High-tech invasion, I can see the future

Chapter 165 Nine-Turn Golden Essence Pill! Moon Demon Notes - Shadow Spider Woman

Despite grumbling and cursing, Bai Yu was still quite curious.

Moreover, he is now deeply involved in the case of the Shadow Spider Woman, not only with the Dark Lord lineage but also with the Shadow Realm lineage.

To be precise, they were all related to his life.

Meow meow meow~!

He also received news about Moon Demon Ding Yuanchao today.

This guy has connections with lizardmen, demons, and the Shadowlands.

He's an important character!

Seeing that Bai Yu seemed to have made up his mind, Yuan Guofeng asked, "How about it? Five thousand spirit stones is no small sum. It's equivalent to five hundred million!"

"If you ask anyone else, they probably wouldn't be able to come up with such a large sum of money, but if you agree now, I'll transfer the money to you immediately."

"Get lost! I already have so many enemies. If I really catch this guy, I'll be set on my deathbed! Besides, do you think someone like this is so easy to catch?"

Yuan Guofeng, having learned that Bai Yu was valued by a powerful figure in the Tianyuan Realm, laughed and said, "Haha~ You're so resilient, you're practically an unkillable cockroach."

"Moreover, as the old saying goes, 'The more debts you have, the less burden you carry.' One enemy, three enemies, ten enemies—it's all the same."

"Are you still afraid of them?"

"Hehe~ Hehehe~! Tell me what clues you've found first. I need to hear them to know if I can be of any help."

Hearing this, Yuan Guofeng became excited and quickly said, "This matter is a bit complicated. Simply put, we've used special methods to locate the Dark Dragon Lord. One thing we can confirm right now is that the Shadow Spider Woman is in the mountains surrounding Linshui City!"

"Or perhaps, they're hidden within Linshui City. The person is likely being personally guarded by the Black Demon King's subordinates."

"We'll give you the specific information and relevant data we've received shortly."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu pondered for a moment, then asked, "By the way, you released the Dark Dragon Lord, so what exactly has he done now?"

"He has assassinated three or four hundred aliens with the help of the Shadow Realm and the Shadow Alliance, but so far he has not affected us humans."

Hearing this, Bai Yu was also somewhat surprised.

What a chosen one, a working-class guy!

But what about the motivation?

Logically, the Shadowlands shouldn't need to consider the lives of humans when they do things.

They should just start a war!

"Are we going to crash?"

"We won't crash until the Black Demon incident is over. Because, according to our investigation, the Black Lotus will eventually reside deep within the Soul Sea."

"And this Shadow Spider Woman contains a wisp of the Shadow Spider King's soul!"

"The Black Demon's plan is to use the power of the ancient god and this wisp of soul to devour most of the Shadow Spider King's power, thereby achieving rapid growth."

"If their plan is perfect, a powerful enemy at the Heavenly Origin Realm could be born within just one year."

"Those alien races may not take us humans seriously, but they would never dare to underestimate the power and rules of the ancient gods!"

"So their motivation to cooperate with us now is very strong! If they provoke us again, their Shadow Spider King of the Fifth Realm might be sentenced to half a death sentence, unable to advance to a higher realm in the future."

After understanding this logic, Bai Yu felt much more relaxed.

As for his "minor conflicts" with the underworld, they do not affect the overall direction.

"Haha~! Looking at it this way, our choice was indeed quite right."

"So, can you actually solve this or not? Give me a straight answer!"

"How about this, you give me five thousand spirit stones first. If I can catch it for you before the Black Lotus Flower descends, then the deal is done. If I fail, I'll refund half of it."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Guofeng retorted angrily, "Heh! You've got a good plan, haven't you? So you're going to make money no matter what, huh?"

"That took me a lot of time and effort too!"

"No, no, no, this is called a military pledge. If we fail to fulfill it, we'll face a military court-martial."

"Never mind then, thinking about it carefully, I'm not actually that short of money. Right, Lao Wang?"

Wang Wen, who was quietly sipping his tea, hadn't expected to be mentioned. He replied, "Yeah. With me around, what money are you short of, kid?"

"that is!"

Yuan Guofeng was furious with those two.

"Let's talk business! If you can really catch it for me, I'll give you another big treasure."

"I have quite a few gems up my sleeve right now, and I haven't even started exploring them all yet."

Yuan Guofeng:

What am I supposed to do after you say that?

Damn it! Can't we just bribe this capable kid with money?!

He really wanted to talk about the Starlight Project or something, but this kid is definitely going to get in.

