Chapter 580: Chapter 276: Strange Corpse Puppet, Yuan Shun Appears Again_2

Cultivators like Han Yi, who inquired about the location of the Corpse Domain, were everywhere.

That cultivator in the Corpse Domain might be from the outer world, so it was highly likely that the Corpse Domain itself came from the outer world, and perhaps there would be some opportunities inside. Of course, the risks were also apparent, but to many cultivators, a chance to reach the Spirit Transformation Level was at least worth an attempt.

Next, spanning half of the Qianyuan Sect, Han Yi entered the far north of Tianquan World.

As far as the eye could see, it was an extremely cold world. Countless ancient ice that had not melted in ten thousand years exuded a chilling cold that made even Han Yi shudder. This cold penetrated directly into the Divine Soul.

Han Yi did not linger but crossed the frigid landscape heading directly for the reported location of the Corpse Domain.

During his journey, he overtook dozens of teams of cultivators, some traveling alone and some in groups, all heading in the same direction. It appeared that the Corpse Domain indeed aroused the interest of many cultivators.

On the third day after entering the extremely cold world, Han Yi’s Immortal Boat gradually slowed down before coming to a complete stop.

A few miles ahead of him, a dense fog spread along both sides and the sky, making it impossible to see the edge. It seemed like a wall dividing the extremely cold world into two. Outside the fog, the cold persisted, while inside the fog, the Corpse Qi was so dense that one could not see their own fingers when they stretched out their hand.

Corpse Domain.

This was the rumored Boundless Corpse Domain.

However, according to what Han Yi had heard in Purple Cloud Immortal City, the battle between the outer world cultivator in the Boundless Corpse Domain and the Qianyuan Sect’s Lord Heavenly Phoenix had already taken place almost a month ago. In this one month, none of the Qianyuan Sect’s Spirit Transformation Experts had been able to deal with the Corpse Domain, which caused Han Yi to become more cautious and concerned.

If the outer world cultivator within the Corpse Domain was not Yuan Shun, as Han Yi had speculated, but someone else, stepping into the Corpse Domain would definitely be quite dangerous.

If the outer world cultivator was indeed Yuan Shun, then Han Yi would have even more questions about why Yuan Shun created this Corpse Domain and how he had come from Yu Heng World to Tianquan World. Why did he not return to Yu Heng World? And how could he defeat the Spirit Transformation Expert in just thirty years? Could it be that his realm had already advanced to the Spirit Transformation stage?

With complicated thoughts, Han Yi put away all his ideas, took a deep breath, and began searching for possible clues about ten kilometers away from the edge of the Corpse Domain.

However,

Three days later, apart from finding cultivators like himself, who were eagerly preparing to step into the Corpse Domain, Han Yi found no trace of the outer world cultivators.

But Han Yi did hear about the events that had occurred in this region one month after Lord Heavenly Phoenix was injured and withdrew from the Corpse Domain.

A month ago, the Corpse Domain appeared, and the Lord Heavenly Phoenix entered, encountering an outer world cultivator. That cultivator was half-human and half-corpse, half-infant and half-immortal, and had an unclear state of mind—sometimes normal and suddenly insane.

The reason why Lord Heavenly Phoenix knew that the cultivator was from the outer world was that he had obtained this information when the cultivator was in a sober and communicative state.

However, when Lord Heavenly Phoenix tried to learn more, he found the outer world cultivator suddenly going berserk, causing the entire Corpse Domain to boil in an instant. The originally Nascent Soul Realm outer world cultivator suddenly became extremely powerful, severely injuring Lord Heavenly Phoenix in three moves, forcing him to flee.

Five days after the incident, Lord Heavenly Phoenix returned with the Sect Master of Qianyuan Sect and another Supreme Elder. This time, they gathered three Spirit Transformation stage experts to re-enter the Corpse Domain.

Three days later, the trio withdrew from the Corpse Domain without injuries. However, the Sect Master of Qianyuan Sect announced to the sect that there were no opportunities in the Corpse Domain, only great danger. But as long as cultivators didn’t enter it, there would be no problem, and the Corpse Domain would not expand and would dissipate after some time. With this, he sought to reassure the cultivators within the sect.

The incident was considered closed on the Qianyuan Sect’s level.

However,

Among loose cultivators, Robbing Cultivators, and those seeking opportunities in Human Clan, the story became more and more mysterious.

Some said that the outer world cultivator in the Corpse Domain was a half-immortal who had come to seek a cultivator from Tianquan World to pass on his legacy. The Corpse Domain itself served as a trial, attracting countless cultivators flocking to it.

Others claimed that the Corpse Domain appeared because there was a hidden treasure beneath the far north of Tianquan World. The treasure was difficult to find, and even the outer world cultivator had to search for it within the area. If others could find it, wouldn’t they rise to prominence? This rumor also spurred the cultivators into action.

Various reasons spread throughout the world.

Besides the human cultivators, many demon cultivators had also crossed the battle lines between the two worlds, lurking and scouting near the Corpse Domain during this time, before diving in and disappearing without a trace.

However,

No one had uncovered the truth about the Corpse Domain in the past month, even when the three Spirit Transformation Experts from Qianyuan Sect entered together, they had not been able to explore its depths.

At this moment,

Han Yi stood in the void several miles away from the Corpse Domain, his eyes flickering with thoughts. Yesterday, he had already inspected the dense Corpse Qi that hung in the air like thick fog.

This Corpse Qi was similar in appearance to the fog on Xuandan Peak but was essentially different. The fog on Xuandan Peak was not Corpse Qi, but rather ordinary fog. However, the Corpse Qi of the Corpse Domain was similar in nature to the Corpse Qi that had enveloped the former site of the Xuandan Sect, but it far surpassed the original Corpse Qi in terms of quality and quantity.

Corpse Qi, in essence, was also a kind of Spirit Energy, but whereas Spirit Energy was primarily focused on ‘life,’ Corpse Qi was mainly associated with ‘death.’
