Chapter 142: What Kind of Luck Is This?
The members of the Hall of Yama discovered that they not only had snacks now but essentially owned a massive treasure trove.
Even the weapon craftsman from the Hall of Yama was looking into making weapons out of soul bones.
The sharpness and characteristics of these weapons could directly sever a person’s spiritual soul, even ignoring any defenses—an absolute mind-slicing machine!
If they forged magical artifacts with their Divine Grievance, there would even be an effect that could confuse others’ souls.
This was an unimaginable enhancement for them and the Hall of Yama.
In a flash, everyone from the Hall of Yama was eyeing the Divine Grievance with glimmering green eyes.
The Divine Grievance itself was all puffed up like a porcupine.
Liu Shunyi realized just how powerful their Hall of Yama was about to become.
Still, Liu Shunyi reminded, “Keep it low-key, and when forging these armors and artifacts, don’t make too much noise!”
The members of the Hall of Yama nodded in agreement.
“By the way, Lord Yama, what do we do with these nearly fifty thousand soldiers?”
Liu Shunyi thought for a bit, then said, “Don’t kill them, they’ll be useful to me!”
The Hall of Yama members nodded and then disappeared entirely.
After they vanished, Liu Shunyi turned his attention to Zhao Gou, who was still studying the river water.
Liu Shunyi walked over and said, “Stop staring; let’s follow the water downstream and see what we can find!”
Zhao Gou nodded enthusiastically.
“Splash~”
“Splash~”
The two jumped into the river.
Once they fully submerged, they realized they were sinking uncontrollably.
Zhao Gou, in a panic, grabbed Liu Shunyi’s leg.
Liu Shunyi, however, remained calm, glancing around nonchalantly.
Seeing Liu Shunyi unflustered, Zhao Gou relaxed too.
In his mind, as long as Liu Shunyi wasn’t panicking, everything was under control.
Since there was nothing to worry about, Zhao Gou began to explore his surroundings.
“Glub… glub…”
Suddenly, Zhao Gou opened his mouth and blew out a stream of bubbles.
He tugged at Liu Shunyi, excitement radiating from him as he pointed somewhere.
Liu Shunyi was speechless.
“Communicate, will you? What’s with the bubble-blowing?”
Zhao Gou paused for a moment, then quickly transmitted his thoughts. “Hey, I got so excited I forgot! Dumbo, let’s head that way; I feel something’s calling me!”
Liu Shunyi nodded. “Alright, let’s go check it out!”
With Zhao Gou’s guidance, the two quickly moved in a certain direction.
Before long, they arrived at the river’s deepest point.
To their surprise, they found an independent space.
Upon entering this space, they suddenly encountered a small pond.
There was nothing particularly special about this pond.
However, the water shimmered with gold, silver, and purple hues.
“I can’t believe this!”
Liu Shunyi was totally stunned.
What was this place doing with such a thing?
Three Light Divine Water.
Liu Shunyi couldn’t help but feel a bit envious while gazing at Zhao Gou.
“You’ve got to be kidding me; what kind of heavenly luck do you have!”
Zhao Gou looked at Liu Shunyi and asked, “What do you mean?”
Liu Shunyi took a deep breath.
“It’s simple. This water is called Three Light Divine Water. As far as I know, I can’t remember whether it’s an innate or acquired divine object, but it’s definitely outrageous.”
“If you use the three waters separately, they become deadly poison; if combined, they can resurrect the dead and can even contain the power of creation!”
At this point, Liu Shunyi looked at Zhao Gou. “You’re not the Chosen One, are you?”
Zhao Gou was completely lost for words. “Chosen One? If I’m the Chosen One, then what are you? God? Wait, that doesn’t make sense; doesn’t that make me your son?”
Liu Shunyi beamed a doting smile at Zhao Gou.
Zhao Gou decided to ignore Liu Shunyi and hurried to refine the Three Light Divine Water.
Actually, Zhao Gou didn’t even need to refine it much, as he was so in tune with the Three Light Divine Water.
In almost no time, it enveloped his Nascent Soul.
After experiencing it, Zhao Gou got instantly excited.
“Dumbo, this Three Light Divine Water is truly remarkable! With this stuff, there won’t be any illness I can’t treat in this world! I could just wave my hand in the future, and everything will come back to life!”
“Wow, this treasure really is something!”
Zhao Gou grinned at Liu Shunyi, eyes gleaming with pride.
“And now, I’m no longer afraid of being beaten up by you since with this Three Light Divine Water, I’m practically immortal! There’s no injury I can’t heal!”
“Come on, Dumbo, let’s duke it out for three hundred rounds!”
Liu Shunyi squinted his eyes. “Sure!”
——————
Half an incense stick later.
Zhao Gou stared at himself, covered in swirling black ink, crying out in despair.
He now regretted it deeply.
Why did he have to provoke Liu Shunyi?
Now look where that led him.
What once was the sacred Three Light Divine Water had turned into murky ink.
“Waaah… What will people think of me when countless blacks flow from my lower dantian?”
“Dr. Zhao Gou, with a belly full of black water?”
Zhao Gou felt like dying.
“Damn it, Dumbo, I’m going to get you!”
At this point, Liu Shunyi was holding his identity token, conversing with Lin Wudao, while also using one hand to hold Zhao Gou’s head down.
Zhao Gou was like a stubborn calf, squirming and kicking.
“Yama, the Wan Guo Temple’s forbidden area is about to open. Many people are starting to gather; should we take action?”
Liu Shunyi nodded. “Let our people hide nearby for now, and gather information on everything about the Wan Guo Temple, including what treasures are up for grabs!”
Lin Wudao quickly replied, “I’ll send you the intel directly through the token!”
Liu Shunyi nodded in response.
After ending the communication with Lin Wudao, Liu Shunyi looked at Zhao Gou, who he was pressing down. “Cut it out; time for business!”
Zhao Gou’s nostrils flared with anger. “Who’s messing around? You owe me some Three Light Divine Water!”
Liu Shunyi rolled his eyes. “I nearly used my entire merit to upgrade your Three Light Divine Water; be grateful!”
Zhao Gou couldn’t respond. “What does your merit even look like? Don’t you know?”
Now, Liu Shunyi pulled out his black gourd and Qingping Sword. “If you can’t handle it, you can strengthen it for me!”
Zhao Gou: “…”
But Zhao Gou actually didn’t hesitate. He was ready to tap into his merits.
Liu Shunyi waved him off. “You keep it; it might be useful later. My merit won’t do me much good!”
“Alright, enough said; we have a secret realm about to open soon!”
Saying that, Liu Shunyi handed a document to Zhao Gou.
Zhao Gou glanced at the document and then looked back at Liu Shunyi somewhat oddly regarding the potential treasures mentioned inside.
Liu Shunyi was also slightly speechless at the treasures expected to appear in the Wan Guo Temple.
