Chapter 730 - Helian Wei Wei, Jia Jue (1/2)
A hidden ridge could be found within Mount White. Throughout the year, it was blanketed by a thick fog and untouched by sunlight.
The sky outside the ridge was pitch black and filled with lush gray clouds that rolled in an irregular pattern. Towering trees made the path appear awfully eerie.
No coachmen would dare set foot in that place as large boulders often fell onto the narrow carriage path, eventually disappearing over the edge into the seemingly bottomless abyss.
The word ‘tomb’ would make the townspeople tremble and pale, although they also seemed slightly excited.
They were wanted to go, but they were simply too afraid to do so.
If one did not have the Art of Exorcism, no one would dare to step into that realm.
Unless one was sick of being alive, and was simply seeking death.
Legend had it that a devil roamed the path leading to the tomb, waiting to lure pa.s.sersby into sinning.
Thus, hunters dared not go near it even during the day.
Despite so, the elites among the exorcists, known as the true Exorcising Tribe, resided halfway up Mount White.
There were four main factions within the Exorcising Tribe.
Each division was supported by the power of an influential family.
The Ni family was the most prominent. Their exorcising ability was the most powerful, and they did business besides exorcism. Over time, a well-established production line of exorcising products was put into place…”
Helian Wei Wei studied the letter in her hands and narrowed her eyes. The Ni family? Ni Feng? Is this really a mere coincidence?
Helian Wei Wei recalled what the Son of the King of h.e.l.l had mentioned before. The Exorcising Tribe desired the Sarira of the eminent monks for the sole purpose of reviving the dead.
The suggestion for the retrieval of the Sarira was also raised by the Ni Family…
Helian Wei Wei had a hunch that Ni Feng might have already returned since that incident. However, she lacked a suitable physical body, which explains why the relic was needed to carry out the Art of Resurrection.
However, anyone with experience in exorcism should know that the Art of Resurrection was a forbidden art. If the art was activated, the world’s order would be disrupted. Then, the living would perish and the dead would be resurrected. Consequently, resentment would run wild and the human world would plunge into purgatory.
Without the Sarira, the spiritual aura would simply disappear.
Once the Art of Resurrection was activated, ordinary people without spiritual aura would become zombies when revived.
Ni Feng knew this clearly, yet she still wanted to retrieve the Sarira. Clearly, she was making empty promises when she proclaimed that she wanted to safeguard justice in the human world.
Helian Wei Wei’s thoughts wandered as she began a.n.a.lyzing the relations.h.i.+ps between the families.
They could not just enter the contest, so they needed to blend themselves into one of the families somehow.
Besides the Ni family, which one of the remaining three families would be the most suitable and most convenient one for them to ally with…?
“Eat something. Let the others worry about this stuff.” His Highness said in a neutral tone as he reached over and tapped his slender fingers on the word ‘Zhuge’. Then, he sent a piece of pastry into Helian Wei Wei’s mouth.
