Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse-Chapter 191 - 111: The Disappearance of Eastern Celestial City, Yin Spirit Enters Celestial Left Alliance Sub-Branch

If every move he made could be calculated, even just roughly, there would be far too many things he couldn't do in the future.

He wanted to stay quietly at Deadman Peak and inevitably help solve some issues in secret within his capabilities.

Or help some people.

If he encountered a situation more severe than Shan Yue Ru's, where not saving someone would result in their death, should he save them or not? Considering his own interests, naturally not saving them would be best, but what if that person was Mu Canglong?

Or Ye Chen?

Or perhaps Great Elder Dongfang Tiancheng.

Still not save them?

If he didn't save the former, could he still call himself human?

If he didn't save the latter, he'd basically have no place at Deadman Peak.

So the ultimate solution was to understand the Life Plate, to find a way to resolve the troubles it brings.

Concealing his aura and changing his appearance, after arriving at All-Knowing Tower, Wen Jiu went directly to purchase information about the Life Plate.

Unexpectedly, the price was not high, only three hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones. It wasn't worth thousands, or even more, as Wen Jiu had expected.

Quite clearly.

There seemed to be no shortage of people who knew about the Life Plate.

However, the amount of information given by All-Knowing Tower was very limited.

Indeed.

You get what you pay for.

Although it was just a few short sentences, it contained what Wen Jiu wanted to know.

The Life Plate.

A type of Heterodox Divination Skill.

It can predict known people and things through the expenditure of lifespan with the Life Plate, calculate the position of a person, the omen after departure, or even the location of treasured heavenly materials and earthly treasures, etc. The more extraordinary the subject, the greater the test on the cultivator's proficiency in the Life Plate and cultivation, and correspondingly, the greater the lifespan consumed by the diviner.

"Known."

Wen Jiu noticed these two words.

In other words, does it mean that if a person is unknown or their identity is unknown, they can't be divined with the Life Plate?

Wen Jiu tried inquiring at All-Knowing Tower and received a one-word response — Yes!

"Fortunately, this Life Plate isn't omnipotent, and since it consumes lifespan, it means they wouldn't dare calculate each one individually." Wen Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, although he actually didn't fully trust the information provided by All-Knowing Tower.

Because any information has its barriers. The information you know might be correct in your circle or stage, but once you step out of that circle or stage, it might be wrong.

So Wen Jiu felt he should remain cautious, avoid letting any fame spread as much as possible.

He had already obtained the Yinzhou Heterodox Record, and he couldn't think of anything he needed at Deadman Peak currently, so there was no rush to showcase his abilities. As long as he didn't display his abilities, no one would pay attention to him.

That Yin Yang Dust definitely wouldn't waste their lifespan divining him over some matters. After all, Yin Yang Dust is merely a Qi Refining Cultivator.

With only about a hundred years of lifespan at most.

Even if lifespan is extended.

It won't extend much.

After leaving All-Knowing Tower, Wen Jiu didn't immediately return; instead, he went in the opposite direction down Deadman Peak and then used Blood Corpse Escape in a secluded alley to return to his residence.

"There are so many people, so many geniuses at Deadman Peak, surely Yin Yang Dust won't expend lifespan to investigate me."

After speaking.

Wen Jiu burned the clothes he had worn previously and then used a Cleaning Talisman to remove any traces of burning from his room.

...

In the following days, an undercurrent continued to flow in the Cultivation Realm at Deadman Peak.

No further news came from Gu Daoist, and there was no movement from Ping Mountain, but everyone at Deadman Peak was talking about the affair with Cloud Mist Peak, guessing whether war would break out again with Cloud Mist Peak, filling the people with unease.

The news of Li Mu being captured did not spread in Deadman Peak, evidently due to intentional secrecy from the Peak Elders.

Unexpectedly for Wen Jiu, his usually hot-tempered master had remained silent these past few days.

Meanwhile, at the Celestial Left Alliance Sub-Branch in Cloud Mist Peak, Li Mu was pierced through his hands and feet by four black iron chains, hanging high like tanned skins in common homes, with venomous pythons below him, staring at Ye Chen with greedy green eyes.

Besides that, there were three others hung in the same manner, but the Celestial Left Alliance hadn't tortured them.

In front of the group hovered a person controlling a flying object, an old man with a scarred face and no right arm. Although he lacked a right arm, his right shoulder occasionally manifested a vicious green ghost arm.

At this moment, he stared coldly at Li Mu with gray eyes, while Li Mu squeezed out a smile tinged with blood looking at him.

This person was the current Ming Character Lineage Leader. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

He was once the leader of the Heterodox Lineage at Deadman Peak.

Liu Qianling!

"This arm of mine, it was slashed off by your master's axe, making me neither man nor ghost now." Liu Qianling spoke coldly, then sneered with malice, "Does your master have the guts to, like that old bastard Dongfang, charge into Cloud Mist Peak territory to kill in our Celestial Left Alliance Sub-Branch?"

"One day, Master's Thousand-Pound Tyrant Axe will kill you." Li Mu laughed fearlessly, and his laughter grew louder and louder.

This infuriated Liu Qianling, who had managed to stay calm, and he raised his hand, sending a wave of ghostly energy into Li Mu's body, causing him to scream in agony as if subjected to excruciating torture.

"You're just like your master, ignorant of the heights of heaven and earth... Don't worry, old man won't kill you, I'm waiting for your master to save you." Liu Qianling said coldly, a mix of anger and anticipation flashing across his face.

He knew Dongfang Tiancheng definitely wouldn't let Ye Chen come.

But he also knew, Ye Chen would definitely come!

Dongfang Tiancheng and the others would worry about directly declaring war on Cloud Mist Peak, reigniting hostilities, hence they wouldn't dare assault the Cultivation Realm of Cloud Mist Peak, but Ye Chen, that rough fellow, would, because he understood Ye Chen far too well after thirty years as a close friend.
