Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

The boatman turned off the engine and let the wooden boat drift into the cave with the current, while using the oars to push against the cave walls to propel the boat.

The cave was cramped and the engine was too loud, so they turned it off for fear of disturbing the river god.

Wu Xie kept his eyes on the two men, knowing full well that they would plot against them later.

Despite his discomfort, Wu Xie walked onto the two men's boat and said to them, "Those who do many unrighteous deeds will surely perish. You'd better watch yourselves."

Soon the wooden boat reached a familiar bend, the place where the middle-aged boatman and the old man disappeared in the video.

The old man continued to try to distract them, telling one bizarre story after another.

Wu Xie knew that the corpse beetle swarm was about to appear, and he remained secretly on guard.

As they rounded a corner, the middle-aged boatman and the old man tried to escape through the tunnel, but Wu Xie swiftly grabbed their ankles and dragged them down.

"Third Uncle, they're trying to escape," Wu Xie shouted to Wu Sansheng.

“We knew you had ulterior motives all along. You still dared to make up stories to scare us and try to distract us, didn’t you!” Pan Zi stepped forward and slapped the two men several times.

The sound of slapping faces echoed in the cave.

"Da Kui, tie their hands and feet. Pan Zi, you take the helm," Wu Sansheng instructed.

"Yes, Third Master." Pan Zi accepted the order and immediately went to the bow of the ship.

"Third Master, they've damaged the engine, and it won't start now," Pan Zijiu reported to Wu Sansheng quickly.

"Bastards!" Da Kui was furious and kicked the two men's thighs several times.

Outraged, Da Kui asked Wu Sansheng for instructions: "Third Master, how should we deal with them?"

"They'll still be useful if we keep them alive, so let's not take their lives," Wu Sansheng said after a moment's thought.

Da Kui obeyed the order and broke their fingers and toes, mainly to prevent them from escaping.

Da Kui stuffed their mouths with smelly socks, and a strong stench of foot odor filled the boat, causing Zhang Qiling and Wu Sansheng to frown.

The smell overpowered the stench of the corpses on the boatman and the old man, and Wu Xie even gagged repeatedly, as if he had encountered a biological weapon.

A rustling sound came from underwater, and a large group of small carrion beetles passed by, over the wooden boat, seemingly fleeing.

"What's that in the water?" Da Kui asked in horror, looking at the movement in the water.

"Be careful, there might be something even more terrifying coming up behind us," Uncle San warned.

Zhang Qiling stared at the water, his face expressionless.

He quickly reached into the water and grabbed a carrion beetle.

He held a three-finger-sized corpse beetle in his hand.

“This thing is a corpse beetle. They feed on corpses and usually live in groups. I just didn’t expect there to be so many of them.” Looking at the corpse beetle that Zhang Qiling picked up, Wu Sansheng said with some surprise, “It seems that the old man and the boatman were not lying. This is indeed a corpse cave. There may be corpse accumulation areas and corpse pools further ahead.”

After Wu Sansheng finished speaking, a strange ringing sound suddenly rang out.

The eerie ringing continuously stimulates the brain, causing mental confusion, stiffening of the body, and immersion in hallucinations.

Wu Xie immediately used his internal energy to resist the influence of the bell, and was able to suppress it.

"Cover your ears, don't listen!" Zhang Qiling said succinctly.

In the live stream, the group members couldn't help but sigh when they saw the reactions of Uncle San, Da Kui, Pan Zi, and others.

Group owner Xiao Shan: "They are all ordinary people, so it's only natural for them to be afraid. It's already very rare for ordinary people to have such a reaction."

Mao Xiaofang: "Wu Xie, quickly use the talisman to dispel the yin energy in this tomb, and the evil spirits inside will be unable to cause trouble."

Ying Zheng: "Wu Xie, listen to Master Mao."

Wu Xie: "Okay!"

After reading Mao Xiaofang's suggestion in the chat group, Wu Xie immediately took out a stack of yellow talismans from his backpack.

He chanted an incantation and then threw the talisman into the air.

The talisman instantly transformed into streaks of golden light, disappearing into the water and causing ripples to spread across the previously calm surface.

A flash of golden light appeared, and the corpse beetles tainted with yin energy were driven away by the talisman.

“It worked!” Wu Xie said in a deep voice.

Mao Xiaofang: "Wu Xie, just stick the talisman on the boat or on your body!"

Mao Xiaofang hadn't expected Wu Xie to throw the talisman into the water, so he could only continue to remind him.

Just then, the eerie bell rang again, and more corpse beetles swarmed over, surrounding the small boat.

"Everyone, stick the talismans on your bodies!" Wu Xie hurriedly said to everyone, following Mao Xiaofang's advice.

Golden rays suddenly shot up, and the corpse beetles that were swept by the golden light died one after another, their corpses piling up on the ship.

Wu Sansheng, Da Kui, and Pan Zi haphazardly stuck the talismans on. Once the talismans took effect, their spiritual power dissipated, and they became ordinary talismans.

Zhang Qiling's eyes turned cold. He raised his knife, slashed his palm, and then plunged it into the water.

Zhang Qiling prepared to use his own Qilin bloodline to dispel the corpse beetles.

"Everyone, row faster!" Wu Sansheng shouted at this moment.

In the tense atmosphere, the small boat finally sailed out of the outer perimeter of the corpse cave and came to a slightly open body of water.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they knew in their hearts that the real danger and test were yet to come.

Panzi held a flashlight and shone it around, and immediately discovered that the surrounding area was a shallow beach piled with corpses, one after another.

