Chapter 98: The Purest Otsutsuki Bloodline

~37 min read 7,261 words

A white shadow flashed in the mist, scaring Huang Rong and Mu Nianci, and the latter directly threw the hidden dart weapon she had hidden at her waist.

Swish swish swish~~~ The hidden weapon did not hit the ghost shadow.

"Sister Mu, that's a ghost; how can you hit it with ordinary weapons?"

Huang Rong hid behind Chu Yang and complained: "At the very least, you have to smear some black dog blood or something..."

Shooting those two darts had used up all of Mu Nianci's courage; she stood stiffly in place, not daring to look around, fearing that a terrifying face would appear in front of her in the next second.

"Little Chu, hurry up and subdue the demons and monsters; didn't you see Sister Mu is scared like that!"

Huang Rong was so anxious she almost tore Chu Yang's sleeve.

"Please, next time before you complain about others, open your eyes first. You're almost scared to death yourself, yet you talk about others." Chu Yang knocked off the hand pulling his sleeve in disgust, and then unfolded his Observation Haki.

The white shadow just now was very fast, and it was understandable that Huang Rong and the others mistook it for a ghost, but Chu Yang had already captured the other party's figure and could confirm it was a person. Even if it were really a ghost, it wouldn't matter; Chu Yang had the identity of a Shinigami anyway, so he was professionally qualified.

Observation Haki quickly captured the target, and the other party was returning at a very fast speed.

The white shadow flashed by, scaring Huang Rong and Mu Nianci into hugging each other and shivering.

Chu Yang was a bit puzzled; the other party didn't seem to have any malice.

They could have attacked them just now, but they were just scaring people.

Why?

"It feels like they want to drive us out. Could it be..."

A flash of light appeared in Chu Yang's eyes, and he guessed the identity of the white shadow.

He was originally wondering how to find the Tomb of the Living Dead in the mountains, but he didn't expect to find a clue by accident.

When the white shadow flew over their heads for the third time, Chu Yang directly stunned the other party with Conqueror's Haki.

"Hmm..."

A muffled groan came from the white shadow's mouth, and her head fell straight from mid-air as if someone had punched her.

It just happened to land in front of Mu Nianci and Huang Rong.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

The two were scared out of their wits, tears welling up in the corners of their eyes.

"I said you weren't very brave before, never believing in any gods or ghosts. Why are you so jumpy now?"

Chu Yang looked at Huang Rong speechlessly and puzzled; when he first met her, she was still a person who didn't believe in anything.

"I didn't believe in this set before, but after meeting you, I have to believe it even if I don't. A living example is right in front of me."

Huang Rong explained aggrievedly.

Chu Yang suddenly realized; in Huang Rong's view, since he could use magic, it wasn't strange that there were ghosts and gods in the world...

"Miss Huang, this seems to be a person?" Mu Nianci wiped her eyes, which were a bit red and swollen from crying, and after looking at it repeatedly, she confirmed that the person who fell in front of her was a girl in white.

She was not old, even younger than Huang Rong.

And Huang Rong on the other side heard it was a person, frowned, walked to Mu Nianci's side, looked down a few times, and after confirming it was really a person, suddenly lifted her foot to kick her.

Mu Nianci pulled her back in panic: "What is Miss Huang doing?"

"This little girl scared me so badly; I must kick her to death today!" Huang Rong was furious, baring her teeth as if she wanted to eat someone: "Don't stop me, Sister Mu!"

Mu Nianci didn't move away but looked back at Chu Yang helplessly.

Chu Yang reached out and pressed on Huang Rong's head, signaling her to calm down: "Bear with it for now; we still have to rely on her to help find the Tomb of the Living Dead."

Huang Rong turned her head away angrily.

Mu Nianci hurriedly asked: "Brother Chu, is this little girl the descendant of the Ancient Tomb Sect you mentioned?"

Chu Yang nodded.

Huang Rong snorted coldly: "How can this be proven? Besides wearing white, she doesn't have any sect tokens on her."

Chu Yang smiled: "Besides the Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect, there are no outsiders on the mountain. Who else could it be besides the Ancient Tomb Sect, and she's a girl."

Huang Rong didn't commit, silently remembering the girl's appearance.

Chu Yang saw that the little girl was quite vengeful and probably planned to take revenge later.

Judging from her age, this girl was unlikely to be Little Dragon Maiden.

Little Dragon Maiden was at most three or four years old now, while this girl looked only a few years younger than Huang Rong.

The answer was already obvious.

"Fairy of the Red Practice, Li Mochou."

It was hard for Chu Yang to imagine that this girl, who looked pretty and cute, would grow up to be a female demon king.

