Chapter 398: Wu Shi Dadi

"Woof woof! Mine, it's all mine."

The big black dog was incredibly excited; he ran forward and immediately collected the Divine Source.

He had been eyeing it for a long time, but with that Taigu Ancestor King there, he could only watch longingly.

Now that the Taigu Ancestor King had been killed, he naturally would not be polite anymore.

Neither Yin Qi nor Jiang Taixu objected; although Divine Source was precious to them, it was just so-so.

There is no need to mention Jiang Taixu; as a Desolate Ancient Family, they certainly did not lack Divine Source.

Yin Qi possessed the Po Wang Eye, so he would not lack it either.

Without stopping, they continued forward.

Soon, a row of Crystal Coffin appeared ahead, each ancient and simple, with dull luster, densely packed and engraved with patterns.

Every coffin was engraved with Taigu divine script; after a brief Deduction, Yin Qi recognized all the characters. They were actually engraved by the Undying Emperor, and inside were all the former subordinates of the Undying Emperor.

Wu Shi Dadi had long since become a Red Dust Immortal; placed in the Primordial World, that would be a Mysterious Immortal, even higher than his own cultivation.

This imprint was not intentionally left by Wu Shi Dadi, but rather he was too strong—so strong that wherever he stayed, his imprint would remain in the Space-Time, unable to dissipate for over a hundred thousand years.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Black Emperor to live safely inside here for so many years.

Such a figure commands awe.

Yin Qi's gaze was sharp; he knew that was the imprint left by Wu Shi Dadi in the void.

At the end of the Immortal Path, who is the peak? Upon meeting Wu Shi, the Dao becomes empty.

Perhaps two ancient corpses had once mutated and pushed their way out of the coffins, but with Gu Tianshu guarding here, those two mutated corpses must have been slain long ago.

In a trance, Yin Qi seemed to see a towering back, sitting cross-legged on a high platform with his back to them; traversing the long river of history, that back seemed to be the entire world.

Jiang Taixu muttered to himself; it was clear that he too had seen the imprint left by Wu Shi Dadi.

Finally, at the end of the path, a huge Dao platform appeared.

They did not stop; soon, the aura ahead became peaceful, Orchid Dragon Grass gradually increased, and many cliff rocks were steaming with purple and auspicious Qi.

It seemed these skeletons had already mutated, and even two coffins had been opened, empty inside.

Looking at the Dao platform, a look of sadness flashed in Black Emperor's eyes.

Below grew Dragon Grass and divine orchids, and above, Chaos Qi swirled, hanging down in strand after strand; every single wisp could crush the ancient heavens and worlds!

This place was extremely special and mysterious, as if it connected the ancient, the present, and the future, linking with all worlds.

"Wu Shi Dadi!"

Soon, he said excitedly: "Woof woof, Yin Qi, I brought you here, now can you return my pet to me? Look, there, there, and there, all have Medicine King growing."

"Is that Wu Shi Dadi!"

Yin Qi frowned slightly; he felt a dense, eerie aura.

Medicine King—one must grow for at least eighty or ninety thousand years to earn this title.

In this row of Crystal Coffin, each one contained a terrifying corpse, like a Ghost; the hair was withered and yellow, the skin pitch-black, dried up and hideous.

However, seeing Black Emperor's indifferent appearance, he felt slightly at ease.

The medicinal properties were excellent, possessing the divine effect of bringing the dead back to life.

At a glance, just in the crevices of the foundation stone wall of the Dao platform, more than a dozen Medicine King had grown.

If it were on the Dao platform, there would likely be even more Medicine King.

Yin Qi suppressed his laughter and said: "When did I ever promise you that I would return the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine to you?"

"You... you know, woof woof!"

Black Emperor widened his dog eyes, stood up on his hind legs, and looked as if he wanted to pounce.

But in the end, he held back and could only bark loudly.

He never imagined that Yin Qi, this little brat, would have such insight and recognize the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine; one must know that the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine had always been in Purple Mountain and had been extinct in the outside world for over a hundred thousand years.

"That is the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine!"

