Chapter 1479: The Mystery of the Divine Thunder

"So it concerns the master's important affairs; no wonder their mind changed. However, this person is specifically marked for death by the Old Blood Fiend. Master, you'll need to give some instructions, won't you? That Old Blood Fiend is hardly a magnanimous sort." Bloodwing chuckled.

"Yes, I know how to handle this matter. However, before I clarify things with young Han, you must keep a close watch on him. Don't let him find an opportunity to slip away, or I'll have to go through a lot of trouble again," Mu Qing instructed. "Yes, I will keep him under watch during this time," Blood Poison respectfully replied. Mu Qing nodded with satisfaction and then waved her hand. Blood Poison, understanding the implication, promptly exited the hall. The shadowy woman, after a brief moment of thought within the hazy black light, suddenly slapped the large golden flower beneath her with one hand.

The colossal flower trembled slightly and then suddenly expelled a gleaming golden round mirror from its core. Its design was ancient, with faint runes flickering across its surface.

Mu Qing opened her mouth and exhaled a puff of green gas.

Instantly, the golden light flickered, and the green gas mysteriously vanished into the mirror.

The mirror's surface pulsed with a spiritual glow, and a layer of golden mist emerged.

After a long moment, a wooden, emotionless male voice emanated from the golden mist:

"Fellow Daoist Mu, why have you sought me?"

Hearing the voice, Mu Qing smiled and replied,

"Brother Six-Legs! How is your collection of Yin energy progressing? Will that ghost general be able to condense enough Yin-armored Dark Ghosts before our agreed-upon date?"

"I have collected all the pure Yin energy from the lower levels. Although the Yin energy on the first level is the thinnest, I can still gather a substantial amount if I spend more time, enough for the Ghost Granny to condense eight thousand Dark Ghosts. Fellow Daoist Mu, why are you suddenly asking me about this?" the man stated unemotionally after a moment of silence.

"According to our plan, these eight thousand Dark Ghosts and the ten thousand puppets from the Blood Earth are merely cannon fodder, intended to break through the obstruction of the Underworld River's spirits. However, to ultimately break through the Underworld River realm's barrier, we must devise another strategy. The methods we initially prepared are not entirely secure," Mu Qing said after a slight pause, not directly answering. "What? Has Fellow Daoist Mu found another good way to break the barrier?" The man reacted swiftly, his voice changing slightly. "Hehe, Brother Six-Legs truly knows me well. I have indeed just made a new discovery and wanted to discuss it with you first," the woman chuckled softly. "A discovery? Do tell," the man's voice returned to its unruffled calm.

"Today, I found someone capable of wielding the Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion. Although the Underworld River barrier is a restriction primarily composed of Yin energy, the most troublesome aspect is undoubtedly the demonic energy contained within it. This demonic energy is exceptionally pure, and our original methods were not entirely reliable. However, with the Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion, this demonic energy will be nothing to fear," the woman said, her demeanor turning serious.

"The Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion is indeed highly effective against demons and evil. However, in ancient times, when the Evil Dragon clan dominated the Spirit Realm, they almost completely eradicated all Golden Thunder Bamboo, and all beings who cultivated or possessed Golden Thunder Bamboo treasures were annihilated. How could someone capable of wielding the Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion appear now? You haven't misjudged, have you?" the man said slowly, sounding somewhat disbelieving. "You can rest assured about that; what that person displayed was indeed the Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion. I still possess that much discernment.

The only slight issue is that this person doesn't seem to know the true method for wielding the Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion. They merely treat it as an ordinary lightning ability, and its power can't even be unleashed to one or two tenths of its potential."

Mu Qing suddenly let out a cold laugh.

"Oh, in that case, it is possible. This person likely acquired some remnant Golden Thunder Bamboo by chance and, through that serendipity, cultivated this divine ability," the man called Six-Legs stated calmly.

"Hehe, I thought the same. Otherwise, if this person could fully unleash the power of the Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion, even you and I would have to be wary. However, encountering such an individual at this time and place is a tremendous stroke of luck for us. It seems fate has decreed that our grand endeavor will succeed," Mu Qing smiled sweetly.

"As long as this person truly possesses the Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion, they will naturally be a great asset to us. But since you've suddenly brought this to my attention, there must be some trouble involved, right?" the man unexpectedly asked.

"Brother Six-Legs, you see clearly! Actually, I wasn't the first to learn about this person. He's the one that Old Blood Fiend monster explicitly instructed me to kill, and he wanted me to capture his soul and deliver it to him. I suspect it's likely related to that Ghost Granny as well," Mu Qing said with a slight smile. "I see. Fellow Daoist Mu wishes to personally control this individual and wants me to mediate this matter, correct?" The man instantly grasped Mu Qing's intention.

"That is precisely my intention. Brother Six-Legs should know very well that I am originally a wood spirit condensed form, and among the four of us, no one can compare to my understanding of Golden Thunder Bamboo. Only by personally guiding that person can they master the full power of the Divine Lightning of Evil Repulsion as quickly as possible, allowing it to be useful when we launch our plan," Mu Qing said with a charming laugh, seemingly not concealing her true intention. "Hmm, what you say has merit. However, this matter is significant. The few of us must discuss it face-to-face, and the three of us must also personally meet this individual," the man finally replied after pondering for a long time.

"That is certainly acceptable. Let's gather at my residence in half a month. Brother Six-Legs, please personally inform the Ghost Granny and Blood Earth. At that time, I will personally await the arrival of the three fellow Daoists at the Wood Immortal Palace," Mu Qing said with a smile. "Very well, it's settled then," the man agreed with extreme crispness.

Immediately, the golden mist on the golden mirror retracted, and no further sound was heard. The man called Six-Legs had cut off the connection without another word.

"Hmph, it's exactly as I predicted. That fellow Six-Legs doesn't care whose hands this person ends up in. Well, I suppose so; he's the only one who doesn't fear the Divine Lightning of Shattered Stone, so it's irrelevant to him. But the other two will likely not give up so easily."
