The Yin Field was a place in the center of the Dead Swamp.
The Dead Swamp was surrounded by countless swamps; the muddy sludge could be seen everywhere. There was almost not a single dry spot.
However, the Yin Field at the middle of the Dead Swamp was an exception.
Here, there were no swamps, and no ooze. The ground was mostly flat, and although not especially dry, it was still not as humid as the outer area of the Dead Swamp.
The Yin field was an extraordinary place. The air above the field was covered with thick dark clouds all year around, such that not even the sun, moon, and the stars could be seen.
Perhaps that was the reason why the Yin Qi in the Yin Field was especially heavy. Anyone who enters would feel very uncomfortable.
The place didn’t appear to be frigid, but the Yin energy all around made people chilled to their bones. One would feel as if they had entered a supernatural space, surrounded by evil spirits; it felt very creepy.
When Leylin just entered into the Yin field, he remained stoic but could feel the Yin energy which seems similar to dense dark elemental particles. He took a deep breath and felt the chilling energy seep into his bones. Although it wasn’t very discomforting here, it still made people uncomfortable all over.
Standing on the frigid earth, Leylin gazed around and found some strange exotic plants growing.
These plants were not very tall, the tallest being only five to six meters, but they all grew in the weirdest pattern. There were various plants with very pale flowers, absolutely lacking any variance in color.
Especially with some plants, their flowers looked like ghastly faces, giving off an extremely terrifying feeling.
Just standing in the middle of those bizarre plants made Leylin could feel the peculiarity of this place. When he looked at those plants, he always felt like they were going to leap towards him and bite him.
‘The Yin Qi here is conspicuous, even the habitat that grew from it are very strange. Some flora capable of not even surviving but instead thrive by sucking in the Yin Qi and the corpse energies. While some others would attack as soon as they smell the breath of a human, and entangle onto that human until they die.’
Leylin looked around and smiled, “This is just the place I was looking for, almost everyone is here. Ordell Omega, Ben parks, Dark World, Crystal, Ashdown, Lenoir families, the swamp guy. All I need to do is to spark a conflict in them and enjoy the massacre, I have been able to slip away from the perception of three Sky realm warriors and enter the inner zone of Yin Field so, attracting the trouble and pushing off would be easy for me.”
Sitting on the ground, Leylin ordered the A. I. Chip with a solemn face, “Transfer the knowledge of the [Black Formula] after final optimization.”
[Beep! Transferring… Transfer complete!]
Although the A. I. Chip has already long proceeded the algorithm needed for studying and improving Black Formula but still, Leylin rechecked by simulating it in the highly dense Yin Qi environment.
“Get ready for the fight everyone, The Nine-headed Sky Snake will come out soon. It needs Yin Qi to train with, so it will chase you at all expense! I will spare you the efforts of entering inside yourself.”
Although the [Black Formula] was merely a Mortal Level Martial Skill at first look, but it was definitely strange. To train with it, one must trigger the Yin Qi between the heaven and earth and form three Yin Swirls around the three meridians in one’s chest.
As long as the swirls are formed, one can trigger the [Black Formula] and absorb the Yin Qi around them easily.
Once the three swirls absorbed enough Yin Qi, they would produce three Yin Pearls, which would go down the three meridians.
And after that, the Yin Swirls could continue absorbing Yin Qi endlessly.
As long as there was enough Yin Qi, the Yin Swirls would produce more Yin Pearls and submerge into the meridians.
The more Yin pearls in the meridians, the more powerful the [Black Formula] would be.
The one who trained with the [Black Formula] could collect Yin Qi by merely triggering the [Black Formula] and absorbing it into the three Yin Swirls.
When that happens it would trigger intense repercussions from the Nine-headed Sky Snake which will come soon, as it won’t allow anyone to devour the Yin Qi.
Although the [Black Formula] was merely a Mortal Level Martial Skill, Leylin knew it has high potential in absorbing Yin Qi in extremely large amount.
It seemed that the three Yin Swirls would devour Yin Qi ceaselessly once there was enough Yin Qi.
