Because this person who came in later was a young man who looked like he was in his thirties. Donned in green robes, his face was deathly pale, and even his eyes were white in color...

Jun Mo Xie initially thought that it must also be some other old fellow, to be able to talk to this boney old demon in such an authoritative tone. But to think that the person who came in was so young!

It was indeed too unexpected!

That boney old man had just stood up and barely had time to reply when that young man suddenly furrowed his brows and looked in the direction of the stone wall where Jun Mo Xie was, eyes full of suspicion...

Could it be that he could detect me? Jun Mo Xie’s heart jumped. He quietly shifted using the Yin Yang Escape and blended himself within the area that was in abundant of the smell of corpse...

That young man scanned about carefully, a look of suspicion on his face, but did not find anything unusual. He finally continued. “The person who intruded today has Xuan cultivation that is a profound mystery. And he has some sort of divine method of appearing and vanishing. Until now, we can no longer confirm if he is still here or had he already left. And either way, it is a disaster for us. If he has yet to leave, with all his mysterious concealing abilities, the Zhan Family can no longer speak of any secrets...

“And the most terrifying thing is that the person is gone. No matter who he is, the moment he leaves this place, he already knows the secrets of the Zhan Family. And it is enough to destroy the entire Zhan Family! So you absolutely must coagulate the most amount of corpse qi within the shortest period of time! Forcefully block out the feng shui position of the Miao Family and make their remaining good fortune transfer over to the Zhan Family within three days! Only this way can the Zhan Family make it past this danger!

“Don’t care about how the other families react. All those who want to completely restrain us will merely be deployment! So they will need at least three days! And this is the time for us!”

The boney old man jolted and said with great difficulty, “I also understand the severity of the matter before us, but... if we really do that... I’m afraid... because it is done too hastily, there will be mistakes... Old Ancestor, you are the professional in this. You should know that it is a taboo to rush things like this! We are already using methods that defy the heavens. If there is any error, it is not salvageable...”

The young man replied calmly. “I understand things like this. But right now, the circumstances do not allow us to wait any more. We can only speed things up! The secret of this place is bound to be exposed. If we do not complete things now, only annihilation awaits the entire Zhan Family, with no chance of turning things around! The Zhan Family may be strong, but when faced with the joint forces of the Manor Lord and the six other families, we stand no chance of victory!

“It is common for humans to be at a lack of better choices. The accident this time really left us helpless!” The young man raised his head sinisterly and cursed. “That goddamn intruder! Who is it exactly?! No matter who he is, if the Zhan Family is unable to escape out of this, I will make this person and his entire family pay with their lives!”

“Since things have already gotten to this point, then I shall immediately finish this matter with all my strength.” The boney old man answered after a long struggle with himself. His expression was tragic, as if he would need to sacrifice himself to accomplish this matter...

“Don’t worry, after this is over, I have a way to replenish and recover the lifespan that you’ve lost. It’ll take a year at most for a complete recovery, and you’ll even advance!” The young man was Zhan Lun Hui. Right now, his tone was exceptionally stern.

“Many thanks to Old Ancestor!” The boney old man was Zhan Tian Ji. He secretly relaxed upon hearing this reply. What he was going to do was completely against the will of the heavens. Although it was the art of feng shui, it would require using his own life force as the trigger. If not for this, why would he be so skinny to such a shocking state...

After Zhan Lun Hui finished talking, he did not stay any longer, instantly exiting this giant stone chamber.

Seeing Zhan Lun Hui depart, Zhan Tian Ji remained standing still, not moving for a long time, as if he were mulling. Finally, he let out a long sigh and sat back cross-legged. Deeply sucking in a breath of air, he raised his palms and suddenly, the top of the stone chamber radiated bright light...

Following it, above the corpses in the giant pit before Zhan Tian Ji, were whooshing sounds...

Outside the door, Zhan Lun Hui, who was standing silently, laughed satisfactorily upon hearing this. Then, he left for real...

Jun Mo Xie raised his head and looked up. On the ceiling of this stone chamber, there was a complete, intricate carving picture of the Misty Illusory Manor’s nine peaks!

On that picture, the connection between the peaks were like the meridians of the human body— there was a vague flow of light between then.

The corpse qi in the pit continued to whoosh about, slowly gathering in midair and forming into a ball of black-purplish, extremely evil qi flow and landing into that cauldron before Zhan Tian Ji. Under it, the nine tubes begin to move vigorously...

