The oxygen in the cave was becoming thinner and thinner, and his consciousness was peeling off his body bit by bit, and his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier. He knew very clearly that once he closed his eyes, he would not be able to open them anymore.

The dense smoke had already filled the cave. If it was an ordinary person, they would have fainted long ago. The reason why Tang Yin could still endure was because he relied on his extremely strong willpower and survival instinct.

He did not notice that the blood that had flowed out of the wound on his shoulder did not disappear after falling to the ground. Instead, it flowed towards the ground not far away, as if pulled by some kind of suction force.

Just as Tang Yin could not even maintain his sitting posture and his body was on the verge of collapse, he suddenly felt the ground beneath his butt shake.

He wasn't sure, because his consciousness was growing blurry, and it could be an illusion.

"Bam!"

A muffled sound suddenly came out from the silent cave. Tang Yin was shocked, he struggled to lift his eyes and looked towards the sound.

After a couple of glances, he wondered if his eyes had been blinded by the smoke. Seeing such a strange sight, he couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his eyes vigorously. When he looked again, his eyes gradually widened, and his mouth also subconsciously opened slowly.

Not far away from him, an arm stretched out from beneath the ground. Rather than an arm, it was more like a hand bone. Perhaps it was too old, the hand bone had already turned dark brown, and there was a black, fleshy connection between the bones.

In a black hole that no one could possibly have discovered, an arm suddenly extended out from underground. This was extremely bizarre, Tang Yin's scalp was numb, and his hair was standing straight up.

"Crack, crack ~ ~"

Cracks began to appear on the ground around his arms, and then the cracks grew larger and larger. The ground seemed to be breathing, rising and falling.

Tang Yin, who was within reach, looked on dumbfoundedly. He had the urge to escape, but his body seemed to have suddenly left his side. He was unable to move, he could only sit there in a daze.

"Phew!" "Hualala!"

Abruptly, the rocks on the ground were bounced off, and a skeleton with no skin but dried meat sat up from the ground. Although the cave was full of smoke, Tang Yin seemed to still be able to smell a rotten smell.

Ghost … Is … Is it a ghost?!

Tang Yin had never believed in the existence of ghosts. He had killed so many people, and countless souls died under the blade, but none of the ghosts had ever sought him out. But now, he could not explain it clearly.

Huala, huala!

The withered skeleton slowly stood up from the ground, and Tang Yin's heartbeat became faster and faster. He heard the sound of the skeleton moving its bones, and saw the skeleton's head slowly turning towards him.

When the two red lights landed on Tang Yin's face, he seemed to have forgotten to breathe. A formless pressure suddenly attacked him, as though it was going to burst his body into pieces.

The originally lifeless skeleton now had life, and walked towards Tang Yin step by step.

Tang Yin was unable to move his body. He could only watch as the skeleton approached him, bent its body down, and moved its head close to him. That fleshless, sinister and terrifying face almost touched his own face.

Without any warning, a blinding light suddenly shot out from between the skeleton's eyebrows, straight into the center of Tang Yin's forehead. The latter only felt a buzzing sound coming from his head, then his vision turned black, as he did not know what was going on.

He loved that woman, that woman named Crystal.

He could do everything for her, even his own life.

For her, he fought a duel with five of his peak Spirit Cultivator of Light s in the Xian Yin Valley.

That battle could be considered as the pinnacle of battle between the Light and the Dark Element.

In the end, neither side won and in the end, both sides suffered heavy injuries.

He did not seek her gratitude nor did he seek her return, but the irony was that Crystal had betrayed him. She had betrayed his promise to the Alliance and the Sea, and after he had done everything for her, she had actually found Xuanzhao and mercilessly killed him, who was severely injured.

He would never forget Xuan Jiuzi's wild laughter in front of him, as well as his intimate attitude with Crystal.

In the dream, Tang Yin could clearly feel the pain before Yan Lie's death. It was not the pain of his body, but the pain inside his heart, the pain that was imprinted on his soul.

Tang Yin suddenly opened his eyes and mumbled out this familiar and unfamiliar name.

