After Meng Zhang firmly memorized the location and terrain here and ensured that all traces around it were cleared, he got on his horse with Tian Zhen and the others, left here, and returned to Taiyi Gate.
Returning to Taiyi Gate, the three of them cleaned the harvested copper ore and put it into the warehouse.
At night, Meng Zhang entered the trial site again.
A few nights ago, he discovered groups of Yin soldiers gathering together to surround a certain place.
In order to find out the details of that place, Meng Zhang began to slowly clear out the Yin soldiers from the outside.
As if playing a game, Meng Zhang slowly lured the Yin soldiers to leave alone, and then killed them one by one.
But it's a pity that reality is not about playing games. These underworld soldiers obviously have a certain amount of wisdom.
Meng Zhanggang eliminated two groups of Yin soldiers, just like poking a hornet's nest, attracting groups of Yin soldiers who lined up in neat military formations.
These Yin soldiers did not pursue Meng Zhang individually or in groups, but took on the posture of a lion fighting a rabbit, dispatching several teams at once.
The Yin soldiers formed a military formation and approached step by step, with an overwhelming momentum.
Obviously, this is to rely on numerical superiority to drown Meng Zhang alive.
Meng Zhang didn't dare to fight, so he quickly ran away.
Fortunately, he ran away fast enough to avoid being surrounded by the Yin soldiers.
This is too foul. Faced with one or two teams, or even two or three teams of shady soldiers, Meng Zhang dared to face them head-on.
But this overwhelming group of Yin soldiers is too numerous.
And the most hateful thing is that these Yin soldiers obviously not only have some kind of instinct, but are also smarter than ordinary Yin soldiers, and will not be fooled by Meng Zhang's tricks at all.
There was no other way, so Meng Zhang could only give up the idea of a frontal attack for the time being.
Meng Zhang used the newly learned soul technique, the Hazy Technique, to make the soul become hazy and unclear. Then, using the cover of the surrounding fog, he sneaked in secretly.
After getting close to a certain level, Meng Zhang did not dare to move forward.
The perception of these Yin soldiers is very sharp. Even in their current state, if they get too close, they will still be discovered.
Meng Zhang used his soul skill, Eagle Eye Technique, and looked through the thick fog to carefully observe the situation ahead.
These Yin soldiers guard the entrance to a canyon.
The canyon is so deep that even the eagle eye technique cannot see clearly what is going on inside.
The canyon is surrounded by towering mountains. Due to the fog, it was impossible to see where the top of the mountain was.
There were at least ten teams of Yin soldiers guarding the entrance to the canyon. As for the Yin soldiers inside, there will only be more. And these smart guys will never take the initiative to stay alone.
Meng Zhang couldn't break through here head on, so he made a big circle to avoid the entrance of the canyon.
As long as they are ghosts, even low-level ghosts have the ability to float. With Meng Zhang's current soul strength, simple flying shouldn't be much of a problem.
Meng Zhang's soul slowly floated up, floating higher and higher, and flew towards the mountains ahead.
Since the entrance to the canyon was guarded by Yin soldiers and it was impossible to break through forcefully, Meng Zhang could only try to enter from the surrounding mountains.
But as soon as Meng Zhang's soul approached the mountains, he felt an invisible barrier blocking his way. No matter what he tried, he couldn't get past this barrier.
"I knew it wasn't that simple."
Meng Zhang muttered to himself.
The mountains next to the canyon are obviously restricted by formations to prevent intruders from approaching.
Since this road is blocked, Meng Zhang has no choice but to give up the idea of going here temporarily.
Anyway, there are a lot of ghosts around, enough to clear them out slowly.
So, Meng Zhang took the initiative to leave here and began to clean up the ghosts around him.
Whether it is a ghost or a dark soldier, as long as you encounter him, you will be killed without leaving a trace.
While cleaning up these ghosts, Meng Zhang took the opportunity to explore the surrounding terrain.
After a busy night, we killed a large number of ghosts and evil soldiers, and it was another good harvest night.
During the day, after completely dispelling the Yin Qi in his body, Meng Zhang continued to practice Shaoyang Qigong.
Once you have reached the fifth level of Qi refining in Shaoyang Qigong, you can practice the Shaoyang True Fire, a spell that comes with this skill.
By absorbing the hottest sunlight at noon and fire spiritual energy, and repeatedly tempering it in the body with Shaoyang True Qi, you can create the masculine fire - Shaoyang True Fire, which has wonderful functions such as warding off evil spirits and killing demons.
Now that there are only a few people in Taiyi Sect, everyone can absorb the spiritual energy of the spiritual veins relatively freely and obtain a relatively sufficient supplement.
With a sufficient supply of spiritual energy, Meng Zhang not only made rapid progress in cultivation, but also almost achieved the Shaoyang True Fire.
The Shaoyang True Fire after attaining minor success can help Meng Zhang expel the Yin Qi that invades the body more efficiently.
At the same time, through the stimulation and tempering of these Yin Qi, Shaoyang True Fire has become more pure.
This really complements each other.
At night, Meng Zhang continued to enter the trial area and frantically harvested various ghosts inside.
After several nights of hard work, Meng Zhang finally figured out the general terrain of the trial site.
The trial place is a plain with a radius of more than 20 miles, with occasional hills and slopes in the middle.
There is an invisible barrier surrounding the trial site as a boundary, blocking the passage of all ghosts.
Meng Zhang also tried many times, but his soul was also unable to break through the surrounding barriers and go to other places.
The boundary of a certain place of trial happened to be the mountain range that Meng Zhang tried to pass through last time.
It seems that the only way to leave the current scope of the trial site and go to a wider distance is through the canyon guarded by Yin soldiers.
In addition, there is a small hillside roughly in the center of the trial area.
Around the hillside, there are also groups of Yin soldiers guarding the area, preventing other ghosts from approaching.
Meng Zhang gave it a try and found that these Yin soldiers were as intelligent as the Yin soldiers guarding the entrance to the canyon.
The method Meng Zhang originally used could not lure these underworld soldiers to leave alone, so he had to give up attacking here temporarily.
Except for these two places, the trial area was almost completely cleaned by Meng Zhang. Almost all ghosts were hunted by him.
While cleaning the trial site, Meng Zhang also discovered another brand-new ghost.
Because this kind of ghost is not a human form, but a variety of ferocious beasts, Meng Zhang named it a ghost beast.
The number of ghost beasts was very small. Meng Zhang traveled throughout the entire trial area but did not encounter a few.
The strength of ghost beasts is much stronger than ordinary Yin soldiers. But after Meng Zhang tried his best to kill a few ghost beasts, he found that his work was in vain.
By killing these ghostly beasts, you will neither get the cool air to restore and strengthen your soul, nor gain any knowledge.
Ghost beasts, such unique ghosts, are truly an alien species in the trial land.
