Chapter 468: Chapter 357: Qin An Takes Action, Borrowing Demon Souls

"Why don’t these clay people have false souls after they die?"

Jin Fengyu searched through the corpse of a clay person, his brows furrowed deeply.

Liu Mei also searched, but found no trace of a false soul.

Not only them, but other Mountain Patrol Generals also searched, yet found nothing.

Seeing this, everyone’s brows furrowed even deeper.

However, the attack from the clay people at the scene became more fierce, leaving them no time to think, forcing them to continue fighting.

Once all the clay people were cleared by the Mountain Patrol Generals, they had suffered heavy losses.

Many Mountain Patrol Generals were seriously injured. If it weren’t for timely support and close cooperation, many might have already fallen.

The ground was covered with traces of soil, but there was not a single false soul.

Seeing this, Jin Fengyu mused, "This is very strange, everyone be careful."

The Mountain Patrol Generals all nodded in unison, searched everywhere once more, and upon finding nothing unusual, looked towards another exit.

Liu Mei, barefoot, stepped forward, "Let’s go, since we haven’t found anything, let’s keep looking. Now it seems there’s only one path."

No one hesitated, and everyone followed this exit, heading inside.

Inside was another long passage.

Upon entering this passage, a bone-chilling cold immediately surrounded them.

This coldness was much greater than before, indicating that the danger ahead was greater than the clay people they encountered earlier.

No one spoke, including Jin Fengyu and Liu Mei, who also fell into silence.

Their hearts grew heavier, and as they approached the end of the passage, suddenly there was a sound of surging behind them.

Qin An and the others immediately turned around, but found the dark end empty. The surging sound seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, with no source to be found.

The surging sound moved closer, passing over them, heading forward.

As they felt puzzled, Qin An’s ears suddenly twitched as if detecting something amiss.

"It seems the sound is coming from the wall."

After speaking, he drew the Cold Star Saber and slashed at the wall beside him.

Under the surge of Nine-Colored True Essence, the light illuminated the entire passage.

The Cold Star Saber struck the wall, splitting a fissure in it.

Following the fissure, they looked inside the wall and gasped in surprise.

Inside the wall, streams of soil were surging.

In an instant, they vanished without a trace.

But after disappearing, more soil surged through the fissure, flowing deeper into the passage.

Jin Fengyu immediately noticed something unusual and frowned, "This is the leftover soil from the clay people we just killed; they seem to be heading in one direction."

Liu Mei attempted to raise her hand to grab the soil.

But the soil seemed impossible to grasp, bypassing her hand and continuing to surge forward.

Liu Mei’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she immediately raised her hand to strike at the soil.

The soil scattered in all directions, but just as it flew out, it seemed to be sucked back in, drilling into the wall and continuing to surge toward the end.

"It’s useless," Qin An shook his head, "I used my blade skill earlier and hit it, but it didn’t cause any harm; instead, it made them surge faster."

Upon hearing this, everyone present showed confusion.

The scene before them was very eerie.

The clay people they had killed turned into soil, surging in one direction, and the end seemed unknown.

Moreover, the sinister environment made many Mountain Patrol Generals feel a chill rising in their hearts.

Jin Fengyu frowned and said, "Perhaps the end is our destination; they all seem to be heading for the exit at the end. Let’s go and see what’s happening."

With no clues, speculating randomly here would yield no results.

Above, Ancient Yi and others were still fighting, with occasional roars echoing.

They must hurry now because if Ancient Yi couldn’t hold on, they would be in even more danger here.

Qin An nodded, "Indeed, there’s only one path now."

No one voiced any opinion, and then everyone walked towards the end together.

The sound of the surging soil became more urgent, and the closer they got to the end, the more the sound disturbed them.

A stone door appeared ahead, blocking the end.

The stone door was of ordinary material, naturally no obstacle for them.

Liu Mei patted Tiger Girl’s head.

Tiger Girl roared upward, and the stone door instantly shattered into pieces, revealing the true appearance of the door inside.

Inside was an extraordinarily large cave.

But the cave was extremely desolate.

Upon stepping into the cave from the passage, one Mountain Patrol General suddenly raised his head, exclaiming in astonishment.

"Look above!"

As soon as these words came, everyone instinctively looked up and saw the scene above.

Above, there was a floating light sphere, flickering with faint light.

Surrounding the sphere was an intense evil qi, so dense it made their skins crawl.

Besides, streams of soil surged around the sphere, forming an enormous cage, confining the sphere within.

The soil continued to increase, filling all the gaps completely.

The light of the sphere could not penetrate out.

This cave fell into darkness.

Besides this, there was nothing else.

Jin Fengyu was able to sense the terrifying Evil Qi emanating from it and said, "This should be the origin of the ancient battlefield ruins. Everyone, take action together and destroy it."

No one hesitated. Following Jin Fengyu’s command, numerous Mountain Patrol Generals unleashed their secret techniques, combining their attacks and aiming at the light ball wrapped in earth.

Qin An also swung his saber, but as he slashed out the Cold Star, a hint of doubt arose in his mind.

"This seems a bit too easy."

To let them find this core so easily, does the black-robed Pseudo-God not care at all?

As this thought emerged, the group’s attacks also landed on the light ball.

