Gu Hai did not care how Essence Genesis, Ji Dihong, and Jiang Gautama resolved their grudges. Right now, the most important thing was Shangguan Hen, who had turned into a golden egg.

Gu Hai’s group arrived in Borderless Heavenly Capital two hours later. He told the others to wait outside Vairocana’s residence, then headed inside.

Vairocana was waiting for Gu Hai.

“Mister Gu, did you come because of Essence Genesis? I already took a look at him. This Essence Genesis is formidable!” Vairocana marveled.

“No. It’s not about Essence Genesis but Shangguan Hen. Help me take a look!” Gu Hai immediately said.

After speaking, Gu Hai took out a pill furnace with a flip of his hand.

Thud!

The ground shook slightly when the pill cauldron landed. Vairocana walked over.

“This pill furnace is quite strange. The talisman scripts on it seem to target earthen flames?” Vairocana said curiously.

Gu Hai shook his head as he smiled bitterly. “If you like it, I can give you this pill furnace to fiddle with after saving Shangguan Hen.”

“Oh?” Vairocana opened the lid with a solemn expression.

The golden egg within immediately started jumping.

“Shangguan Hen cultivates the Eight Nines Profound Technique. Your group is the one who created this cultivation technique, merging the techniques of Buddhism, demonic, Daoism, shaman, and animal spirits. How is Shangguan Hen now?” Gu Hai asked worriedly.

Vairocana extended his hand and grabbed the golden egg.

As the golden egg squirmed, it looked like it wanted to consume Vairocana’s flesh.

“The Eight Nines Profound Technique? How many layers has Shangguan Hen reached?” Vairocana frowned.

“Shangguan Hen mentioned that the black tortoise progenitor gave his flesh to Shangguan Hen to cultivate eight hundred thousand years ago, helping Shangguan Hen reach the seventieth layer,” Gu Hai said after recalling.

“Cultivating with flesh? The seventieth layer?” Vairocana narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Yes. That was the only time he cultivated with flesh. He had cultivated through hardship previously when I brought him to the eighteen layers of hell,” Gu Hai explained.

“Although we worked together to create the Eight Nines Profound Technique, no one has truly reached its consummation, as the further one cultivates it, the harder it becomes. It is already a miracle for Shangguan Hen to reach the seventieth layer,” Vairocana said seriously.

“Then is Shangguan Hen still alive?” Gu Hai asked worriedly.

“I’m not sure,” Vairocana replied with a frown.

“What do you mean by you’re not sure?” Gu Hai prompted gravely.

“When the Eight Nines Profound Technique reaches the later stages, it no longer follows a pattern. Instead, it changes for everyone; everyone has their opportunities. Rather, everyone has their tribulations. If they can clear their tribulations, their cultivation will go up by a layer. However, if he cannot, he might remain as this golden egg forever,” Vairocana said with a frown.

“He is undergoing a tribulation now?” Gu Hai clarified, frowning.

Vairocana nodded.

“How can I help him?” Gu Hai asked worriedly.

“He needs flesh and blood now,” Vairocana replied with a frown.

“Flesh and blood?” Gu Hai echoed in surprise.

“Yes. When the black tortoise progenitor gave Shangguan Hen his flesh and blood, he opened a path of cultivating with flesh and blood for Shangguan Hen. However, this path is too difficult to walk. It is not something that can be solved with one or two pieces of blood—it needs a boundless amount. If you just leave him be, he will go around killing people to eat,” Vairocana explained with a frown.

“Going around and killing people to eat? Won’t that make him a demon? Everyone will get killed? Furthermore, the more he kills, the greater the sin he accrues!” Gu Hai said worriedly.

“Indeed. He needs flesh and blood. There’s no need to consider whether he is dead or alive; he has become a demon,” Vairocana said gravely.

Gu Hai’s face sank slightly.

“Mister Gu, Shangguan Hen probably does not want to become a demon. Since he has already turned into this, how about you pass him to me? I’ll purify him and free him, letting him quickly reincarnate,” Vairocana suggested with a soft sigh.

