Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 113 Obtaining Information
Yin stones are some gray-black crystals.
They are specialties of the ghost realm.
Because the Yin energy here is too strong, a small amount of soil or rocks that are contaminated for a long time will change in nature and become Yin stones that can store Yin energy.
The Yin energy contained in this Yin stone is relatively pure and can be directly absorbed by ghosts to increase the strength of the soul.
Therefore, in the ghost realm, Yin Stone is the trading currency that replaced silver and money.
However, Yin energy is harmful rather than beneficial to living beings.
Living things need a balance of yin and yang. Simply absorbing yin energy will cause an imbalance of yin and yang in the body, leading to eventual death.
Therefore, Yin Stone is more valuable than gold to ghosts, but to living people, it is just like a stone on the roadside, or even a poisonous stone.
To a certain extent, the reason why King Qin asked Lin Qianxing to mine the Yinshi vein was because the Yinshi was useless to Lin Qianxing, so he was so confident in handing this important task to him.
This is also the reason why Hou Fu is so enthusiastic about Lin Qianxing.
This is a lucrative job. There will always be some loss in the mined Yin Stones. As long as Lin Qianxing puts a little thought into it, he can get a lot of Yin Stones from it.
The Yin Stone is of little use to Lin Qianxing, so Hou Fu has an opportunity to take advantage of this.
For this reason, Hou Fu did not actually conduct an in-depth investigation into Lin Qianxing's situation.
If Lin Qianxing knew about these things, he would definitely feel that the [Shunxin Mantra] is indeed a top-notch spell. This series of low-probability events happened at the right time and was reasonable and logical, without any far-fetchedness at all. Even Hou Fu himself might not feel that he was affected by Lin Qianxing's fortune.
This is the mystery of luck . It cannot be touched or seen, but it affects the things around you all the time.
Back to the topic, in the following period of time, Lin Qianxing began to recruit workers in Qinwang City and started to mine the Yinshi ore veins.
When the ghosts in Qinwang City learned that the job was to mine Yin Stone, they were so excited that they were willing to help collect Yin Stone even without any salary.
Lin Qianxing didn't understand the reason until Hou Fu explained it to him. Then he realized that the Yinshi vein is equivalent to a natural place where Yin gathers. Even if you do nothing in it, your soul can become more condensed.
In the ghost realm, as immortal ghosts, they still have their own desires. The most direct one is to become the class that controls power, which requires even more powerful strength.
Ordinary ghosts, even those that are hundreds of years old, are at a controlled level. Once there is a need for a battle, they will be pulled out to fight with the ghosts in other cities.
It’s okay if you survive, but if you die, it would be a waste.
Therefore, the ghost realm is not the paradise where one can live eternal life and happiness as imagined.
Compared with living people, the hierarchy of ghosts is quite strict.
Ordinary wandering ghosts do not exist in the ghost realm.
The lowest level are evil ghosts that have been there for decades, then there are the evil ghosts that have been there for a hundred years, above that are the ghost generals, and finally the twelve ghost kings and the ghost emperor.
Only by becoming a ghost general can you have the opportunity to control your own destiny.
However, it is not easy for a ghost general to appear, so to this day, there are only about three thousand ghost generals in the entire ghost realm.
Some people here must be wondering, since there are dead ghosts and they are lost year after year, why are there still so many ghosts in the ghost world?
Here we have to mention another evil deed in the ghost realm.
Evil ghosts massacre the city!
When the number of ghosts in the ghost realm becomes scarce, the evil ghosts of Jiaoshan will selectively come to the world of the living, choose a town to massacre, and use the souls of the living people there to replenish the souls of the living people and enter the ghost realm to become the ghost people there.
This is also the reason why the Jiaoshan ghost realm is so disgusting to the monks in the world.
If they were just living in a corner, the monks wouldn't hate them to the core, but they come out to kill every once in a while, and it almost becomes a natural disaster.
How can one not feel disgusted and want to destroy it?
It seems that in the memory inherited by Lin Qianxing, he himself was an orphan who survived the massacre of the city by the evil spirit of Jiaoshan.
Even many cultivators in the spiritual world have suffered from the evil spirit of Jiaoshan.
At this time, after Lin Qianxing gathered enough ghosts, he took them to the Yinshi mine to mine Yinshi.
On the other hand, Zhong Ying was also assigned a job.
Her current job is procurement, which means going to the world of the living to bring supplies to the ghost realm.
That’s right, the ghost realm also needs to obtain .
The ghost realm does not have many supplies in the human world, but is in demand, so the ghosts in the ghost realm can only go to the human world and obtain them through certain channels.
However, there are many ghosts responsible for procurement, and most of them are hundred-year-old evil ghosts, so Zhong Ying’s task is not difficult.
Moreover, compared to the identity of a ghost, it is easier for Zhong Ying to travel in the world of the living. In addition, he can get help from the sect, so he can easily purchase the necessary supplies and his work is quite leisurely.
In this way, the two of them managed to gain a foothold in the ghost realm.
However, Lin Qianxing doesn't just want to gain a foothold, what he wants is to achieve something and kill more ghost generals.
A few days later, Lin Qianxing became acquainted with Hou Fu by bribing him with mining. Hou Fu brought Lin Qianxing to a fireworks place in Qinwang City and said, "Brother Yuan, I'm going to open your eyes today."
