Chapter 935 Opportunity to Become an Immortal
Bai Konggu led Fang Yu directly to the farthest position.
A slightly overweight man in gray robes was standing there.
“Release the image of the snow plains from the Far North,” Bai Konggu ordered.
“That… particular one?” the man asked, his chubby face trembling, eyes filled with fear.
The content of that image was truly terrifying; after seeing it once, he couldn’t eat for two consecutive days.
“Yes,” Bai Konggu answered.
The man placed both hands on the glass sphere, closed his eyes, and silently recited an incantation.
Moments later, an image immediately appeared on the glass sphere.
In an icy, snow-covered landscape, two elongated snow stones crossed each other, revealing a triangular opening.
It was precisely the location Fang Yu had visited that morning.
Fang Yu’s gaze sharpened as he stared intently at the image on the glass sphere.
At this moment, the scene was quite peaceful.
After about five or six seconds, a dark shadow entered the field of vision.
From the appearance, this was a man wearing black clothes.
The man walked to the triangular opening formed by the two crossed snow stones, paused for two seconds, and then stepped inside.
At this moment, the triangular opening emitted a flash of light.
Afterward, the figure disappeared without a trace.
“This man entered this ancient relic site,” Bai Konggu glanced at Fang Yu and said, “About forty minutes later, he came out.”
As he spoke, the image on the glass sphere began to accelerate.
Soon, the scene changed again.
The triangular opening formed by the two intersecting snow stones glowed once more.
The figure of the black-clothed man suddenly appeared outside the triangular opening.
But this man kept his head down, making his face unclear in the image.
“We sent out a small team to investigate his identity. They revealed themselves, wanting to question him,” Rao Donghai said from the side.
Soon, four people wearing black robes appeared in the scene.
They walked up to the black-clothed man, and the leader seemed to be saying something.
But in the next second, the situation changed dramatically!
The black-clothed man suddenly extended his right hand, grabbed the skull of the person talking to him, and lifted the entire person up.
Then, a black flame-like substance suddenly rose from the black-clothed man’s hand, enveloping the person.
Within a second or two, this gray-robed person from the Skygazing Bureau disappeared without a trace.
The other three gray-robed people, seeing this scene, scattered in terror.
The three had just fled behind the two snow stones.
At this point, the black-clothed man waved his right hand forward, and the black substance scattered forward.
The three gray-robed people, touched by the black mist, immediately convulsed in agony, fell to the ground, their flesh rapidly consumed, leaving only some dismembered limbs and blood staining the snow.
The black-clothed man paused again, then suddenly raised his head.
At this moment, his face became visible.
His appearance was ordinary, but his eyes, full of malice and glowing red, sent chills down one’s spine!
Fang Yu also noticed that this person had a small mark on his forehead.
The exact shape of this mark wasn’t clear, but it was black.
The man grinned, revealing a cold and arrogant smile, then his figure flashed and disappeared from view.
“That’s what happened… the remains you saw this morning were from the team we sent from the Skygazing Bureau,” Bai Konggu turned his head to look at Fang Yu and said.
Fang Yu frowned slightly without speaking.
He suddenly recalled what had happened to Miyajima Hideo from the East Sun Trading Company some time ago.
His car was stopped by the roadside, the driver was missing, Miyajima Hideo was missing, and only half a corpse remained.
And the ground outside the car was also stained with a large amount of blood.
This manner of death seemed similar to what he had just witnessed happening to the four gray-robed people sent by the Skygazing Bureau.
But Miyajima Hideo had no connection with the Skygazing Bureau or ancient relics.
“It probably isn’t the same person,” Fang Yu thought.
“We are now making every effort to investigate the identity of this black-clothed man… He entered the ancient relic, received the inheritance, and left in about forty minutes,” Bai Konggu said with a grave expression. “This speed is incredibly fast.”
“Fang Yu, you have also entered ancient relics before.”
