From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Therefore, if we can really complete the challenge together, then splitting the rewards afterward is perfectly acceptable.

Having more friends means having more options!

Of course, Jiang Liu also had other purposes—the haunted hotel was able to gather such a large number of ghosts that were different from ordinary spirits, not only because it was inseparable from Abaddon, but also because its location was unusual. This allowed many ghosts to be affected by Abaddon's power and spontaneously manifest themselves, appearing as illusory images that could be seen by the naked eye without relying on Qi.

Honestly.

Jiang Liu suspected that this situation was similar to the Taixu Illusionary Realm technique he had comprehended from the Buddha's hair relic, so he wanted to spend more time studying it later.

purpose?

As a cultivator, one cannot be bound by conventions. To cultivate the Great Way, one must understand the Great Way. Since haunted hotels objectively exist, how can we keep our distance from them simply because they are "supernatural"?

In addition, he wanted to use this to create a new method for bringing the dead back to life.

His main world was still in the Republican era, with constant wars, so Jiang Liu couldn't possibly cover everything!

If members of the Confucian Society die of old age or illness, let nature take its course and return to the world; there is no need for excessive interference.

But if we die in battle and never see the prosperity of the future, wouldn't that be a pity?

The most crucial step in the method of bringing the dead back to life is to preserve the complete soul of the person in life!

The ghosts in haunted hotels are different from ordinary spirits. They do not use Yin Qi as a carrier, but rather the Primordial Qi as their source. Influenced by Abaddon, the representative of the Earth's will, and due to their special geographical location, their soul information is carried by the Primordial Qi, thus manifesting as phantoms.

Compared to living people, they don't have a physical body.

In theory, they could influence reality with their minds, but subconsciously they believe they can't...

This is the fundamental reason why those ghosts can walk on the ground and stairs, but cannot touch real objects.

If we can understand the underlying principles, based on the Illusory Realm of the Great Void and with the light points as the source, it might be possible to seal the soul information of Confucian scholars who died unexpectedly, along with their primordial energy that had not yet completely dissipated, within the light points, in the hope of their future revival and the shared enjoyment of a prosperous and glorious era.

"Are you serious?"

Esther was astonished that Benny's sincerity had actually been reciprocated, and her face was filled with disbelief.

"I never lie."

Jiang Liu spoke eloquently.

Both Da Yu and the two Xiao Yu looked towards Jiang Liu with disdain: →_→.

after that.

The two "families" hit it off immediately and began to cooperate, preparing to pass the second challenge together.

Wilderness survival?

Do not!

It's about cooperating to survive...

···

the other side.

After Lu Jin, Duanmu Ying, and the others climbed out of the trap, they continued on their way, but after only a few steps, they encountered a child who was less than a meter tall:

Abaddon.

What are you doing here?

Lu Jin was surprised and went forward to ask, only to see Abaddon take out a spray bottle, press it lightly, and a large cloud of white water mist sprayed out from the nozzle, spreading several meters and encompassing Duanmu Ying, Chen Long, Old Man, and Tru.

In an instant, all five of them fainted, including Lu Jin and Duanmu Ying. Just to be on the safe side, Abaddon pried open Lu Jin and Duanmu Ying's mouths and poured half a bottle of medicine into each of them.

Even cultivators are human. If they are drugged, they cannot directly detoxify through the circulation of Qi. At most, they can only suppress the poison. To completely detoxify, they either need to take an antidote or rely on their metabolism to slowly eliminate the poison.

However, Lu Jin's development at the gene lock level has already reached the second stage. If he disregards the consequences and goes all out, he may be able to unlock the third stage. Currently, he is moving towards normalizing the first stage of the gene lock. Even without circulating his Qi, his physical qualities and functions far surpass those of ordinary superhumans.

Abaddon was unaware of the gene lock system, but he had some understanding of Lu Jin's physical condition and knew that if he didn't give him more medicine, he might wake up soon.

What about Duanmu Ying?

She hadn't even unlocked the first level of her gene lock, but as a doctor, she had an extremely good understanding of the body. In addition, she had mastered the Iron Fan Banana Technique, which used the lungs as the central palace. Even if she fainted, her breathing would cause the formation of ancestral energy within her body, which could spontaneously regulate the metabolism of fluids throughout her body.

If you don't give him more medicine, he will wake up quickly.

As for the other three—

Even though Chen Long's talent is comparable to Zhang Zhiwei's, with only the Ren and Du meridians open, his combat power is comparable to that of an ordinary superhuman who has cultivated for decades... But in the end, he only has the Ren and Du meridians open. Once someone drugs him and he faints, he can only rely on his body's own metabolism.

