Exorcising Evil Sword Formation

Song Wen crashed onto the platform, and saw two Wraith attacking him.

He relied on the Black Hole in his Sea of Consciousness to block the shrieks of the Wraith.

Then, he raised his hand and unleashed two Palm Thunder.

The overwhelming power of thunder is extremely effective against Wraith.

After the Palm Thunder struck the two Wraith, the Wraith froze for a moment.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Song Wen suddenly exerted force with his feet, his body darting sideways and leaping into the Cave.

The two Wraith spirits emitted a dense black aura, gradually dispelling the lightning, but their souls also became slightly more ethereal as a result.

After breaking free from the lightning's restraints, the two Wraith pursued Song Wen closely, together disappearing into a deep Cave.

A moment later, Song Wen arrived at the main hall deep inside the Cave. When he saw the familiar layout of the Cave, a look of surprise flashed across his face.

Suddenly, six Wraith, all of them third-tier, burst forth from every corner of the hall without warning.

The moment they spotted Song Wen, they opened their gaping maws and let out a series of shrill screams.

The two Wraith behind them had also caught up to a short distance behind Song Wen.

The simultaneous shrieks of the eight third-tier Wraith caused him a splitting headache and made him extremely uncomfortable.

However, the Sea of Consciousness Black Hole acted as a solid barrier, protecting his Sea of Consciousness and preventing the shrieks of these Wraith from causing him any real harm.

Song Wen used his Thunder Escape Technique, his body crackling with lightning, and circled around the stone wall of the hall.

Within the Corpse Dissection Cave of the Corpse Demon Sect, there is a temporary cave abode for the steward.

Given the striking similarity of this underground hall, it's highly likely that there are also temporary cave abode here.

As long as Song Wen enters the temporary cave abode, he can avoid being attacked from both sides.

He had gone less than half a mile when he indeed discovered a deep cave entrance.

Song Wen didn't have time to think and slipped inside.

At the same time, a large amount of lightning surged from his body, landing at the cave entrance and temporarily sealing it off.

To Song Wen's surprise, this place was not a temporary cave abode, but a passageway.

After walking for about a mile through the passage, he arrived at another underground hall.

He used the <Darkness-Breaking Technique> to quickly survey the hall, discovering that it was very small, only about a mile in circumference.

In the center of the hall stood an inverted Bronze Furnace, several meters tall.

The Bronze Furnace censer has a simple and ancient shape and is engraved with dense runes.

Between these runes, there was a layer of verdigris, mottled and uneven.

The Bronze Furnace appears to have been pushed over, with obvious damage to the part of the censer that was in contact with the ground.

The furnace lid also fell to a place more than ten feet away.

"This seems to be the Blood Refining Cave? And someone has already gotten there first," Song Wen guessed to himself.

The Corpse Dissection Cave of the Corpse Demon Sect belongs to the Blood Refining Hall. The blood collected in the Corpse Dissection Cave is taken to the Blood Refining Cave to refine Essence Blood.

However, in the Corpse Demon Sect, the Corpse Dissection Cave and the Blood Refining Cave are separate, but here, the two are connected.

The Xing Family's Nascent Soul Cultivator have entered this secret realm several times, so they must have already explored this Cave.

This bronze Bronze Furnace may have originally been an extraordinary object, but time has taken its toll, and its spiritual essence has long since been lost.

Therefore, the Xing Family cultivators abandoned it and did not take it with them.

The fact that there were no Wraith in the Blood Refining Cave reassured Song Wen somewhat.

At this moment, a commotion came from behind Song Wen. The Wraith broke through the blockade of lightning and entered the passage, heading towards the Blood Refining Cave.

Song Wen opened his mouth and spat out a silver firebird.

A large amount of platinum-gold flames spewed from the firebird's mouth, instantly sealing off the passage completely.

The Jade Radiance Flame is extremely yang. Although it is not as effective as Thunder Method in suppressing ghosts, its strength lies in its ability to burn continuously for a long time, slowing down the pace of Wraith entering the Blood Refining Cave.

