Chapter 361: A Dark Night with High Winds
The entire Ling Family was currently cultivating atop the fragmented Flame Volcano.
When Flame Volcano fractured, it broke into several large sections. Under the direction of the Horned Demon Race, the Ling Family claimed one of these sections, digging out a cave in this area of the Flame Volcano and using it as their cultivation hall.
As Qin Lie followed Ling Yushi to the Ling Family’s cultivation area, he saw several young children whose hair and eyes had become purple.
“Qin Lie, you’ve come!”
Upon seeing Qin Lie arrive, Ling Xuanxuan’s eyes brightened as she subconsciously began to laugh in joy, “Big Brother Qin, this Nine Hell Evil Scripture that we cultivate, did you find it for us?”
Ling Feng also emerged, his expression calm. However, traces of excitement could be seen within his eyes.
Upon seeing Qin Lie walk over, Ling Chengzhi and many Ling Family members all waved in greeting, their attitudes friendly and warm.
“Sigh. If only elder brother was still alive. He definitely would have been very pleased if he knew that our Ling Family still survived to this day,” Ling Chengzhi said wistfully.
“Uncle Ling, the Ling Family is currently the enemy of the entire Scarlet Tide Continent. What is there to be happy about?” Qin Lie walked into the bright cave, observing its spacious interior and the many small stone rooms that had been constructed. As he did so, he felt like it was very similar to the jail cells of Profound Heaven Alliance.
“Haha, don’t worry, we have already thought it through. Whether we are an evil race or not, we will naturally be able to stand upon this land as long as we are strong enough!” Ling Chengzhi’s eyes revealed a vigorous ambition as he became excited. “Qin Lie, we recently had a few more children show signs of the Evil God’s blood! Under Yushi’s guidance, all of the Ling Family clansmen with the Evil God’s blood flowing within them have recently experienced alarming rates of growth in their cultivation realms!”
The first volume of the Nine Hell Evil Scripture had thoroughly awakened Ling Yushi’s blood of the Evil God. Recorded within this volume of the Nether Realm’s secret scripture of the martial way was the most traditional cultivation spirit art of the evil races.
Ling Yushi currently possessed this volume of the Nine Hell Evil Scripture.
Ling Yushi had recently begun passing on the spirit arts of the Nine Hell Evil Scripture to her fellow clansmen. In doing so, she discovered that the cultivation speed of practitioners, whose bodies had the blood of the Evil God, rapidly progressed as they cultivated the Nine Hell Evil Scripture.
“The Evil God’s blood flows within your bodies, and you all are cultivating the sacred scripture of the evil races. Furthermore, there is nether demonic energy here for all of you to absorb, so of course the speed of your cultivation would be incredibly fast.” Qin Lie looked at Ling Xuanxuan, then Ling Feng, before finally turning to look at Ling Chengzhi. “Uncle Ling, do all of you have any plans for the future?”
uddenly, the gazes of Ling Chengzhi, Ling Xuanxuan, Ling Feng, and the others all landed upon the figure of Ling Yushi.
It was extremely clear. As of now, Ling Yushi had already become the Ling Family’s cornerstone, surpassing her father’s status within the hearts and minds of the Ling Family clansmen.
“Qin Lie, we want to use the spatial teleportation formation and enter the Nether Continent as soon as possible,” Ling Yushi suddenly said.
“There’s actually a teleportation formation inside of Herb Mountain?!” Ling Chengzhi exclaimed.
Ling Xuanxuan, Ling Feng, and the others showed excited expressions. They seemed to be extremely restless.
“Qin Lie already confirmed it on his recent tripe. There is a complete spatial teleportation formation within Herb Mountain.” Ling Yushi suddenly smiled, saying in a soft voice, “Not only did Grandpa Qin Shan already know the true identity of my Ling Family, it seems like he also did many things in secret to help us. If there comes a day where I meet Grandpa Qin Shan once more, I will gracefully thank him in the name of my father, my grandfather, and all of the Ling Family clansmen.”
“Then there is even more that we need to thank Qin Lie for. If not for him, our Ling Family would have perished long ago!” Ling Chengzhi said. Each word was powerfully articulated.
A sharp emotional glint flashed through the purple eyes of Ling Xuanxuan and Ling Feng as they both suddenly looked at Qin Lie.
“Have you all decided?” Qin Lie sighed silently in his heart.
He hadn’t expected that Ling Yushi would be the decisionmaker for the Ling Family, and that she would decide to go to the Nether Continent through the spatial teleportation formation as soon as possible.
Ling Yushi hadn’t mentioned the matter to him on the way over, so Qin Lie was somewhat perplexed.
“The inheritance altars of the Nether Realm’s various races are in the Nether Continent, as are many secrets of the Dark Nether Race.” Ling Yushi’s face was full of regret as she said, “According to the words of Senior Ku Luo, the Dark Nether Race constructed a Dark Nether Underground Palace in a secret underground area in the Nether Continent. Buried inside of this underground palace are… many secrets of the Dark Nether Race. However, only those who possess the Evil God’s blood can enter the underground palace.”
“Qin Lie, your grandfather’s construction of the teleportation formation was probably so that we and Ku Luo’s group could return the Nether Continent,” Ling Chengzhi added.
Qin Lie nodded silently.
“Will you be going to the Nether Continent with us?” Ling Yushi looked at Qin Lie expectantly.
“We’ll see when the time comes,” Qin Lie replied indifferently.
As Qin Lie spent time with the Ling Family, he learned of their motives and preparations to go to the Nether Continent.
“The Nether Continent…”
Qin Lie repeated those words in his heart while using his soul to contact Xue Li and ask, “Have you discovered anything relating to my grandfather?”
“Don’t be in such a rush. I am still searching for those artificers. I need time too, you know,” Xue Li replied. “Also, the ‘Land of Chaos’ isn’t the same as other places. It has never had a moment of peace and is perpetually at war. Compared to the martial practitioners of the various forces, those who live in the ‘Land of Chaos’ are complete madmen. They are extremely insane practitioners.
