Lin Fang said with a solemn expression, "We can only give it a try."

The murder and malevolent energies here are too numerous; trying to resolve them through sorting is almost impossible. The only method is to find something that can contain them.

Lin Fang carefully recalled what he had on hand, hoping to find something that could hold these energies.

He soon thought of the "Journey to the West" he had brought with him from his original world. This book had brought him his initial adventures and helped him avoid many risks.

Although it was a method left by a transcendent Taoist Master, as the transcendental essence was taken away by the Three Pure Ones, the book lost its original mystique.

But because of the transcendental essence, the nature of the book underwent a wondrous change, although Lin Fang had not yet found the way to use it.

Now, he had a sudden idea that even if the book was of little use, it contained the transcendental essence, and perhaps could serve as a container.

The energies that lingered on this land were the murderous and malevolent energies produced from the great battle between Heavenly Court and the Demon Clan, possessing the power to destroy everything and corrupt all living beings.

Since those who died on this land were cultivators, the combination of their resentment and malevolent energies formed an eerie aura that even the high monks of the Buddhist Sect were unable to purify.

If these energies are left unattended, they would gradually corrode the land here, turning this region into a cursed place.

What is most worrying is that such an environment could give rise to peculiar creatures.

They seem to be enemies of all beings, born with a desire for destruction, as if they were the embodiment of the dark side of this world.

The birth of such beings always leads to tremendous loss, and so the Heavenly Court had specifically formed the Tian Shi team to deal with such situations.

But now, given the relationship between Heavenly Court and the Demon Clan, how could the Heavenly Court possibly send a Heavenly Master to deal with it? They might even be scheming to throw the Demon Clan into chaos.

Upon further thought, Lin Fang still took out the "Journey to the West" that he carried with him, the characters on it now blurred and indistinct.

He sighed softly, then opened the book. Mana surged into the book, linking with his intent, and instantly a powerful suction force emerged from within.

Countless energies of murder and malevolence were absorbed by this force into the book, causing a whirlwind to rise in the area.

Such commotion immediately attracted the attention of nearby onlookers.

Ziwei Imperial Lord and others, still in discussion within the Heavenly Court Camp, were drawn by the tumult, and they stepped out of the tent to see the black aura—a combination of malevolent and murderous energies—being influenced by a terrible force into a black tornado.

"Your Majesty, should we take a look?" a Star Lord asked curiously. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

The commotion was significant, and it was likely something had happened there; he was eager to go and see.

"That is the direction of the previous battlefield. These black auras are a mixture of grudges, murder, and malevolence. Even we would be affected if we entered, not to mention so much energy condensed together. One misstep could make us fall from our Daoist Heart, transforming into peculiar demons that only know destruction and slaughter," the Ziwei Imperial Lord said softly.

He was not unfamiliar with this aura; at the end of the ancient war, this aura pervaded the land far and wide. Finally, Empress Hou Tu, with great dharma power, created the Netherworld, suppressing this aura beneath it and turning it into the foundation of the Underworld, thus averting a catastrophe.

After the establishment of the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Master’s Residence was founded to deal specifically with such matters, guiding this aura into the Underworld.

Ziwei Imperial Lord had worked with the Heavenly Master’s Residence before, but the aura encountered then was far less than this. After all, it had been a long time since the Three Realms had seen a war of this magnitude.

Even so, that instance left a deep impression on this Emperor of the Heavenly Court, especially the creatures infected by this strange aura, which could directly provoke a deep desire for slaughter in one’s heart, making it very difficult for any cultivator to deal with.

Therefore, seeing such a dense and strange aura, even he did not dare to delve into it, for fear of being affected and destabilizing his Daoist heart.

"I wonder what has happened. Could it be that someone has opened the passage to the Underworld? But now the Underworld no longer accepts this aura because it has suppressed too much of it, to prevent causing great chaos in the Netherworld," Ziwei Imperial Lord murmured quietly.

He speculated about the cause of the situation but got nowhere due to a lack of effective information.

On the other hand, the Demon Clan also noticed this situation. The Great Saint who moves mountains, seeing that surging and overwhelming dark aura, quickly stopped the curious monsters in their tracks.

"Do not seek death!"

The authority of the Great Saint successfully suppressed their curiosity, and they too felt the terror of this aura. Even from such a distance, they could still sense the destruction and slaughter contained within it.

"Perhaps some eminent being is performing a ritual to cleanse these auras, otherwise, in not much time, this place will become desolate," guessed the Great Saint who moves mountains.

Regarding this aura, he had noticed it a long time ago but, lacking any way to deal with it, even the Demon Master and Demon Emperor had no good solutions, forcing them to give up and prepare to make this area a forbidden land for the Demon Clan.

In the center of the tornado, Mr. Mo and Lin Fang also felt the weird and terrifying power of this force. It wasn’t very apparent when it was dispersed, but as it gradually gathered, the strange aura seemed to want to influence their minds.

Fortunately, the Journey to the West, held by Lin Fang, was imbued with an aura that transcended the forces of this world, a status far beyond any power here, and even the strange auras could not affect them.

And as the book continued to absorb the aura, its influence grew weaker.

Seeing this, Lin Fang showed a satisfied smile; everything was going more smoothly than he had imagined. The book was indeed powerful.

As the last wisp of strange aura was absorbed, life instantly returned to the region. Lin Fang could clearly feel endless life force surging through the land. Soon, the soil stained with blood turned green again.

Mr. Mo, with lingering fear, said, "We underestimated this force. If it weren’t for your protective magical treasure, we might have been corrupted just now."

Lin Fang nodded and said, "This aura is indeed strange. I don’t know how it was dealt with in the past, but if left unchecked, this place would become a wasteland. What’s most terrifying is that I can sense that once this force accumulates to a certain extent, it will give birth to dreadful life forms."

These were Lin Fang’s previous intuitions, which often reflected reality at their level of cultivation.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly. Lin Fang inspected the Journey to the West, which had absorbed the strange aura, and noticed that the text on it had become even more blurred while the cover had taken on a darker hue.
