Chapter 59: Lin Tong's Information! Zhuo Yijian's Stand, Information Refreshed!

Qin Xuemei was practicing the Flying Eagle Technique when she saw Qin Wang's palms suddenly turn red. She stopped and was astonished. She knew that Wang Zai's Chiyang Divine Skill had made progress. Although she had read the Chiyang Divine Skill manual, it wasn't suitable for a woman to practice.

Qin Wang infused his right palm with Chiyang inner strength and struck a long stone slab in the temple.

"Bang!"

The palm strike landed with a muffled sound, and energy surged into the stone.

When Qin Wang lifted his palm, he saw the stone had cracks like a spider web, with a palm imprint about an inch deep where the stone had been pulverized.

"Turning stone to dust with a single palm, as expected of Yan Baifei's technique, the best in Liangzhou!"

Qin Wang was very satisfied with the power of his strike. If this landed on a person, they would likely be turned into a heap of blood and flesh.

"Hiss~~~"

"Wang Zai is so powerful now!"

Qin Xuemei was utterly shocked. She touched the cold, hard stone slab, which Wang Zai had just shattered with one palm. Just a few months ago, Wang Zai was starving and emaciated, but now he had changed so much!

"Sister, let's go!"

"When we reach Yingchou Gorge in Jinzhou, everything will be fine!"

Qin Wang said to his sister, carrying their luggage as they set out for Jinzhou. When they reached Yingchou Gorge, they would obtain the immortal cultivation manual!

While Qin Wang was leaving the temple, 500 miles away on a mountain path, Lin Tong, dressed in black with a gloomy aura, faced a man in his thirties. Cautious, he spoke slowly, "So it's you, Ninth Senior Brother. Why are you tracking me?"

At this moment, Lin Tong was feeling very grim. He thought he had left no trace, yet his Ninth Senior Brother Dan Shenggui had found him. It seems taking the Three Corpse Gu King Jar was the right move! That old man is indeed biased, teaching his tracking techniques to Senior Brother and not to him! And calling him his beloved youngest disciple—what a lie!

"Junior Brother, Master has come to Youzhou. He asked me to persuade you to return."

"He is now at the peak of martial arts and needs that treasure. If you bring it back, he will forgive you. You know he has a harsh mouth but a soft heart!"

Dan Shenggui tried to persuade Lin Tong, moving closer as he spoke. Although he said these things, he also coveted the Three Corpse Gu King Jar and planned to take it and disappear.

"Don't come any closer!"

"Senior Brother, you say he has a soft heart? He sucks the brains of people to cultivate. Don't think I don't know!"

Lin Tong waved his hand. He had learned that his master practiced dark arts, becoming crazed during full moons and needing to consume brains to calm down. This spurred him to steal the jar during one such episode.

At that moment, six strong second-rank martial artists armed with swords surrounded Dan Shenggui.

"As expected, Junior Brother is crafty!"

Dan Shenggui also made a move, releasing a cloud of blue mist towards Lin Tong.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The mist met something in the air and exploded, spreading blue smoke. The six martial artists quickly retreated. Amidst the blue mist, two figures flew backward!

"He's hit by my gu! Kill him while he's forcing it out!"

Lin Tong spat blood, his eyes venomous. He ordered his servants to attack Dan Shenggui, who lay on the ground, equally injured.

"You actually raised the Three Corpse Controlling Gu!"

Dan Shenggui lay in a pile of leaves, shocked. His master had said Lin Tong had talent, and now he believed it.

In Yanyun County, at the Chen residence:

"Cousin, based on the poison used, the couple who left through the South Gate that night must be the culprits!"

"If I don't capture and pulverize them, I'll be a disgrace to my family!"

Chen Kun, dressed in finery, spoke to his cousin Zhuo Yijian. With his family massacred, he needed to pursue the murderers, even if it meant neglecting his cousin.

"Cousin, we are family! Your matters are mine too. I'll send Elder Ji back to Yunzhou and join you in hunting them down!"

Zhuo Yijian pounded his chest in resolve. Helping his cousin now would pay off when Chen Yi returned with great power.

"True friendship shows in adversity!"

"Cousin, I owe you!"

Chen Kun glanced at Zhuo Yijian's three mid-level martial guards. One would return with a message, but the other two could help track the 'Yellow Finch'!

"Good, I'll make the arrangements, and we'll set off immediately."

Zhuo Yijian nodded, speaking firmly.

In Qinghe Town, Qin Wang and his sister Qin Xuemei stayed in an abandoned house at the town's east end.

In the early morning:

[Daily Information Refreshed!]

[Today's Information]

1: You followed Lin Tong, who was pursued by his Ninth Senior Brother Dan Shenggui. Though he killed Dan Shenggui at great cost, he was ambushed by his Eighth Senior Brother, also after the Three Corpse Gu King Jar. Lin Tong killed the Eighth Senior Brother with the jar's help but was severely wounded, hiding in a ruined temple 200 miles ahead.

2: The Three Corpse Gu King Jar Lin Tong stole is actually the Five Elements Divine Light Jar, a treasure of the Gu Master. It accelerates the growth of spirit insects. If combined with its lid and the Five Elements Water, it possesses great offensive power. Su Tianhai only discovered its nurturing ability.

3: Chen Kun, suspecting you as the 'Yellow Finch' due to your use of dispersing poison at the South Gate, is tracking you with Zhuo Yijian and two mid-level martial guards.

4: Thief Li Qiye, who stole the Chiyang Divine Skill, will receive an immortal opportunity in a month.

5: The mysterious shard you wore once belonged to a participant in the Great War of All Souls.

6: Jin Gu Yun, hired by Emperor Yun of Dacang at great expense, is actually a failed cultivator seeking a comfortable life.

7: Chen Kun's men have been searching for Qin Xuemei and her family in Qingniuji.

9: Lin Tong, now crippled, is no longer a threat to you.

10: Jiu Shen Seng, creator of the Chiyang Divine Skill, is trapped in the Tianxu Forbidden Area.

"Information refreshed!"

Qin Wang looked at the panel's prompts, feeling a surge of anticipation.