“Do you think it’s possible to obtain an inheritance and leave so quickly?”
Hearing Bai Konggu’s question, Fang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly as he thought seriously.
Honestly, if one entered an ancient relic without other distractions, purely for the inheritance… it wouldn’t take too long.
For instance, last time, from entering the giant sky-reaching python’s mouth to obtaining the Heart of the Sun Flame, it actually took him less than three minutes.
He stayed there for so long only because people like Jiukong and Long Shi had caused many delays.
“It’s possible,” Fang Yu said. “Of course, one must have the corresponding abilities.”
Hearing Fang Yu’s answer, Bai Konggu and Rao Donghai exchanged glances, both looking surprised.
“Can’t even your Skygazing Bureau identify this person?” Fang Yu asked curiously.
“We don’t have a way yet,” Bai Konggu said. “There’s too little information about him.”
“Don’t you know exactly when ancient relics open?” Fang Yu said. “Just wait for him at the entrance of the next opening ancient relic, and you can find out everything.”
“This person is too powerful, and his methods are extremely cruel… Most of our subordinates would be no match for him and would just be sent to their deaths,” Bai Konggu said gravely.
“I see… then there’s indeed not much that can be done,” Fang Yu shrugged and said.
“I can inform you in advance when the next ancient relic opens,” Bai Konggu looked at Fang Yu, narrowing his eyes slightly, and said, “If you’re interested, you can go meet this person.”
“You’re clearly using me as a pawn,” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and said.
“Whether you go or not is your choice. I will only inform you of when the next ancient relic opens,” Bai Konggu revealed a slight smile and said, “With your strength, we can’t force you to do anything.”
“Fine, it depends on my mood. If I have time, I might go,” Fang Yu said as he turned to leave.
After taking a few steps, he stopped and looked at Rao Donghai, saying, “Take me back to find my people.”
…
Rao Donghai led Fang Yu to find Ye Shengxue, and then they walked outside together.
When passing through the courtyard with the three stone tablets, Fang Yu stopped.
On the Immortal Communication Stele, that half name and those strange five symbols were still engraved.
“By the way, I want to ask, are the names on this Immortal Communication Stele ranked according to strength?” Fang Yu asked.
Rao Donghai looked up at the stele, his eyes showing reverence.
“Not so,” Rao Donghai shook his head slightly and said, “The names on the Immortal Communication Stele are arranged in chronological order.”
“Chronological?” Fang Yu frowned slightly, looking at Rao Donghai.
“According to Elder Bai, being on the Immortal Communication Stele means having a great chance of becoming an immortal,” Rao Donghai said. “Therefore, the first name on the stele only means they were the first to reach this realm. But it doesn’t mean they are stronger than those below.”
“Everyone on the Immortal Communication Stele may not be at the same level, but they all have an equal chance of becoming immortals.”
“That’s the significance of the Immortal Communication Stele.”
Fang Yu looked at the first name on the stele.
Bai Wuya.
He had no impression of this name.
As for the half name below, Fang Yu could basically rule himself out.
He was only at the Qi Refinement stage; what chance did he have of becoming an immortal?
“Let’s go.”
Fang Yu said to Rao Donghai, then led Ye Shengxue toward the exit.
…
Later that evening, in the dilapidated courtyard in northern North City.
“You shouldn’t have told him so much information,” True Person Xiu stood on the top-floor balcony, hunched over, looking at the large forest ahead, speaking in a slightly cold tone.
“True Person Xiu, I believe this is a good opportunity,” Bai Konggu said with a slight bow.
“Opportunity? Do you think he would willingly let you use him as a pawn to confront that black-clothed man?” True Person Xiu turned his head to look at Bai Konggu and asked.
“He won’t be used as a pawn by me, but he might engage with the black-clothed man,” Bai Konggu said. “For a powerful person like Fang Yu, he won’t care about other things, but the inheritance from ancient relics still holds attraction for him.”
