The Hostile Ghost was extrely fierce, and besides eating people, it had recently gone a bit mad, even devouring quite a few of its own subordinate little ghosts.
The only reason it survived is that Dazhen's Faceless Man has been too busy lately, and this creature had been hiding in the Hengduan Mountains without coming out.
Yu Ziqing released Freedom Heaven and Lou Huai, and the two devils slightly provoked it, causing the Hostile Ghost to go into a frenzy.
It chased all the way out of the Hengduan Mountains, reaching the plains region.
The two devils took turns infiltrating it, luring the creature near the city, and then a Great Cultivator from Dazhen killed it outside the city.
When it died, the Hostile Ghost lay on the ground, seemingly crazed, writing a line with its finger.
"Within lies greatness, the naless shall fall."
Many people saw this scene.
No one knew what this sentence ant, not even the one who wrote it, nor did Yu Ziqing.
That was... perfect.
The two devils cooperated, dealing with the Hostile Ghost together, and quietly returned to Yu Ziqing's side.
"Did you sense anything?"
"No, it was very chaotic, particularly chaotic, as he himself was already sowhat out of control." Freedom Heaven shook his head.
"That guy was just a step away from going completely mad, his mind was already in turmoil." Lou Huai added.
Yu Ziqing pondered, thinking of the Mud Sea of the Muddy World he had seen in the Abyss, and the things inside it.
Perhaps these changes in the Hostile Ghost weren't directly caused by na changes; the renaming was just a trigger.
Since the Mud of the Muddied World is likely what these Hostile Ghosts, Fierce Ghosts, etc., may turn into after death.
Conversely, that thing in the Mud Sea of the Muddied World influencing the ghosts is very normal.
"Let's go, we've done what needed to be done, just wait."
Yu Ziqing quietly left, and a few days later, people from the White Water Egg organization arrived in this small town of Dazhen.
The Hostile Ghost had gone mad and lost its senses, daring to attack the city.
They were investigating this matter recently, naturally drawn to it.
Those eight words also inevitably ca to the attention of the White Water Egg organization.
Yu Ziqing wanted to first probe the Divine King, and then find a way to get information from him.
Originally, he planned to find the Mountain Lord, but unfortunately, the Mountain Lord's situation was uncertain, knowing might also an being in a sealed state.
The only person he was certain knew what the sixty-four-sided blue crystal was, was the Divine King.
Half a month later, inside the new base of the White Water Egg.
The New Five took out the Jade Scroll to et the Divine King.
He knelt on the ground, head bowed, while a painting with only a silhouette floated above the sacrificial altar.
The New Five gave a routine report of so ordinary intelligence, and then said.
"Sir had pay attention to certain special matters, and this ti there's sothing I find quite peculiar."
The New Five recounted the situation of the Evil Ghost being renad to Hostile Ghost, and continued to add.
"A few days ago, an uproar arose, I wouldn't have normally paid it much heed.
Until a few days ago, an Evil Ghost from Dazhen attacked the city.
Before that Evil Ghost's form and spirit were completely annihilated, it had gone utterly mad, and left eight words upon its death.
Within lies greatness, the naless shall fall.
Those words are exceedingly ancient, not sothing that Evil Ghost could have known.
I suspect there must be sothing fishy about this matter."
Upon hearing about the Evil Ghost's renaming and the series of changes it triggered, the Divine King suddenly beca interested.
When he heard those eight words, he abruptly turned around.
"What eight words?"
The New Five, head bowed, took out a scroll with those eight ancient words written on it.
The Divine King looked at the eight words as if his eyes were pierced by thorns, and imdiately turned his gaze away, turning his back to the New Five again, leaving only a silhouette.
"Find out how that Evil Ghost knew these eight words."
"Sir, that Evil Ghost's form and spirit have been annihilated, even its lair has been razed to the ground by an enraged Dazhen."
The New Five felt sowhat helpless, thinking, how am I supposed to find it? Have you had too much to drink?
The Divine King cald down, silencing for a mont.
"Have you been tasked before with finding a sixty-four-sided artifact containing various runes?"
"I do not know, many things were known only to No.1 of that ti," the New Five decisively blad the deceased.
"Go find it now, by any ans necessary, find this thing.
Pay special attention to those ghosts."
The New Five fell silent for a mont, instantaneously realizing many things, also understanding what he needed to do. He gritted his teeth and said.
"Forgive my incompetence, but with the organization having suffered consecutive heavy blows, it's truly beyond our capabilities with such scant clues."
The Divine King coldly looked at the New Five, but ultimately sighed internally, acknowledging that even if the thing was only buried under a thin layer of soil, it's beyond the ability of average cultivators to find it.
Such a needle in a haystack indeed seems impossible.
He was indifferent to the fate of the White Water Egg, having heard the New Five's report nurous tis about the organization's current state, acknowledging that forcing them would not make them capable.
"Go find the new emperor of Daqian, borrow the power of the Divine Dynasty to search, surely he can find it."
"This... the new emperor might simply not..." The New Five paused, seemingly fearful, lowering his head and softly saying, "Yes, I will do my best."
The surrounding scene dissipated, and the New Five carefully put away the Jade Scroll, only straightening up once it was fully resealed.
It was a bit risky, but indeed he obtained so useful information.
And this person was as stingy as ever, still arrogant, not even bothering to paint a big picture.
So, the New Five turned around and transmitted this information to Yu Ziqing.
Days later.
In the Void, riding the gigantic Kun You, a robed figure navigated through the Void, arriving at the predetermined place once more.
"I was delayed by sothing, arrived late, but I have prepared what you requested."
The robed figure waved a hand, taking out several basic classics, for Refining God, Qi Refinent, and Body Refinent.\\p>
All of them were True Intent Classics.
Moreover, the foundational classics for Refining God closely matched those given to the Divine King by the New Five.
"The more fundantal the Classic, the more precious the best True Intent Classic.
Attempting to collect enough of these classics is very ti-consuming.
Currently, only these are available; this ti, what will you offer in exchange?"