When Lu Jin woke up, he had a headache. Looking at Abaddon standing in front of them, he was speechless and slightly angry: "Isn't this a bit too much?"

Esther exploited their kindness and lured them into a trap in order to win a million dollars... at least she was using the rules of the show "Man vs. Wild".

But what about Button?

This guy wasn't involved in "Man vs. Wild" at all!

So when Lu Jin first saw this kid, he didn't care and assumed that he had come on his own to find Catherine and participate in the reality show.

But to everyone's surprise, this kid drugged him and the others without saying a word!

"That's cheating!"

Duanmu Ying slowly woke up, realizing that her hands and feet were bound, making it difficult to exert any strength, and that her energy channels were also sealed. She shouted at Abaddon, "You didn't participate in the match at all! Esther actually found outside help? That's outrageous!"

However, putting herself in others' shoes, even though Duanmu Ying is currently single and has not had children, she can understand how her parents and master viewed her back then, that "restless" and mischievous girl.

What a brat!

“This has nothing to do with Esther; I kidnapped you on my own initiative.”

Without hesitation, Abaddon said, "I need to use you to threaten Jiang Liu and obtain eight demonic energies so that I can be freed from this body."

"Are you sure demonic energy can truly liberate you?"

Lu Jin's expression turned serious as he realized that the demon dragon had most likely been released by Abaddon.

"No, but it can give me a true demonic body."

Abbott said calmly, "To move freely in the world, one must possess a powerful body, but this little boy's body is far too weak..."

# Chapter 894 Abaddon's Fear of the Telephone

"Do you really want to be a devil?"

Chen Long advised Abaddon, "You are friends with Esther and Benny, aren't you? If you become a demon, you can no longer be friends with them."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, their decision not to include me in 'Man vs. Wild' is a betrayal of me."

Abaddon spoke casually, but he didn't want to look directly at Lu Jin and the others. "I have lived through a long period of time, while the lifespan of humans is only a short hundred years. Most people don't even reach a hundred years old. To me, it's like passing clouds, fleeting in an instant."

Drip!

At that moment, a bell rang from Abaddon's waist.

Abaddon opened his pocket, took out a flip phone, a bead of cold sweat dripping from his forehead. He opened it shakily, pressed the answer button, and asked, "Who is it?"

"I am the Little Demon Dragon."

The call came from Demon Xiaolong. "I saw the whole process of you kidnapping Chen Long and the others on the surveillance footage! Well done, Abaddon. As expected of the Ninth Demon, you easily accomplished what I couldn't."

to be frank.

Even the little demon dragon didn't expect that Abaddon would kidnap Chen Long, Old Man, and Tru so easily, and even kidnap Jiang Liu's two partners, Lu Jin and Duanmu Ying, as well.

That's absolutely incredible!

"Are you stuck on the phone?"

To the demon dragon's surprise, Abaddon uttered such a strange statement.

Upon hearing this, the little devil dragon remained silent for a moment before continuing, "You really are humorous, my friend."

Don't worry, I will handle things here and keep a close eye on Jiang Liu and the others' movements.

By the way...

It seems your friends are working together with Jiang Liu and the three Xiao Yus to survive; they might become very good friends!

“They are not my friends, but my servants.”

Abbott responded with a single sentence and then stomped on the phone.

Click.

The phone is broken.

Seeing that Lu Jin, Duanmu Ying, his father, Tru, and Chen Long were all staring at him, Abaddon felt a strange mix of emotions, but his face remained expressionless as he said, "I'm not used to using modern technology."

After saying that, he took a blender from a nearby cabinet, skillfully threw in some strange items: dice, pencils, cell phone fragments, and other things, and then pressed the switch.

Ugh!

As the blades inside the blender turned, all the messy stuff was continuously broken up.

By all accounts, Abaddon doesn't seem like someone who's unaccustomed to modern technology.

But why does he avoid using his phone?

Lu Jin believes this might be a key point.

But he simply asked, "What are you doing?"

"Aren't you scared?"

Abaddon, holding the blender, walked towards Lu Jin and said in a sinister tone, "What a magnificent killing machine this is!"

It can shred everything into pieces!

Fear it!

Humans!

hum!

The blender has stopped turning.

"broken?"

Abaddon, puzzled, patted the blender. Seeing it had truly stopped, a hint of madness flashed across his usually calm face as he roared to the sky, "No—"
