I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players
Chapter 751 - 231: The Absurd Tomb-Raiding Five
The group gathered information and roughly understood the entire area.
The Longevity Imperial Mausoleum is also a cluster of tombs.
The Longevity Dynasty has gone through dozens of generations of Saints, but not all Saints have turned to Embers. Among these Longevity tombs, seven Saints from history are buried.
Most notably, the Embers of the first Emperor of Longevity are also located here.
The founding Emperor must have been a formidable person.
The Food God looked at everyone and said:
"The tombs are basically cities from their childhood, and what we need to find are the true forms of the seven Saints hidden amongst the people."
The cities within the tombs are one's own childhood.
Generally, childhood is when life is fixed, and most people's lifelong obsessions are defined at some point in their childhood.
Therefore, the owner of the tomb will repeatedly stimulate this key node in their life, the origin of their obsession.
Through repeated cycles, one day they might fully awaken and proclaim: today I realize who I am.
The tomb can possibly awaken someone.
But finding him is difficult, as he could be a beggar in the tomb, a servant, a wealthy Scholar...
Like in the previous tomb city, the tomb owner Li Wanqi was a little girl in a couple's dining shop.
Can you find her?
And now, the tomb is several times larger, how can one find the tomb owner?
"Do you guys have any ideas?" Bai Xingling suddenly asked, "Should we directly rob the tomb or do something else?"
"That depends on you."
The No-Life Whale has plans during this era.
It is said that the ancestor buried with them, the first Mother of Non-Life, is right here!
Years ago, when fighting for the imperial power, the first Mother of Non-Life was defeated, but considering the camaraderie, the Emperor of Longevity buried this ally and rival here.
But how can the No-Life Whale find the first Mother of Non-Life?
It's also quite difficult.
"What do you think?" Bai Xingling turned his head, asking the Food God.
The Food God looked bewildered: "I'll follow your lead."
All indecisive?
Bai Xingling was somewhat silent.
"Don't hold back, it's wasting time."
Suddenly, one of the taciturn Female Cultivators spoke, "One is a descendant of the Emperor of Longevity, here to seek the Emperor's legacy; the other is a descendant of the first No-Life Sect, also here for the ancestor's legacy."
Bai Xingling, the No-Life Whale were startled.
After the Female Cultivator spoke, she looked at the last male cultivator beside her, "Cursed, what do you think?"
"No need to hide or conceal, once inside here, we should aim for the major targets." The male cultivator chuckled, "Did you have any power during the Longevity Dynasty?"
The Female Cultivator frowned, "The Longevity Dynasty was millions of years ago, I've gone through Nirvana several times, my memory is a bit blurry, and during that time, my Phoenix Race never had the habit of intervening in the affairs of the Human Race. However, at that time, there were many wars between the White Tiger Race and the Longevity Dynasty."
The Phoenix Race has too few members.
They have always loved peace, ignoring external matters, and never wanted to intervene.
In matters of the Longevity Dynasty, she really had no understanding.
Cursed chuckled lightly:
"During the Longevity Dynasty, I did have some power, a certain organization among the people was founded by me... with this accompaniment tomb, city after city is buried here, it should also include this organization, I'll look for people in a moment."
"Alright." Phoenix Yi nodded, "Among us five, three have connections in the Longevity Dynasty, and two have significant backgrounds."
Unexpectedly, two major figures sneaked into the group of five, targeting Bai Xingling and No-Life Whale.
Because the two big shots apparently confirmed through some methods that Bai Xingling is a descendant of the first Emperor of Longevity, clearly here to recognize relatives.
The No-Life Whale is a descendant of the first Mother of Non-Life.
Among them, Bai Xingling was the most silent, perhaps he has been somewhat reckless lately, just learned some of the master's skills, and is back to claim the master's legacy, only to be targeted?
"Why is there an extra one here?" Phoenix Yi had a hint of surprise, looking at the Food God, "Want to eliminate the member of the Meiling Fish clan?"
The Food God was silent for a while.
Bai Xingling, you really put me in a bind.
Indeed, when following the protagonist, there's bound to be all sorts of bizarre, sinister events, life's too thrilling.
"No need to kill him."
Cursed waved his hand, with a very good temperament, "Meeting is fate, now we are all Auspicious Beasts, interfering with the Qi Fortune from a mysterious realm, him being able to accidentally blend among the four of us indicates he might be of help to us."
After becoming Immortal Spirit Root, their Luck is indeed not something to boast about.
It can influence one's fortune on a small scale, allowing things to go more smoothly.
And Bai Xingling is quite peculiar, his fortune isn't bad.
In their team of three with excellent fortune, the fact that the other party could just slip in indicates that this Meiling Fish might be of help to them.
The Food God hurriedly said, "Rest assured, my Immortal Spirit Root, connecting fate and ties, will surely be beneficial to you."