"Miss Mu, please tie her hands and feet, and then wake her up."

"Okay, Brother Chu."

Mu Nianci followed Chu Yang's instructions, tied Li Mochou's hands and feet, and then gently pinched the other party's philtrum.

With a whimper, Li Mochou slowly woke up.

The moment she saw Chu Yang, her whole body shivered, and she quickly woke up.

"I... how could I..."

Li Mochou spoke incoherently in panic; the strange feeling just now was still fresh in her memory, and her head felt like it had been hit hard.

Chu Yang asked: "I have important matters to pay respects to the head of the Ancient Tomb Sect. May I ask if Miss Li can take us to the Tomb of the Living Dead?"

Li Mochou asked in shock: "How do you know my name? And you know about the Ancient Tomb Sect and the Tomb of the Living Dead."

Chu Yang casually bluffed: "My family is a family friend of Master Wang Chongyang of the Quanzhen Sect, so I know some things that are not known to others."

Huang Rong whispered in his ear: "You told Uncle Yang last time that your family was a hereditary charlatan..."

Chu Yang replied: "Taoist priests are charlatans; isn't it normal for charlatans to be family friends?"

Huang Rong nodded: "Makes sense."

Li Mochou had heard her master talk about the old news between the founder Lin Chaoying and Wang Chongyang.

She knew that the Tomb of the Living Dead where the Ancient Tomb Sect lived now was originally built by Wang Chongyang for seclusion.

Chu Yang claimed that he had old ties with Wang Chongyang and wanted to go to the Tomb of the Living Dead. Standing in Li Mochou's position, it was hard to determine the truth.

The only thing she could be sure of was... the situation was stronger than the person.

Chu Yang was willing to be polite before using force, and Li Mochou understood that it was because she hadn't explicitly refused him, which didn't mean the other party would have the same attitude later.

Li Mochou thought about it and nodded, agreeing to take Chu Yang and the others to the Tomb of the Living Dead.

"They are not familiar with the road to the Tomb of the Living Dead. I'll find a chance to shake off these people, and then I'll find Granny Sun to report."

"Master just passed away, and someone found the Ancient Tomb Sect immediately; they must have bad intentions!"

Li Mochou, who was only in her teens, had all her thoughts written on her face; how could she deceive the clever Huang Rong.

Huang Rong sneered without saying anything, quietly following behind Li Mochou, wanting to see what tricks she was playing.

When several people walked into the dense forest and the fog became thicker, Li Mochou took this opportunity to jump into the fog.

"Stinky girl, I knew you had tricks!"

Huang Rong shouted and was about to use light-body techniques to chase after her, but was pressed on the shoulder by Chu Yang.

She looked back at Chu Yang in confusion.

"We'll just follow behind; she will take us to the Ancient Tomb Sect."

Mu Nianci asked in confusion: "Brother Chu, with such thick fog and us not being familiar with the terrain, it's easy to lose her."

"Don't worry, I know her position."

Observation Haki had already locked onto Li Mochou, and Chu Yang wasn't afraid of losing the other party unless Li Mochou could teleport.

The scenery on both sides was retreating crazily, and Li Mochou used all her strength to perform light-body techniques.

Having lived in the ancient tomb for so many years, this was her first time coming into contact with outsiders. Granny Sun always described people outside as very terrifying, and today, as Granny said, she almost fell into the other party's hands.

"I don't know what kind of evil kung fu that person used, making me lose consciousness in the blink of an eye."

"What if he's a lecherous person, then wouldn't I..."

Li Mochou, running in the cold wind, became more and more afraid as she thought about it, shivering several times.

It must be said that adolescent girls have rich imaginations; in a short while, she imagined Chu Yang as extremely evil.

However, she was only focused on her imagination and didn't notice that Chu Yang and the others were following behind her.

While the dense fog in the forest blocked Chu Yang's vision, it also became his cover.

After following the little girl around in the mountains, the surrounding greenery gradually faded, and Chu Yang looked around, seeing bare dirt slopes everywhere, looking just like a mass grave.

Among them, a tall tombstone was extremely conspicuous.

"Tomb of the Living Dead, is it really a cemetery? I thought it was just a special name..."

The creepy scenery around made Huang Rong look sad, and she and Mu Nianci leaned toward Chu Yang without a sound.

"That grave is the entrance to the Ancient Tomb Sect; let's go over."

Chu Yang walked toward the tall tombstone, looked at it for a while, and directly reached out to press on the tombstone; the material was surprisingly hard.

Huang Rong also learned from Chu Yang and reached out to press on the tombstone, saying in surprise: "So hard, it doesn't seem like ordinary stone."

