Although he still hadn't encountered the existence of any creature's soul after death, it was gratifying that Huo Yutong finally saw the hope of getting out of this wilderness.

In the exploration of the spiritual realm, the wasteland with purple grass grew abruptly at a distance of about twenty kilometers from her.

A distinct, wall-like black barrier separates the Comfrey Wasteland from the outside world into two distinct colors.

Looking up, even if the spiritual realm extends to the limit, it is impossible to see how high this barrier connecting heaven and earth is.

It seems to stretch upwards as infinitely as if there is no end.

At this moment, she was almost moved to tears.

After a month-long trek, she finally saw hope of getting out of the place she had named the Comfrey Wasteland.

Walking all the way to the border, Huo Yutong tentatively crossed the "barrier" separating the two places after testing that there was no danger.

The moment she walked out of the Comfrey Wasteland, the vision in front of her suddenly opened up.

It was still the same dark and dull tone, but it was much better than the eternal darkness of the Purple Grass Wasteland—at least she didn't have to rely on mental power to see the scenery in front of her.

However, this situation did not make Huo Yutong's mood better.

Because in front of her eyes, there was a scene far more eerie than the Comfrey Wasteland.

The ubiquitous darkness was gone, replaced by an equally eternal gray fog.

The mist continued to roll and roll, and under the reflection of the light source that came from nowhere, it presented a very strange and eerie scene.

It seemed to be the frontier of some forest or wood—if the tall, black, strangely shaped plants with dark blue fruits were really trees, as dry and twisted as if they had been burned by fire for more than a dozen hours.

They were illuminated by gray mist and a halo of light from nowhere, reflecting large but distorted limbs and torsos.

From Huo Yutong's point of view, all this is like a human body that is constantly wailing and struggling in despair.

The pervasive gray mist doesn't seem to be as calm as it seems.

It's like having a life of its own, tumbling, rolling, and flowing.

It doesn't have to be in a particular direction, there is no fixed trajectory at all.

Faintly, there seemed to be some kind of strange black shadow that couldn't see what it looked like, moving behind the gray fog.

Whether there is really something moving, or just a psychological effect, Huo Yutong does not know.

From the time the wind of rest stopped blowing and started to walk, her current state is not good, and her soul power and spiritual power reserves are not much.

Therefore, she did not rashly spread the spiritual realm to explore and probe it.

Before I knew it, the scenery in front of me became more and more eerie.

In the underworld, black, gray, and purple seem to be the main theme of everything, just like an old black and white movie with strange colors.

Aside from these three colors, Huo Yutong hadn't seen any other colors here.

Huo Yutong stood at the border of the two regions and hesitated slightly.

She looked at the mechanical watch in her hand, less than half an hour before the next wind of rest.

It would be bad if you rushed inward into an uncharted territory and encountered some force majeure situation that left you without enough time to take refuge in the black sarcophagus.

After hesitating, Huo Yutong decided to lie down here for the time being today, waiting for the wind of rest to blow by.

Wait until the next day when you have enough time to explore further.

Lying in the black sarcophagus, Huo Yutong stared at the coffin lid less than two feet away from him, and felt a strange sense of relief.

After stepping out of the wasteland covered with purple grass, the pervasive negative force eroded at a slightly reduced rate.

This can probably be regarded as good news, reducing the dual consumption of mental power and soul power.

Huo Yutong had just counted the remaining soul power reserves.

The good news is that she has finally stepped out of this inexplicable gloomy wasteland where there is not even half a ghost.

The bad news: there are not many soul power reserves.

In the underworld, the consumption and loss of soul power is too fast.

Even if you stay and don't do anything, as long as you are not in a meditative state, your soul power will slowly flow outward at a certain speed.

Even if it is a normal walk, the speed of consuming soul power is even more than in an ordinary battle.

According to Huo Yutong's own estimates, if the current situation continues, in less than two months at most, the soul power reserves in the bottle will be completely depleted.

】

And that's without going through a fight.

In the event of the outbreak of fighting and certain special circumstances......

That situation is already unpredictable.

The familiar wind of rest blows from above, and wisps of strange energy are transformed into gentle food and replenished into the soul after being transformed by the earth of death.

Huo Yutong blinked, feeling that the soul power brought by the Wind of Rest this time seemed to be a little less, and it was more "gentle", not as violent as on the Comfrey Wasteland.

At least not the utterly oozing howls.

Perhaps, the winds of rest here are a little less powerful than those found in the Comfrey Wasteland.

What is the reason for all this?

Is the power of the Wind of Rest related to the intensity of the power of death?

