Chapter 203: Traces of Hanba and the Thought of Reaping Both Both
As the two of them chased and fled, the two of them, or rather, the two ghosts, soon arrived on the ground.
Just as Su Mu was about to be caught up, a ghostly howl rang out!
Then,’Tang Long’ saw a black gas surge over and swallow him.
In an instant, Tang Long turned into a puddle of corpse water and died!
..
“Ah!”
In the dim room, a somewhat bewitching exclamation came.
“Sister, what’s wrong? Did something happen?”
As soon as the exclamation ended, an anxious voice sounded.
“Tang Long…He was dead. I was instantly killed. I didn’t even see my opponent’s appearance clearly.”
“What? How could this be? After all, that guy was a Xiantian Realm warrior. With the support of his sister’s demonic power, he could erupt with extraordinary combat strength in a short period of time. How could he be killed instantly? Wasn’t there no powerful martial artists or Qi Practitioners here?”
“I didn’t expect it either…Just as they were about to enter the earth vein, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared behind them. I controlled Tang Long to chase after him and was instantly killed.”
“In other words, there is more than one person?”
“Not bad! Someone has their eyes on me. It’s very likely that it’s an organization! This Da Qian…As expected, the waters are deep!”
“Sister, what should we do next?”
“Follow according to the original plan. Be careful when you move. Once things can’t be done, we’ll immediately return to Fusang.”
“Of course, it’s not that easy to make me retreat!”
“If we discover Hanba’s location, we might be able to fight!”
“This might be the only chance I have in my life…”
“Got it, sister! We will help you!”
….
On the other side, Su Mu controlled another powerful ghost to kill Tang Long.
Then, the formation disappeared and the earth vein could no longer be seen.
Su Mu lowered his head and looked at the ground beneath his feet, his face slightly sunken.
As the earth energy surged, Su Mu could vaguely sense some strange aura.
However, they were too far away to tell what it was.
After remembering the location of this wasteland, Su Mu rushed back as fast as he could and told the dog god what had happened here.
“Earth vein? Why was the fox demon probing the earth vein? This was a dangerous thing that could not be touched easily!”
The dog god was puzzled.
It had lived for many years and was very knowledgeable.
If he had been at the scene, he might have been able to see something.
However, just based on Su Mu’s narration, it was impossible to perfectly recreate the scene.
Moreover, the earth vein would constantly move. If he continued to search for it, it would be a waste of effort.
“It’s fine. As long as the fox demoness makes a move, she will definitely reveal her fox tail. I’ll take her down sooner or later!”
As he spoke, Su Mu’s sharp gaze turned towards the distant Fragrance Restaurant.
It was as if she could see through the layers of obstacles and see through that foxy figure!
This time, he had to subdue her.
Only then could he advance to the Martial God Realm!
※※※※※※
For the next half a month, Su Mu and the dog god hid in the dark, quietly observing the nine-tailed fox’s every move.
After the previous incident, the demon fox was much more vigilant.
She had left the Wafting Fragrance Restaurant many times in the middle of the night, but Su Mu and Dog God couldn’t keep up with her and were left behind halfway.
However, after a few times, Su Mu and Dog God gradually figured out her movements and discovered something.
As for Tang Long, the missing citizens of Tianjin were overjoyed. They were just short of holding a three-day and three-night banquet.
After a period of time, Tang Long still did not show up, so his family property was divided up by various people.
From then on, there was no such person in Tianjin!
These weren’t things that Su Mu and Dog God cared about.
That night, after following Nine-Tailed Fox again, they finally made a major discovery!
..
Although the Nine-Tailed Fox was very cunning, it managed to shake off Su Mu and the Dog God each time.
However, after so many days, dozens of tracks were intertwined, and there would always be some clues.
Su Mu and Quan Shen found a cave based on these clues.
“There should be an earth vein below this place.”
The dog god twitched his nose and said firmly.
“What do you want to do?”
Su Mu didn’t know much about earth veins, so he asked for the dog god’s opinion.
“Let’s go down and take a look.”
As he spoke, Inu God opened the white paper fan in his hand and fanned it three times in the cave.
In the first flash, specks of white light appeared, illuminating the entire cave.
The second time, an earth dragon flew out. After it grew to a hundred meters long, it desperately dug down.
On the third strike, a stone bridge appeared under Su Mu and Dog God’s feet. It went straight into the ground and followed closely behind the Earth Dragon.
“Let’s go.”
After performing a spell, the dog god called out proudly and stepped onto the stone bridge.
However, Su Mu didn’t really like this kind of fancy casting method, he preferred to be practical.
After stepping onto the stone bridge, Su Mu lightly stomped his feet and casually said:
“Not bad. I wonder how it is compared to that demon fox.”
“Oh, I almost forgot. She seems to be preparing to enter the Martial God Realm, so she shouldn’t care about these things.”
Hearing this, Inukami’s face fell.
The white paper fan that had been shaking in its hand earlier was also put away.
Damn it! How heart-wrenching!
..
The two of them silently walked down the stone bridge.
After about a thousand meters, the two of them felt a surging and unpredictable aura!
“We’re almost there. The earth vein is right below us.”
The dog god’s expression was solemn, and he no longer extended the stone bridge.
From Su Mu’s point of view, this was just an ordinary underground world. Other than the aura, there was nothing unusual.
However, the dog god’s eyes lit up with a blue light. It stared down as if it could see the surging earth vein.
“This is a shallow earth vein, only a dozen meters wide.”
“It is said that ten thousand meters underground, there are earth veins that are a hundred meters wide, or even a thousand meters wide!”
“Some special and powerful earth veins are called dragon veins. They have the ability to determine the fate of a country!”
After a brief explanation, the dog god used its divine power again.
Its demonic aura circulated, and its nose lit up. Streams of aura were sucked into it like an inverted vortex.
“Oh ~~~ Spiritual Qi, Yin Qi, Fiendish Qi…”
The dog god closed his eyes and carefully analyzed the aura in the earth vein.
Suddenly, it trembled and opened its eyes. It said in surprise,
“There seems to be a trace of corpse qi mixed in the earth vein, and it’s corpse qi with yang qi!”
As he said that, the dog god quickly sniffed again and then said firmly,
“It can’t be wrong. There is indeed a very special Corpse Qi!”
Hearing this, Su Mu immediately remembered that he had been following Tang Long and had been exposed after being attacked by the Yang Qi.
“Corpse Qi with Yang Fiendish Qi? Could it be…”
Su Mu’s expression froze as he thought of a possibility. He subconsciously looked at the dog god.
The dog god also looked at Su Mu.
Their eyes met and they said two words at the same time.
“Hanba!”
..
At this moment, Su Mu and Dog God both understood why the Nine-Tailed Fox was searching for the earth vein in the Jizhou region.
Hanba was indeed not completely destroyed. Instead, he was sealed somewhere in Jizhou.
Even though there were all sorts of restrictions, Hanba’s dense and terrifying corpse aura had been invading the surroundings. There was even some aura that seeped into the earth vein!
The nine-tailed fox wanted to find Hanba’s location through the earth vein and obtain the possibility of breaking through to the Martial God Realm!
This gave Su Mu a bold idea.
Why did he have to subdue the Nine-Tailed Fox?
Wouldn’t Hanba be even more fragrant!
Or perhaps… He wanted them all!
Thinking of this, Su Mu’s eyes lit up.
It seemed that his plan had to be changed.
