Chen Yun leaped down from the pile of fish and shrimps.

What appeared before my eyes was a very soft black sand.

And on the ground were footprints left by several men running just now.

Looking at the footprints in front of him, Chen Yun walked slowly forward and followed.

At the same time, a faint smell of blood came towards me.

Chen Yun trimmed his nose and walked forward without any fear.

In just the time it took to eat a meal, tiny dots of light blue light spread out.

What appeared before my eyes was a pitch-black place.

Looking closely, there is an exit flashing blue light.

It is only about ten feet in size, just enough for one person to pass through.

Chen Yun did not hesitate, but slowly stepped out of the cave.

At this time, several aborigines dressed in black stepped forward quickly, holding swords and looking at Chen Yun with great vigilance.

"Who are you? Where are Ah Hu and the others? Are they new guys from outside?"

A thin middle-aged man in his forties stared at Chen Yun.

Behind him were more than twenty young men dressed very similarly to him, looking at Chen Yun with different expressions.

Chen Yun glanced at everyone and said calmly: "If I'm not mistaken, I should be the outsider you are talking about."

Hearing this, the middle-aged monk's expression relaxed, and then nodded, saying: "I guessed it even if you didn't say it. After all, only outsiders would dress like you in such a strange way. But you are lucky to meet us."

"Most outsiders become food for the Yin beasts before they even meet us."

As he spoke, he waved his hand gently, and the man and woman behind him quickly retracted their swords.

During this time, Chen Yun also looked around.

Chen Yun was standing in front of a small rocky mountain, and all he could see was a dark yellow desert, the extent of which was unknown.

Looking up, all that appeared before my eyes was a vast expanse of pitch-black clouds with no end in sight.

And in the dark clouds, there were several deep blue lightning bolts that kept jumping and bouncing, illuminating the place with a light blue color, which looked extremely strange.

The lean man glanced at the two of them and said calmly, "You are unlucky this time. You actually encountered an explosion of Absolute Spiritual Energy that occurs once every hundred years. Otherwise, you wouldn't have ended up like this."

Chen Yun pretended to be surprised, and bowed to him, saying, "I don't know where this place is. It looks like this place is very dangerous."

Upon hearing this, the thin man sneered: "Hehe, this is not dangerous at all. No matter what your status is outside, there is nothing special here. You all have to contribute your strength."

"For those who don't make any contribution, the end result is raising Yin beasts."

At this point, the thin man did not say much, but waved his hand impatiently and said: "Now is an extraordinary period, I don't have time to explain to you two outsiders, let's talk about everything after we return to the world."

"Quickly seal this secret exit and save it for later use."

As soon as he finished speaking, several men and women quickly walked over, picked up stones, and quickly blocked the exit.

The lean man looked up at the dark clouds in the sky and said grimly, "Let's go. If everything goes well, Ah Hu and the others should meet us on the road to Huziai."

After saying that, he no longer paid any attention to Chen Yun and turned to walk away.

Chen Yun gently touched the Soul-Crying Beast and walked slowly forward.

Due to the small and cute appearance of the Soul-Crying Beast, no one paid their attention to it.

Just think of it as a very ordinary little animal.

The group of dozens of people walked for nearly half a cup of tea.

"Hoohoo!"

At this moment, a shrill whistle suddenly came from the distance.

Chen Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately looked in the direction of the voice.

Suddenly, a yellow dragon appeared in the desert on one side, flying towards this side with smoke and dust rolling.

"It's Ah Hu and the others!"

A very young man with a childish face shouted in surprise. The others also got excited.

The thin man nodded, a look of relief showing on his face, but his smile froze immediately.

Because at this time, several sharp roars came from the yellow dragon.

"Everyone hurry over to help, they are being chased by the Yin Beast."

The man's face changed drastically and he roared angrily. He pulled out the white long knife at his waist and rushed forward like a flying man.

The other men and women also suddenly realized what was going on, drew their swords, and ran forward to meet the enemy.

Looking at those Yin beasts that are half a meter in size, the aura they emit is not strong.

Although these people have no cultivation, they all have martial arts skills, so it should not be difficult for them to deal with these evil beasts.

