Master of Strange Dao

Feng Buju clenched his fists, his whole body trembling.

Yu Ziqing suddenly extended a hand, placing it on his shoulder.

"Just agree with them for now, if they're willing to die, then I'm willing to bury them."

"Young Master Qing's words are truly witty." Zhao Tiancheng smiled, taking Yu Ziqing's words as mere verbal bravado.

Successfully taking away the Yin family members, and using them to lure Feng Buju, everything proceeded smoothly; was it not allowed for someone to hurl a few curses?

Let them curse, as long as the task was completed, everything else became irrelevant.

Having walked the path of the Evil Dao, cursed for hundreds of years; did they still care about being cursed now?

Those who cared about being cursed in the Evil Dao had long perished, incapable of surviving for so long while remaining lively.

Yu Ziqing looked expressionlessly at Feng Buju, revealing nothing to anyone.

Feng Buju felt conflicted, unsure of what to say.

If he did not act, the Patriarch of the Yin family and others were certainly doomed, but if he assisted in sealing the evil creature, it would only mean endless trouble, possibly leading to greater issues.

And that significant trouble would undoubtedly start from Jinlan Mountain, with Jinlan Mountain bearing the brunt first.

King Xiang, standing beside them, remained silent, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.

Yu Ziqing turned around, heading back, as nothing significant would occur here for the time being.

Before the sealing ritual concluded, if any of the evil paths tried anything suspicious, it would mean they all died together.

They had exerted so much effort to arrive here, surely they did not plan to drag the heads of the Feng and Yin families to perish together at a chosen location.

Old Yang followed Yu Ziqing as they left together.

Exiting the cave and returning to the surface, Old Yang glanced at Yu Ziqing and closed his eyes.

Yu Ziqing, sensing something, looked around cautiously, protecting Old Yang.

At the cave entrance, evil qi surged, and those evil creatures would not come near here; for now, it was safe.

Moments later, Old Yang opened his eyes, glanced at Yu Ziqing, and Yu Ziqing understood, also closing his eyes to enter the Seventh Floor.

Upon entering, sure enough, he saw the message Old Yang left for him.

"Our family's Jade Tomb has developed a bit of awareness, but I haven't noticed any evil qi, moreover, that entity is quite sensible; it requires vitality and earth qi to help it recover, and after experiencing previous events, it doesn't dare to act recklessly.

I feel that things here are not right, the evil qi and evil thoughts here are too abundant.

Moreover, you must also sense that the evil qi here is a completely different power from the Jade Tomb's power.

They have not integrated at all, just like when I first started my cultivation, demon qi and evil qi seemed mixed, yet were clearly distinct.

I believe that the record you saw is true, but not entirely complete.

There's definitely something else intentionally left out, not recorded.

Also, did you seriously agree with that evil path, to have Feng Buju help?"

After reading, Yu Ziqing immediately understood. Old Yang knew all along that the King of the Hungry Ghosts had no connection with the Jade Tomb.

No wonder Old Yang watched from beginning to end silently, he allowed Feng Buju to help and Old Yang never uttered a sound.

It turned out Old Yang also thought that evil path was undoubtedly misled by some incomplete information.

Additionally, his family's Jade Tomb had gained a sliver of awareness, likely due to the King of the Hungry Ghosts aiding the Jade Tomb when returning, thus sparking some awareness.

The extent of the awareness did not matter, whether the intelligence was high or low was unimportant; being sensible was trivial.

What mattered was that it existed.

As long as it existed, even if that evil path sealed that evil creature and took it out, it would cause no major waves.

At that time, the first to oppose that evil path would be the Jade Tomb itself.

Yu Ziqing pondered for a moment before leaving a message on Old Yang's message wall.

"The Yin family members and the Feng family members cannot die; we've reached this point, we cannot give up halfway.

It's not just because it involves You Zhen, but also due to the requests from the family heads of both families; additionally, I have many questions about sealing that I need to consult them on, they cannot die.

Moreover, letting them do the sealing, isn't much of a problem.

First, solve this problem, and when we hold the initiative.

Besides, do you really think we can defeat those four evil path members if we turn hostile immediately?

Especially that Zhao Tiancheng, his aura is at least Ninth Tier, isn't it? The other four are about the same.

If we turn hostile on the spot, we definitely couldn't manage it, let's wait, let them get a bit more arrogant.

Moreover, I feel there's something off about the sealing here, it doesn't match the records.

Because those evil creatures are too quiet, from beginning to end they are too quiet.

Something isn't right about this.

Happens to be that there's still some time needed here, I need to check where the County Magistrate Xu Hang of Jiayin City has gone."

After finishing the message, Yu Ziqing left the Seventh Floor.

Moments later, Old Yang opened his eyes, glancing at Yu Ziqing.

"This place is filled with evil qi, it's possible evil thoughts are mingling within, if anything happens, you know how to contact me."

"I understand."

"Do you need me to accompany you to Jiayin City?"

"No need, you stay here on guard, I need to experiment with some things."

Yu Ziqing exited the cave, walking outward.

After taking a few steps, a hint of blackness emerged on his skin, a power belonging to the Jade Tomb.

Sure enough, after he summoned the Jade Tomb's power, those evil creatures went about their business, as if he didn't exist or considered him one of their own.

If unnecessary, these evil creatures would not casually attack other evil creatures, a fact discovered earlier.

Exiting this Grotto Heaven, Yu Ziqing passed through the crowd of evil creatures, almost none took a second look at him.

Until he passed by a monster with a rhinoceros-like body and seven living creature heads on top, one of the heads opened its mouth wide, dragging the whole body to bite at Yu Ziqing.

Yu Ziqing threw a punch and saw wisps of black qi emerge from that monster's head.

Yu Ziqing paused slightly, glancing at his fist, then at the fleeing ugly evil creature, a thought suddenly surged in his mind.

His figure blurred as he caught up with that evil creature, raining down punch after punch, smashing one of the monster's heads.

The remaining six heads howled at Yu Ziqing in unison, probably thinking that since the one biting was killed, it had nothing to do with them, urging Yu Ziqing to stop.

"Why stop, you provoked me first, so don't blame me for using you for an experiment."

Yu Ziqing didn't stop, striking the evil creature until black qi emanated all over its body, while the other evil creatures stayed far away, not participating in the conflict.

Seeing that the monster was reduced to one remaining head, Yu Ziqing finally ceased his assault.

He glanced at his fist, unleashing the Nourishing Body Fist technique once more, launching another punch.

Black qi emerged again from the monster's body.

With ordinary attacks, that monster merely screamed, without any black qi emerging.

After the experiment, he was one hundred percent sure.

Jinlan Mountain's Nourishing Body Fist could actually expel the power belonging to the Jade Tomb from that monster's body.

After forcibly expelling all the power belonging to the Jade Tomb from the monster's body, with no more black qi emerging, he saw the evil qi on the monster surge; it suddenly lost its reason, recklessly charging around in madness.

Fist skill, this seemingly mundane technique, besides being used for nourishing the body at Jinlan Mountain, had no other effect; how did it come to be?

Yu Ziqing recalled Old Yang boasting at that time about helping to perfect the Nourishing Body Fist.

But he perfected it in vain, the more he worked on it the worse the effect, ultimately conceding, underestimated the wisdom of predecessors, completely giving up on the matter.

Now, that mysterious fist skill which could only be used for body nourishing at Jinlan Mountain seemed to have great effect here.
