Why don’t you go help?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not good at fighting either,” Wu Zhen answered. “The duty of a shaman is to communicate with Heaven, Earth, and the spirits.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing didn’t believe it for a second—how then to explain the Dragon bones on the Dragon Flaying Altar?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, let’s just hide better, so we don’t get caught in the crossfire,” Chu Danqing said—right as Yue Lan’s martial shadow flew past his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It smashed into a Dragon bone with a crack, then shattered into foam and illusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly dead—its life value dropped to zero instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One down. Should I send your chest piece instead?” Wu Zhen raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Wu Zhen hadn’t come to chat—he’d realized Yue Lan’s martial shadow was no match, and the Son of Heaven would be better suited to fight the undead corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing knew this perfectly well, but his reason for not sending the Son of Heaven was simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was to guard against Wu Zhen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Son of Heaven had a suppressing effect on evil entities—and that applied equally to Wu Zhen’s soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, even if the Son of Heaven went, he’d only be auxiliary; the main force remained Guo Ming, offering little real help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to keep him close for defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine—he’s an athlete. He can revive,” Chu Danqing said, then summoned Yue Lan’s martial shadow again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Lan’s martial shadow, dragging his totem pole, charged back into battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Zhen’s expression didn’t change; he shifted topics and began chatting casually with Chu Danqing, subtly probing about the outside world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re nearly dead—why care about the outside world?” Chu Danqing said bluntly. “Planning to save it for your next life?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m bored. Talking to you won’t hurt,” Wu Zhen replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rather than talk about the outside, let’s talk about the Yin Soldiers,” Chu Danqing said at once. “Before I came, I encountered Yin Soldiers passing through. What’s your take on that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Zhen’s face changed instantly. “Impossible!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh? So you do know something,” Chu Danqing said, surprised by this unexpected windfall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected much—just hoped to glean some intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll be straight with you,” Wu Zhen’s face darkened. “The purpose of this underground palace was never to house the Dragon Flaying Altar—it was simply vacant, so they repurposed it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Beneath this palace lies a Yin-Ming portal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The living may enter the Yin Realm through it; Yin Soldiers may enter the Yang Realm through it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If Yin Soldiers truly passed through here, it means the Yin-Ming portal has malfunctioned.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, Wu Zhen spoke with deep implication: “Then you must be careful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Me? Careful?” Chu Danqing didn’t understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you think, given my current state, I still have the strength to refine your Jade Seal?” Wu Zhen continued. “I’d have to draw on the power of this palace.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But this palace has stood for centuries—and now it’s on the verge of collapse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Without me to maintain it, the moment the refinement succeeds, the palace will crumble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If the Yin-Ming portal hasn’t failed, then all is well,” Wu Zhen didn’t say what would happen if it had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chu Danqing had experienced the horror of Yin Soldiers passing through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How do we fix it?” Chu Danqing asked. “If I just leave, what happens?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Zhen was stunned by the question—he’d expected Chu Danqing to ask how to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Simple,” Wu Zhen didn’t hide it this time—he provided a solution. “First, divert the Huanglong River’s water to flood backward, then—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So before the refinement is complete, we must keep expanding the passage,” Chu Danqing said, looking at the blocked passage, where water still dripped, though in small amounts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire process was simply flooding it, then letting the collapsing palace bury it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Closing it forcibly by physical means.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why Wu Zhen’s era hadn’t chosen this method but instead used the palace to suppress it—no one knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps they hadn’t wanted to—but couldn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps they still can’t now—but this is the only option.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Zhen was now only a feeble soul, and even if all of Chu Danqing’s group were thrown in, it wouldn’t be enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had no choice but to use this imperfect solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also gave Chu Danqing an escape route—just flee as soon as the passage is widened; if you run fast enough, there’s still a chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I understand,” Chu Danqing wasn’t worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The worst case was he’d widen the waterway but fail to escape, forced to waste his remaining trial time and return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the benefit of completing the trial—the escape route always existed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, how would Chu Danqing dare ask?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understand what?” Guo Ming’s voice came over—his expression hadn’t changed, but that meant the battle was over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Mission Complete. You have received: Paradise Points ×20000, Attribute Points +5】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This underground palace—” Chu Danqing began to explain, but Wu Zhen spoke first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Dragon Sin hasn’t been killed yet.” As soon as he spoke, deep cracks appeared across the center of the Dragon Flaying Altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the cracks roared a piercing, shrill wind, howling like a dragon’s cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing peeked out and saw the crude Dragon Flaying Altar’s cracks spreading rapidly, visibly bulging upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed something was relentlessly striking the altar, trying to break free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the crude altar remained stubbornly intact, not shattering immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this was where Wu Zhen had dismembered dragons; the Dragon Sin had been weakened—so it couldn’t escape yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How long until it emerges?” Chu Danqing asked. “Can we ambush it before it comes out?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remember, the 20% boost to all attributes from the Dragon Vein power lasted only twenty minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course,” Wu Zhen hadn’t finished speaking when thick black mist surged from the central crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black mist coalesced and merged into a massive, tangled mass resembling tree roots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the mass, countless dragon heads, claws, and tails emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked grotesquely mismatched—as if forcibly fused together, some even wildly disordered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You won’t have time to ambush,” Wu Zhen finally said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Hidden Mission: Kill the Group of Dragon Sin Before Returning】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Trial Difficulty: S-Rank (Nightmare)】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Trial Reward: Paradise Points ×20000, Attribute Points +5】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Trial Failure: Paradise Points -40000, Random Attribute -2】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mission refreshed; Chu Danqing accepted it immediately, and Guo Ming charged forward at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing moved to a new hiding spot and asked: “By the way, could the Corpse Jiao’s transformation be related to this Dragon Sin?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course. Corpse Jiao is a corpse, not a Jiao.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ordinary Jiao transform toward the sea, but Corpse Jiao become Corpse Dragons,” Wu Zhen hadn’t finished when a violent black mist instantly engulfed the Dragon bone Chu Danqing was hiding behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing grabbed Wu Zhen and ran.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This attack wasn’t aimed at him—it was aimed at Wu Zhen, who had only a soul left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every component of the Dragon Sin was a dragon Wu Zhen had flayed; that hatred had endured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, this attack was accidental—Guo Ming’s sword array sealed it instantly, preventing further harm to Chu Danqing and Wu Zhen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And what about below?\" Chu Danqing found another safe spot before asking again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was simply drawn here by the abomination beneath the Flaying Platform.\" Wu Zhen, still shaken by the scare, had no stomach for further idle chat with Chu Danqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze never left the battle, ready to act the moment Guo Ming faltered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the dragon abomination died and he fulfilled his deal with Chu Danqing, he could rest in peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was nothing like how leisurely Guo Ming had been when dealing with his own undead corpse before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing saw his tone and expression and knew further questioning would yield nothing useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1685,"2026-06-20T00:54:41.633Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","b90432f347ebb9286e5b0ce39c81fd43ed13561fe83a3d0adfbc487cac360a7c","dimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-chapter-227","dimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-chapter-225",305,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-cover.jpg"]
