Chapter 544: Chapter 540: Yin Cold Energy Chapter 544: Chapter 540: Yin Cold Energy “It seems like a river, should we go and check it out first?” Lu Huaming turned to Shen Luo and Xie Yuxin, seeking their opinions.
The three of them had been walking for quite a while now and finally, there were so changes ahead, Shen Luo and Xie Yuxin naturally did not object to this proposal.
Moving in the direction of the sound of flowing water, a water area quickly appeared in front of them, looking like a large river. However, they couldn’t see across to the other bank, the vast river obstructed their vision.
The river also extended far to the left and right, with no identifiable boundaries, seemingly forming an unsurpassable barrier in their path.
The river water was brown, much like murky mud water, with a bit of white fog floating on the surface, imbuing an unusual air of mystery.
By this ti, Xie Yuxin had lost much of her fear. Fascinated by this river that was so different from the human realm, a trace of curiosity surfaced on her face as she stepped forward to examine the river closely.
“The rivers in the Netherworld contain a strong presence of Yin Qi, and fierce ghosts could be hidden at the bottom. Don’t get too close!” Lu Huaming stretched out his hand to stop Xie Yuxin from approaching.
Xie Yuxin hurriedly moved back a couple of steps, clutching her chest lightly.
Shen Luo regarded the river water ahead, then pointed out with his hand.
A black light shot out- it was a black Devil Binding Rope. He couldn’t recall who he had obtained the item from but the front end of the rope plunged directly into the river.
With a slight ‘crack’ sound, the tip of the Devil Binding Rope crystallized into a layer of white ice.
Shen Luo hastily called back the Devil Binding Rope, his gaze darted at the frozen tip, his gaze flickering incessantly.
It was not just the tip of the rope that had frozen. An extrely pure, and exceedingly cold Yin Qi had seeped into the rope, completely destroying its internal structure.
He flicked his fingers, unleashing a gust of wind on the crystallized part of the rope.
The white ice crystals shattered on impact, and the rope beneath it crumbled as well.
“This river is so cold that even a magical instrunt couldn’t withstand it.” Xie Yuxin gasped.
“No, it was not the river water that destroyed Brother Shen’s magical instrunt. It was the white fog on the river surface. The Yin Cold Energy contained in the white fog is far more potent than the river water. Could it be that the fog is exuding Yin Cold Energy?” Lu Huaming, with his sharp eyes, had figured out what had destroyed the Devil Binding Rope, and started mumbling to himself.
“Yin Cold Energy?” Xie Yuxin’s face reflected her confusion.
The Devil Binding Rope was Shen Luo’s magical instrunt, and he was certainly aware of all its aspects. However, he had never heard of ‘Yin Cold Energy’ before, so he turned to Lu Huaming for an explanation.
“Yin Cold Energy is a special Yin Qi that forms only in places where both Yin and Cold Qi are extrely concentrated and interact with each other. It’s unfortunate that this place is too vast. If this was within a small space, it could possibly solidify into a Nether Cold Stone—that’s the real treasure!” Lu Huaming explained.
After listening to this, Shen Luo once again turned his eyes toward the white fog on the river surface, discovering the remarkable origins of these things.
“This Yin Cold Energy is also very precious, it is an excellent material for refining Yin-attribute magical instrunts. In the human realm, it’s nearly impossible to co across anything like this. Since we have encountered it here, why don’t we each collect so of it? Just avoid using regular vessels; they won’t be able to withstand this cold Yin power.” Lu Huaming continued, then he took out a Jade Gourd magical instrunt, gesturing and beckoning.
The Jade Gourd flew out and drew in a suction force.
The white fog on the river surface converged, forming a column of white Qi that flowed into the Jade Gourd.
Xie Yuxin also used a jade vase magical instrunt to collect the Yin Cold Energy from the river surface.
The Yin Cold Energy on the river surface was inexhaustible. Even though the two of them were doing their best to collect it, the white fog on the river surface showed no signs of diminishing.