Jiang Taixu was also shocked; this was the exclusive divine medicine of a Great Emperor.

Because the quantity of Undying Divine Medicine was limited, even his ancestor, Hengyu Great Emperor, had never obtained it.

However, he felt no jealousy, only congratulations in his heart.

Yin Qi smiled and nodded, saying to Black Emperor: "Don't even think about the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine, but since you brought us here, let's split the Medicine King we harvest next."

Jiang Taixu naturally had no objections.

Black Emperor was still somewhat indignant, but finally nodded and said: "Fine, splitting is splitting, but you have to help me with Alchemy, and you cannot skim off my Pill."

"Deal!"

Yin Qi said happily.

In any case, how many pills were produced was up to him to decide.

Moreover, he had mastered a new method of Alchemy, which not only had a higher success rate but also better quality, giving him more room to maneuver.

"Dead dog, go on, the rest is up to your performance."

Black Emperor stared and said: "What, you want me to go pick them? Didn't you see the Chaos Qi hanging down all around?"

Yin Qi looked at Black Emperor and said meaningfully: "I believe no one is more suitable than you."

This was Wu Shi Dadi's Dao platform; it would certainly repel outsiders intensely.

But it would certainly not repel Black Emperor.

The reason Black Emperor hadn't come before was likely because the Taigu Ancestor King had blocked the path.

Yin Qi's gaze made Black Emperor feel flustered, as if all his secrets had been seen through.

He had no choice but to say guiltily: "Fine, fine, I'll go if I have to. But I want forty percent, and you two get thirty percent each. Otherwise, we might as well just head back."

"Good!"

Yin Qi nodded, and Jiang Taixu had no objections either.

Black Emperor swaggered forward; when that terrifying Chaos Qi touched him, it actually dissipated on its own, just like a smart door welcoming its master home.

"This..."

Jiang Taixu was secretly startled, a look of contemplation flashing in his eyes.

Yin Qi, however, secretly said to himself, "As expected."

Wherever Black Emperor passed, not a blade of grass remained.

Not only the Medicine King and Treasure Medicine, but even the Ordinary spiritual herbs were all swept clean by him, and then he nimbly jumped onto the high platform for another round of looting.

Wu Shi Dadi had already disappeared, and even if he hadn't, these Medicine Kings would have had no effect on him.

Since that was the case, why leave them behind?

This Purple Mountain had Ancient Race members slumbering within, and with an Ancestor King of the Taigu era dead, it would certainly alarm them completely.

It would likely be difficult to enter again in the future.

Very quickly, Black Emperor jumped down from the high platform, and the Chaos Qi descended once more, shrouding the entire high platform.

"Let's go, let's head out. If we drag this out too long, I worry that more Ancestor Kings of the Ancient Race will awaken!"

Black Emperor said, taking the lead to leave.

The return journey was smooth and unobstructed, and the two men and one dog finally exited the ancient mine after half a day, returning to the surface outside.

"It has been a long time!"

Jiang Taixu looked up at the azure Heaven, sighing endlessly.

Four thousand years!

The old friends and lovers of the past, were they still there?

Black Emperor was also excitedly looking left and right; he had slumbered in the Divine Source for over a hundred thousand years and only emerged recently, but he had been wandering around inside Purple Mountain the whole time.

Yin Qi asked, "God King, you damn dog, what are your plans?"

Jiang Taixu's gaze flickered, his voice filled with both anticipation and trepidation, mixed with various complex emotions as he said, "I want to go see if the old friends from those years are still around. Brother Yin, we must part ways here."

The old friend he spoke of was, of course, his confidante, Caiyun Xianzi.

Back then, Caiyun Xianzi and Jiang Taixu were in love, but due to the obstruction of the Taichu Sacred Land, the two of them could not be together.

In the original story, in order to save Jiang Taixu, Caiyun Xianzi willingly poured all of her own essence into his body; in the end, Caiyun Xianzi died in Jiang Taixu's arms, and Jiang Taixu's hair turned white overnight because of it.

This kind of love spanning four thousand years was exceptionally moving.
