In order to prevent the trouble from happening again, after Lin Ming bought his item, he took a few more circles and then bid farewell to Yue Liuxing and Yue Qifeng. Together with Xiao Moxian, he left the Divine Runic Masters Guild.
"Lin Ming, what kind of thing did you buy?" Xiao Moxian could not help but ask Lin Ming with a voice transmission as soon as they left. His curiosity got the better of him.
"If I'm not mistaken then this should be something left behind by the Asura Road Master. '' Lin Ming answered honestly. Xiao Moxian was shocked after hearing this. Asura Road Master!
On the Asura Road, the Asura Road Master was a true heavenly deity. Anything related to it, even if it was just a small fragment, was extremely valuable. No wonder Lin Ming had gone to great lengths to purchase this piece of broken jade.
"What's the point of this?"
“I don't have any ideas at the moment. But at any rate, we return to the Secret of Heaven for now! ”
"You want to go back to Heaven's Secret?" Xiao Moxian asked, surprised. They just left there not too long ago. "Why did you go to Heaven's Secret?"
“There is some information I need. This information is very important for me to learn the heavenly secret art. ”
The vast and all-encompassing heavenly secret art. To learn it, one needs to invest a lot of time and energy while accumulating a lot of knowledge and experience. What Lin Ming lacked the most was time. Even if he had the Asura Sutra backing him up, it was impossible to do all of this overnight, and if all of this was too much time then it was meaningless to Lin Ming.
After a few hours, Lin Ming arrived at Heaven's Secret once again. This time, Lin Ming had chosen to change his appearance.
Although Heaven's Secret sold all sorts of information, what they would not reveal was what kind of information their guests had requested. This is one of the most basic rules of intelligence networks, otherwise there would be no guests who could ask for information in secret, so as not to be seen by others.
Even so, Lin Ming felt safe to change his appearance. After all, the information he was looking for right now was extremely sensitive.
"Sir, what do you want to ask?" The doorkeeper asked Lin Ming at the entrance of Heaven's Secret.
"Master of heavenly secrets. ”
"What rank?"
“Fifth rank and above. ”
"Then please go to the fifth floor. "The doorkeeper said respectfully. It's the same floor last time.
After reaching the fifth floor with Xiao Moxian, Lin Ming took out a wooden board marked 'person' and then brought it to the appropriate room.
In this room, there was an old man dressed in blue waiting for Lin Ming.
The old man sat at the back of the room, separated from the guests by a hanging curtain. He spoke to Lin Ming through this curtain.
"What do you want to know?" The old man's voice was hoarse and hoarse, as if he was in the dwindling years of his life.
“I want information about the secret masters and heavenly alchemists. I don't want any heavenly secret masters from the Runic God Masters Guild. They should stay outside of Divine Rune City and better have a strange and eccentric personality. They must be the ones who have committed all kinds of sins and evils. I need their location, their cultivation methods, their cultivation limits, their approximate strength, what influence supports them, and all other related information! Moreover, heavenly secret masters should be in fifth grade or above. At least they should be in fourth grade! "
The blue-clothed old man was shocked as he listened to Lin Ming. “The information you want is very detailed so our price will be very high. This was also because if we betrayed the information of these people, our Heaven Secrets might offend them. ”
Heaven's Secret was an intelligence network and thus they gathered information about the great influences and important figures. If they sell this information to others, they are likely to offend them, especially if they are selling this information to their enemies or other hostile groups. Thus, Heaven Secrets would be very careful with what kind of information they were selling. If they cannot offend individuals, then they will never sell information no matter how high the price is. As for those who could offend, the price would be extremely high.
Intelligence networks are involved in all aspects of the world. If their background was not deep enough and they aroused the anger of some people, it was possible that they would be dug up and eliminated!
“Information about sensitive heavenly secret masters to get started. There were often many complex relationships behind these heavenly secret masters. Fortunately, you don't want any information about the heavenly runic masters that are part of the Runic God Masters Guild, if it doesn't matter how much origin rune energy you offer, it's not really that much, we still won't sell it to you. If you want information about the divine runic masters that have been exiled outside of the Divine Rune City, then I can actually provide some information to you. There is some information I have that is not very involved with greater influence. Each piece of information would be charged according to the details as well as the level of a heavenly secret master and each would range between 500 million to 700 million origin energy runes. ”
As the blue-clothed old man said these words, even though Lin Ming was already prepared for this, he still felt his blood dripping.
It's really expensive! Even though he was rich, for many years in the Asura Road, he had never earned any money, only spent it, and he had spent a lot of money as well. Lin Ming did not have too many nine sun jades left on him.
Lin Ming took out a piece of white jade and poured heavenly sense into it, further detailing his request. He wanted to know strength, cultivation, moral behavior, temperament, and so on. He also only wanted those evil people and demons. As for the highly respected heavenly secret masters and noble characters, he did not want them at all.
