Chapter 169 – Unquenchable inferno

Su Yun met the gaze of the Lord of Shuofang, whose eyes were burning with eagerness to know the answer.

"I don't know," Su Yun shook his head and with a thought, the spiritual realm returned to his body and he walked away.

Doctor Dong hurried forward and said, "Su scholar, you..."

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Doctor Dong, you've got it wrong. I'm really not like you!"

Zuo Songyan blocked his way and asked, "How did you know about these things outside of the world, Shangshi?"

Su Yun bypassed him and said helplessly, "You're thinking too much, Pu She. Think less, and you'll be much easier!"

Ye Luo walked up and asked, "How did Big Brother Su know the secrets of the 72 Cave Heavens?"

Su Yun was furious and didn't know how to respond.

He just had a flash of inspiration and thought he could calculate it this way and get different results. After calculating the seventh spiritual realm and the celestial map, he didn't know what it meant.

Zuo Songyan and others asked him these questions, hoping to get answers from him, but how could he know the answers?

Ying Ying reminded him, "Su scholar, your goal is to open the 72 Cave Heavens and defeat Di Ping tomorrow. Don't pay attention to these people. If you do, you won't have time to cultivate!"

Su Yun pushed Ye Luo aside and rushed out of the Immortal's Abode, returning to the peacefulness of the Negative Mountain Sedan.

Looking back at the road he had come, he saw that it was blocked with various carriages and the Negative Mountain Sedan could not return to the Wen Chang Academy.

Su Yun sat down and silently thought to himself, "With the complete calculation method of the seventh spiritual realm center and the celestial map, it will be much easier for me to open other Cave Heavens. As for the Tian Shi Yuan, the Duo Long, the Da Jiao Tian Dong, and the Tian Xin, they have nothing to do with me!"

In his spiritual realm, the spirit began to establish the center of the seventh spiritual realm in his own spiritual realm. At that moment, Su Yun caught a glimpse of Hong Xiu fluttering by the corner of his eye.

Su Yun looked out the window and saw Wutong standing alone in the ruins of the Immortal's Abode, her red clothes fluttering in the wind, looking lonely and isolated.

She seemed to sense Su Yun's gaze and looked back at him.

Su Yun withdrew his gaze and did not make eye contact with her.

Wutong lowered her head and recalled the star map Su Yun had depicted, which had a stronger impact on her than on anyone else.

Because, like the true dragon, she was not a creature of this world!

Seeing the star map Su Yun had drawn reminded her of many things.

She lowered her eyebrows and didn't know what she was thinking.

Jiao Shu'Ao stood behind her not far away, breathing and refining his spiritual weapon, the Dragon Tooth Sword, thinking to himself, "This brat just knows how to mess around."

"Mr. Shuijing, Su Shangshi knows a lot," the Lord of Shuofang said to Qiu Shuijing, but his gaze remained on Su Yun in the Negative Mountain Sedan.

Qiu Shuijing remained calm and said, "He originally came from the Tian Shi Yuan. He knows more than he thinks he does and more than we think he does."

As soon as he spoke, everyone present trembled and pondered the meaning behind his words.

The more they thought about it, the more they felt that there were terrible secrets hidden within.

The Lord of Shuofang's voice was hoarse and dry as he laughed and said, "When I was a child, I often listened to stories from our ancestors in the black coffin. The most memorable story was the one about the dragon and the demon falling from the Tian Shi Yuan."His eyes flickered with an inexplicable light, and his voice trembled as he laughed, "Where do the divine dragons come from? In this world, there have been so many myths and divine beasts, but where have they gone? If we can find that place, can we achieve immortality?"

He was referring to divine creatures like the divine dragons and Bi Fang.

At some point in history, divine creatures like dragons and phoenixes were quite common, but after that period, they seemed to suddenly disappear!

Why did all these divine creatures disappear? Why do incidents of falling dragons occasionally occur? Is this related to the seventy-two heavenly realms? What secrets are hidden within?

Zuo Songyan glanced at him and spoke like a bell, "Lord Hou, you're losing focus. The most crucial question now shouldn't be about Lin Qingsheng, why did he turn into a disaster dust monster?"

The Shuofang Marquis suddenly woke up and laughed, "I was confused for a moment. Yes, we should understand the disaster dust monster. Lin Qingsheng is a scholar from the Lin family and has already reached the Yuan Dong realm. It's truly unbelievable that he would transform into a disaster dust monster. The black coffin sold to me by the eunuch contained some disaster dust monsters, and although I gained some insights from studying them, the principle behind it is not very clear."

Qiu Shuijing's expression was strange as he said, "Eunuch Zuo also sold me a black coffin, but my medical skills are not high enough to make much progress in dissection. Didn't Eunuch Zuo say that he only obtained one black coffin? How did he sell one to the Shuofang Marquis as well?"

The Shuofang Marquis was surprised and said, "Eunuch Zuo said the same thing to me."

"Well... cough, cough, cough!"

Zuo Songyan coughed repeatedly, his eyes wandering.

Su Yun obtained seven black coffins from the disaster dust factory, each containing a disaster dust monster. He gave one to Doctor Dong, and Zuo Songyan sold the rest.

Naturally, he asked for an exorbitant price, but even if the price was high, Qiu Shuijing, the Shuofang Marquis, and Xue Shengren still bought them for research.

Because at the time, Zuo Songyan told them that there was only one black coffin left, so no matter how much money they had, they had to buy it.