Mu Nianci asked: "Brother Chu, you said this is the entrance; how do we get in? Should we greet the owner here..."

Chu Yang shook his head and laughed: "I came here this time, to put it nicely, to borrow something, and to put it bluntly, to grab it. If you were the owner, would you invite me in?"

Mu Nianci's eyes widened, unable to speak for a long time. In her heart, Chu Yang was an immortal; how could she evaluate an immortal wanting to grab things from mortals? Huang Rong asked curiously: "Little Chu, what exactly do you want to take?"

Only then did Chu Yang tell them the reason: "Wang Chongyang carved part of the content of the Nine Yin Manual in the Ancient Tomb Sect, and I want to borrow it to read."

"Nine Yin Manual?!"

Huang Rong and Mu Nianci exclaimed at the same time, and Huang Rong looked at Chu Yang with a complicated expression.

"No matter how powerful the Nine Yin Manual is, it's still a mortal martial art. You can already use magic; why do you still want to read this classic?"

"I'm just a bit curious."

Chu Yang brushed it off; he couldn't say that he knew nothing about the concept of martial arts and needed the "Nine Yin Manual" as an encyclopedia for reference.

Otherwise, it was very likely he wouldn't understand other martial arts...

After stating the reason, Chu Yang was about to destroy the entrance when the tombstone in front of him vibrated abruptly.

Chu Yang took a few steps back, the tombstone turned slowly, and a ghostly figure flew out from inside.

"Where did the evil guest come from, so unreasonable, bullying my Ancient Tomb Sect disciples, and even daring to come to the door to provoke?"

The black shadow's movement was like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, she rushed to Chu Yang. Huang Rong and Mu Nianci only felt a blur in front of their eyes, and they didn't even have time to shout "careful."

Back then, in order to beat Wang Chongyang, Lin Chaoying chose to take a shortcut in swordplay, so the Ancient Tomb Sect's martial arts sought speed rather than strength. Lin Chaoying believed that as long as she could hit Wang Chongyang, it would count as her winning even if it wasn't ruthless.

To put it bluntly, it was just a girl in love wanting to win against her boyfriend but not being able to bear being ruthless...

Unfortunately, although Wang Chongyang knew Lin Chaoying's intentions back then, he had made resisting the Jin and Liao his lifelong wish and couldn't accept her.

Simple speed didn't pose a disadvantageous threat to Chu Yang because Observation Haki could predict the enemy's attacks.

The moment the black shadow rushed over, Chu Yang had already kicked out.

Almost as soon as she finished her line, the person's face hit Chu Yang's foot straight on, and she screamed "Ah" and flew backward, falling heavily to the ground.

Huang Rong and Mu Nianci finally saw clearly who attacked Chu Yang: a grandmother in her fifties or sixties...

"Oh my! Granny, are you okay?" Mu Nianci covered her mouth and shouted, hurriedly stepping forward to help the old grandmother.

Chu Yang was also a bit embarrassed, walking while scratching his head: "Old lady, I didn't mean to; please forgive me."

The footprint on the old lady's face was so clear that at first glance, one would think it was a tattoo.

This perfectly placed kick not only interrupted the old lady's attack but also successfully sprained her waist. When Mu Nianci went up to help her, her face looked like she was wearing a mask of pain.

"Ouch, pain, pain, pain..."

The old lady's screams made Chu Yang feel even more ashamed. He was a five-good youth born under the red flag; when had he ever done such a thing as bullying the elderly? "Little Huang! Hurry up and check on the old lady! What are you looking around for?"

Chu Yang turned his head and winked at Huang Rong, who was staring blankly at the tombstone.

"Little Chu, there seems to be a child there..."

Huang Rong pointed to the cave entrance behind the tombstone, where a pink and tender little girl was hiding, peeking out quietly.

"So cute, like a cloth doll!!!"

Huang Rong's eyes were overflowing with love, just like seeing a beloved toy, and she rushed over in one step.

"Long'er, hide quickly!"

The old lady's expression changed, and she shouted anxiously.

The little girl seemed to be scared, turned around and ran, disappearing into the pitch-black entrance. Huang Rong was a bit scared and stopped by the tombstone.

"Old lady, don't be nervous; I have no malice toward the Ancient Tomb Sect and will not hurt you. I just want to see the things Master Wang Chongyang left inside. I'll leave after seeing them and won't stay."

Chu Yang tried his best to make his smile look kind.

"I've lived inside for more than ten years and have never heard of anything Wang Chongyang left behind. Don't try to deceive me!"