Huo Yutong thought back to how he felt when he was exposed to the outside world before, and carefully thought about and analyzed everything he perceived.

In this place, which she has temporarily named the Gloomy Forest, the power of death does seem to be a little thinner than it was in the Comfrey Wasteland.

It's probably the same as in the undead half-plane.

Not only that, but even the quality of the Dead Soil had also declined compared to the Purple Grass Wasteland, and it was not the kind that had been tempered to the extreme.

But it's still a good place for the undead.

Wait a minute!

If the Wind of Rest will give birth to the undead, will the Wind of Rest give life to the undead if there are enough soul fragments?

Huo Yutong listened to the sound of the wind of rest, and thought quietly in the quiet black sarcophagus, speculating about this world suspected to be the underworld.

Twelve hours later, the wind of rest stopped punctually.

Huo Yutong also recovered the soul power in his body through the feeding bottle and crawled out of the ground again.

After putting the black sarcophagus carrying Qian Chaoguang's body on the trailer, the ice-blue sword Zeng appeared in her hand.

Under the effect of soul power, the blade of this long sword once again showed a texture like an ice spirit.

Huo Yutong took a deep breath, checked his equipment, activated the soul power sensing device on the martial soul battle armor, and walked towards the interior of the gloomy forest without looking back.

Qian Chaoguang's soul injuries are still getting worse, and it's time to move on.

In the gray mist, the pink-gold spiritual realm constantly reflected the scene in front of him.

On top of the strangely twisted trees, the wood grain of the bark is twisted like a human face wailing.

Some of the trees were entrenched together like pythons, and the dark purple vines bobbed some kind of dark blue, half-fist-sized fruit.

It looked like a mutated apple.

Huo Yutong took out a metal knife made of stainless steel and touched it gently, and the sharp tip of the knife turned into nothingness as if it evaporated the moment it touched the blue fruit.

"What the hell is this......" In the sea of spirits, the Snow Emperor couldn't help but sigh.

In this place, even the well-informed she felt helpless, and even she didn't know as much as Huo Yutong.

Everything that existed in the underworld challenged the worldview that had taken her nearly 700,000 years to build.

The octagonal ice grass is dutifully manipulating the soul power detection function to scan all directions.

Hearing Xue Di's complaint, it also released an emotion of approval.

The "Poison Sutra" left by Tang San before his ascension didn't know how many times he had read it in his spare time.

But whether it is medicine or poison, there is no record of plants in the underworld.

As a result, the Octagonal Xuanbing Grass now has a strong sense of frustration, feeling that he can't help with anything, so he can only be a spectator.

Just when the Octagonal Xuanbing Grass felt a little self-pitying, suddenly, the soul detection module it was controlling suddenly erupted with a strong hint and flicker.

The tight "Didi" sound was almost connected into a string, and it sounded wildly in Huo Yutong's spiritual sea.

No matter which direction the Octagonal Xuanbing Grass aimed the soul power probe, this thing was constantly ringing wildly.

"Octagon, you come to take over all the rights to use the Martial Spirit Warframe, and I'll go out to help." Xue Di's expression suddenly became serious.

As soon as the light on his body flashed, the whole person had already appeared in the outside world in a soul state and came to Huo Yutong's side.

Two blood-red light streaks flickered from under the ribs of the Martial Soul Battle Armor, which meant that the Octagonal Xuanbing Grass had taken over the main auxiliary control system of the Martial Soul Battle Armor.

The meaning of purple gold in Huo Yutong's eyes was revealed, and he held the long sword tightly in his hand, and the yin and yang complementary twin soul cores were fully operational for the first time after reaching the underworld, gathering the soul power to the extreme.

"Snow Emperor, I feel strong malice." Huo Yutong opened his mouth and said, "The spiritual realm is not real, and there are a large number of shadows of the Mohu Lake that are gathering in our direction. ”

"Isn't it a human soul body?"

Snow Emperor said as he came to the rear of the trailer.

A long sword that was the same as a touch also appeared in her hand, and the white light continued to ripple outward from the blade, exuding a sharp aura.

It's just that its long sword looks a bit illusory, and it is completely condensed by spiritual power.

"No, no one should have the tranquility after death." Huo Yutong pondered and said, "From those large clouds of shadows, I only feel a pure negative aura, which is eager to kill and devour. ”

"Looks like we have to fight." The Snow Emperor nodded, "Little boy, remember to save soul power, don't use soul skills if you can, try to ...... with spiritual power"

Before the Snow Emperor's words fell, the pink-gold spiritual realm instantly shook violently, as if it had suffered some kind of heavy blow.

