Chapter 353: 195, 196. Double kill, Possession of mountains and rivers, consequences of failure (Please subscribe)
Atop Accumulating Thunder Mountain, Yaochi Peak.
The elderly man and the child argued incessantly.
While Song Cheng had many of his doubts resolved.
The historical blanks were due to this land once experiencing "extinction," while the Mountain God of Accumulating Thunder Mountain and the Wu River God profited from this "extinction," ascending to an even higher level.
This step should be "Earth Level Grade D." If Song Cheng’s guess was correct, this step was "Seal."
"Even the statue of Seal" could protect the people in the Reappear Calamity, precisely because "Seal" contained extremely strong Yang Qi.
Because of "Seal," the land blanketed in history and extinction slowly recovered and became suitable for human habitation again. After thousands of years of cultivation and recuperation, it flourished once more, and under deliberate guidance, it entered the era of "segregated domination by martial arts sects."
However, ghosts did not vanish.
The ghosts that once caused the extinction of this land were the Physician.
The Physician was a complete entity comprising the Eight Ghosts, an extremely terrifying existence. Having achieved a certain summit, the Physician developed spiritual intelligence, began to wander, to ponder, to seek...
It took a long time, but it finally found a way to go even further—to transform into Zhan.
Only by becoming Zhan could it advance.
In this world, the Blue Sea’s waters always flow downward, yet all sentient beings strive upwards.
The Physician was no exception.
Therefore, the Physician began to "experiment" on this land; "Extreme Joy World" was merely a failed product of its experiments.
And finally, it succeeded; it cultivated the perfect experimental subject—a person with an extremely warped soul.
With this twisted individual, it managed to be born smoothly, but perhaps not so conveniently, perhaps... it was only after countless couples had died that it eventually made it to the Human World and reincarnated as Zhan.
In the process of transforming into Zhan, the Physician deceived reincarnators like Saint Heavenly Buddha, teaching them a "seemingly correct" method—manipulating Yin and Yang with division and integration, diverting ghosts to the sea through river conduits.
But the true purpose of this method was to breach the defenses of its old adversaries—the Mountain God of Accumulating Thunder Mountain and the Wu River God.
The Wu River God died...
While the Mountain God of Accumulating Thunder Mountain planned a desperate gamble, using the Immortality Peach as bait to weaken itself, waiting for the Physician to strike.
Then, the two began this "fusion-like" state.
Of course, neither the Mountain God nor the Physician openly mentioned "fusion," both defaulted to the claim of seeking to eliminate the other... but Song Cheng felt it wasn’t so simple.
At the moment, they were still debating. If Song Cheng couldn’t threaten them, then... they wouldn’t care about this insignificant creature.
But Song Cheng’s power was so formidable that he could partake in this decisive battle.
That was an unforeseen variable for both.
They had no choice but to appear.
Song Cheng looked at the Zhan that was the Physician’s reincarnation, with his words still echoing in his mind—"Ghosts do not die, Zhan can advance. If one is neither ghost nor Zhan, then one may only have the ordinary human lifespan of a hundred years."
These words tore at his heart.
Because Ting held a very heavy place in his heart.
Even if An had many more descendants, the so-called "affection of the distant" didn’t apply to him. As for Mo, he also owed her a lot, but when compared to Ting, she still fell short. Moreover, unlike Ting’s Twin Ghosts, Mo was of the Eight Ghosts, and she wasn’t without hope.
However, compared to her luck, Ting... was so pitiful.
To say she was a ghost, but she was human.
To say she was human, but she harbored the power of the Twin Ghosts, making her incapable of the slightest cultivation, unable to extend her life through advancement to the Qi Realm.
To say she was Zhan, but she lacked the essence and wasn’t powerful enough to move on to the next step.
And Ting had already reached the age of thirty-two. Her health was not good; perhaps, in a moment of cultivation trance, he might never see this daughter again.
The tender voice calling "Daddy, daddy" still echoed in his ears, the girl who drew pictures on the bed, laughing in the snow with a baby rabbit in her hands... remained vivid in his mind.
The more beautiful the memories in the recollection, the more painful and tear-inducing they became as the end approached.
His mind whirling with countless thoughts, Song Cheng scanned the data above the Mountain God’s and the Physician’s heads.
Their "favorability" remained at 0, unchanging.
Perhaps in their eyes, he was nothing more than a temporary target to be mollified, and once their business was settled, they would undoubtedly kill him.
Thinking this, Song Cheng suddenly spoke up, "I won’t hide it from the two of you."
Upon his opening, both the Mountain God and the Physician stopped.
Song Cheng said, "My daughter Ting is indeed the only survivor of the Twin Ghosts. Do either of you have a way?"
After speaking, he added, "Whoever can help me, I will help them."
As these words dropped, both the Mountain God and the Physician fell silent.
The Mountain God almost spoke but then held back.
No one was a fool.
In such matters, the goods must be delivered before the payment is made. If you promised to help Ting but then failed to do so, wouldn’t that push Song Cheng to your opponent’s side?
The Physician murmured, "Impossible, King Song. The Twin Ghosts cannot reincarnate. But if such an anomaly did occur, then there’s nothing anyone can do... her power is insufficient, completely unable to complete the journey to the next step."
Song Cheng said sharply, "Then what is the next step?"
The Physician replied, "Help me, and I will surely tell you."
The Mountain God hurriedly said, "You don’t need him to tell you; I know it too.
King Song, I am after all the Seal of this land and can be called the Spirit of Mountains and Rivers.
You should help me!
Otherwise, once Zhan succeeds, Dashang will enter a calamity devoid of any vitality, and everyone will die!" freewēbnoveℓ.com
The old man said this with trembling fervor.
But Song Cheng knew this old thing wasn’t up to any good either.
