Mortals' aspirations to cultivate immortality

Low-level ghosts don’t have much intelligence. Once there are no high-level ghosts to suppress and maintain order, they will fight among themselves.

Even ghosts of the same species, as long as they are not from the same group, will fight.

Wang Kaixu and his team were lucky to encounter ghosts that were still gathering.

Otherwise, the ghosts that have already gathered can completely draw more Jindan combat forces to encircle Wang Kaixu and his team.

Lin Yi frowned when he heard this: "So what you mean is that the ghosts gathered in large numbers and there is a possibility of attacking the Buried Bone Pass?"

"There is such a possibility." Wang Kaixu said: "There has been no major battle in the Buried Bone Pass for nearly ten years. This time they gathered without any signs, so there is a high probability that they are going to attack the Buried Bone Pass."

"This..."

Lin Yi didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing when he came to the Nether Ghost Cave.

Next, I'm afraid there will be a big battle.

Lin Yi and his team were only about 5,000 miles away from the Buried Bone Pass. With Ao Wushuang's full burst, it only took a quarter of an hour to reach it.

Therefore, even if the ghosts behind them had higher cultivation than Lin Yi and his team, it was impossible for them to catch up with them before Lin Yi and his team returned to the Bone Burial Pass.

Moreover, Li Caiwei was the first to go back to the Bone Burial Pass for help.

Lin Yi and his team had just escaped for half a quarter of an hour when they noticed that there were three extremely fast auras coming straight towards them from the direction of the Bone Burial Pass.

Two of the auras were from Li Caiwei and Huang Xiaoya, and the other one was probably from the general of the Bone Burial Pass.

The reason why they were sure that the other party was a general was because the other party's cultivation was Jindan Perfection!

Jindan Perfection, in such a key fortress, even if it is not the highest commander, the position is definitely not low.

Unexpectedly, the reinforcements brought by Li Caiwei turned out to be a Jindan Perfection.

If it was Jindan Perfection, Lin Yi's consciousness swept over the ghosts that were getting closer and closer to them, and finally shook his head and gave up.

With their strength, plus the Jindan Perfection who came to support, it is definitely possible to leave the six ghosts behind.

But it was too risky to do so, after all, there were more ghosts following behind.

With such a large number of ghosts, there might be Yuanying-level ghosts in charge, and it was unknown how many there were.

Six ghosts were at least in the late Jindan stage, which was also an extremely powerful fighting force.

If Lin Yi and his team left the six ghosts here, they might alarm the Yuanying-level ghosts.

Once the Yuanying-level ghosts were dispatched, Lin Yi and his team would be in danger.

Although there were Yuanyings in charge at the Buried Bone Pass, it was hard to say whether he could rescue them in time.

Lin Yi did not want to bet his life on whether the Buried Bone Pass had a chance to save them.

"It was General Qin Zhanwu Qin of the Buried Bone Pass!"

After getting close enough, Wang Kaixu also noticed Li Caiwei and others who were heading straight here through his spiritual sense, and pointed out the identity of the Jindan Perfection.

Seeing Lin Yi and the others looking at him curiously, Wang Kaixu said, "General Qin Zhanwu is the deputy general of the Bone-Burning Pass and one of the four deputy generals of the Bone-Burning Pass."

Lin Yi understood then. It seems that the Bone-Burning Pass attaches great importance to the gathering of ghosts. This time, a deputy general was sent to check it out.

Soon, the two sides met.

The six ghosts noticed that Qin Zhanwu came to support them and stopped immediately. After a little hesitation, they turned around and flew back.

"This is not the place to talk. Let's go back and talk on the way."

Qin Zhanwu's appearance is in line with Lin Yi's imagination of a general. He has a strong back and stubble, and exudes a majestic temperament.

Even though they are both Jindan Zhenren, Qin Zhanwu gives Lin Yi a feeling that is more oppressive than the iron zombie transformed from the corpse of Yuncan Zhenjun.

Is this the aura of a cultivator who has been through many battles and is in a high position?

On the way back, Wang Kaixu explained in detail to Qin Zhanwu how they noticed the gathering of ghosts, how they were discovered and intercepted by ghosts, and how they were rescued by Lin Yi and others.

He also praised Lin Yi and others for being foreign cultivators and still lending a hand in that situation.

For this, Lin Yi secretly gave Wang Kaixu a thumbs up. It has been quite a while since he came to the Great Qin Empire. Lin Yi naturally knew how the cultivators of the Great Qin Empire viewed the outside cultivators.

Selfish, greedy and cruel, just like bandits, they do not have the character of a cultivator at all and are not worthy of being called a cultivator. Only the cultivators of the Great Qin Empire are the real cultivators, the "true cultivators" that have been circulating in the cultivation world!

In this case, many cultivators of the Great Qin Empire naturally dislike the outside cultivators, especially the soldiers like Qin Zhanwu who are on the front line of fighting ghosts, who sneer at the outside cultivators.

Although Lin Yi and others can now enter the Nether Ghost Cave, they cannot be called the Great Qin cultivators.

Wang Kaixu praised Lin Yi and others in front of Qin Zhanwu, naturally wanting to reduce the malice of Qin Zhanwu and other soldiers towards Lin Yi and others.

Who knew that Qin Zhanwu rolled his eyes at Wang Kaixu: "I am not a pedantic person, so there is no need for you to keep emphasizing other people's achievements."

He looked at Lin Yi and others and said: "You have done a good job. If you fail the assessment of Qingyang College in the future, you can come to my Bone Burial Pass."

The meaning of this statement is naturally that the other party is willing to take care of him in the future.

Lin Yi was naturally not an ungrateful person, and hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you General Qin for your appreciation. We will often come to the direction of the Bone-Bone Pass in the future. I hope General Qin will take care of us."

"It's a small matter." Qin Zhanwu waved his hand: "As for your contribution, I will also remember it in the Bone-Bone Pass. I will reward you after resolving this crisis."

Lin Yi and his companions bowed and thanked him immediately after hearing this.

Although they didn't care about any reward at all in their situation, it represented a kind of recognition.

It would be much more convenient to act in the Bone-Bone Pass in the future.

Soon, Lin Yi and his companions returned to the Bone-Bone Pass smoothly.

After letting Lin Yi and his companions make their own arrangements in the pass, Qin Zhanwu flew directly to the City Lord's Mansion in the pass.

At this special moment, the pass was not allowed to leave, so Lin Yi and his companions did not leave the Bone-Bone Pass, but temporarily followed Wang Kaixu and his companions to rest in the other courtyard built by Qingyang Academy in the Bone-Bone Pass.

This is the advantage of being a big force. In order to facilitate the training organized by the academy, the academy has set up a branch courtyard in each fortress, which can be used with the identity token of Qingyang Academy.

On the other side, where Lin Yi and his friends could not see, a figure came out of the Buried Bone Pass and headed straight for the Netherworld.

If Lin Yi used the double pupil technique to take a look at this figure, he would be surprised to find that this figure was actually a Yuanying Zhenjun!
