Chapter 930: Chapter 928: Ancient Secrets
Chu Hao took a sip of tea, his eyes glowing.
Chu Hao, not blushing or heart racing, couldn’t help but ask, "Sir, do you have anything to eat here?"
Elder Nan laughed heartily and clapped his hands, a chef walked in, respectfully saying, "Sir."
"Prepare some food."
"Yes."
Soon, the chef served the dishes, and Chu Hao finally smelled the aroma. He picked up the large bowl of rice and began eating heartily, clearing all the dishes on the table.
"Burp... I’m eighty percent full." Chu Hao patted his belly, feeling very happy.
Chu Hao felt curious and asked, "Sir, are these dishes from the Yang Realm?"
Elder Nan shook his head and said, "From the Yin Realm."
Chu Hao was astonished and said, "How is that possible? I’ve never tasted anything while eating in the Yin Realm."
Elder Nan, unhurried, did not answer, but instead asked, "Do you know the origins of the Yin Cao Netherworld?"
Chu Hao shook his head.
Elder Nan began speaking of things from long ago, revealing some ancient secrets: "A long time ago, the Human World, Heavenly Court, and Hell were actually one continent."
Chu Hao blinked his eyes, feeling somewhat unbelievable.
Elder Nan continued, "Over time, the continent gave birth to numerous creatures, various splendid lives."
"In the north, there was Yin, and the Yin energy was too strong, only suitable for creatures heavily immersed in Yin energy."
"Later, a heavenly disaster descended, and the great powers of the races on the continent respectively divided territories. Since then, the Human World, Netherworld, and Heavenly Court were established; they set up order and protected the safety of the Three Realms."
Chu Hao was shocked.
Elder Nan took a sip of tea and said lightly, "So, do you still think the food you just ate is from the Yin Realm or Yang Realm?"
Chu Hao was completely shaken.
In that case, the Netherworld is also a continent full of vibrant life; it’s not just a place where humans go after death.
This ancient secret is truly astonishing.
Anyone would find it hard to believe if you spoke of it.
Chu Hao exclaimed in surprise, "Then why do the dead come to the Underworld instead of staying in the Human World?"
Elder Nan said, "The Netherworld continent is very special, with a unique attraction for Ghosts. Ghosts are inherently Yin, and after people die, their souls escape from their shells and arrive at the Underworld through the Rebirth Realm. But as the Dead Souls continue to increase, the great figures of the Netherworld continent had to create the Yin Cao Netherworld."
So the Underworld was created for such a reason.
As for the Rebirth Realm he mentioned, Chu Hao asked again.
Elder Nan sighed, "The Rebirth Realm is a place even I dare not touch; once you enter, you can’t come out."
Even he said so; the Rebirth Realm is terrifying!
Speaking of this, Elder Nan looked at Chu Hao and said, "I didn’t expect you to come to the Underworld."
Chu Hao curiously asked, "Sir, have you known me before?"
"Heard from a chess friend."
The chess friend he’s talking about is Su Huansheng.
Chu Hao said helplessly, "I was chased down here."
Upon hearing that the Fourth Netherworld Ghost was chasing Chu Hao, Elder Nan laughed and said, "A successor of the Qiankun Douling Technique, able to kill the Second White Devil with the Ultimate Body Technique—the Fourth Netherworld Ghost chasing you is not surprising. If it were me, I’d do the same."
Chu Hao was speechless.
Chu Hao asked, "Sir, what exactly are Foreign Ghosts?"
Elder Nan shook his head and said, "They come from the Ancestral Realm, our ancestors also originated from the Ancestral Realm."
So that’s the origin of the Foreign Ghosts!
Chu Hao wanted to ask more, but Elder Nan interrupted him, saying, "Knowing too much can sometimes be detrimental. When your strength increases, you will naturally find out."
Next, it’s the main topic.
Elder Nan said, "Your methods are a bane to Corpse Monsters; how many of those spherical items can you refine?"
Chu Hao said, "I need Yin Souls."
Elder Nan smiled and said, "Since you came not long ago, you’ve already understood Yin Souls, very impressive. I will provide you with Yin Souls; refine as many as you can."
Chu Hao was delighted. The power of the True Yang Thunderball is enough to help him eradicate Corpse Monsters, all those rewards will be his.
A billion is not just a dream.
Chu Hao salivated and said, "As long as you can provide Yin Souls, I can refine the True Yang Thunderball."
Elder Nan was pleased and asked, "Okay, how many Yin Souls are needed to refine one?"
Chu Hao replied, "Ten thousand."
"Pfft!"
Elder Nan spewed a mouthful of tea, his protruding forehead covered in black lines.
Chu Hao cautiously asked, "Is that a lot?"
"Ding... Host successfully acted pretentiously, struck at Elder Nan’s heart, and gained 7000 Pretentiousness Points."
Damn!
Is it not a lot?
Elder Nan wanted to complain.
You damn it, why not just steal them!
Ten thousand Yin Souls to refine one True Yang Thunderball, although Elder Nan possesses many Yin Souls, refining one with ten thousand is overwhelming.
It’s important to know that extracting Yin Souls from Corpse Monsters is difficult, and you have to capture Corpse Monsters alive to do it.
Moreover, in his Yin Soul inventory, there were only over a million.
Which means only a hundred or so can be refined!
Ten thousand, is it really not a lot?
After a long time, Elder Nan said with a headache, "Too many."
Chu Hao blinked and said, "Sir, how about this! I can extract Yin Souls to refine True Yang Thunderballs, you just provide me with enough Corpse Monsters."
Elder Nan’s eyes lit up and said, "Providing Corpse Monsters is no problem; can you manage on your own?"
Chu Hao patted his chest and said, "A family skill, it’s no big deal."
"Good."
Elder Nan was secretly pleased, he indeed hadn’t mistaken Chu Hao.
Chu Hao was very happy too.
If they cooperate in this way, the number of Corpse Monsters in the billions is simply not a dream.
Curse Mark Divine Artifact.
Here I come.
Elder Nan said, "In three days, if you can refine a hundred True Yang Thunderballs, I’ll promote you to Chiliarch."
Chu Hao said, "Three days is too rushed."
Actually, as long as the materials are provided, he can instantly refine True Yang Thunderballs, as many as needed.
However, Chu Hao had his personal reasons, he couldn’t let them think his abilities were too extraordinary; otherwise, the road ahead would be difficult, and he would like to earn some more benefits.
Elder Nan said, "Alright, so a week then, go to your new residence where you should find the food delightful."
Chu Hao was delighted, laughing wildly inside.
I can still thrive in the Underworld.
Chu Hao’s new residence was at the foot of a mountain in Fengdu, a villa!
It’s a villa!
The mountain is good, the water is good, and there are Netherworld Soldiers guarding. From now on, he’s the master here.
Moreover! Numerous top chefs were hired for him, providing ingredients that are colorful, aromatic, and tasty; no problem with meals in the future.
"Heaven within Hell."
Chu Hao chuckled slyly.
He then found Netherworld Soldiers guarding around the villa, and these soldiers would follow him from now on.
A Yin Soldier Leader knelt on one knee and said, "Sir! I am Decurion Luan Yu, commanding nine hundred soldiers at your disposal."
"Assemble," Chu Hao said.
"Yes."
Came to the backyard of the villa, where there was a spacious training ground, nine hundred Netherworld Soldiers lined up and trained, with steely resolve.
The rules of the Underworld are very strict; even though Chu Hao is a new Centurion, with just one command, these soldiers would charge into fire and water.