"This, isn't good. What about my junior sister..." Lin Qianxing said hesitantly.
"Don't worry, she has gone out to purchase things and won't know about it," said Hou Fu.
"Okay then!" Lin Qianxing nodded.
Then Lin Qianxing entered under the guidance of the veteran Hou Fu.
Hou Fu was obviously a familiar customer. After entering, he quickly embraced Lin Qianxing, who seemed a little reserved, and said, "Brother, although they are ghosts, this place is not much different from the world of the living. Ghost bodies are illusory, but they can be condensed into various forms. There are even more ways to play than in the world of the living. Moreover, the communication between souls goes straight into the spirit, which is definitely more exaggerated than the pleasure of the flesh."
"Really? But I'm a stranger, that's not good, right?" Lin Qianxing said.
"It's okay, it won't damage much of your Yang energy, just give it a try!" Hou Fu said.
As he spoke, Hou Fu pushed a female ghost to Lin Qianxing's side.
However, as soon as the female ghost approached Lin Qianxing, she was so scared that she took several steps back.
Lin Qianxing also practiced martial arts, and his blood and energy were surging. His abundant yang energy was like a furnace to these ghosts. If they came into contact with him, they would be seeking their own death.
"It seems I am not worthy of this." Lin Qianxing sighed.
"What a bummer, what a bummer!" Seeing this, Hou Fu couldn't enjoy it alone anymore, so he pushed the female ghost beside him away and said to Lin Qianxing, "It doesn't matter. Although we can't enjoy the beauty, we can still enjoy the food. Let's go to the private room and have a drink!"
"Then I'll leave it to you, brother." Lin Qianxing said politely.
Afterwards, Hou Fu took Lin Qianxing to the private room and sat down.
Lin Qianxing sat on the cold chair and drank the slightly gray wine in the glass in one gulp. The next moment, a chill rushed to the top of his head and then spread throughout his body, giving him the same stimulation as falling into an ice cave in the hottest days of June.
"How is it?" Hou Fu asked.
"It's really powerful." Lin Qianxing nodded.
As he spoke, Lin Qianxing poured himself another glass.
"Although this Soul-Intoxicating Wine tastes good, you are a stranger after all, so remember not to drink too much." Hou Fu said with a smile.
"I know my limits. It's a rare opportunity for me to come here with Brother Hou today. It would be terrible if I don't drink to my heart's content." Lin Qianxing said, raising his glass.
"Okay! Brother Yuan, you are very generous. Let's do it!" Hou Fu nodded.
In this way, the two sides quickly drank three rounds of drinks.
Lin Qianxing began to ask Hou Fu about the ghost realm in a roundabout way.
"Brother Hou, how many ghosts are there in our Qinwang City? I see the streets are deserted. Are there ghosts living in so many buildings?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"We have more than six million ghost people in Qinwang City, what do you think?" Hou Fu said.
"So many?" Lin Qianxing asked in surprise.
"Not too many. Among the twelve royal cities in the ghost realm, the number of ghosts in our Qinwang City is relatively small. The ones with more, such as Haowang City, Zhouwang City, and Guowang City, all have tens of millions of ghosts. That 's really a lot." Hou Fu replied.
Hearing the sound, Lin Qianxing couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling.
All the cultivators in the mortal world probably add up to only a few hundred thousand people. In this ghost realm, any royal city has millions of ghost people, and they are all at least at the level of evil ghosts.
The strength of both sides cannot be said to be not on the same level, there is absolutely no comparison! !
But then again, there are only a few million Yin gods in the underworld, so why can it be compared with the ghost realm?
Is it because there are more elites?
One is worth a hundred?
"By the way, I've always heard you talk about the Twelve Ghost Kings. Who are they?" Lin Qianxing said again.
"You must remember these things when you live in the Ghost Kingdom. The twelve Ghost Kings are King Qin, King Gong, King Hua, King Ren, King Jie, King Jia, King Kui, King Jin, King Ding, King Hao, King Zhou, and King Guo." Hou Fu talked eloquently, saying, "The twelve princes are all powerful people who followed the Ghost Emperor from the beginning. The twelve cities in the Ghost Realm represent the scope of their rule in the Ghost Realm."
“I didn’t expect the Ghost Country to be so powerful. Then I don’t have to worry about being hunted down by my master !!” Lin Qianxing nodded and pretended to be relieved.
"That's right. In the Jiaoshan Ghost Kingdom, any ghost town has the ability to sweep the world of the living. You can rest assured, Brother Yuan." Hou Fu said proudly.
Hearing this, Lin Qianxing said inconspicuously: "Brother Hou, I am a little confused. Since our Jiaoshan Ghost Realm is so powerful, why don't we just occupy the Yang World and rule the world?"
Hou Fu was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "This is a long story."
"Is it because of the underworld?" Lin Qianxing asked.
Hou Fu glanced at Lin Qianxing, nodded and said, "Indeed!"
"I heard that there are only a few million ghost gods in the underworld. How can it be compared with our ghost realm?" Lin Qianxing asked puzzledly.
"The millions of Yin Gods are not a big deal, but the three Yama Lords are important." Hou Fu shook his head and said, "The three Yama Lords in the underworld are much stronger than the Ghost King. Perhaps only His Majesty the Ghost Emperor has the strength to contend with them!!!"
