286. Corpse Demon Mountain

A streak of light flashed and settled in the sky above Corpse Demon Mountain, revealing its form.

"It truly lives up to its name, Corpse Demon Mountain," Lin Fei muttered as he looked down, "Cold, lifeless energy everywhere, coupled with a terrifying aura of decay. Even on its outskirts, I'd wager that anyone below the Foundation Establishment or Martial Saint levels wouldn't be able to enter."

Lin Fei had journeyed from the Ancient Origin Sect, traveling over a hundred thousand miles just to reach the Corpse Demon Mountain. Ever since he learned from Wind Sovereign about the abundance of Yin Evil Qi here, Lin Fei had set out without hesitation, even though the destination was so far away.

It was a long journey, but Lin Fei had finally arrived. For the cultivation of his Divine Ability, Black Wind Prison, distance was no barrier. Even if it were a million miles, as long as it benefited his Divine Ability, he would go.

With another flash, Lin Fei descended into the heart of Corpse Demon Mountain. This mountain range stretched for hundreds of miles, an incredibly vast expanse. The reason for the mountain's dense Yin Evil Qi was its history. Before it became Corpse Demon Mountain, it was an immortal sect known as Corpse Demon Sect.

This sect was once a major faction among the immortal sects, even ruling as a dominant power in the region. They primarily practiced corpse refinement, and their methods were unique. What truly set them apart was their ability to use refined corpses to resist the heavenly tribulations. Though they couldn't block them entirely, they could certainly mitigate a significant portion of its might. This advantage meant that Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Corpse Demon Sect had a much higher success rate when facing tribulations. As a result, many of them achieved the Golden Core stage.

At its peak, the Corpse Demon Sect boasted of having three hundred Golden Core cultivators. With this power, they expanded aggressively, annihilating countless other immortal sects and martial arts factions. Even legacies left behind by Nascent Soul Great Beings stood no chance against the might of the Corpse Demon Sect unless those legacies were protected by a Nascent Soul Great Being.

The peak period of the Corpse Demon Sect was so awe-inspiring that it changed the very fabric of conversations around them. Yet, such a splendid and magnificent sect was razed to the ground overnight and vanished. Yes, utterly vanished. Not a trace remained. Their famed three hundred Golden Core cultivators all perished silently. The cause? A Nascent Soul Great Being had taken action.

One can't help but wonder, how did the Corpse Demon Sect offend such a formidable Nascent Soul Great Being?

As Lin Fei descended into Corpse Demon Mountain, he noticed many cultivators inside. There were Martial Saints and Foundation Establishment cultivators. Most were Foundation Establishment cultivators, but there were also Golden Core cultivators and Martial Sovereigns. They seemed to be practicing with the Yin Qi found inside the mountain.

"The Yin Evil Qi here is indeed dense," Lin Fei observed. He felt the cold, malicious Yin Evil Qi attempting to corrode his body continuously. However, Lin Fei's body could resist this corrosion. He wasn't truly here to cultivate personally. He just wanted to provide an ideal environment for his Black Wind Prison to cultivate. Thus, Lin Fei found a spot and sat down in meditation.

"Your Divine Ability, Black Wind Prison, is elated in this dense Yin Evil Qi, improving its cultivation progress by 1%."

A system voice echoed in his mind after Lin Fei had been in the mountain for a short while. The progress of his Black Wind Prison had indeed increased. Though it was only by 1%, Lin Fei had spent just a short time here.

After spending an entire day, the cultivation progress of his Black Wind Prison increased by a total of 10%. Lin Fei realized that this place offered impressive benefits for his skill. Even without the Yin Evil Wind, the mere presence of Yin Evil Qi was greatly beneficial to the Black Wind Prison. Its rapid cultivation progress was also due to the "effort" put in by the Black Wind Prison itself.

Lin Fei stayed in the Corpse Demon Mountain. One day, two days, three days... With time, the progress of his Black Wind Prison kept accelerating - 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%...

Merely ten days later, Lin Fei felt a tremor throughout his body. Then, behind him, a massive Life Wheel materialized. On the Life Wheel, the layer symbolizing the Black Wind Prison shone brightly. The light expanded suddenly, radiating an intense aura.

Lin Fei's Life Wheel exuded a terrifying pressure, spreading in all directions.

Immediately, many Martial Saints and Foundation Establishment True Persons within the Corpse Demon Mountain felt oppressed by Lin Fei's Life Wheel's might. Their faces displayed shock and awe.
