Chapter 607: A Glimmer of Hope, Then Darkness Once More

The few shouts from Ye Lin's clones hiding in the crowd undoubtedly made the long-lost hot blood of all the ascenders boil once again.

That's right!

Who were they?

They were all people who had swept across a world, finding no rivals, and only then ascended to the Longevity Continent!

In the past, no matter what kind of danger they faced, they had always pressed forward, fearing nothing!

Since when had they started to fear even a single killing array?

A fighting spirit began to reignite in the eyes of many ascenders, as if there were two flames burning within them.

So what if it was a narrow escape from death?

Why couldn't the ones who survived be them?

"I practiced the sword at three, learned my family's sword art at eight, and grasped sword intent at fifteen, slaying enemies across great realms. Looking across the entire world, no one could take a single strike from me! I am a sword immortal in the flesh; why should I fear a killing array? Let's go!"

"Hahahaha, when I was born, a crane came carrying a celestial treasure. I am a heavenly immortal reincarnated; my path to immortality begins right now!"

"I have even broken into forbidden zones of life where death was certain and escaped unscathed; what is a mere killing array?"

The many ascenders had firm gazes, clearly prepared to follow Ye Lin and break out!

"Very good, very spirited! With this attitude, you will surely be able to drive ship-girls!"

Ye Lin nodded with satisfaction.

"Since that is the case, let me clear the thorns and brambles for you and carve out a bloody path!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Lin took the lead, charging at the very front alone to open a path for the ascenders.

At this moment, the ascenders no longer hesitated; they formed a long line, followed closely behind Ye Lin, and charged into the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array without looking back.

"Tatakae, izumo tatakae! Shinzou wo sasageyo!"

"Freedom is right ahead! Fight for freedom!"

Ye Lin let out a loud roar.

The moment they stepped into the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array, the blood coffins inside began to burst open one after another, and skinless corpses rushed toward the crowd.

Without a word, Ye Lin grabbed a skinless corpse and refined it in an instant!

This heroic scene greatly inspired the ascenders behind him.

They charged into the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array one after another, engaging in a great battle with those skinless corpses.

With Ye Lin opening the way, although there were casualties from time to time, the overall number of casualties remained extremely low.

Very soon, they had reached the depths of the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array, and all the ascenders had stepped into it.

But just at this moment, Ye Lin was suddenly bitten by a skinless corpse.

"Ah!!!"

Ye Lin let out a shrill, miserable scream, followed immediately by a second skinless corpse, then a third.

Ye Lin was quickly submerged by the skinless corpses.

He reached out a hand in despair.

"Sorry... I couldn't lead you all out successfully..."

Rip!

Ye Lin's body was torn into pieces by the skinless corpses.

This scene terrified all the ascenders who had followed Ye Lin inside.

"Oh no! That man is dead; this killing array is far more terrifying than we imagined!"

"This is clearly a killing array laid down by a great cultivator of the Profound Opening Realm. We haven't even reshaped our bodies yet; how could we possibly break through?"

"It's over! We might all die in this godforsaken place!"

Once Ye Lin died, the ascenders fell into complete chaos.

Yet, a small portion of them still had firm gazes; they exerted all their strength and began to push their way out of the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array.

Although the number of skinless corpses was high, the number of these ascenders was not small either.

Moreover, almost every one of them possessed a trump card for life-saving at the bottom of their boxes.

Forced into such a desperate situation, they had no choice but to use all their trump cards.

They pushed forward bit by bit just like that.

During this period, one ascender after another died in the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array.

Their corpses were wrapped by blood coffins, about to transform into new skinless corpses; this was the terror of the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array—those who died in the array would make the array's power even more terrifying.

"How can I fall in a place like this!"

A tall and sturdy ascender roared; his muscles were knotted, and beneath his bronze-colored skin, purple-black veins began to spread.

A skinless corpse lunged at him, but he punched it to pieces instead.

In this state, he was like a god or demon in the flesh; the surrounding skinless corpses could not stop him at all.

"Dressed in white, I roam the world; what is there to fear?"

Another ascender, dressed in white with an extraordinary bearing, knocked back several skinless corpses dozens of meters with a wave of his hand.

A silver spear even appeared in his hand, instantly slaying the skinless corpses that approached him.

"Even if you have an army of ten thousand, you can hardly stop me alone!"

Another ascender was even more valiant; accompanied by a roar, he charged out like a bulldozer, forcefully smashing a gap through the encirclement of skinless corpses before him.

These people were clearly the best of the best in the mining area; had the Longevity Continent not been invaded by extraterrestrial demons and entered an Age of Dharma Decline no longer suitable for cultivation, with their talent and ability, they would never have been reduced to becoming miners.

With several people working together, they were getting closer and closer to the exit of the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array.

They could even smell the air of freedom.

"Brothers, give it one more push; we're just one step away!"

The tall ascender roared and charged forward.

At this time, inside the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array, the counterattack of the skinless corpses became increasingly fierce.

One ascender after another fell, becoming one of the sources of power for the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array.

Evil energy and the scent of blood soared into the sky; the entire Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array was like a giant meat grinder, incessantly grinding away the lives of these ascenders who had entered it.

However, when humans face a desperate situation, they are often able to erupt with unparalleled courage and potential.

In the end, five ascenders gradually approached the exit of the Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array.

They were all covered in wounds, some so deep that white, ghastly bone frames could be seen, which was incredibly chilling.

Yet, despite being heavily wounded, their faces were filled with excitement.

Because they were finally going to leave this dark and sunless mining area!

That tall ascender, like a demon god, was the first to step out.

The other four followed closely behind.

They finally saw the outside world, and this was also their last look at this world.

A cyan flying shuttle, fast as lightning, instantly pierced through the skulls of the five, leaving their brains wide open.

All five of them widened their eyes.

They had clearly broken through the most dangerous Ten Thousand Corpse Evil Array, so why, in the end, did they still fail to survive?

All five felt extreme unwillingness in their hearts, but they could already clearly feel their life force continuously slipping away.

But immediately after, an even more soul-crushing scene appeared.

They saw a figure who should have long been dead, actually skipping out from the side...