Cursed nodded, "Great Divine Techniques, I've heard of you, previously you made two male cultivators kiss, perhaps you truly might offer us some assistance."
"Enough chatting," Phoenix Yi said, "We're here to take the lead; who should we look for first?"
Now, there are three routes before them.
1. Find the identity of the No-Life descendant and seek out the original Mother of Non-Life in this tomb.
2. Find the identity of the Longevity descendant and seek out the original Emperor of Longevity in this tomb.
3. Cursed has organized forces in every era, first look for Cursed's forces as a base.
To be on the safe side, they chose 3.
Soon, after some simple inquiries, Cursed swiftly led the group to a secret organization sect, located in a large building.
[Relieve Worries Tower]
"Master of the Tower!"
"Master, why have you come?"
Entering an elegant and impressive pavilion, showing the waist badge, a group of Embers surrounded them.
These Embers maintain the logic of their former lives, still running this force.
The Food God watched from the side, a bit envious, not surprising for truly a VIP; does he have an organization hidden in each ancestral tomb?
This is truly a big shot.
However.
Another Immortal, Phoenix Yi seems a bit lacking; you've lived so long, yet you've left no organization in history?
"Everyone, come in."
Cursed led everyone into the room and asked the members of the organization to gather some intel.
Looking at the familiar pavilion, Cursed showed a few signs of nostalgia, introducing, "This is an organization I've established throughout many dynasty eras, the Relieve Worries Tower."
"Resolving worries for the common folk, akin to a trouble-solving agency, mainly helping those kind-hearted cultivators who are embroiled in disputes though they don't seek conflict themselves, involving quite a few pitiful lovers."
No-Life Whale quickly said, "You are indeed benevolent, master." ππ«ππ²π¨πππππ―ππΉ.ππ¨πΊ
"Haha."
Cursed chuckled, "You could say I was bored and did some good deeds; it's merely self-fulfillment, enjoying the pleasure of helping others. And for me, it's also a sub-line force base for developing Ghost Country."
He didn't want to proclaim himself as some honored moral figure.
He is someone who enjoys peace, not seeking fame or profits.
Yet he knew better than anyone that to preserve this peace requires extremely formidable strength.
This charitable organization also gathers cultivators who don't seek fame or profits, helping a bit in life to forge goodwill. If they become Embers after death, they are added to his Ghost Country forces.
His forces are composed of Pure Ascetics huddled together for warmth, not accepting the ambitious ones.
Soon, local intel was brought forth.
At a mere glance, Cursed showed a hint of strangeness: "Something's amiss."
"What's amiss?" Phoenix Yi asked.
"Our Relieve Worries Tower's force here is unusually large."
Cursed smiled, "From experience in tomb raiding, when a force's proportion in a tomb exceeds that of reality, it likely had a great impact on this person's childhood life! Because this is a world of his mind image... the Self-Transformation world, the Embers accompanying the tomb will be assimilated into the tomb's locals."
Phoenix Yi showed a strange smile, "Perhaps during the Emperor of Longevity's childhood, he was one of the cultivators your organization helped with charity?"
"Not clear." Cursed shook his head, "By the time I paid attention to the Longevity Dynasty, it was an uprising army sweeping across three continents; even though I always watched them establish a dynasty and eventually perish, I never truly investigated."
He's not a trouble-seeking ambitious person; if others don't provoke him, why should he challenge the human dynasty?
"Then let's observe the Relieve Worries Tower guests in each stronghold a bit longer..."
Bai Xingling, as the protagonist, was naturally dignified, "The target can be tentatively set as a male, around adolescence, with decent talent."
"Perhaps, it could be positioned as one male and one female." No-Life Whale chuckled, "Perhaps the original Mother of Non-Life and Emperor of Longevity knew each other since their early loose cultivator days, then overthrew the old dynasty together."
The Food God nodded vigorously, a bystander state, "Traditional stories often have one male and one female founding a dynasty together, falling in love and battling at the end; it's a classic story."
"Looks like there are clues from the start." Phoenix Yi smiled; they aren't here for tomb raiding. These tomb resources aren't valuable to them; they are here to find the tomb's owner.
"It's because nowadays, as an Auspicious Immortal Beast, everything aligns as intended." Cursed said softly. Of course, him being Cursed, a Disaster Beast, has isolated disasters from himself, relying on Phoenix Yi's auspicious qi to be this smooth.
And so, after some diligently scanning, they began to sit in the Relieve Worries Tower, holding recent guest files, meticulously checking each.
Preparing to find the legendary tomb owner, the original Emperor of Longevity, and to know his childhood growth trajectory and what kind of trump card allowed him to establish a powerful Longevity Dynasty; the Emperor of Longevity's rise must be a fascinating and enthralling legendary tale.
