Elegant maiden, yearning day and night for her. Yet should she not be found, one dreams and pines. Ah, so distressing, tossing and turning restlessly.
This night, Feng Qing’an deeply experienced the sentiment of past men, after the cultivation, tossing and turning, impossible to fall asleep. Even though the cultivation speed of this night increased by two or three times compared to previous days, he did not have too much mind to ponder, guessing that it was the effect of the Soul Cleansing Spring.
Now he only wants to see that girl again, but the system only gave him one chance. He did not miss the opportunity, but that little time was not enough. Who could predict he would leave the Underworld Realm so soon?
Left with no other choice, Feng Qing’an could only use the “Sending God Skill” to project his consciousness into Black Mountain, to see how this fellow has sorted out the Ghost Wolf legacy he obtained.
“Black Mountain, you…?”
Just as he let his consciousness fall onto Black Mountain, Feng Qing’an immediately noticed something was amiss.
Because Black Mountain’s stature has grown increasingly larger, Feng Qing’an usually observed everything in the mountains and their ruler’s wolf pack from a top-down angle.
But now, Feng Qing’an saw an ordinary mountain wolf at eye level with Black Mountain, the ground where they stood had no noticeable difference in altitude.
There was definitely nothing wrong with the mountain wolf, so the only possible problem could lie with Black Mountain.
Awooo-
Black Mountain released a roar, then Feng Qing’an’s perspective began to gradually rise, transitioning from a horizontal view to a top-down view of the wolf pack, all the wolves showing a genuine reverence at this moment.
“You can change your body size at will now?”
Feng Qing’an immediately reacted, obviously, Black Mountain had benefited from the bloodline evolution, even mastering such a divine power.
Awoo-
Black Mountain released a proud howl, allowing it to return to the village.
“Besides this, what else?”
Feng Qing’an’s expression became somewhat excited.
The system only gave him one chance, but he himself could certainly create a second one.
He did not forget that the search range of his beast pets was within the range he himself could reach and touch.
In other words, the Underworld Realm where the Innate Yin Spirit is located is now within his reach. He simply hasn’t found the correct method yet, but he already has the condition to reach there.
And at the moment, the most likely one to help him reach the Underworld Realm is Black Mountain. He remembers the woman who originally brought the elixir saying that Black Mountain, once it has completed its metamorphosis, can grow by devouring ghosts from the Ghostly Clan.
“Awoo-”
Excited, Black Mountain began to pour out its heart to Feng Qing’an.
It had gained breathing methods unique to the Ghost Wolf from its bloodline transformation. Not just one, but five different kinds, richer than what the White Wolf bishop had given him.
Furthermore, this was just the most basic legacy contained in the bloodline.
There were also divine powers and unique talents arising from the bloodline.
To match his description, Black Mountain even spat out a cluster of blue
flames from his mouth. The strange-coloured flame not only lacked warmth, but Feng Qing’an also felt a soul-piercing chill from it.
Soul Devouring Ghost Flame!
A divine power derived from the Ghost Wolf bloodline, this is the reason why the Ghost Wolf can grow by devouring the Ghostly Clan.
The Ghostly Clan is shrouded in a mix of different negative energies such as resentment and hatred. Without a method to resolve them, even a great demon beast would go mad from continuously consuming ghosts.
Feng Qing’an listened to Black Mountain’s story patiently, not interrupting. This was his first beast pet with a contract, and now its potential had leaped dramatically. He felt genuinely happy.
Awoo-
Black Mountain retracted his Ghost Flame and continued to converse with Feng Qing’an. Or rather, showing off. After it finished bragging, Feng Qing’an laughed, sensing a new opportunity.
“You can leave and enter the Underworld, but don’t know how to?”
“You need to find the crevice to the Underworld realm!”
At this moment, Feng Qing’an almost jumped out of bed in excitement. This was it, Black Mountain was indeed his means to the Underworld Realm. His judgement was correct after all.
“Black Mountain, put the wolf pack in order, and come back to the village. Near the village, you should be able to find the crevice to the Underworld realm you are searching for!”
Feng Qing’an speculated.
Near the Feng Family Manor, there must be a crevice leading to the Underworld Realm, only opening at a specific time. The rooster crowing pulled him back from the Underworld Realm; this crevice wouldn’t be too far from him.
Awooo-
Upon hearing Feng Qing’an’s words, Black Mountain immediately stood up and let out a loud howl.
He was a Ghost Wolf, able to grow by devouring ghosts. But how many ghosts could there be in the mountain forest? Average beasts did not possess the necessary intelligence, having no particular feelings towards death and therefore wouldn’t generate resentment, naturally, they could not become ghosts.
Besides, the soul of beasts is inherently weak, inferior to the Human Race. Even if they harbor resentment, it’s difficult to become a ghost. Demon beasts definitely meet the conditions, but such creatures are few and far between in the mountains.
As for the common people in the world, under the harsh laws of Da Jin, maintained by the gods and the order established in the Underworld, how could he be allowed to voraciously devour ghosts? The only thing he could do was find a way into the Underworld Realm, for there were countless ghosts to feed on, as learned from his bloodline legacy.
Find the Underworld’s crevice, he would grow rapidly and he wouldn’t need centuries as that woman previously mentioned, to become a great demon.
The moment he thought about this, Black Mountain could not hesitate. He stood up, roared at the wolf pack, whipped up a gust of a gale, escaped from the valley and sprinted towards Feng Family Hill.
When Feng Qing’an was racking his brain, trying to find a way to re-enter the Underworld and meet the Yin Spirit girl again.
In the Underworld Realm, the gorgeous purple forest’s core, The Soul Cleansing Spring, a delicate pale foot kicked up a row of splashes, causing ripples on the water’s surface. The girl was still singing like a nightingale, yet her voice contained more sorrow and loneliness.
Suddenly, the singing stopped. The girl tilted her head, staring at the grass edge where a tree with large leaves was. Yet after a while, nobody pushed the leaves aside and walked onto the grass to stand by her side.
“Liar, big liar.
The girl no longer yearned to sing whilst soaking her feet as she used to. Her delicate face was void of past cheerfulness and laughter. She stood up barefoot, moving about on the grass beside the spring. A cooler breeze blew by, but apart from the rustling of the dense foliage, no other sound could be heard.
When the girl stopped singing, this location became lonely and suppressive. The girl had been accustomed to the silence a long time ago, yet now, she was unable to bear it.
“Feng Qing’an, you big bad guy!”
The events of the previous day replayed in her mind, but today, no one emerged from the bushes to play with her.
Having experienced the fun of conversation and the noise and bustle, she was unable to accept the pain of being alone..