The old lady was staring at Chu Yang fiercely, her eyes not forgetting to glare, while she gasped in pain because of her lumbar disc herniation.

Chu Yang curled his lips: "The affairs of the two of them, how could they tell you everything? You're not a dowry maid."

The old lady was so angry she stared blankly.

"Granny, calm down first; I'll massage your waist."

Mu Nianci placed her hands on the old lady's waist. The latter first shivered, then her expression softened a lot; it seemed Mu Nianci's massage was effective.

She had been walking the jianghu with Yang Tiexin for many years, and almost all of Yang Tiexin's falls and injuries were taken care of by her, so she had practiced the craft over time.

Huang Rong also stepped forward to help the old lady treat her waist injury. Her father was Huang Yaoshi, a famous all-rounder with extraordinary medical skills, and she had learned a lot from a young age.

The gentle offensive of the two girls soon captured this old lady, and her attitude was much better than before. After hesitating for a while, she reported her family background.

She was Granny Sun.

Granny Sun was not Lin Chaoying's disciple; she was someone she had accidentally saved, and only after begging hard was she able to enter the Ancient Tomb Sect, nominally considered the housekeeper of the Ancient Tomb Sect.

Lin Chaoying's direct disciple was her personal maid, who was the master of Little Dragon Maiden and Li Mochou.

This person passed away not long ago, which was why Granny Sun and Li Mochou were so sensitive.

Huang Rong was very good at making old people happy, and it didn't take long for her to learn from Granny Sun about the current situation of the Ancient Tomb Sect, which was in a state of succession crisis.

Actually, it couldn't be considered a big deal.

Like the Ancient Tomb Sect, which was indifferent to the world, even if there was a succession crisis, after waiting for ten or twenty years, the next generation of disciples would grow up.

For example, Li Mochou became the Fairy of the Red Practice, who was feared in the jianghu, in about ten years...

Granny Sun's current situation was similar to Li Mochou's before.

Chu Yang's kick just now had already let the old lady know whose fist was harder, and her friendly attitude also had a reason for taking the slope to get off the donkey.

Several people walked down the long stone path, and the dark and humid environment set off a very strong horror movie feeling.

Granny Sun felt the two hands grabbing her arms getting tighter and tighter, so she laughed happily: "Little girls, don't be afraid; it's just this road that's a bit dark, and it will be fine further down."

As Granny Sun said, after passing through the long stone path, the space in front became bright.

"Back then, Wang Chongyang opened up a stone chamber for seclusion here."

Granny Sun introduced the Ancient Tomb Sect to the two little girls with pride.

She originally thought they would be amazed by the craftsmanship of the Ancient Tomb Sect, but she didn't expect Huang Rong and Mu Nianci to be very calm, and even a bit bored.

Granny Sun froze.

She didn't know that Huang Rong and Mu Nianci had already seen more powerful things.

Compared to Chu Yang's wonderful means of creating mysteries in a small space, opening up a stone chamber in the mountains really couldn't be considered magical.

Granny Sun turned around awkwardly, coughed dryly and said: "Ahem, this little brother, this is the Ancient Tomb Sect. What exactly is the thing Wang Chongyang left behind? I have been here for many years and have indeed never heard the founder mention it."

Chu Yang didn't answer directly but asked: "May I ask which room is the tomb chamber where you worship the founder Lin Chaoying?"

Granny Sun said with some difficulty: "That is a restricted area of the sect, and outsiders cannot enter."

The atmosphere suddenly froze.

Seeing this, Huang Rong hurriedly stepped forward, took Granny Sun's hand, and acted like a spoiled child: "Granny, we didn't come to make trouble. The reason we want to enter the tomb chamber of founder Lin Chaoying is entirely because we admire such a strange woman and want to pay our respects!"

"Little Chu said that founder Lin Chaoying's martial arts and talent were far above Wang Chongyang's, but she was trapped by love, which is why she was willing to fall behind others. If it were really calculated, she is the true number one in the world!"

Huang Rong, with her glib tongue, gave a rainbow fart, making Granny Sun feel like she was floating; let alone her, even if Lin Chaoying were resurrected, she probably wouldn't be able to handle it.

Chu Yang rolled his eyes; he had never said anything similar to Huang Rong, but he himself felt that Lin Chaoying's talent and talent were higher than Wang Chongyang's.

The "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" breaks all the martial arts of the Quanzhen Sect. Wang Chongyang was fundamentally unable to reverse-engineer the moves within the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" and was forced to give up. Later, after winning the "Nine Yin Manual" at the Mount Hua Sword Contest, he used the martial arts principles within it to devise a method to break it, thereby turning the tables.

