Only then did they understand why the Nine Yang Sect had expended such great efforts to undertake this endeavor.

Their aim was likely to eradicate the Yin souls within their sphere of influence, so that even if upheaval arose later, the Nine Yang Sect could swiftly respond.

Because only in this manner could the Nine Yang Sect ensure that there were no more traces of Yin souls.

As those who had been driven from their ancestral land to the Canghai Realm by Yin souls.

The Nine Yang Sect's hatred toward Yin souls is unimaginable to ordinary cultivators.

Surely.

The other Holy Lands that fled from the Sky Blue Realm to this realm feel the same way.

For these Holy Lands that fled from the Sky Blue Realm.

Yin souls are absolutely a terrifying memory etched into their spirits.

Naturally, it's no wonder they would act in such a manner.

Thoughts of the regions in the Sky Blue Realm heavily tainted by Yin Qi flashed through his mind.

He Song sighed inwardly.

Yin souls, truly a blight upon the world.

With these thoughts in his heart, He Song quickly returned to Qingyou Valley with the other puppets.

And after another round of careful preparation.

With the departure of several other Integration Puppets.

The Integration Puppet that He Song controlled took its place at the Sect Gate of Qingyou Valley.

However, in secret.

The number of Integration Puppets within the Sect Gate of Qingyou Valley had increased substantially.

The additional Integration Puppets barely escaped conscription by other Holy Lands, and had thus fled together.

Initially, He Song had no intention of placing his puppets in harm's way.

But as these puppets returned one by one.

He Song's heart gradually settled.

At least.

The number of Integration Puppets within Qingyou Valley had now reached several.

In this way, even if an Integration Yin Soul arrived, He Song could directly command the puppets to slay it.

Integration Yin Souls.

According to Nine Yang Sect's records, likely carried many treasures as well.

Furthermore, the contribution value earned from defeating an Integration Yin Soul was likely substantial.

Thinking thus.

The frustration He Song felt over these puppets' return dissipated considerably.

Nonetheless, since Qingyou Valley's area of influence needed He Song to defend it.

The next logical step was to command the surrounding other Integration Sects to cooperate in tracking the movements of Yin souls.

With this thought in mind, the Integration Puppet stationed in Qingyou Valley under He Song's command quickly sent out three messages to the surrounding three Integration forces.

These three Integration forces, along with Qingyou Valley, were places He Song needed to safeguard.

Sending messages to these three forces and inviting the Integration Cultivators within them to discuss upcoming matters was certainly necessary.

With such thoughts.

After waiting a short while.

He Song sensed the three Integration auras suddenly appearing within the Sect Gate of Qingyou Valley.

Evidently, the three arrived together, having used the Teleportation Array to simultaneously arrive at the Sect Gate of Qingyou Valley.

Nevertheless, upon sensing this, He Song did not go forth to greet them.

Instead, he commanded another puppet to welcome the three.

And promptly escorted them to his presence.

Currently, as the guardian, He Song's status had slightly changed compared to before.

At this moment, the three occupied a lower position, needing to comply with He Song's arrangements, hence he maintained a certain level of formality.

If not, the subsequent search for Yin souls might not proceed smoothly.

After the trio arrived alongside another puppet.

He Song began discussing the occurrences within the Nine Yang Sect with the three.

However.

Given they arrived upon a mere letter of communication, it was clear they had some prior understanding.

Therefore, noticing their lack of surprise, He Song swiftly shifted the topic to immediate matters.

"Since the Holy Land appointed me as the guardian here."

"Then naturally, I must serve the Holy Land, ensuring everyone's safety."

"However, clearing Yin souls is not an easy task."

"With just us five, covering every aspect might prove challenging."

"Thus, the Four Sects need to dispatch disciples to investigate anomalies within our sphere of influence."

"Upon any findings, one could dispatch or report to the Upper Leader for deploying formidable cultivators to eliminate the Yin soul."

"You do realize that destroying a Yin soul earns contributions in the Holy Land, correct?"

"If enough Yin souls are destroyed, these contributions could potentially be exchanged for legacy items within the Holy Land."

"Whether they are cultivation skills that could be handed down or treasures that enhance sect strength, they exist within."

"Please weigh the benefits yourselves."

"However, should anyone dare to be negligent, bringing chaos to my station,"

"You should not blame me for joining allies to demand accountability!"

"This time, I am stationed here with three other Integration allies, so I hope everyone remains diligent."

"..."

Subsequently, He Song shared further details.

Primarily focusing on the cleanup of Yin souls and various precautions.

Stating that if any insurmountable issues arose, immediate contact was essential.

Only thus could the sect's entire life be safeguarded.

Yin souls, capable of exterminating entire sects with ease.

Approaching the matter cautiously is prudent.

After the three sect masters departed.

He Song exhaled slightly, relieved.

Still, He Song did not fully trust the three sect masters.

He would still dispatch disciples to investigate the situation within their sects' sphere of influence.

Uniting with allies in facing unforeseen troubles was a prospect He Song could not ignore.

As these matters settled.

Having ordered Qingyou Valley's disciples to fan out and seek traces of Yin souls.

He Song departed from the Sect Gate, beginning his patrol within Qingyou Valley's sphere of influence.

Truth be told, He Song's curiosity regarding Yin souls was intriguing.

Though familiar with Yin souls through the Nine Yang Sect's records.

He had never truly encountered one.

Nor had his puppets in the Sky Blue Realm ever crossed paths with any Yin soul.

As if.

The Sky Blue Realm was wholly enveloped in Yin Qi, causing the Yin souls to have already vacated the realm.

Therefore, He Song's current purpose outside was to scout for a Yin soul and closely observe it.

Thus, should he someday face powerful Yin souls, he would not be caught unprepared.

With these thoughts, after concealing himself, He Song swiftly began his search within Qingyou Valley's sphere of influence.

Due to He Song reaching the Integration Realm.

The areas detectable via his divine sense had significantly expanded.

In such circumstances, he need not appear, yet could survey from afar without anyone noticing.

Consequently, He Song's search for Yin souls accelerated considerably.

In this efficient search, with Yin souls already present in Nine Yang Sect's sphere of influence.

With diligent searching, He Song finally discovered a Yin soul.

This Yin soul was not particularly strong.

At most, it reached the Deity Transforming level.

However, in the Canghai Realm, Deity Transforming cultivators were abundant.

Thus, after He Song observed this Deity Transforming Yin Soul.

He saw a Deity Transforming cultivator emerge to attack the Yin Soul.

He Song did not recognize this Deity Transforming cultivator.

Yet the robes worn were those of a disciple of Qingyou Valley.
