Chapter 532: Chapter 276: Evil Spirits Sacrifice_1
After the Sect Hierarch of the Xuan Yin Sect, Yin Wei, knelt and pleaded for assistance, a powerful wave of Yin Evil Qi erupted like a volcano from the ground, scattering the few tornadoes that were pressuring the Protective Sect Array.
The surrounding cultivators also felt this intense Yin Qi, which made them shiver and succumb to an involuntary fear.
Shock etched on their faces, they questioned whether the Xuan Yin Sect was indeed hiding two Nascent Soul True Monarchs. That would be an extremely well-kept secret.
Soon, a dreadfully gloomy evil spirit slowly rose to mid-air from within the Xuan Yin Sect. Its entire body was a deep azure color, its face aged, and it emanated an inhuman coldness. Even the cultivators could not help but tremble.
“Who wishes to destroy my Xuan Yin Sect,” said the Old Man Xie Su in a monotone voice, casting his gaze around.
Lin Yi didn’t pay any attention and continued his spiritual power attacks on the Xuan Yin Sect’s formation. Thanks to his Eye of Emptiness, he clearly understood the Old Man Xie Su’s nature.
The Xuan Yin Sect inflicted cruelty on others and even more so on themselves. Abandoning the chance of reincarnation to turn into an Evil Spirit was quite an unthinkable deed for ordinary people.
The Evil Spirit Old Man’s gaze fell upon Lin Yi, but his face showed no traces of emotion. He seemed impassive as if his long existence as an Evil Spirit had driven his human emotions away.
“Leave quickly and you will be spared,” he stated indifferently.
Surrounding cultivators noticed the Evil Spirit hovering above the Xuan Yin Sect and began to understand. It was indeed the Evil Spirit, whose presence was strong.
However, even Lord Xuan Ming couldn’t handle Eastern Sect Master. How could an Evil Spirit at the Nascent Soul stage dared to claim such outrageous things as making the Sect Master retreat and sparing his life?
If they had the power, they should directly confront him; there was no need for such idle chatter.
Still, Lin Yi paid no attention and remained focused on the attack. As he continued, the Protective Sect Array started to show signs of breaking.
He could feel that the Evil Spirit had likely existed for thousands of years. Unfortunately, this was not a complete world, but merely a small portion of the Cultivation World.
Even if the Evil Spirit absorbed more Yin Evil Qi, it could not advance beyond the limits of the Nascent Soul Realm in this world.
Ascending to the Upper Realm was a pipe dream. Strictly speaking, an Evil Spirit was not seen as a Yin Soul, but as an evil thing, not part of the Five Elements reincarnation loop; thus, it was ineligible to ascend.
The moment he decided to abandon reincarnation and turned himself into an Evil Spirit, he relinquished his qualifications as a human.
Seeing this, Yin Wei, the Sect Hierarch of the Xuan Yin Sect, became anxious. He took out his Sect Leader’s Jade Badge and knelt, begging, “Evil Spirit Elder, our Protective Sect Array is on the verge of collapse. I beg you to come out and kill this beast.”
The Evil Spirit Old Man glanced at Yin Wei, or more precisely, at the Jade Badge in his hand. He said nothing, but his hand emitted a stream of black smoke that flowed downward.
Soon, from the depths, eight more evil spirits flew upward. Each of them was at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection realm, colored deep azure, bearing the same expressionless face.
However, these evil spirits seemed to have less spiritual intelligence compared to the first Evil Spirit Old Man.
The surrounding cultivators were dumbstruck at this spectacle. Counting the original Evil Spirit Old Man, there were nine Evil Spirits at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection realm. Was this the true foundation of the Xuan Yin Sect?
With these Evil Spirits in addition to the strength of Lord Xuan Ming, they should be powerful enough to dominate the entire Cultivation World. Why had they been hiding their strength?
If Lord Xuan Ming had brought these Evil Spirits on this mission, there would’ve been no need to seek assistance from the other sects nor resort to despicable means like abducting Jade Illusion Zen Ren.
In that scenario, the Eastern Sect Master might not have been alerted, and Lord Xuan Ming wouldn’t have died.
The Evil Spirit Old Man began to cast a spell. A chilling Yin Evil Qi emanated from him along with a sucking force that absorbed the surrounding eight Evil Spirits, gradually merging with him.
The fusion process was horrifying as though they were being forced into his body. Yet, the Evil Spirits showed no emotion, as if they felt no pain.
After the nine Evil Spirits fused, they did not become a giant monster like the Evil Spirits in Qing Yun City. They retained their normal form and appearance, still imitating the face of the Evil Spirit Old Man but were now bearing several faces all throughout their body, each seemingly capable of observing everything.
Upon completion of the fusion, a terrifying energy radiated from it, surpassing the Nascent Soul Great Perfection.
The surrounding cultivators also felt the powerful energy radiating from the combined Evil Spirits. They turned their gaze towards the calm Eastern Sect Master, uncertain if his fire technique could still be of use.
“Die.” The Evil Spirit Old Man spoke in a monotonous voice. Then, he instantly rushed out of the formation, launching an attack on Lin Yi.
The Evil Spirit had various moves; each face on its body served a different function. Some shrieked to affect the mind, while others cast spells.
Lin Yi displayed a devilish grin as dark, cold flames appeared around him, attacking the Evil Spirit.
Back when he was farming at the Cloud Sect’s Outer Sect, even a small grey evil spirit was a tough nut to crack. Now, nine Evil Spirits fused at the Nascent Soul stage were nothing more than insignificant bugs in his eyes.