"Little brother's family is a family friend of Wang Chongyang, and being able to say such fair comments makes me look at you with new eyes. Well, since that's the case, I'll take you to pay your respects to founder Lin Chaoying."

At this time, Little Dragon Maiden and Li Mochou had not yet grown up and could not be called the head of the Ancient Tomb Sect. Granny Sun, the housekeeper, decided on their behalf, which could not be considered overstepping.

Subsequently, Granny Sun took the three to Lin Chaoying's tomb chamber, which was also the tomb chamber of the heads of the Ancient Tomb Sect through the ages.

Li Mochou's master had just been buried, and a hundred years later, Little Dragon Maiden would also be buried here.

After walking for a while, Chu Yang, who was at the end of the line, suddenly heard movement behind him, and the sound of a sharp sword piercing the air entered his ears.

"Thief, take the sword!"

"Miss, stop!"

Two voices sounded one after another.

Chu Yang used Armament Haki to take the sneak attack from behind, but the moment the sword tip pierced his back, he suddenly felt a trace of stinging pain.

Although it was very slight and could be ignored, it showed that the internal energy carried by the sword tip broke through the defense of Armament Haki! Chu Yang was a bit surprised.

Unfortunately, Li Mochou's internal energy was too weak, and the long sword in her hand shattered with a bang, and she herself was bounced away. Granny Sun's face changed drastically. Although Li Mochou was young, her internal energy was already at the entry level. That little brother surnamed Chu actually bounced her away just by relying on hard kung fu; his horizontal practice attainments were truly amazing!

Li Mochou fell head over heels, seeing stars, and was in too much pain to speak.

"Senior Sister!"

In the distance was that pink-carved and jade-carved little doll again, rushing toward Li Mochou, but she couldn't walk steadily, and running was even more like playing drunken boxing, swaying.

No surprise, she fell firmly on her butt, sitting on the ground and crying loudly.

Granny Sun stepped forward to help Li Mochou up, then held the little girl in her arms, comforted her in a low voice, and turned to Li Mochou: "Miss Mochou, Mr. Chu and the others have no malice; they just want to pay respects to founder Lin Chaoying. Don't be rude again!"

Li Mochou looked at Chu Yang angrily; it was all thanks to this man that she had fallen twice today, and her body was almost falling apart!

"Granny, they are clearly bad people..."

"Shut up!"

Granny Sun spoke sternly to Li Mochou for the first time, scaring the latter, and the words behind stopped abruptly.

Whether it was an old friend or a bad person, for Granny Sun now, the most important thing was that both sides were safe and sound. As for what Chu Yang and the others wanted to take away, she didn't want to ask anymore.

If she insisted on pursuing it, maybe today would be the day the Ancient Tomb Sect was destroyed. If there was really a mistake, how could she explain it to founder Lin Chaoying in the underworld? Seeing the atmosphere become awkward again, Huang Rong immediately turned into a little ice-breaking expert, walked to Granny Sun's side, and teased the little girl. Before long, the little girl who was crying was teased by her until she laughed uncontrollably.

"Granny, what is this little cutie's name?"

"Her name is Long'er, an orphan adopted by the head of the sect."

"Long'er? The name is really nice. Long'er, be good, don't be afraid. Brother and sister are not bad people, don't worry."

Long'er lay in Granny Sun's arms, staring with round eyes, looking at Huang Rong, and then her gaze turned and stared at Chu Yang.

It really is Little Dragon Maiden...

Mu Nianci also stepped forward to tease Little Dragon Maiden.

"Hahaha, itchy, sister don't."

Mu Nianci didn't choose to show mercy, constantly tickling the other party's ticklish spots.

Chu Yang took a few deep breaths.

Although I'm not a lolicon, this is really a bit hard to hold back! Comrade Chu Yang finally fell, and his feet couldn't help but walk forward.

The next moment, a figure blocked his way.

Li Mochou snorted coldly in anger.

"You are not allowed to touch!"

After pushing the angry Li Mochou aside, Granny Sun led Chu Yang and the others into Lin Chaoying's tomb chamber. Pushing open the stone door, what came into view was a scroll as tall as a person.

On the scroll was a beautiful woman, with heroic spirit between her brows, looking around with brilliance, perfectly fitting the word "heroine."

"This is founder Lin Chaoying. If you want to pay your respects, please come with me."

While speaking, Granny Sun walked behind the scroll, took out a few sticks of incense, handed them to Chu Yang, Huang Rong, and Mu Nianci respectively, and then lit them one by one.

Chu Yang was truly respectful to this strange woman, so he bent down to bow, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner on the offering table.