Leylin had studied so many Martial Skills throughout the months, but he had this particular one as the most strange.
There was an end goal to train to with every Martial Skill, but the [Black Formula] could be trained endlessly.
Sitting on the ground with a calm face, Leylin didn’t hesitate at all. He connected his senses, to operate his will to three meridians and concentrated Yin Qi into them.
During that process, his body was still slight pressure, as his hadn’t adapted to the Yin Qi yet.
Gradually, the Yin Qi began to circle around the three meridians according to his will.
His body found a strange attraction to Yin Qi as he began to operate the [Black Formula].
While he was refining his Yin Swirls, the Yin Qi around him began to gather and poured into his pores. At last, it arrived at the three meridians and started to spin slowly.
“Overdrive Camouflage!”
*Boom*
Suddenly Leylin body shone as he began attracting ridiculous amounts of Yin Qi towards himself at an extremely rapid pace, his figure turning illusionary.
Soon enough, he had accumulated lots of Yin Qi in the three meridians in his chest. He operated the Yin Qi according to his will and divided it into several wisps to spin around the meridians.
As the Yin Qi accumulated, it spun faster and faster, and was about to form into real Yin Swirls.
After taking a deep breath and holding it, he began to concentrate on controlling the Yin Qi.
“So different yet so similar… ”
Wisps of Yin Qi began to intertwine at the three meridians in his chest, and under his control, was quickly forming into circles.
As he reached this state, he would reach out to sense the Yin Qi in his surroundings; it was as if the Yin Qi was gathering around him under some magical force.
After a few of revolution in the front of his chest, the Yin Qi in his body seemed to have changed slightly.
A few hours passed.
As Leylin was sitting there silently, suddenly his eyelids shook slightly and then kept quivering for a little while.
More and more Yin Qi concentrated and combined in front of his chest as it spun faster and faster.
Looking inside, he found the Profound Qi around his three meridians becoming stronger and spinning faster.
The Profound Qi that he had absorbed rushed into the three meridians and then was refined and resolved into more gray strings.
More and more gray strings gathered in the swirls inside the meridians, making the swirls spin faster and faster…
Not knowing how much time had passed, a gloomy air was suddenly forced out from the swirls.
More and more Yin Qi gathered from all directions and gushed into his pores heading for the centers of the three swirls, while they were spinning faster and faster.
The three swirls had formed a shadow and that shadow was emitting a strong attraction force.
“Done! I guess being an overpowered Earth Realm Warriors with modified Black Formula and extraordinary Vitality comes with the perks, I could do what would take average person to do in weeks, into just a few hour.”
The strong attraction force meant that a Yin Swirl had officially formed!
Thus, the power of the Yin Swirl to devour Yin Qi was triggered!
All of a sudden, the Yin Qi inside the Yin Field seemed to find an exit and flooded towards Leylin.
Ten meters above his head, three odd swirls, with the shape of a serpent, mouth gradually appeared.
Those swirls were similar to the Yin Swirls inside him, and were apparently influenced by the Yin Swirls in his chest. They spun in line with his Yin Swirls and were attracting more Yin Qi to his location.
Huge amounts of Yin Qi gushed into the three snake swirls above him which were expanding quickly!
In merely ten minutes, those swirls had swollen to the size of a wash basin, and kept devouring Yin Qi from all directions.
Everyone in the Yin Valley all stopped their discussion about the map and stood up, frowned as they felt the usual movement of the Yin Qi.
“Someone is doing something with the Yin Qi, is this Nine-headed, no that can’t be it won’t be devouring it!? It’s akin to cutting off it’s own head.” Ben Parks(Neelam’s Sky Realm Master) looked up as he squinted his eyes. Along with him were the group from Ashdown and Lenoir family.
