Chapter 8
Corpse Map Upgraded
“Young Master, what is Young Master Lin trying to do?”
After Lin Wudao’s figure disappeared, Tushan Ling Er finally came in front of Jun Qianjin and asked curiously.
There was still a trace of shock in his eyes.
The tragic scene of Jiang Wentian and Lin Wudao’s crazy actions left a deep impression on her.
“He killed his way into the Jiang Clan all by himself!”
“He also killed three guardians in the Wheel of Life realm belonging to the Jiang Clan. Then, he posted the message on the Heavenly Treasure Mirror to attract Jiang Qingxue’s return,” Jun Qianmo said indifferently.
What?
To attract Jiang Qingxue’s return?
Hearing this, Tushan Ling Er opened her eyes wide.
“Young Master, you mean Young Master Lin still wants to kill Jiang Qingxue?”
“You’re not too bad with your guesses!”
“Lin Wudao’s real motive was Jiang Qingxue. So he attacked the Jiang Clan and released the news on the Heavenly Treasure Mirror.”
“But aren’t they engaged? Why would Young Master Lin want to kill her?”
The little girl was confused.
She could not understand why Lin Wudao would do that.
Jun Qianmo, however, smiled mysteriously.
“Perhaps, there is an irreconcilable hatred between them.”
Afterward, he ignored Tushan Ling Er’s bewilderment and continued enjoying his tea.
…
On the other hand, Lin Wudao had already dragged Jiang Wentian back to Worriless Manor.
“Young Master, you’re back?”
“This is… the patriarch of the Jiang Clan?”
Han Qingshan greeted Lin Wudao when he saw him.
However, the tragic figure on the ground soon attracted his eyes. When he saw it was Jiang Wentian, his eyes widened.
“Young Master, what’s going on? The Jiang Clan’s head, he’s…”
“I have a grudge against the Jiang Clan!”
“Keep a close eye on him. He will die in three days.”
Bang!
Lin Wudao lifted his hand and threw Jiang Wentian on the ground. Then he left without looking back.
Seeing this, Han Qingshan was still in a state of shock.
It was not until Jiang Wentian’s crazy roar that he finally came to his senses.
“Patriarch Jiang, you and the Young Master should have a good chat.”
“Bah!”
“He killed three of our Jiang Clan’s guardians. Don’t tell me you don’t know?”
What?
Lin Wudao killed the three great guardians of the Jiang Clan?
Han Qingshan was stunned.
As far as he knew, the Jiang Clan’s guardians were fifth-level masters, but they were killed by Lin Wudao alone.
When did he become so powerful?
“Could it be that Young Master obtained some good fortune in the Divine Ruins?”
At the thought of this, Han Qingshan’s spirits were lifted!
“Patriarch Jiang, I’ve watched the Young Master grow up, so I know his temper and nature very well. If the Jiang Clan hadn’t done anything to him, he wouldn’t have acted this way.”
“Hmph, that’s simply a bunch of nonsense!”
“In what way did my Jiang Clan let him down? I wouldn’t have agreed to this marriage if I had known he was such a heartless person. When Qingxue returns, I’ll make sure you all die without a proper burial.”
“The Taixuan Sect is not something Lin Wudao can fight against!” Jiang Wentian roared ferociously.
His eyes were filled with endless hatred!
Upon hearing this, Han Qingshan’s heart shook!
The Taixuan Sect was a great power in the land of Jiuzhou. Their foundation and strength were compelling. If they supported the Jiang Clan, they would be in trouble.
“Young Master is still too impulsive!”
“Now that things have come to this, I can only go to the Demon Subduing Division to lie low for a while.”
He calculated in his heart.
He hit Jiang Wentian with his palm, crippling all his cultivation and strength. Then, he dragged Jiang Wentian away like a dead dog.
“Han Qingshan, how dare you treat me like this?”
“I curse you, curse you and Lin Wudao to die a terrible death!”
A crazy roar shook the sky.
Han Qingshan ignored him and locked Jiang Wentian up with an iron chain. To prevent him from escaping, he even broke his legs.
After ensuring that everything was in place, he returned to his room.
