Capítulo 855: Chapter 426: Formless Above and Below
Qin Ming’s steps were relaxed, and even in the night, there was a morning glow-like radiance on his face. After seeing the New World, he seed to have an inseparable connection with the earth.
“Was the retreat successful?” Yao Ruoxian asked. She was leading a team to inspect so major towns, giant cities, and large tal mining areas in the southeast of Great Yu, which was also her main destination.
“It was alright,” Qin Ming replied with a smile. They had long left the highlands and were traversing the snowfield, clearly it was early spring, yet the ice here had not thawed.
“It seems you’ve gained a lot.”
Yao Ruoxian’s team consisted of over twenty people, all masters, among them was an elderly lady with silver hair who had reached the level of a grandmaster.
An elderly man with short hair as sharp as steel needles had reached the Perfect Domain of the Fourth Realm.
These two masters exchanged a glance, watching Qin Ming, whose steps were light and whose feet emitted strands of Earth Essence Qi, both revealing a look of surprise.
This young man seed innately close to the earth, walking lightly, as if supported by Earth Qi, which was rather rare.
“Princess, why did he co here for retreat, and what Miracle Technique did he practice?” the silver-haired female grandmaster asked secretly.
Yao Ruoxian said, “It should be the Wuji Scripture.”
The short-haired old man said, “That’s a well-known Miracle Technique within the Five Elents Domain.”
The elderly lady’s heart trembled and she said, “Could it be… he is reenacting legends, restoring events recorded in the Ancient Book to reality?”
The grandmaster’s insight was vast, and she guessed sothing.
“What situation?” the old man asked.
The female grandmaster said, “Seeing the New World, obtaining Secret Treasures, if my guess is correct, he might have obtained the rumored Secret Scripture, the Earth Virtue Scripture, which explains why he is so close to the earth.”
“Such a rumored occurrence actually appearing in him,” the old man showed a look of shock.
Yao Ruoxian, as a mber of the Imperial Family, had been well-read since childhood, and her insight was similarly extensive. She had long suspected internally, feeling unsettled because she knew Qin Ming was going to a large tal mining area, and searching the sea, could he be aiming to continuously obtain Secret Treasures?
She transmitted, saying, “Both of you, keep this confidential, do not leak it out.”
Qin Ming was obviously about to continuously see the New World, but looking around the world, how many could achieve this? However, this talent, before it manifests, might invite disaster.
The female grandmaster and the old man nodded, looking towards Qin Ming’s silhouette ahead, their eyes changed. Previously, they had whispered criticisms, believing the Princess should not accommodate the young man’s route during inspections.
Hundreds of miles of uninhabited snowfield, the sound of pine waves was eerie, the wind was sowhat creepy, with ghostly shadows appearing intermittently. This wild area was extrely dangerous.
Behind the group, an old man in funeral clothes silently followed, had already trailed this team for over a hundred miles without giving up.
“He’s still there!” a guard whispered.
“Don’t speak, don’t bother him.”
This was despite having a grandmaster present, there were still Night Ruins creatures following, indicating how severe the issues of this world had beco.
Soon, everyone felt the bone-piercing cold, the road ahead suddenly beca pitch-dark, but then they saw two red lanterns hanging, with two figures leading the way ahead.
“Stop!” the female grandmaster shouted.
The old man said, “Sothing’s wrong, we’ve stepped into a mysterious region!”
The female grandmaster said, “This is a place where reality and Night Ruins overlap; we’re no longer in Ye State.”
Imdiately, a commotion broke out within the group.
Yao Ruoxian reminded them, “Don’t act rashly, activate your entire body’s blood energy, unleash Pure Yang Consciousness or Heavenly Light, and wait to reconnect with reality; never wander off alone.”
Two shadowy figures turned back, their snow-white fangs glinted under the red lantern’s reflection.
Behind, the old man in funeral clothes sped up, trying to urge the group forward.
“Boom!”
Under Qin Ming’s feet, Earth Qi surged, sending the old man in funeral attire flying into the air.
The female grandmaster struck, Pure Yang Consciousness sliced out like a blade, causing the old man in funeral clothes to shudder violently, blood spewed from his mouth, dropping him into the darkness.
Monts later, normalcy returned as they reappeared on the snowfield, but faintly visible, misty, with hanging red lanterns, while further away, blue Fire Springs flowed.
“Not ghosts, they have flesh, temperature,” the female grandmaster spoke.
Qin Ming ignored those bloody, fleshy creatures, but stared at the gradually disappearing red lanterns and the bluish glows, and said, “Are there Fire Springs in the Night Ruins too?”
Yao Ruoxian nodded, “Yes, most are blue.”
Qin Ming, thoughtful, said, “Why do I feel the world’s biggest issue stems from the Fire Springs?”
Having read many texts, Yao Ruoxian replied, “Many have thought so, even Earth Immortals have traced the source of the Fire Springs, dug deeper, but eventually all pulled back, leaving it unresolved.”
That day, they reached a mineral zone six hundred miles away.
This was an area of large tal mines, composed of complex elents used for weapon crafting, which also produced Day Gold, and even once uncovered sporadic Exotic Gold Particles.
In recent years, this large mining area was paused by Great Yu for preservation.
Nowadays, across the land, like isolated islands, the Great Yu Imperial Family was not at ease with this critical zone, hence sent Imperial Family mbers to inspect personally.
“Why is this village so peculiar?”
Approaching a pitch-black village, everyone felt sothing amiss; the fiery Fire Springs were supposed to be bright red but were extinguished, and shadowy figures appeared in the village, with many villagers not yet asleep despite the late hour.
“Hiss, this is a ghost village!” said a guard, inhaling the Night Fog, feeling chilled to the bone.
