Chapter 132 Revisiting the Underworld

Green locust money +1

For Li Qingshan, seeing these numbers constantly appearing before his eyes was a pleasant experience.

In the stillness of the night, Li Qingshan came alone to the old locust tree and pressed his palm against the rough bark.

With 1356 Green Locust Coins, he collected two to three hundred corpses in a short period of time, and his Green Locust Coin balance soared.

It's time to splurge.

To open the gates of the underworld, you need 300 Green Locust Coins.

Should we open the gates of the underworld?

Li Qingshan silently chose yes.

Green locust money—300

Time remaining until the Gates of the Underworld open: 1 minute 59 seconds. The Gates of the Underworld open every 30 minutes.

It only lasted 30 minutes, shorter than the previous two times.

Li Qingshan was immediately jolted awake and ran into the house, picking up a sack with his left hand and the Ghost Mask with his right.

He couldn't be sure where the Gate of the Underworld would lead after it opened. If it was still the same melon patch as last time, he would just pick a few more melons to take back.

When Li Qingshan was ready and hurriedly arrived in front of the fierce field, there were only 30 seconds left on the countdown.

Inside the iron cage, white mist gradually rose, obscuring Li Qingshan's vision.

Li Qingshan opened the door he had prepared beforehand and stepped inside.

The white mist, like the lips of a mature woman, gradually enveloped him.

It's wet.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, that damp, dark, and cramped atmosphere returned.

Li Qingshan's eyes lit up. He had come to the right place; it was the same cave as last time.

I didn't expect to come to the right place on the first try. It seems I've been quite lucky lately, probably because I've examined quite a few corpses, and my merits have been steadily increasing.

The cave remained completely dark, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.

Li Qingshan took out a tinderbox he had prepared beforehand, blew on it gently, and a small flame shot out.

The flames illuminated the damp rocks, and a faint rustling sound came from afar, the source of which could not be determined.

Li Qingshan carefully walked forward, carrying the Ghost Mask in his right hand and the Fire Folding Pole in his left.

After walking about twenty or thirty feet, we arrived at the deep pit again.

Looking down, there was a giant bluish-black snake at the bottom of the pit, with countless smaller snakes intertwined around the edge, so densely packed that it could drive someone with trypophobia crazy.

Li Qingshan stood at the edge of the pit, frowning in thought.

The cave was the same as before, and the snake was still inside.

This exploration confirmed to me that I could successfully reach this place by consuming Green Locust Coins.

Given the current situation in the North, I can obtain Green Locust Coins continuously.

If it doesn't work the first time, try again. Eventually, you'll be able to kill the black snake.

The next question is how to kill him.

The pit is very deep, about ten feet deep, and it's definitely not feasible for me to go down there by myself.

Li Qingshan's first thought was to poison the animal or spread the disease through rotting wild dogs.

But if this black snake gets infected, can its blood still be used?

19 minutes and 29 seconds until the gates of the underworld close. There's no time to think too much. Having come all this way, we should first test the black snake at the bottom of the cave before we can find the right remedy.

Li Qingshan glanced around and spotted a rock on the ground about the size of a soccer ball.

He leaned the fire tinder aside, put down the demon mask in his hand, picked up the stone with both hands, and slammed it heavily onto the black snake on the ground.

Bang!

The stone hit the black snake squarely on the head, but it didn't seem to cause any damage; the snake didn't even react much.

Immediately afterwards, it suddenly raised its head, its horns and claws gleaming, and its bright red tongue flicked out. Its eyes gleamed with a greenish light as it stared at Li Qingshan on the cave ceiling.

hiss!

It raised its head and let out a long hiss, like the roar of a dragon.

Li Qingshan felt dizzy and almost fell headfirst into the pit.

He broke out in a cold sweat and, in his panic, tried to grab something, which happened to touch the hilt of Ghost-Faced Roar's knife.

With a series of clanging sounds, Ghost-Faced Roar slid down the cave.

"My god—"

Li Qingshan almost mastered the barbarian language as well.

Another long hiss resounded, assaulting Li Qingshan's soul.

The little snake at the bottom of the cave gradually slithered up the rocks.

Li Qingshan dared not linger and fled outside with his tinderbox in hand.

He only returned alive to the ominous field after he plunged into the white mist and once again experienced the tongue of a mature woman.

Still shaken, I broke out in a cold sweat.

It seems that the black snake's voice can attack the soul; we should be prepared next time.

If you're dealing with the black snake at the bottom of the pit, the best way is, of course, to use ranged weapons.

He pondered a solution in his mind, and as soon as he got back to the house, he collapsed onto the kang (a heated brick bed) and fell into a deep sleep.

Northern grasslands, the Canglin tribe.

Zhejuan, dressed in a fur robe, frowned and fell into deep thought.

Hurried footsteps sounded from outside, and his younger brother, Huyan Bao, strode in.

Zhejuan waved her hand, and her beloved concubine, wrapped in a deerskin blanket, retreated to a corner of the tent.

Huyan Bao, without glancing to the side, said, "Brother, this is wonderful news!"

"At midnight, the Lord of Azure Scales let out a long cry for no reason. What is there to be happy about?"

"Big brother, look what this is?"

Huyan Bao clapped his hands, and two barbarians carrying a large sword came in from outside.

"What is this?" Zhejuan stepped in and saw that the blade was black, and the patterns on it looked like a bunch of ghost faces squeezed together.

"Brother, this sword is exceptionally heavy; it takes two people to lift it," said Huyan Bao. "We found it near the Lord of Azure Scales; isn't that a cause for celebration?"

"oh?"

Zhejuan frowned, went to the corner of the tent, pulled out a black iron spear, and placed it next to the black knife.

Both weapons were heavy, which added a touch of solemnity to the atmosphere inside the tent.

"I heard that Bald Salt of the Red Bone Tribe possessed a black iron spear, forged from pure iron, and quite valuable. Later, that Southerner also acquired one, and this is the third one we see here," Zhejuan said, frowning. "According to you, why would two weapons appear out of nowhere in the Azure Scale Lord's cave?"

"Brother, this is an auspicious sign."

"Um?

"

"I've heard from the Southerners that all weapons in the world, like fine horses and beautiful women, should belong to heroes. Since you are a hero, this weapon has come to you willingly."

Zheguer's brow relaxed, and he said, "What you said doesn't mean entirely. But why are they in the cave?"

"I heard from the elders of the clan that the cave where the Lord of Azure Scales resides is located at the intersection of Yin and Yang. The Lord of Azure Scales is about to transform into a dragon, and perhaps out of gratitude for the care our clan has provided, he specially stole two treasures from the underworld to give to my elder brother."

"This, this, this—" Zhejuan was so excited that she didn't know what to say. The Lord of Azure Scales was so good at handling things.

"We've only done some insignificant things, Lord Azurescale, why are you being so polite?" Zheguer said. "This is a sacred object; it must be carefully enshrined."

"In my opinion, we should take advantage of the spring to hold a divine weapon tournament, so that all races can come and see these two divine weapons and witness the strength of our race."

"It would be best to do this after the Azure Scale Lord transforms into a dragon. Now is a critical moment, and also the time when the Azure Scale Lord is at his weakest," Zhejuan said. "Let's also go to the North and capture some more blood offerings. The Azure Scale Lord is so good at handling things, we can't be lacking in courtesy."
