Lin Yi laughed and said, "Wilderness, Witchcraft and Ghost Path, what a coincidence. I was just about to set sail for the Wilderness to find a treasure and settle some karmic debts. I didn't expect to have arrived at my destination already."
Zen Yinsha explained in detail: "The Taoist arts of the Witchcraft and Ghost Path follow the path of cultivating external demons to suppress inner demons, using demons to control demons. They generally cultivate external bodies, using the skeletons and corpses of humans and animals to create iron corpses, bronze corpses, silver corpses, gold corpses, flying corpses, witch corpses, heavenly corpses, and corpse emperors, and finally cultivate into supreme demon lords."
"These external bodies are all physical entities, possessing immense strength. They have wings on their backs and can fly and burrow like eagles and giant birds, making them extremely terrifying. Even masters of Taoist arts are unwilling to provoke them. Furthermore, they can command fierce ghosts and set up deadly Yin formations. The most powerful figures among them are no less skilled than me."
"Legend has it that after ancient times, there were powerful figures in the Witchcraft and Ghost Path who cultivated the Supreme Demon Lord, which is equivalent to having survived several tribulations of lightning. However, that is impossible now. If there were such powerful figures, they would have gone to the Great Qian Dynasty to spread their teachings long ago. My Divine Firmament Path Thunder Technique is specifically designed to subdue demons and witchcraft, and these figures in the Witchcraft and Ghost Path are no match for me."
After saying that, she squeezed Lin Yi's right hand tightly to show her support.
Lin Yi said with a smile, "Murder and arson, husband and wife in harmony."
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden rainbow transformed into a long bridge, carrying the two people and the golden spider, flying towards the depths of the wilderness.
The silvery-white shark sank into the water, and under the moonlight, only the sound of the surging waves could be heard.
………………
A small island, like a green snail, floats between the blue sky and the sea.
Several wooden buildings stood in a jungle on the island. Around the buildings, many torches were lit, and a group of natives, their bodies blackened and wearing only animal skins, were busy day and night.
Above the wooden building sat a thin, middle-aged Taoist priest dressed in a cloth robe, holding a bone staff, and with an extremely long beard.
Suddenly, the Taoist's expression changed. He had just released the celestial corpse he had created to search for food, but the connection was abruptly severed.
The middle-aged Taoist priest's eyes flashed with an eerie, green light as he said in a sinister tone, "Dare to attack my Heavenly Corpse? No matter who you are, I will make you pay the price!"
"Is that so?" The ethereal voice seemed to come from beyond the heavens, and then a silver-white flame appeared in the sky, transforming into a tall, handsome man.
Upon seeing this, the middle-aged Taoist priest suddenly waved his bone staff, pursed his lips, and let out a long howl that captivated the soul.
The local, dark-skinned laborers who were busy around them immediately knelt down and prostrated themselves in worship when they heard the Taoist priest's voice.
"Witchcraft and Ghostly Daoist, stop resisting and surrender. Your soul-capturing demonic sound is useless against me. Confess and you will be treated leniently; resist and you will be punished severely. I am not yet very skilled in manifesting my primordial spirit, and it would be a pity if I accidentally destroyed your soul."
As Lin Yi spoke, he walked down from mid-air step by step, the moonlight transforming into silvery-white steps beneath his feet.
"The soul leaves the body, and the light reveals its form. How dare you show off such a trick? You're courting death." A green light flashed in the middle-aged Taoist's eyes, and he let out another shriek.
"boom."
The earth trembled violently, dust billowed, and nothing could be seen within a radius of twenty or thirty feet. Four celestial corpses with fleshy wings on their backs burst forth from the ground, roaring in unison.
The Heavenly Corpse's appearance was ferocious, vicious, and violent... seemingly bringing together all the most terrifying words in the world.
Its entire body was covered in scales, a dark bluish-black color with a shimmering ebony sheen, clearly the kind that was impervious to blades and spears. Two fangs protruded from the corners of its mouth, and its blood-red eyes, like rubies, emitted a faint, eerie glow.
