Master of Strange Dao

The Dadui selectively sealed a historical disaster event, leaving a part of history that should have settled long ago hanging in limbo.

Yet, to the outside world, that event had indeed passed, and the disaster had been resolved.

But truly resolving something and bypassing it with a temporary seal are fundamentally different.

Just like that evil thought, for the people outside, it had already been sealed and suppressed.

In truth, if that evil thought were released, and its power gathered all at once, it wouldn't be much different from when it was first sealed.

If the Feng and Yin Two Families' seal were placed, after so many years, the sealed power might weaken over time, and the sealed entities would also grow weaker under the erosion of time.

Theoretically, as long as the timespan is long enough, anything sealed by the Feng and Yin Two Families will end up silently obliterated by the ages within the seal.

This is one of the biggest differences between the Dadui Seal and the Feng and Yin Two Families' seal.

Yu Ziqing had entered the disaster seal, and very few true bodies were sealed inside. That meteor was a true body that was sealed, along with a few county magistrates.

Most of the entities inside were just side characters from the disaster event, and the people he saw were largely projections of that time.

The only seal with a large number of people's true bodies sealed inside was the one for the disease Devil.

In theory, Yu Ziqing could release everything by bringing out that settled piece of history, letting the people and things inside return to this world.

But Yu Ziqing truly dared not do so.

He feared triggering a chain of reactions, likely uncontrollable and unstoppable.

Just like the first small piece in a domino setup, once it fell, everything that followed would become increasingly impossible to control or stop.

And now, without taking out a single page, the An History Book remained sealed in the Abyss, yet influence was already emerging externally.

And it started from Jinlan Mountain.

He wasn't sure if changes appeared elsewhere, but he needed to check in the southern Wilderness and near Silver Lake later.

With Cece and Wu Shuangge directing the migration of the hungry ghosts, Yang and Yu Ziqing flew into Jinlan Mountain.

The originally arranged Big Array almost needed a complete redo; even if not destroyed, its placement was off.

Crossing the locust forest, everything within the mountain seemed quite normal. People lingered in the open space between Jinlan Mountain and the locust forest, all appearing calm.

A moment later, the village chief, Yu Ziqing, and Yang sat together, and the village chief relayed the events that had occurred there in detail.

"The situation is roughly this. I've investigated thoroughly. The changes inside the mountain are significant, but no one in the village was harmed.

The mine collapsed quite a bit. Some of the Jinlan Mushrooms Yang planted were buried, but nothing else occurred.

The main thing is that the Jade Tomb told me something big had happened.

The Jade Tomb said the Evil Lord had escaped, which seems like quite a big problem, right?"

"You don't need to worry about that sentence; it's nothing." Yu Ziqing first reassured the village chief.

So that evil thought was actually called the Evil Lord?

Does that mean the evil thought and the Evil Qi were indeed two different things from the Jade Tomb's power?

History indeed had settled, and the Evil Lord did escape from the seal, that much was true.

However, it escaped but didn't entirely escape.

Escaping one danger only to fall into another.

In truth, that guy was rather pitiful, currently likely being toyed with by a giant in the depths of the earth as if it were a walnut.

Fortunately, at that time, he made a decisive choice, knowing he certainly couldn't hold onto that gemstone, as doing so would bring monumental trouble.

If it were taken out, that guy could still cause trouble from within the gemstone.

Such a once mighty, possibly even giant-level character should be dealt with by giants, not by oneself.

Among those Yu Ziqing had met and known, only Heavenly Monarch Luoge dared to include the title "Monarch" in his honorifics.

That kind of character, even in death, with consciousness unrevived, just a sleeping corpse, could make Heavenly Demons curse and bypass.

This Evil Lord, at its strongest, might have also been exceedingly powerful.

Unfortunately, from the look of it, it had clearly suffered not just one or two fatal blows to end up in that ghostly form.

Nevertheless, Yu Ziqing didn't underestimate it, becoming even more cautious.

With successive blows and the passage of time, it could still maintain that level of power today, not dead yet. At its peak, it was possibly more troublesome than Heavenly Monarch Luoge.

Yu Ziqing reassured the village chief, telling him not to worry, the Evil Lord was no problem.

He and Yang once again traversed every corner of Jinlan Mountain, surveying everything to ensure no major issues remained.

Yang continued repairing and rearranging the Big Array.

Yu Ziqing threw out all the raw materials for the meteor he had collected, handing them over to Yang.

"Except for the last piece I can't smelt, which I'll keep for now, all the raw materials are here.

Do as you see fit. This material suppresses Qi Refining cultivators, not only hindering cultivation but also interfering with the casting of the Secret Technique.
