Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

"This coffin is empty!"

"Whatever was inside either ran away, or... is no longer here!"

"Best that it isn't here, otherwise next, we're in trouble!"

Several people exchanged words while spreading their divine sense outward.

Try to capture every movement here clearly.

Xu Zhangqing aimed the Guanling Mirror at the empty coffin and could see several residual marks on the coffin, quite similar to those on the previous two coffins: "Judging by the wear, this coffin has existed for at least a thousand years; whatever was inside is probably gone."

Continuing forward for less than three li, the group fell into a "sea of coffins."

Coffins of all sizes floated on the water surface.

Some were intact.

Some were damaged beyond repair.

Some stood upright.

Some lay horizontally.

In short, densely packed, with no end in sight at a glance.

The rock walls on both banks were even more exaggerated, with countless coffins embedded in them, layered upon layered, extending from the water surface all the way to the top of the rock walls, as dense as a beehive.

Especially the Yin Sha Qi, which had become concentrated to the extreme.

Combined with the Taiyin Power generated by the Yin River, the ice crystals were no longer tiny white particles but condensed into thumb-sized ice cones, constantly smashing against the ferry boat and the water surface.

The sound of "pattering" never ceased.

The Purify Sha Pattern operated at full power, the gloomy blue spiritual light forming a thick spiritual shield, barely resisting the interference of the Yin Sha Qi, while the consumption speed of high-grade spirit stones suddenly doubled.

To everyone's surprise, the spirit talismans on the coffins were no longer just Lock Yin Talismans and Suppression Sha Talismans.

On many coffins, on the coffin lid or both sides of the coffin body, were affixed spirit talismans emitting a faint golden light, their runes more complex than Suppression Sha Talismans and Lock Yin Talismans, overall spiral-shaped, forming a strong counteraction against the surrounding Yin Sha Qi and Taiyin Power.

Xu Zhangqing's pupils shrank slightly: "I've never seen this kind of spirit talisman!"

Its aura was purer than the Suppression Sha Talisman, seemingly used specially to suppress the Yin Evil Origin.

The female earth leaned close to the Guanling Mirror: "This seems to be a Suppression Yuan Talisman of a higher grade than the Suppression Sha Talisman, originating from Array Masters or Xunlong Sect masters of the Ancient Period."

Back then, such people, when walking graves and probing pulses, would always suffer interference from underground Yin Sha Qi, so they created this kind of restraining spirit talisman.

The number of Suppression Yuan Talismans was not many, and was even quite rare.

Moreover, they had been lost for several thousand years.

Now they only existed in legends, basically unseen outside.

Never expected to actually see them with my own eyes in the Yin River—truly unbelievable.

Moreover, the coffins affixed with Suppression Yuan Talismans were different too.

Some were Xuan Iron Coffins, pitch black all over.

Some were Ink Jade Coffins, glowing with jade light.

There were also Bone Coffins pieced together from unknown beast bones.

The Suppression Yuan Talismans on these coffins shone brightly, clearly still functioning, even making the surrounding Yin Sha Qi much thinner.

Zhu Rong couldn't help but ask: "Why are there so many coffins in Taiyin Jushi's seclusion place?"

What exactly is being suppressed inside these coffins!"

However, no one could answer.

Everyone was the same, coming here for the first time.

In fact, whether this place was really Taiyin Jushi's seclusion place was still questionable.

Out of safety considerations, logically they should have turned the ferry boat around and left at this point.

However, Xu Zhangqing ultimately hesitated.

Not to mention, waiting for the Shuo Yue Night would take a long time.

The key was, after finally arriving here, if there was no gain at all, wouldn't it be a wasted trip, wasting time and opportunity then?

Therefore, Xu Zhangqing stared fixedly at the Guanling Mirror, constantly checking the surroundings.

Just like that, after advancing a certain distance, several people shockingly discovered that, under the intervention of the thick Earth Qi, the Taiyin Power and Yin Sha Qi actually formed a strange balance.

Even in mid-air, they condensed into a pillar of light intertwined black and white.

From this, it could be seen that this place was the convergence point of Earth Qi, Taiyin Power, and Yin Sha Qi.

……

……

The black-and-white intertwined light pillar, like a boundary marker of yin and yang division, firmly locked the surrounding Yin Sha Qi and Taiyin Power in a state of balance.

Xu Zhangqing controlled the ferry boat to approach; although the exploration range of the Guanling Mirror was still restricted, it was enough to clearly see the scene beneath the light pillar.

It was a relatively flat body of water, but in the rock walls on both sides stood dozens of stone statues and bronze statues with ferocious forms.

And without exception, they were either damaged or covered in rust.

Each one stood three zhang tall, their bodies wrapped in thumb-thick chains, one end of the chains embedded in the rock wall, the other end deeply nailed into the bodies of the stone statues and bronze statues.

Their postures varied; some held giant axes, glaring with wide eyes.

Some formed hand seals with both hands, their expressions solemn.

Some were prostrate on the ground, as if enduring some kind of punishment.

Tai Bai put away his smoke gun, his expression shaken: "These are... used to suppress things?"

Xu Zhangqing's first reaction upon seeing these stone statues and bronze statues was actually to think of the Earth Pulse Abyss Master, namely Zhu Shi's junior brother.

Every time that person appeared, or rather, whenever a Spiritual Root Cultivator entered the Earth Abyss, they almost always manifested via spiritual projection.

And without exception, they all had chains on their bodies.

At first, they thought they were magic tools or similar items.

Now it seemed more like some kind of terrifying "curse."

Could it be that these stone statues and bronze statues were all living people when they were alive!

Thinking of this, Xu Zhangqing controlled the ferry boat to approach one of the stone statues.

With the Guanling Mirror reflecting, they could clearly see gray decayed bones embedded in the cracks of the stone statue.

Seeing this scene, everyone understood in an instant.

These stone statues and bronze statues were used to suppress whatever was inside the coffins.

As for exactly what it was, it was still unknown for now.

After all, they had not opened a single coffin up to now.

The female earth reached out to touch the surface of the stone statue; her fingertips felt an icy touch, along with faint Yin Sha Qi fluctuations: "They have been suppressing things here for at least thousands of years, and the chains are almost completely corroded by Yin Sha Qi."

If not for that black-and-white light pillar maintaining balance, they would have long since...

Although she trailed off, everyone knew what she meant.

This Yin River was full of crises; indeed, it was not a place for "people."

Zhu Rong surveyed another armless stone statue and sighed: "To suppress something with such a grand array, whatever is inside the coffin must have stirred up no small storm back then."

Passing through the group of stone statues, the view ahead suddenly opened up.

The source of the black-and-white light pillar was a cave abode embedded in the rock wall.

The entrance was five zhang high and three zhang wide.

Outside was enveloped in a layer of gloomy blue spiritual light, and the spiritual light resonated faintly with the spirit patterns of the ferry boat.

There was no Yin Sha Qi here, nor coffins filling the sky; even the air was fresh, and the spiritual energy was especially pure.

Compared to this, the coffin sea just now was like two different worlds.

Xu Zhangqing's eyes lit up: "Presumably, this is Taiyin Jushi's seclusion place!"

Immediately, he controlled the ferry boat to pass through the spirit light barrier and docked steadily at the dock.

Then everyone raised their eyes to look; they saw only that the interior was spacious and bright, with large night pearls embedded in the rock walls.

The ground was paved with smooth white jade bricks, and at the end of the stone wall were densely engraved characters.

As expected, it should be another message left behind by Taiyin Jushi!