Huang Rong and Mu Nianci did the same.

Granny Sun asked with a smile: "You've seen it, you've paid your respects, and you've seen the Ancient Tomb Sect seven or eight out of ten along the way. Have you seen the relics left by Wang Chongyang?"

Chu Yang pointed to the top of the tomb chamber.

Granny Sun looked up in the direction Chu Yang pointed, and the whole person froze.

The top of the tomb chamber was covered with characters. Granny Sun read it carefully and found that it was the full text of their Ancient Tomb Sect's unique skill, "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra"! Huang Rong and Mu Nianci only took one look, and they heard Chu Yang remind them in their ears: "This is the unique skill of the Ancient Tomb Sect; we'd better not look too much."

The two girls knew the importance and hurriedly looked away.

"The things we need are in the tomb chamber next door, so we won't stay long..."

Chu Yang turned and left, but heard Granny Sun ask from behind.

"May I ask Mr. Chu, what is written in the tomb chamber next door?"

Chu Yang explained: "In the past, founder Lin Chaoying broke all the martial arts of the Quanzhen Sect with the martial arts in the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra and carved it in the tomb chamber. Master Wang Chongyang was helpless about this."

"Many years later, at the Huashan Sword Discussion, he won the Nine Yin Manual and, by referring to the martial arts mysteries in the manual, thought of a way to restrain the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, and together with the Nine Yin Manual, carved it in another tomb chamber."

Granny Sun snorted coldly: "Shameless!"

Chu Yang shook his head and laughed, didn't make much comment, pushed open the door of another tomb chamber, and looked up to see the Nine Yin Manual carved on the stone wall above.

He read ten lines at a glance and soon remembered the full text.

It was just that he wasn't familiar with the martial arts concepts inside and needed some time to learn.

Granny Sun followed closely, looking at Chu Yang reciting the Nine Yin Manual silently with a complicated expression. If it were anyone else today, she wouldn't let the other party walk out of this ancient tomb.

Even Huang Rong and Mu Nianci.

A treasure like the Nine Yin Manual was enough to make anyone in the world crazy. If the news leaked out, many martial arts masters would probably swarm to the Tomb of the Living Dead to snatch the treasure.

This was undoubtedly a devastating disaster for them.

"Granny Sun, please rest assured; today's matter will never reach the ears of a third person."

After reciting the Nine Yin Manual silently, Chu Yang took the lead to dispel Granny Sun's doubts.

"Thank you, Mr. Chu."

Granny Sun breathed a sigh of relief.

The purpose of this trip had been achieved, and Chu Yang prepared to say goodbye and leave.

Before leaving, Granny Sun gave a few jars of honey.

Chu Yang pointed out the secret of the tomb chamber and left a Nine Yin Manual for the Ancient Tomb Sect, so giving a few jars of honey wasn't too heavy a heart.

The Ancient Tomb Sect was indifferent to the world and couldn't produce a treasure equivalent to the value of the Nine Yin Manual.

Granny Sun sent Chu Yang and the others out of the ancient tomb. Little Dragon Maiden in her arms began to cry. After spending half a day together, she was already familiar with the two sisters and was now a bit reluctant to part.

Li Mochou stared at Chu Yang the whole time, her anger still not gone, and she could only leave a harsh word that wasn't really harsh: "When my martial arts are successful, I will definitely avenge today's shame!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she received a slap on the back of the head from Granny Sun, which made her run away in a panic, and the harsh words turned into screams.

"Ouch! Ouch! Granny, don't hit me! I know I was wrong!"

Li Mochou begged for mercy with tears in her eyes.

Amidst her screams, everyone left Mount Zhongnan and headed toward the Northern Song territory.

Naruto world.

Hidden Leaf Village, underground in the Forest of Death.

Chu Yang's secret laboratory was working in an orderly manner. The task of extracting the Otsutsuki bloodline had reached the final step. A bloodline factor analyzer a full ten meters high stood in the center of the laboratory, constantly vibrating and making a buzzing sound.

Many shadow clones watched this machine nervously.

Drip~ drip~ drip~ The green indicator light on the instrument lit up, indicating that the extraction and synthesis of bloodline factors had been completed.

Chu Yang took a deep breath, stepped forward, and took out a crystal-clear test tube from the instrument.

The thing inside was between liquid and gas, a crystal-clear atomized body, dreamlike and very dazzling.

This was the bloodline factor of the Otsutsuki clan! "Finally succeeded!!!"

The shadow clones were all cheering; only he himself knew who could understand Chu Yang's hard work during this period.

A moment later, Chu Yang lay into the biological chamber that had been prepared early, instructing the clones to complete the subsequent transplant surgery.

