Chapter 61 – Ghost Soldiers Pass Through!

“We have entered the Ancient Land!”

Nearby, a group of Guyue Tower disciples looked out through the ship’s windows.

They saw that the world had turned a hazy yellow.

This was the scenery after entering the Ancient Land.

“This is only the outskirts of the Ancient Land. We haven’t yet reached the true Ancient Land’s ‘Yin City,’ which is the core area.”

“I’ve heard… all the Yin Soldiers in an entire Yin City are at the 2nd Revolution Perfection realm, surging like a tide!”

Everyone whispered among themselves.

Someone nodded with a serious expression, “That’s right, indeed!

But that’s only the weakest Yin City!

The powerful Yin Cities are packed with 3rd Revolution Yin Soldiers, even 4th Revolution Yin Soldiers and Ghost Generals! That’s truly terrifying!

It’s said the Yin Energy there has condensed into a tangible form.”

“Isn’t this too dangerous?”

“Is this a place we should even come to?!”

Some grew fearful upon hearing this, their faces turning pale.

Another person comforted them, “What’s there to fear? Risk and reward go hand in hand. Although the Ancient Land is dangerous, the drop rates are extremely high!

Legendary Grade equipment is dropped daily by someone!

This is our chance!”

“Yes, to secure this opportunity to come to the Ancient Land, I spent half my wealth bribing an Elder.”

A young man said with a pained expression.

Not far away, Guyue Qing listened to the discussions and couldn’t help but sigh.

Those like her, at the 2nd Revolution Perfection realm, were usually considered capable individuals who could hold their own.

But after coming to the Ancient Land, they had become like fresh novices, needing to be escorted to the Ancient Land.

Take her, Guyue Qing, for example. When she went out on missions, others would respectfully address her as Lord.

But now…

Guyue Qing shook her head and gritted her teeth, “This time, I must find a way to promote to the 3rd Revolution Ghost General Realm!”

She had been stuck at the 2nd Revolution for many years.

She had even prepared the Class Advancement Item, but she had hesitated to crush it.

Because she wasn’t 100% confident she could cross the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation!

Coming to the Ancient Land this time was also to obtain one or two pieces of Legendary Grade equipment to increase her chances of successfully crossing the tribulation.

“See those spatial rifts?”

Someone chuckled.

“I see them! What about them?” The person beside them looked puzzled.

That person said, “It’s said these spatial rifts connect to the Yin Cities deep within the Ancient Land. Occasionally, Yin Soldiers cross through them.

If we encounter them, we’re most likely doomed!”

“Jinx! How could we be that unlucky?!”

Someone scolded.

“It’s that dangerous?”

Some grew frightened upon hearing this, their voices trembling slightly.

Seeing their fear, someone immediately spoke in a deep, reassuring tone, “Everyone, rest assured! The Ghost Dragon’s defenses are strong, and we have several Elders like Feng Yuqin escorting us. Nothing will go wrong!”

As they spoke, they glanced at the other person and warned, “Don’t spout nonsense!”

Hearing this, that person obediently closed their mouth.

Guyue Qing withdrew her gaze and looked toward the several 3rd Revolution Elders deep in the cabin, a shadow of gloom in her expression.

In her heart, she had a bad premonition.

It seemed as if something was about to happen!

Gradually, everyone in the cabin grew tired and lost interest in talking.

The entire cabin fell into a heavy silence. No one spoke, only hoping to reach the core of the Ancient Land as soon as possible.

There, the Guyue Tower had a base and a large number of Guyue Tower Elders.

Once there, it would actually be safer!

…

Just as everyone was growing drowsy.

The hull of Ghost Dragon suddenly shook violently, as if struck by some massive object, jolting all those who had been sleeping into wakefulness.

“What happened?”

Someone opened their eyes, their face filled with alarm and uncertainty.

“I don’t know!” another shook their head.

Guyue Qing also opened her eyes warily, but after the violent shaking, Ghost Dragon quickly steadied itself.

At that moment, someone peered through the ship’s window, tilting their gaze upward, and the next moment, their voice trembled: “Look… what is that?”

Hearing this, everyone crowded around the windows, looking up and outward.

But at that sight, their faces turned ashen!

Many widened their eyes in terror.

“It’s Yin Soldiers crossing the border!”

“We’ve encountered Yin Soldiers crossing the border!”

“Damn it!”

In an instant, chaos erupted inside the cabin.

At this moment.

If viewed from a distance, a terrifying scene would unfold!

As Guyue Tower’s Ghost Dragon advanced, a spatial rift suddenly tore open above it.

Then… that spatial rift seemed to pour out black water, which surged madly toward the warship.

But if one looked closer, it was clear this was no black water.

It was clearly a tide of Yin Soldiers!

Due to their sheer numbers, they converged as they poured out of the spatial rift, making it appear as though black water was being poured out.

Faced with such a multitude of Yin Soldiers,

Ghost Dragon automatically launched a counterattack, with streaks of dark light rising and incinerating large swathes of Yin Soldiers.

But the number of Yin Soldiers was simply too great.

Even more critically, the Yin Soldiers pouring out of the spatial rift were all at the 3rd Revolution.

Their formidable Combat Power was something a single warship could not withstand.

They directly engulfed the warship.

Boom!

High in the sky.

Ghost Dragon lasted only a moment before exploding, turning into a ball of fire.

Hundreds of figures leaped out in haste, falling like raindrops toward the forest below.

Guyue Qing was among these hundreds of figures, her body plummeting like a cannonball toward the earth below.

Everything happened too quickly!

Everyone had still been asleep, and the next moment, this disaster struck.

Ghost Dragon was directly blown apart!

Then, in a daze, she followed the others and leaped out, falling toward the earth below.

She was only a 2nd Revolution Cultivator and could not yet perform Aerial Flight, but her powerful physical constitution prevented her from falling to her death.

A moment later.

Boom!

Guyue Qing crashed into the ground like a cannonball, creating a large crater.

Her face pale, she ignored the intense pain in her legs and looked up at the sky above.

There, a fierce battle was unfolding!

Several Elders from Guyue Tower, who were escorting them, were fighting the sudden Ghost Tide.

“Heavens~! We really did encounter Yin Soldiers crossing the border! And it’s a 3rd Revolution Ghost Tide, that jinx!”

Someone shouted in terror!

Faced with a 3rd Revolution Ghost Tide, they, as 2nd Revolution Cultivators, were utterly powerless to help.

“Not good! It’s Elder Feng Yuqin. Her limbs have been pierced by ghostly chains, and she’s been captured.”

Someone’s eyes widened in fury as they gazed up at the battle in the sky.

Guyue Qing looked up, her eyes instantly reddening.

She saw Feng Yuqin fiercely battling the Ghost Tide, but several Yin Soldiers at the 3rd Revolution Perfection Realm within the tide had targeted her.

Chains in their hands pierced through Feng Yuqin’s body, locking her in place. No matter how she struggled, it was futile.

As for the other Elders, they had no time to spare to rescue her.

Boom!

The next second.

The disciples of Guyue Tower witnessed the scene they least wanted to see.

Feng Yuqin was dismembered by several Yin Soldiers at the 3rd Revolution Perfection Realm, her body exploding into countless pieces, and a rain of blood fell from the sky.

“Elder Feng Yuqin!”

Witnessing this scene, countless disciples of Guyue Tower cried out in anguish.

At the same time.

Over a hundred miles away, a Ghost Mist Boat drifted leisurely forward.
