Fantasy: I'll do the hacking, and you'll suffer the side effects!

164: Searching for the Hell Fish! The new son of destiny!“So that’s how it is. The Daoist truly has a deep understanding of the heavenly mysteries. We have been enlightened,” one person said, cupping his fists.

“A trivial matter. Follow this Daoist well, and in the future, you might be able to glimpse the Dao of Dharmakaya,” Wu De spoke eloquently, looking like an enlightened master.

“Yes, yes, Young Master Yan has already prepared an Hell Underworld Fish banquet for the Daoist. Please come this way.”

“Sensible.”

Wu De nodded in satisfaction, flicked his sleeve, and followed them towards the pavilion by the bank.

Throughout this process, he was surrounded by Martial Artists, like stars holding up the moon. How could there be any hint of coercion or torment?

Qin Han and the God-Slaying Stone were dumbfounded. They had initially thought he was kidnapped, but they never expected such high treatment.

Even an Hell Underworld Fish banquet was arranged.

“Damn it, no wonder the fatty didn’t come looking for us. Turns out he got better treatment. He’s truly an ungrateful wretch,” the God-Slaying Stone spat.

“At least he’s safe,” Qin Han said.

“Should we go find him?” the God-Slaying Stone asked.

“Not for now. We’ll talk after he finds the Kunpeng Nest,” Qin Han had a plan.

“Then what about us now…?”

“Find the Hell Underworld Fish.” Qin Han already had a plan.

He then continued downwards, and to avoid unnecessary trouble, he took a veil and covered Zhe Yunli’s face.

He also had her change into plain, simple clothes.

Although Princess Yunli strongly objected during this process, she still submissively complied under the threat of a ‘kiss’.

At the pavilion on the opposite bank, Wu De seemed to glimpse a familiar figure.

As soon as he turned his head, he found no one else except a few scattered Martial Artists attempting to fish in the Huangquan River.

“Daoist Wu, drink up, what are you spacing out for?” one person asked.

“This Daoist seems to have seen an old acquaintance,” Wu De’s eyes were a bit hazy.

“Since he is your old acquaintance, he is also my friend, Chu Mou. Why not invite him to drink with us?” Chu Mou laughed heartily.

“I must have been mistaken. Let’s continue drinking,” Wu De shook his head, discarding the unrealistic thoughts in his mind.

Qin Han had single-handedly resisted the attack to save them, and he might have already perished in the Secret Realm.

He had always remembered this profound kindness and had never forgotten it since their escape.

However, the person was gone, and he could only keep this thought hidden in his heart.

But in his heart, he always hoped that Qin Han would be safe, though the chances were too slim.

In the forest on the other side,

“These clothes are hideous, and they’re very uncomfortable to wear,” Zhe Yunli tugged at the corner of the coarse cloth, her face displeased.

“You’re used to fine clothes and rich food. Occasionally trying something different might be a fresh experience,” Qin Han said indifferently.

Zhe Yunli’s face was full of disdain; she felt like her skin was about to be chafed.

When the group truly arrived at the middle and lower reaches, the restraining power on their bodies suddenly disappeared.

This meant that they had truly escaped the control of the River God.

Divine Devil Seal!

In an instant, Qin Han immediately cast a Seal spell, directly sealing Zhe Yunli’s spiritual power, giving her no chance to take advantage.

“You…” Zhe Yunli was stunned. She had indeed wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but she didn’t expect Qin Han’s speed to be so fast.

“Don’t even think about running. Just stay put obediently, otherwise, if you lose an arm or a leg later, don’t blame me for not being gentle with women,” Qin Han said slowly.

“You’re not a gentleman at all,” Zhe Yunli cursed.

“I am inherently a scoundrel, so how can I be a gentleman?” Qin Han smiled slightly.

Zhe Yunli gained a new understanding of Qin Han’s thick skin.

Although she was currently restrained, she secretly thought that if she encountered someone from the Zhe Yun Divine Dynasty, she would definitely call for help.

In this unsealed place, Qin Han would surely be outnumbered.

Thinking of this, her indignant mood gradually calmed down, and her beautiful eyes, hidden beneath the veil, scanned the surroundings.

“Thump!”

The sound of a giant object hitting the water echoed, and a person was seen carrying a huge mountain and slamming it into the Huangquan River.

The terrifying corrosive power instantly dissolved the treasure, its speed so fast that it happened in the blink of an eye.

“My emperor weapon!” The person looked at this scene in disbelief, wailing in agony.

“Idiot, I told you it’s the real Huangquan River, and you still dared to throw things in.”

“Exactly, there have been many precedents before this. This guy never learns.”

“Let alone an emperor weapon, even a Saint weapon wouldn’t last long.”

“It’s almost night. The Hell Yin Soldiers should be coming out.”

Everyone looked at the gradually setting sun and hurried away from the place.

The once noisy area instantly became empty, and even the Martial Artist who was still crying rushed away.

“Is it that scary?” the God-Slaying Stone asked in confusion.

“Hell Yin Soldiers specialize in absorbing life essence. Touch them and you die. They are countless times more terrifying than the vengeful spirits of Ghost Nether City,” Qin Han said.

Hearing this, the God-Slaying Stone’s heart stirred. He looked at the calm Qin Han and asked, “Qin Supreme already has a solution?”

Qin Han just smiled and didn’t reply.

“Tsk, this princess doesn’t believe you have any countermeasures. If you want to die, go by yourself, don’t drag us along,” Zhe Yunli said with disdain.

“That won’t do. We are a pair of mandarin ducks; we die together,” Qin Han had no intention of letting her leave.

“Stinky guy.” Zhe Yunli had already guessed the answer and cursed silently in her heart.

As night fell, bubbles suddenly rose from the Huangquan River, and the smell of sulfur became even stronger.

Deep yellow mist steamed up, spreading for dozens of miles.

At this moment, the corpses floating on the river seemed to receive a summons, emitting a harsh ‘clack clack’ sound.

Bones were seen assembling themselves, and grotesque skeletons suddenly stood up.

Tens of thousands of skeletons stood together on the river surface, and hollow eye sockets suddenly ignited with a faint yellow flame.

A strange aura permeated the area, and the vast Yellow Springs, as far as the eye could see, was filled with chilling white bones.

“Crack!”

The skeletons walking on the river made sounds like footsteps on hard surfaces, and the bright moon above their heads was completely obscured by the yellow mist.

All that remained was endless darkness, and the original festive blessed land instantly turned into a hellish abyss.

“Are these the Yin Soldiers?” the God-Slaying Stone asked.

“Most likely, but they are very different from the descriptions in ancient texts,” Qin Han frowned.

Legendary Yin Soldiers were similar to ghosts but had physical bodies.

Ancient people said that Yin Soldiers were commanded by Ox-Head and Horse-Face and were responsible for apprehending souls.

What appeared before them now were endless skeletons, which inevitably made one suspicious.

“It’s so scary. Let’s not go,” Zhe Yunli’s delicate body trembled violently, completely terrified by the horrifying atmosphere.

She was originally fearless and stayed to see what the Yin Soldiers looked like.

But when she actually saw them, she didn’t dare to face them directly.

What’s more, Qin Han had sealed her spiritual power. If anything went wrong…

“There’s a person on the river!” the God-Slaying Stone suddenly exclaimed.

Qin Han sharply turned his head to look, only to see a man standing in the midst of thousands of Yin Soldiers.

This man had an ordinary face, wore black clothes, and carried an ancient-looking lantern in his hand, moving forward with the Yin Soldiers.

As the lantern flickered, the Yin Soldiers moved in unison, much like the corpse drivers of the previous life.
