Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 739: Chapter 174: You’re Interested in Corpses? (First Update)

”...So many, so many Divine Artifacts, artifacts, artifacts...”

Ji Yaohua’s voice echoed continuously around the ears of Mu Qingge and the other two.

Ji Yaohua hurriedly covered his mouth, his eyes spinning in fright. He still carried a bit of reverence for this region.

Damn! It’s impossible not to be reverent! Even a random snowflake condensed from dead air could only be resisted.

As for any remaining souls, the Artifact Soul in his fan was still a baby, not an adversary at all!

”It seems there’s nothing amiss. Let’s proceed.” When Ji Yaohua’s voice faded, Mu Qingge said to the other two.

The three moved closer to Ji Yaohua.

Ji Yaohua showed a grievance expression and said to the three, ”I wasn’t intentionally speaking loudly, I was just too shocked.”

”What shocked you?” Ying Ze frowned and asked.

Ji Yaohua pointed to the cave entrance and said to Ying Ze, ”See for yourself.”

A flash of doubt appeared in Ying Ze’s eyes, but he still approached the cave entrance as Ji Yaohua suggested. Upon reaching the edge, he leaned forward to look inside.

The sight before him took his breath away, his eyes narrowing instantly. In a flash, a scorching bright light burst from his eyes!

A moment later, the bright light in his eyes dimmed, he took a deep breath and turned to Mu Qingge and Xi Qianxue, saying, ”Indeed, there are many well-preserved Divine Artifacts here.”

”Brother, these are weapons left behind by the gods and demons tens of thousands of years ago, each one is a Divine Artifact!” Ji Yaohua excitedly patted Ying Ze’s shoulder and said.

Their eyes met, both with a sense of discovering treasure.

Xi Qianxue moved forward and also looked into the cave. Her eyes revealed a look of joy, turning to Mu Qingge she said, ”We’ve encountered dangers along the way, but now we finally have some comfort.”

So many Divine Artifacts, used by gods and demons tens of thousands of years ago, is a considerable fortune for any family. Even the Divine Hall might covet them.

Mu Qingge was the last to approach, standing at the edge of the cave, looking down. Indeed, those piles of weapons were preserved extremely well, with a wide variety, most importantly, each one was a Top Grade Divine Artifact.

However, she did not show the same joy as the others; instead, she furrowed her brows.

Ji Yaohua had originally expected to see a shocked expression on Mu Qingge’s face, but after waiting for a while and seeing her calm silence, he couldn’t help but sigh, ”As expected, Holy Level Refiners are different, unaffected even by so many Divine Artifacts! Such Realm is simply what we aspire to!”

”Too much nonsense.” Ying Ze slowly shook his head, somewhat helpless.

Xi Qianxue also cast a slightly cold gaze at him.

Uh!

Ji Yaohua blinked, feeling infinitely wronged inside.

He merely teased Mu Qingge with a sentence and angered everyone?

”I was wrong, I was wrong! Alright?” Recognizing the situation, Ji Yaohua immediately surrendered.

”You certainly were wrong.” To his surprise, Ying Ze and Xi Qianxue remained silent, but Mu Qingge’s cool voice rang out.

Xi Qianxue and Ying Ze were taken aback, both walking towards Mu Qingge.

But Ji Yaohua still stood in place, incredulous, saying, ”Qingge, I just teased you, are you really angry?”

Mu Qingge turned her eyes to him, slowly shaking her head, indicating the cave entrance, ”I didn’t hear what you said, the mistake I’m referring to is here.”

Hmm?

Ji Yaohua stood straighter, his expression tightening, quickly approaching.

The four gathered, once again looking at the piles of Divine Artifacts in the cave, but unable to discern what was amiss.

”Hey, Qingge, stop beating around the bush, just say it.” After watching for a while, Ji Yaohua couldn’t wait and said.

Mu Qingge’s eyes darkened a few shades, softly saying, ”Didn’t you notice something missing here?”

”What’s missing?” Ji Yaohua still looked bewildered.

”Bodies!” Xi Qianxue’s eyes lit up, her expression grave as she spoke.

”Bodies?” Ji Yaohua looked at her in astonishment.

Ying Ze also nodded slowly at this moment, his expression serious as he said, ”Correct! We were drawn by these Divine Artifacts and forgot the anomaly.”

”Hey! Don’t be too much, you’re bullying me for being slow, aren’t you? Always saying things I can’t understand.” Ji Yaohua said angrily.

Ying Ze raised his eyes to look at him and said, ”What did you see underground on our way here?”

”What did I see?” Ji Yaohua slowly recalled, murmuring, ”Wasn’t it just scenes from a war tens of thousands of years ago?” After saying this, his eyes suddenly tightened, realizing.

Seeing him realize, Ying Ze nodded again and said, ”Exactly, war scenes. But here are piles of weapons without any people.”

”Right! Where are the people? Where are those from the Divine and Demon Clans?” Ji Yaohua circled the cave entrance several times but found nothing.