The gray mist came with an unprecedented speed and quality, making the spiritual realm seem to be on the verge of extinguishing.

The Eye of Destiny on Huo Yutong's forehead shone brightly, and the spiritual power that was constantly replenished forcibly pushed through the gray mist, lighting up the surroundings again.

Before she could speak, a screeching sound that made the roots of her teeth sour came from the gray mist.

There was some kind of unique psychic attack in the midst of a strong scream.

Circles of invisible ripples slammed into the Martial Spirit Battle Armor, causing a series of light waves to flicker before reverberating.

It was Yin Laix's extremely effective soul protection enchanted on the martial soul armor, which had an effect.

This also means that this kind of screaming is not meaningless, but produces strong soul shocks and mental disturbances.

Huo Yutong flipped his wrist, his body turned around for half a circle, and the long sword in his hand slashed cleanly in the direction of the scream.

Between the buzzing of the sword body, a fierce ice attribute sword qi formed a white light, which split along with the gray mist like Moses dividing the sea.

A dark gray shadow monster with a wolf-like head but a large mustang-like body and a tiger's tail was cracked in half in an instant.

But it doesn't end there.

Just a second after it was cut open, the body that had broken in two magically bonded back together.

Aside from the fact that its body color seems to have changed slightly, it doesn't seem to be the same as before.

But both the Snow Emperor and Huo Yutong were obviously aware that after being cut open once, its strength had decreased.

Under the illumination of the spiritual realm running at full power, what was happening in the gray mist was visible at a glance.

These dark gray shadow monsters simply can't hide their form through the environment.

One monster after another kept rushing out of the gray mist, and their dark red eyes stared at Xue Di and Huo Yutong as if they were looking at a good meal.

The strong soul aura was constantly stirring at this moment, and it was the undisguised violence and killing intent released by a large number of shadow monsters.

These monsters keep appearing, accumulating more and more.

Some of them are like stitching monsters made up of various soul beast parts.

Some have human-like forms, but have beast-like claws and sharp teeth.

Others are simply a large group of souls that constantly change shapes, randomly changing various tentacles and wrists.

That extremely slippery form made Huo Yutong feel a little numb in his scalp.

Even the ugliest abomination in the half-plane is many times more kind than the monsters in front of them.

At a certain moment, all the shadow monsters collectively unleashed a terrifying scream that was almost indescribable.

Intense negative forces almost filled the place, constantly releasing violent mental disturbances and soul shocks that could be described as terrifying.

The next moment, they roared towards where the two of them were.

Huo Yutong and Emperor Xue simply jumped on the trailer reflexively, standing directly on the black sarcophagus and fighting the invading enemy back to back.

"Attack the middle of their dark red eyes! That's the heart of it! This is an aberrant soul! ”

The long sword in Huo Yutong's hand was agitated, and he raised his hand to stab the three-foot Qingfeng into the eyes of a monster, and then pierced it from behind.

Gently lifting upward, the dark gray skull suddenly burst out of it, exploding into a dark red air mass.

The sarcoma-like dark red air mass was split in two, and a small crystal burst out of it, splashing outward, and rolling to the ground beside it.

The remaining body of the shadow monster fell weakly in convulsions, and its body continued to disintegrate, turning into black smoke and dissipating without a trace.

Emperor Xue didn't know what a deformed soul body was, but years of trust made her subconsciously follow Huo Yutong's words.

The imperial sword, which is completely condensed by spiritual power, is as handy as a butterfly in the hands of the Snow Emperor.

Often, with just a few picks and thorns, a deformed soul body can be cleanly resolved.

The complete transformation of oneself into a soul state certainly brings a lot of inconvenience.

But it is also corresponding, and it also brings Xue Di a convenience that he never had when he had a body before.

Velocity.

Extreme speed.

No matter how fast the body is, it can't be faster than the mind.

Back then, when he had not yet become a soul, the speed of the attack would be restricted by the body, and the speed of the flow of soul power would be restricted.

But now, the Snow Emperor in the soul state really made a lightning speed.

In a flash, the enemy skulled.

The only thing that could affect her was the speed at which her soul was completely condensed and the strength of her spiritual power.

That's why the Black Knights are the melee kings of the undead, as they're born with souls that are incredibly powerful and don't need any extra distractions.

Huo Yutong stood on top of the black coffin, the long sword in his hand flew up and down, slashing the deformed soul body that was constantly flying under the sword.