After the blue-clothed old man examined the white jade, he said, “There are a total of three people who match your request. Total price will be 1.6 billion! "
"Mm …"
Lin Ming took a deep breath and took out about nine sun jade from his spatial ring. After he lined up with them, he said, “Tell me everything. ”
"Good!"
Lin Ming took out a jade slip and recorded all the information in his mind. Then, he and Xiao Moxian left the Secret Heaven …
……………….
100,000 miles southeast of Divine Rune City, there was a remote mountain. People rarely visited this mountain, and deep in the valley was a lake that stretched for ten miles, named Star Lake.
When night falls every night, Star Lake will be filled with the night breeze. The reflection of starlight would illuminate the lake, making it seem like a stretch of liquid silver, beautiful to the eyes.
On one side of Star Lake was an ancient castle.
The castle was built with obsidian, and has stood here for 100,000 years. A portion of the castle stretches into the lake, leaving black reflections on the surface. Seeing this black shadow, one felt peace and tranquility.
However, no one imagined that such a beautiful and amazing place was actually the darkest nest of evil …
Inside the castle, there was a completely enclosed space. The floor is made of pale red tiles and the walls are dark gray. Pill furnaces and divine runic tables were scattered everywhere, making it seem messy and chaotic.
On this stone table and on the wall, there was a black stain. These stains are left behind by dried blood.
In the center of this space, there was a row of metal frames, dozens of them altogether. But, what was surprising was that on each metal frame, there was a young girl tied up.
These young girls were dressed in rags and some were even naked. The oldest among them were in their twenties, and some were even 16-17 years old. The youngest among them looked to be around 11-12, with some 13-14 year olds placed all over.
Every girl is covered with scars. These scars were found on their neck, thighs, chest, abdomen, and wrists. There were knife wounds, scratches, and even bite marks.
Some injuries were intentionally inflicted, and some wounds appeared to be specially designed to bleed.
After suffering for a long time, all of these girls were in the depths of despair, their eyes devoid of light, like dying embers. If it wasn't for their weak heart rate and breathing, one might think that they were dead.
Even though they had been tortured under such circumstances, one could still be the beauty hiding behind dirty faces and disheveled hair. It seems clear that this was once a proud beauty of various races.
There were humans, monsters, demons, and even saints!
In fact, not only were they beautiful from various races, but there were also among them who had relatively high martial talent! Some have special physiques, lineage variations, or dantian variations.
Some girls are martial artists. There were people in the Xiantian realm, and even some in the Revolving Core realm.
But now, their cultivation had been sealed; they were no different from ordinary mortal girls.
If one were to send these girls to great influence, then even though they might not be peak geniuses, they would still have to be inner court disciples. If one were to raise them with sufficient effort, then there was a high chance that they would reach the heavenly God realm in the future!
But now, all that is impossible. Their lives will be buried in a terrible and desperate castle.
Some of these people have been kidnapped, and some have been bought as slaves.
Of them, most were humans who had never cultivated before. They are unable to endure inhumane torture. Without a doubt, they would die from suffering in just a few months.
But those who planted have been trapped in this castle for several years. After being tortured day and night for several years, the average person will suffer from a mental disorder or die. However, the ruler of this castle was an alchemist, and with all sorts of magic pills and medicines, the desire to die was almost impossible. This castle master would even use dangerous pills to increase the cultivation limits of these girls, dig up their life potential and then steal them.
What awaited them was endless suffering and pain for a lifetime. Only when their essence energy and blood vitality were sucked dry, only when their youth and strength faded would they be left behind and buried in the back garden of the castle. It seems that due to the presence of their skeletons, the flowers in the back garden bloom especially brightly.
At this moment, the space barrier of this hidden space suddenly shook violently. The roar of a man resounded in it!
"Junk! Rubbish thing! Fuck everybody! ”
Bang out!
With an explosive sound, something seemed to explode. The stone tables were flipped and the pill furnaces were thrown away, bouncing everywhere. A pale man with grayish-white hair rushed in like a wild beast.
This man was wearing a tattered robe and he looked middle-aged, but, there was no trace of blood on his face and a faint death aura permeated all over his body.
This meant that his life was nearing its end.
“I failed, I failed again! Life Lifting Pills, how many times have I failed !? ”The man's eyes were blood red, as if he was going crazy! He was a spiritas, but the faint soul light that symbolized the soul race had disappeared. This is a sign that the flames of his life have diminished and his life is nearing its end.
He dreamed of refining the Eternity Pills of Endless Life. For this pill, it had been refined for 10,000 years. He thought that he would never successfully complete the refining of this pill before he died, so in the past few hundred years, he had refined an Undying Life Lifting Pill of lesser quality. He wanted to extend his life, even if it was only a few hundred years old!
