Besides their expressionless faces, the Yin Qi they exuded could also hide inside cultivators with the help of special elixirs, making them undetectable even through the Spirit Wood Technique used by Qi-refining cultivators.

Lin Yi’s face became grave. He didn’t believe that the Xuan Yin Sect cultivators simply wanted another helper by merging the Evil Spirits with a cultivator’s body. Instead, they probably had a deeper purpose, which was to target their fellow sect members.

The secret realm was extremely dangerous and was full of random locations. Therefore, only a small number of cultivators would eventually reach the Alchemy Room or Cave Mansion.

The Xuan Yin Sect only had three such Evil Spirits, so they were definitely reserved for critical moments. They intended to use the bodies of possessed cultivators to attack their fellow sect members and reduce the competition.

This was indeed the work of the Evil Cultivation Sect. There was no end to their nefarious methods.

One could imagine that if the three Xuan Yin Sect cultivators eventually united, they might monopolize the Alchemy Room or the Cave Mansion. No wonder the Xuan Yin Sect cultivator had been following him; They had intended to turn him into a puppet. Unfortunately for them, they had followed the wrong person.

Lin Yi decided not to retain these Evil Spirit Magic Artifacts. He directly used a slightly weaker thunder and lightning attack, forcing these Evil Spirits to reveal themselves, and they exuded Yin Evil Qi. Then, he used the Rebirth Charms to guide them to reincarnation.

The Rebirth Charms he made were imbued with the cultivation power of a Foundation Building cultivator. The light golden spiritual power in them, under the effect of Realm Concealment, appeared to be normal spiritual power. However, in his eyes, they were Rebirth charms radiating with golden

After reaching the Foundation Building stage, when he killed those wicked men and guided their souls to reincarnation, such Rebirth Charms had a powerful effect. They were no longer limited to guiding one person to reincarnation per charm. Their guiding light could cover multiple people.

After guiding them to reincarnation, the three Evil Spirits, which had been emitting evil Qi, slowly turned into white illusions. Two of them bowed to Lin Yi, then turned into specks of light and disappeared into thin air.

And the Evil Spirit that had been sealed in the altar transformed into an illusion of a child with a pure and innocent face after its exorcism. It seemed to be uninformed of what had happened and curiously looked at Lin Yi before turning into a speck of light and vanishing.

Lin Yi’s face was as calm as still water. The Xuan Yin Sect was truly a cancer in the Cultivation World. From his previous experience, the Evil Spirits would transform back into their forms before their death after they were guided toward reincarnation.

It was clear that this Evil Spirit, which had reached the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, was killed when it was an aster and its consciousness was collected and nurtured until it grew up. This was perhaps known as raising a little ghost.

After the guiding ritual was finished, he tidied up the scene and hid in a nearby tree. He then activated the Concealing Breath Technique to hide all his breaths.

The reason why he had the Evil Spirits from the magic artifacts reveal themselves and emit Yin Evil Qi was to bait his rivals.

Other sect’s cultivators might have a weak sense of Yin Qi. However, the Xuan Yin Sect cultivators would definitely have a strong sense of it.

If there were Xuan Yin Sect cultivators in the nearby Wood Element, they would surely notice.

He allowed himself four hours to wait, after which he would proceed to Misty Forest regardless of the situation.

However, just before one hour had passed, Lin Yi felt a breath coming from afar. It did not approach this area but circled around it in the distance.

He smiled to himself. This Xuan Yin Sect cultivator was quite cautious.

After a while, an Evil Spirit flew over first and flew back after inspecting the surroundings.

Then, a cultivator exuding an evil aura quickly walked over. An Evil Spirit was following him. After sensing the surroundings, his brows furrowed.

“Strange, I clearly sensed a strong Yin Evil Qi emanating from this area. Why is it so calm here? There are no signs of a fight…”

Just as he was talking to himself, Lin Yi released a Thunder Spell without hesitation. The five thunder and lightning bolts, carrying the power of a Foundation Building cultivator, directly pierced through his multiple layers of defensive shields and turned him into a charred husk.

