Chapter 128: Yin Family Disappearance, Piecing It Together (8k)_2
The earth trembled slightly, and this time it didn't explode directly, but instead dispersed the force over hundreds of yards, only causing a slight tremor that lifted the dust on its surface.
His body shone with myriad colors, with his body at the center, the lights continually circulating until they finally merged together, slowly differentiating, becoming clearer and clearer, until they transformed into ten streams of flowing light on the surface of his body.
Yu Ziqing softly shouted, and as the Blood Sea churned, his realm naturally progressed into the next stage, the Rebirth Realm.
An hour later, the brilliance on his body slowly faded, and he opened his eyes in turn.
The swollen flesh all over his body smoothed out, with fluent muscle lines and balanced physique, even his skin seemed somewhat improved, and his body hair follicles closed up, nearly disappearing completely.
After the hair on his head fell out strand by strand, new hair grew back in its place, denser and shinier, radiating Divine Light.
Taking a deep breath, he gave a bow to the village chief.
"Thank you, village chief, for accompanying me in my cultivation these past days. I have greatly benefited from it, having successfully advanced to the Fifth Tier, and moreover, I have perfected ten Body Cultivation Techniques, which I will later organize and leave at home."
"Good, good, good." The village chief laughed with his mouth agape.
The Jinlan Secret Skills were actually enough to suffice; those secret techniques were indeed somewhat difficult when it came to cultivation. In the village, if someone spent ten years focusing on one or two techniques and managed to master them, it was considered quite good.
If there were cultivation techniques, naturally it would be for the best.
In terms of Body Cultivation, he now believed in Yu Ziqing; even old Yang now admitted that he basically knew nothing about Body Cultivation, other than knowing a bit about the techniques.
Yu Ziqing sorted out the most basic parts of the ten different Body Cultivation Techniques, including the secrets of practicing them and the various vital points, and then did not interfere further.
The rest of the matters didn't require his involvement; for the majority of the villagers, cultivating their Qi-Blood was sufficient for now.
He needed to resolve the matters he hadn't finished before.
This time, he didn't need old Yang to follow him; he had learned everything necessary.
Returning to the Feng family, Feng Buju asked about his son as soon as they met.
"If you're worried, you can come back with me to check on him."
"Forget it, forget it..."
"Now we're going to another place to find You Zhen's right arm, right?"
"There's no problem with that; last year, I visited that place, and it's still intact. However, there's a different issue now."
"What's the issue?"
"The Yin Family, I don't know where they've gone, they've all disappeared." Feng Buju frowned slightly, delivering some troubling news.
"Previously, when there was a disturbance in the East Sea, the Sea Clan were all in hiding. Didn't the Yin Family also seal the island and relocate their entire family?"
Yu Ziqing was aware of this; at that time, the Evil Dragon was going berserk, and the Yin Family, having developed on the islands in the East Sea for many years, naturally had a clear understanding of the local changes.
The Evil Dragon Tomb was actually quite far from the Yin Family's islands, not even within the tens of thousands of miles of sea territory affected by the Evil Dragon Association's activities.
But considering the madness of the Evil Dragon at the time, it was daring enough to endure the Heavenly Tribulation and even rush to tear apart the tribulation clouds. Nobody could guarantee that when the Evil Dragon ran out of Blood Food, it wouldn't charge out of that territory and onto the Yin Family's islands to massacre the inhabitants.
It was quite reasonable for the Yin Family to have relocated their entire household at that time.
The Feng family didn't find anything suspicious either.
But now that the Evil Dragon had completely vanished, the Evil Dragon Tomb had been sunk to the seabed by the Dragon Clan, and buried completely.
The people of the Yin Family should have returned by now.
If they hadn't yet returned, it could still be considered understandable as the Dragon Clan had previously slaughtered many in that sea region, and the news had recently spread.
At that time, many human cultivators were trying to exploit the chaos in that region, resulting in numerous deaths.
Of course, among them, a portion could rightfully blame the Dragon Clan as their scapegoat.
The Dragon Clan didn't deny it; they had no need to deny it.
According to the agreement made with humanity back then, people from the Divine Dynasty were not allowed to go there, nor would the Dragon Clan assist in the reincarnation of the Evil Dragon.
Now that the Evil Dragon had died completely, whoever amongst humanity died, had to take responsibility themselves.
"You don't know where they have moved to?" Yu Ziqing found it odd.
"I know, but after sending Little Bodhi away, I thought to get in touch with the Yin Family first. After all, the other two parts were sealed by them, and only they knew the location. This is the kind of thing no record would be left of.
However, when I went to their temporary relocation site, it was completely empty. The traces there indeed showed they had moved in at one point, but now, not a single person was there.
And when I tried to communicate the normal way, I sent a message, but there was no response whatsoever.
I had two of the Feng family's experts secretly search in places I thought they might be, but they found nothing.
Their island is currently still sealed off.
This clearly indicates that something has happened."
Feng Buju wore a serious expression; the Feng and Yin Two Families, sharing the same breath, were as close as a single family, with tombs of both families containing the buried members of the other.
It's just that, nominally, the two families are separate, and they also didn't live close to one another.
This was also in accordance with ancestral instructions.
If the Feng and Yin Two Families lived together, combined into one, it would be a situation of unendurable arrogance, a state that could not last long.
If they sought to pass on their legacy for ten thousand generations, the two surnames must be separated and could not be too close to each other.
Therefore, the Feng family lived in the western part of Dali, and the Yin Family resided on an island in the East Sea, separated by land and sea, but they would come together to communicate and cooperate whenever there was a need.
