan's opinion, while it may be true that he is bloodthirsty, it doesn't mean that he is an evil person.

On the contrary, he is a kind person with his own principles and bottom line, and is considered a rare kind person in the cultivation world.

At least, to his knowledge, Gu Yuan had never done anything that resulted in the indiscriminate killing of innocent people or harm to others.

This is quite rare in the cultivation world.

"Do you know Xu Hui, the woman from earlier?"

Just as Mei Changshan was lost in thought, he heard Gu Yuan ask him a question.

Mei Changshan was startled and quickly replied respectfully, "Senior, Xu Hui is actually my fellow disciple, and her master is my senior master. Although my master left behind a treasure map, since Xu Hui came here with those two Demon Suppression Division captains, I suspect that my junior sister Xu should also have a rubbing of the treasure map on her."

"Ah."

Gu Yuan nodded slightly and said nothing more.

After walking for a while, the surrounding fog began to thicken. Even with the enhancement of the Chaos Divine Thunder power, Gu Yuan could not see what was happening a hundred meters away.

Mei Changshan was even more affected, unable to see clearly even ten meters away.

Furthermore, the mournful cries emanating from the surrounding mist grew increasingly louder, forcing even Gu Yuan to activate his supernatural powers to block them out.

suddenly,

Brush brush!
Several rotting arms emerged from the dark red soil and grabbed at Gu Yuan and Mei Changshan's legs.

These arms are all different; some are thick and strong, some are thin and long, some are iron-blue, as if cast from iron and stone, and have great strength. Some have rotted away, leaving only a few pieces of rotten flesh hanging on the white bones, but the bone claws are sharp as knives.

Gu Yuan reacted quickly, easily dodging the attack. With a stomp of his foot, a shockwave rippled outwards, shattering several arms and turning the corpses in the ground into a bloody pulp.

Mei Changshan's protective magic was torn apart by that bone claw, and he was almost injured.

The bone claws emitted a ghostly light, clearly containing terrifying corpse poison. Once caught, the consequences would obviously not be good.

Gu Yuan glanced at the still-shaken Mei Changshan and said, "This place is too dangerous. If you continue deeper, you probably won't be able to hold out for long with your strength. If you feel you can't go any further, it's not too late to turn back now."

In his opinion, although Mei Changshan's cultivation was not bad, his supernatural abilities were really mediocre. Continuing to follow him would only be a burden, so it would be better to let him wait outside.

"I……"

Mei Changshan hesitated for a moment. His purpose in coming here was actually to explore this ancient cultivation cave, to find some treasures to fill his storage bag, and to collect cultivation resources for his future cultivation.

It's a real shame that we've come back empty-handed.

However, just as Mei Changshan hesitated, another faint shadow flew out from the mist.

The shadow was like a wisp of smoke, faint and indistinct, and did not seem to be anything to be afraid of.

However, upon seeing Gu Yuan and his companion, the faint shadow suddenly revealed a phantom and hideous ghostly face, and let out a shrill howl.

The scream was piercing and sharp, a thousand times more piercing than the sound of a sharp knife scraping against glass, and it was so ear-splitting that it almost made one's head explode.

Mei Changshan was completely stunned. Blood was flowing from his nose, eyes, ears, mouth and other seven orifices. If it weren't for Gu Yuan's Water Element Divine Light protecting him, his head would have exploded like a watermelon.

Even so, the grotesque ghostly figure still pounced forward.

However, just as it was about to pounce on Mei Changshan, a bolt of dark purple lightning flew by and landed precisely on the ghostly phantom.

ah--! ! !
With a shrill, piercing, and distorted howl, the ghostly phantom was shattered by lightning, turning into a wisp of smoke and vanishing without a trace.

It was Gu Yuan who made the move, and he was completely unaffected from beginning to end.

As for the ghostly phantom from earlier, it was actually a rather sinister demon. Caught off guard at such close range, even a Golden Core cultivator would suffer a loss, let alone Mei Changshan.

"Senior Gu, my strength is weak, so I'd better go out and wait for you first."

After this battle, Mei Changshan was also somewhat frightened, realizing his own limited strength and that continuing to venture deeper would be tantamount to suicide.

He abandoned any thought of continuing forward, apologized to Gu Yuan, and was about to turn back when he seemed to remember something. He took out the treasure map from his storage bag and handed it to Gu Yuan: "Senior, you might need this treasure map. Please keep it for now."

"it is good."

Gu Yuan didn't stand on ceremony, took it from behind, and then casually cast a water-based divine light on Mei Changshan before striding forward.

Without Mei Changshan's burden, Gu Yuan's speed increased significantly.

Occasionally, he would encounter ghosts or demons, which he would casually kill with a single sword strike.

Among them were some rather troublesome evil spirits, such as several bronze-armored corpses whose bodies were faintly glowing with silver light, and a Yin Demon that was adept at attacking the soul.

If it weren't for Gu Yuan, Mei Changshan would have already lost his life here.

However, Gu Yuan became increasingly certain that the Old Demon of the Netherworld must have set up something important here, and that he must have some ulterior motive!

Because there are just too many evil spirits and demons in this cave.

The evil spirits and ghosts that escaped from this place are probably less than one percent of the many evil spirits in this place.

With so many evil spirits gathered here, they certainly won't live in peace and refrain from harming each other. Instead, it will be like raising poisonous insects, where the weak will be brutally killed and devoured by the strong.

In an environment like the Nine Yin Corpse-Nourishing Ground, the powerful begin to accumulate strength, becoming increasingly stronger and more terrifying!
More than three thousand years have passed, and what kind of terrifying ghosts and evil spirits have been bred from it?

Although Gu Yuan didn't know, he was aware that the underground cave was extremely dangerous.
