Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

After a night of rest, most of the people who had consumed a lot of energy had recovered.    

    

As soon as the sky brightened, they left the dilapidated village and continued onward.    

    

In the afternoon, they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.    

    

The gray mountain range could be said to be barren. There were no trees, and there were no living things. The gray and desolate mountain range stretched out into the distance. Its width was unknown, and its depth was unknown.    

    

Meanwhile, the mountain's yin qi was so dense that it couldn't be dissipated.    

    

The group did not rush up the mountain. Instead, they started searching for the statue at the foot of the mountain.    

    

Whether it was Chen Yu, Zhou Yicheng, or the others, they all had some understanding of Yin Mountain, and knew that the most important thing in Devil Land was to resist the Devil Nightmare.    

    

Below the Devil Nightmare, no matter how strong one was, it was difficult to be courteous. Compared to the Devil Nightmare, the Yin Demon was much easier to deal with.    

    

"Here!" Standing in front of a stone statue, everyone carefully observed the direction the stone statue was heading towards. Zhou Yicheng said, "Follow the direction the stone statue is facing, and the second stone statue should be about 20 miles away!"    

    

Chen Yu couldn't help but glance at Zhou Yicheng. Even Linghu Chen didn't mention these details, but Zhou Yicheng was very clear about it.    

    

However, it was not surprising that every single practitioner who entered the Devil Land had their own purpose.    

    

Thus, everyone began to ascend the mountain, following the direction that the stone statue faced.    

    

The more they advanced in the mountain, the denser the Yin Qi became. It covered the sky and covered the sun. It was so gray that it was impossible to see far.    

    

Zhou Yicheng and the others were extremely careful and moved very slowly.    

    

Chen Yu had the Bloodfire Eye Technique, so he could naturally see further.    

    

Wu wu, after going deep into a mountain stream, the sound of devilish cries suddenly rang out, coming from all directions.    

    

Chen Yu was extremely familiar with this voice, he knew that it was Yin Demon approaching.    

    

Soon, shadows emerged from the dark clouds and pounced on the group.    

    

This was just the most ordinary of low-ranked Yin Demon s, it naturally had no effect on the rest of them.    

    

As blade lights slashed out, although the cultivation realm was suppressed, killing these Yin Demon would not be a problem for everyone here.    

    

At the end of the valley was the mountain road.    

    

As he was about to set foot on the mountain path, a hand suddenly emerged from the ground at the side of the mountain path. It was dark and cold.    

    

Along with the splashing of dirt, a tattered corpse stood up shakily.    

    

It was a Yin Corpse.    

    

A student from the Imperial Capital Academy took a step forward and slashed horizontally, slicing the corpse into two.    

    

Amongst the Yin Corpses that were split apart, a large amount of black Qi flowed out, the Yin Corpses could actually wiggle, their heads and tails slowly wiggling, actually wanting to join together again.    

    

"Let's go!" Zhou Yicheng shouted, "These are just the lowest level of Yin Corpses, they can't even be considered Yin Soldiers. They're not even worth mentioning!"    

    

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and continued forward.    

    

In the next four hours, the group encountered more and more Yin Demon, but it was still not enough to cause any trouble.    

    

On the other hand, apart from one or two Yin Corpses, they did not encounter many.    

    

Before nightfall, everyone found a stone statue to rest on.    

    

Following the enveloping of the Yin Mountain by the darkness, the angry howl of the Yin Demon spread throughout the heaven and earth, causing one to feel horrified.    

    

Under the starlight of the stone statue, many people had uneasy expressions.    

    

Chen Yu, on the other hand, took out a jug of wine and drank it slowly, not really worried.    

    

After experiencing the environment of the ancient battlefield, Chen Yu wasn't worried at all if he were to be in a place like this where Yin Demon wreaked havoc.    

    

Furthermore, Star Soul had the ability to kill and refine Yin Demon.    

    

In the darkness of the night, outside the stars of the stone statue, there were numerous shadows gathered, as if they were afraid of the starlight emitted by the stone statue.    

