To be the best leader, you must also be the strongest leader!

Soon Sun Yi saw a large number of ghosts appearing around him. These ghosts had strange shapes, some looked like monsters, and some looked like humans.

Each ghost stared at Sun Yi and Elder Jin Jue with red eyes, with bloodthirsty glint in their eyes. Some of the ghosts had very strong auras and had already reached the great perfection of the foundation-building stage, and there were quite a few of them.

"Oh no, there are too many ghosts down there, we must leave immediately!" Sun Yi's expression suddenly changed.

Elder Jin Jue, who was attacking the red-eyed ghost bird, also noticed the movements around him and his expression became very ugly. His cultivation was powerful, but it was being consumed very quickly.

"I'll take you away!"

Elder Jin Jue rolled up his true energy and prepared to take Sun Yi away from the air.

However, before taking off, the sky suddenly darkened and a dark cloud covered the sky above.

Sun Yi took a closer look and his expression suddenly became very ugly. This was not a dark cloud at all, but a collection of countless ghosts.

A large number of ghosts gathered together and were rushing towards Sun Yi and his group from the sky. Although they had not yet landed, Sun Yi could already feel the aura emitted by these ghosts, and among them there were actually ghosts in the Jindan stage.

"No, the way up is blocked. Change direction and go over there!"

Sun Yi quickly observed the surrounding environment and finally determined that there was the least number of ghosts in one direction. He hurriedly called on Elder Jin Jue to take Sun Yi to rush in that direction.

When the ghosts on the opposite side saw Sun Yi and Elder Jin Jue rushing towards them, they roared and rushed forward, trying to stop Sun Yi and Elder Jin Jue.

"Go away!"

Elder Jin Jue roared angrily, and the flying sword turned into a dazzling golden light and instantly killed into the ghosts. In an instant, dozens of ghosts were torn to pieces.

A gap appeared in front of Sun Yi and Elder Jin Jue, and Elder Jin Jue hurriedly took Sun Yi and rushed into the gap.

However, another group of ghosts immediately blocked the way and rushed towards Elder Jin Jue and Sun Yi desperately.

Elder Jin Jue continued to use his sword skills, and the golden flying sword tore the ghosts into pieces.

"Master, be careful. Don't let the ghosts get close to you. Once these ghosts get close to us, they will devour the essence in our bodies, which will be very troublesome." Jin Jue led Sun Yi forward, attacking the ghosts that blocked the way, and kept reminding Sun Yi.

Sun Yi nodded seriously. He had read the records about ghosts and knew that ghosts liked to devour the essence of goods. If some living things were targeted by ghosts, they would soon be sucked dry and turned into skin and bones, and their end would be miserable.

Sun Yi didn't want to become like what was recorded in the books, so he was not idle at this time. He kept attacking with the golden Dragon Roar Sword. Although it could not deal with powerful ghosts, it was still no problem to deal with some weak ghosts, which could reduce some pressure on Elder Jin Jue.

Fortunately, there are the least number of ghosts at this location, otherwise Sun Yi and Elder Jin Jue would be in even greater trouble.

The two fought their way forward, and after two hours, they finally broke out of the encirclement of ghosts. However, the dark clouds above their heads were still not far away, and Elder Jin Jue did not dare to take Sun Yi into the air.

Suddenly, Elder Jin Jue and Sun Yi broke through a layer of black fog, and the scene in front of them suddenly changed.

"Hey, this is..."

Sun Yi looked at the strange scene in front of him with shock. In front of him was a huge space the size of a football field, with a huge rotating funnel in the center.

Sun Yi raised his head and looked upwards, only to see that the funnel was so huge that he could not see the end at all.

"Could this be the center and bottom of the Soul Refining Valley?"

Recalling the appearance of the Soul Refining Valley that he had observed from the air before, Sun Yi suddenly realized that he and Elder Jin Jue had now arrived at the center and bottom of the Soul Refining Valley.

The huge vortex that appeared before their eyes was exactly the one they had seen in the air before.

"I didn't expect the bottom of the Soul Refining Valley to be like this. Hey, look, there are a lot of ghosts in that vortex." Elder Jin Jue looked at the vortex in the distance in surprise.

Sun Yi also looked carefully and saw that there were indeed many ghosts trapped in the vortex. These ghosts were struggling in the vortex, trying to break free from the vortex, but they had no way.

When these ghosts were pulled downwards by the vortex, they were finally unable to withstand the tearing force of the vortex and were gradually torn to pieces.

"Oh no, the ghost is catching up!"

At this time, the ghosts that they had just gotten rid of had caught up with them, and there were more of them than before, led by three Jindan stage ghosts.

After Elder Jin Jue sensed these three Jindan-stage ghosts, his expression turned extremely ugly.

Having just gone through a great battle, Elder Jin Jue now had less than 30% of his true energy remaining in his body. He was at his weakest, and it was very dangerous even for him to face so many powerful ghosts.

"Keep moving forward!" Sun Yi made a prompt decision and took Elder Jin Jue directly to the bottom of the vortex.

Although the vortex funnel seemed to be right in front of them from where they were standing, it was actually still a long way away.

Elder Jin Jue's true energy wrapped around Sun Yi as he flew at a low altitude. They were less than three kilometers away from the bottom of the vortex funnel. However, at this moment, something strange suddenly happened.

Sun Yi suddenly felt a mysterious force acting on him. The true energy in his body was instantly imprisoned and completely lost its effect. At the same time, a huge gravity acted on him, making Sun Yigang feel as if a huge rock was pressing down on his shoulders.

"not good!"

Elder Jin Jue cried out in shock, his face changed drastically, and the true energy in his body instantly went out of control. He was also affected by a powerful gravity, and his body fell uncontrollably.

Boom boom!

With two loud bangs, Elder Jin Jue and Sun Yi slammed heavily onto the hard ground like two huge rocks.

The two men smashed two large holes in the hard ground, and cracks were all around them.

puff!

Elder Jin Jue was lying in the big pit, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and his face suddenly turned pale.

Although Sun Yi was also hit hard by the fall, he was not injured because of his strong body. He hurriedly got up, only to feel that his whole body was subjected to dozens of times the gravity, which greatly affected his movements.

"Elder Jin Jue, how are you?" Sun Yi hurriedly helped Elder Jin Jue up and checked on his condition with concern.

Elder Jin Jue quickly took out a vitality pill and swallowed it, then looked around solemnly: "It seems we have entered the legendary land of spiritual energy."

"What is the forbidden land for spirits?" This was the first time Sun Yi had heard of this name. He had never seen it in any of the classics he had read before.

Elder Jin Jue quickly explained, "The Forbidden Spirit Land is a place where the spiritual energy and true qi of heaven and earth are completely forbidden. Simply put, it is a forbidden area for cultivators. Anyone who is in the Forbidden Spirit Land can only use the strength of the flesh and cannot activate any true qi."

"There is actually such a place in this world where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is completely forbidden and one can only use the strength of the physical body. It is simply unbelievable." Sun Yi felt it carefully and found that there was indeed no spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the surrounding heaven and earth.
