章節 85: Chapter 85: Yin Spirit Appears In Feihua City
Why did the star forces suddenly descend upon the Absolute Beginning Star Domain?
Mei Kai was puzzled as he turned to his daughter, Mei Rong, and asked, "Rong, how did you come to know such a powerful senior?"
Mei Kai couldn't help but be astounded by his daughter's luck. To meet someone of such strength was nothing short of a miracle.
Mei Rong replied, "Father, he's the patriarch of a small family. He and his clan members visited the restaurant I run, and we became acquainted that way."
"A small family's patriarch? How could that be possible?" Ye Kai was shocked. How could someone so powerful lead a small family? Was it a hidden or ancient clan?
"It's true," Mei Rong insisted. "Why would I lie to you? His family doesn't have many strong members. The most powerful among them now is only at the Soul formation realm. Their family was nearly wiped out recently. This senior is the son of the previous patriarch and was appointed as the clan leader during that crisis. Since then, their family has begun to change."
Upon hearing Mei Rong's explanation, Mei Kai was even more astonished. He had thought that this senior was an ancient being who had lived for countless years, but he turned out to be just a young man.
"Unbelievable! It seems this senior possesses unimaginable talent, otherwise he wouldn't have achieved such strength at such a young age," Mei Kai exclaimed. Even though the senior was not as old as he initially thought, Mei Kai still treated him with utmost respect.
"Yes, father, there really are geniuses in this world who can reach heights that we could only dream of in a short period. By the way, have you seen the Heavenly Dao Gold List?" Mei Rong asked, a glimmer of excitement in her eyes.
"I have," Mei Kai nodded. "If I'm not mistaken, this senior might just be the one ranked first on the Heavenly Dao Gold List."
Everything that the senior had accomplished in the Emperor's Fallen Territory was more than enough to justify his position at the top of the list.
After some time, Mei Kai sighed in relief. "In any case, the problem with Linglong has been resolved perfectly. Now, let's prepare to leave Zhongzhou."
"Leave Zhongzhou? But why?" Ye Rong asked in confusion.
"I'm worried that the secret of our Mei family possessing the Emperor Scripture and Emperor Weapon might be exposed. If it gets out and reaches the Ziwei Holy Land, we could be in serious trouble," Ye Kai explained. Although he had recently advanced to Saint level, he knew it was still not enough to stand against a powerful force like the Holy Land. For the sake of safety, he believed they had to leave Zhongzhou.
"But where will we go?" Mei Rong inquired.
"To the Absolute Beginning Star Domain," Mei Kai responded. "Didn't you say that the senior's family is there? Wherever he is, it's the safest place."
Meanwhile, Xian Yue sat in his bronze chariot, sipping wine as he observed the Immortal Dao puppet in front of him. He added an Immortal Crystal from the system to the puppet's energy core, causing the ancient Immortal Dao runes inscribed on it to light up and come to life.
"It works! It's not broken after all!" Xian Yue's eyes lit up with excitement. Once a cultivator imprinted their spiritual brand on the puppet, they could control it, unleashing its full combat potential.
"The problem is, no one in the family is strong enough to control these puppets," Xian Yue sighed. The puppets required immense divine consciousness to operate, something his family currently lacked.
"For now, they'll just be decoration," he said, chuckling to himself. The sight of the puppet reminded him of the mecha from his previous life on Earth, sparking a nostalgic feeling.
Suddenly, the system's voice rang out: "The system has automatically signed in. Congratulations, host, for acquiring the Emperor Grade technique: Primordial Origin!"
"An Emperor Grade technique? That's not bad! It's far better than those endless piles of spiritual stones and pills," Xian Yue muttered. Recently, his collection of spiritual resources had grown so vast that he almost felt bored with them. A new technique was a refreshing change.
"The family is currently practicing the Saint Grade technique that Xian Zhan left behind. This Primordial Origin Emperor Scripture will be a great addition to our collection, filling in some gaps."
Xian Yue recalled that Xian Zhan had also left the Feihua Sword Scripture, but it wasn't something just anyone could practice. The technique required forming the Feihua Sword Formation, and very few in the family were proficient with the sword, let alone capable of forming a complex formation.
But the Primordial Origin Emperor Scripture was different. It was an Emperor Grade scripture that was accessible to almost everyone with enough talent to comprehend it. It didn't require any special physical traits, making it an ideal technique for the family to practice.
"The Heavenly Emperor Holy Dragon Technique that I found in the Emperor's Death Land is also a great scripture. If I can retrieve the complete version, the family can practice it as well," Xian Yue mused. "It's also an Immortal Emperor-level technique, and having two such powerful techniques would solidify our family's foundation in this world."
Just as Xian Yue was lost in thought, preparing to return to the Eternal Divine City, the First Elder, Xian Feng, hurriedly approached him.
"Xian Yue, something strange has happened in Feihua City recently!" Xian Feng said urgently.
"What's the matter?" Xian Yue asked curiously. Feihua City was a relatively small place, and it was rare for anything truly noteworthy to happen there.
"People have been dying under strange circumstances. Their entire bodies turn pale white, drained of blood, as though they've been submerged in water for a long time. It's an eerie sight, but there are no visible wounds on their bodies," Xian Feng explained, frowning deeply.
"Has anyone in the family been affected?" Xian Yue asked, his eyes narrowing. The condition Xian Feng described sounded like a case of someone being drained of life force, something he had encountered recently.
"No, no one in the family has died. The victims are all young monks from outside the family. I don't think the culprit is very powerful, but they're operating in secret, which makes it all the more unsettling," Xian Feng replied.
"It seems like a young creature," Xian Yue chuckled, recognizing the signs of a low-level underworld being at work.
"What should we do?" Xian Feng asked.
"Send the younger generation of the family to investigate," Xian Yue replied casually. "They should be more than capable of dealing with a small fry."
"A small fry? Is that what this creature is?" Xian Feng asked, perplexed.
"It's a ghost from the underworld. Tell our people to bring it back alive if possible," Xian Yue instructed.
"Understood!" Xian Feng said, reassured now that the patriarch had given his orders.
With that settled, Xian Yue turned his attention back to his spiritual plants. Compared to the underworld creatures, nurturing his precious plants seemed far more important to him. He found an open space in the divine city, where he began to plant the spiritual plants he had recently harvested. The hills that Mei Kai had gifted him were also placed in the sacred city, merging with the landscape to enhance its natural beauty and spiritual energy.