They also held steel forks in their hands, made of black iron, with specks of blood swirling around the sharp fork tips, formed from the blood that had been used to kill countless living beings.
Whoosh!
The steel forks attacked from all sides, tearing through the billowing dust, like divine weapons cleaving through the void, heading straight for Lin Yi.
"Indeed, a Taoist sect that has been passed down from ancient times has its merits. Even if it follows an evil path, it should not be underestimated."
Four steel forks flew towards him, but Lin Yi remained calm and composed. He raised his right palm like a knife and slashed through the air.
The crescent-shaped Taiyin Blade Qi landed on the four Heavenly Corpses, directly obliterating the divine consciousness that the middle-aged Taoist had entrusted to the Heavenly Corpses.
"Now do you know my methods?" Lin Yi said calmly. His originally illusory body had now become as solid as a physical object, even leaving a shadow on the ground.
"Pure Yang Thoughts, True Immortal Tribulation by Thunder." The middle-aged Taoist suddenly opened his mouth wide, as if an invisible hand had gripped his neck. Cold sweat poured down his body, and any thought of resistance in his mind was instantly extinguished.
Becoming a Ghost Immortal is a great achievement among the masters of Taoist arts. There are countless people who cultivate Taoism, but very few can become Ghost Immortals.
Among them, those who can ascend to a higher level and survive the tribulation are extremely rare.
The middle-aged Taoist priest had only cultivated to the Manifestation Realm, equivalent to a third-tier cultivator in the Great Xia World. Lin Yi could kill him in the blink of an eye.
Unless a middle-aged Taoist priest obtains a magical treasure like the Taixu Robe or the Tathagata's Kasaya, he has no right to speak with Lin Yiping and others.
At this moment, a golden rainbow flew in from afar. Lin Yi's avatar, formed from a single thought, dissipated, and his true body, holding Zen Silver Gauze's hand, appeared in the same spot with the Golden Spider.
Zen Silver Gauze looked at the trembling middle-aged Taoist priest and said, "I am Silver Shark King, one of the Eight Great Demon Immortals of the World. This is my Taoist partner, whose magical power surpasses mine. Even if the sect leader of your Witch Ghost Sect came, he would not be a match for us. Now, you must answer your questions honestly, and perhaps I can spare your life!"
The middle-aged Taoist hurriedly said, "So it's the Silver Shark Immortal! I'm just a nobody sent by the Witch Ghost Path to guard the sea route from Tianzhou to the Wilderness. The Silver Shark Immortal roams the four seas and the vast ocean, and everyone knows his fame. I will definitely tell you everything I know."

Chapter 190 Wilderness
Lin Yi asked, "Have you ever heard of a monk who escaped from the Great Zen Temple in the wilderness?"
"I'm not very clear on this, but more than 20 years ago, a group of monks did come from Tianzhou across the ocean, escaped to the wilderness, and even talked with our sect leader once. After that, they disappeared without a trace."
The middle-aged Taoist priest answered quickly.
He was not valued within the Witchcraft Sect, otherwise he wouldn't have been ostracized and sent to this island to guard the sea route. Therefore, he lacked any noble spirit of sacrificing for the sect, and instead harbored a bellyful of resentment.
Regardless of whether the man and woman in front of them were really the Silver Shark King and his wife, their lives were in the hands of others, so they naturally had to perform well in order to survive.
After asking a few more questions, Lin Yi left the island with Chan Yinsha.
Watching the golden rainbow disappear into the distant sea, the middle-aged Taoist priest breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that he had finally escaped a calamity.
With a glance around, the middle-aged Taoist priest saw the kneeling black-skinned natives and his ferocity was instantly aroused. The four Heavenly Corpses strode forward, brandishing their steel forks, and stirred up a storm of blood and gore.
"Ha ha……"
