Soon after Du Wuchen and Gao Xufan were sent back, only Su Mo and the three girls remained inside the underground facility.
The underground chamber below had finally quieted down completely.
The horrifying screams from earlier were gone. Only the faint rustling of ants feeding on the remaining flesh occasionally echoed upward through the silent underground space.
Zhang Xulin subconsciously avoided looking down toward the chamber.
Even after everything ended, the atmosphere there still made her uncomfortable.
Yang Qingxi noticed Su Mo standing beside the balcony without moving and asked curiously,
"What’s wrong, Su Mo? Aren’t those criminals already dead?"
"Is there any point in staying here longer?"
Leng Shuang also stepped forward and spoke seriously.
"If Master is worried about disposing of the skeletons, you don’t need to trouble yourself. Leave it to ."
"No need, Shuang."
Su Mo shook his head slowly.
Yang Qingxi narrowed her eyes suspiciously.
"...Don’t tell you still have sothing else planned for them?"
"Are you not going to let them rest peacefully even after death?"
Su Mo looked at her in surprise.
"Eh? How did you know?"
Then he sighed emotionally.
"I have to admit, Miss Yang understands best."
Zhang Xulin and Leng Shuang imdiately looked at him in shock.
Even after their death, he still had plans for the corpses?
Su Mo ignored their strange expressions and looked toward the underground chamber below.
"I just hope this works."
The next mont, crimson light flickered faintly inside his Devil Eyes.
Then he jumped directly from the balcony.
Yang Qingxi followed after him almost imdiately.
When Su Mo landed on the blood-soaked ground below, the countless ants covering the chamber instantly dispersed and gave him a clear path as if welcoming their king.
However, Su Mo’s attention wasn’t on the ants.
Instead, he focused on the thick Yin energy gathering throughout the underground chamber.
The resentnt here had beco extrely dense after the criminals died in such miserable conditions.
A smile slowly appeared on his face.
"Haha... it worked."
Yang Qingxi landed beside him and asked,
"What worked?"
Su Mo turned toward her and explained patiently.
"It’s about cultivating Yin energy."
"You know how places filled with resentnt after mass death naturally gather Yin Energy, right?"
Yang Qingxi nodded lightly.
"Of course."
Then she frowned slightly.
"But without a suitable dium, the Yin Energy will naturally disperse over ti."
"We’re not inside so special tomb built with feng shui formations capable of trapping Yin Energy permanently."
She glanced around the chamber.
"Although the resentnt here is indeed enormous, the Yin Energy itself won’t remain useful for long."
Su Mo grinned.
"But what if I already have a dium?"
Yang Qingxi paused slightly.
Then Su Mo casually took out a small plant pot from his storage ring.
The mont Yang Qingxi saw it clearly, her eyes widened.
"Ghost Apple Plant?!"
Instantly, she understood his plan.
"With the amount of resentnt generated here..."
Her expression beca strange.
"...this place really might be enough to grow a Black Apple Fruit."
"Exactly."
Su Mo nodded in satisfaction.
"Now we just wait."
He walked toward the centre of the underground chamber and carefully placed the Ghost Apple Plant there.
Under the effect of his Devil Eyes, he could clearly see streams of Yin energy floating throughout the underground space.
Soon, those dark currents slowly began converging toward the Ghost Apple Plant.
The plant visibly trembled slightly.
anwhile, behind them, Leng Shuang still looked confused.
Fortunately, Zhang Xulin kindly explained beside her.
"The Ghost Apple Plant absorbs Yin Energy... Then it creates Black Apple Fruits..."
Leng Shuang’s eyes widened slightly.
"Master’s ruby eyes can beco stronger and gain new abilities... Amazing."
At the side, Yang Qingxi also silently observed Su Mo.
She was honestly becoming increasingly curious about what kind of terrifying changes his Devil Eyes would gain in the future.
Right then, she suddenly noticed Su Mo spreading his spiritual energy throughout the entire underground chamber.
A faint blue glow spread outward silently.
At the sa ti, Su Mo’s inner voice sounded in her mind.
[Get up, my undead~]
"..."
A black line instantly appeared on Yang Qingxi’s forehead.
This bastard.
Why was he suddenly acting like so mid-villain necromancer boss?
Below, the blue spiritual energy gradually entered the scattered skeletons spread throughout the underground chamber.
Soon, the energy condensed inside the bones.
Then sothing strange happened.
The originally blue spiritual power slowly transford into dark Yin Energy.
A cold atmosphere spread silently.
Then, one skeleton suddenly moved.
*Crack.*
Its fingers twitched.
Then another stood up.
And another.
One after another, the skeletons slowly rose from the blood-soaked floor.
Zhang Xulin imdiately scread softly, "G-Ghosts!"
Leng Shuang also beca shocked. "Master did this?!"
Yang Qingxi quickly cald down after the initial surprise. "There are no ghosts."
Then she looked toward Su Mo thoughtfully.
"Your corpse puppet technique?"
"All this ti you mostly used it for mory reading, so I almost forgot this was its actual purpose."
Su Mo shrugged casually.
"I never had much use for it before."
"Besides, I don’t like disturbing unrelated dead people."
He looked toward the standing skeleton army calmly.
"But using my enemies as undead puppets doesn’t really hurt my conscience."
Yang Qingxi smiled faintly. "As long as your conscience agrees."
Then she suddenly noticed another issue.
"Wait."
"Where are you even planning to store all these skeletons?"
"You know they’ll start slling terrible soon, right?"
Su Mo’s expression stiffened slightly.
Indeed.
That was troubleso.
His current storage ring definitely couldn’t fit this many skeleton puppets.
After thinking briefly, he sighed. "Then I’ll just bury them here temporarily."
"Once the ants completely clean up the remaining flesh and the sll fades away naturally, I’ll deal with them later."
Yang Qingxi nodded casually.
"Alright. From now on, this underground place already belongs to you. Use it however you want."
At that mont, Leng Shuang suddenly spoke seriously.
"If Master wants to remove the sll faster, I can bring chemical agents later. I promise I’ll handle it properly."
