Chapter 145 Ah Yin's Darkest Hour
The location of Holy Soul Village is roughly southwest of Notting City.
It's only a half-day walk from Nottingham.
After flying over Notting City, Ye Qifeng and Gui Mei headed directly towards Holy Soul Village.
The entire journey took less than an hour, and the two arrived near Holy Soul Village.
According to the blind Douluo Su Yuntao, there is a range of rolling mountains behind Holy Soul Village.
That mountain range is rarely visited by people, and its peaks soar into the clouds.
Deep within the mountains lies a magnificent waterfall.
Because it is located deep in the mountains, the waterfall is almost never seen by anyone, and only local herb gatherers who often go into the mountains to collect herbs know a little about it.
Su Yuntao learned about it by chance from an old herb gatherer near Shenghun Village.
Follow the map's instructions.
The ghost, carrying Night Seven Wind, continued to fly deeper into the mountains.
As the terrain of the mountains increases.
The ghostly flight altitude also began to rise steadily.
Due to the influence of the mountainous terrain and air currents, the ghost's flight speed is not fast.
It took a full half hour to climb over one mountain after another before finally finding the waterfall by following a stream.
"Found it!"
Looking at the waterfall with a drop of over a hundred meters, where the water crashes into the deep pool and creates a deafening roar, Ye Qifeng felt overjoyed.
He directed the ghost to fly to the bottom of the waterfall and land on a boulder by the pool.
Looking up, a waterfall about twenty meters wide, like a silver ribbon, hangs down from the clouds and clings to the rock wall of the valley.
The water cascaded down rapidly, crashing into the pool and splashing up countless droplets. Waves of water vapor rushed towards us with the air currents, bringing a refreshing and moist feeling.
Above the waterfall, sunlight shines down and mingles with the mist rising from the pool above, refracting to create a seven-colored rainbow.
It looks absolutely stunning, a flawless and beautiful sight.
"The scenery here is quite nice."
A ghostly, low, hoarse sigh came from the side, clearly also awestruck by the sight of the waterfall.
Ye Qifeng shook his head, snapping out of his reverie at the beautiful view of the waterfall.
He's here to do serious business, not to admire the scenery.
Turning to look at the ghost, he bowed slightly and said:
"Next, I'm afraid we'll have to trouble Elder Gui again."
The ghostly, muffled voice replied:
"Your Highness, just give the order. There's no need to be so polite with me."
Ye Qifeng nodded, no longer standing on ceremony, pointed to the waterfall hanging on the cliff face in the valley, and said softly:
"Elder Trouble, part the water flow of that waterfall to reveal the stone wall behind it."
"no problem."
The ghostly, muffled voice responded.
He was somewhat puzzled by the Holy Son's request, but at this point, he no longer wanted to delve into it.
He had seen things very clearly along the way.
Everything His Highness does may seem inexplicable and unreliable, but it actually contains profound meaning.
Perhaps in a little while, it might bring me a pleasant surprise; the ghost also had a hint of anticipation for this.
Therefore, he did as His Highness instructed.
Ghostly figure stepped forward and walked up to Ye Qifeng.
The Martial Soul Ghost instantly possessed him, and a surge of immense soul power erupted from his black robe.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the inky black soul power surged out of his body and flowed upstream from the bottom of the waterfall.
The water flow split off to both sides in an instant, revealing the rocky cliffs behind it.
After the water flow has completely separated.
"Elder Ghost, come with me."
Ye Qifeng uttered a single sentence before leaping into the air.
Using each protrusion on the rock face for leverage, he finally leaped onto a protruding rock in the center of the rock face.
The ghosts followed closely behind, constantly activating their soul power to keep the water flowing apart, preventing it from closing.
At the same time, he was filled with doubt, wondering what the Holy Son intended to do after leaping onto the waterfall's rock face.
Standing on the protruding rocks.
Ye Qifeng's pure black eyes scanned the surroundings again and again.
Finally, we found a place that stood out from the surrounding rock walls.
Ye Qifeng smiled faintly and pressed down with his hand.
A piercing sound of a stone mill suddenly rang in my ears.
