Chapter 147: Chapter 145: Revenge (Third Update)_1

Within thirty miles, no one was around, and there was a desolate temple in the mountain. No one knew when it was built, and the once-thriving temple had become decrepit. More than half of the statues in the temple were broken, looking like some kind of mountain spirit or wild monster, worshipped by the foolish local people. But as the nearby residents died out, the temple was also abandoned.

The people from Nanni Nation were resting in the temple, with lit torches, making the desolate temple even more eerie and horrifying.

They rushed continuously throughout the night and planned to rest for half a shichen before continuing their journey.

At this moment, suddenly, a series of voices were heard, and a merchant team was walking along the mountain road outside.

They didn’t care about it at first, as it was normal for a merchant team to miss lodging on the way. However, as this merchant group got closer, they suddenly felt this group looked familiar.

The leader suddenly sneered coldly and scolded, "Little Ghosts who overestimate themselves, how dare you pester us!"

It was only then that the others recognized that it was the same merchant team they had executed before, the one with false identities. At first, they were shocked, but soon they laughed: if this were an ordinary person, they would have been scared to death in the dead of night.

"You guys, instead of being good ghosts, you’re trying to scatter your souls. There will be no ghosts left to be!"

The merchant team members, carrying their "goods," entered the temple indignantly, gritting their teeth and saying, "Tonight, we will put our lingering thoughts to rest and become ghosts peacefully!"

"Hahaha..." The people of Nanni Nation went wild with laughter, and the flames in the desolate temple jumped as they lit the terrifying shadows on the walls. However, the laughter of the people of Nanni Nation quickly turned into terrified roars, and finally into piercing, miserable screams...

Half a shichen later, everything became silent. In the desolate temple, only the crackling of torches remained, and the terrifying shadows on the walls disappeared.

The new ghosts of the merchant team came out one by one. After taking their revenge, they immediately felt the strong power within their bodies being rapidly drawn away.

They remained silent and returned to the Ghost Zone in an orderly manner.

When they arrived at the entrance to the Ghost Zone, they saw a Ghost Knight coming back at full speed. When he met them, he said, "Don’t worry, the Judge Lord has ordered me to go to your village. In a few days, your family members will discover a treasury left over from the previous dynasty, which will be enough for them to live on."

The new ghosts paused for a moment, looking in the direction of the Judge’s Office in the Ghost Zone, and bowed deeply. After their revenge, their biggest concern was the loved ones they had left behind in the living world. Now they could finally cultivate their souls wholeheartedly in the Ghost Zone.

Butcher Maxwell watched from the side and regretted missing out by a hair’s breadth. This Treasure Ghost Judge was truly extraordinary. These new ghosts were originally arranged by the Honored Lord to be under Lord Bone Sea, only to be shared out part of the bounty by him.

And in such a short time, he used Yin treasures to build the framework of the Judge’s Office in the Ghost Zone!

...

After the new ghosts of the merchant team left, a figure walked down from the hillside nearby. It was not the Mechanical Dao Soldiers but Owen Bertram himself.

Of course, he had to handle touching the corpses himself.

What if there was some pale face?

Besides, Owen Bertram had another reason why he had to do it himself. He stood at the entrance of the desolate temple and uttered a special note, resembling an ancient language, but also sounding like a beast’s roar.

The surrounding void was enveloped by a special force, and strands of souls floated out of the battered corpses.

This was Owen Bertram’s first use of the divine skill he had obtained: the Three-part Spirit Technique.

There was no bottom line for traitors from other countries for Owen Bertram.

The souls of the people from Nanni Nation had also suffered heavy damage, and some of them were already very thin, ready to be annihilated at any time. Owen Bertram had no sympathy for them either.

He checked the other souls and found that there were enough of them to use, so let those that were about to be annihilated be annihilated.

In the Three-part Spirit Technique, reversing the "Soul Absorption" method can heal these souls, but Owen Bertram would never use it on them.

The "Soul Control" method was activated, and the remaining souls were at first bewildered, but since they had all been powerful cultivators in their lives, their souls were strong after death, and they quickly began to struggle, unwilling to be controlled.

But Owen Bertram’s Responsive Object flew out, and in an instant, all the souls were suppressed to the ground, obediently controlled by the "Soul Control" method.

Owen Bertram mercilessly read their memories, finally knowing the answers he most cared about.

"The traitor leading the way is the Sword Mountain Master!" Owen Bertram sneered secretly. He had made a name for himself in the Wood Dynasty, and all the benefits he had obtained were in the Wood Dynasty. This kind of person actually betrayed their country and sold their soul to the Red Race, and they deserved to die.

"Vanessa Garden... there is a treasure map."

Owen Bertram entered the temple and found the treasure map on the corpses. He was more familiar with the nearby terrain than these people from Nanni Nation. He compared the map and was shocked to find that the entrance to this place was actually the well in the backyard of the Taoist temple!

However, according to the map, to reach Vanessa Garden, several trials had to be passed, and any carelessness would lead to utter destruction.

"But obviously, it did not stop my younger brother." Elder Brother shrugged his shoulders and laughed.

According to the text on the back of the map, this Vanessa Garden was laid out by a powerful figure a thousand years ago, who planted spirit plants, and then left a treasure map for their descendants.

After countless twists and turns, the map eventually ended up in the hands of the Young Master of Nanni Nation.

There were two communication talismans on the leader, one to contact the traitor, the Sword Mountain Master, and the other to contact the Young Master.

At this point, Owen Bertram was able to confirm that the group of people in the cave at the village entrance was the team led by the Sword Mountain Master. Now, what needs further confirmation was whether the "treasure underground palace" mentioned by the Sword Mountain Master was indeed the snack warehouse of my younger brother.

Putting other matters aside for the moment, Owen Bertram collected the treasures from the corpses. But this group of people was dirt poor. The Young Master of Nanni Nation was equivalent to the Crown Prince of the Wood Dynasty, and serving the Crown Prince, the whole group of them had only twenty-three Spirit Jades and several hundred taels of silver on their bodies.

There was also a "divine artifact" on the leader, which was actually a magical instrument from the Red Race’s cultivation system.

It was a crystal dagger that, after being smeared with its user’s blood, could unleash a "critical attack" three times more powerful than its user’s own strength.

But there was also a limitation, only effective within the "Power of Athena".

In the Red Clan’s cultivation system, the "Power of Athena" was equivalent to the Third Great Realm.

According to their division, at this level, one would possess the strength to carry three great mountains on their shoulders - the name sounded strange, and one might wonder how big their mountains really were.

Owen Bertram really wanted to ask: in my last life, would anyone be interested to learn about the smallest mountain in the world?

"You sold yourselves to the Red Race, and this is what you became? Servants of the Crown Prince, reduced to the beggars of the Cultivation World!" Owen Bertram scolded the souls angrily, and they couldn’t talk back anyway.