“The Nine-headed Sky Snake has nine heads, three of which can breathe fire, three can spit poison, and the remaining three can control the Yin Qi in the Yin Field to attack differently. The three heads that can control the natural Yin Qi are very troublesome and they will be hard to take care of. Depletion of Yin Qi would cause three of the nine heads to be useless and it will be greatly weakened!” Walking with them was a hairless ugly man covered in mud. This hideous looking strange man could easily navigate through the mud and the dark green scales on his body made him more frightening.
He is Zack Quank (Zhua Qi), the sky realm warrior living at the periphery of Dead Swamp, He was born from a Level 8 Mud Dragon and a human female warrior. The Mud Dragon was originally the true master of the Dead Swamp and was able to transform into human shape. It was also once the strongest demon beast in this area.
Legend has it that back then, the Mud Dragon was the king of the demon beasts here and not a single warrior could offend his prestige! The Mud Dragon was a Level 8 demon beast, comparable to a Spirit Realm warrior. But a thousand years ago it suddenly died in the Dead Swamp, it was a baffling death. Many years after its death, the Nine-headed Snake finally appeared in the Dead Swamp, and drove Zack to the outer perimeter of the Dead Swamp. It forcibly occupied the Yin Valley to cultivate, which is why Zack has so much hatred for it and joined Ben to get rid of it in search of Gate of Heaven.
“I don’t know what’s happening and who’s doing this, but it’s an opportunity we shouldn’t lose.”
“I agree.”
…
The three swirls above Leylin were still expanding!
Few minutes later, the three swirls were like a tornado, extremely frightening.
The swirls kept spinning crazily as they tried to devour all the Yin Qi in the Yin Valley!
With an indifferent face, Leylin sat there without moving, continuously operating the swirls inside him, seemingly not caring about the phenomenon and consequences around himself.
He could clearly feel that the three swirls in his chest had accelerated several times.
The dense gray Yin Qi had hovered in the Yin Field for thousands of years, isolating it from the sky, blocking both sunlight and moonlight.
However today, the Yin Qi between the sky and the Yin Field all went crazy as it endlessly gushed into the swirls above Leylin.
Soon enough, the three swirls above his head had turned as huge as three mountains, filled with odd light. They looked like three huge mouths, ready to swallow all the Yin Qin between heaven and earth.
…
Howl! Howl! Howl!”
From the Yin Valley, crazy hollows came with extraordinary rage.
“Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang!”
Massive booms suddenly came from within the Yin Valley.
Everybody shook with the earth, and they could feel that a huge monster was approaching them quickly.
“There it is!” Zack Quank screamed.
Leylin who the cause of this mess remained conspicuous as the three Yin Pearls were slowly forming. With more natural Yin Qi flowing in, the three Yin pearls grew brighter and brighter.
The Yin pearls were in the middle of the Yin Swirls outside of his meridians. They were rolling in the air and whenever a wisp of grey Yin Qi came in, the Yin Pearls would immediately absorb the grey light spots.
Only when the Yin Pearls were truly formed would they finally sink into the three meridians by themselves.
“Roar! Roar! Roar!”
Terrifying roaring sounds thundered from the distance and filled the whole Yin Field.
The Nine-headed Sky Snake was a demon beast which was at the pinnacle of Level 7. Legend has it that it was an ancient mutant, a hybrid born from a dragon and a python. It has the ability to keep evolving, so when the Nine-headed Sky Snake has swallowed enough Yin Qi, poisonous air, and fire, it could evolve again and become a Level 8 or Level 9 demon beast.
The reason why this Nine-headed Sky Snake decided to take over the Yin Field was because it had seen that this place was rich in Yin Qi, and the outer perimeter of the Dead Swamp was covered by poisonous fog. It wanted to occupy this place so that it could use the poisonous air and the Yin Qi present for cultivation.
Soon a mountain-like figure, the Sky Snake with nine giant heads, finally came out of the Yin Valley.
The Nine-headed Sky Snake had a body like a mountain, covered with silver scales and sharp spines. All nine of its heads were about twenty-something meters long. Each head was like a giant python and had creepy white fangs, each head was breathing out either poisonous fog, Yin Qi, or flames.
“Attack!”
