Quick Wear: To get home quickly, do the task

On the contrary, it is unknown whether the pool of black water formed by the yin energy was naturally formed or man-made.

The two used their wild imagination to speculate why zombies wanted to eat the souls of Wuji Sect disciples.

The small branch in the space couldn't stand the two people's increasingly outrageous speculations anymore.

"Sister, that was a low-level zombie. Its soul was not absorbed by him, but by Yin Ye Lian."

"what?"

Yuan Feng was shocked!

She knew that Yin Ye Lian had absorbed over thirty souls in Wuji Sect. But it didn't make sense for it to only absorb souls from Wuji Sect; perhaps it had absorbed all the souls in the surrounding area.

The souls of these immortal cultivators will eventually dissipate, so the karmic consequences might not be that severe. But if the souls of ordinary people were absorbed, wouldn't that cut off their reincarnation path? How severe would that karmic consequence be?

And Yinye Lian belongs to me now, so wouldn’t these causes and effects involve me as well?

"Sister, don't overthink it. The souls of the Wuji Sect's disciples were supposed to return to heaven and earth, and Yin Ye Lian sucking them here is actually a blessing in disguise."

"Tell me carefully."

"The Yin-Leaf Lotus is a treasure that can connect the human world to the underworld. I've only heard of it, but this is the first time I've seen it. However, the Yin-Leaf Lotus absorbs souls not to transform them into nutrients, but out of instinct.

The disciples of Wuji Sect should have all been reincarnated."

"instinct?"

"It was previously ownerless, and still a juvenile, so all its actions were based on instinct. Seeing a soul, it absorbed it and sent it to the underworld."

"Why do you think you look a bit like a human when you say that?"

"Sister, a treasure like this one has its own responsibilities when it is born, and it is normal for such a treasure to be born with spirituality."

That makes sense.

"You said it's still a juvenile. How can it grow if it's put into space? Do I also need to put some Yin energy into the space?"

"No need, sister. The Yin Qi Lotus is a spiritual creature and needs spiritual energy to grow. Although there is no spiritual energy in the cave yet, we have spiritual stones that can temporarily provide it with absorption.

And it is called Yinyelian because it can open the door to the underworld.

The pool of black water formed by the Yin energy was the Yin energy that leaked out when it opened the door to the underworld.

The Yin Qi Lotus cannot move on its own yet, and soaking in Yin Qi for a long time is not good for its growth."

It turned out to be the case.

However, when he looked up and saw his senior brother staring at the soul orb, he didn't know whether he should tell him about this.

It is not clear whether this news is good or bad for the eldest brother.

It is a good thing, as it gives the souls of the junior brothers, who should have dissipated between heaven and earth, the opportunity to reincarnate.

It is said to be a bad thing because the Wuji Sect has the ability to revive souls.

The only consolation is that the Wuji Sect does not have enough Yinchen Wood and Amethyst to revive all the disciples, but the Yinye Lotus allows all the disciples to reincarnate.

I don't know if this can be calculated this way...

Forget it, let’s not talk about it. If they are destined to be together, they will meet again in this world sooner or later.

However, there is still a mystery that has not been solved. Why did the black fog not appear when everyone entered the mountain gate, but instead appeared as soon as someone left?

Doesn't the Yin Ye Lian only absorb souls unconsciously? Then why doesn't it let the living leave?

“I guess this might be the result of a mistake.

"Sister, have you ever thought about why the Yin Qi can penetrate into the sect but not into the outside world?"

Yuan Feng continued, "So this tomb might have a natural formation or something, so the Yin energy won't leak out.

When the Wuji Sect landed here, it was wrapped in a magic weapon. The sharpness of the magic weapon plus the weight of the sect caused a corner of the formation to be broken, and the magic weapon was also damaged, so the Yin energy seeped into the Wuji Sect from the damaged area.

But what does this have to do with the black fog preventing the living from leaving?"

"Think about it, sister. When we found the zombie, it didn't look like it had just awakened. Instead, as soon as you broke the stone slab that could block your consciousness, it broke open the coffin and came up to kill you and Wu Dian.

It can be confirmed that the stone slab can not only block the spiritual consciousness, but also prevent the zombies from leaving the tomb.

Although the zombie had no consciousness, it had the basic sense of seeking benefits and avoiding harm, which made it know that the people here could not be allowed to leave. Otherwise, there was such a strong yin energy here. Once people knew about it, it would probably attract some demon-slaying and righteous people, or its natural enemies.

But it can't come out to stop it, so it can only drive out the Yin energy to trap the living to death. As for those who come in from outside, it has little to do with it, so it just leaves them alone."

Yuan Feng followed this line of thought and felt that this might really be the truth.

But he added one more sentence.

"Another point: perhaps for unknown reasons, the zombies can't touch the stone slab. Otherwise, with their strength, it would be easy to break through. And the living people they didn't kill might be hoping someone could break through the stone slab so they can get out."

"Yes, sister, that's possible."

......

The experiences of the past two days have been quite tortuous. Everything was based on accidents and supplemented by guesswork.

But speaking of it, everyone participated in this mission except Xiaotian who was sleeping in the cave. I don’t know if this can be considered an alternative team building.

He looked at the soul bead and saw that it was still absorbing. The pool of black water looked small, but the black energy that had penetrated into the Wuji Sect was enough to kill so many people. It was conceivable that it would take too long to absorb it all.

Yuan Feng was not planning to wait for the senior brother, after all, the little void beast and the little fox were still upstairs.

Then he looked at the eldest brother and said, "Fellow Daoist, my companions are still up there. Now that we can leave the mountain gate, we are ready to leave. They also have the items in your sect's treasure pavilion. Do you think they can help you get them?"

"No need, these are also your opportunities. I don't know how long I will be here, so I won't see you off. After you leave, I will close the mountain gate for a while, resurrect my junior brother first, and I also need to recuperate my body.

When my junior brother and I go down the mountain someday, we'll meet again if we're lucky."

"it is good."

After saying goodbye to his senior brother, Yuan Feng returned to the main hall along the same route.

At this time, everyone was still in a coma, and Li Lang was still nowhere to be seen. He was probably hiding behind and didn't dare to come out.

This won't do. It's ok for Zhao Wan to win without any effort, but Li Lang will have to pay a price for his effortless victory.

So he gave the little void beast a few instructions.

Then Yuan Feng used his spiritual consciousness to help the little fox get rid of the illusion, and then put the little fox into the space.

Everyone woke up one after another.

"Hey, what's going on?"

"I don't know. Let's take a quick look to see if there are any missing people."

After counting, only Li Lang was missing.

Some suggested going to look for it, while others suggested waiting here.

Some people also speculated that this was the reason why everyone fell into a coma when the black fog appeared.

Yuan Feng also pretended to have just woken up.
