At this time, they had already arrived at the foot of a mountain wall. Outside a row of more than ten arched caves, there was a large group of ghosts lined up in a long queue.
"You came at an unfortunate time." Qiu Zhi said with a smile, "Three days ago, our Yinfeng Division found the hiding place of a large number of auxiliary soldiers."
"It is a natural karst cave. Although the environment is not good and there is not much food, it is very safe. Tens of thousands of auxiliary troops from the Caiyuan Division, Gongzao Division, Yanxing Division, etc. are hiding in it."
"We have been relocating for several days, and these people in front of us are the last batch of people."
"General Hu used to receive you personally, but now there are too many people, so I'm afraid you won't be able to see him."
Tens of thousands of ghosts? Cave?
Chen Mu suddenly realized.
No wonder he didn’t find many scattered ghosts after expanding the scope.
Qiu Zhi looked around and led everyone to a team with fewer people on the edge.
"No matter where you came from before, you will all be incorporated into our Yinfeng tribe from now on." After seeing everyone lined up in an orderly manner, Qiu Zhi came up to Chen Mu and Bai Qing and spoke solemnly.
"I'm sure you guys know the dangers of Nether Devil Heaven better than I do."
"Although this narrow strip of sky is safe, it is still unknown whether we will be attacked by monsters."
"As a member of the Yinfeng tribe, we have to do our part."
Here he comes. Hu Cheng from the Yinfeng tribe is making such a big fuss to rescue the Yin spirits, but his selfish nature is different from what Shen Yan introduced.
He really did want something!
Chen Mu's heart tightened.
Shen Yan said that Hu Cheng would most likely offer a blood sacrifice to the underworld to initiate the Yellow Springs Crossing. Could he be trying to use us as sacrifices?
Hmm...how about sneaking into Qiandeng City tonight and then running away immediately?
"The Yinfeng tribe protects our safety, but if you give us an order, we will go through fire and water without hesitation." Chen Mu said it sincerely.
"It's not that serious." Qiu Zhi smiled with relief.
"All you need to do is practice a spell and provide some divine power."
This request...why does it sound so familiar?
Then he saw Qiu Zhi take out a black leather scroll from his arms, and three large, ancient characters immediately came into view.
Carrying the Mountain Sutra?
Chen Mu felt relieved immediately.
It seems that there is no need to run for the time being.

Chapter 469 Migration
A giant tree like a steep mountain stands alone among the mountains.
Its twisted roots grow wildly underground, and the mounds of earth it pushes up look like hills. Its crown pierces through the mist, standing high in the clouds.
On a thick branch, Lan Zhang leaned against the tree trunk, with his right leg stretched out and his left leg resting on the edge of the branch.
In the distant mountains, the roars of animals and the chirping of birds could be heard one after another. Lan Zhang squinted his eyes and watched quietly.
The bark of the tree beside me was slowly being stained by dark shadows like the dry and cracked earth. The next moment, countless eyes of different sizes suddenly appeared.
"The ghosts have been received by Hu Cheng." The blind boy's voice was full of hesitation: "Can they really sneak into the main camp of Jigu City?"
"Yes..." Lan Zhang said lazily, "You must have faith in my Danshan Sutra."
"Hu Cheng will gather everyone's strength and change the auxiliary soldiers' aura, so that he can conceal the aura of the Blood God Son."
He stretched out his right hand, and a blood-red cloud gathered. A small black flag and a gray-white archway appeared in the blood-red mist.
Looking at the soul-calling flag that had accompanied him for decades, Lan Zhang remained silent.
After a while, he raised his hand and threw it far into the mountains.
"Aren't you afraid that Shen Yan will steal the Ghost Gate?"
"He..."
"He injured his origin when he escaped before, and he can't take away the ghost gate by himself."
"Besides, now that Hu Cheng has practiced Danshan Sutra, in order to make further progress, whoever stands in his way will be his mortal enemy, even if that person is the former military supervisor Shen Yan!"
……
In the early morning, in a cave in the lower middle part of the cliff in the Yitiantian mountain stream.
"Brother Chen, how is your practice of Danshan Sutra going?" Qiu Zhi asked with some anticipation.
This was the fifth day that Chen Mu had come to the Yinfeng Division. Since he settled down, this General Qiu Zhi would come to check on his progress in practicing the Danshan Sutra every day.
According to Shen Yan, Hu Cheng is likely to capture monsters and sacrifice blood to Wangchuan, so as to launch Huangquan Ferry to leave the Netherworld. The Danshan Sutra combined force secret method is indeed powerful, but the monsters in the Netherworld are not simple either. Large-scale hunting and fighting will inevitably lead to casualties.
Thinking of this, Chen Mu glanced at the Danshan Sutra on the gray wall, which already had more than 5,000 experience points, and shook his head with shame on his face: "My talent is dull, and I still haven't made any progress."
"But there is also good news." He showed an excited look on his face: "After Brother Qiu's explanation yesterday, I feel that I have found inspiration. Maybe I can practice it tomorrow."
