In fact, if possible, Lin Ji still wanted to wait until Tian Guosheng arrived.
Anyone who is qualified to serve as a state or town official is at least one of the best in the sixth realm.
This place is not far from Jade City, and Lin Ji, who has experienced the terrifying nature of the Sun Travel Realm, is naturally unwilling to let such a strong man go.
But the evil spirit he detected in the distance was already extremely weak. Lin Ji was afraid that if he delayed for a moment longer, the only clue would be interrupted, which would cause even more trouble.
When it was time to be more decisive, Lin Ji would not hesitate even if he took some risks.
Taking Gao Ling with them, the two figures passed through the night sky, and soon came to the place where the evil spirit remained.
Falling from mid-air, Lin Ji glanced around, his consciousness already beginning to explore.
"over there."
When he got close, Lin Ji could clearly notice that the evil force was slowly flowing in a certain direction.
He walked quickly in the direction detected by his spiritual consciousness, with Gao Ling following closely behind.
Soon, the two came to a mound.
This mound is unremarkable.
When it was just in the sky, there was a flat plain for dozens of miles, but there were not a few similar mounds.
But at this moment, when he came closer, Lin Ji saw at a glance that a hole two or three meters long and wide was exposed on one side of the mound.
"This looks like...a hole dug by someone." Gao Ling looked at the hole and guessed.
"That's right, the excavated soil is piled on both sides, and there is a faint breeze blowing out from under the hole... The bottom is empty, and the hole was dug from above." Lin Ji nodded.
Hearing this, Gao Ling frowned.
"Tomb robbing?"
Lin Ji wasn't sure.
Standing outside the cave at this time, the breeze blowing out of the cave was mixed with the power of evil, so much so that Lin Ji had already begun to use his cultivation to resist it.
Even standing outside, Lin Ji was not only curious but also a little cautious as to what was underneath.
"Master Lin, since we have found this place, why not wait until Master Tian comes?" Gao Ling suggested.
Lin Ji also had this idea.
He had chased him recklessly before because he was afraid of losing clues, but now there was no way to escape from this underground cave, so there was no need for him to risk his life.
"You're right...wait!"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lin Ji's expression suddenly changed slightly.
The sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded in the cave in front of me.
When Lin Ji noticed the sound of breaking wind and looked towards the cave, a big withered hand appeared in front of him, only a few inches away from the vital part of his neck.
In an instant, Lin Ji's heart almost rose to his throat.
The hand appeared a little faster than the sound of breaking wind, so that it was already a little late when he reacted.
"Back off!"
Lin Ji shouted loudly, then made a fist with one hand and punched the big withered hand hard.
Bang!
After a muffled sound, the huge force in his big hand made Lin Ji retreat continuously, and he retreated for more than ten meters before he could stand still.
But at the same time, the big hand felt uncomfortable. It seemed to be deflated and shakily retracted into the hole.
"Master Lin!" Only then did Gao Ling finally react and hurriedly moved away from the entrance of the cave, then came to Lin Ji again.
Then, he saw Lin Ji grabbing his right wrist with his left hand without saying a word.
When Gao Ling came closer, he saw that Lin Ji's right hand was already completely black. The extremely rich Yin evil spirit made him subconsciously take several steps back. It was not until he used his spiritual energy to resist that he finally did something.
Get better.
"The one at the bottom should be the leader of the previous group of zombies. I don't know how powerful he is, but that claw just now... obviously gave him the upper hand." Lin Ji took a deep breath.
The spiritual energy in his body was already circulating, constantly passing through the meridians of his hands, eliminating the evil spirits lingering in his hands for a long time.
After just a few breaths, the dark right hand that had just been darkened had returned to some of its original appearance.
The trouble at hand was simple, but what was under the hole made Lin Ji feel a little frightened.
"Just by changing one move, its evil aura is already so powerful...and the zombies under its command are even from the fourth realm."
Thinking of this, Lin Ji was still ready to retreat first.
The green hills are left without worrying about having no firewood, and Tian Guosheng, who has been traveling for a day, comes to let Tian Guosheng make plans again.
However, just when Lin Ji was about to greet Gao Ling to leave, the ground under his feet suddenly began to tremble.
At first it was just a slight tremor, but after a few breaths, the entire mound felt like the earth was shaking.
The gravel continued to roll down, and dust began to fly.
Lin Ji's pupils shrank suddenly. This was not something that could be caused in the fifth realm.
Not daring to delay, he didn't even look at it. He grabbed Gao Ling's arm and wanted to jump into the air and get away from the scene first.
But when he was just about to take off, his feet had already left the ground, but he found that the Gao Ling he was holding was motionless on the spot, even with his fifth-level strength, he couldn't shake it.
"Why don't you leave? There is no need to risk your life at this time. Don't die foolishly!" Lin Ji turned back with some complaints.
The next moment, he was like a frightened rabbit, his heart jumped into his throat with fear.
At this moment, what he was holding in his hand was actually the arm that was connected to the big withered hand just now.
But that's not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that not only the arms, but also the owners of the big hands appear.
What appeared in front of Lin Ji's eyes was a humanoid monster wearing a black robe.
The black robe on his body was in tatters and had a rotten smell that could be described as disgusting.
As for the body under the black robe, it is skinny and skinny, and the skin is blue. Just seeing it makes people panic.
There was no nose on his face, leaving only two holes for eyes. The skin wrapped the eye sockets, but the eye sockets were pitch black.
Lin Ji was so frightened that he quickly let go. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Gao Ling lying on the side, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
He didn't even know what was happening.
But to be able to beat Gao Ling until he didn't know whether he was alive or dead when he was so close, it was obvious that the person in front of him was not a simple and easy person.
Therefore, as soon as the thought came into his mind, Lin Ji couldn't wait to let go and run away.
But the moment he let go of his hand, the skeleton-like monster grabbed his wrist with its backhand.
"Monster, let go!"
Lin Ji shouted loudly, and the Tiangang Sword was unsheathed, and he grabbed the hilt with his left hand.
Then, he raised his sword and slashed at the skeleton's arm that was holding his wrist.
In the blink of an eye, the Tiangang Sword has fallen.
But the imagined split with one sword did not happen.
clang!
The fire was everywhere, but it was unscathed.
But at this moment, there seemed to be a faint hint of ridicule on the skull-like face of the monster in front of him.
Then, he opened his mouth suddenly.
A burst of black energy burst out, covering Lin Ji and everything around him.