At this moment, Wang Wen coughed and said, "This kid seems to be pursuing the path of dual cultivation of body and technique. Body cultivation is very resource-intensive."

"I heard that our teacher recently developed the Nine-Turn Golden Essence Pill, a special formula for body cultivation?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Guofeng's eyes widened: "Even those at the Heavenly Origin Realm might not be able to obtain this. If my teacher heard that I wanted this, wouldn't he slap me? Could my body withstand that?"

Hearing the two old men talking about their teacher, Bai Yu almost laughed.

Wang Wen then said, "I'll go with you. But you'll have to lead the way."

Yuan Guofeng remained serious after hearing this.

It was as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Looks like the shadow is quite large!

"But while this kid's strength is decent, his cultivation level is a bit lacking, and his physique can't handle the Nine-Turn Golden Essence Pill. That's a fifth-grade pill!"

"The two of us went there naturally to ask the teacher to refine a batch of third-grade Nine-Turn Golden Essence Pills."

"What?! Don't you know what precious materials this pill is made of? Third-grade! Isn't that a complete waste?"

"Which top genius wasn't cultivated in this way? The older generation of powerhouses consumed a lot of rare and precious herbs."

Yuan Guofeng thought about it carefully and said, "But there's no certainty about this, and we don't know if we can get it."

Their brief exchange piqued Bai Yu's interest.

I'm itching to get my hands on this!

After careful consideration, Yuan Guofeng said, "How about this: five thousand spirit stones plus a Nine-Turn Golden Essence Pill. If you succeed, I'll help you ask for it. If you fail, I'll give you a maximum of one thousand spirit stones."

Bai Yu became interested in the Nine-Turn Golden Essence Pill at this moment.

Hearing this, he felt a surge of fighting spirit and said, "Okay!"

That's how it was decided.

Yuan Guofeng then said, "Then I'll give you the information I have about the Dark Dragon Lord and the Shadow Spider Woman later."

"it is good."

He's been reading a lot of documents lately.

I feel like I could open my own archives!

Yuan Guofeng then received a call; they had finished their work in Guta Village and had to go back.

Outside the isolation ward.

Bai Yu also saw the old man on the hospital bed. He was covered in black, and evil energy had already eroded his entire body!

Moreover, judging from the sensation, most of the old man's power had dissipated, likely passed on to others.

The successor was not his son, but one of his grandsons!

No! Not grandchildren!

At this age, he should be a great-grandson? Bai Yu doesn't know the reason why he's called grandfather.

Turning his gaze away, Bai Yu looked at a bronze-skinned boy from Guta Village.

This person is the one who received the inheritance.

Is it ancient jade?

We'll find out more later.

The four boys had clearly cried a lot; their eyes were red and streaked with tears.

The newly appointed village chief of Guta Village, Gu Yi, bowed to Bai Yu and said, "Thank you, young brother! You have given us the opportunity to say our final words to my father."

The four young people expressed their gratitude repeatedly, but Bai Yu ultimately failed to revive him and waved his hands repeatedly.

"There's no need for that!"

My condolences to you all.

He really wanted to say he was in his eighties or nineties, which wasn't short. But he felt like he'd said the wrong thing.

After expressing his gratitude, Gu Yi turned to Professor Yuan Guofeng and exchanged a few words with him.

The general idea is to deal with the evil spirits so that they can easily transport the corpse back to Guta Village for funerals and such.

They are currently unable to respond to the Bureau of Investigation's proposal to come out of retirement.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu's expression turned strange.

It has the feel of a reclusive family!

To be honest, he didn't know the strength of Guta Village, but it was definitely not comparable to Kunlun Ancient Village, which he had heard about from Director Yang.

However, if there is a lineage, the proportion of cultivators will be high, which is indeed something the authorities need.

After a while, the people of Guta Village began to deal with the remains of the old tower keeper.

The Sakurajima group, whose plans were unclear, exchanged a few polite words with Professor Yuan and then left.

Looking at the empty corridor.

Bai Yu asked, "What's the situation in Guta Village?"

"Ethnic minorities live deep in the mountains and forests, only caring about their own small plot of land."

"Understood. It's best not to say too much about things that are detrimental to unity."

Yuan Guofeng rolled his eyes. Why is he even using that sarcastic tone he sees online?

Given their status, they can say whatever they want.

"It's not that we're completely uncooperative. It's just that our thinking is too outdated. With the arrival of a new era, clinging to a corner of the world will ultimately harm us."

They actually have a high opinion of the talent of the people in Guta Village.

Initially, resources were provided to support the development of those at the Spirit Origin Realm.

Ten years ago, that was equivalent to the combat power of the Spirit Sea Realm!

