Chapter Summary
” Water Emissary replied before telling Li Qiye: “Sir, maybe you should take a look at the battlefield if you want more clues. The major ghost market could be divided into three sections - the market itself, Forest of Thoughts, and Heavenfall. The market was the main region where transactions took place between cultivators and ghosts.
Chapter 6071: The Bastard Left Me Here “But you do know about his past self?
” Li Qiye asked Water Emissary while glancing at Fog Emissary.
“I do feel a familiarity between us, were we acquaintances once?
” Fog Emissary asked.
“Of course not, you are you and I am just an underwater ghost.
” Water Emissary shook his head.
“I’m talking about my past self.
” Fog Emissary pursued the matter.
“Your past self or external matters had nothing to do with me.
” Water Emissary denied.
Fog Emissary didn’t buy it and gritted his teeth, thinking of a way to pry it out of him.
“Back to Old Pact, what happened next?
” Li Qiye wanted to know the process.
“No one was left alive, perhaps only the guide who led them here.
I do not know the details since I was hiding underwater.
Nevertheless, a monstrous weapon activated, and in my opinion, it was strong enough to kill an overlord.
” Water Emissary said with dread.
“Got it.
” Li Qiye found out that the progenitors used their ace card and said: “It was blocked successfully, the only reason why your market is still around.
” “Yes, so lucky.
” Water Emissary patted his chest before smiling brightly: “It’s nice to be alive, even for a ghost.
And the power was the reason why I said the ghost market wasn’t involved, it was just too much to handle.
” “How nice of you all.
” Li Qiye said: “What was the reason for establishing a battlefield here?
” “That’s not something I can answer, Sir.
” Water Emissary smiled and glanced over at Fog Emissary: “He has the most knowledge out of anyone in the market so if he doesn’t know...
” “I’m too new of a ghost to know about it.
” Fog Emissary responded.
“How did you become an emissary?
” Water Emissary asked.
Fog pondered carefully but couldn’t remember because it seemed he was an emissary at the start.
“There’s a core for each of you.
” Li Qiye said.
“That is correct, Sir.
” Water Emissary said: “We call this core a ghost sigil, an essential requirement for an emissary.
” “How did you get yours?
” Li Qiye asked.
“My ghost sigil?
Someone probably lost it and I picked it up by chance.
” Water Emissary smiled.
“Lost, discarded, or some other ways?
” Li Qiye stared at him and said.
“All the same.
” Water Emisary said: “Back then, I wanted to survive after that bastard threw me here, so I came up with a plan...
” “Which bastard?
” Li Qiye had a serious expression.
“Oh, it’s nothing.
” Water Emissary changed the topic: “How did you get your sigil?
” “I had it from the start.
” Fog Emissary answered.
“Oh, how interesting, a sigil right after transformation.
Not hard but not easy either, kekeke, perhaps you did something unsavory first to facilitate the change.
” Water Emissary said.
“Are you sure you’re not talking about yourself?
” Fog Emissary had met the guy before but this time, a sense of familiarity arose.
He couldn’t pinpoint anything in particular.
“People who’ve done bad things often don’t realize they’ve done it.
That’s part of their nature.
” Water Emissary shrugged.
“What are you implying?
” Fog Emissary realized the insinuation.
“Nothing.
” Water Emissary replied before telling Li Qiye: “Sir, maybe you should take a look at the battlefield if you want more clues.
I will not bother you any longer, please summon me again if you need me.
” “Splash!
” He dived into the water and the river disappeared.
“Where are you going?!
” Fog Emissary had more questions so he also gave chase, leaving behind Li Qiye and Six-style.
“What should we do now, Young Noble?
” Six-style asked.
“To Heavenfall to figure out the secret behind this.
” Li Qiye looked ahead and said.
“We must cross through Forest of Thoughts first.
” Six-style said.
“That’s fine, we’re getting close.
” Li Qiye smiled.
The major ghost market could be divided into three sections - the market itself, Forest of Thoughts, and Heavenfall.
The market was the main region where transactions took place between cultivators and ghosts.
Forest of Thoughts was outside - a mountainous and verdant area with no end in sight.
As for Heavenfall, it had nothing outside of perils.
Therefore, even the grand ghosts refrained from visiting.
Li Qiye and Six-style entered Forest of Thoughts and saw no ghosts.
This looked just like the regular world.
Lush mountains and dense forests greeted them.
How could such a peaceful place filled with natural beauty be associated with ghosts?
However, this mysterious place had a particular belief - strong memories evoke echoes.
Cultivators entering with strong feelings could resonate with the forest.
For example, if one were to be obsessed with finding a spirit grass, they could actually find it in the forest.
This seemed great on the surface but in reality, there was a price to pay.
Dangers might loom near the grass, perhaps a ghost.
This strange phenomenon aside, the forest was known for its temples that could be summoned with strong thoughts.
A temple containing an alchemy field might appear to the person wanting to find a spirit grass.
