Chapter 287 Intrusion
Before even approaching the palace gate, Zhang Lingyu had already summoned most of the remaining Yin Corpses. Upon closer inspection, there were more than thirty of them, two of which were Foundation Establishment cultivators in life.
"That damned brat, where did he get so many corpses?!"
Hiding among the corpses, Yue Yi's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. While desperately maneuvering the puppets with the Spirit Puppet Transformation Box to defend against the corpse poison attacking him, he shouted, "Elder Puppet, we mustn't let him leave!"
"Don't worry, I know what's important."
The sound of the magical artifact echoed in the hall, and just as it had promised, the restrictions on the hall doors shone even brighter, clearly having been strengthened considerably.
After doing all this, Yue Yi looked at the figure struggling to break the barrier with a sense of relief.
"Even the five of you working together couldn't break the seal and escape. How much destructive power can you corpses, who were merely at the Qi Refining stage in life, possibly have? In the end, won't you all be at my mercy?"
"Boom!"
As one corpse after another self-destructed, a thick, foul-smelling, pale green smoke immediately filled the hall—this was the so-called corpse poison.
If an ordinary person takes a single breath, they will die instantly. Cultivators are not much better off. If it invades their limbs and bones, it will take two or three years to remove. If it is left for too long, it will leave sequelae.
Zhang Lingyu was on the verge of exploding. The protective spiritual shield in front of her made a piercing "sizzling" sound when it touched the corpse poison. After a few breaths, it actually showed some signs of dissolving.
He disregarded defense and threw various talismans and magical artifacts into the main hall. At the same time, he secretly activated the Burning Yuan Heart Light and the Azure Lotus Sword Formation. Only these two powerful moves could break the restrictions on the door.
This will take some time, but fortunately, the seven puppets were destroyed in the self-destruction of the Yin Corpse, and the hall is full of corpse poison, so Yue Yi dares not show himself to stop it at this time.
A dozen or so breaths later, he suddenly flung out a golden light from his sleeve, which, together with the thunder above his head, struck the barrier.
Due to the impact of the self-destruction of the Yin Corpse, the spiritual light on the palace gate became sluggish and dimmed considerably, making the situation even worse.
"Buzz..."
The barrier emitted a mournful cry of despair, and the pale golden runes that had been barely maintained on its surface were now in complete chaos, their spiritual light flickering erratically, and their radiance rapidly diminishing at a visible speed.
The protective array within the barrier had clearly suffered a severe blow and was beginning to show signs of gradual collapse and disintegration. Fine cracks began to spread deep within the light barrier, as if it would shatter completely at any moment.
Seeing this, Zhang Lingyu was overjoyed. How could he let go of this fleeting opportunity?
Without hesitation, he waved his hand again, throwing out several magical artifacts of the perfect grade from his storage bag, which he had prepared beforehand and were suitable for breaking the seal.
The magical artifact shone brightly, clearly pushed to its limit, and crashed down like a meteor into the already crumbling palace gate's protective barrier.
"Boom!"
More intense and chaotic explosions resounded one after another on the already shattered barrier, and under the continued onslaught, the barrier could no longer hold on.
"Snap!"
The pale golden light curtain above the palace gate collapsed and shattered in an instant, turning into countless tiny specks of light that scattered and then vanished completely, leaving no trace behind.
The injunction has been broken!
Because he had exhausted his magical power in order to break the seal, Zhang Lingyu had no choice but to use the Blood Burning Secret Technique to rush out. However, as soon as he got out, he found that the wide road in front of him had suddenly turned into a dead end.
Without a doubt, it must be the Spirit Puppet Transformation Box causing this trouble.
Just as he was about to break through the wall and leave, a roar suddenly came from behind him.
"Zhang Lingyu, the entire Spirit Puppet Sect ruins are under Elder Puppet's control. So what if you escape outside? You'll still have to be teleported back obediently."
He turned his head and saw Yue Yi's skeleton being dragged by a tattered puppet as it ran through the corpse poison, rushing towards him at top speed.
"They're like a persistent ghost!"
Zhang Lingyu cursed under his breath and summoned all the remaining Yin Corpses to attack the opponent. As the distance between them continued to shrink, he detonated them at the precise moment.
The pale green corpse poison filled the surrounding area, and its concentration was beyond his current ability to resist.
As you can see, a few green spots have appeared on both the arms and cheeks, which is a sign of infection with corpse poison.
He haphazardly stuffed a few antidote pills into his mouth, but before he could make a further move, a small opening appeared in the dense corpse poison, and a figure darted out from it.
Upon closer inspection, it was Yue Yi's soul, but its condition was far worse than before, with a few traces of light green stained on its originally white body.
"You old beast, you're truly ruthless, daring to travel through time in the form of a soul to chase after me!"
"Without ruthlessness, one cannot achieve the Great Dao. The opportunity to seize another's body comes only once; how could I, an old man, give it up!"
Yue Yi endured the pain as he passed through the corpse poison. Looking at Zhang Lingyu, who was somewhat dazed not far away, he suddenly accelerated and disappeared into the latter's brow.

"hiss!"
Zhang Lingyu let out a miserable scream. Although his divine sense had reached the early stage of the Golden Core realm, his physical body was still at the Foundation Establishment stage.
After a powerful divine soul invaded the sea of consciousness, tiny cracks immediately appeared in the sea of consciousness, clearly unable to withstand such a huge divine soul power, as if it might crack at any moment.
To eliminate them, one of them must be eliminated.
Now, Yue Yi, who had invaded his sea of consciousness, was frantically tearing at his soul, not only trying to expel it but also wanting to devour it directly so that he could advance further.
"Old man, you think you can possess me so easily?"
The next moment, he unleashed his full power to unleash his divine sense, launching a counterattack against Yue Yi's soul. The latter screamed within his sea of consciousness, "You...how can your divine sense power reach the early Golden Core stage?!"
No wonder Yue Yi couldn't believe it. He had previously discovered that Zhang Lingyu's spiritual sense was only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. It turned out that their spiritual sense levels had been on the same level from beginning to end. The latter deliberately suppressed the intensity of his spiritual sense, which was not easy to detect.
"Bitter!" 』
If he had discovered it earlier, he certainly wouldn't have tried to possess Zhang Lingyu's body, but instead would have tried to possess Tang Wei's body. Once he successfully possessed her body, he would have devoured her soul, which would have further increased his speed of recovery.
But now Tang Wei's soul has been completely devoured by him, and his physical body has been shattered into pieces by the Yin Corpse. It's no use saying anything now.
Furthermore, now that we're inside, there's no reason for them to let us out.
So at this moment, it's either you or me who dies.
"No, I still have a chance. This kid's spiritual sense is only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, while I have devoured so many souls and am already close to the middle stage. I still have some advantages."
Within their sea of consciousness, their souls continued to entangle and tear at each other, their minds devoid of any other thoughts.
The only way to survive is to fight desperately!