“There’s no need.” Gu Hai immediately placed the golden egg back in the pill furnace.

Creak!

Gu Hai closed the pill furnace’s lid.

“Vairocana, I’ll give you this pill furnace tomorrow,” Gu Hai said seriously.

“You want to save him? Oh, that’s right. Essence Genesis killed billions of life forms in the Southern Sea, which would be the flesh and blood of billions of people. However, the bodies are scattered everywhere. You have no way of gathering them all quickly. Furthermore, those people’s cultivations were too low when they were alive. The quality of their flesh and blood would be too low. Rather than eating ten thousand ordinary people, he might as well eat a powerful animal spirit,” Vairocana said worriedly.

“No. I know a place. I’ll take my leave first!” Gu Hai said.

Vairocana looked at Gu Hai. Eventually, he nodded, not stopping Gu Hai.

Gu Hai walked out of the courtyard.

The Unborn Man, Kong Xuan, the Mosquito Daoist, Ao Sheng, Mo Yike, Chen Tianshan, and the others waited outside.

“Chen Tianshan, Ao Sheng will replace Ao Shun from here on as the prime of the Han Imperial Dynasty’s dragons. Make arrangements for him first,” Gu Hai instructed.

“Yes!” Chen Tianshan answered.

“Ao Sheng, Kong Xuan, you just obtained inheritances and need to regulate your energies. Remain for now and enter closed-door cultivation to make your breakthroughs,” Gu Hai instructed.

“Yes, Your Reverence!” the two answered.

“Mosquito Daoist, Unborn Man, let’s go back to the Corpse Mound World,” Gu Hai said.

“Yes!” the two answered.

The Unborn Man extended his hand and waved.

Buzz!

A passageway to the nether realm suddenly opened. Gu Hai, the Unborn Man, and the Mosquito Daoist stepped in.

Whoosh!

The passage to the nether realm vanished as quickly as it appeared.

The group emerged in the nether realm near a Blood Uniform Guard outpost.

Countless bats fought a horde of skeletons in the distance.

“Huh? The Blood Uniform Guards are fighting with the Myriad Bone Sinister Mountain’s skeleton soldiers?” the Unborn Man said in shock.

Countless blood race members were preventing those skeletons from entering a valley emitting scarlet light into the sky.

“Move aside! Let us search the place!” a skeleton general shouted.

Countless skeletons rushed over from the surroundings.

“Protect the Lord Envoy Commander!” The Blood Uniform Guards blocked the front.

An intense battle took place.

The Mosquito Daoist’s face sank as he immediately stepped forward.

Boom!

The Mosquito Daoist attacked, instantly knocking away many skeletons.

“Who are you? How dare you obstruct my Myriad Bone Sinister Mountain?!” the skeletons roared furiously.

“Your Reverence!” the Blood Uniform Guards cried out with wild joy.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Hai asked, frowning.

“The lord envoy commander might have caused too big a commotion while in closed-door cultivation, when the scarlet light soared in the sky. That attracted these skeletons. Naturally, we could not let these skeletons interrupt the lord envoy commander’s cultivation, so…,” a Blood Uniform Guard explained respectfully.

Gu Hai looked, then waved his hand.

Whoosh!

The Gu’s Immortal Firmament collected the entire valley, including Chang Ming, into itself.

“Alright, Chang Ming is with us. Find a place to settle down first. I’ll send him to meet with you after he comes out,” Gu Hai instructed.

“Yes!” the Blood Uniform Guards answered.

Whoosh!

The Blood Uniform Guards immediately scattered into the surroundings.

“Halt!” the skeletons shouted furiously.

Boom!

The Mosquito Daoist waved his hand, again knocking the skeletons into the air.

“Just ignore them. Let’s go!” Gu Hai said.

Whoosh!

Gu Hai’s group vanished into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

The skeletons felt depressed.

Buzz!

Space suddenly trembled, and a blue light appeared. There seemed to be a massive figure within the blue light.

“Salutations, Bone Deity!” the countless skeletons immediately saluted while bowing.

