Chapter 166 : Ants Moving a Coffin (2) (2/2)
However, even with the grand sects and powerful nations from these external forces present, the Grand Middle Territory’s cultivators still had the hometown advantage. For now, the powers within the Grand Middle Territory still controlled the whole situation.
At this moment, countless grand sects and powerful nations and even Immortal Emperor’s lineages were calculating the Underworld Boat’s arrival time; especially the ones that had predecessors who wished to be buried inside the boat, they were especially meticulous.
Meanwhile, inside the Ancient Heavenly Corpse Burial Ground, Li Qiye’s group climbed the mountains and traversed the rivers under Li Qiye’s accurate directions to finally leave the Ancient Heavenly Corpse Burial Ground.
Outside of the burial ground, Li Qiye immediately took off the ragged clothing on his body, including the Frightened Corpse Gong, and placed them inside the Heavenly Ancient Treasure Chest. Then, he garnered all of his strength and threw the treasure chest into the burial ground. The treasure chest was like a shooting star across the sky and it disappeared into thin air.
Li Qiye’s actions stunned everyone, including Li Shuangyan’s group.
“Big Brother, it’s, it’s, it’s a treasure ah! With this thing, aren’t we free to move in and out of the Heavenly Ancient Corpse Burial Ground? Why throw it away?” Nan Huairen was flabbergasted and couldn’t help but to shout. If there weren’t Earth Corpses walking around, he would have rushed in to find it.
“Heavenly Ancient Earth Messenger, Heavenly Ancient Corpse Treasure, Heavenly Ancient Frightened Corpse Gong… Only when you are the Earth Messenger would you have their effects.” Li Qiye looked at him once and freely said: “This group of treasures coming from the Heavenly Ancient Corpse Burial Ground… With this sealed treasure chest, as long as you understand the rules and the ceremony of the transaction, even if you aren’t an Earth Corpse, you would still be able to become a Heavenly Ancient Earth Messenger!”
“Heavenly Ancient Earth Messenger is a.s.sumed by Earth Corpses? Not cultivators?” Hearing this, the group of Qu Daoli got the creeps, especially Xu Pei. As a young girl, she also got the s.h.i.+vers.
“Of course not.” Li Qiye said: “To the Earth Corpses, if they had the opportunity to become free again and escape the Heavenly Ancient Corpse Burial Ground, at that time, they would either become a Treasure Lord or an Earth Immortal, or they would truly rest in peace at this place, no longer being an Earth Corpse! Every generation, the Ancient Heavenly Corpse Burial Ground will release some kits for Heavenly Ancient Earth Messengers! Earth Corpses with fortune would obtain them and have the chance to trade for their freedom. Whether they could trade for their freedom in the end, this depends on their transactions!”
“The transaction is very simple, either find a Treasure Lord or an Earth Immortal. However, whether it is a Treasure Lord or Earth Immortal, once the transaction begins, only three trades are permitted at most for each person. During the transaction process, whenever it is unsuccessful, both sides will immediately stop. Even if both are still only in the first round of transactions, they still must stop immediately! Therefore, both sides taking out their Corpse Treasures or regular treasures require some wisdom!” At this point, Li Qiye pointed at his head.
Then he smilingly continued: “If you are a capable gambler, then go to an Earth Immortal. Maybe with just one transaction, it will be heavenly frightening! However, many Earth Immortals don’t care for Corpse Treasures. This means that you have a great chance for the transaction to fail, and this would completely waste the Heavenly Ancient Earth Messenger’s kit!”
“Earth Immortal’s treasures from the transactions can allow for freedom?” Li Shuangyan asked in surprise.
Li Qiye shook his head and said: “Not necessarily, it depends on what items you traded for. As long as it is heaven-shaking enough, then it really has the potential to trade for freedom.”
“Oldest Brother, from the past till now, were there Earth Corpses that traded successfully?” Qu Daoli couldn’t help but ask.
This question left Li Qiye’s eyes in a deep ponder. In the end, he didn’t answer this matter.
“Haha, Big Brother, even though we were finished with the trades, but, this Heavenly Ancient Earth Messenger’s kit… Good or bad, it is still a treasure. How could you throw it away?” Nan Huairen was still greedy and asked while laughing.
Li Qiye glared at him and lightly said: “These items do not belong to the outside world. If the kit was still sealed, then it would be easy to deal with. Heh, but if it was opened, whether you are finished with the transaction or not, or if there are still Corpse Treasures leftover, if you take it out of the Heavenly Ancient Corpse Burial Ground, then be careful of an ominous event taking place.”
“How ominous?” Even the quiet Zhang Yu asked.
“Possessed by ghost! Speaking of no good, you will become crazy and rush into the Heavenly Ancient Corpse Burial Ground. These items do not belong to the outside world. Once opened, this is equivalent to accepting the laws of the Burial Ground! If you want to take it outside, then that would be provoking the ominous.” Li Qiye answered with a smile.
“Possessed by ghost…” Hearing this, the younger generation couldn’t help but to change their expressions. Even Niu Fen took a look around. These words of Li Qiye didn’t seem to be a joke.
“So, even if there were cultivators who had picked up the Heavenly Ancient Earth Messenger’s kits before, how could they know how to use them? Why do you know the rules and the ceremony of the transaction?” Seeing the Li Qiye who was even younger than her in front, Chen Baojiao couldn’t help but to ask this question.
“Calculated with my fingers.” Li Qiye replied with a smile.
Chen Baojiao naturally was not satisfied with such an answer, but she could only grumpily glare at Li Qiye once.
