The Yin Spirit Pool was a small gathering place for Yin Spirits, ghosts, and wild monsters. There were around 10,000 of them, which was considered quite a high number already.
There were not many people who came here. After all, they would not dare to come over and get overwhelmed by the number of monsters here.
When these teams saw Lin Xuan appear here alone, they immediately sent someone over, “Hey, are you lost? Why are you here? Quick, you need to hide well.”
The man hurriedly pulled out a few rotten grass and squeezed out some grass juice to wipe it on Lin Xuan’s body. “Put more on, it’s to be safe.”
“Thank you. I’m not lost, I’m just interested in this Yin Spirit Pool.”
“Heh, little brat, you’re really not afraid of death. There are tens of thousands of Yin Spirits here, and there are quite a few black-rank ferocious spirits as well. I see that you’re still at the yellow-rank. Listen to my advice, the water here is too deep, you can’t control it.”
The man shook his head and pulled Lin Xuan towards their hidden location. He was very careful and was constantly on guard against the Yin Spirit Pool not far away.
Lin Xuan did not resist. After all, he was only a newbie who never hunted Yin Spirits and ghosts. It would be very helpful to see how the veterans dealt with them. Moreover, his previous innate skill was only effective against flesh and blood creatures. He was really not confident in dealing with these Yin Spirits and ghosts that did not have a physical body.
“Captain, it’s a young boy who got lost. I brought him back first.”
The man whispered to a middle-aged man at the front. The middle-aged man didn’t say anything. He hummed and didn’t turn his head back.
A womanin their team smiled gently at him and patted Lin Xuan’s hand to make him feel at ease. Then, she didn’t say anything.
“Attention, a yellow-rank Yin Spirit is alone. Get ready.”
In an instant, the team’s expressions changed. The man raised the shield in his hand while the woman softly chanted an incantation. Wisps of black fog spread out.
“Brat, watch carefully. If you don’t want to attract the attention of a large number of Yin Spirits, don’t use your energy and blood power. Once you use them, the rotten grass would not be able to cover your smell. Using holy water is useful, but it’s too expensive.
“We also have Dao talismans in Taixia Country. It’s too wasteful to use one talisman to deal with a small number of Yin Spirits. We can burn the Dao talismans and mix the talisman ashes and water in a certain proportion, it has a good effect.
“Wait, watch it carefully and learn it well!”
A muddle-headed Yin Spirit left the range of the Yin Spirit Pool and staggered out of it.
The middle-aged man must have seen the opportunity. A mage pulled the Yin Spirit down. At the sight of this, the middle-aged man pounced towards the Yin Spirit and hit it with his shield. It made noise, however, the other spirits front he Yin Spirit Pool did not interfere at all.
It was the woman’s dark support skill — Silent Black Fog that was aiding in this battle. Although the name was domineering, the effect was really useless. It could only reduce the sound transmission and cover up some movements. However, in this place, the effect was exceptionally good.
The middle-aged mage extended his hand that carried traces of lightning and grabbed the Yin Spirit’s body. Lightning flashed, and the Yin Spirit died.
Some soul essences dropped, and a card also dropped. The middle-aged man’s face was filled with joy. He quickly picked up the spoils of war on the ground, raised his head, and grinned. “Let’s go to another place.”
Lin Xuan was also taken to their second base.
He inadvertently turned his head and saw that the Yin Spirit that had just died was already condensing Yin energy, and was about to be resurrected soon.
Ghost Spell!
The most terrifying and core skill of the undead calamity!
When there were fewer of them, it was just a useless skill. However, once the number reached a certain limit, this was the most terrifying army skill.
Unless there was a way to directly erase their origin!
The distance between the two bases was not far. Soon, the four of them settled down again. The middle-aged man that was a mage continued to act as an observer to see if there were any single Yin Spirits left behind.
The man heaved a sigh of relief. He lifted his shield and leaned against the tree trunk. He smiled and said, “Kid, have you learned it yet?”
“Lower your voice. You’ll attract the spirits!” The middle-aged mage in front of him scolded in a low voice.
The man smiled embarrassedly. It was the woman who waved her hand. “It’s alright, my black fog is still maintained. Relax.”
“You’re also a guardian. This is my first time coming to the Western Capital. How did you do that?”
Lin Xuan asked since he did not understand, the middle-aged man patiently explained to him, “It’s different from the undead like the skeleton warriors. The Yin Spirits do not have a physical body, so it’s difficult for physical attacks to be effective. However, it’s not impossible. The talisman ashes and holy water that I mentioned earlier is one way.
“Other than external forces, the power of energy and blood can also be used to defeat them. I’ve even heard that black-rank experts who have condensed their energy and blood can directly burn the Yin Spirits.
“Of course, there’s another way, and that’s by having a certain attribute. You saw that lightning hand just now, and it immediately defeated the Yin Spirit. Lightning is the most effective against Yin Spirits and ghosts, and then there’s fire and ice. Of course, if you have the light attribute, then just pretend that I didn’t say anything.”
So that’s how it was!
Understood.
“Pay attention!”
The middle-aged mage suddenly spoke, his tone somewhat excited. He saw a small group of Yin Spirits stagger out of the Yin Spirit Pool, probably going to patrol. He hurriedly called his team to get ready, and they looked at Lin Xuan’s gaze, the mood fluctuated, and in the end, he said somewhat reluctantly, “Follow us, don’t run around aimlessly.”
This small group of Yin Spirits wandered around. The middle-aged man was somewhat worried, afraid that their small group would not be able to overpower the Yin Spirits. The woman was also somewhat hesitant, suggesting to look for external help.
The middle-aged mage repeatedly confirmed the number of Yin Spirits in the small group, “There are a few more than usual, but among them, there’s only one high-level yellow-rank, and only four middle-level ones. I can still deal with a few of them. My mastery of the lightning hand has increased quite a bit compared to last time. Let’s take that gamble, and if it doesn’t work, run. Kid, stand over there later, and if the situation doesn’t look right, quickly run back.”
Seeing that the middle-aged mage had decided to go all out, the man and the woman made up their minds. They had to fight their way up to their current level of strength bit by bit!
Let’s do it!
The silent black fog began to move. In the dark and gloomy spirit forest, the black fog was not eye-catching at all, and the blocking effect was very good. However, this time, the commotion would be very big, and the amount of black fog needed tripled.
The density of the black fog was in place. The man took out a black-skinned calabash and held a mouthful of talisman water in his mouth. He raised his shield and slammed it forward. Then, he opened his mouth and spat out the talisman water.
The middle-aged mage made his move. The chain lightning connected all the Yin Spirits. Under the situation where the air was filled with fog, the power of the chain lightning became stronger.
Everything was developing in a good direction!
If nothing unexpected happened, then something unexpected would happen.
The middle-aged mage’s expression changed. There was actually a high-level yellow-rank stealthy Yin Spirit hidden in this group.
There was a flaw in their plan. They could deal with the formation from before, even if it was a little difficult, but with an additional high-level yellow-rank Yin Spirit… the battle tide was instantly reversed.
“Time to pause the plan! Stand back”
As the middle-aged mage ran, he called out to the three of them to run!