The test tube containing the bloodline factors was placed into the groove at the top of the biological chamber. As the indicator light lit up, the bloodline factors inside dissipated rapidly and were injected into Chu Yang's body.

The inside and outside of the biological chamber were wrapped in a large amount of crystal-like gas, and the shadow clones outside seemed to have been attacked by an unknown force, disappearing one after another.

The laboratory became very empty, quiet and a bit creepy.

At the same time, the biological chamber issued a rapid alarm, and the red indicator light flashed crazily.

The mist that permeated out also turned blood-red.

The alarm rang for I don't know how long, then suddenly stopped abruptly, and the red mist was sucked away by a powerful suction force, rolling back and shrinking into the biological chamber.

When the vision gradually cleared, Chu Yang's figure appeared quietly. His appearance had changed greatly, as if he had grown from a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy to a twenty-seven or twenty-eight-year-old young man overnight.

His black hair also turned white.

His body became stronger, and a terrifying sense of oppression radiated faintly from his body...

The next moment.

Chu Yang opened his eyes suddenly; his pupils were no longer black, but snow-white, with a faint gold in the deepest part.

Subsequently.

The pupils changed again, revealing spiral patterns, and black dots in the shape of tomoe appeared and disappeared around them.

"Is this pair of eyes of mine the Rinnegan, or the Tenseigan? Or both?"

Chu Yang was very curious; he could feel that his eyes possessed very powerful power, especially in the field of time and space.

With the help of bloodline factor technology, Chu Yang could be said to be the Otsutsuki clan member with the highest bloodline concentration at present, perhaps even exceeding Kaguya Otsutsuki.

It was unknown what changes would occur in his Kekkei Genkai.

"No wonder so many people are obsessed with the pleasure brought by power. This feeling of having everything in one's hands is really wonderful."

Chu Yang smiled slightly, then clenched his fists, instantly opening Sage Mode. A golden haori woven from chakra appeared on his body, radiating terrifying energy fluctuations.

Because the fusion effect of the bloodline factors was even better than Chu Yang imagined, the Six Paths Sage Mode he mastered at this moment was also more powerful than expected.

"Now I might be able to compete with the Six Paths Sage himself..."

Chu Yang smiled with satisfaction, then canceled Sage Mode and walked into another room, which was also filled with instruments.

In the center were nine huge glass jars, containing part of the chakra of the nine Tailed Beasts, and there was a sealing array at the bottom of the jars.

This was the cultivation room for the Ten-Tails.

The Ten-Tails was the embodiment of the God Tree. If Chu Yang wanted to obtain the God Tree fruit, he had to resurrect the Ten-Tails. He couldn't learn from Kaguya Otsutsuki and use the planet under his feet as nutrients.

He had no intention of becoming a public enemy of the world, especially standing on the opposite side of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.

Chu Yang summoned shadow clones to continue the previous work, and the laboratory fell into a busy state again.

"A Demon-level monster was found nearby this morning. Please leave as soon as possible and go to other cities for refuge."

Chu Yang, who was planning to go to work, looked back at the news on the TV, dazed.

Since coming to this world, Chu Yang had lived in fear almost every day.

The terrifying attacks of monsters never stopped, destroying a block of streets today and killing a bunch of civilians tomorrow.

The death toll reported on TV news often stimulated Chu Yang's nerves, reminding him that he might be the next victim.

The most desperate time was one morning when Chu Yang heard in the company that a colleague had passed away due to a monster attack.

That was a girl who looked very good when she smiled.

They were drinking together the night before.

The girl was gentle and kind, often encouraging the negative Chu Yang, encouraging him to face the world positively.

He even fantasized about what it would be like for them to fall in love later.

As a result...

The unfortunate news almost crushed Chu Yang's last psychological defense.

If only he had encountered the monster with the girl at that time and left this disgusting world together.

Such thoughts were deeply engraved in Chu Yang's mind.

Transmigrating to such a world made Chu Yang feel a sense of powerlessness and fatigue from the bottom of his heart.

I can't do anything; what's the point of living in this world like this?

Chu Yang put down his briefcase and also put down the idea of following the crowd to escape.

He took one last look at the TV, confirmed the location of the Demon-level monster, and left the apartment alone.

Rather than living in fear like this, it's better to bravely choose how to die.

On the street, people were dragging their families, driving if they had cars, and walking if they didn't, countless people were trying to stay away from the direction where the monster appeared.

Chu Yang was like a reef, going against the current in the crowd.

A kind passerby thought he was scared silly, so he pulled his arm and said: "Little brother, you're going in the wrong direction; there's a Demon-level monster over there!"

