Chapter 2422: Journey of Death

Ye Liuyun's Death Journey training has finally begun.

A total of twelve Black Kill members are participating in this training.

These people have finally all arrived.

Under the lead of Wu Hen and several other Stewards, they passed through a Teleportation Array together and arrived in an unfamiliar world.

Ye Liuyun released his Divine Sense and found that this small world is not very large; his current Divine Sense could cover the entire small world.

But this small world is heavy with Yin Qi, clearly not a good place.

His Divine Sense also detected another team of Martial Cultivators, some of whom wore soldier armor, looking like military personnel.

In front of that group of soldiers, there was an entrance to a Secret Realm.

"Is this the training Secret Realm?"

Someone asked the Steward.

The Steward replied directly: "No.

However, this place is extremely dangerous; you must be careful and follow us!"

Then the Stewards led these members toward the Secret Realm entrance.

The distance seemed short, but the Stewards were very tense, their True Essence ready to burst, standing on guard.

Seeing their tension, Ye Liuyun scanned forward with his Golden Pupil.

Ahead lay a swamp, beneath which many Yin Souls were hidden.

In some parts of the swamp, hidden beneath, were sparks of Yin Fire, clearly traps.

So he also moved cautiously, avoiding the Yin Souls on the path.

But he deliberately stepped onto the Yin Fire, seizing the chance to absorb it.

Seeing his cautious demeanor, the other Black Kill members mocked him.

"Training hasn't even started, and you're already scared?"

The Martial Cultivator who had previously looked down on Ye Liuyun began to provoke again.

This drew a burst of laughter from the others.

Ye Liuyun chose not to engage them, and the Steward ahead scolded that person, urging them to strengthen their defenses.

"Having a background makes you a bull!"

The Martial Cultivator didn't mind, merely muttering a sour remark.

Ye Liuyun glanced at his position, and instead of anger, gave a slight smile.

The Martial Cultivator hadn't expected Ye Liuyun not to argue, and found it uninteresting.

But the next moment, he suddenly felt the ground give way beneath his feet, and something seized his legs.

He reacted swiftly; after all, he is an elite among assassins, and immediately launched an attack downward.

However, his attack had little effect on the Yin Souls below; they coiled up his body and surged straight into his Sea of Consciousness.

The Yin Souls here are certainly not weak.

But a single Yin Soul might not be able to handle that Martial Cultivator.

Then, several more Yin Souls leapt out from beneath his feet, all charging into his Sea of Consciousness.

That wasn't all; after the Yin Souls entered his Sea of Consciousness, a burst of Yin Fire erupted beneath his feet, engulfing him.

The rapid succession of attacks was extremely fast; a Steward immediately slapped the Yin Fire with a palm, generating a burst of cold, while another Steward produced a golden copper mirror and shone it at that Black Kill member.

"Aoo!"

The Yin Soul in the assassin's Sea of Consciousness was instantly forced out by the Golden Light from the copper mirror, screaming as it darted back into the swamp.

The Yin Fire was immediately suppressed, but the Martial Cultivator's legs had been burned down to mere bone.

"Ah!"

The assassin, regaining his senses, felt the pain and let out a wail.

At this moment, others were also attacked.

However, the others, after the sudden incident, protected their bodies with True Essence, so their injuries were not as severe as the assassin's.

Even though they weren't burned by Yin Fire, they all suffered attacks from Yin Souls.

Only Ye Liuyun stood still in place, untouched by any Yin Soul attack.

Because he had already sensed that those Yin Souls sensed the aura of the Underworld Lord on him and were avoiding him.

Amid the chaos, the Stewards urged everyone to rush out of the swamp area.

Ye Liuyun continued to watch his feet, absorbing the Yin Fire to avoid stepping into the mire.

He paid no heed to the surrounding Yin Souls.

Several Stewards not only had to protect themselves but also these Black Kill members, inevitably sometimes unable to cover everyone.

The member previously burned was again targeted by Yin Souls, which instantly extinguished his Soul, causing him to collapse first in the swamp.

The Stewards kept urging everyone to run forward, while Ye Liuyun was left far behind.

"Keep up!"

Wu Hen sent a Transmission Voice to Ye Liuyun in secret, reminding him to keep up with the team so he wouldn't be left behind.

"Don't worry, you go ahead!"

Ye Liuyun, however, drifted slowly behind at an unhurried pace.

More Yin Souls lay ahead, increasing the team's pressure, and unlucky members kept being annihilated by Yin Souls.

The soldiers in the distance were speculating how many of their team would remain in the end.

By the time they surged through the swamp and reached the Secret Realm entrance, only eight of their group remained.

At this point, everyone finally noticed Ye Liuyun, seeing that he was still strolling slowly in the swamp.

And those Yin Souls had all disappeared; not a single one went to attack him.

Yin Fire also did not appear, as if they were all avoiding him.

After Ye Liuyun walked over, seeing everyone looking at him, he could only smile and explain: "Maybe my realm is too low, those Yin Souls aren't interested in me."

But just as Ye Liuyun finished saying that, everyone's faces changed, and they looked in terror behind him.

Ye Liuyun also turned back and saw that in the swamp, countless Yin Souls had leapt out, among them mixed with countless Yin Fire.

If so many Yin Souls were to attack them all at once, they would definitely not be able to withstand it.

"Uh... the secret is out!"

But Ye Liuyun knew what these Yin Souls were about to do; not only that, it was somewhat awkward.

Next, those Yin Souls all bowed to him in unison.

Ye Liuyun waved his hand, and only then did those Yin Souls and Yin Fire sink back into the ground.

This time, everyone again turned their gaze toward Ye Liuyun.

"Uh... I think they're thanking me for not attacking them!"

Ye Liuyun explained awkwardly.

This excuse, those clever people definitely won't believe.

But if Ye Liuyun doesn't say, they can only guess wildly in their hearts.

Those who previously looked down on Ye Liuyun, some began to value him, while others thought he had used some treasure.

Wu Hen nodded approvingly at him; although he showed no outward expression, he felt proud of his own judgment in his heart.

He knew Ye Liuyun surely had intimidated those Yin Souls with his strength.

Since he began training Ye Liuyun, he had never seen him use any treasure.

But as for what cultivation method it is, he definitely would not ask.

Those are all secrets of Martial Cultivators.

What Ye Liuyun was thinking at this moment was: before training even started, four of them had already died on this side, showing that this journey of death is truly not to be underestimated.

This time encountering Yin Souls was lucky for him; next time he may not be so fortunate.

So he immediately used a Primordial Exchange Stone to convert a Primordial Power energy crystal, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to absorb it.

"Seize the time, every bit of improvement counts."

He thought to himself.