Yan Lie might have died, but before he died, he used the Death Sacrifice of the Dark Type Martial Arts. The Death Sacrifice could be considered the only donation-type skill in the dark type of martial arts. Upon encountering blood, it would be reborn and fuse with the life closest to it, allowing the opponent to transfer his memories and inherit his abilities.

Five hundred years later, the intense battle in the Salty Yin Mountain Valley caused over three thousand soldiers of the Feng Country to die miserably. The blood of the soldiers roused Yan Lie, and Tang Yin, the only one who survived but was close to him, naturally became his reincarnation. Unfortunately, his spirit energy was exhausted and Tang Yin did not inherit much spirit energy.

When Tang Yin woke up, Yan Lie's skeleton had already disappeared. It had turned into spirit energy and was absorbed by him when he was unconscious.

Although he did not get much spirit energy, Yan Lie's memories had already benefited him greatly. At the very least, he now understood the world he was living in.

The nation he was in was known as the Haotian, and was established in the capital Shang Jing. Within the Haotian Empire, there were nine great dukedoms, namely Zhen Zhen, Yu, Mo, Feng, Ning, An, Chuan, Huan, and Divine Pool. After Yin Chi had been established for two hundred years, the authority of the central emperor gradually weakened, and the local dukes' influence greatly increased.

However, this area of the Salty Yin Mountain was not part of the territory of the Feng Country.

With Yan Lie's memories, it was equivalent to allowing Tang Yin and Yan Lie, two completely unrelated people, to become one. However, this did not make Tang Yin feel relaxed, but instead made his heart feel even heavier.

Firstly, he understood why he would have to go through all these unfathomable things, and it was because for some reason, he suddenly came to this strange and mysterious world from the world he lived in. Worse, he couldn't find a way to return. He hated Crystal's betrayal, and at the same time he couldn't help but love this woman, even though she had given him a disgrace he would never be able to wash away.

He must find the crystal!

Tang Yin suddenly sat up on the ground, the only thing he could think of was Crystal. He wanted to throw Jing's figure out of his thoughts. After all, Crystal was Yan Lie's problem and not his. However, no matter how hard he tried, a smile would always surface on Jing's face.

In the end, he could only give up and understand one thing. Yan Lie's soul had already thoroughly merged with his own soul, and the people Yan Lie cared about, the things he cared about, had also become people he cared about, things he cared about. In other words, he was both Tang Yin and Yan Lie now.

It seemed like he could only find the crystal and settle this matter here … Tang Yin muttered in his heart.

As for how he was going to solve his problem after finding the crystal, Tang Yin didn't know either. At the very least, Yan Lie loved and hated the crystal so much that he couldn't bear to hurt a single hair on her head. This was a completely different feeling that Tang Yin had never experienced before, and this feeling was also very strange to him.

With a long sigh, he recovered from his deep thoughts. Only now did he realize that the fire in the valley had already been extinguished and the thick smoke from the cave had long since disappeared. He slowly stood up, feeling exceptionally light and agile. Not only did he not feel injured, he felt even stronger than before. Even the wounds on his body had healed, and were in perfect condition.

This should be the result of absorbing spiritual energy. Tang Yin stood still and held his breath, quietly feeling the spiritual energy flowing through his body. Although it was not as much as 10% of Yan Lie's original spiritual energy, he had at least laid down the foundation, knowing that the most difficult thing to learn in a dark attributed spiritual martial art was to gain entry, which was why there were far fewer people who trained in dark attributed spiritual martial arts than in the Light.

There wasn't much spirit energy in Tang Yin's body, so he was unable to move the huge rock at the entrance of the cave. However, it was still possible to expand the size of a dog's cave. He climbed out of the cave and looked around him. In the vast valley, charred and twisted bodies were everywhere he looked. The smell of burnt flesh filled the air, making it sickening.

These corpses, were all Feng Country Warriors who had died in a foreign land. He slowly clenched his fists and bit his lip. The grief and indignation in his heart did not originate from Tang Yin, but instead, came from Yan Lie.

Fallen leaves had to return to their roots, but unfortunately, he did not have the ability to transport so many corpses back to Feng Country, nor did he have the ability to bury them on the spot.

Sigh! He let out a long sigh, steeled his heart, and ran out of the valley in large strides. He felt that if he stayed here any longer, he would go crazy.
