Chapter 498 Origin of the Underworld

"I'm actually quite curious, how did you dare to secretly hunt down a member of the Holy Beast Bee Queen's clan?"

Wang Yi rolled the Queen Bee's magic crystal back and forth between his fingertips, staring at Lin Qingyu with a playful look.

Wang Yi still vividly remembers Lin Qingyu transforming into Kunwu and running away with a super-level wood dragon, and the sacred beast Azure Dragon's furious appearance.

This suggests that these sacred beasts value the lives of their own kind.

Lin Qingyu also possesses a secondary life form, a thought domain, and even a super-rank queen bee's magic crystal, indicating that he must have killed more than one queen bee of his kind.

Wang Yi wasn't surprised that Lin Qingyu dared to do this. After all, Lin Qingyu had dared to rebel against the Holy Beast Bee Queen and kill two queen bees, so what was so strange about that?

Wang Yi couldn't figure out what method Lin Qingyu had used to evade the detection of the sacred beast bee queen.

The method of disguising oneself as other magical beasts with flesh and blood might fool the Azure Dragon, but it wouldn't fool the Holy Beast Bee Queen.

Lin Qingyu once said that he had the mind of the Holy Beast Bee Queen in his soul, which allowed him to perceive the true form of the Holy Beast Bee Queen.

However, this perception is definitely bidirectional; the Sacred Beast Bee Queen naturally knows where Lin Qingyu has appeared.

"Kill? I didn't kill anyone," Lin Qingyu replied. "The magic crystal was given to me by the Queen Bee."

"The Holy Beast Bee Queen killed its own kind and then gave you the magic crystal?" Ren Tianque grinned. Lin Qingyu's status in the eyes of the Holy Beast Bee Queen was far too high.

Lin Qingyu gently shook his head: "Although the Queen Bee doesn't value her own people much, she wouldn't go so far as to kill them specifically to give me magic crystals."

"As a sacred beast of the queen bee clan, I have lost far too many super-level queen bees over the years. These magical beasts can't absorb magic crystals, so throwing me a few super-level magic crystals is no big deal."

"Actually, every clan's sacred beast collects some of their clan's magic crystals to some extent. I actually know a few places. If you want to go and rob some, I can point you in the right direction."

Ren Tianque shook his head; he wasn't that greedy for super-grade magic crystals.

Besides, isn't the place where the sacred beasts store their clan's magic crystals almost like the clan's graveyard? If they sneak in and steal them, are they trying to make the sacred beasts' killing intent strong enough?

At this moment, Wang Yi suddenly spoke up: "It's for the magic of Lesser Life, for the human crystal of Lesser Life."

Lin Qingyu glanced at Wang Yi with some surprise: "It seems you've also discovered the true function of secondary life forms. This magic is worthless in the hands of the Queen Bee clan. Apart from letting the secondary life forms parasitize a few magical beasts, it's utterly useless."

"Only in the hands of us mages, especially mages of all magic types, can it achieve its greatest effect."

A hint of mania appeared in Lin Qingyu's eyes: "Because this isn't magic for fighting at all."

Wang Yi lowered his gaze slightly and said in a cold voice:

"So the magic of the Underworld organization all comes from you? You are King Qin Guang? You also rely on providing human crystals to recruit people for the Underworld organization?"

Wang Yi finally understood why the underworld organization had been able to endure for so many years, with Yama Kings dying one after another.

Despite being a wicked organization wanted by all countries and operating in the shadows of the human world, it possesses more magic crystal resources than many medium-sized countries.

Even several major powers suspect that some high-ranking members within their ranks may be parasitized by the Underworld organization, secretly supplying it with magic crystal resources.

But after so many years of investigation, we have still found nothing.

Of course, they gained nothing, because the magic crystals of the Underworld Organization did not originate from within humanity at all, but were human crystals provided by Lin Qingyu from the outside.

He is the very rotten soil from which the underworld organization continues to multiply!

Thinking about this, Wang Yi couldn't help but feel annoyed at his own foolishness.

Damn it, he should have thought of this when he used the human crystals of secondary life forms for Xiao Hao and the others to absorb.

Even if things had gone awry, they should have realized what was happening when the King of Hell from the Underworld blocked the Chinese team at the Oran City Bridge.

Because these Yama kings all possess the ability to leap.

One or two is one thing, but the probability of having all five Kings of Hell is too low.

If we eliminate the other impossibilities, then the remaining possibility is: teleportation magic, which is actually a standard feature of the King of Hell.

Space magic crystals are already scarce, and mages with spatial talents are even rarer.

Such monks are treasures of their respective countries; how could they possibly stoop to joining an evil organization?

Unless... even ordinary mages without spatial talent can gain the opportunity to acquire spatial magic by joining the Underworld organization.

Only with such allure could many ordinary monks find it difficult to resist its temptation.

Especially those who have a certain status but lack the necessary qualifications, because they truly understand how powerful spatial magic really is, and they truly need to use such evil means to seize power and continue to consolidate their position.

As for allowing mages without much spatial talent to absorb warp, Wang Yi could only think of using the human crystals of secondary life forms, since that's what he did.

Looking at Wang Yi's gloomy face, Lin Qingyu smiled wickedly: "How about it? Creating your own secondary life form, enduring the feeling of weakness, and then killing it to take the crystal, do you like it?"

Wang Yi sneered and did not answer.

Like it? Of course not. The feeling of weakness is really unpleasant, and killing one's own secondary life form is even more perverse.

If it weren't for improving Xiao Hao and the others' strength, Wang Yi wouldn't have done this.

"I'm quite impressed that you thought of doing this, but you must have done it voluntarily, right?" Lin Qingyu sighed deeply and said with some envy, "It's really good to have a partner who would rather kill a lesser life form than not provide them with human crystals."

"After all, secondary life forms are formed from our life force, flesh, and magic. Even if they haven't been condensed into avatars, they should still be considered half of our children."

Lin Qingyu's description made Wang Yi frown in disgust.

However, Wang Yi noticed the meaning behind Lin Qingyu's words.

He created secondary life forms and then killed them to extract the crystals, providing the underworld organization with a source of human crystals, not voluntarily.

"So you're not King Qin Guang after all."

"Of course I am not King Qin Guang, and I cannot leave the magical world, so how could I develop an organization in the human world?"

Lin Qingyu nodded as a matter of course: "However, Qin Guangwang of the Underworld Organization is also a puppet of the Bee Queen. Since the Bee Queen has this ability, why is she so insistent on finding only me as her puppet?"

"Human mages are more well-rounded and have greater potential than magical beasts that are limited by themselves. After the Queen Bee discovered this, she was naturally more willing to control the geniuses among the human mages."

"What a pity, a beast is still a beast. He doesn't understand the principle of concealing one's strength. Otherwise, if he had kept his skills hidden for another ten years or so, and slowly controlled all the genius mages among humans, how could he have lost?"

At this point, Lin Qingyu suddenly chuckled.

"It was just a matter of a single thought. If the queen bee had hidden herself for another ten years or so, we could have been colleagues."
