Ye Yu, Come Back and Help Me

As Ye Xuan finished speaking, many people's expressions turned grim.

Just as Ye Xuan had said, if he didn't want it, he could have given it to others. What was the meaning of destroying it without a second word?

Ye Xuan watched the increasingly hostile gazes around him, his eyes flashing with sharp light.

Although Ye Yu's direct destruction of the Clear Heart Pill surprised him, his objective had been achieved, so there was no difference.

Ye Yu glanced indifferently at Ye Qingshuang. He flipped his palm, and a porcelain bottle appeared in his hand. As he opened it, a rich pill fragrance immediately wafted out.

Anyone with some knowledge of pills knew that for a pill to emit such a fragrance, it had to be at least a fourth-grade pill.

And fourth-grade pills were already extremely precious. For example, the Breakthrough Pill that Feng Xian had given to Liu Ruyan earlier cost hundreds of thousands of spirit stones each.

"This pill fragrance is... a Miasma Breaking Pill?!" someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Ye Qingshuang's expression darkened. Having followed Cangyun for many years, she could naturally smell that it was indeed the fragrance of a Miasma Breaking Pill.

Immediately, the hostility in those people's eyes intensified. They had no way to enter now.

Not only had Ye Yu destroyed the Clear Heart Pill, but he had now produced a Miasma Breaking Pill. How could they accept this?

Although the first person to enter the secret realm would face more danger, the opportunities they gained would also be the greatest.

Sensing everyone's gazes, Ye Yu glanced at Zi Yun standing in the distance, smiled, and tossed a Miasma Breaking Pill over. "Let's make a deal. I'll give you this Miasma Breaking Pill, and you help me solve my troubles, how about it?"

Zi Yun took the Miasma Breaking Pill, her gaze calmly sweeping over the crowd below, and then she nodded calmly.

Seeing Zi Yun nod, the expressions of the people from those factions changed slightly. They could still hinder Ye Yu and his companions, but facing this female demon, they decided against it.

It wasn't that a combined force of so many people couldn't defeat Zi Yun, but rather that no one was willing to be the first to step forward.

Other than watching Ye Yu and his companions take the Miasma Breaking Pills and enter the Blood Origin Miasma, they had no other recourse. They could only send people back to retrieve pills.

After entering the miasma, and having consumed the Miasma Breaking Pills, Ye Yu and his companions went straight to the passage. After exchanging glances, they stepped into it together.

The moment he stepped into the spatial passage, Ye Yu felt a flash of white before his eyes, followed by a force that forcibly separated him from Qin Ruoxian.

Ye Yu's expression immediately changed. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a mountainous area, surrounded by a desolate aura.

The air was filled with a decaying smell, mixed with a faint scent of blood. Looking up, he saw a tall palace atop the mountain.

However, Qin Ruoxian, whose hand he had been holding tightly just before, had now vanished.

Situ Guang and Zi Yun also encountered a strange situation. They were immediately repelled by a force upon entering the spatial passage, and further approach became impossible.

It wasn't just him; all the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators who arrived later encountered the same problem. It was as if the spatial passage had some kind of restriction, preventing Nascent Soul Stage cultivators from entering.

Instantly, the expressions of all the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators turned grim. The danger of this secret realm might be beyond their imagination.

Without exception, everyone took out their sound transmission jade talismans and sent the news back.

The Qingyunlei Three States erupted.

This was because the last time such a situation occurred, there had been a super expert in the Void Refining stage who had passed away within the secret realm!

If this one also had something similar, then the old monsters in the Spirit Transformation stage from the three states who had been in seclusion would surely flock here.

Zi Yun stood before the passage, frowning. Since she couldn't enter, she wouldn't. She then said to Situ Guang beside her, "If he comes out alive, remember to notify me."

With that, Zi Yun transformed into a stream of light and left the area.

Unlike the outside world, it was extremely quiet around Ye Yu, and the sense of unease in his heart grew stronger.

The next moment, strange sounds emerged from beneath the surrounding rubble, as if something was crawling underneath.

Immediately, a blood-stained arm stretched out from below, followed by bloody corpses crawling out one by one. Their eyes were a dim yellow, and they lunged directly at Ye Yu.

At the same time, throughout the entire secret realm, screams began to erupt one after another.

Ye Yu flipped his palm, and the Purple Firmament Sword appeared in his hand. He looked at the dense mass of bloody corpses before him and unleashed a sword strike.

Instantly, sword energy surged, and the surrounding bloody corpses were cut into pieces.

Ye Yu stepped forward, looking at the remains of the bloody corpses, his expression becoming extremely grim. He took a deep breath and exclaimed, "Could it be that the Nine Nether Blood Spring exists within this secret realm?!"

Ye Yu was all too familiar with these bloody corpses. Cultivators who were corrupted by the Nine Nether Blood Qi would turn into this ghastly state after a period of time—neither human nor ghost, only knowing how to kill!

Furthermore, their physical strength far surpassed that of ordinary Golden Core Stage cultivators, and even ordinary Nascent Soul Stage cultivators were not their match in terms of physical defense.

Ye Yu was able to act so decisively and swiftly entirely due to the sharpness of the Purple Firmament Sword.

"Ye Yu?!" Ye Qingshuang's voice rang out.

Ye Yu turned his head and saw that Ye Qingshuang had appeared beside him at some point. From her appearance, she should have just entered.

Soon, Ye Qingshuang discovered the bloody corpses on the ground, and her face immediately turned pale. As an alchemist, she had never experienced such a scene.

"You killed all these people? When did you become so bloodthirsty? Can't you be a little kinder, like Xiao Xuan?" Ye Qingshuang asked, suppressing her discomfort.

Ye Yu looked down at the ground. He could sense that there was still residual Nine Nether Blood Qi underground, likely from other bloody corpses.

"I'm asking you!" Seeing that Ye Yu was ignoring her, Ye Qingshuang gritted her teeth.

"You can talk to them yourself," Ye Yu said indifferently, then sensed the direction of the Autumn Water Sword and pursued it.

Seeing this, Ye Qingshuang was about to follow, but a hand suddenly reached out from under her feet and grabbed her ankle.

Ye Qingshuang was startled and quickly summoned her sword, channeling her spiritual energy. After a great deal of effort, she managed to cut it off. Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, she saw countless grotesque bloody corpses continuously emerging from underground.

Ye Qingshuang's expression immediately changed, and she hurriedly ascended into the air. However, the bloody corpses surprisingly followed her.

"What are these abominations?!" Ye Qingshuang cried out in alarm and quickly activated the spiritual energy within her body, engaging in a struggle with the group of bloody corpses.

However, she was an alchemist, and her combat prowess was not strong to begin with. Soon, she sustained several wounds and looked at Ye Yu's receding figure.

"Ye Yu, come back and help me!"