Fortunately, Zuo Songyan was still generous enough to give Su Yun three thousand Qinghong coins as a reward, but of course, he still made a huge profit.

Since backing Su Yun, he has earned much more money in the past few months than he has in the past few years. It's worth noting that he is the leader of bandits in 108 counties and prefectures in seventeen states. You can imagine how much wealth Su Yun has brought him!

"Oh, right, Doctor Xinglin! Come here, you are a physician who has studied anatomy overseas!"

Zuo Songyan quickly beckoned to Doctor Dong and smiled, "Please explain your findings to everyone!"

Doctor Dong took his gaze off Su Yun and opened the wooden box he carried with him, saying seriously, "I cut the disaster dust monster's brain into seven thousand pieces..."

Qiu Shuijing's eyes flashed with admiration, "Great knife skills!"

Doctor Dong was surprised to see him and bowed respectfully, "Mr. Shuijing is also an expert. It's an honor to meet you."

Qiu Shuijing hurriedly returned the gesture and said solemnly, "In this world, I have only seen two physicians who can cut a brain into seven thousand pieces, both of whom are overseas. You are the third. And those two are at the level of the Saintly Pursuit realm and are about to reach the Original Dao realm."

Everyone's hearts trembled, and their eyes turned to Doctor Dong, thinking, "This fat physician has such amazing skills?"

Doctor Dong took out a stack of paper from the box and said, "During this time, I have studied its heart, liver, spleen, lungs, large and small intestines, triple burner, bladder, stomach, and gallbladder, as well as its skin, hair, bones, and internal circulation, and have analyzed them all."Zuo Songyan asked, "Are these papers the records of the Ge Wu Zhi that you obtained?"

Doctor Dong shook his head and said, "This is the catalog of the Ge Wu Zhi."

.

Everyone frowned.

Just the catalog was so thick, it would take several days to read the entire Ge Wu Zhi!

"Xiaoyao, tell everyone about our discovery," Doctor Dong said.

Chi Xiaoyao stepped forward and used her spiritual power to extract a summary of the Ge Wu knowledge from her own spiritual world. She distributed it to everyone and said, "This time, I assisted the teacher in studying Ge Wu and found a unique energy inside the Jiehui monster from the previous world's destruction. This energy has a strong infectiousness and can infect the heaven and earth's vitality of our world. If a spiritual master is infected, their polluted vitality will twist their soul and body, making them become more and more like the Jiehui monster."

She paused and continued, "I call this energy Jie."

Doctor Dong took out a small jade bottle from a wooden box and said, "Lord Hou, do you remember the Jie fire that I asked you to bring back from the underground Jiehui City?"

The Shuofang Marquis nodded.

"Jie fire is the burning Jie," Doctor Dong said, holding up the jade bottle. "The Jiehui monster in the underground Jiehui City was actually a creature from the previous world, which could be human or other intelligent life. There was too much Jie in their world, which caused them to mutate. The entire world was infected and then perished in the Jie fire, becoming Jiehui. And now..."

He hesitated.

Chi Xiaoyao continued his words and said, "They are coming to infect us."

Zuo Songyan's face was solemn, and he said, "If the seven major families use the power of Jiehui monsters to launch a disaster, it is possible to engulf the entire Shuofang in Jie fire. If all the people in Shuofang City become Jiehui monsters..."

His old face trembled a few times, and his voice became hoarse. "Shuijing, do you remember the Jiehui City burning overseas? The Jie fire cannot be extinguished!"

Qiu Shuijing's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Shuofang won't become like that! Wutong, as a human-demon hybrid, can you resolve Jie?"

The girl Wutong walked forward, raised her hand lightly, and the jade bottle in Doctor Dong's hand exploded.

The flames in the jade bottle fell to the ground, and everyone suddenly seemed to hear twisted screams, tragic howls, and all kinds of negative emotions rushing into their brains, causing them to fall and become demonic!

The Jie fire touched the ground of the Shenxian residence and still did not extinguish. It continued to burn and gradually grew stronger.

Everyone's face changed slightly, and they each stepped back a few steps to avoid being contaminated by the Jie fire.

The girl Wutong walked calmly and stepped on the Jie fire with her bare feet, but the Jie fire had no effect on her.

Not only that, but she could even absorb the power of the Jie fire and enjoy it.

"With Wutong here, Jie fire is nothing to worry about," the Shuofang Marquis laughed heartily.

Tian Shi Yuan, Zang Long Tomb.

As night fell, Tong Lao Xian rushed over, walked into the Zang Long Tomb, and smiled, "The true dragon from outside the sky came to the mortal world but unfortunately encountered human-demon hybrids and perished with them. And now, the honorable one is lingering by his own bones, unwilling to leave. Do you have any grievances?"

The Zang Long Tomb lit up with a faint light, and the spirit of the dragon appeared, flying around its own bones and emitting a long dragon chant.

Tong Lao Xian laughed, "Doesn't the dragon spirit want revenge?"

The next day, at dawn, at the Wen Chang Academy.

As soon as the sky brightened, Su Yun got up, washed up, had breakfast, and sent three little fox spirits to school. He then returned to his mountain and water residence and sat down.

In his spiritual world, the book monster Ying Ying looked at him seriously and whispered, "Are you ready?"

Su Yun smiled and looked at the gate of the Tian Dao Academy in front of him. "I'm ready!"Ying Ying, the book monster, clenched her fist and cheered, "Overthrow Di Ping!"

Su Yun also clenched his fist heavily, "Overthrow Di Ping!"