“This deity sensed the Bone Ancestor’s remnant aura here earlier. It’s gone now? What happened here earlier?” the Bone Deity’s image asked indifferently.

“Ah?” the skeletons responded in shock.

“All of you, return to the Bone Deity Palace and explain it clearly!” the Bone Deity’s image said seriously.

“Yes!” The skeletons’ voices quavered. The skeletons were apparently afraid to return to the Bone Deity Palace; however, they had no choice but to return.

------

Gu Hai, the Mosquito Daoist, and the Unborn Man flew quickly. Four hours later, they arrived outside the Corpse Mound World.

Many soldiers had been stationed outside the Corpse Mound World. However, Gu Hai’s group easily infiltrated the perimeter without anyone noticing.

Once they entered the place, they were in the Thirty-Five Line-Pair World Go Puzzle. Traversing that was like an open plain to Gu Hai.

They did not go to the eternal Buddhist pagoda and disturb Gu Han. Instead, they headed straight for the central corpse pit.

A few remnant resentful spirits howled outside the corpse pit, but they could not harm Gu Hai.

“Is this where all the corpses of the animal spirits and shamans from the ancient war were placed?” Gu Hai asked.

“Yes, Your Reverence. This corpse pit does not look big, but the corpses here are boundless, and they have never rotted, maybe because the resentment here is too strong,” the Mosquito Daoist explained.

“That’s good!” Gu Hai said with slightly narrowed eyes.

After speaking, Gu Hai took out the pill furnace with a flip of his hand.

Creak!

The golden egg leaped out after Gu Hai opened the lid.

Then Gu Hai tossed the golden egg into the corpse pit below.

Bang!

When the golden egg fell into the corpse pit, it trembled.

Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!

Crunching and chewing sounds came from the bottom of the corpse pit. The golden egg that Shangguan Hen had become quickly and happily consumed the corpses of the many ancient animal spirit kings and powerful shamans.

“Roar!”

Coo!

The remnant resentful spirits rushed over, but they could not harm the golden egg. The golden egg gave off a golden light, which felt like intense flames to the resentful spirits. It burned the resentful spirits, inflicting agony and making them flee.

“Shangguan Hen is eating the corpses?” the Mosquito Daoist said in shock.

“Just let him eat. As long as Shangguan Hen can recover…,” Gu Hai sighed softly.

“Yes!” The Mosquito Daoist and the Unborn Man said nothing more.

Despite the bottom of the corpse pit being pitch-dark, Gu Hai could still see. There were indeed countless animal spirit corpses. The golden egg had just eaten a humongous leopard spirit corpse and was continuing to eat.

After letting out a bated breath, he stopped worrying about Shangguan Hen.

Then he extended his hand and waved.

Whoosh!

Chang Ming suddenly appeared before Gu Hai.

“Your Reverence, many thanks for protecting this subject. It was a close call!” Chang Ming said extremely respectfully.

“A close call?” Gu Hai parroted in confusion.

“Indeed. This subject was refining the Blood Shaman’s deity. Unexpectedly, some of its resentment lingered and tried to overwhelm this subject’s consciousness. Had I been interrupted, this subject would have been possessed. Fortunately, Your Reverence appeared,” Chang Ming said gratefully.

“The Blood Shaman’s deity? We recall the Blood Shaman’s deity kept repeating he died a wronged death?” Gu Hai said with a frown.

“Yes. When I refined his resentment earlier, I obtained some of his memories. He did indeed die a wronged death,” Chang Ming said with a bitter smile.

“Oh?”

“He was an elder of the shaman race’s blood cultivation and had fought and gained one hundred victories in the war. According to his memories, the shamans could have eradicated the animal spirit race in an overwhelming victory. However, Jiangchen went mad for some reason. The Blood Shaman could not accept it and objected. In the end, Jiangchen killed him. He died at the hands of the shaman commander, Jiangchen, so he died with regrets, filled with overwhelming resentment,” Chang Ming explained.

“Oh? Jiangchen killed him? Why?” the Mosquito Daoist said in shock.

Chang Ming shook his head, indicating he did not know.
