Chapter 310: Settling in the Eastern Palace, Heading to the Netherworld [10,000 words]_6
Since Mu Rufeng already has Zhao Yanran as his official wife, the descendant of Lu Ancestor, Lu Qianqiu, cannot marry him.
Given her status, it's impossible for her to become a concubine.
"Not bad, not bad, I heard you defeated the chief disciple of Heaven Sword Sect, Jian Yifeng. Very impressive. This time, let's see if that old guy from Heaven Sword Sect dares to flaunt in front of me." The Sixth Ancestor snorted.
"Time is of the essence, let's move quickly. First, we have to remove the Netherworld Flower Poison from Feng'er." The Seventh Ancestor said.
The three of them promptly left the Imperial Palace with Mu Rufeng.
Mu Rufeng felt a bit disoriented, couldn't see clearly, but could sense they were moving at a high speed.
They should be traversing through space.
Indeed, the existence of the Emperor Sovereign Realm is something he aspires to.
Minutes later, the surroundings began to clear up gradually, and they finally came to a complete stop.
Mu Rufeng glanced around and found this was a dense forest.
Just as Mu Rufeng was about to ask, a sudden urge to vomit hit him, but it was quickly suppressed.
"Feng'er's foundation is solid, he didn't even throw up." The Seventh Ancestor looked at Mu Rufeng with slight amazement.
"Truly a promising youngster, when my Qiu'er followed me on a journey, she vomited everywhere in just a dozen breaths and was dizzy." Lu Ancestor looked at Mu Rufeng with admiration.
"Hurry up and bring out the items, we should deal with the poison in Feng'er's body as soon as possible." The Sixth Clan spoke.
"Third Uncle, why are you in such a rush?" The Seventh Ancestor slightly shook his head, then took out a palm-sized flying shuttle.
He gently tossed it, and the shuttle began to radiate light, rapidly expanding until it was three zhang long and half a zhang wide, completely silver in color.
"Get on, with this flying shuttle, the speed will be faster, less strenuous, and you won't feel uncomfortable." The Seventh Ancestor said as he entered the shuttle.
Seeing this, Mu Rufeng quickly entered as well.
The space inside the shuttle wasn't large, but it comfortably accommodated four people, even doubling the number would be no problem.
Magically, despite seeing an exterior dome, once inside, the outside view was crystal clear.
"Take a seat, the Netherworld is quite a distance away." The Seventh Ancestor said as he sat at the first position, seemingly responsible for driving.
The Sixth Ancestor sat at the second position, Lu Ancestor at the third, and Mu Rufeng naturally took the fourth seat.
This shuttle had only four positions, yet when Mu Rufeng entered, there were none.
Presumably, the shuttle could evolve seats based on the number of people.
"Hold tight, we're setting off."
The Seventh Ancestor shouted, channeling his Qi Blood Power into the shuttle.
The next moment, the shuttle vibrated slightly, followed by a strong sense of acceleration.
In just three to five seconds, everything calmed down.
Mu Rufeng looked outside and found the shuttle flying at high speed in the sky, but inside the shuttle, he could not feel the speed at all.
Mu Rufeng touched the shuttle, then checked its attributes.
[Flowing Silver Shuttle]: Made from a special material combined with the secret technique of the most powerful Refining Sect from hundreds of years ago.
Effect: Level 9 item, with the ability to traverse space, extremely powerful concealment ability, and extremely strong defensive power.
Goodness, this is actually a Level 9 item; Mu Rufeng originally thought it was just a vehicle.
Thinking about it more, it's impossible; if there really were vehicles here, the Seventh Ancestor would practically rule.
"By the way, Ancestors, what exactly is the Ghost Cave?" Mu Rufeng asked.
To be honest, he's quite curious about the Ghost Cave.
From his memory, it's known that Ghost Caves are entrances to some death world.
On the Heavenly Dao Continent, there are five entrances in total, one in each domain.
The Supreme Emperor was severely injured and near death in the Western Ghost Cave.
Their Central Domain's Ghost Cave is located in Qin State.
Ghost Caves appeared tens of thousands of years ago, occasionally erupting undead creatures, but they were easily eradicated.
As time passed, the eruptions have become more frequent and terrifying.
The Ma family is a relatively powerful clan, wielding a heavy military force.
They have guarded the Qin State Ghost Cave for generations, earning imperial favor.
Apart from the above, Mu Rufeng knows little more.
"Ghost Cave? Why are you asking about it?" Lu Ancestor turned to look at Mu Rufeng.
"Just curious, are there really all undead creatures inside? And black special qi and another type of power?" Mu Rufeng asked.
"Indeed, there are all undead creatures inside. To kill them, you must completely erase them with our power to slay them."
"Alternatively, bring them into sunlight, the yang energy will rapidly burn them to death, the stronger they are, the longer they persist."
"If they are God Realm undead creatures, they can last an hour under sunlight before dying." Lu Ancestor said.
The Sixth Ancestor also spoke, "That kind of black fog is another type of power; we call it Death Qi; Death Qi is the source of undead creatures' power."
"But we cannot absorb this power, because Death Qi will erode martial artists, and severely, it can transform them into undead creatures."
"Of course, if contaminated by Death Qi, exposure to sunlight can eliminate it."
"Sunlight can kill those undead creatures and remove the erosion? Seems like these undead creatures greatly fear yang energy." Mu Rufeng expressed slight surprise, then spoke.
Mu Rufeng has never seen the undead creatures personally, but from information, he understands these undead creatures might be abnormal.
That Death Qi should be ghost qi.
Ordinary people can also suffer from the erosion of ghost qi, as known in the real world.
