Chapter 355

By the time the karma fire burned out, all the skin corpses on the tree had been reduced to ashes, and the old locust tree was left as nothing more than a charred wooden stump.

And on that wooden stump, half a flagpole stood prominently, as if the burning of the karma fire couldn't cause it any damage at all.

Ye Lin stepped forward and took down that half of the flagpole, which matched perfectly with the broken end of the half Xia Qinglan had given him.

With this, he was now only missing the flag surface!

Ye Lin patted the old locust tree that had been burned to a charred half-stump.

"Keep it up, buddy; destruction leads to creation. As long as you can be reborn from the ashes, you'll be the second Willow Deity."

"......"

After obtaining the flagpole, Ye Lin had intended to leave directly, but at this moment, he suddenly heard Xia Qinglan's somewhat trembling voice.

"Xie Hong... look around..."

Ye Lin followed her gaze and only then discovered that, at some unknown time, a large crowd of figures had silently gathered all around, each with a stiff expression and empty, eerie eyes, surrounding Ye Lin and Xia Qinglan tightly, without saying a word.

The air was filled with an extremely oppressive silence, and there wasn't even a hint of life on those people's faces.

Ye Lin's heart skipped a beat; without a doubt, these people were all skin corpses!

He figured it must have been the commotion he made burning the old locust tree that had attracted all these ghost things over.

"Stick your butt out," Ye Lin said in a low, magnetic voice.

"Huh? At a time like this?" Xia Qinglan was stunned for a moment, and then her expression became somewhat strange; he wouldn't be wanting to do *that* right now, would he?

"Don't talk, hurry up and stick it out!"

Under Ye Lin's urging, Xia Qinglan gritted her teeth, closed her eyes with a "death-defying" attitude, pressed her waist down, and assumed the posture of a knee-joint rotation exercise.

"Go to the usual place and hide; I'll come find you naturally after I break free!"

As soon as the words fell, before Xia Qinglan could react, Ye Lin kicked out with a powerful shot, and Xia Qinglan's body flew into the air like a soccer ball, tracing a beautiful parabola in the sky, escaping the encirclement of the skin corpses.

The skin corpses were all dumbfounded; honestly, if Ye Lin had been on the field, it wouldn't have ended 0-7.

After sending Xia Qinglan away, Ye Lin, now without any worries, looked at the numerous skin corpses before him.

"Good morning, everyone. You're here to take a dump, right?"

No one answered him; they just approached step by step, their hollow eyes filled with resentment.

"Well, I'm done, so I'll be going now~"

"Forbidden Spell—Space Leap!"

Ye Lin didn't say another word and prepared to slip away; ripples appeared in space, about to suck him in.

But at this moment, the leading skin corpse suddenly opened its mouth to an incredible width and emitted a sharp, ear-piercing screech filled with resentment!

Following that, the other skin corpses followed suit, and the sharp sound waves turned into substance, making Ye Lin feel as if his head were about to split open on the spot.

The space channel that was about to form was destroyed in an instant, and the terrifying resentment caused Ye Lin to bleed from his seven orifices.

The combat power of skin corpses with hosts and those without is completely not on the same level.

The skin corpses before him had already lunged toward him, and the Dragon Bloodline in Ye Lin's body instantly boiled, and Burning Reincarnation was activated simultaneously!

"You won't let me leave, huh? Today, I'll help you remember why Da Xia is called the Land of Etiquette!"

Afterward, he grabbed the Human Emperor Flagpole, which had broken into two pieces, and used them as two short sticks.

Although the Human Emperor Flag had collapsed, it was, after all, a Nine-Star Divine Artifact, and its hardness was still extremely impressive.

The skin corpse that charged the fastest had just reached Ye Lin when it was struck directly on the head by Ye Lin's stick.

Bang!

A crisp sound rang out, and that skin corpse squatted down, clutching its head.

As the saying goes, a good sound makes for a good head; Ye Lin held the sticks in both hands, and for a time, the sounds of "bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang" rang out one after another.

Although Ye Lin really wanted to use the Imperial Gold Spear, he didn't dare.

This was the Demon Realm, after all; once the Imperial Gold Spear was taken out, it wouldn't be a question of whether he could deal with the Skin Corpse King, but rather how he would escape from here.

Amidst the crisp "bang-bang-bang" sounds, Ye Lin took out another canister of powerful itching powder and launched an indiscriminate attack.

As the powder drifted, all the skin corpses instantly turned red-eyed; for skin corpses that were only a layer of skin, itching powder was almost the best divine weapon to deal with them.

After a set of silky smooth combos, the skin corpses were miserable, but as they fought, more and more skin corpses began to gather here.

Ye Lin didn't dare to linger in the fight and hurriedly cast a Forbidden Spell again.

"Forbidden Spell—Space-Time Wormhole!"

The moment the space-time wormhole opened, Ye Lin didn't hesitate to break off the finger wearing the Canglan Ring and toss it through.

"Forbidden Spell—Heavenly Star Explosion!"

The main body left behind began to expand bit by bit; the skin corpses hadn't realized what was about to happen and were still charging at Ye Lin one after another, constantly gnawing flesh off his body.

The next second.

Inside the Millennium City, whether human or skin corpse, everyone clearly saw a Patrick Star made of light, dazzling and bright.

Boom—!!!

Because eyes are in front of ears, after seeing the bright Patrick Star, everyone heard a deafening explosion.

The entire Millennium City trembled incessantly at this moment, as if an earth dragon were turning over; some old houses were even directly shaken until they collapsed, becoming a pile of ruins.

As the part that had been teleported away began to regenerate flesh, Ye Lin successfully broke free from the encirclement of the skin corpses.

Although it wasn't clear exactly how many skin corpses this self-detonation had taken away, the gains for Ye Lin were extremely impressive; having just reached level 73 not long ago, he leveled up again, reaching level 74.

"I'm probably going to be wanted; if only I had a disguise..."

Ye Lin had a headache; so many skin corpses had seen his face, and from now on, he would be unable to move an inch within the Millennium City.

But there was no use worrying now; let's wait for Xia Qinglan to return first. Only when Xia Qinglan returned would he know where to find the remaining flag surface.

But Ye Lin waited until nightfall and still didn't see Xia Qinglan's figure.

"That shouldn't be..."

Ye Lin frowned slightly; Xia Qinglan should know that the "usual place" he mentioned was her home.

Could it be that she mistakenly thought it was the place where they first met?

Thinking of this, Ye Lin activated the Great Void Technique and arrived at the small alley where he and Xia Qinglan first met, but there were no traces of anyone having been in the alley either.

He went to Uncle Jiang's residence again, but Uncle Jiang's residence was surrounded by skin corpses, three layers inside and three layers outside.

This girl, she didn't get into trouble, did she?

Ye Lin decided not to wait any longer; he directly used his third profession talent to start creating a Forbidden Spell.

"Generate a Forbidden Spell that, at any cost, can immediately find the person I want to find."

【According to your needs, a Destiny-type Forbidden Spell is now being generated for you.】

【Forbidden Spell—River Map and Luo Scroll: The Forbidden Spellcaster pays most of their essence, energy, and spirit to deduce a result they wish to know.】

【Confirm generation?】

"Essence, energy, and spirit?"

Ye Lin was stunned for a moment; he had used so many Forbidden Spells, but this was the first time he had seen one that required paying essence, energy, and spirit. What would be the consequences of paying this?

Never mind, he had an Undying Body anyway; he had one life to live, so just do it!

"Confirm!"

After generating this Forbidden Spell, Ye Lin immediately tried it out.

"Forbidden Spell—River Map and Luo Scroll!"