But the next moment, as the violent roaring sound erupted, the scene before them made everyone wide-eyed.

Their attacks landed on the earth outside, and the earth turned out to be impenetrable, completely nullifying their attacks.

The surface of the earth didn’t even have a trace of a scratch.

"Such hard earth!" Green Loy blinked her beautiful eyes, incredulous, "This defense is comparable to the Void Shattering Realm. We’re finished; it seems like we can’t break this defense."

With these words, everyone fell silent.

Green Loy’s words just reminded them.

They also understood why the black-robed Pseudo-God dared to let them in so easily.

With the earth as defense, breaking through it is difficult.

Even if they won’t be attacked by this earth, and there’s no imminent danger, the victory surely doesn’t belong to them.

Because those above, Ancient Yi and others, are just holding on against the black-robed Pseudo-God, unable to slay him.

If Ancient Yi and others can’t hold on, after the black-robed Pseudo-God slays the three, he will surely find them and kill them all, leaving none behind.

At that time, they’re completely defeated.

Jin Fengyu gritted his teeth and said, "Continue attacking for me. We have no other choice; even if there’s a slight opportunity, we must seize it!"

Everyone’s gloomy eyes slightly lit up.

They gritted their teeth, preparing to attack again.

But at this moment, a voice interrupted them.

"It’s useless."

Everyone’s gaze fell on Qin An.

Qin An stroked the handle of the Cold Star Saber and said blandly, "Since the black-robed Pseudo-God used this move, it proves his confidence in the defense of this earth, able to withstand our attacks, and absolutely won’t be broken by us. No matter how much you attack, it’s just futile."

With these words, the sparkle in everyone’s eyes quickly darkened again.

They are all battle-hardened veterans and have fought their way up from the bottom, naturally possessing unique insights.

How could they not know that Qin An was speaking the truth?

They now only wish to find that glimmer of hope but this hope feels like despair, suffocating them.

Green Loy sighed, "I didn’t expect today to end in such a way, truly helpless. I haven’t slain enough demon creatures and Pseudo-Gods, yet I have to die like this."

Liu Yi clenched her fist, "It’s okay, dying together means we won’t be lonely even on the Yellow Springs Road."

Jin Fengyu’s face was full of reluctance, but after struggling for a long time, it turned into a calm acceptance of death.

Just like Qin An said, this duel is already considered lost.

The Mountain Patrol Generals glanced at each other, then silently began to circulate their True Essence, recovering as quickly as possible.

Though they lost, they certainly wouldn’t give up.

If the black-robed Pseudo-God truly attacked here, even if using every skill possible, he must leave an indelible impression on the black-robed Pseudo-God.

Qin An captured everyone’s expressions, and suddenly said.

"Though you can’t break it, it doesn’t mean this earth is truly flawless."

With these words, everyone present was astonished. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Immediately, Qin An stepped forward and looked up at the earth above.

"You should all have demon souls or pseudo-souls on you. Bring them out and pile them here; maybe I can find a way to break through."

Jin Fengyu was surprised, instinctively asking, "How can you break through?"

Qin An said blandly, "I have a Blood Burning Secret Skill. With demon souls as the foundation for blood burning, I can use it infinitely. If once fails, then twice; if twice fails, then thrice. My Blood Burning Secret Skill can rival half-step Void Shattering Realm. If this earth was truly Void Shattering Realm and could attack, I would naturally be inferior, but since it can only defend, it can only take hits."

At these words, a trace of hope appeared in everyone’s eyes.

Jin Fengyu hesitated, "But even so, there’s not much certainty."

If they truly attacked like this, the demon souls would eventually run out. If they ran out, and Qin An still couldn’t break the defense here, then death would be the only path.

Qin An shook his head, "What if there’s another me?"

As these words fell, a look of confusion appeared on everyone’s face.

Then, they saw Qin An take out a radiant, hazy jade stone from his embrace.

The jade stone was infused with Qin An’s Nine-Colored True Essence, and soon a phantom formed, identical to Qin An’s figure.

Qin An looked at this phantom, with a slight smile on his lips, "This is the Revival Jade Stone, capable of using my abilities limitlessly, including the Three Blades Unite Secret Technique and Blood Burning Secret Skill. If it cooperates with me, it equals two beings capable of slaying half-step Void Shattering Realm. Is this enough?"

The scene fell into silence, and everyone’s eyes changed dramatically.

First shock, then awe, and finally numbness.

They suddenly felt that Qin An had become profoundly enigmatic.

Jin Fengyu silently stood up, placed all demon souls on the ground, and sighed, "I didn’t expect you to be the one rescuing us today. But it’s good; it comforts me that you can stand above me."

Green Loy also silently brought out her demon souls and piled them together.

Though she didn’t speak, her playful and carefree expression appeared once more, considerably easing the atmosphere on the scene.

Then followed Liu Yi and the other Mountain Patrol Generals, stepping forward one by one to place their obtained demon souls on the ground.

Not only demon souls but also lower-grade Demon Pill were included.

All that the Mountain Patrol Generals could offer was placed here, accumulating into a small mountain-like height.

Qin An gazed at this small mountain made of demon souls, his eyes flashing with excitement.

"I’ve never fought such a wealthy battle!"
