Chapter 1486: Corpse Demon Siege

After everyone had eaten their fill and drunk their fill, they finally left the Secret Realm. Love reading w/w/w.. c/o/m

Ye Liuyun, before departing, performed a bow to the Secret Realm, expressing his gratitude to it.

But as soon as they emerged, a Corpse Demon belonging to a Ninth‑Tier Heavenly Venerable in the distance spotted them.

"Roar!"

The Corpse Demon let out a loud roar and immediately lunged toward them.

"Set up the Defense Array!"

Ye Liuyun shouted to Guo Da, then instantly drew the Demon Slaying Sword and charged out.

Aya also tried to cast a spell on the Corpse Demon to aid Ye Liuyun, but she discovered that spells were completely ineffective against these Corpse Demons.

They were all dead objects with no sign of life. So Aya immediately slipped into the Formation that Guo Da had just set up.

"Boom!"

Ye Liuyun was blasted away by the Corpse Demon, but at the same time he sliced off one of its arms.

"Roar!"

The Corpse Demon howled in pain and charged at Ye Liuyun again.

Just as before, Ye Liuyun blocked its attack with his body and took the opportunity to chop off another arm.

The Corpse Demon, not knowing to flee, roared and tried to lunge forward to bite Ye Liuyun, but Ye Liuyun sliced its head clean off with a single strike.

Seeing the Corpse Demon easily dispatched by Ye Liuyun, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and tried to exit the Formation.

"Don't come out!" Ye Liuyun shouted immediately.

"What's wrong?" the others asked Ye Liuyun, puzzled.

"That Corpse Demon's roar just now was summoning its comrades; other Corpse Demons have already rushed over. "You are inside the Formation, using Kuailei, treasures, and pills to ambush; I'm out here drawing their attention," Ye Liuyun told the others.

"No, the Corpse Demons of the Ninth‑Tier Heavenly Venerable are too dangerous, and there's more than one! You should also enter the Formation; we'll eliminate them one by one," Luo Yun said, worried about Ye Liuyun's safety.

Ye Liuyun smiled reassuringly at Luo Yun: "It's fine, they can't hurt me! When I can't hold out any longer, I'll go back in, it'll still be in time."

"Alright, just don't push yourself too hard!" Luo Yun could only bless him and then began preparing pills.

Meng Zhangxing also readied a Kuailei, preparing to send it out for a sneak attack.

"Roar, roar, roar..."

From several distant directions, the roars of Corpse Demons echoed.

Soon, their Divine Senses all detected more than twenty Corpse Demons racing toward them.

"So many!" Meng Zhangxing and the others were startled.

Ye Liuyun also worried: "Too many! One at a time is manageable, but this many Corpse Demons together—how can we fight?"

He was now unsure whether his Physical Body could withstand the successive attacks of so many Corpse Demons.

Thinking of this, Ye Liuyun took out his Sky‑Wandering Boots, put them on, and charged in one direction.

A few Corpse Demons immediately gave chase, but most still rushed toward the Formation.

"He... left?" Aya asked, a bit confused.

"Impossible!" Meng Zhangxing said confidently: "He's worried that the Corpse Demons gathering together are unbeatable, so he lured away a portion to eliminate them one by one!"

Aya looked puzzled at Guo Da and Luo Yun, who both smiled and nodded, and she felt a little more at ease.

Soon, they were surrounded by Corpse Demons. The scent of Human Martial Cultivators provoked the Corpse Demons even more, and they began bombarding the Defense Array wildly.

Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense detected that he had attracted three Corpse Demons.

His Golden Pupil also spotted a Formation ahead.

Although Ye Liuyun cannot break formations, his Golden Pupil can still discern simple formations.

So he immediately circled to the back of the Formation and waited for the three Corpse Demons to charge.

The three Corpse Demons split into three paths, flanking Ye Liuyun, racing forward.

Suddenly, the middle Corpse Demon vanished and entered the Formation.

Corpse Demons have low spiritual intelligence; seeing a companion disappear, they were stunned.

Ye Liuyun seized the chance, accelerated, and rushed toward the left Corpse Demon, slashing at its chest.

The Corpse Demon reacted swiftly, instinctively punching out and blasting Ye Liuyun away, but Ye Liuyun's slash still cleanly cut through its chest.

The wound inflicted by the Demon Slaying Sword left the Corpse Demon unable to recover.

At that moment, another Corpse Demon also lunged at Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun leapt into the air, a blade aimed straight at the Corpse Demon's heart.

The Corpse Demon underestimated Ye Liuyun and tried to grab the Demon Slaying Sword, thinking that with Ye Liuyun's level it couldn't possibly harm it.

However, although it seized the Demon Slaying Sword, the sword sliced off its finger, and then plunged straight into the Corpse Demon's heart.

The Demon Slaying Sword is the bane of these monsters; cutting them is as easy as slicing paper.

Ye Liuyun followed up with another slash, cleaving the Corpse Demon in two.

Then he immediately turned back, cutting toward the Corpse Demon that had just been wounded.

Having witnessed the power of Ye Liuyun's Demon Slaying Sword, the Corpse Demon turned to flee. But Ye Liuyun, wearing the Sky‑Wandering Boots, was faster, caught up, and sliced the Corpse Demon's head off with a single strike.

"Huh!"

He exhaled, collected the core pills from two Corpse Demons, and was about to head back when he noticed that the Formation which had just engulfed a Corpse Demon suddenly began to ripple.

Soon, the ripple grew increasingly intense.

"Is it about to burst out?" Ye Liuyun guessed that the Corpse Demon might be trying to break out of the Formation, so he didn't leave immediately.

"Boom!"

After a violent surge, the Formation was finally shattered from within by the Corpse Demon! The Corpse Demon trapped inside the Formation was engulfed in white flames, howling as it burst out.

"Puff!"

Ye Liuyun was quick-eyed and quick-handed; with one blade he cut that Corpse Demon in half.

"It's actually yin fire!" Ye Liuyun dug out the Corpse Demon's core pellet, then examined the white flames on its body.

At this moment, the Secret Realm inside the Formation had already been ripped open, leaving a large hole.

If Ye Liuyun goes back to help the others kill the Corpse Demon, then when he returns perhaps this opening will have recovered.

Many Formations have an automatic recovery function.

Once the Formation recovers, if they want to enter again they can only proceed step by step into the Formation's interior to break it, which would waste a lot of time.

"Let's go in and take a look; they have Formation protection, so they should be fine for a short time!"

Ye Liuyun didn't think twice, decisively letting Nether Ghost Fire flare over his whole body, then rushed in through the gap the Corpse Demon had torn open.

Inside the Secret Realm, boulders were everywhere.

And at this moment he was situated among several boulders. Ye Liuyun clearly felt that these boulders contained the source of the yin fire. However, because the Corpse Demon had destroyed the stone formation by force, it is not burning now.

He scanned with his Divine Sense and found that not every stone formation possessed flame power; only the stone formation he was in had this yin fire.

Ye Liuyun had no interest in other resources either; he immediately gathered the nearby boulders and handed them to his clone inside the Space World for processing, then he himself returned at once.