This time, he didn’t enter into a rage. The damage was perfectly sufficient— the body of the Xuan Yin Sect Cultivator did not completely turn into charcoal, but parts of it, like the top of his head that was struck by the lightning, bore traces of carbonization.

As for the Evil Spirit accompanying the cultivator, it dared not move at all as five thunderbolts were suspended above its head.

Although it lacked much wisdom, its fear of thunder seemed inborn, dwelling in its bloodline, akin to a natural predator.

Without hesitation, Lin Yi took out a Rebirth Charm, performing a ritual for it, then took the storage bag from the carbonized body of the Xuan Yin Sect Cultivator, skillfully delivering the last rites to his body, coupled with the erosion of poisonous water.

However, even though the body was not completely charred, under the light of the Rebirth Charm, no resentment emerged from within it. The power of a Foundation Establishment Realm’s Thunder Spell was just too overwhelming —it obliviated the spirit and form in a single strike.

Soon, the body had turned into a puddle of water, earning him more than 260 Virtue Points. It seemed the first Xuan Yin Sect Cultivator was a big fish.

Lin Yi waited a bit at the original site, not sensing any other presences approaching. Only then did he retrieve all the Evil Spirit Magic Artifacts in the storage bag, though there was no vat-like object inside, proving that this was a small fish.

He packed up the other items and headed towards the Misty Forest. Being able to catch something was still somewhat rewarding.

Of the ten Xuan Yin Sect Cultivators who entered the Secret Realm, two had already been dealt with, leaving eight presumably in other areas—it was left to fate.

On the way to the Misty Forest, Lin Yi didn’t encounter much trouble. His poison sensing ability from [Fearless of Poison] allowed him to dodge certain poisons in advance.

As for some Monster Beasts present in the forest, before they could react, he had already dashed past them.

After killing two Xuan Yin Sect Cultivators, he temporarily removed the title of “Little Compassion Little Mercy”, switching it for a speed-enhancing title, to reach the Misty Forest more quickly.

Meanwhile, the “Little Compassion Little Mercy” title was in reserve. He could rapidly switch the titles in the reserve slot. This was more convenient than removing a title and then putting on another one.

Based on his previous observations, Lin Yi was aware of his approximate location on the outskirts of the Secret Realm, and he wasn’t moving in a straight line towards the Misty Forest.

Hence, at his current speed, it would still take about two days to get there. These two days, however, were based on a Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s speed, adding the title’s effect.

If an ordinary cultivator of the Qi Refining Ninth Layer was located similarly to him and traveled in a straight line to the Misty Forest, it would take at least four to five days.

Though the Secret Realm’s transmission location varies, most people end up at the edge, an extensive area where you might end up teleported closer to the Misty Forest.

Before entering the Secret Realm, he had contemplated using Virtue Points to enter a minor lucky state, which might have taken him to a closer location.

But then he thought better of it. He entered the Secret Realm to find treasures, usually hidden in the most dangerous places. Entering the Minor Luck State might teleport him into a perilous area, making it a case of a loss outweighing the gain.

People typically travel in a straight line, but to play it safe, Lin Yi decided to move along an arch from his current position, reducing the probability of encountering cultivators from other sects.

On his journey, Lin Yi was lucky enough to trigger the special effects of the speed titles twice—Sprint and Instant Teleport. Of these, the Sprint Effect was triggered three times while Instant Teleport only once.

The Sprint Effect had a 15% trigger chance, increasing the speed up to 70% for nine seconds, with a cooldown of five minutes.

Instant Teleport had a 7% trigger chance, the teleporting distance depended on the cultivator’s level with one hour cooldown.

Nonetheless, the teleported distance during Instant Teleport was far greater than what he achieved via three Sprints, shortening the journey by about fifteen minutes.

However, Instant Teleport posed risks. The one time he triggered it, he teleported right next to a pack of Wolf Demons. Luckily, he ran fast..