The Eye of Destiny on her forehead remained open, continuously outgoing a massive amount of spiritual power through the pink core circle.

The black airflow that the distorted soul transforms after its death almost renders the place black.

Massive amounts of black crystals burst out of their "brains", everywhere in the circle.

The strength of these aberrant soul bodies is not strong, and it can even be said to be extremely weak, and it is generally equivalent to the level of a soul master and a great soul master.

Occasionally, there are a few powerful heads, and they don't exceed the Soul Venerable level at most.

For Huo Yutong and Emperor Xue, fighting an enemy of this level was tantamount to mowing grass in a simple mode in the Great Snake Peerless.

But now the question is......

There is simply too much grass to be mowed.

Although the strength of the aberrant souls was low, their number seemed to be endless, and they gathered more and more here, almost filling a radius of several kilometers.

They have no intelligence, no fear, only a desire for a pure soul and a killing instinct driven by obsession.

Countless screams rang out from their mouths, ripples spreading in circles toward the center.

On top of the Martial Soul Battle Armor, the Octagonal Xuanbing Grass controlled the soul protection to continuously release a glow, blocking the spiritual attacks jointly released by these aberrant soul bodies.

"Snow Emperor, something is wrong."

Huo Yutong released Dao Dao sword qi in his hand, and cooperated with the soul judgment to instantly empty a large chunk of the deformed soul body that had been piled up in front of him.

"The number of aberrant souls is still increasing at an alarming rate, and after a long battle, their number has increased instead of decreasing!"

"More and more? How many of them are there!? ”

The Snow Emperor was slightly startled, raised his hand and slammed out a palm, killing the enemy who would commit the crime.

She didn't have the spiritual realm like Huo Yutong, and after being separated, she couldn't share the effects of her skills, her vision and perception ability were severely limited, and she could only feel a steady stream of distorted soul bodies.

Without the cooperation of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force and the Ice Element, this made the Snow Emperor very uncomfortable.

Except for the Snow Emperor's Three Uniques, which she was proud of, the rest could only rely on spiritual power and the soul itself to fight.

But now the embarrassing thing is that even if the Snow Emperor is the third absolute one, she doesn't dare to use it easily-because it will consume the already tight soul power in Huo Yutong's body.

Killing the enemy with physical skills alone is really too inefficient.

If you can unscrupulously use a wide range of soul skill attacks, not to mention just the right one, even if you have ten times more distorted soul bodies?

"I don't know how many, I can't count them! They fill my spiritual realm, and the density is rising! Snow Emperor, we must retreat and return to the Purple Grass Wasteland. There are no aberrant souls there, maybe they can't get by. ”

Huo Yutong gritted his teeth, popped out five light blades on his right hand, and swung forward.

The pink-gold five light blades directly annihilated a large number of deformed soul bodies like sky-tearing claws, and the black crystals crackled and fell to the ground.

The formation of the two besieging them instantly exposed a large blank space.

But judging by the speed at which the aberrant souls surged up again, this void could only last for a few seconds.

These monsters, who don't know what pain and fear are, seem to have no retreat in their hearts.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Huo Yutong's mental power suddenly retracted.

With a sweep, he pocketed all the large number of black crystals that had fallen, and then quickly turned the front of the car and rushed in the direction he came.

"Now, let's go!"

The team of two began to make their way through the gloomy forest shrouded in gray mist.

I'm afraid that unless they are present at the scene in person, no one may be able to imagine that the powerful combination of Emperor Xue and Huo Yutong will be forced to retreat strategically by a group of aberrant soul bodies that do not even have the highest Soul Sect.

Without any soul power replenishment, and they couldn't see how many enemies there were, the two of them didn't dare to risk staying any longer.

It's just a little ugly to go now, and if you don't go, you may have no face in the future.

Huo Yutong dragged and rammed forward, the long sword in his left hand and the dark gold terror claw in his right hand opened the bow left and right.

In the gray mist, there were constantly aberrant souls that turned into black air currents and disappeared under her terrifying attacks.

Under the serious attack of one move and one style, these monsters with weak combat power were not Huo Yutong's enemies at all.

If they appeared on the Douluo Continent, Mo said that they would be able to force the two of them to retreat.

You can't even get up close!

The Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array, which consisted of a full three hundred and sixty-five floating soul guide cannons, was not a vegetarian.

Unfortunately, there are no ifs.

At the end of the trailer, the Snow Emperor almost incarnates into a humanoid spinning top.

The Emperor Sword condensed by spiritual power in his hand was almost to the extreme, constantly reaping the lives of one distorted soul body after another.
