Chapter 1101 – Ancient Graveyard
Chapter 1101 – The Ancient Graveyard
Seeing the devil walking the ground talking so mysteriously, Xu Chuniang came to some interest, and made assurances to him.
“Don’t worry about it, I won’t let anyone know what I know from you.”
Earth-walking Devil nodded, confirming that the shielding formation in the elegant room was on before continuing, “Do you know how the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Devil came to be?”
Xu Chuniang was slightly stunned, there had always been various claims regarding the origins and sources of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Devils.
Some said that they were the aborigines of the Extraterrestrial Realm, while others said that during the ancient times, when the Immortal and Demon Realms were not yet separated and the Immortals and Demons were mixed, they lived between the same heaven and earth as the Immortals and Demons.
But whether these claims were true or not, she wasn’t sure.
“I don’t know, could it be that the place where the Most Yin Objects were discovered is related to the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Demons?”
The Earth Walking Demon nodded, “The growth environment of the Most Yin Things is very harsh, they commonly grow in places where Yin Qi is concentrated, and that mountain range we newly discovered is an ancient graveyard, where countless corpses and bones of Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons have been buried.”
Xu Chuniang’s mind moved slightly, “You guys found something in the ancient cemetery?”
“Not bad.”
The Earth-walking Devil nodded slightly, “Have you ever felt that there are quite a few similarities between the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Devils and the Blood Clan?”
The Blood Race existed in both the Immortal and Demon Realms, and was a mysterious race that specialized in the power of the bloodline, and the laws and magical abilities they comprehended were mostly related to a body’s essence blood.
While the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Devils were able to get a massive increase in strength within a short period of time after stimulating the power of their bloodline within their bodies, from this perspective, the two did have similarities.
Xu Chuniang asked without moving, “You mean that the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Devil is related to the Blood Clan?”
“Although there is currently no definitive evidence that can prove the connection between the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Devils and the Blood Race, from the discoveries made by our merchant guild in the Ancient Graveyard, the cultivation methods of the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Devils and the Blood Race are strikingly similar.”
The Earth Walking Demon frowned slightly and continued, “The Blood Race’s cultivation method, is very evil, although I don’t have much contact with the Blood Race, I have heard of their various deeds, do you know how the famous Demon King White Tooth, died?”
Xu Chuniang honestly shook her head, she didn’t know much about what had happened in the history of the Demon Realm.
“Demon King White Tooth, died at the hands of the Blood Clan, I heard that after his death, the Blood Clan held a total of three blood sacrifice ceremonies, three times forcibly summoning his reincarnated soul from the lower realms to the Demon Realm, and hardened and killed him four times, completely crushing each and every strand of his soul, and completely cutting off the path to his reincarnation!”
Speaking here, the Earth Walking Demon revealed a palpitating expression.
“As in the case of cultivators such as myself, as long as our cultivation breaks through the Human Demon Realm and achieves the true body of a Demon, we can be recognized by the Heavenly Dao, and even if we die, our souls won’t be completely extinguished, and as long as we take another trip down the path of reincarnation, we can be reincarnated.
But the Blood Clan is too scary, they kill people, they are really ruthless, only with some essence blood, they can forcibly invoke the soul, and teach people to fly away from their souls, this is also the reason why people are not willing to offend the Blood Clan.”
Xu Chuniang was a bit puzzled, “Is what you said related to the ancient graveyard of the Extra-Terrestrial Heavenly Devil?”
“Of course it’s related, the Blood Clan is not only ruthless to others, they are even more ruthless to their own people, every dead Blood Clan member will be forcibly recruited by them to come back and kill them again!
They do this because by absorbing the remnant souls of their companions, they are able to make the bloodline power in their bodies more pure! And our Chamber’s people encountered evil bone puppets and grudge demons in the ancient graveyard, and the origins of these evil things are often related to the Blood Clan.”
Xu Chuniang frowned slightly, the cultivation methods of demonic cultivators were strange, there were those that peeled the skin and pulled out the tendons, dug out the heart and refined the soul, but the cultivation methods of the Blood Clan were clearly more extreme.
“I’ve heard of Evil Bone Puppets and Grudge Demons, and it is said that they are born out of grudges and abominations, and are very difficult to deal with.” The Earth Walking Demon explained, “After the Blood Race holds a blood sacrifice ceremony to recruit their souls, they will absorb the remnants of the soul power of their fellow clansmen, and those Blood Race people who died tragically will give birth to strong resentment and hatred in the process.
As time passes, not only will these grievances and hatreds not dissipate, but they will instead gather together to generate sinister monsters such as Evil Bone Puppets and Grudge Demons.”
After listening to the Earth Walking Demon’s explanation, Xu Chuniang fell silent, Evil Bone Puppets and Grudge Demons were indeed very difficult to deal with, even if a Demon King level powerhouse inadvertently messed with them, it would still be troublesome.
“Then what is the current attitude of your Chamber of Commerce towards that ancient graveyard?”
“Just the day before yesterday, our Chamber of Commerce has already given notice of its determination to evacuate that ancient graveyard, and as far as I know, it’s not just our Chamber of Commerce, the other Chambers of Commerce of its family have also made the same decision.
Although there are quite a few demonic materials growing in that ancient graveyard, with evil things like Evil Bone Puppets and Spiteful Demons around, we have lost a lot of manpower, and the gains are far outweighed by the losses.”
The Earth Walking Demon cautiously said, “In fact, these insider information, as a Chamber of Commerce secret by definition I can’t disclose to the outside world, but you insisted on going, I can’t just watch you wade into danger, so I can only selectively disclose a part of the news to you.
You mustn’t let the wind out, or else I’m afraid there’s no place for me in Upright Abyss City.”
Xu Chuniang nodded solemnly, “I understand, thank you for telling me this, I’ll keep this favor.”
The strength of the merchant guilds was very strong, and more importantly, they had extremely comprehensive magical weapons and magical treasures for dealing with all sorts of emergencies, and the ancient graveyard that even the five major merchant guilds shunned, the level of ferocity within it could be imagined.
Going deep into it for a bit of news was indeed a bit risky.
“It’s good that you understand.”
Seeing Xu Chuniang dismiss the idea of going to the Ancient Graveyard, the Earth-walking Demon breathed a sigh of relief.
“Actually, if you’re not poor in magic crystals, I suggest you wait for more time in the middle of Abyssal City; although the Most Yin Objects are scarce, there’s still a chance of encountering them at auctions every few years.”
“Okay.”
In the end, Xu Chuniang recognized the Earth-walking Demon’s words and resolved to wait for some more time in the Profound City.
Anyway, back then, the old man from the Soul Sorcerer Clan had said that breaking the second seal would require her to have the cultivation of the Earth Demon After Realm, in addition to the nine Heavenly Demon grade supreme yin objects.
These years, she had been busy nurturing her soul, and her cultivation was still at the beginning of the Earth Demon realm, so it was good for her to cultivate for a longer period of time in the Abyssal City.
However, she had another matter to attend to this time, besides the Most Yin Object.
“What happened to the matter I asked you to help with last time?”
The Earth-walking Demon returned to his senses, and although he didn’t know why, Xu Chuniang would target a Human Demon Realm female demon, he had the good sense not to say anything more and only said.
“She, a Human Demon Realm cultivator, was already having a hard time outside of the domain, and as Long Yu’s disappearance grew longer and longer, her situation became more and more difficult.
Half a year ago, I borrowed the name of the Chamber of Commerce to throw an olive branch to her, and she was indeed ecstatic and agreed to my invitation without hesitation.”
