Chapter 491: Chapter 453: Retrieving Meat

The Su family’s ancestral tomb is different from the grand tomb atop Cloud Peak. When the grand tomb was opened, there were no auspicious signs.

In truth, this is the normal appearance of a Divinity Transformation powerhouse’s grand tomb.

After all, a Divinity Transformation powerhouse is still far from becoming an Immortal. Though they wield the strongest power below Immortals, without the Immortal Ascension Pool, unable to forge immortal bones and a celestial fetus, they are destined to remain mere mortals.

And how could an ordinary mortal’s tomb produce auspicious signs?

"For dozens of generations, the ancestral tombs of the Su family are all here. The Su family’s foundation accumulated over countless years is almost entirely here—"

Once inside the grand tomb, merely ten zhang into the passageway, there is an abyss.

On the other side of the abyss lies a spacious cave chamber, and within the spacious cave chamber stand mounds of graves all around.

Wang Yanyu traveled with the wind at the edge of the abyss, crossing the five or six zhang wide Sky Gorge as lightly as a feather, reaching the other side’s cave chamber.

Standing amidst the grave mounds, she found herself surrounded by tombstones.

Within the grave mounds, the corpses of the Su family’s ancestors and patriarchs are buried, and their names and life stories are inscribed on the tombstones.

These ancestors and patriarchs have significant histories within the Su family’s long history, especially the earlier generations who were mostly Nascent Soul powerhouses. Only in the later generations were they almost all Golden Core cultivators.

However, Wang Yanyu bypassed the grand tombs of those Nascent Soul powerhouses and strode over to an ancient grave mound.

The ancient grave mound was the largest among all the ancestral tombs in the cave chamber.

The mound was three zhang high, four zhang long, and two zhang wide.

Though it was called a mound, it was actually a house-sized rectangular stone coffin.

The stone coffin was completely sealed off, covered in engravings from top to bottom except the base.

An astute observer would immediately notice that these engravings did not recount the life of the deceased but were rather to suppress the deceased—

The Su family patriarch died, but the Su family’s ancestral tomb was not constructed to bury the patriarch but rather to suppress him.

"In the 1234th year of the Sky Bright calendar of Great Qi, Su Tianhe, the old traitor of the Su family, was beheaded and his body sealed here—this was recorded by Zhang Sheng, the one who held the sword!"

Wang Yanyu had never visited the land of mass burial nor encountered Lady Qian at Yu Family Village with Tian Lin and others.

This was precisely why she had little knowledge of Zhang Sheng’s background.

However, she had her own sources of information!

She remembered seeing a diary in the Wang family’s study during her childhood.

That diary, left by an old patriarch of the Wang family, documented his plan to seize treasures from the Su family’s ancestral tomb;

Unfortunately, that old patriarch entered the Su family’s ancestral tomb with others, but not only did they fail to find any treasure, he was severely injured.

However, before his demise, this gravely injured patriarch managed to leave the exact location of the Su family’s ancestral tomb and recorded how to use the ancient corpses within the tomb to enhance one’s cultivation.

[In the thousandth two hundred and something year of the Sky Bright calendar of Great Qi, the world had become a living ghost realm; the Su family patriarch, with the surname Su and given name Tianhe, lived off cultivators, finally defying fate to become a Divinity Transformation cultivator.

Yet the cosmos is not unjust, and there are righteous people who mete justice on behalf of the heavens; Zhang Sheng, former member of the Demon Hunting Bureau, emerged to behead Su Tianhe and seal him in the north.

Su Tianhe devoured countless people, and after death endured the punishment of being gnawed upon by tens of thousands of cursed spirits. His body never rotted or disintegrated, becoming celestial flesh under a curse, possessing the effect of a Ginsengfruit—]

According to that old patriarch of the Wang family, Su Tianhe ate too many people and was cursed by these deceased, turning into a mass of flesh with cultivation.

And by consuming Su Tianhe’s flesh, one could enhance their cultivation.

Why did Wang Yanyu marry into the Su family?