    

In the middle of the night, Chen Yu suddenly felt something and turned his head to the side.    

    

In the darkness, the Devil Nightmare seemed to have transformed into a huge face that was sizing up the place.    

    

That huge face gave Chen Yu an extremely creepy feeling.    

    

Very quickly, his face seemed to be letting out a breath.    

    

Numerous shadows converged as the Yin Demon gathered. Suddenly, it turned into a six-legged beast and jumped into the starlight above the stone statue.    

    

Zhou Yicheng and the rest were indeed powerful and should be the top students in the Imperial Capital Academy. They all stood up and attacked together.    

    

Boom! The sacred art that contained an indestructible divine intent struck the Yin Demon s, causing it to spread out for a moment, then converged once again. With a sweep of its huge tail, it swept towards the group.    

    

The huge tail was like the real tail of a powerful dire beast.    

    

Chen Yu threw away the wine pot and raised his hand. The Star Soul whistled out and smashed onto the Giant Beast's body.    

    

The Yin Demon s suddenly shattered and let out a faint miserable howl as their body suddenly exploded and dissipated in the pure starlight.    

    

In the darkness, the gigantic face of the Devil Nightmare retreated and disappeared.    

    

However, there was a faint sound of someone mumbling in the distance. It was a sound that made Chen Yu feel terrified.    

    

All along, he had thought that the Devil Nightmare was the Devil Nightmare. From the indistinct face that appeared just now, Chen Yu suddenly felt that this Devil Nightmare was not necessarily simple, and perhaps it contained something that was difficult to describe.    

    

Looking at Zhou Yicheng and the others, they did not have the same kind of eyesight as Chen Yu. They did not discover the presence of the Devil Nightmare.    

    

The next night, there were no other dangers. Everyone continued their journey after dawn.    

    

They climbed over a mountain ridge, and just as they were about to do so, a burst of violent Spiritual Dipper fluctuations suddenly came from ahead, accompanied by the sound of weapons clashing. It was obvious that they were engaged in a battle.    

    

Zhou Yicheng said, "Let's go and have a look. Everyone, be careful!"    

    

Before he could circle around the mountain ridge in front of him, two figures covered in blood suddenly appeared, running frantically towards him. Their posture was extremely panicked.    

    

Seeing Chen Yu's group, the two people who ran out revealed joy on their faces. One of them shouted, "Save us!"    

    

Zhou Yicheng and the others had been carrying their weapons the entire time, so they immediately spread out and took up a defensive stance.    

    

Zhou Yicheng shouted, "Who are you people? What is chasing after you? "    

    

Those two people were running wildly. Before they could say anything, a shadow had suddenly appeared in the sky. Two sword lights flashed and pierced through the two warriors' bodies.    

    

The person flying in the air was a man wearing a grey robe. He was tall and had a cold expression. His gaze swept across Chen Yu and the others and the corner of his mouth slightly lifted. He seemed to have seen his prey.    

    

Chen Yu and the others all revealed an expression of shock. It was very simple from a distance. The fact that this man could fly in the air was something they found hard to believe.    

    

"Who are you?" Zhou Yicheng asked.    

    

The man didn't answer. Instead, he suddenly landed on the ground. He put his hands together, and streams of Yin Qi flew out and drilled into the bodies of the two warriors he had just killed.    

    

In an instant, the Yin Qi in the Yin Mountain Mountain Range gathered and the Yin Demon roared, drowning out the area.    

    

The Yin Demon transformed into all sorts of shapes and attacked Chen Yu and the others.    

    

This Yin Demon's strength was far stronger than what they had encountered before, but the ones present at the scene were at least at the peak of the Profound Dark Stage, so they could still resist it.    

    

Zhou Yicheng flicked his finger and a Thunder Fire Bead flew out. With a loud explosion, it destroyed all the Yin Demon in front of them.    

    

"Stop!" Then, Zhou Yicheng shouted at the man: "If you can't stop, don't blame us for being impolite!"    

    

"Thunder Fire Bead?" The man revealed a surprised expression and said, "It seems you have some background, but you are destined to become my corpse puppet."    

