Chapter 488 -322 Another Spiritual Artifact, Plague Elder

Lu Qing stepped cautiously toward the spot where the Plague Gourd had fallen.

At this moment, the Plague Gourd lay quietly half-buried in the pit it had created.

No longer did any Grey Energy rise from it, exposing its dull grey essence.

But Lu Qing did not approach too closely, maintaining a safe distance.

Within his sight, the Plague Gourd was emitting a faint purple Superpower Light.

[Plague Gourd: An Evil Path Magical Treasure, a damaged Low Grade Spiritual Artifact.]

[The Lifebound Magical Treasure of the ancient times strong Plague Elder of the Evil Path.]

[Contains Plague Qi, able to erode one’s Divine Soul and physique, spread plagues, extremely malevolent.]

[This Magical Treasure has suffered heavy damage, its spiritual nature and power greatly reduced, and has not recovered to date.]

[As the Ancient Immortal Cultivation Era came to a close, to avoid the Heavenly Human Five Decays Tribulation, the Plague Elder abandoned his body, entered his Lifebound Magical Treasure, possessed the Artifact Spirit, and continued his wretched existence.]

…

A strange color flashed in Lu Qing’s eyes.

The words that appeared on the Plague Gourd contained a wealth of information.

First was the mention of the Heavenly Human Five Decays Tribulation; this was the first time Lu Qing had seen this term.

It seemed that the end of the Cultivation Era was not as simple as a mere decline of Spiritual Energy, but also involved something far more terrifying that led to the disappearance of Cultivators and the loss of their legacies.

Next was the so-called Plague Elder.

Abandoning his body, possessing the Artifact Spirit…

So, could it be that the Plague Elder still resided within the gourd?

Lu Qing observed the Plague Gourd quietly.

A long while passed, yet there was no sign of activity.

It seemed as if after the Qi Family’s fourth brother died and lost his control, it too had become an inanimate object.

However, Lu Qing naturally would not be so rash.

The Qi Family’s fourth brother was at the Great Success of Innate Realm and, in theory, should not have the ability to freely control a Magical Treasure like a Spiritual Artifact.

Even with Lu Qing’s current strength, it was extremely challenging to harness a fraction of the Qiankun Qi Bag’s power.

He simply could not believe there was no trickery at play.

Now that the Plague Gourd was playing dead, Lu Qing certainly was not going to be fooled so easily.

He thought for a moment, then suddenly a cloth bag appeared in his hand, and with a thought, the bag swelled suddenly, engulfing the gourd that was half the height of a man.

At the instant the cloth bag enlarged, an unbelievable disturbance burst from within the gourd: “Qiankun Qi Bag! How is this possible, wait…”

But before the disturbance could finish speaking, the Qiankun Qi Bag had already swallowed the Plague Gourd, cutting off its words.

After engulfing the Plague Gourd, the Qiankun Qi Bag shrank back to the size of a palm, settling into Lu Qing’s hand.

A cold smile crept on his face, “Now you want to negotiate? Too late.”

He had known that this Plague ghost certainly had not perished.

Otherwise, with just the Qi Family’s fourth brother’s cultivation, even with a damaged Plague Gourd, it would not have been manipulated so skillfully.

There must be another presence secretly helping him.

He even suspected that the Qi Family’s fourth brother had never refined the Plague Gourd at all and that everything was just the Plague spirit inside the gourd deceiving him.

Facing such a cunning old ghost that had survived tens of thousands of years, Lu Qing was naturally unwilling to hear more from him.

Only by completely controlling it first, would he feel at ease.

As for how to deal with the old ghost afterward, that was just a matter of his will.

After securing the Qiankun Qi Bag, Lu Qing returned to the village.

The Ji Family Master and others greeted him with reverent gazes.

Having witnessed Lu Qing’s many wondrous methods, and the terrifying power released by that arrow just before,

The Ji Family Master and the others finally realized why the Azure Dragon City Lord had said that even the Holy Mountain was now reluctant to provoke this young man lightly.

Because his strength was already beyond the reach of the Innate Realm, he belonged to an entirely different level of existence.

“Has the Qi Family’s fourth brother died?” asked the Ji Family Master cautiously.

“Dead,” nodded Lu Qing.

The Ji Family Master let out a sigh of relief.

Although he had seen Qi Changfeng explode into dust under Lu Qing’s arrow,

The various methods employed by Qi Changfeng earlier were just too bizarre.

So until he had confirmation from Lu Qing, he really couldn’t be sure the man was indeed dead.

“By the way, Young Master Lu, how is the child now?”

“I’ve removed the Poisonous Fog mark from the body of the Third Young Master Ji. His body is no longer affected, and with some rest, he should fully recover.

He’s already asleep, and if you’re worried, Elder, you can go check on him.”

With a gentle wave of his hand, Lu Qing lifted the Array Formation Light Screen that surrounded Third Young Master Ji.

Seeing this, the reverence in the Ji Family Master’s heart deepened, and after bowing respectfully to Lu Qing, he went to check on his son.

Lu Qing then turned to the elder doctor, “Master, how is your health?”

Completely recovered, the elder doctor said with a smile, “I’m fine now, with the aid of your Spirit Talisman, that Grey Energy can’t do much to me.”

“Then, it seems everything here is resolved; Master, shall we continue our journey?”

“That sounds good,” agreed the elder doctor, without objection.

“Young Master Lu, Elder Chen, are you leaving?”

The Ji Family Master, having just checked on his younger son, was about to come over to thank them when he overheard the conversation, causing him to start.

“Indeed, Ji Family Master, before our arrival, the villagers have been protecting your son.

Especially the young girl who stayed by his side, she has been taking care of him without stepping away.

Please make sure they are not mistreated, Ji Family Master.”

The Ji Family Master’s expression became solemn at these words, “Of course, how could I, Ji, be such an ungrateful person.”