Those men and women rushed into the yellow dragon in the blink of an eye. There was a loud roar of beasts inside. The yellow dragon stopped suddenly and turned into a ball of yellow mist, flying in all directions.

In the thick smoke and dust, the shouts, screams and unknown roars of men and women were intertwined.

After a full cup of tea, the sound gradually became lower and lower, and finally everything returned to calm.

Then, those men and women walked out from the dust, their bodies covered with blood, whether it was animal blood or human blood, but everyone had a smile on their face, and it seemed that they had reaped a great harvest.

Among them, the man called Ah Hu led several men carrying bags on their backs.

A slight fishy smell came from several people.

Apparently, these people were the ones who collected fish and shrimp in the cave before.

With the addition of these people, the team moved forward faster.

After walking for an hour, they finally walked out of the desert and saw a pile of dark rocks in front of them.

Just like the desert, Chen Yun couldn't tell how wide these piles of rocks were, except that he couldn't see the end for the moment.

But the stones in the pile were all strangely shaped and black in color, giving Chen Yun an eerie feeling and making him extremely uncomfortable.

But when this group of people saw this place, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and their faces showed relief.

This is where these indigenous people settled and rested.

At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly became unstable, and blue lightning became very frequent.

From time to time, several of them appeared out of thin air and fell heavily on the ground nearby.

A series of stone pits of varying sizes were left behind.

The crowd circled around in the pile of rocks, and soon a tall, black stone wall appeared before them.

These stone walls are all built piece by piece with huge stones about ten feet tall, and are twenty to thirty feet high.

The distance between the left and right ends of the stone wall is more than a thousand feet wide.

And every few feet, a piece of sharpened hard wood would extend out from the wall, looking ferocious and sinister.

On the front side, there is a suspended wooden door, standing majestically.

A man holding a white spear stood here vigilantly.

The guard in the distance, upon seeing the thin man returning, immediately showed excitement on his face and kept waving his right hand.

"Boom!"

With a loud roar, the huge wooden door fell heavily.

Everyone stepped through the wooden door and entered the house.

The guards ignored Chen Yun, the outsider, and instead looked at the bags. As the bags opened and the fish and shrimps were revealed, everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Looking at the reactions of the crowd, Chen Yun did not find anything unusual.

Here, humans, underworld beasts, and demon beasts coexist.

As expected, the human race is the weakest, and if they want to obtain that little bit of food resources, they will have to pay a huge price.

Therefore, in the entire Yinming land, apart from the Yinming Beast Crystals, the most valuable thing is food.

Chen Yun looked around. The entire village was completely surrounded by huge stone walls. All the buildings in the middle of the village were built with pitch-black stones. Most of them were rough and square in shape.

The most eye-catching thing is the stone platform in the center of the village.

It was about thirty or forty feet high, and a faint purple aura gushed out from the stone platform, completely enveloping the entire village.

Whenever blue lightning fell from the sky into the village, it would be immediately absorbed by the purple mist.

This is the stone rune unique to the Yin and Ming land. It is made with special runes on the stone and activated with Yin and Ming beast crystals.

Of course, this was not Chen Yun's purpose for coming here.

Since the birth of the Yinming Land, a large number of cultivators have fallen into it, including many cultivators who have reached the Nascent Soul stage.

The storage bags and magical tools are probably gone long ago, but the skills left behind by these cultivators are the most precious treasures.

In the original novel, a small and inconspicuous cultivator from the Tianfu Sect had a spirit-summoning talisman.

This is a rare talisman that can be used in cross-level combat, and it can also be effective against Nascent Soul cultivators.

Chen Yun naturally would not miss it.

At this moment, a hall much larger than an ordinary tall house appeared before their eyes.

At the door, several people were pointing at Chen Yun.

Although these people do not have spiritual power, they are obviously good at martial arts by mobilizing their true energy.

At the same time, the thin man slowly walked in front of Chen Yun and said, "Come here, the elders in the village have something to ask you."

Chen Yun raised his eyebrows slightly and walked over calmly.

As soon as Fang entered the hall, he saw a fat old man in the middle, looking at Chen Yun with a smile:

"Please take a seat. Since we are all human, we should help each other."

