Chapter 1104 The Ancient Secret
The wisdom accumulated throughout the millennia of the Four Stars Sect's existence was tremendous and diverse . The number of top-class arsenals amounted to a few thousand, and there were also countless numbers of pill factories, weapon stockpiles, and resources . This was not counting those from the branches, divisions, and bases in different domains . All in all, there were probably hundreds of thousands of them . This was the number of assets owned by a super sect .
Even though Spokesperson Li could reallocate resources belonging to the headquarters of the Human Race and he had the elites assigned by the Heaven Wasteland Empire to assist him, the entire process of arranging, allocating, and reorganizing the Four Stars Sect's resources was a lengthy process . Furthermore, he would have to process its huge number of disciples who had surrendered and come up with a plan to fill the huge gaping hole left by the demise of the sect .
The monastery of the Four Stars Sect was directly annexed by the Human Race headquarters .
A new monastery of the sect was set up at another prime location within the Four Stars Domain . Everything had to be rebuilt from the ground up, and basically, it was impossible for the sect to regain its past glory if no amazing talent was produced from its ranks in the future .
Before Ye Qingyu went into seclusion, he told Spokesperson Li not to look for him if there were any matters pertaining to the Four Stars Sect left unresolved . As such, for the next six months, Ye Qingyu remained in isolation within [Guanlan Mountain Manor] .
Six months later—
The crops and flowers that Ye Qingyu had planted in the manor had already grown and bloomed . A huge variety of fresh flowers could be seen in the flowerbeds, and the pond was filled with clear, fresh water and healthy looking fish . Many damaged yards, halls, and walls had already been completely restored .
The entire manor looked brand new .
Ye Qingyu had felt a bone-chilling wind blow through the main hall many times . It carried a strange aura and a concealed, chilly power . As it blew through the main hall, even with his immense power, Ye Qingyu could feel his hairs stand on end and his body tremble .
A deathly air pervaded the entire [Guanlan Mountain Manor] when the breeze blew, as if a portal to the Underworld had just been opened .
Perhaps, this is the reason for the disappearance of the anonymous Quasi-emperor and the eight great prodigies going insane?
Ye Qingyu was alarmed .
He had chosen to isolate himself in [Guanlan Mountain Manor] for two reasons . First, it was located in a quiet and secluded spot, and second, he wanted to try uncovering the mystery of the manor . After all, the evil aura that he had first sensed in the manor seemed similar to that of the forces of darkness . As such, he wanted to find out the reason behind the strange presence in [Guanlan Mountain Manor] before he traveled to the Dark Realm and to make sure that he did not leave any potentially dangerous factor behind . If the force of darkness was triggered, the entire Heaven Connect City would be engulfed in danger .
Day after day, time passed .
Ye Qingyu went about his work quietly . At the same time, he observed the frequency and timing of the wind that kept blowing through the main hall of the manor .
Gradually, he began to understand how it worked .
Today—
The moon was dim and the winds were strong . It was quiet all around .
Ye Qingyu was sleeping soundly in the main hall . He opened his eyes suddenly and slowly got up .
The atmosphere in the main hall was extremely eerie .
A cloud of vapor appeared in the middle of the hall, and a ghostly fire circled around it .
"It's different now . . . Is it finally appearing?"
Ye Qingyu was not alarmed . Instead, he sat on the edge of his stone bed and observed silently . The mysterious breeze blew again, but it did not disperse this time . Evidently, something that had not happened before was going to happen tonight .
At the same time, he could sense a strange barrier that was containing him within the main hall of the manor . It was as if he had been cut off from the outside world, and it would be extremely hard to leave the hall now .
It had turned into a prison .
And he was the prisoner .
Also, an extremely icy and cold aura was circling in the air . He could sense a presence more terrifying than anything else he had ever encountered before, as if there were countless dark lords peeping at him from the darkness .
Ye Qingyu waited quietly .
He knew something was about to appear tonight .
Just as he expected, after about thirty minutes, a vague figure appeared in the cloud of mist in the middle of the main hall . It stumbled out of the vapor and he could roughly make out its distraught expression . It waved at Ye Qingyu, as if it were trying to tell him to flee as quickly as possible . . .
"It's him?"
Ye Qingyu recognized the figure with just one glance . He was one of the eight great prodigies that had gone insane after residing in [Guanlan Mountain Manor] . He was a prodigy of the Inugamis . Ye Qingyu had done some research and memorized the appearance and backgrounds of the eight before officially purchasing the manor .
In the legends of the eight prodigies, however, this Inugami prodigy should have gone insane, but did survive the ordeal . Why does he look like a spirit now, and how did he appear from the mist? Also, he seems to be able to see me and warn me?
Ye Qingyu felt that it was very strange .
Very quickly, however, a terrifying and mysterious cold wind blew, dispersing the image of the Inugami prodigy .
The cloud of vapor seemed to have stopped moving .
The containment barrier around the main hall seemed to have grown more obvious .
It looked as though something terrible was about to happen .
"Leave . . . leave now . . . flee!"
A faint voice came from within the mist .
It sounded mournful and incredibly fearful .
It's the language of the Molos .
Ye Qingyu could tell .
There was a talent from the Molos among the eight prodigies who were driven insane .
Ye Qingyu got up slowly and released his divine sense . He sent out a sliver of it, probing carefully in the mist like a tentacle . He could sense that huge danger was contained within it .
"No, leave . . . Flee now . "
The voice of the Molo prodigy became clearer and sounded more urgent, even panicky . He tried to warn Ye Qingyu loudly that something incredibly terrible was about to happen .
The expression on Ye Qingyu's face changed .
