Immortal cultivation starts with copying.

Chapter 351 Spirit Tower

Chen Yunhao smiled lightly.

"Fellow Daoist Tian from Yellow Wind Ridge, I'm looking for you... You'd better put away your little tricks. I'm just asking you for something. It's best to tell you the truth and don't force me to use soul-searching techniques."

Nada Zhenren's right hand was gently clenched and placed on his waist. How could Chen Yunhao not see it?

However, it would be impossible for any cultivator not to take precautions when facing a high-level cultivator with ill intentions.

At this moment, Master Na Tian was looking for an opportunity to see if he could run back to Qingshan City.

"Whatever you want to ask, I will tell you everything I know."

Chen Yunhao showed no murderous intent, which made Master Tian feel a little relieved.

"Over two hundred years ago, was there a man named Zhang Shiqi who defected from Huangfengling?"

After listening to this, Master Tian just thought about it for a moment, and then his expression changed.

"Could it be that you are the mastermind behind Zhang Shiqi...?"

"If I were the one who instigated this, and you were still alive, tell me what happened back then, and how much do you know about the person behind it..."

Master Tian just couldn't figure it out immediately, as it happened too long ago.

Huang Fengling suffered a great loss in that incident, and not many people knew about it.

Master Tian quickly thought about Chen Yunhao's identity and role in his mind. It was really hard to define whether he was a friend or an enemy.

While Master Tian was still thinking of a countermeasure in his mind, an extremely strong aura suddenly locked onto him, making him even more afraid to act rashly.

"Youngster, don't try to be clever..."

"I dare not, I dare not..."

The sweat on Master Tian's forehead immediately dripped down.

"Two hundred years ago, Zhang Shiqi became my uncle's disciple. He was very clever and intelligent, and was deeply loved by my uncle..."

Seeing that Chen Yunhao was gradually losing his patience, Master Tian no longer dared to have any other thoughts and explained everything in detail.

Back then, Zhang Shiqi entered Huangfengling as a mortal. He must have been sent into the sect as a pawn when he was still a mortal.

It takes several decades until one’s cultivation reaches the foundation-building stage.

Finally, Zhang Shiqi seized the opportunity and stole a precious treasure of his master's sect.

Afterwards, several foundation-building disciples from the sect chased Zhang Shiqi all the way, but in the end none of them returned.

As for Zhang Shiqi's master, who is now one of the Yuanying elders of Huangfengling, he was distracted by other things at the time.

Afterwards, after years of investigation, Huang Fengling only found out that there was a force called the Pluto Cult behind Zhang Shiqi, and he was unable to find out any more information.

"Pluto Cult...?"

Chen Yunhao thought about it carefully in his mind. This force called the Pluto Cult was very unfamiliar and he had never heard of it.

"What treasure did your uncle lose at that time?"

"It's a fist-sized dark crystal."

"Why, is there anyone in Huangfengling practicing the techniques of the underworld?"

Chen Yunhao had read about this Nether Crystal Stone in ancient books. Like the Black Soul Stone, it also came from the Netherworld.

The only difference is that the Nether Crystal Stone has a different effect. It can automatically absorb trace amounts of Netherworld energy between heaven and earth.

There are cultivators in the Tianyuan Realm who practice ghost arts, but most of them cannot achieve anything significant.

Because this world lacks the Netherworld Energy, which is similar to spiritual energy.

The Netherworld Qi is the foundation of the ghost cultivators' cultivation techniques, just like the demon cultivators cannot do without the demonic Qi.

Although Master Tian tried his best to deny it, how could someone who regarded the Nether Crystal Stone as a treasure have no connection with the ghost martial arts?

But this is not important. What kind of martial arts to practice is a personal choice. Chen Yunhao is not a saint and cannot care so much.

Although I have never heard of the name of the Pluto Cult, it is clear what kind of force it is because they went to great lengths to steal the Pluto Crystal Stone.

"You swear a vow in your heart. If you tell a lie, I will be struck by five thunders and I will not be able to advance to the Nascent Soul stage..."

Master Tian hesitated for a moment, then made a vow as Chen Yunhao requested.

This vow is not made casually; once made, it cannot be changed.

If what Master Tian said was true, this oath would have no effect on him at all. On the contrary, it would cause great harm to him.

Chen Yunhao nodded in satisfaction, retracted his spiritual thoughts, and transformed into a long rainbow and flew away at a high speed.

Master Tian's expression was uncertain. He watched Chen Yunhao disappear from afar before continuing to fly towards the sect.

The largest fairy city in Donghua Province is Donghua Fairy City, which is a second-rate fairy city. Of course, it is not as good as Yuxian City, but it is several times larger than Taiyi City.

After leaving Qingshan City, Chen Yunhao headed straight to Donghua Immortal City.

Although he has not been out much in the years since returning to the Northern Yuan Continent, his sources of information are very wide.

Bailing Tower is an extremely mysterious organization on the Beiyuan Continent.

He is different from ordinary chambers of commerce. He is an underground organization that specializes in buying and selling information and assassination business.

Before Zhang Yunhao returned to the Northern Continent, he really didn't know that there was such a mysterious organization.

Later, when I returned to Tianzhen Temple, I came into contact with so many different kinds of monks, and they were all high-level monks, so I was able to get some information that ordinary monks didn't know.

He really didn't know what the Pluto Sect was, and had never even heard of it. He guessed it was some kind of evil cultivator, hated by everyone, and no one knew where it was hiding.

Bailing Tower is rarely seen in ordinary small fairy cities, but Donghua Fairy City, as the largest fairy city in Donghua Province, should have it.

Five days later, Chen Yunhao arrived in Donghua City, a fairy city located in a huge basin.

Entering from the city gate and walking along the main street, Chen Yunhao walked slowly, carefully scanning the shops along the street.

After walking for six or seven streets, I found a teahouse at the corner of a relatively remote street.

On the pillar at the entrance of the teahouse, Chen Yunhao saw a very inconspicuous symbol that looked like an eye.

If he didn't know what this symbol meant, he would probably have thought it was just a child's graffiti.

Walking into the teahouse, it was no different from a normal teahouse.

"Sir, please take a seat inside..."

It is rare that the waiter is actually a mortal.

Generally, shops in the fairy city would at least hire some helpers in the Qi Refining stage, and there are indeed not many mortals.

"I'm looking for your shopkeeper...!"

Chen Yunhao glanced around and saw a middle-aged cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage sitting behind the wooden counter, so he walked straight over.

"What instructions does this senior have?"

"I came to buy a piece of news..."

The shop owner glanced at Chen Yunhao and whispered.

"I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place, Senior!"

“It always works…!”

Chen Yunhao chuckled.

"Senior, please come this way..."

When the teahouse owner heard Chen Yunhao say these four words, his face turned serious and he pointed to the backyard of the teahouse.
