Chapter 775: Searching for the Land of Extreme Yin
"Just lucky."
Yang Cheng smiled slightly and briefly explained how he obtained the Sun Essence Gold.
After listening, Chen Shixiang looked at Yang Cheng with even more admiration and exclaimed, "You’re willing to spend a billion and even agreed to help treat diseases. If it were someone else, they would definitely take advantage of the situation, maybe even ask Patriarch Jiang for money."
"You’re indeed a good kid. I haven’t misjudged you. Entrusting the Moon Golden Wheel to someone like you puts my mind at ease. You might possess more powerful weapons in the future, but remember, the weapons forged by my hands must not fall into the hands of the wicked, otherwise, I won’t rest in peace even in my death."
"Master Chen, rest assured. I wouldn’t bear to give away a weapon personally forged by you. Besides, the power of the Moon Golden Wheel depends on the user’s skill level. As I grow stronger, so will the power of my weapons."
Yang Cheng stated with great confidence, gently stroking the Moon Golden Wheel, the red and green glows on it flickered slightly, almost as if playing games with him.
Chen Shixiang stared at him for a while, then suddenly burst out laughing, "Great! Good kid! In my life, I’ve only admired a few people, and you’re one of them!"
"With this piece of Sun Essence Gold, the Sun Golden Wheel can be forged in just three days! Rest assured, I’ll craft a divine artifact for you!"
Yang Cheng nodded slightly and said, "Thanks, Master Chen. I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll leave now. If there’s anything you need, let Wu Ji call me."
"Alright!"
Chen Shixiang nodded with a smile, caressing the Sun Essence Gold fondly, oblivious to when Yang Cheng and Cheng Qiyue left.
On the other side, Yang Cheng took Cheng Qiyue to Zhonghai’s largest cemetery, where the cemetery manager warmly greeted them, "What services do you need? Are you looking to buy a grave for someone?"
Yang Cheng looked around, observing if there was any Yin Qi nearby, but strangely, despite the many ashes stored here, the cemetery felt devoid of Yin Qi.
Moreover, the environment was excellent, with lush green grass and a picturesque view that lifted one’s spirits. The deceased here all rested in such a beautiful environment, likely without any lingering resentment.
However, the Land of Extreme Yin is akin to a mass grave, and although this cemetery doesn’t have mass graves, the principle remains the same. With so many ashes, how could there be no Yin Qi?
"Sir, Madam, you..."
The manager smiled awkwardly.
Cheng Qiyue then spoke, "My parents passed away, and I’d like to find a suitable grave for them. Could you show us around?"
"No problem."
The manager agreed and invited them to tour the cemetery.
Previously, they had only seen the outside through the window. Now, seeing it up close, the beautiful environment impressed them even more. The sun illuminated the area, casting warmth upon the tombstones, devoid of any hint of Yin Qi, instead evoking a comforting warmth.
Yang Cheng walked around and confirmed that this was not the Land of Extreme Yin. The cemetery and a mass grave were entirely different; those buried here were likely from well-off families, nurtured since childhood, so even as spirits, their resentment wouldn’t be deep, unlike the wronged souls in a mass grave.
"Do you know where there are ghost sightings in Zhonghai?"
He suddenly asked.
The manager was instantly dumbfounded, looking at him with some confusion.
"Don’t misunderstand, I’m just curious, casually asking. If you don’t know, that’s fine."
Just as the words fell, the manager quickly waved his hand, saying, "Don’t overthink, you can’t judge the place by the number of tombstones; there really haven’t been any ghost sightings here."
"I’m asking if there are ghost sightings elsewhere."
Yang Cheng said, looking helpless.
"I’ve only heard about a haunted house in Zhonghai, where real ghosts supposedly entered. Three people couldn’t escape and later mysteriously disappeared."
Yang Cheng shook his head; that wasn’t the Land of Extreme Yin he was looking for. The disappearance of three people was surely due to abduction, with ghost rumors deliberately spread to disrupt investigations.
"Other than that haunted house, the scariest place would be an abandoned hospital in Zhonghai. When the hospital was first built, it was grand, but soon after, ghost stories emerged, with many patients claiming to have witnessed ghosts firsthand."
Hearing the manager’s words, Yang Cheng raised his eyebrows, showing some interest, and asked, "So it was abandoned due to ghost sightings?"
"I don’t really know. It was said that the patient mortality rate was high, coupled with ghost stories, and gradually it lost visitors until it was abandoned."
"Later, someone tried to demolish and rebuild the hospital, but accidents occurred, and afterward, no one dared touch it, and even nearby residents moved away."
After speaking, the manager felt a chill down his back, as if a gust of cold wind blew by.
"Sir, why are you asking about this?"
She asked curiously.
"Just found it interesting, casually asking. Where’s the abandoned hospital you mentioned?"
Yang Cheng asked, pretending to be casual.
The manager provided the address, and Yang Cheng and Cheng Qiyue made an excuse to leave, quickly driving to their destination.
Originally, it was dusk, with remnants of the sunset lingering, but upon arriving at the abandoned hospital’s entrance, darkness had engulfed the surroundings, cold winds blowing ominously, instilling a chill.
The abandoned hospital’s gate was rusted, its lettering blurred, the peeling paint on the walls exposing patches, and the interior was overgrown with waist-high grass, clearly untouched for a long time.
"Yang Cheng, this place looks terrifying. Could it really be the so-called Land of Extreme Yin?"
Cheng Qiyue spoke in hushed tones, fearing to disturb any spirits residing there.
"Places with heavy Yin Qi can be called the Land of Extreme Yin, so it’s not just one location. With Miss Jiang’s blood in hand, we can test if there’s Moon Marrow Blood Platinum inside the hospital."
Yang Cheng appeared calm, while Cheng Qiyue looked pale and trembled uncontrollably.
Her courage wasn’t small, but upon nearing this place, she couldn’t control her physiological response, indicating something terrifying indeed lurked within the hospital.
"Don’t be afraid, even if there are wronged souls, they can’t harm you. If you’re too scared, you can wait outside for me."
Yang Cheng’s words had barely finished when Cheng Qiyue shook her head vigorously.
"I want to follow you; being by your side is the safest. You possess the Pure Yang Dragon Physique, surely the spirits would fear you!"
After speaking, Cheng Qiyue clung tightly to Yang Cheng’s arm, following him step by step into the abandoned hospital.
Dense weeds lay before them, and worried about her fear, Yang Cheng hoisted her up by the waist and strode boldly forward.
After all, he’d used X-ray Vision to scan, ensuring nothing lurked in the grass. Even if ghosts were present, they posed no real threat, as they’d be no match for him anyway.
