Chapter 306: The Eldest Daughter Returns to the Yang World, the Netherworld Dragon Pearl
Chapter 306: The Eldest Daughter Returns to the Yang World, the Netherworld Dragon Pearl
"Have you never been beaten up for talking like that?" Qin Muye said, speechless.
Who wears sunglasses while eating? This is to avoid scaring others, so he covered it up.
"Ah, sorry, I didn't know there was a problem with your eyes," Fang Xing was also embarrassed, as he had just noticed the empty eye sockets where the eyeballs should be.
"What just happened? You guys are like something out of a fantasy show. Are people this middle-school nowadays?" Qin Muye preemptively asked.
Fang Xing was puzzled why Qin Muye wasn't affected by the Yin Corpse Sauce Meat, but he couldn't explain it too clearly.
"Ah, you don't know, people are like this nowadays. They just borrowed a place to film, and luckily it was a one-take. Otherwise, they would have had to do it again."
"But, brother, why don't you eat the sauce meat you were given? It smells really good," Fang Xing asked directly, without beating around the bush.
"Oh, I'm waiting for my son to come back so we can eat together. If I eat it, he won't have any left," Qin Muye said matter-of-factly.
Fang Xing's expression showed a hint of respect. Such determination, but unfortunately, he lacks the potential.
"Where is your son? Why isn't he here?" Fang Xing was a bit puzzled, as Qin Muye had been sitting alone since he entered.
"Just now, an acquaintance invited me to dinner, so I sent him over to thank the person. Too bad he missed such a big show," Qin Muye said honestly. It wasn't a big deal, and if the other party investigated, it would indeed be true.
"That is indeed a shame," Fang Xing said, though he thought it was lucky. If Qin Muye's son had been there, he would have eaten it, and then both father and son would have been affected.
"Alright, I won't disturb you while you eat," Fang Xing said, giving a signal to someone nearby.
The special forces member understood and then formed a hand seal, reciting the Yanjun Soul Summoning Spell, which he directed into Qin Muye's body.
The person was very measured in his actions, targeting only the Shuang Ling soul to erase the memory of what had just happened and reconstruct a new one.
The same was done for the others, with an additional step to help remove the aftereffects of the Yin Corpse Sauce Meat.
Once this Yin Corpse Meat enters the stomach, it takes root and gradually spreads through the body, eventually merging yin and yang. The blood becomes like oil.
The Liu family would then use various artificial accidents to send these people to their deaths, and when they were cremated at the funeral home, the blood would be extracted and refined into Yin Lamp Oil.
Typically, one person could yield one drop of oil, which could provide five minutes of light for the Yin Lamp. In terrifying situations, the consumption would be faster.
Of course, there were differences between different types of lamp oil. Yin Corpse Lamp Oil was the cheapest and thus the least effective.
Each time the Liu family crossed over to the netherworld, they used human lives to buy time.
They had been dealt with several times, and this time, it was unclear what happened in the netherworld that made them dare to act in Jingdu.
Soon, Qingyun Residence was cleared, and the logistics personnel began the aftermath, making it seem as if nothing had happened, even altering the surveillance footage.
Qin Muye slowly got up, casually picking up his chopsticks and poking at his rice, lost in thought.
He knew the Liu family and their eldest daughter. After she died, she entered the netherworld and sank to the bottom of the Yellow Springs. Coincidentally, she encountered Qin Muye's physical body and was tainted by his Abyssal Power. She managed to crawl back to the Yang World through a rift in the abyss.
However, with the yin and yang worlds separated, she was no longer the Liu family's eldest daughter but a corrupted netherworld monster, possessing only slightly greater strength and longevity.
Later, she was reclaimed by the netherworld and her body was occupied by a long-lived netherworld spirit at the bottom of the Yellow Springs.
Now, she wanders with the entire Yellow Springs, and at any moment, she might be washed up into the human world, causing chaos.
There are actually many such corpses, netherworld spirits, and ghosts. Qin Muye didn't pay them much attention, as the netherworld has its own self-purification abilities, and all these bizarre abyssal monsters have been cleared.
Now, it seems only the Liu family's eldest daughter remains. She was fortunate to be possessed by a netherworld spirit, making her a sort of netherworld insider, or she would have been eliminated long ago. It was a matter of chance.