Even if she hated Zhai Xingzi, even if she wanted to get married to ultimately take revenge on Zhai Xingzi, why marry into a family that did not even possess Nascent Soul cultivation? Was it merely to usurp someone else’s nest?

She came for Su Tianhe’s flesh.

Previously, she had consumed a piece, achieving her current late Golden Core cultivation stage.

However, a late Golden Core cultivation stage was still insufficient for her to act with impunity in this world.

To exact revenge and defeat Zhai Xingzi, she needed to reach the Nascent Soul realm no matter what.

Because, to her knowledge, Zhai Xingzi was on the verge of reaching the Nascent Soul realm.

"Vicious woman, how dare you come here!"

Just as Wang Yanyu quietly observed the grand tomb, a young man with hollowed-out eyes poked his head out above the stone coffin.

The young man looked particularly terrifying with his disheveled hair and empty eyes.

If Tian Lin were here, he would undoubtedly recognize this young man as the Su family son, Su Shaoqing, who had fled from marriage that day.

After Su Shaoqing disappeared, his mother secretly sent people to search for his whereabouts.

Even Zhou Jin dispatched people to search for Su Shaoqing’s trace—alas, neither Su Shaoqing’s mother nor Zhou Jin managed to find his whereabouts.

Who would have thought that this runaway groom would be confined in the Su family’s ancestral tomb by Wang Yanyu.

"I am the matriarch of the Su family; why wouldn’t I dare come here?"

Wang Yanyu leapt onto the stone coffin, standing atop and looking down at Su Shaoqing lying on the stone coffin.

At this moment, Su Shaoqing was pinned to the stone coffin by a hollow stone drill nail.

His clothes were in tatters, exposing skin that occasionally bulged and receded as if worms were crawling beneath.

Those crawling within him were, of course, not worms but the resentful spirits from Su Tianhe’s body!

These resentful spirits, sealed for countless years within the stone coffin along with Su Tianhe’s corpse, no longer possessed the initial ferocity.

However, they still retained the characteristic of devouring others’ souls—

Su Tianhe, possessing Divinity Transformation cultivation, imbued every inch of his skin with the divine sense of a Divinity Transformation powerhouse.

Originally, his corpse was ’toxic’, and anyone who consumed his corpse would be attacked by his remaining soul.

But over countless years, first due to Zhang Sheng’s sealing, then due to the devouring by these resentful spirits, every inch of skin on Su Tianhe’s body was consumed by these spirits until none of his remnant soul remained.

It was precisely because of the existence of these spirits that Su Tianhe’s corpse transformed into a block of celestial flesh with only spiritual energy cultivation and not a trace of residual poison.

The Wang family patriarch called Su Tianhe’s corpse a ’Ginsengfruit’, without an ounce of exaggeration.

"You destroyed the Su family’s clan tomb and still intend to scheme against the Su family patriarch. Aren’t you afraid that after you die, the ancestors and patriarchs will punish you?"

Wang Yanyu sneered, "They couldn’t deal with me when I was alive, and I’d fear them even less after death! Besides, where does a waste like you, who abandoned your family, get the face to scold me?

Do you not know that under my command, the Su family has now fully taken control of Beiyed County?

I tell you, under my leadership, the Su family will not only control Beiyed County in the future but will also dominate the entire North Wilderness. I will make the Su family the number one aristocratic family in the world, so that the Wenda Sect will not dare to shout at the Su family anymore!"

After saying this, she pulled an iron rod from her Storage Bag and inserted it into the hollow stone drill nail.

The stone drill nail was mostly embedded in Su Shaoqing’s body, with a small part piercing into the interior of the stone coffin.

The resentful spirits on Su Tianhe’s body entered Su Shaoqing’s body through this stone drill nail.

When swarms of resentful spirits entered Su Shaoqing’s body, the spirits in Su Tianhe’s body were significantly diluted.

And with the diluted state, a portion of Su Tianhe’s body inevitably had a piece of good flesh untainted by spirits.

Wang Yanyu relied on consuming this good flesh from Su Tianhe’s body to achieve her late Golden Core cultivation.