Shen Luo was also tempted by the Yin Cold Energy on the river surface. This thing had easily corroded and destroyed the Devil Binding Rope, if it was refined into other magical instrunts, their power would certainly be substantial.
But he did not act imdiately, instead, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face.
Though he had many magical instrunts with him, the only one with the ability to collect anything was the Qiankun Bag. It was very important to him. Not because the Qiankun Bag had a strong offensive power, but because he needed it to carry the Ghost General.
Natural Yin Qi could be collected by the Qiankun Bag. But the Nether Cold Energy’s destructive power was formidable. Even though the Qiankun Bag was a top-grade magical instrunt, it might not withstand it.
“Let’s try to collect a bit first, if the Qiankun Bag can’t cope with it, I’ll imdiately retrieve it.” Shen Luo uttered an incantation to activate the Qiankun Bag and collected a small wisp of the white fog from the river surface.
As for the Ghost General in the Qiankun Bag, he was not worried that it would be hard by the Nether Cold Energy. Being a ghost, the Ghost General favored Yin energy and was not afraid of cold.
The collected Nether Cold Energy entered the bag and quickly spread in all directions, soon touching the inside of the bag.
The black light on the interior of the bag flowed, showing no signs of erosion from the Nether Cold Energy.
Shen Luo sensed this and felt relieved, intending to increase the absorbing power of the Qiankun Bag.
Unexpectedly, the black light on the bag’s interior suddenly began to flicker, rapidly absorbing the Nether Cold Energy.
In just a few breaths, the wisp of Nether Cold Energy was completely absorbed by the Qiankun Bag.
“The Qiankun Bag can actually absorb the Nether Cold Energy…” Shen Luo was stunned; this was completely beyond his expectations.
He concentrated his senses, the Qiankun Bag had not changed in any way after absorbing the Nether Cold Energy.
Shen Luo contemplated for a mont and then continued to urge the Qiankun Bag, exerting a powerful suction force.
The Nether Cold Energy on the river surface seed to have found an outlet, all rushing towards the Qiankun Bag like an inexhaustible stream.
The speed at which the Qiankun Bag absorbed the Nether Cold Energy was far superior to Lu Huaming’s Jade Gourd and Xie Yuxin’s Jade Vase Magical Device, earning surprised glances from the two.
The Nether Cold Energy that entered the Qiankun Bag was imdiately swiftly integrated into the bag’s wall.
The black light on the bag wall flickered happily, as if it had consud a potent tonic, rapidly becoming brighter and ingesting the Nether Cold Energy at an increased pace.
Thin streaks of white light began to appear on the originally pitch-black bag, evoking a sense of eerie coldness rather than brightness.
Shen Luo carefully examined the situation inside the Qiankun Bag, a smile of joy erging at the corners of his mouth.
After absorbing a significant amount of Nether Cold Energy, the two prohibitions that were originally scattered inside the Qiankun Bag seed to show signs of recovery.
The Ghost General, who was in the midst of his cultivation, was also awakened and upon seeing the Nether Cold Energy inside the bag, his eyes filled with joy.
“Such pure Yin Qi, Master, can I absorb it?” asked the Ghost General tentatively, seeing the Qiankun Bag absorbing the Nether Cold Energy, thinking that Shen Luo was refining sothing. The Nether Cold Energy was too tempting to him.
“You can.” With the endless supply of Nether Cold Energy on the river surface, Shen Luo was not stingy.
The Ghost General was overjoyed and quickly began to absorb the Nether Cold Energy.
However, the speed at which he absorbed the Yin Qi was far slower than the Qiankun Bag itself.
Unconcerned with the Ghost General, Shen Luo urged the Qiankun Bag to its fullest, absorbing all the Nether Cold Energy around it. In a short ti, all the Yin Qi on the river surface of this area was absorbed.
Just then, the river surface, devoid of the Nether Cold Energy, suddenly boiled. Several black tendrils, as thick as a millstone, shot out from the river at an alarming speed, coiling towards the three of them.