Then, Song Wen unleashed the Jade Pivot Divine Thunder once more.

A violent bolt of lightning erupted in the narrow passage, like the roar of a god, its flashes illuminating the entire passage.

Amidst the dazzling lightning, the ghostly mist melted away as quickly as snow meeting the spring sun.

Under the majestic power of Heaven, all evil has nowhere to hide.

The Wraith seemed to sense a primal fear that penetrated their very souls; they quickly retreated and disappeared into the passageway.

Having temporarily scared away the Wraith, Song Wen breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He channeled his Law Power and gestured towards the Bronze Furnace.

The Bronze Furnace soared into the air and flew towards Song Wen. Just as it reached mid-air, the Bronze Furnace suddenly disintegrated, turning into dozens of fragments of various sizes, which scattered all over the ground.

This left Song Wen, who had been hoping to find a bargain, speechless.

Things that have been abandoned are unlikely to be valuable treasures.

Song Wen leaped up and arrived at the center of the hall, where the Bronze Furnace had originally been placed.

This is a deep pit, several meters deep, just large enough to place the Bronze Furnace inside.

Song Wen scanned the deep pit with his Divine Sense, but it was empty.

He shook his head, turned and left, searching along the cave wall, but found nothing.

There were no treasures or exits in this Blood Refining Cave, and he was trapped inside.

Suddenly, noises came from the passage again. The thunderous power had dissipated, and the Wraith began to stir again, entering the passage once more.

Song Wen looked toward the passageway, his brows furrowed and his expression grave.

There were too many Wraith; he couldn't possibly withstand them all on his own.

Furthermore, he needed these Wraith to fend off the pursuers outside.

Song Wen knew nothing about the situation outside the cave, and he had to prepare for the worst—facing the pursuit of Xing Yixuan and Jing Lie at the same time.

"If I can master the second level of the <Concentrated Soul-Concentrating Spike>, and use it to attack their Sea of Consciousness, I don't need to seriously injure them. As long as I can temporarily restrict their spellcasting, and add the Blood Escape Technique and the Life-Substitution Technique, I might be able to escape from them."

Song Wen thought to himself.

He obtained Xing Liren's storage ring, which contained the Heavenly Spirit Pill, thus fulfilling the cultivation requirements for the second level of the <Soul-Concentrating Spike> technique.

But these Wraith were watching him intently, giving him no chance to cultivate in peace.

While Thunder Method is powerful, with unparalleled instantaneous bursts of power, it is difficult to sustain and cannot continuously resist the invasion of Wraith.

Even with the Law Power within Song Wen's body, it was impossible to continuously unleash Thunder Method; Law Power would eventually be exhausted.

"If we can maintain the Thunder Method's sustained output, we can break through our current predicament."

At this thought, Song Wen's eyes suddenly lit up.

The Exorcising Evil Sword Formation!

If this sword formation can be used to seal the passage, it will prevent Wraith from disturbing us.

With a thought, nine high-grade Spirit Artifact flying swords appeared in front of Song Wen.

Based on the idea that having more skills is never a bad thing, Song Wen also practiced this sword formation in his spare time. Although he did not reach the level of mastery, he could still perform it with difficulty.

Nine flying swords flew out in succession and were arranged in the passageway in the form of a sword formation.

"Jade Pivot Divine Thunder!"

With a soft sigh from Song Wen.

Each of the nine flying swords shot out a bolt of lightning.

Lightning flashed, carrying immense divine power, and continuously traversed the nine flying swords, forming a dense net of lightning.

From a distance, it looked as if a Lightning Sphere had appeared in the passage, completely sealing it off.

Having been deterred by the previous two Jade Pivot Divine Thunder, the Wraith were like frightened birds, daring not to cross the line even a step when faced with the Lightning Sphere formed by the sword formation.

This made things much easier for Song Wen, as he didn't need to expend too much of his Law Power and mental energy to maintain the operation of the sword formation.