But they just guard the tower and only help you with a little bit of stuff in this area.

In that case, they have no choice but to change their policy.

Over the past decade, Guta Village has remained largely unchanged, and under such circumstances, it's impossible for the authorities to directly provide resources to cultivate promising talents at the Spirit Sea Realm.

It's like we're getting more and more outdated as we get older.

Bai Yu just remembered a question and asked, "By the way, I heard there's a black pagoda in their village dating back to the Tang Dynasty. Does it hold any secrets?"

"That's a long story. In the latter half of the Tang Dynasty, the Human Emperor's Way began to decline, and demons and monsters from those eras reappeared. According to legend, the power suppressed by the Black Tower was one of the incarnations of the Seven Black Demons. It was annihilated seven years ago when it was just beginning to emerge."

"Okay, got it. I'm off then."

"Don't forget about that, kid!"

"Don't worry, I remember. Make sure you have the spirit stones ready. They're worth 500 million now. Don't come back later saying the price has gone up and you're not going to honor the deal."

"Hey! The currency is stable, how much can it rise?"

As Wang Wen and Bai Yu walked further and further away, just as they were about to turn the corner, Wang Wen called out, "You brat! Have you forgotten about the evil energy?"

"Oh, I almost forgot."

Bai Yu turned around and saw Wang Wen laughing, his face darkening.

Meow meow meow~

Thankfully, they didn't call me again before I got back to the investigation bureau.

Near the hospital.

The training room of the Psionic Institute.

Bai Yu looked at the Soul Bead he had traded from the Sakurajima people.

These soul beads, which were originally dark blue, are now all deep black.

There were ten in front of Bai Yu!

I also glanced at the intelligence report.

Intelligence 2 (White)

Keywords: Moon Demon

Required intelligence points: 5

"The Moon Demon is a key figure in the Shadow Spider Woman incident, so let's check the intelligence first to make our cultivation run more smoothly!"

After purchasing the intelligence and seeing its contents, Bai Yu's expression became somewhat strange.

This intelligence seems to be extracted from this guy's notes!

The writing is quite neat, but the content is somewhat scattered.

Bai Yu read it carefully and, if it were compiled into a file, the core content would be roughly as follows:

[Mission Objective: Monitor the possible locations where the controlled Shadow Spider Woman may be imprisoned, gather intelligence on the Dark Dragon Lord's activities, and track the movements of the Vampire and Siren clans.]

Task Log

1. Shadow Spider Woman's location: The Shadow Spider Woman is currently clearly under the control of the Dark Lord and is suspected to be imprisoned in the underground river area established by the sea monsters in the Chang'an Mountain area.

2. Lizardman Activities: The Lizardmen have established multiple lairs in the mountains, which may contain rifts that can transport troops.

3. Vampire Activities: The vampires have hidden numerous laboratories within the northern mountains, and the estimated number of soldiers they are training is staggering. They are suspected of preparing for the Black Lotus Flower incident.

4. Dark Dragon Lord's Operation: The Dark Dragon Lord has recently been frequently appearing in the eastern district of Linshui City and is attempting to capture the lizardman leader, who was severely wounded in the battle of Mot Manor.

This is a very rough note.

Perhaps Ding Yuanchao will compile more detailed information into a complete report and submit it.

What he saw was only the first draft.

"The lizardmen have established a lair. I did see some of that information in the intelligence last night."

"The Dark Dragon Lord is trying to capture the Lizardman leader. Yuan Guofeng hasn't provided any information yet. We don't know if this is just Moon Demon's speculation, or if the authorities have any detailed information."

"For me, the most crucial thing is still the Shadow Spider Woman!"

"Is it an underground river in the Chang'an Mountain area?"

He also knew that Chang'an Mountain was a scenic area located three to five kilometers north of Sanchahe Town.

There's also a Chang'an Town.

It falls within the area influenced by Linshui City.

He thought about his recent schedule.

Laboratory No. 7, Ancient Pagoda Village, the Ghost Festival, and Freya's affairs.

The Crimson Moon Blade Demon, always hovering overhead.

"Speaking of which, Guta Village is only about two kilometers to the north, quite close to Chang'an Mountain. Perhaps we can go and take a look then."

"However, I'll be starting my training on the 20th. Let's see if I can dig out any information then."

"The Nine-Turn Golden Essence Pill!!!"

I took a deep breath.

He looked at the ten soul beads in front of him.

Start inhaling now!

The second page appeared, generating a tremendous suction force towards a soul bead.

A dense aura of evil surged forth like a tide, converging into a vortex.

Start inhaling!