Following which, a thin, black-purple ray of light rose from the cauldron and hit on the location of the feng shui position of the Miao Family in the picture in the ceiling. Instantly, the color representing the Miao Family turned dull...

After a breath, Zhan Tian Ji yelled with all of his strength: “Go!”

A grey gust of air rose upwards with a whoosh in the direction of the top left corner of the stone chamber. And the stone wall in that position became hazy... As to that grey air that had already flown away from that place and vanished...

Where it vanished into was exactly where the Miao Family’s feng shui position was at!

Jun Mo Xie could even confirm that gust of air had landed in a crucial location that connected the Miao Family with the main peak!

After doing all this, Zhan Tian Ji’s face instantly turned red. He huffed and puffed with all his strength, catching his breath from the air in this stone room, as if he didn’t mind the sickeningly overwhelming odor of corpses it was infested with...

After a long long while, Zhan Tian Ji’s face turned deathly pale. The skin on his face also seemed to have loosened... His eyes were glazed over. He sat there silently, an unusually pure surge of Xuan Qi circulating within his meridians. As if he were trying to recover his strength within this short period of time...

And the cauldron before him did not stop! The tubes were still quaking, churning the corpses and skeletons below...

Then afterwards, there was another gust of corpse qi that slowly gathered!

Then, a gust of red mist began to rush from the right upper corner of the stone room, just like before, vanishing after a spin...

Jun Mo Xie, who had a few certificates in the art of feng shui, also finally understood the theory within this!

The Zhan Family used countless human lives by massacring them to accumulate and form a corpse miasma using all the intense resentment. Then, using a formation that was the same as the Misty Illusory Manor’s Nine Peaks to forcefully hinder the fortune of the Misty Illusory Manor, and at the same time, block all of their paths. Then, it was forcefully channel into the Zhan Family!

Just looking at this pit full of skeletons, it can be imagined that there were ten thousand people who died for no reason here!

Everyday, there were just three hundred corpses. At most, five hundred. At the start, the number will definitely be fewer... then, how long had the Zhan Family been operating this scheme for?

No matter what, Jun Mo Xie detested this sort of cruel behavior bitterly!

I was also... once a grass!

We may not have great capabilities, but we will never be able to see the actions of the higher ups. But we are also never willing to accept that our fate is the sacrificial item for these big shots to snatch for power!

Jun Mo Xie’s hand was already linked with the Hongjun Pagoda and holding onto the Blood of Yellow Flame tightly!

In his heart, the killing intent was slowly gathering and gradually reaching a peak!

Zhan Tian Ji took a short rest and recovered a bit of his strength. Knowing that the matter must no longer be delayed and he could relax, he instantly got ready for the next bout of sacrificial rites!

Looking at the ball of black-purplish qi flow that was forming, a rare smile appeared on Zhan Tian Ji’s boney face. As hideous as it looks, it was still a smile... With a point of his finger, the black-purple ball of qi landed in the cauldron and after a round of tossing, a thin ray of black-purple light shot up...

This was the moment Zhan Tian Ji was the weakest, and at the same time, his mind was the most relaxed! Because everything else would run its course according to the formation and he didn’t have to do a single thing...

But right now, it was even difficult for him to catch his breath! Although he was a Saint Venerable, his weakness right now was obvious! Even the strongest person would have to pay a hefty price for altering fate and defying the will of the heavens to steal other’s fortune!

And Jun Mo Xie had chosen to strike at this moment!

He only took a stride in the void, but he had already covered a distance of almost twenty zhang . Instantly, he arrived right before Zhan Tian Ji! A speed like this was already beyond the abilities and limits of any human!

Following which, a burst of sword qi shot out! As if the entire space was going to crumble in this moment! A dazzling radiance that burned with intense heat shot into Zhan Tian Ji’s eyes!

A sudden change like this caused this Saint Venerable expert to instantly be blinded and caught unprepared!

Zhan Tian Ji had no defense at all!

This was the most core location of the Zhan Family, and also the place with the strictest protection!

In the entire Misty Illusory Manor, aside from the Spiritual Herbal Gardens, the most unlikely place to have any accidents was in here!

In here, he had never been subjected to having to think about being attacked by an enemy!

Even though he had heard that there had been an accident in this place, there was an unknown strong enemy who had intruded into the underground world, Zhan Tian Ji was sure that this was the absolute secret place that no one could barge into!

Because he had set up countless restrictions before hand around this place! Without his permission, even Zhan Lun Hui was not allowed to enter as he wished!
