The Cursed Demon Pool, First Encounter with Leng Qing
Chapter 72 The Cursed Demon Pool, First Encounter with Leng Qing
After dealing with the Black Vatican members, Ling Tianyu began his enjoyable looting of the corpses.
"So poor!"
Ling Tianyu curled his lip in disdain. Among these people, only the gray-robed priest had a defensive magic artifact. As for the others... let's not even talk about them.
I bet those members of the Black Vatican would have crawled out of hell and cursed him after hearing Ling Tianyu's disdain. Do you think everyone kills demons like you slaughtering dogs?
Ahem, just kidding!
After all, why would a young master from a noble family, who is covered in precious magical artifacts, give up his comfortable life as a rich young master or princess to join the Black Church as a lackey?
They're not stupid. What do they want by associating with such an evil organization? Do they want to become traitors and collude with demons, be hunted down by the Inquisition? Or do they want to become like Yu Ang, neither human nor ghost?
The majority of the Black Vatican's instructors are developed into ordinary people like Mo Jiaxing, who live in poverty and struggle at the bottom of society. They are weak, ignorant, and easily brainwashed and controlled.
Ling Tianyu's main purpose was not the magical artifacts on the Black Church members. Don't forget that the bounties for Black Church members are quite substantial. Not to mention anything else, the title of just a gray-robed priest is worth nine million, not even counting the other black-robed cult members! Adding them together, it's probably over ten million!
If there are high-ranking blue-robed deacons, their head count will start at a small goal! If it's a Tiger-Jin Grand Deacon like Mu He, breaking three hundred million is not impossible!
Why bother killing demons then?
It's not that we can't afford to kill demons, but that the Black Vatican is more cost-effective!
Calming his excited heart, Ling Tianyu shifted his gaze to the depths of the abandoned factory. The dark depths, like the gaping maw of a giant beast, exuded an astonishing aura of curse and dark power, and it seemed as if one could be completely immersed in them if one was not careful.
Further in, a dark pool with a radius of several meters came into view, and the aura of the curse from before originated from here.
This is the Black Church's cursed pool, also known as the Ancestral Pool. It is the place where the Black Church refines black beast demons. Throwing a living person in it and then performing a special curse ritual will turn them into a disgusting, deformed demon!
Even more disgusting is that once you fall into the cursed pool, even if you choose to commit suicide, your soul will still be bound, truly unable to live or die.
Since the establishment of the Black Vatican, countless ordinary people have experienced such vicious and inhumane rituals!
However, Ling Tianyu's current focus is not on this...
According to the gray-robed priest from the Black Vatican, this magic pool is extremely precious, so it must have been infused with a lot of potent ingredients.
Can't say...
A glint of light flashed in Ling Tianyu's eyes. He keenly realized that this could very well be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
To increase the power of curse-type attacks, besides advancing one's mental strength, there are other methods. One of them is [cursed matter].
[Cursed Matter] Theoretically, it should belong to the dark category. It is rich in variety, and the effects and abilities of different types of cursed matter vary greatly. If used well, it can be invincible among mages of the same level and can even affect higher-level mages. If used poorly, it may even reduce the power of curse magic, which is not worth the loss.
However, it would be unreasonable for the Black Vatican to fail to extract anything good from the cursed magic pool that they have so carefully prepared!
Make a note of this location, and ask the court for help in refining it later; there should be a pleasant surprise.
Ling Tianyu's mind settled, and he set off to leave. After all, the cursed aura of this place, combined with the unique stench of the Black Beast Demon, made it undesirable for any normal person to linger.
Of course, perhaps those disgusting guys in the Black Vatican would like this taste.
…………
Ling Tianyu rushed back to the safe zone, his journey marked by sparks and lightning.
"Once you reach a higher rank, you absolutely must awaken a summoning ability and get a mount. Relying on your own two legs is never as good as riding a four-legged beast!"
Ling Tianyu made up his mind and then stepped into the safety barrier.
After the Winged Wolf was defeated, the crisis in Bo City could be said to have passed. The atmosphere within the safety barrier had obviously eased, and many people even had the leisure to joke around.
Some people are unlucky; their family members' names are added to the death list...
It can only be said that people's joys and sorrows are not shared...
Ling Tianyu wasn't interested in these unrelated people and instead searched for acquaintances among the crowd.
Looking up, Ling Tianyu saw two figures embracing each other in the distance. They seemed somewhat familiar. Upon closer inspection, he realized who they were: Mo Fan and Zhou Min!
Zhou Min's delicate face usually carries a resolute expression, rarely revealing such a soft and vulnerable look. Especially with a trace of tears around her beautiful eyes, it's hard not to feel sorry for her.
Zhou Min's delicate body was completely nestled in Mo Fan's arms, trembling slightly.
Mo Fan also saw Ling Tianyu's handsome face at this moment, and his eyes lit up, but looking at the person in his arms, he shook his head and mouthed "sorry".
Ling Tianyu nodded, not wanting to disturb the two. At this moment, Zhou Min only needed Mo Fan to comfort her; Ling Tianyu going up would be of no use and could easily lead to misunderstandings.
…………
Upon seeing a familiar figure in a wheelchair ahead, Ling Tianyu's playful nature was aroused, and he unexpectedly covered the eyes of the beautiful woman in front of him.
"Guess who I am?"
"Brother Tianyu, is that right?"
Xinxia said rather bluntly.
"Tch, not fun!" Ling Tianyu pouted and complained.
"Tianyu, who's so childish, is cute too!" Xinxia covered her mouth and chuckled.
"What are you talking about? It's clearly childlike innocence!" Ling Tianyu retorted.
Her delicate nose twitched slightly as she smelled something and asked, "Brother Tianyu, you seem to have a strange smell!"
"Oh? I killed a few Black Vatican members before, so I might have accidentally picked up some of their scent." Ling Tianyu suddenly realized, no wonder the military mages had been looking at him strangely, as if they wanted to pin him to the ground the next moment.
As he spoke, Ling Tianyu deliberately moved a distance to the side.
"The Black Vatican?" Xin Xia grasped the key point. "Brother Tianyu, are you alright?"
"Don't worry, they're no match for me!" Ling Tianyu habitually reached out to rub Xin Xia's cheek, but then remembered that he must smell terrible, so his arm froze in mid-air and didn't fall.
"Brother Tianyu, no matter what you look like, I will never dislike you!" Xinxia took the initiative to reach out her fair and delicate arm, grabbed Ling Tianyu, and said firmly.
Ling Tianyu felt a warmth in his heart.
"You're Ling Tianyu?"
Suddenly, a clear, cold, and noble voice rang out behind Ling Tianyu.
"Sister Leng Qing!" Xin Xia called out in a clear voice.
"Leng Qing? It really is her!" This thought flashed through Ling Tianyu's mind. He turned his head and saw a mature and beautiful woman. A look of amazement appeared in his eyes.
The previous fleeting glance was too hasty, and now Ling Tianyu had the opportunity to carefully examine the beautiful woman in front of him.
Leng Qing was dressed in a uniform judge's uniform, with a hint of heroism in her eyes. Below, her long, slender legs, encased in black stockings, were visible, full and sexy.
She has a distinct temperament from Tang Yue, but they are both beautiful.
Leng Qing was slightly taken aback. Ling Tianyu's appearance was definitely outstanding. His face was delicate yet well-defined, unlike the sharp features of a soldier or the effeminate look of a pretty boy in the entertainment industry.
