The female supporting character in the cultivation world only wants to grow flowers and become stron

Just as Lin Yitang and Li Wuwang were discussing how to allocate roles in preparation for defeating the ghost cultivator.

Sudden.

The surrounding environment has undergone subtle changes.

A chilling atmosphere gradually filled the once calm air. Water droplets on the stone walls began to condense into frost, and the ground became slippery.

Lin Yitang keenly sensed something was wrong. She warily looked around and saw what appeared to be countless pairs of eyes flashing in the darkness. Her heart tightened, and she whispered to Li Wuwang, "Senior brother, be careful! The ghost cultivators are here!"

Before they finished speaking, ghostly figures emerged from the darkness and surrounded them.

These ghost cultivators came in various forms; some had severed limbs, others had faces covered in blood, but without exception, they all had ferocious expressions, baring their teeth and looking extremely terrifying. They were all shrouded in a thick layer of black mist, making them difficult to see clearly.

At first, only a few ghost cultivators appeared, but soon, more and more ghost cultivators surged in from all directions, seemingly without end.

Lin Yitang and Li Wuwang then realized that they were surrounded.

These ghost cultivators come and go without a trace. In addition, the place is cold and dark, which conceals their aura and form, allowing them to gather in such large numbers without anyone noticing!

The battle broke out instantly.

Li Wuwang formed hand seals and activated the spiritual power within his body, instantly creating a surging torrent of water that swept away all the approaching ghost cultivators.

However, even more ghost cultivators surged in from all directions, appearing from afar like a black tide, mixed with the waters of the Yin River as they swept in. Many of these ghost cultivators emerged from the Yin River!

Lin Yitang, wielding a long saber, moved with incredible agility, weaving through the horde of ghost cultivators like a dragon. With flashes of light, ghost cultivators were slain one by one, blood and black mist filling the air, creating a chilling and terrifying scene.

Defeating ghost cultivators is easy; all it takes is a powerful enough impact to destroy their spiritual bodies. However, the number of ghost cultivators is simply too vast; they are endless and cannot be seen to end.

Countless ghost cultivators rushed towards Lin Yitang and Li Wuwang one after another. Although most of them were eliminated by their attacks, one or two of them were able to break through the defenses and cause them damage.

Li Wuwang's clothes were torn in several places, and Lin Yitang's arms also had several bloody marks. But they both knew that they could not relax their guard at all now.

Surrounded by so many ghost cultivators, if one panics for even a second, one will fall into their trap.

It's important to understand that the spiritual energy of ghost cultivators inherently carries various negative influences, capable of impacting a cultivator's mind and spiritual platform. Once negative emotions arise, they are amplified infinitely. If the thought of giving up takes hold, the ghost cultivator will seize the opportunity, leaving only death as a possibility!

So the two of them stood back to back, entrusting each other with their backs for protection. At the same time, they quickened their pace and rhythm, trying to leave this place before their spiritual energy was exhausted.

The battle reached a stalemate, and both Lin Yitang and Li Wuwang felt unprecedented pressure. Although these ghost cultivators lacked intelligence, they displayed formidable fighting power through instinct and ferocity.

They are cold and ruthless, like demons from hell, sending chills down your spine.

"These ghost cultivators are really troublesome!" Li Wuwang said in a low voice, his voice revealing a hint of fatigue.

Lin Yitang tightened her grip on the knife, gritting her teeth as she said, "Hold on! As long as we can hold out until we reach the Yin Spirit Spring, these ghost cultivators' abilities will weaken. They won't be able to withstand the immense spiritual energy of the Yin Spirit Spring and will be overwhelmed and explode."

The two fought the ghost cultivators while slowly moving forward. Most of these ghost cultivators were only at the early stage of Qi Refining, and were not particularly strong. They were probably some newly arrived ghosts who had not yet fully transformed into ghost cultivators.

However, their advantage lies in their large numbers and their tenacity. Lacking intelligence, as long as they are not completely eliminated, they will relentlessly attack them like hungry wolves smelling blood, showing no fear of death whatsoever.

As they ventured deeper into the cave, they discovered that the ghost cultivators seemed to be getting stronger the further they went.

At first, they mostly encountered ghost cultivators at the early stage of Qi Refining, but gradually, a few ghost cultivators at the middle stage of Qi Refining began to appear sporadically. Later on, even ghost cultivators at the late stage of Qi Refining appeared!

These stronger ghost cultivators put even more pressure on them. Not only were their attacks more powerful, but they were also more cunning, knowing how to use their surroundings to launch sneak attacks. Several times, the two narrowly escaped being caught in their traps.

"Junior sister, it seems we can't fight these ghost cultivators anymore. We should hurry to the Yin Spirit Spring!" Li Wuwang said to Lin Yitang while casting a spell to knock away the upper body of a ghost cultivator.

A hint of seriousness flashed in Lin Yitang's eyes: "Yes, we don't necessarily have to defeat these ghost cultivators. Our goal is simply to obtain the spirit spring. So we need to hurry and find the Yin Spirit Spring as soon as possible!"

The two quickened their pace, weaving swiftly through the group of ghost cultivators, dodging their attacks with speed, as if recreating the scene of Lin Yitang in the first round of the outer disciple competition.

Li Wuwang formed hand seals and activated the spiritual power within his body, instantly creating a mist that enveloped the surrounding ghost cultivators.

He moved swiftly forward, using the mist as cover. He was using the "Mist Spell" from the water element, which could create a thick fog, making it difficult to track him.

Lin Yitang, however, was even more impressive. With a swift turn, she merged directly into the mist, disappearing from her spot. When she reappeared, she was already several feet away, her speed astonishing.

Li Wuwang was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected Lin Yitang to be so fast, almost comparable to him.

He couldn't help but ask, "Junior sister, what kind of magic is that? The speed is so fast!"

As Lin Yitang moved quickly, she replied casually, "It's nothing, just a stealth technique."

Escape technique? Li Wuwang was taken aback upon hearing this.

Escape techniques are a high-level spell in the cultivation world, allowing one to instantly teleport, a power many cultivators dream of. He never expected that this usually unassuming junior sister would possess such a profound spell, and judging from her skillful use of it, she had clearly reached a state of perfection.

"I never expected my junior sister to know the art of escape!"

Li Wuwang was shocked. He remembered Lin Yitang's true identity—a personal disciple of True Monarch Xuanhui.

As a renowned True Monarch in the cultivation world, True Monarch Xuanhui possesses top-tier strength and insight. Lin Yitang's talent and hard work are undoubtedly exceptional, given that she received his personal guidance.

Watching Lin Yitang's retreating figure, he couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. This new junior sister was not only incredibly skilled with her swords, but her magical abilities were also astounding.

This was a blow to him, who was originally a top genius in the inner sect of Taique Sect.