    

As he spoke, the man whistled.    

    

Three stiff figures suddenly jumped up from behind the mountain ridge. Their speed was not slow, however, as they wielded their weapons and rushed over.    

    

Chen Yu took a glance and saw that the three figures' faces were pale and grey. Their clothes were torn in many places, but they were different from the other Yin Corpses. Their clothes were relatively clean.    

    

"Devil Sect Corpse Devil Clan!" Zhou Yicheng's expression was somewhat unsightly. He suddenly raised his hand and three Thunderfire Pearls flew out, aiming right at the three Yin Corpses that had already pounced in front of him.    

    

Boom! Boom! Boom! The three Thunder Fire Beads exploded and three Yin Corpses were blown away. One of the Yin Corpses even exploded.    

    

The Thunder Flame Bead in Zhou Yicheng's hands was quite powerful and had reached the level of a Divine Artifact.    

    

"You're all looking to die!" The man frowned and said, "In order to refine the Yin Corpse, This Honored Warrior had spent a lot of effort and time, but you guys have actually destroyed it!"    

    

After saying that, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed.    

    

A strand of cold wind appeared and attacked Zhou Yicheng.    

    

Zhou Yicheng's cultivation realm was originally at the late stage of Deity Entering Stage, so it could not be considered to be of the highest realm. However, he was a proud son of heaven in the Imperial Capital Academy who was knowledgeable about all kinds of strange martial skills, and he also had a lot of combat experience.    

    

As soon as the man raised his hand, he stabbed out with his sword.    

    

The sword light tore through the void, carrying with it a vast will of light. It struck the finger aura, shattering it.    

    

However, Zhou Yicheng's cultivation level was severely suppressed. Although he blocked the finger attack, his body still swayed and he took two steps back.    

    

"Not bad strength!" The man didn't seem to be surprised by this, but his eyes became a bit hot, and he said, "If I refine you into a fresh corpse puppet, maybe you will be able to become a King Corpse the next day, and my strength will increase greatly!"    

    

Zhou Yicheng's expression turned ugly.    

    

The others felt the same pressure.    

    

What was certain was that this grey robed man had not reached the level of Mixed Origin Stage yet, or else they wouldn't have to fight.    

    

However, even though his cultivation base had been suppressed and this grey-clothed man wasn't, the difference in strength was still very large.    

    

Moreover, within this Yin Mountain, the Corpse Monster's bloodline was the most advantageous.    

    

The Yin Demon whistled as it attacked the group of people with an ominous intent.    

    

"Alright, as fresh materials as you all are, we mustn't waste any of it. It's time to treat it seriously!" The grey-clothed man chuckled as he raised his hand, causing Yin Qi to surge in the air.    

    

As for the grey-clothed man, he gave off a majestic and unrestrained pressure as his corpse energy turned into threads that filled the sky.    

    

The grey string was like a net, with symbols constantly circulating in the center, as if it had merged with the void of the Yin Mountain.    

    

Zhou Yicheng and the others were shocked.    

    

Jiang Bieqing and Zhao Yaner could not help but retreat continuously.    

    

"Thunder Fire Bead!" Zhou Yicheng shouted.    

    

They picked up a school disciple and threw out the Thunder Fire Bead in unison.    

    

However, as soon as the Thunder Fire Bead flew into the domain, it was immediately trapped by the silk net and unable to approach. The Corpse Yin Qi was like a huge hand, tightly holding the seven Thunder Fire Beads.    

    

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!    

    

The Thunder Flame Bead exploded, and the Yin Corpse Qi threads disintegrated, but quickly formed again.    

    

"It's no use, in Devil Land, other than the Yin Demon bloodline, there is no one else who can contend against the Corpse Monster lineage!" The grey robed man said: "Not to mention that you guys have been suppressed, even if you didn't have it, killing you would have taken a lot of effort!"    

    

As he spoke, his domain swiftly spread out, and the power of the laws and Yin Mountain within seemed to have completely merged into one, unshakable.    

    

"Wait a minute!" At this moment, Chen Yu suddenly spoke.