Chen Yun nodded slightly, and then said: "I was swept into this place by the ghost fog, and I haven't reacted yet."

Hearing Chen Yun's vague answer, the old man laughed and said, "You are a cultivator, right? There is nothing to hide about this identity."

"In this dark place, spiritual power and magic power cannot be used. The only thing that can be used is crude martial arts."

Chen Yun nodded slightly and said, "It seems that this place should be the most popular among warriors?"

"You can say that, fellow Daoist."

The white-haired old man smiled gently.

"Boom!"

At this moment, a huge roar was heard outside the hall, and the sound continued one after another, rapidly approaching the village.

Feeling this strange scene, everyone in the hall changed their expressions and exclaimed:

"The Yin Beast is attacking!"

In a panic, these monks no longer cared about Chen Yun and stood up and walked out at the same time.

Chen Yun put his hands behind his back and walked out of the house with a normal expression.

Walking out of the hall, what appeared in front of us were several elders, who were solemnly commanding hundreds of young men and women. They stood on the thick stone wall, holding white spears and looking outside the stone wall with nervous expressions.

Although the atmosphere was very tense, it was orderly and not panicky.

Looking along the stone wall, I saw flying sand and rocks, strong winds, and a strange black wind blowing a little further away from the village, making it impossible to see anything clearly.

Wherever these black winds passed, a layer of black frost condensed on the ground.

This is the property of the dark energy, it is extremely cold and strikes directly at the soul.

However, under the defense of the purple mist above the village, those dark winds immediately dissipated as soon as they approached.

In the black wind, one could faintly hear the sound of a series of heavy objects falling. Although they were far away, the astonishing momentum could be faintly heard.

A moment later, a huge black shadow more than ten feet tall rushed out from the wind.

In the gloomy black wind, Chen Yun could clearly see a huge gray ape, magnified more than ten times, holding a strange black tree in its hand, walking towards the village step by step.

The beast looked extremely ferocious, with four eyes on its face and a pair of fleshy wings on its back.

"It's a cunning beast. It's a cunning beast coming this time. Send the big shield over quickly."

After seeing the face of the giant beast clearly, several people shouted loudly at the same time.

Suddenly, a large number of women, children and white-haired old men appeared, holding various shields and sent them to the people on the wall one by one. Then they hurriedly ran down the stone wall again.

At this time, the giant beast had run to within a hundred feet of the stone wall.

The distance of thirty feet passed in a flash.

At this moment, several deep purple fogs surged out from the ground and instantly bound the giant beast's feet tightly.

"boom!"

With a loud roar, the giant beast lost its balance and fell heavily in front of the huge wall.

The powerful force made everyone unable to stand steadily.

Chen Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and looked towards the stone platform not far away.

I saw four white-haired old men sitting on a stone platform, using the Yinming Beast Crystal and stone talismans to cast out several purple tentacles, completely binding the cunning and ferocious beast to the ground.

"It's quite interesting, but the power is too weak."

Chen Yun shook his head slightly. The power released by this stone talisman was only comparable to that of a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training.

The value to Chen Yun is extremely low.

When they saw the cunning and ferocious beast fall to the ground, the indigenous residents quickly took action.

Densely packed spears and arrows shot towards the fallen beast in front like raindrops, completely covering it.

Looking at the dense array of arrows, the cunning and ferocious beast felt uneasy and let out a loud roar.

Gusts of dark wind blew out of his mouth.

Wherever the arrow passed, thick ice crystals quickly condensed on it and it fell from the sky.

"Roar!"

The cunning beast roared angrily, and the stiff hair on its neck stood up at this moment.

"Huh! Huh!"

As a series of sharp sounds of breaking through the air were heard, the standing hair instantly turned into countless black rays and shot towards the stone wall.

Everyone on the wall seemed to have known that this beast had this trick. Although everyone looked nervous, they still shouted and neatly raised various large shields in their hands.

"Woo!"

The Soul-Crying Beast let out a low roar, and its emerald green eyes stared at the Cunning Beast, its eyes full of greed.

"Don't worry."

Chen Yun shook his head slightly, put the Crying Soul Beast into his sleeve, and walked towards the house. (End of this chapter)
