Chapter 506 - 249: Murder Ghost_3
"Think about it, snatching one’s wife right in front of their family, can Senior Song tolerate this? He immediately drew his Giant Sword and slashed at my uncle. My uncle, being a Heroic Spirit, was naturally not afraid. Surrounded by Spiritual Light, and with a ’whoosh’ sound, there was..."
"Boom!"
The sudden opening of a tunnel ahead abruptly cut off Jiang Miaoyin’s voice, and Chu Xiu withdrew his gaze and looked forward.
After breaking through a stone wall, the scene in front of him opened up. An unimaginably massive underground city appeared before him!
This was a clearly man-made excavated space, with the vertical height alone being several kilometers. The width and length were no different from a modern city, with countless intricate passageways crisscrossing like a network of veins, resembling a vast ant nest.
Unfortunately, the past glory had faded away. What met the eye were ruins of collapsed skyscrapers, yellow sand swirling in the air, and piles of rubble like mountains, completely covering the city. One could only catch glimpses of the city’s past prosperity and magnificent splendor through these remnants.
Chu Xiu frowned at the sight in front of him and turned to Jiang Miaoyin: "Did you already know it would be like this?"
The city before them had lost all color and features over the long years, making it difficult to discern the location of the Soul Hall.
Jiang Miaoyin chuckled: "Senior, you should know that our Jiang Family and Song Family have always gotten along well, right? It is precisely because the Awakened from the Song Family has already set out to explore that I have been sent to receive you."
"Thus, we naturally have means of communication between us."
"That person arrived at one of the cities yesterday. Like here, that city had been destroyed, leaving only ruins. It was impossible to locate the Soul Hall. According to senior experts, it is likely that the battle with the Ghost King years ago led to the destruction of the city, even altering its terrain."
Chu Xiu didn’t speak, only carefully looking down, realizing that the city below was indeed "uneven," likely shattered by the Ghost King’s formidable Power, causing the city’s collapse and displacement.
This made it difficult even to determine the city’s central area.
Furthermore, the unfortunate thing was that as soon as Chu Xiu arrived, he activated the Detection Compass, but sadly, the Soul Hall’s Yin Qi gathering device was likely depleted, as the distribution of Yin Qi in the area showed no noticeable differences.
Seeing Chu Xiu’s somewhat displeased expression, Jiang Miaoyin quickly said: "I had no intention of deceiving you, Senior. It was simply that before reaching the city, it was impossible to judge the specific situation. I hope you will not hold it against me."
"Besides, with your Divine Techniques, even without cooperation from me, you are bound to find the location of the Soul Hall. I’m merely trying to save you some time, Senior."
Looking at Jiang Miaoyin’s earnest face, Chu Xiu sighed and gestured, "Let’s hear your method."
Jiang Miaoyin smiled: "My Talent is Curse Spirit Fusion (SS), allowing my Curse Spirits to merge into a more powerful form."
"In the early stages of my development, my family planned for me to focus on support and reconnaissance. I was responsible for following the big shots to provide convenience. So, in the early stages, the Curse Spirits I created and merged were of the Detection type."
"To be honest, even many Heroic Spirit seniors cannot compare to me in detection. By collaborating with me, you will undoubtedly significantly reduce the time needed for your exploration, Senior."
As Jiang Miaoyin spoke, a glint of interest flashed across Chu Xiu’s face.
After a brief contemplation, he asked, "What are your conditions?"
"I’m not greedy," Jiang Miaoyin replied with a beaming smile, holding up one finger. "I only want the Holy Spirit that guards the Soul Hall."
