These skulls were almost identical to what Jiang Ning saw in the woods outside the mural.

Could it be that the people who set up the barrier in the tiankeng are people from the evil spirit tribe?

"Fire arrows!" the Lord Commander gave the order, and countless arrows were shot from the city wall, heading towards the skeleton army below.

Special runes were painted on the arrows. The moment the arrow tip touched the skull, the runes exploded instantly, directly blowing the skull into ashes.

Jiang Ning saw on the city wall that the skulls that could be blown to ashes by arrows were not stronger than the spiritual realm.Once they exceed the spiritual realm, the explosion of these runes will not cause any harm to them.

By the time the arrows were released, there were no spirit-body skulls left on the field.The remaining skulls are all above the spiritual realm, and arrows are useless against them.

"Go!" Gu Qingyu gave the order, drew his sword, and rushed out of the city gate with his army.

Jiang Ning and Ling Chuge were also among them.

Although Jiang Ning's current strength is at the fifth level of the Spiritual Void Realm, there are many skulls on the battlefield that are stronger than her. When a fight begins, Jiang Ning has to devote all his attention.

Not only Jiang Ning, but Ling Chuge was also entangled by a skull in the spiritual realm.

Looking at Gu Qingyu again, she has the strength of the Spirit Cave Realm, and her green spiritual power is as powerful as a bamboo. None of the skulls present is her opponent.

Gu Qingyu directly cut his way through the pile of skulls, pointing the tip of his sword directly at the people of the Evil Spirit Clan.

Several evil spirits were unable to dodge and were killed by Gu Qingyu's sword.

With the death of the manipulator behind them, the group of skulls they corresponded to also lost the ability to move, falling apart on the spot and turning into a pile of ordinary human bones.

Just when the human race gained the upper hand, an old man suddenly appeared in the evil spirit race.

"Ha, Gu Qingyu, I underestimated you."

The old man opened his fingers and turned his palms toward the ground. A steady stream of black energy emerged from his palms, and the black energy immediately spread to the entire battlefield.

Jiang Ning noticed that the black energy did not come towards them, but rushed into the bodies of those who died in the battle.

After the black energy poured into the corpse, the originally lifeless corpse suddenly stumbled to its feet. The skin on the body seemed to be corroded and began to fall off. After a while, only the skeleton was left on the corpse. After the skeleton absorbed the black energy, Gradually emit a faint blue light.

this!It’s the Evil Spirit Tribe’s unique Corpse Control Curse!

The comrade who died in the battle instantly became the enemy. Even though the opponent was still wearing the same armor as himself, he had to face the enemy with his weapons.

"Be careful around you!" Gu Qingyu reminded everyone loudly, and raised his sword to attack the old man.

Unexpectedly, the old man was very strong and easily dodged Gu Qingyu's attack.Then he controlled a skull that was also in the spirit cave realm to fight Gu Qingyu.

Upon careful observation, it is not difficult to find that the spiritual color of the skull is a bit darker than that of Gu Qingyu.

Gu Qingyu immediately fought fiercely with him.

Gu Qingyu was held back, and then the commander took action.

With a swing of the long knife, a deep ravine was left on the ground, and the skulls along the way were turned into ashes.

The Lord Commander directly attacked the old man of the Evil Spirit Tribe. Unexpectedly, the old man's strength was as strong as that of the Lord Commander.The two of them fought together, unable to tell the difference for a moment.

Fortunately, at this time, Gu Qingyu eliminated the skulls she was fighting with and immediately rushed to the gang leader to lead them.

Two against one, the old man from the Evil Spirit Tribe could no longer hold on any longer and immediately called on the Evil Spirit Tribe to retreat, leaving some skulls behind.

In this battle, the human race wins.

Jiang Ning and Ling Chuge also saw the Evil Spirit Clan's Corpse Control Curse for the first time.

That night, the two went out to meet again.

"Did you see the Evil Spirit Tribe's attack today?" Jiang Ning asked directly as soon as they met.

Ling Chuge nodded, "After today's battle, I asked other people that the black energy is called the Corpse Control Curse, and it is a secret method unique to the Evil Spirit Tribe. According to legend, people from the Evil Spirit Tribe will have something in their bodies before they are 20 years old. When black energy appears, if you pour the black energy into the corpse, you can use the corpse for your own use."

"What if it is poured into a living person's body?" Jiang Ning asked.

"I've also asked about this. They don't know very well, but one thing is certain, that is, the black energy will only benefit the host himself." Ling Chuge said.

If the black energy enters a body other than its owner, it will definitely cause damage to that body, whether alive or dead.

"This way, we can rule out the possibility that Gu Qingyu actively introduced black energy into his body." Jiang Ning said.

"Then another possibility arises." Ling Chuge boldly guessed, "The black energy appearing in Gu Qingyu's body may be her own."

"You mean, she might be from the Evil Spirit Clan? She doesn't even know it herself?" Jiang Ning was shocked by this guess.

"It's possible. After all, before the people of the Evil Spirit Clan awakened to the Corpse Controlling Curse, they looked no different from ordinary people."

"If this is really the case, then the identity of Gu Qingyu's mother must be carefully investigated." Jiang Ning said solemnly.

Given the age of the Gu family head, if he was really an evil spirit clan, he would have been exposed long ago, so if he could be eliminated, then only Gu Qingyu's mother would be left.

In the past month, she learned a lot about Gu Qingyu at the Gu family, but she knew very little about Gu Qingyu's mother who died young.

"This is not difficult." Ling Chuge said, "The Xia family has a special intelligence agency. I will write a letter back and ask them to check it. The results will be available within a month."

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you." Jiang Ning said, "I will always pay attention to Gu Qingyu."

After exchanging information, the two went back to their tents.

As soon as Jiang Ning returned to the tent, he heard the quarrel between Yun Qing and Lu Qi coming from inside. To be precise, it was Yun Qing unilaterally scolding Lu Qi.

"Why, don't you really like to follow the lady? Why don't you participate in the battle with the evil spirits today!"

"Don't you usually like to be in the limelight in front of the lady? Why are you so honest today? Isn't it because you are afraid of death?"

Yun Qing kept talking, but Lu Qi remained silent, immersed in doing his own thing. I don't know if he listened.

"Yun Qing, it was Miss who prevented Lu Qi from going to the battlefield." Jiang Ning said.

"I know, after all, his cultivation level is not even in the spiritual realm. He went to the battlefield just to give corpses to the evil spirit clan for nothing." Yun Qing said without mercy.

"I will reach the spiritual realm as soon as possible." Lu Qi was silent for a long time and finally spoke.

"By the time you reach the Lingxu Realm, the Evil Spirit Tribe will have been wiped out by Miss." Yun Qing rolled her eyes and said with disdain.

"As you are, you can only do boring work. When the lady is in real danger and needs help, what use will you have?" Thinking this way, Yun Qing felt much better.

No matter how Lu Qi tried to please the young lady, she and Yun Xiang were still the only ones who could accompany the young lady on the battlefield during the expedition.