However, Qin Muye felt that the Liu family wasn't looking for the eldest daughter. In his eyes, she had no value. They couldn't possibly be interested in the Abyssal Power.
'If they really are, maybe I should give them a ton?'
This thing, if used by an ordinary person, would immediately turn them into an abyssal monster.
No matter how strong they are, could they possibly be stronger than Qin Muye?
'It seems the Liu family is set on opposing me, causing me no peace.'
Qin Muye also recalled that the group he had encountered on the plane was from the Liu family.
"Ji Shan, how could he take so long to return? Could he have gotten lost?"
Qin Muye realized that it had been almost half an hour, and he should have returned much earlier.
After all, the trouble was gone; it couldn't be that he had some kind of extraordinary encounter, right?
'Has the Mandate of Heaven taken effect?'
Liu Gu, the patriarch of the Liu family, had a look of pleasant surprise. Although this journey into the netherworld didn't find his granddaughter, who was favored by the Black Abyss, it wasn't without its rewards: a Netherworld Dragon Pearl.
Creatures like dragons and netherworld dragons do not exist in this era. There are some creatures with corresponding bloodlines, such as snakes and carp, but their bloodlines are too weak. To truly reach the stage of a netherworld dragon, it would take at least a hundred years.
"This Black Abyss might have some karmic connection with my ancestors; otherwise, it wouldn't keep appearing. But why have I never encountered it before in my previous journeys into the netherworld?"
Liu Gu was not always a patriarch. Like most people, he worked his way up to become one of the world's strongest, eventually founding the Liu family.
He was from the previous era, not this one, and he endured the End Law Era through self-sealing.
Now, to climb to even greater heights again, resources are scarce. Since it is still the early stage, many spiritual materials in the Yang World are just beginning to grow. To truly reach the peak, it would take several hundred years of development to enter the golden age of cultivation.
At this stage, obtaining a Netherworld Dragon Pearl is a tremendous blessing, greatly aiding in the restoration of his strength.
To obtain high-quality resources, one must enter the netherworld, where not only dangers but also treasures that have existed for countless years can be found.
However, using a Netherworld Dragon Pearl requires a process of refinement.
The Netherworld Dragon Pearl has various uses, not just for restoring strength. Whether for crafting magical treasures or refining elixirs, it has extremely high value.
Even in his prime, he never obtained such a complete Netherworld Dragon Pearl.
It is said that this Netherworld Dragon Pearl was blasted out of the bottom of the Yellow Springs by the Black Abyss's passing, landing directly on the netherworld boat, a true gift from the heavens.
"This seems to contain a trace of Black Abyss power, so the refinement process will be quite troublesome," Liu Gu said after a careful inspection, his expression grave.
The Black Abyss is a terrifying existence. His granddaughter, who had crawled back from the netherworld, transformed from a beginner cultivator into a more terrifying netherworld ghost than he was. If he hadn't sent her back to the netherworld, the Liu family would have already been destroyed.
But it was then that he developed a greedy desire for the Black Abyss. If he could master it, he wouldn't have to fear the authorities and could even become an eternal emperor.
"Ancestor, there's trouble. The netherworld corpse was intercepted by the authorities, and even Liu Huang was captured," the head of the Liu family, Liu Zhi, hurriedly reported.
Liu Gu's brows furrowed, and he said, "Worthless. How could such a minor task go wrong? What was the reason?"
"They were caught in Jingdu while refining the Yin Corpse Lamp Oil. It seems someone resisted the temptation of the Yin Corpse Sauce Meat, causing the problem," Liu Zhi knew that he couldn't say the intelligence had been leaked; he had to blame it on someone else.
"Send the 'Mr. Qingyuan's Marvelous Elixir Record' to secure Liu Huang's release, and try to get the netherworld corpse back. If that fails, smuggle one from abroad. The Yin Corpse Lamp Oil must not be interrupted. This boy has lost his mind, doing such a thing in Jingdu."
"Ah, it's also my fault. If I hadn't been blinded by the Netherworld Dragon Pearl and thought about descending into the netherworld again, this wouldn't have happened."
Liu Gu said helplessly. This was an order he had given, and he couldn't let Liu Huang fend for himself. After all, he was his descendant. He could only pay a price, sending the precious elixir record as a form of exchange.
"As for the person who caused the trouble, turn him into lamp oil. Although the Liu family is not as glorious as before, we still have the power to deal with a commoner."