Chu Yang pushed the passerby's hand away, nodded to express his gratitude, and then disappeared into the crowd.

Looking at Chu Yang's departing back, the passerby seemed to understand something, and his expression suddenly became dim.

Just like that, there were fewer and fewer people around Chu Yang.

By the time he walked near the once busiest park, there was no one around! It was quiet all around, as if the city had already died.

"Woo... woo... Mom."

Crying came from the front. After looking closely, Chu Yang found a little boy standing at the park entrance, and his mother was paralyzed on the ground beside him.

The woman covered her calf painfully, which was blue and purple, and seemed to have been broken when she was fleeing, so she lost her mobility.

As the crowd went further and further away, a look of despair appeared on the boy's mother's face.

Chu Yang stopped and looked dazed.

Should he go find that Demon-level monster, or help this mother and son leave?

"Even if I help, they won't go far, and in the end, they will still be chased and killed by the Demon-level monster. It's meaningless..."

Thinking of this, Chu Yang stepped forward and bypassed the little boy and his mother with a blank expression.

"Big brother, don't go over there; there are monsters over there, you will die!"

The little boy saw Chu Yang and hurriedly ran up to pull his trouser leg, crying so hard he couldn't speak clearly.

"You... aren't you here to ask me for help?"

Chu Yang was a bit surprised.

"Mom said you can't help us alone, and you can't be dragged down, so let me tell you to leave quickly!"

The little boy gritted his teeth, trying hard to cry softly, and his mother also told him to leave quickly, but he was unwilling to leave at all.

The little boy subconsciously pulled Chu Yang's trouser leg tightly, and the latter also realized that the other party actually wanted to ask him for help.

In the end, the little boy let go and watched Chu Yang leave silently.

Just as Chu Yang was about to disappear from the little boy's field of vision, he suddenly stopped, turned around and walked back, and without a word, carried the woman on his back.

"Run faster, the monster is coming!"

Hearing Chu Yang's reminder, the little boy nodded with ecstasy, and his mother also kept thanking him on Chu Yang's back.

Chu Yang didn't respond, exerting all his strength to run forward, using the greatest strength of his life.

Unfortunately...

He was just an ordinary person.

After running for a while, he was out of breath, and his speed became slower and slower.

In the end.

They met that Demon-level monster at a crossroads!

Facing death, Chu Yang was calmer than imagined, and the woman on his back was already trembling violently.

The sound of teeth colliding violently entered Chu Yang's ears.

The little boy was out of his wits, his expression dazed.

In front of him was a monster covered in black armor, looking a bit like a moth. He looked at Chu Yang with a playful look and said: "Actually, I have been following behind you, just wanting to see you struggling to survive. Thanks to you, it's very interesting. If I have a chance, I want to see it again."

Chu Yang put down the woman and exhorted: "I know you can't move because of the pain, but if you want your child to survive, you have to move even if you can't."

After saying that, Chu Yang walked toward the moth monster alone.

The woman understood that Chu Yang intended to use his life to buy them time, and cried as she pulled the child and ran to the other side of the street.

The moth monster watched with interest and didn't stop them, but pretended to be curious and asked: "What is the meaning of you doing this? Do you really think you can stop me?"

Taking off his loose tie, tying it on his hand, and then taking a cigarette out of his pocket and lighting it, Chu Yang replied: "I said from the beginning that it was meaningless, but before I die, I want to ask you a question."

"Ask." The moth monster grinned; it hadn't met such an interesting human for a long time.

"Two months ago, did you meet a girl nearby?"

"Girl? Hmm... Oh! I remember, there was indeed a girl. I was in a good mood that day and went out for a stroll. On the way, I felt like I bumped into something, and found out it was a person..."

The moth monster laughed hysterically: "She was too weak, just like an ant. I didn't notice her at all. It was just passing by, and she died after a light bump, hahaha!"

"Hmm, I see." Chu Yang threw the last cigarette butt to his feet and stepped on it, rushing toward the moth monster.

The moth monster scratched its head and waved its hand lightly, sweeping Chu Yang away.

Chu Yang was like a doll, falling heavily on the car by the road. The car door was dented by him, and the glass shattered all over the floor.

"Hahaha, you don't really think of yourself as a hero, do you?"

"Then... Mr. Hero, I still have to find that mother and son, so I'll go first. You just wait here to die."

Listening to the moth monster's mocking words, Chu Yang kept spitting blood, and the world in his eyes gradually dimmed.

I don't know how long it passed.

He heard someone calling him.

"Hey, rookie, still sleeping here?"

"Get up for the meeting!"
