Shuyunzi

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

The little black cat has completely mastered the breathing technique, and his growth rate far exceeds that of others.

The aura emanating from his body grew increasingly powerful.

As the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi revives, the hidden bloodlines within the birds and beasts of the world are also being awakened.

Xiaoxuan's bloodline is excellent!

Qin Yan also fed the other party some Ganoderma lucidum wine and century-old ginseng wine!

The growth rate has accelerated even further.

In terms of speed alone, he has probably surpassed the vast majority of the Qi Origin Realm experts!

Like a ghost in the forest, it is difficult to find its tracks.

During this time, Qin Yan went to the cave where the ghost was hiding!

Even from a distance of over a hundred meters, Qin Yan could sense the Yin-Sha Qi contained within.

"Qi-Reading Technique!"

Qin Yan looked again and saw that the cave was filled with yin energy, and a dark red, intertwined Yin Soul seemed to have also noticed his presence.

"This guy has probably surpassed even Fierce Ghost and become a Ghost Spirit Level Yin Soul!"

I took a deep look.

Qin Yan immediately realized that the Evil Spirit before him was quite powerful!

To deal with it, one would need at least a high-level Qi Origin Realm or even a Xiantian Realm expert from either Buddhism or Daoism.

Logically speaking, a ghost of this level should be able to move freely, so why is it cowering in this cave?

If he were to escape the mountains, Qinghe Town would be thrown into chaos.

In the blink of an eye!

The ghostly creature in the cave had already transformed into a semi-solid form!

He was a young Daoist priest.

Upon seeing Qin Yan, he bowed and clasped his hands in greeting. "Since you've come, why don't you come in and talk?"

Are you afraid?

Upon hearing this, Qin Yan raised an eyebrow, chuckled, and strode towards the cave.

Upon seeing this, the young Daoist priest's eyes flashed with surprise; he hadn't expected the other party to actually dare to enter the cave.

The cave wasn't large, but it was remarkably clean.

Not far away, there was a corpse sitting cross-legged, dressed in a Daoist robe, who had probably been dead for several decades.

"Master, the deceased is gone. Why do they still cling to the mortal world and refuse to leave?"

Qin Yan's eyes remained calm.

"I am Shuyunzi, a disciple of Azure Sun Abbey. Greetings, young brother."

Shuyunzi's face was bitter. "I have spent more than fifty years in this cave, and with such attachment in my heart, how can I leave!"

Azure Sun Abbey!

Qin Yan carefully examined the Ghost Spirit before him. "Do you know Qingyunzi?"

"Qingyunzi!"

Shuyunzi was taken aback upon hearing this, then asked with a hint of anticipation, "My junior brother is probably the abbot of Azure Sun Abbey by now!"

"Not bad!" Qin Yan nodded slightly.

A flicker of reminiscence crossed Shuyunzi's eyes, "That boy was only a teenager back then. Our parting truly felt like a matter of life and death!"

"Back then, I wonder what happened back then?"

Speaking of this, Shuyunzi's expression darkened, filled with regret. "Back then, the emperor sent Mojin Xiaowei to Qinghe Town to search for a chance to become immortals."

Years ago, an ancient tomb was excavated and discovered to be the burial ground of ancient cultivators!

As she spoke, she gave Qin Yan a deep look. "This matter was unexpectedly exposed."

"I was overcome by greed and wanted to seize this opportunity, but I never imagined I would lose my life."

Upon hearing this!

Qin Yan was immediately shocked. "We've really found the graveyard of cultivators."

"Indeed! Back then, my cultivation had reached the Qi Origin Realm. I was young and impetuous, and wanted to seize it."

Many people participated in that great battle back then. To my shame, I was chasing a woman who had obtained a celestial treasure, but unfortunately, I was no match for her, and my death was entirely my own fault."

Shuyunzi's words were filled with regret.

"Only on my deathbed did I see myself clearly; my momentary greed led to an irreversible consequence."

