Sure enough, as Qin Yichen darted forward, the surrounding Death Spirits seemed to sense someone coming to seek death. Immediately, several Death Spirits with black hair, carrying a nauseating foul wind, pounced towards Qin Yichen.
*Boom!* Just as they were about to grab Qin Yichen, a nearly transparent Yuan Energy burst out from his body.
Sensing this special scorching feeling, these Death Spirits, which had already gained a bit of sentience, showed humanised fear in their withered pupils. Their bodies slightly stiffened, and in this gap, Qin Yichen operated the Falling Technique of the Nameless Cultivation Technique to its extreme.
His figure flashed like lightning, quickly passing through the group of Death Spirits and entering inside.
“Wh… what?!”
“He actually rushed through!? How is this possible?!” Seeing Qin Yichen pass through the group of Death Spirits before them, many experts revealed disbelieving looks in their eyes.
*Whoosh!*
*Whoosh!*
Two quicker-witted experts moved, swiftly following behind him.
“Ah!……” However, this time, the Death Spirits did not freeze. They fully demonstrated the terror of Death Spirits. In almost a breath’s time, these few experts were torn to pieces by the Death Spirits.
Fresh blood dripped onto the ground, but did not coagulate. Instead, it was strangely absorbed by this piece of land, disappearing from sight.
At this moment, these experts who had just entered finally understood why the ground before them appeared dark red!
It was a thousand metres stretch of dark red ground. Just how much blood would it take to dye it red?!
Thinking of this, the powerhouses entering here for the first time could not help but feel a bone-chilling fear. Some even wanted to retreat.
“Everyone, let’s join forces, otherwise no one will be able to enter the Death Zone!”
After a while, someone in the crowd finally spoke up with a suggestion.
This proposal immediately gained many supporters. Whether they came to hunt Death Spirits for Spirit Pearls or to search for treasures in the depths of the Death Zone, they would undoubtedly have to fight these Death Spirits.
Afterwards, nearly a thousand human experts began to fight with these Death Spirits with black hair. For a time, various piercing screams were incessant, and fresh blood once again dyed this land red.
All of this, however, no longer concerned Qin Yichen.
After passing through the passage and entering the Death Zone, although it was still deathly quiet with gloomy winds, it was certainly not as crowded with Death Spirits as the outer region.
Inside, the sky was an eerie grey colour, with no sunlight visible. There was no flowing air around, giving an extremely oppressive feeling.
Qin Yichen quickly locked onto a direction and darted towards a dilapidated ruin.
This was once the largest city in the Northern Region, but the city walls had completely collapsed, and the buildings inside had mostly crumbled. Even the building symbolising the former Alchemy Tower had broken in half, showing how fierce the battle at that time must have been.
An entire great city, with a population of tens of millions, probably did not even have one-tenth surviving.
It was precisely because of this that the current Death Zone came into being!
Qin Yichen’s figure quickly disappeared into a dilapidated courtyard.
Inside, walls had collapsed, screens were broken, weeds grew wildly, and cobwebs were everywhere, emitting a chilling aura.
“Ugh……” Soon, Qin Yichen discovered a Death Spirits with black hair. Just as the Death Spirits turned around, a milky-white long sword passed through its head. Instantly, its remained frozen and fell down, and a Spirit Pearl also fell to the ground with a *ding*.
Qin Yichen happily picked up the Spirit Pearl and directly refined it.
Indeed, the Spirit Pearls from Death Spirits with black hair were incomparable to those white haired Death Spirits. One was worth at least dozens.
As soon as he consumed it, Qin Yichen felt his Soul improving.
“It seems like the Death Spirits’s cultivation realm was not too low.”
Qin Yichen did not need to worry like other Alchemy Masters about refining too much and causing chaos.
What a joke, if he could not control such a small amount of Spiritual Energy, then his title of Alchemy Saint would be wasted.
It could be said that now, Qin Yichen lacked nothing except Spirit Pearls. As long as he had enough Spirit Pearls to absorb, he could endlessly improve his Spiritual Energy cultivation without worrying about any side effects.
However, while he was happily hunting Death Spirits and devouring Spirit Pearls, he did not notice that a black shadow had already followed behind him, opening its large mouth, about to swallow him in one bite.
*Roar!……* Suddenly, a Dragon Manifestation appeared in this monster’s eyes, causing it to instantly pause.
“Hmm?!” Qin Yichen finally sensed something unusual and immediately turned around. Then, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
[What kind of monster is this? It looked like a Dog but it is not a Dog. It has an Ox’s mouth. The strangest thing is that it had two fleshy horns on its head, making its resemblance hard to explain.]
Even with Qin Yichen’s knowledge, he could not recognize what this thing was.
His sudden turn led to their first encounter…
Qin Yichen was stunned.
That monster was also stunned.
The two just stared at each other blankly for a while, then slowly moved apart, curiously examining each other.
The monster was puzzled why it saw a manifestation of a Dragon on Qin Yichen.
Qin Yichen was more puzzled how a living creature could appear in the Death Zone!
Both found each other’s existence very incredible.
Both felt that the other’s existence defied common sense and logic.
Just as Qin Yichen wanted to use his Spirit Sword to test how strong this monster was, the strange creature opposite him suddenly sat down like a Dog. Then, sticking out its tongue. It panted at him, looking somewhat ingratiating.
However, Qin Yichen still did not let his guard down. This was the Death Zone after all!
The monster before him had glossy fur and was full of vitality, showing no signs of being eroded by Death Energy.
It was truly peculiar.
What especially surprised Qin Yichen was that he could not perceive what level this Monster was at.
For example, looking at it now, it was just like a harmless mongrel, without any hint of danger.
But how could a mongrel survive here?
Seeming to sense Qin Yichen’s hostility, this monster’s large, crystal-clear eyes were covered with a layer of mist, looking at him somewhat aggrievedly.
“Do you want to follow me?” Qin Yichen asked with a puzzled tone.
*Huff… huff…* The monster was panting like a mongrel, wagging its tail vigorously. But just that wagging left clear marks on the ground.
Indeed, this creature was far from simple!
