Soul travels through the world of immortality

In the endless void, there should have been silence and peace, but in the surrounding area of ​​the closed retrograde passage, a horrifying scene appeared. The bodies of practitioners were scattered there in all directions. Their deaths were so horrible that they made people shudder.

Each corpse was in an extremely distorted posture, as if they had experienced unspeakable pain and fear in the last moments of their lives. Even more terrifying was that the blood of these corpses seemed to have been completely drained in an instant, leaving only dry and pale skin tightly attached to the bones, making the whole scene look as gloomy and terrifying as hell.

Judging from the situation at the scene, it can be inferred that there must be some extremely terrifying and powerful existence hidden in the passage. Perhaps it has unimaginable power and can completely devour the vitality of these practitioners in the blink of an eye. What kind of evil thing is hidden in this seemingly peaceful passage? This mystery is like a thick fog covering this void, making people feel fearful and curious.

When Li Mingyang heard the news, he felt his heart drop as if a huge rock weighing a thousand pounds was pressing on his chest, making it hard for him to breathe. He widened his eyes, shook his head in disbelief, and muttered to himself, "How could this happen? What on earth is going on?"

At this moment, a strong sense of uneasiness surged into his heart. He knew very well that the secrets hidden behind this seemingly ordinary passage were probably far beyond their previous imagination. It might be a huge conspiracy that was intricate and bottomless, and what they knew so far was just the tip of the iceberg.

Li Mingyang stood quietly on the top of Qingyun Mountain for a long time, and he could not let go of the sealed retrograde passage in his heart. He knew very well that the terror there was no accident, but part of a bigger conspiracy. In order to completely uncover the truth, Li Mingyang decided to go to the closed void alone to explore the secrets. He clenched his fists tightly, and his nails were deeply embedded in his palms. He secretly swore that no matter how much it cost, he must get to the bottom of this matter! Only by revealing the true face of the mastermind behind the scenes can we truly protect the tranquility and peace of this continent and prevent innocent people from being threatened and harmed again. Thinking of this, his eyes became extremely firm, and he resolutely embarked on the difficult road of exploring the truth.

The night was like a huge and heavy black cloth, slowly covering the whole world. At this time, Li Mingyang walked into the room lightly and changed into a black nightgown with skillful and agile movements. This nightgown was made of a special material, which not only could perfectly blend into the night, but also had a certain degree of protection. Then, he took out a few magic weapons for self-defense from the treasure box and put them on carefully. After everything was ready, Li Mingyang gently opened the door, looked around, and confirmed that no one noticed, and then quietly left Qingyun Mountain like a ghost.

His figure flashed, and he instantly crossed the void and rushed towards the entrance of the forbidden retrograde passage. This passage was once an important hub connecting two mysterious worlds, but it was sealed for some unknown reason. Today, the entrance of the passage is still full of various complex and dangerous mechanisms and traps. There are extremely sharp spikes, automatically triggered crossbows, and magic circles hidden in the dark. But Li Mingyang was not afraid at all. Relying on his rich experience accumulated from years of hard practice and his extremely keen perception, he cleverly avoided one fatal obstacle after another, as if he was strolling in the garden.

Finally, Li Mingyang successfully entered the passage. As soon as he stepped in, the surroundings immediately became pitch black, as if all the light was swallowed up by the endless darkness. Only a very weak light came faintly from the distant depths, giving people a hazy and mysterious feeling. Li Mingyang took a deep breath to keep himself calm, and then took cautious steps forward. With every step, he felt like he was walking on thin ice, and he dared not be careless.

Suddenly, a gust of extremely cold wind whistled past. The biting cold and strange aura of the wind made Li Mingyang's heart tremble violently. He immediately felt a strong sense of foreboding. So, without hesitation, he quickly activated the internal skills, and a layer of light golden light instantly covered his whole body, forming a solid shield. At the same time, his sharp eyes vigilantly scanned the surrounding darkness.

In a flash, a black shadow shot out from the darkness like lightning, and pounced on Li Mingyang's throat at lightning speed. Faced with such a sudden attack, Li Mingyang was not at all flustered, and his reaction speed was amazing. With a crisp "snap" sound, Li Mingyang instantly slapped out a palm, and collided fiercely with the black shadow. In an instant, a loud "boom" sound broke out in the air, and a strong airflow stirred everywhere. The black shadow was repelled several steps by Li Mingyang's palm before it barely stabilized its body. However, it did not give up the attack. Instead, after a brief pause, it bared its fangs again and pounced on Li Mingyang viciously...

Li Mingyang stared at the front with his eyes wide open, and saw that the shadow gradually became clearer. After seeing it clearly, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, because what appeared in front of him was actually an extremely large void beast. Its sturdy body was completely covered with a thick layer of black scales, which flashed a chilling cold light under the weak moonlight. The most eye-catching thing was its eyes, which were like two burning flames, with scarlet light shining through them, emitting a strong bloodthirsty breath.

"Bloodsucking Void Beast!" Li Mingyang's heart trembled suddenly, and he couldn't help but exclaimed. He had heard of this terrifying Void Beast a long time ago. They suck the blood of practitioners to maintain their lives and improve their own strength, and they are extremely ferocious by nature. Once they are targeted by such a monster, almost no one can escape successfully. Thinking of this, Li Mingyang did not dare to be negligent, and quickly stretched out his hand, and a flying sword with cold light appeared in his hand instantly. Then, he chanted something in his mouth, and continuously injected the spiritual power in his body into the flying sword. With the infusion of spiritual power, the flying sword hummed, bursting with dazzling light, and then turned into a stream of light, rushing towards the Void Beast like lightning.