Look in the direction of the sound.
Beside the protruding rock, a rock suddenly moved on its own, revealing a dark cave.
"This is it!"
Ye Qifeng was overjoyed and slipped inside in a flash.
"There's a stone gate hidden behind the waterfall?"
"Behind the stone gate, there's actually a cave?"
"How did His Highness know that?"
The ghost stared in disbelief at everything that had suddenly appeared, its mind filled with a jumble of questions.
Staring blankly at the dark cave, the ghost remained stunned for a long time.
He withdrew his soul power, his figure flickered, and he followed.
Without the separating effect of the ghostly soul power, the water from the waterfall behind them instantly converged, covering the stone wall again and cascading down with a thunderous roar.
Inside the cave.
Because of the lack of sunlight.
It was pitch black inside, you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
At the same time, a constant stream of damp air hits you.
At this moment, Ye Qifeng casually wiped his hand on the amethyst crystal ring.
He pulled out a fluorescent gemstone, and its shimmering white light instantly illuminated the cave.
First, there is a long corridor leading straight inside.
The ghost reached out and touched the stone wall of the passageway, discovering that it was covered with traces of human carving, and said:
"This cave appears to be man-made, not naturally formed."
"Um."
Ye Qifeng nodded, understanding that this cave must have been personally built by Tang Hao.
The two continued walking inside.
After traversing the long stone path, you arrive at the end, where there is a stone chamber of about ten square meters.
At the entrance to the stone chamber, there was a unique soul power seal.
This kind of soul power seal can only be cast by a Title Douluo, and it has no other use except for sensing and reminder.
Therefore, it does not provide any protection, and it is even less likely to prevent others from intruding.
The soul power seal is actually very fragile; it will shatter immediately if anyone touches it.
Of course, the person who set up the seal will also sense it immediately.
Ye Qifeng chuckled, completely disregarding the existence of the soul power seal, and directly shattered the soul power seal, breaking through it.
Even if Tang Hao sensed it, so what?
Could Tang Hao abandon his precious son Tang San, disregard Tang San's safety, and run back to stop him?
Totally impossible!
In Tang Hao's heart, his precious son was far more important than Ah Yin.
Ghostly watched Ye Qifeng's actions without offering any advice. His Highness the Holy Son had his own ideas, and he would simply follow along.
Upon entering the stone chamber, it was completely empty, devoid of any furnishings.
In the center of the stone chamber was only a small mound of earth and a small square wooden box.
On the mound, a slender blue silver grass grew, swaying gently in the faint airflow within the cave.
It's hard to see the fine golden veins on the leaves unless you look closely.
It's easy to mistake it for an ordinary blue silver grass.
Ye Qifeng watched the Blue Silver Grass waving its branches and leaves unconsciously and sighed silently.
Is this the Blue Silver Emperor, Ah Yin?
Tang Hao planted it in a dark, sunless cave, where it never received the nourishment of sunlight.
If it weren't for the Blue Silver Emperor's tenacious vitality, which allows it to replenish itself by absorbing nutrients from the earth, it wouldn't be able to sustain itself.
They probably died a violent death long ago, right?
However, being planted inside a stone chamber surrounded by rocks, the nutrients it can absorb are extremely limited.
At this time, the growth of the Blue Silver Emperor was extremely unhealthy, appearing very weak and withered, and the movement of its branches and leaves also seemed listless.
Clearly, Tang Hao himself was extremely conflicted.
He wanted Ah Yin to live, but he also didn't want her to come back to life completely, otherwise he was afraid he wouldn't have the courage to face Ah Yin again.
That's why they chose to plant Ah Yin in this dark and sunless cave, leaving her half-dead.
You're really something, Tang Hao.
How could they treat Ah Yin, who loves you so deeply, like this?
Even if Ah Yin is a soul beast, you deceived her feelings.
But you also received her sacrifice, and obtained her 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone.
Shouldn't you treat Gintoki a little better?
Shouldn't the seeds she left behind be planted in a sunny place?
How could I bear to do that?
Haha, they're truly worse than animals.