Mu Qingge took a deep breath and spoke her conjecture, ”Those bodies were taken away by the person who opened this cave.”

”Why collect the bodies of the Divine and Demon Clans?” Ji Yaohua asked in surprise.

Mu Qingge couldn’t answer this question and could only shake her head.

”Could it be the work of people who came in from other dimensions?” Xi Qianxue speculated, looking at the three of them.

”What kind of people would be so bold? Ignoring heaps of Divine Artifacts but picking up corpses instead?” Ji Yaohua asked, puzzled.

Ying Ze said in a deep voice, ”There’s only one possibility left; these Divine Artifacts are useless to them. On the contrary, the bodies of the Divine and Demon Clans are extremely useful to them.”

”I’m just wondering, are the people who took the bodies the same ones who attacked Wei Molili?” Mu Qingge asked with a furrowed brow.

This question made the hearts of the three jump, and they fell silent.

Considering Wei Molili’s prowess, he could not withstand the monsters he spoke of. What then of the rest of them? Mu Qingge might be fine, but the three of them were in danger.

Even though they had been mentally prepared to encounter those monsters by entering the Ancient Battleground, and even intended to find them to discover a way to rescue Wei Molili...

When it felt truly close at hand, a sense of heaviness still rose in their hearts.

”If we encounter those monsters, how do we fight them?” Ji Yaohua asked a critical question.

From Wei Molili’s description, they knew too little about the other side, only that they seemed to attack using sound, which was how Wei Molili got hit.

But other than that?

”Don’t worry right now, it might just be experiential trainees from other dimensions,” Mu Qingge reassured.

Xi Qianxue pursed her lips, ”If these experiential trainees from other dimensions dare to open up here and take away the corpses, they’re probably not easy to deal with. We must be extremely cautious since we don’t know if they’re friend or foe.”

Ying Ze crouched down, touched the rim of the opening, and after a careful inspection, he stood up and said to the three, ”This opening has already been dug for some time. Whoever did it is likely far gone by now.”

”Forget about those people for now, think about what to do now?” Ji Yaohua pointed to the heap of Divine Artifacts and asked.

His implication was how to deal with so many Divine Artifacts.

This question provoked a subtle movement in Xi Qianxue and Ying Ze’s hearts. However, they controlled themselves, waiting for Mu Qingge’s decision.

Unconsciously, they had already begun to see Mu Qingge as the leader of this team.

Not only because her cultivation was the highest, but also because she was the calmest and most intelligent!

Being acknowledged as a leader by these prodigies in such a subtle way was extremely rare. It would significantly aid her future development.

Seeing the three of them look over, Mu Qingge curled her lips and said to them, ”Anyway, they’re all ownerless objects now, feel free to take them.”

Her words brought joy to their faces.

Without needing her to instruct further, the three immediately sprang into action.

Starting with Ji Yaohua, who jumped into the hole, he began to pass the Divine Artifacts up one by one. Before long, Ying Ze followed him down, helping to pass the Divine Artifacts.

Xi Qianxue knelt by the hole, placing the Divine Artifacts passed up by them on the ground.

She didn’t put them into her Sumeru Ring, waiting for everyone to distribute them. They had discovered it together, so naturally, it had to be divided into four parts.

Meanwhile, Mu Qingge stood still, seemingly lost in thought.

’Since those guys dared to dig open this ground and take away the bodies, it means that taking these bodies isn’t dangerous...’ Mu Qingge’s eyes lit up.

The bodies preserved underground were intact, just what she needed!

A decision made in her heart, Mu Qingge’s lips curved into a faint smile. She took two steps forward and leaped into the hole.

Her sudden descent startled Ji Yaohua, who was fully focused on collecting Divine Artifacts.

Without waiting for him to ask, Mu Qingge ventured further inside alone.

Down below, it was like another space, sealed by the transparent ground and isolated from the outside world.

Mu Qingge walked beyond the range where the Divine Artifacts were left and finally saw the bodies locked in combat. These gods and demons still retained their form from life, even their eyes still conveyed ferocity.

Mu Qingge’s gaze didn’t stop on the lower-ranking soldiers but searched specifically for the corpses of those who looked like generals. In her view, the higher the cultivation of the gods and demons, the purer their essence blood when refined, and the greater the chance of reviving Mu Liancheng.

She continued to delve deeper, searching for her target.

Mu Qingge quietly calculated in her heart that she needed to find at least two to three suitable corpses. If the first alchemy attempt failed, she would have a second or even a third chance.

Suddenly, footsteps echoed behind her.

Turning her head, she found Ji Yaohua catching up.

”Qingge, where are you going? You shouldn’t go any further. What if one or two of them aren’t completely dead and suddenly wake up?” Ji Yaohua said half-jokingly, yet his eyes couldn’t hide his concern.

Mu Qingge smiled faintly at his warning, ”I won’t go too deep; I’ll pick a few bodies and come back.”

Ji Yaohua’s expression turned peculiar, and he shrunk back a bit, saying to Mu Qingge, ”You’re actually interested in corpses? What kind of hobby is that?”