The corpse was crawling with countless carrion beetles, and a foul stench permeated the surrounding air.

The old man and the middle-aged boatman were so frightened that their eyes widened like copper bells.

"Third Uncle, they were terrified." Da Kui said to Wu Sansheng, looking at the lifeless old man and the middle-aged boatman.

"I thought they were so powerful, but I never expected them to be so cowardly. They were scared to death like that," Pan Zi said with a look of disdain.

A giant carrion beetle, the size of a washbasin, suddenly burst out of the water.

Zhang Qiling, wielding the Black Gold Ancient Blade, precisely severed its nerve cords, causing the corpse beetle to fall onto the boat.

There was also a bronze bell on the corpse beetle's body.

It was a hexagonal bronze bell, which looked perfectly integrated with the tail of the corpse beetle.

Upon seeing this, Pan Zi was about to stomp on it.

They had embarrassed themselves because of it, which made him very angry.

"Stop!" Wu Xie shouted to stop Pan Zi when he saw him trying to destroy the bronze bell.

After all, these are cultural relics; how can they be destroyed at will?

Just then, a female ghost in white appeared in front of Wu Xie and his companions.

Wu Sansheng, Da Kui, and Pan Zi were all stunned by the sudden appearance of the white-clad female ghost.

Only Zhang Qiling flicked a drop of Qilin blood at her, temporarily stopping the female ghost's movements. He then told everyone to turn away and not look.

At this moment, Wu Xie moved his feet and leaped out, gathering a large amount of solar energy in his hand.

Zhang Qiling was stunned; Wu Xie's sudden unusual behavior was beyond his expectations.

With the infusion of the sun's power, a large amount of Yin energy was expelled.

Wu Xie quickly circulated his cultivation technique, absorbing Yin energy into his body, while simultaneously activating his innate ability to connect Yin and Yang.

Through the female ghost's eyes, Wu Xie's mind invaded her soul's memories, and a large amount of information was read out by Wu Xie.

"Nephew!"

"Young Master San!"

"Young Master San!"

The sudden turn of events startled Wu Sansheng, Da Kui, and Pan Zi.

Zhang Qiling looked at Wu Xie, who was staring at the female puppet, with a strange expression.

"Third Master, when did Third Master become so powerful?" Pan Zi asked, looking at Wu Sansheng.

Wu Xie's expression hardened, and with his left hand glowing with golden light, he struck the female ghost's body, directly expelling her soul from her body.

Apart from Zhang Qiling, no one else could see the existence of a soul.

The female puppet's corpse fell and quickly turned to dust.

Wu Xie lightly touched the water's surface with his feet and then returned to the wooden boat.

"Who are you?" Wu Sansheng asked Wu Xie with a serious expression.

He thought Wu Xie was possessed by an evil spirit.

"Third Uncle, this is a skill that senior taught me. It can be used to deal with evil spirits," Wu Xie explained somewhat helplessly.

"Is it that senior from Maoshan again?" Wu Sansheng frowned.

"It's still him!" Zhang Qiling reminded him, but he remained tight-lipped.

Wu Sansheng knew that the other party was a very capable person, and his expression calmed down a bit.

However, his gaze toward Wu Xie was now tinged with curiosity.

After dealing with the female puppet, Wu Xie looked at another crystal coffin next to him, which contained a male puppet.

They were all corpse puppets created through secret techniques, their souls sealed within their bodies, never to be reborn, and a large amount of resentment and yin energy constantly eroding their minds.

Wu Xie decided to use the same method to deal with the male puppet.

He once again channeled his magic, intending to expel the male puppet's soul from his body.

However, this time the male puppet resisted fiercely, and Wu Xie felt a powerful force fighting against him.

Just then, Zhang Qiling made his move.

With lightning speed, he pointed out.

The slender fingers struck the male puppet's brow.

The male puppet let out a scream, his soul vanished instantly, and his body disappeared along with it.

"What amazing skills!" Wu Xie exclaimed.

"You're not bad either," Zhang Qiling replied calmly, still without any expression.

After dealing with the two corpse puppets, Wu Xie immediately accelerated his cultivation speed, attracting a large amount of Yin energy from the tomb.

The surrounding temperature dropped several degrees instantly, giving Wu Sansheng and the others goosebumps.

Fortunately, no other ghosts appeared afterward, and the five of them left the corpse pile without incident.

After leaving the mass grave, Wu Sansheng took out a map to examine it and decided to first go to the small mountain village ahead to inquire about some information.

The bodies of the old man and the boatman were left near the mass grave, where they were devoured by the remaining carrion beetles.

Seeing that the sun had already set, Wu Xie said a few words to the group members and then turned off the live stream.

The next day, after a night's rest, everyone had regained their energy.

The wound on Zhang Qiling's hand has completely healed.

Wu Xie also started his live stream again.

As the live stream began, group members entered his live stream room one after another.

It's human nature to enjoy watching a spectacle, and the members of the chat group all possess a curious mind.

Wu Xie: "This place is full of yin energy, it's definitely a good place for cultivation! It's just a pity that my third uncle and the others aren't really suited to stay here, otherwise I would love to cultivate here properly!"

Zhou Bingkun: "When you come back, just find some time to come here and cultivate!"

Wu Xie: "That makes sense!"

Group owner Xiao Shan: "We're about to go to the Lu King's Coffin. Are you afraid of the thousand-year-old blood rice dumpling?"

Wu Xie: "I'm not afraid anymore!"

Huang Rong: "That's right, don't be afraid! What's there to be afraid of with a blood-red rice dumpling? It's just a little brother in front of Master Ren!"