Every time I think about it, it's too late for regrets.

"I never expected that the other party would have participated in that treasure hunt back then."

And there really are cultivators!

Qin Yan's heart was stirred; the events of that year must have been deliberately concealed.

Many people are unsure whether it's true or false.

The matter is truly perplexing!

What is the connection between the tombs of Immortals and the Mass Grave Mound?

Of course, he wouldn't completely believe the other party's one-sided story. Even though a Ghost Spirit Level evil creature had developed sentience, it couldn't change the fact that it was still an evil creature.

"Although I am no longer in human form, I have never gone out to do evil, and spend my days in seclusion in these mountains and forests cultivating myself."

Shuyunzi bowed respectfully to Qin Yan and pleaded, "I hope you can take my remains back to Azure Sun Abbey so that they may be laid to rest."

"With your abilities, going back shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Qin Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly.

"To my shame, although I have cultivated into Ghost Spirit, I still cannot stray too far from my own remains!"

When I was critically injured and on the verge of death, I used my own bones as a memorial and performed a secret technique to transform into Yin Soul after my death.

However, they cannot stray too far from their own remains, or their souls will be scattered.

Perhaps this is the price of being forced to remain in the mortal world.

Shuyunzi said self-deprecatingly.

Qin Yan didn't rush to answer, but instead asked, "I'm afraid you won't be willing to let go of your obsession even after you go back."

Your presence doesn't exactly make people feel at ease.

Upon hearing this, Shuyunzi was stunned, and her expression gradually darkened.

However, he still answered frankly, "That's right, what we cultivators seek is longevity."

Now I have become Yin Soul, which is a kind of alternative immortality.

Unfortunately, there is no longer a method in this world to confer titles upon Yin God, nor a method to cultivate into Ghost Immortal!

As she spoke, Shuyunzi's expression turned dejected.

"But I'm not willing to give up. I've been trying all these years, but unfortunately I haven't found a way."

I have never committed any acts of killing, and I fear that I may become one of those strange beings!

I just want to become an immortal, whether Human Immortal or Ghost Immortal.

Shuyunzi bowed to Qin Yan again. "This humble Daoist humbly begs young brother to give me a chance."

If I do evil, then you shall destroy me!

As Yin Soul, Shuyunzi was naturally able to sense Qin Yan's immense aura.

It wouldn't be difficult for the other party to kill me!

"I can promise you, I will verify this with Azure Sun Abbey!"

Qin Yan glanced at the other person. "Since that's the case, if you want to go back to Azure Sun Abbey, then I'll take you back."

After all, this is a matter for your Azure Sun Abbey.

I will discuss with Abbot Azure Sun Abbey how to handle you.

Shuyunzi's face lit up with joy, and he quickly clasped his hands in thanks. "Thank you, young brother. May I ask your honorable name?"

"Qin Yan!"

Soon, Qin Yan returned, carrying a burlap sack containing the other party's remains.

Shuyunzi didn't hesitate either, transforming into a wisp of green smoke and flying back to the corpse!

It was only twenty or thirty li from the mountains to Azure Sun Abbey, and Qin Yan took less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

We arrived at a small Daoist temple.

The plaque reads "Azure Sun Abbey"!

"Brother Qin's lightness skill is extraordinary; even experts at the entry level are far inferior to him!"

Shuyunzi transformed into a physical form, first offering a word of praise to Qin Yan, and then examining the Daoist temple before him.

It has changed somewhat since he left, and there are signs of renovation everywhere.

However, the overall outline remains unchanged.

His expression immediately turned sorrowful. "More than fifty years have passed, and I wonder how many of my old friends still recognize me."

Swish!

Several figures shot out from within the Azure Sun Abbey!

"What evil spirit dares to come to my Azure Sun Abbey?"

The three elderly Daoist priests each held a compass in one hand and a peach wood sword in the other.

"Senior brother?"
