As spiritual energy revived, I, having acquired certain attributes, gradually ascended to immortalit

Shen Qing subconsciously asked Xie Chong, "Do you think this makes sense? And if we can get in, we can't just get out from over there, can we?"

"Huh? You're asking me?"

Xie Chong shook his head with an expression that said, "You overestimate me." "I don't know, but I feel like headquarters might have some secret methods."

Therefore, it's safest to just follow the government's lead.

As he spoke, he thought of a company president who was someone he could barely call an acquaintance and who had lost his mind.

They actually chose to cooperate with those who possessed evil supernatural powers. Now look what happened—they're in jail, and the company is in complete chaos.

As if to answer everyone's questions, Dr. Yun pushed up his glasses and looked at the girl beside him.

The girl pouted, took off the mask from her head, and handed it over.

The mask slipped from his hand and hovered in the air. A semi-transparent power burst forth from between the mask's eyebrows, and the surrounding yin energy began to gather.

That power forcefully opened a crack in the void, which then rapidly expanded and stabilized, transforming into a dark green vortex channel.

Everyone unconsciously held their breath.

Dr. Yun returned the mask to the girl, his tone indifferent, "Pretty much, considering it's illegal immigration, although it would have been better if he had come in person."

Upon hearing this, the girl gave him a disapproving look, "If you weren't always having such wild ideas, he wouldn't have been able to burn through his energy so quickly."

With that, she turned and left, the cat charm jingling as she moved, but she quickly disappeared into the night without a sound.

"Alright, the passage is now secure."

Dr. Yun drew everyone's attention back, "But currently, entry is limited to those below level C. Once you enter the Realm of Evil Thoughts, setting up an anchor point counts as a success."

But note that the demons must not be allowed near the passage until the anchoring is complete.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jianghan shook his head.

"Ideally, it should be rank 8, which is what you call E-level. If a rank 7 person enters without any means of concealment, they will definitely attract attention."

Furthermore, since you forcibly opened the passage with external force, the demons and monsters in the vicinity will surely be alarmed.

Once inside, be sure to prepare for battle immediately.

As he spoke, a hint of confusion and deep horror flashed in his eyes.

Forcibly opening the channel to the realm of evil thoughts, creating a spiritual anchor point, and sealing it off in one direction—this is a method of the top three ranks. But hasn't this world just recently experienced a revival of spiritual energy?

How is that possible!

He couldn't help but shudder as he thought of the explosions he had witnessed.

A weapon on its own isn't scary, but what if it's paired with an unknown, powerful opponent?

No wonder the elders have always been wary of this world and have advocated cooperation from the very beginning.

"Then let's do as he says."

Dr. Yun adjusted his glasses, opened the box he always carried, and inside was a stack of yellow talismans.

"These talismans are called Yangyan Talismans, which can suppress evil spirits to a certain extent. The current research and development progress is only at this stage."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd and landing on Shen Qing.

"However, if Major Shen were willing to provide me with more blood samples, it might speed up the research process."

Feeling Dr. Yun's gaze, which seemed to be directed at a living person, Shen Qing suddenly felt a little pressured.

My back feels a little cold.

The director stepped to the side, blocking his view. "Dr. Yun, the abilities of supernatural beings are incredibly diverse, and there is more than one way to deal with evil spirits."

Is there any need to keep an eye on Major Shen?

After all, blood and essence share the same origin, and one can easily affect one's health if one is not careful. Major Shen Qing is one of our outstanding members.

Even the military has their names recorded.

He took the talismans from Dr. Yun and began distributing them to the ten people who were about to enter the realm of evil thoughts.

The seven captains, along with Shen Qing, the female knight, and Xie Chong, each had ten yellow talismans, three blue talismans, and one purple talisman.

"If it's not necessary, stay away from this Dr. Yun."

Listening to the director's words, Shen Qing nodded slightly and looked down. The talisman had crimson patterns on it.

This was developed using his blood sample, combined with other powers. Once used, it's like an enchantment that can harm evil spirits.

"Be careful. If things don't look right, back out immediately. This is just the first test."

The director gave Fang Shu a final instruction, handing him a nail-like object that was thirty centimeters long and completely black.

Everyone nodded, swallowed hard as they looked at the dark green vortex, and without hesitation, Fang Shu took the lead and walked in, followed closely by the others.

The scene changed instantly.

The ground was dark red, smelled of rust, and had an unpleasantly sticky feel when stepped on.

The sky was dark, with no sun or moon, and a thin white mist surrounded them. Everyone except Shen Qing and the female knight stared wide-eyed.

They may even feel unwell.

"Be careful, especially those who possess elemental mystical arts. The negative energy here can affect your control over the elements."

Fang Shu immediately gave the order, "One person is responsible for installing the anchor points, and the rest of you are on guard."

A captain took the black nail, and his power surged, causing it to dissipate the moment it touched him.

"It will take about ten minutes."

But less than half a minute later, the ground began to shake.

The white mist in the distance began to churn, and through the hazy mist, everyone could see a group of demons and monsters surging in from all directions, a dark mass.

At the front were a group of ninth-rank wandering souls with blurred faces, as well as walking corpses, all of whom had been driven there as miscellaneous soldiers.

Interspersed among them were several eighth-rank demons, and even a seventh-rank demon with a human face, long arms, a black body covered in hair, and a pair of huge fangs protruding.

That was a mountain demon, the king of the mountains.

Shen Qing and his group were like a beacon in the darkness, attracting all the demons and monsters in the vicinity, but the strongest among them was only at the eighth rank.

"A seventh-rank official at his peak..."

Fang Shu and Li Feng exchanged a glance and immediately gave the order.

"That seventh-grade demon will be dealt with by Li Feng and me. The rest of you, focus on the nearest teammates!"

As for why they didn't bring firearms, it was because they didn't want to attract attention. Bringing in weapons from another world would immediately draw attention.

Then it won't be just this one seventh-rank beast anymore.

Before the demons could get close, several captains who were skilled in ranged attacks launched the first attack.

The fireball, trailing a fiery tail, ripped through the dim sky, its mouth booming with thunder. The first few wandering souls were instantly annihilated, turning into wisps of black smoke.

Shen Qing was facing an eighth-grade ghost insect, over a meter tall, semi-transparent, wriggling in the air.

Compared to others, he found it easier to deal with ghosts and monsters, since others had a limited number of talismans.

Shen Qing's blood-stained right fist fell, and the ghost worm let out a miserable scream before disappearing instantly.

The kill notification did not appear, and another crimson ghost worm emerged.

"What the hell is this thing?"

After several rounds, Shen Qing frowned. He had scattered the ghost worms several times, but each time they would reassemble.

On the contrary, several wandering spirits around were swept away by the aftershocks of the battle and turned into black smoke, with their karma value reaching 268 points.

Just then, three ghost worms appeared simultaneously: a red worm, a worm, and a long worm.

They emitted an invisible sound that directly attacked the soul. Shen Qing felt a blur before his eyes and became disoriented for a moment.

It felt like my soul was being ripped out.

"Shen Qing!"

The female warrior held the Yellow Springs Lantern and called out to him. The eerie green light enveloped him, finally bringing him back to his senses.

Without hesitation, Shen Qing, regaining his senses, used the purple talisman directly, his fist imbued with the blazing sun and fused with his blood.

His fist seemed to be ignited, bursting into a layer of golden-red flames.

With a single punch, the demonic insect vanished.

This time, the Ghost Worms did not reunite.