Qiu Zhi's face twitched.
I've heard this three times, do you think I still believe it?
He finally realized that the guy in front of him hadn't practiced seriously at all!
Didn’t you say you would go through fire and water?
Slippery...
Qiu Zhi shook his head and sighed: "Brother Chen should pay more attention."
"I got the news from above that we will have to move soon. If we don't know the Danshan Sutra and can't fly together, I'm afraid we will be left behind in the narrow gap."
"How could this be possible!" Chen Mu pretended to be shocked, and immediately began to humbly ask for advice on the difficult questions in the Danshan Sutra. He pretended for a long time before sending Qiu Zhi away.
Standing at the entrance of the cave, looking at the cliff that was hollowed out like a honeycomb, Chen Mu couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Although I know that this might be Qiu Zhi's alarmist talk to scare people, what if it is true? I still have to practice Hu Cheng's version of Danshan Jing.
……
"The blood sacrifice to Wangchuan can indeed activate Huangquan Ferry, but without the protection of Ghost Gate, there is a risk of falling into the void."
Late at night, in Qiandeng City, Shen Yan threatened Chen Mu with a calm face.
"Given Hu Cheng's selfish character, it's not safe to entrust your safety to him."
Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh when he heard that.
"Not to mention the risks of moving the void, the blood sacrifice to the Forgotten River requires sacrifices, and the job of capturing the monsters must be done by you."
"Do you like killing and fighting?" Shen Yan stared at Chen Mu seriously.
"I'm such a peaceful person, how could I possibly like her!" Chen Mu immediately shook his head.
"I don't like it either." Shen Yan said sincerely, "So...it's better for us to summon the Ghost Gate ourselves."
I believed your ghost!
If this really were to bring me to the gates of hell, I'd probably be even less safe!
Chen Mu glanced at Shen Yan calmly, and a gray wall appeared before his eyes.
Yumen Curse: 1135/10000/Level ;
Recently, he has been secretly practicing, and finally completed the second level of Yumen Curse. Most of the insights that Gray Wall has given recently are related to Huangquandu, but his control over Ghost Gate Pass is definitely not as good as Shen Yan's.
Facing Shen Yan's gaze, Chen Mu nodded solemnly, as if he agreed very much.
But he had made up his mind that unless his experience with Yumen Curse was higher than that of Old Ghost Shen, he would never summon the Ghost Gate!
"I still have to work on the Yumen Curse. It would be best if I could surpass Shen Yan before the Yinfeng Tribe takes action."
"otherwise……"
"Otherwise, I can only stay in the Yinfeng tribe and adapt to circumstances."
……
Seven days later.
The sky above the narrow gap was covered with dark clouds, and pale green flames were surging in the clouds. Chen Mu was surrounded by black mist, hiding quietly in the clouds.
He didn't expect that the Yinfeng tribe would actually move as they said.
Looking down, there are still some scattered ghosts left in the mountain stream.
There is a primary and secondary distinction in the practice of Danshan Sutra, but as an auxiliary role that provides divine power, it is actually not difficult to just adjust your own Qi to sense the mountain seal.
The evil spirits left in the mountain stream were probably afraid of the risk of joining forces, so they delayed deliberately, but they didn't expect that the Yinfeng Tribe would really leave as soon as they said they would.
At this moment, no matter how they shouted, the black cloud slowly accelerated, and with a strange howl, it quickly moved away from the sky.
After setting off, the dark clouds that covered the sky and the sun kept flying towards a certain direction.
Most of the monsters were too oppressed by the huge black cloud's momentum to dare to show their heads, but some ferocious monsters responded by soaring into the sky to attack the black cloud.
Chen Mu was worried at first, but when he saw those monsters being burned to ashes by the secret method of the Fire Bell, Chen Mu gradually felt relieved.
At this moment, the Yinfeng Division has gathered almost 80% of the auxiliary troops of the Haizi Camp. All the Yin spirits' divine power is gathered together. Although they cannot run rampant, they are indeed very safe at the edge of the Nether Demon Heaven.
Even if we encounter a large group of red-eyed water monkeys, we still can't defeat them.
But escaping safely is not difficult.
……
Not long after noon, the black clouds flew into the mountains. At a certain moment, Chen Mu suddenly felt that the Yin Spirit power that was originally being slowly withdrawn suddenly accelerated.
Immediately afterwards, dense balls of fire fell like heavy rain, and the mountains were suddenly filled with pale green flames.
A large group of monsters with flaming fangs and two sharp horns pointing to the sky, looking like both sheep and pigs, appeared in the sea of fire.
Most of these monsters were as tall as two or three stories, with black fur all over their bodies like sharp arrows, whizzing towards the sky, and from time to time they spewed out black and red fireballs. Unfortunately, the black clouds were too high, and the seemingly fierce counterattack had no effect at all.
After a few moments of violent attack, the group of monsters quickly fled from the sea of fire, dived into the mountains and disappeared.
