Chu Nan showed a trace of surprise, not expecting that the person in front of him was the Sect Leader of the Spirit Corpse Sect.

But upon seeing Chu Lingshan's dignified appearance, he felt that this fellow indeed deserved the title of Sect Leader.

This guy looked emaciated; when Chu Lingshan held him just now, Chu Nan could even feel the blood vessels and meridians beneath his skin.

This person's frail condition was unique in the Spirit Corpse Sect, so it was no surprise he became Sect Leader.

"Disciple, greets the Sect Leader." Feeling that Chu Lingshan had no intent to kill him, Chu Nan immediately bowed and greeted.

Chu Lingshan nodded satisfactorily, then said, "Awakening the Yin Evil Celestial Eye, you are almost born for Corpse Refinement; joining the Spirit Corpse Sect is the best decision of your lifetime."

The Yin Evil Celestial Eye can control Yin Evil Qi and ignore its harmful effects on the body; it's undoubtedly the most desired Celestial Eye for a Corpse Refiner.

However, awakening the Celestial Eye is extremely difficult, let alone specifically awakening the Yin Evil Celestial Eye, which is even more difficult.

If Chu Nan hadn't obtained the Celestial Eye Fruit, he wouldn't even think about awakening the Celestial Eye in the Celestial Crossing Realm.

Chu Nan did not respond; Chu Lingshan was so interested in his Yin Evil Celestial Eye, that he couldn't be sure even if he mentioned some opportunity.

"Disciple offended the Sect Leader, a crime worthy of death, I shall leave now."

With that, Chu Nan turned away, intending to escape.

"You don't need to fear me, I have no reason to harm you." Chu Lingshan also said, "Not only will I not harm you, but I will also give you opportunity, status, and future!"

Chu Nan helplessly stopped; Chu Lingshan was a Cloud Sea Realm formidable figure, and at his current level of cultivation, even using the Flowing Light Golden Crow Vehicle would not help him escape.

Too much resistance might backfire, so Chu Nan said, "I don't know what the Sect Leader needs help with, but as a disciple, I will do my utmost to assist."

Since Chu Lingshan valued the Yin Evil Celestial Eye so much, there must be a purpose for him at the moment.

Thus, Chu Nan didn't need to worry about his safety for now; he might indeed obtain the opportunity spoken of by Chu Lingshan if he cooperated well.

"You are quite astute." Chu Lingshan nodded, then led Chu Nan toward the gaseous currents at the mountaintop, speaking as they walked, "This mountain of corpses is enveloped in Yin Evil Qi, which can easily swallow and kill if one is careless."

"Without the Corpse Refining Technique, this mountain of corpses might as well be the most terrifying forbidden land in the Celestial Crossing Realm, with absolutely no value."

Regarding this statement, Chu Nan did not agree; Kui Guang had once mentioned the many wonders of Yin Evil Qi, but he was too weak to utilize them now.

Refining Spirit Corpses using Yin Evil Qi is but a rough technique; otherwise, Chu Nan wouldn't have almost mastered this ability merely by using the Yin Evil Celestial Eye.

"Does the Sect Leader want me to help you find powerful bodies for Spirit Corpse Refinement?" The mountain of corpses contained only Yin Evil Qi and bodies; Chu Nan felt these were the only things he could help with.

But Chu Lingshan shook his head, then said, "I do not need new Spirit Corpses; come with me, and you will understand when we reach the destination."

With that, Chu Lingshan grabbed Chu Nan's collar and directly flew toward the gaseous currents above.

"Chu Nan, the gaseous currents atop the mountain of corpses are good things; under each one lies a significant opportunity, though hard to obtain."

"This is the largest gaseous current on the mountain of corpses, containing the best opportunity."

"I'll take you inside; follow my orders throughout, and I assure you of an unexpected surprise!"

Chu Lingshan then produced a compass, holding it in hand, and jumped directly into the gaseous current with Chu Nan.

In that instant, the concentration of Yin Evil Qi increased more than tenfold, causing an inexplicable unease even in Chu Nan, who possessed the Yin Evil Celestial Eye.

He felt that the Yin Evil Qi here was overwhelming even for him with the Yin Evil Celestial Eye.

Luckily, Chu Lingshan's compass was exceptionally strong.

The compass emitted a milky white light, shielding them as they continued to fall.

Surrounded by darkness, Chu Nan had no idea how long they had been falling, nor how deep the gaseous current was.

As time passed, even the compass paled.

A deep pallor showed on Chu Lingshan's face as well.

Looking at the surrounding Yin Evil Qi, Chu Nan believed that without the compass's protection, he would soon be killed by the Yin Evil Qi.

Fortunately, just as the compass's light was about to vanish, the scene suddenly brightened.

Passing through a curtain of darkness, the Yin Evil Qi ahead vanished, their feet firmly landing on solid ground, and Chu Nan's heart eased.

Scanning the surroundings, Chu Nan gasped in shock.

They were now within the mountain's interior, inside a cavern.

Countless strands of Yin Evil Qi stained the rocks black, climbing up the rock walls and gathering above, then shooting skyward through the cave opening.

Following the source of the Yin Evil Qi, Chu Nan even felt his Yin Evil Celestial Eye pulsating, as if something was attracting him.

"Follow me." Chu Lingshan put away the compass and led Chu Nan deeper into the cave.

Chu Nan understood the danger here and hurriedly kept up, careful not to fall behind.

Meanwhile, he called out to Kui Guang, but for some reason, Kui Guang refused to respond, as if he never existed.

This was the first time Chu Nan encountered such a situation, making him more respectful of the site.

A place even Kui Guang avoided; it must be terrifying.

Yet Chu Lingshan dared to explore it; truly insane!

Chu Lingshan didn't understand Chu Nan's thoughts, but seeing his doubts, he said, "Don't worry, Chu Nan, I will not harm you."

"Though this place is dangerous, it is only so for ordinary Martial Artists. For you with the Yin Evil Celestial Eye, the path ahead is smooth from now on!"

Chu Nan curled his lips into a smile, not believing a single word.

Soon they reached the cavern's end, facing a massive Bronze Tomb Gate.

Yin Evil Qi continuously surged from the tomb gate's corners.

Chu Nan even saw a giant vertical eye in the gate's center.

The eye was vivid and lifelike, as if it were staring at him.

Chu Lingshan said, "Chu Nan, I've been stopped here many times; today it will stop me no longer."

"Activate your Yin Evil Celestial Eye and help me open this tomb gate!"

Chu Lingshan showed anticipation; Chu Nan knew if he couldn't open it, he might turn hostile.

Activating the Yin Evil Celestial Eye, a purple light slowly cracked open at his brow.

At the instant the Yin Evil Celestial Eye appeared, the vertical eye on the tomb gate suddenly lit up.

It released a purple light as well, resonating with Chu Nan, as if merging.

A few breaths later, as if receiving approval, accompanied by a rumbling sound, the seemingly unshakeable tomb gate slowly opened...