He dug out an ancient bronze chest after digging three feet into the ground. Then, he carried it and walked toward Lin Wudao’s room.
…
Lin Wudao had heard Jiang Wentian’s miserable shrieks.
However, he did not care!
Swish!
With a flip of his hand, he took out the corpse map and read it.
Although the news had already been posted on the Heavenly Treasure Mirror, it would still take some time for Jiang Qingxue to return to Qing Yuan Ancient City.
Lin Wudao wanted to take this opportunity to study the corpse map and see if there were any other corpses nearby.
[ Ding dong! ]
[ The host’s cultivation has reached the eighth stage of the Divine Transformation realm. Therefore, the corpse map will be updated! ]
[ Updating in progress… ]
[ Ding! Update successful! ]
[ From today onwards, the search range of the corpse map will cover the entire Jiuzhou region. When the host’s luck value reaches a certain amount, the nearest corpse hiding place will be unlocked automatically. ]
[ The corpse unlocked by the corpse map will be a powerful one! Once the host collects the corpse, treasures will arrive! ]
[ Please consult the system for more details. ]
…
Whoosh!
A beam of divine light streaked across, and the corpse map underwent a tremendous change.
First of all, the search area had expanded. Then, many red human-shaped marks appeared on the corpse map immediately after.
These marks were the burial sites of powerhouses!
However, the locations marked on the corpse map were blurry, as if fog covered them.
Furthermore, to Lin Wudao’s surprise, each corpse hiding spot was marked with a number.
[ Character: Lu Cangming ]
[ Identity: Xuantian Sect’s supreme elder from 800 years ago ]
[ Cultivation: Perfection of Deva realm ]
[ Location of Burial: Unknown ]
[ Status: Dead ]
[ Unlock: 100000 Fate Energy ]
…

[ Identity: One of the eight Academy seats of the True Dragon Academy ]
[ Cultivation: Perfection of Innate Sky Realm ]
[ location of Burial: Unknown ]
[ Status: Dead ]
[ Unlock: 500000 Fate Energy ]
…
Information about the locations where the corpses were hidden appeared in his eyes!
After reading it, Lin Wudao fell silent.
The locations of the powerhouses’ corpses marked on the corpse map were unclear. Therefore, he had to satisfy the corresponding Fate Energy value to obtain detailed information.
This was the only way to unlock it!
“System, what is Fate Energy?”
“Ding! The so-called Fate Energy value refers to the luck that the host possesses. After being materialized by the system, it will be presented as a numerical value.”
“When the host’s luck reaches the standard, the corresponding corpse hiding place can be unlocked.”
“Collecting the corpses of the powerhouses will reward you with treasures!”
The system explained.
Wow.
Lin Wudao was surprised!
“How much Fate Energy do I have now? Also, How do I obtain Fate Energy?”
“Ding dong!”
“The host’s current Fate Energy is 1000 points!”
“There are many ways to obtain Fate Energy. The details are as follows:”
1. An increase in the host’s cultivation!
2. A significant change in the host’s identity and status!
3. Join a faction and obtain the blessing of fate!
4. Establish a force and expand the territory!
5. Sacrifice all kinds of treasures!
6. Forcefully plundering others’ Fate Energies to strengthen oneself!
…
Whoosh!
A panel appeared in front of Lin Wudao, recording the various channels and methods to obtain Fate Energy.
“It’s not easy…”
He sighed.
[ There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world! ]
[ If you want to gain something, you must give something in return! ]
[ The system’s existence is only to assist the host in cultivating and becoming more powerful. It’s only a guiding role. The rest still depends on the host’s efforts. ]
[ The only way is to possess great power! ]
…
In his mind, the system’s warning rang.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded.
The system’s philosophy was in line with his!
He also believed in relying on his power. Conversely, reliance on external things was not the right way!
“Looks like I have to find a way to earn some Fate Energy value,” he murmured.
Lin Wudao began to think.
“Thump, thump, thump…”
It was also at this moment that someone knocked on his door.
Soon after, Han Qingshan walked in with a bronze chest in his arms.