Seeing this, the Void Beast let out a sharp and shrill roar. It opened its bloody mouth that could swallow a small mountain, revealing rows of sharp fangs, and bit the flying sword fiercely. There was a sharp metal friction sound that resounded through the night sky, and sparks flew everywhere. However, despite the powerful power of the flying sword, it still could not cause substantial damage to the Void Beast. Its extremely hard teeth bit the flying sword tightly, making it unable to move.

Li Mingyang was secretly shocked. It was obvious that the defense of the void beast was far beyond his previous expectations. However, he did not panic because of this, but changed his tactics immediately. He quickly reached into his arms with his right hand and took out a fire talisman shining with lightning. Then, he waved his hands vigorously and shouted: "Fast!" In an instant, the talisman turned into a ball of blazing flames, like a meteor falling from the sky, and smashed straight into the void beast.

The Void Beast was hit by the sudden flames and immediately let out a howl of extreme pain. Its originally dark body was instantly engulfed by the raging flames, and the whole space was filled with a pungent smell of burning. But what was shocking was that the vitality of the Void Beast was extremely tenacious. In just a moment, it struggled to break free from the shackles of the flames and reappeared in front of Li Mingyang. At this time, although it had many burns on its body, the fierceness in its eyes became more and more intense, as if it wanted to eat Li Mingyang alive.

Li Mingyang knew that the Void Beast in front of him was no ordinary creature, and conventional attacks alone could not cause any substantial damage to it. So, he reached into the storage ring on his waist without hesitation, and his movements were swift and accurate. In an instant, a pill emitting a strange light appeared in his hand.

Li Mingyang took a deep breath and quickly swallowed the pill. As soon as the pill entered his throat, a surge of energy instantly exploded in his body. He could feel his meridians filled with fiery true energy, surging like a torrent. At this moment, his whole body radiated a dazzling light, as if he had turned into a blazing, inextinguishable fireball.

Then, Li Mingyang put his hands together and concentrated on mobilizing the powerful Qi in his body. A huge flame gradually gathered between his palms, and the fire became more and more fierce, eventually forming a giant fireball with a diameter of several meters. With his roar, the fireball shot towards the void beast like an arrow.

The Void Beast obviously did not expect Li Mingyang to suddenly use such a powerful attack, and it was too late to dodge. The fireball hit the Void Beast hard, and a loud noise that shook the earth suddenly erupted. The body of the Void Beast was wrapped in raging flames, and the originally hard scales were burned black, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of burning.

However, surprisingly, despite suffering such a heavy blow, the Void Beast's vitality was extremely tenacious. It endured the severe pain, suddenly jumped up, spread its wide wings, and waved them vigorously, instantly setting off a violent hurricane. Li Mingyang was caught off guard and was swept into the gust of wind.

Li Mingyang, who was in the center of the storm, immediately felt the huge pressure coming from all directions. This force was as heavy as a mountain pressing down on an egg, making him almost unable to breathe. But he did not panic at all, but quickly adjusted his internal breath and used all his strength to circulate the true energy in his body. In the blink of an eye, a layer of light blue light appeared around him, struggling against the raging wind.

Just when Li Mingyang felt that he was about to collapse, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through his exhausted and nearly collapsed consciousness. In an instant, a memory came to his mind. It was an ancient and mysterious spell - "Nine Transformations of the Golden Body"! This spell was a unique skill passed down by his master. It possessed amazing power and could greatly improve the body's defense in a short period of time.

Li Mingyang did not dare to delay for even a moment. He closed his eyes tightly and quickly recited the obscure formula in his mind. As he recited the formula, the true energy in his body surged like a surging river, flowing madly through his limbs and bones. Gradually, the true energy gathered together and formed a layer of dazzling golden light shield on his body surface. This layer of light shield emitted a dazzling light, as if a golden sun descended on the earth, tightly wrapping Li Mingyang's entire body.

At the same time, the ferocious void beast launched another fierce attack. It opened its bloody mouth and spewed out black energy beams, which shot at Li Mingyang like deadly arrows. However, when these attacks landed on the golden light shield, they only made a crisp and pleasant "ding-dong" sound, just like raindrops hitting lotus leaves, and could not penetrate the indestructible defense at all.

Seeing this, Li Mingyang was overjoyed. He knew that he had finally found an effective way to fight against the void beast. So, he seized this rare opportunity without hesitation, and quickly formed various complex seals with his hands, while chanting something in his mouth, casting more powerful spells. Suddenly, a golden lightning flashed across the sky, and then, a thick golden light column fell from the sky, with the power of destroying the world, and bombarded the void beast directly.

The Void Beast felt this terrifying power, and it was too late to dodge. It only let out a miserable scream, and its entire body was instantly pierced by the golden light. The moment it came into contact with the golden light, the body of the Void Beast began to tremble violently, and then gradually decomposed into wisps of black smoke, and finally dissipated into the air, leaving no trace.

After successfully defeating the Void Beast, Li Mingyang breathed a sigh of relief. He felt weak all over, as if all his strength had been consumed in the previous battle. However, he still forced himself to be strong and carefully put away his spell. Then, he slowly stood up with trembling legs and looked around vigilantly.
