Looking at these four bodies, Lin Yi shook his head and sighed. The Xuan Yin Sect was really a cancer in the Cultivation World, highlighting also the dangers of the Secret Realm.
If he were just an ordinary Qi Refining Cultivator, he might not have escaped the fate of being possessed by evil spirits when he entered the Wood Element Area.
Other sects kill people either for benefit or for revenge.
But the Xuan Yin Sect kills whimsically, just to satisfy their twisted desires.
On the body of the Sky Sword Sect’s Cultivator, there were signs of a Supreme-grade Evil-repelling Talisman, most likely used by a fellow disciple from the Liu Yun Sect, who used the talisman he made to kill the evil spirit possessing the Sky Sword Sect’s cultivator.
Based on this strong presence, they must have used quite a few talismans for a sure kill. Although wasteful, it’s the safest approach.
Lin Yi took out a Rebirth Charm from his Storage Bag, ready to perform rites and bury these corpses.
Because if you die in the Secret Realm, your body cannot be teleported out when the trial ends, and it cannot be brought out by other cultivators. It can only return to dust in the Secret Realm, dust to dust, earth to earth.
Otherwise, the Golden Core masters of various sects waiting outside could infer from traces on the body which Sect had struck the blow.
Under the influence of the rebirth charm, a white light shone on the four bodies, and a faint resentment could be seen melting away.
The charm he used was made after Foundation Establishment, using the light golden spiritual power in his dantian. It could perform rites for multiple people at once, and its effect was very powerful.
On the body of the Sky Sword Sect’s cultivator, quite a lot of black qi emerged and was continuously dispersed by the Rebirth Charm, finally forming a faint transparent phantom that bowed to Lin Yi.
After performing the rites, Lin Yi only received very few Virtue Points, indicating that these four righteous cultivators hadn’t committed any serious offenses.
He buried these four bodies in a nearby forested area. In the Water Element Area, unlike the ocean-like environment, there are also land and trees, just that the presence of Water Element constitutes more than half the area.
According to the Secret Realm Manual, there are practically rivers, waterfalls, and lakes everywhere in the Water Element Area. The water resources are extremely plentiful, thus the Medicine Gardens here are virtually all built over water. Most of the plants grown are Water-born Spiritual Grass.
Wood is the beginning of the five elements, Water the source of life. The reason plants grow so luxuriantly in the Wood Element Area is not only due to the abundance of Wood Element Soul Power, but it’s also inseparable from its adjacency to the Water Element Area.
The main rivers of the Wood Element Area are extended from the rivers of the Water Element Area, and with the assistance of the wind, some of the Water Element diffuses, which facilitates wood growth.
The land in the Water Element Area is very damp. So, the number of trees growing differs greatly from those in the Wood Element Area, most of the area is swamp-like. If not careful, you could plunge deep into the mud.
Lin Yi pondered for a moment. Judging by the time these bodies died, it had been about a day. It was likely that only when they believed there was no possibility of entering the cave mansion did the Xuan Yin Sect’s cultivator strike.
Other cultivators here must have gone in pursuit of the Xuan Yin Sect’s people.
However, he saw one of the bodies had a fatal wound inflicted by a Path of Demonic Cultivators and there was no Yin Qi inside, just a current of Blood Demonic Energy, possibly from the Blood Demonic Sect’s cultivator.
But would the Blood Demonic Sect collaborate with the Xuan Yin Sect? It seemed there were some conflicts between the two sects—they could be said to coexist insincerely.
If there were no combined forces, it would mean another treacherous contestant from the Xuan Yin Sect was assigned to the Water Element Area, turning a cultivator from the Blood Demonic Sect into a Puppet of Evil Spirits.
Just then, Lin Yi saw a spark of fire blossoming in the distant sky. A green cloud, which was their Liu Yun Sect’s help signal.
Judging by the direction, it should be close to the Jade Lake Herb Garden in the Water Element Area. This garden is in the depths of the Water Element Area, located in a lake, where many Water-born Spiritual Grass grow.
Because the lake water is as clear as jade, it is called Jade Lake by disciples of all sects who have been here.
Since a fellow sect person from the Liu Yun Sect was in trouble, he naturally couldn’t ignore it, and besides, his current fictitious identity was something he didn’t fear others discovering.
Lin Yi prepared briefly, grabbed a Teleportation Mantra, and chose a Teleportation Array near Jade Lake Herb Garden. As the surrounding environment changed, he quickly came around from the dizziness of the teleportation, and he was already near Jade Lake Herb Garden.
He had a look, there were no people around the herb garden, just this beautiful lake, like jade, where many precious Water-born Spiritual Grass grow.
Some of these spiritual grass were key ingredients for Lifespan Extension Pills, and some very valuable spiritual grasses were ingredients for Healing Pills.
Previously, he acquired the Water-Wood Dual Life Spiritual Grass that could make up for deficiencies from the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden in the Wood Element Area. After growing in the Water Element Area, it was then transferred to the Wood Element Area for further growth.
The integration of both the Water and Wood Element Soul Power was what would help a cultivator restore their deficiencies and allow them to resume their journey on the path of cultivation..
