The Sound of the Mind and Spirit

Qin Yan tensed up. Some ghosts don't attack on their own; they require certain actions or behaviors to be triggered.

The three of them stood on the boat like statues.

Everyone could feel a chill emanating from the surroundings; the thing that boarded the ship was extremely terrifying.

Even if it's not as large as the behemoth we encountered before, it's not much weaker.

Click!

Thump!

The sound of something falling over rang out abruptly, and the ship swayed slightly at that moment.

A pungent smell of blood filled their nostrils, causing their hearts to skip a beat!

The fortune teller is dead!

Call!

Qin Yan felt a cool breath on his neck; he could feel that thing was very, very close to him.

A moment later, he could sense that the thing seemed to have moved to the side of the corpse carrier!

This situation also gave the corpse carrier a real fright!

I could see the black figure out of the corner of my eye, but it was a blurry mess and I couldn't make out its face.

It's impossible to determine exactly what this is.

The air seemed to freeze at that moment!

How much time has passed?

They heard a rustling sound, followed by the slight rocking of the boat and the sound of ripples on the water!

The thick fog gradually dissipated, and we sailed downstream!

After a long while, Qin Yan and the other man were panting heavily, their eyes filled with fear.

"That was close, I almost died."

Qin Yan looked shaken!

The corpse carrier trembled slightly, stiffly turning his head to see only a pool of blood left on the boat.

The fortune teller died quietly.

His eyes dimmed slightly. The two had known each other for half their lives, and he never imagined that the other would end up like this.

"Hehe...!"

The corpse carrier smiled bitterly, "When you get old, you don't know many people left."

"Let's think about what we should do now!"

Qin Yan said in a low voice, "The sorceress is dead, and nobody knows that Daoist priest who could Yin-Walking!"

He truly witnessed the eeriness and terror of the Underworld this time.

"Let's try our luck in Mian County first; maybe we'll run into them."

The corpse carrier said hoarsely, "If that doesn't work, we only have two places to go next."

First, there's Qinghe Town, a place you should be very familiar with. Immortals existed there in ancient times, and that's where I got my pottery jar.

Moreover, there is a passage in the mass grave there; breaking the seal there will allow you to leave.

The second destination is Youshan Prefecture, which is the center of the entire prefecture.

There are more people who can Yin-Walking.

However, I prefer to go to Qinghe Town, where many enlightened masters have died over the long years.

Their magical artifacts can also be lost, and that area is quite dangerous.

The corpse carrier lit his pipe and took a deep drag.

They didn't have many options left.

Mian County!

On the streets at night, wandering souls drift aimlessly.

They also encountered some recently deceased souls who entered the Underworld.

Their faces were filled with terror as they tried to find someone on the street, but no one could see them.

This scene made Qin Yan somewhat suspicious.

"Old man, why are there living people on the street?"

No, we are still in two different worlds!

The corpse carrier whispered, "The Underworld and the Yang Realm are like opposites; they occasionally interact, and reality and illusion overlap."

It's true that people in the Underworld can't see people in the Yang Realm, and people in the Yang Realm can't see people in the Underworld!

This should be considered a point of interaction.

This is why sometimes people see strange things.

The dead appeared before my eyes.

Although it was only for a fleeting moment, it was captured by someone.

Don't even think about using this method to break through the barrier between the Yin and Yang realms; with our strength, it's simply impossible."

Qin Yan remained silent, but soon he looked into the distance with a surprised expression.

An elderly figure carrying Soul-Suppressing Gong walked through the quiet street.

"That old bastard surnamed Ma!"

The corpse carrier noticed the man, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

In the real world, Ma Daren suddenly stopped and looked around.

"Could it be that the old master is mistaken?"

Just now, he sensed someone watching him, but after a careful look, he realized that there was no one around.

"It seems I'm getting old; even my senses aren't what they used to be."

Ma Daren couldn't help but sigh, "Looks like I'm really getting old!"

Qin Yan watched as their bodies intertwined, "Uncle Ma!"

A whisper!

Ma Daren whirled around. "Who?"

Qin Yan and the corpse carrier exchanged a surprised glance.

"You can actually talk to people in the real world, Brother Qin, try again."

Qin Yan nodded, focusing his attention. "Uncle Ma!"

"Qin Yan?"

Ma Daren's expression changed slightly. He felt that the voice was extremely familiar and couldn't help but ask.

"It's me, Uncle Ma! I'm in the Underworld now...!"

"What!"

With a loud clang, the Soul-Suppressing Gong in Ma Daren's hand fell directly to the ground.

With a sorrowful expression, he said, "Oh dear, what a tragedy! You died so young!"

Qin Yan's face darkened.

"I didn't die, I've fallen into the Underworld. Could you please find Yin-Walking medium?"

"What? You're still alive?"

Ma Daren, who had been wearing a long face, looked surprised.

"Then wouldn't you be in great danger!"

A-Yan, don't worry, Uncle will go find someone to rescue you right away.

"Thanks...!"

Before Qin Yan could finish speaking, the two overlapping worlds instantly separated, returning to that dark and decaying world!

"What a stroke of good fortune!"

The corpse carrier beamed with delight. "I never imagined your mental power was so strong, enough to influence reality."

"What does this mean?!"

"The Mind-Spirit Power represents the Way of the Mind, which can only be achieved by those with exceptionally strong souls."

The Way of the Mind can transform the abstract into the concrete; it is one of the most incredible powers of our time.

Brother Qin, you're truly extraordinary.

The corpse carrier gave Qin Yan a deep look. "If you join the Yinluo Way, I guarantee you can become the future Dao Master."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yan looked at the other party with a wary expression. "Hehe, then forget it."

"I'm doing just fine in the Demon-Suppressing Bureau, I have no interest in being a rat in the Yinluo Way."

He always felt that the old man's words had a hidden meaning.

The two waited quietly in Mian County, during which time many Yin Soul gathered around them.

They looked at the two people with curious eyes.

The corpse carrier, being half-human and half-corpse, was seen as one of their own by these Yin Soul.

Qin Yan was like a stone, completely invisible!

This bizarre scene amazed even the corpse carrier, who was quite surprised.

If he didn't look with his naked eye, he wouldn't even be able to detect the other person's presence.

Intentionally or unintentionally ignoring the other person's existence.

In his eyes, Qin Yan seemed incredibly strange. He knew there was such a person by his side, but he would often subconsciously forget about him.

"It seems I really am getting old; my memory is not what it used to be."

The corpse carrier lamented the ruthlessness of time.
