Chapter 324: 179, 180. Great Power Clears the Field, Harvesting Immortality Peaches (Seeking Subscriptions)_4
About the time it would take to burn a stick of incense later, Su Keshi took another turn and suddenly saw the scenery change before his eyes: no longer a mountainous and forested area, but a vast wasteland...
Looking back, he could no longer see Yaochi Peak.
"We... We have already left Accumulating Thunder Mountain."
Su Keshi was ecstatic, though he began to worry that the Family Head would forcibly pull him back to Yin Residence.
As for his True Self, it was no big deal, this time he had ventured out with his True Self to explore Accumulating Thunder Mountain.
He looked at the six peaches in his arms and decided to secretly consume them and not return.
Just as he was thinking this, his gaze suddenly caught someone at a nearby crossroad who seemed to be spying.
Su Keshi frowned but immediately shifted his form and sidestepped them.
Normally, he would avoid these spies.
If absolutely necessary, he would have no choice but to act.
...
...
Several days later...
A small bird flew onto Song Cheng’s shoulder, anxiously saying, "Father, someone has escaped from the south side of Yaochi Peak, now heading towards Han State... the Yingui Association’s dead soldiers went to block them but were directly killed by that person. I only found out because I saw it..."
"What does that person look like?"
The bird landed and quickly sketched something.
Su Mengzhen glanced at it, then turned to look at Song Cheng and said, "It’s... Su Keshi."
The air turned silent momentarily, her pretty face grew angry as she said irritably, "He dares to betray the Su Family, I’ll drag him back to the Yin Residence!"
Shortly after, the two went to the Yin Residence.
Su Mengzhen approached the family’s Spirit Tablet for a "Soul Summoning."
However, after several attempts, Su Kemeng’s soul did not appear. Momentarily... Su Mengzhen couldn’t help but be startled, then said, "He must have acquired some treasure."
Song Cheng quickly observed and noticed that the "Yang Qi" of Yaochi Peak had greatly weakened.
The heat of midsummer had waned, turning into autumn; and the demon beasts that were originally confined began dispersing in all directions... all of this suggested that "something important must have been taken from Yaochi Peak."
Before they could catch their breath, the bird suddenly spoke again, "Father, there’s trouble again! There’s an abnormality in the canal; a whole section of the river has caught fire, and the surrounding area is enveloped with smoke, yet it’s cold smoke."
A canal?
The river catching fire?
Song Cheng instantly thought of the Drowning Ghost.
Could it be that the Drowning Ghost has completely merged with the Burnt Ghost and Ghost Hand, and is now continuing south?
With several thoughts settled, Song Cheng instinctively realized there were two urgent matters he needed to address:
One, lead people southward to pursue Su Keshi;
Two, go to the canal to check out the situation there.
Both matters were pressing.
As for Accumulating Thunder Mountain, it seemed there was no longer any reason to stay.
At this moment, Song Cheng finally understood the feeling of those bosses in the books he had read before his travel, who find that after long guarding, the treasure they coveted was stolen by some insignificant thief, only to be followed by more troubles...
However, he didn’t lose his temper, but quickly summoned Yan Muyi and Demon Subduing True Man, and had them quickly resolve the canal issue while he issued a "Killing Order" on behalf of Emperor Monarch Xuanwu.
The target————Su Keshi!!
...
...
The world was stirred in an instant.
If there were a godly perspective, one would notice that people who had been gathered around Accumulating Thunder Mountain dispersed in an instant, turning towards the south.
Of course, it wasn’t all dispersed; some watchers lingered here to monitor the subsequent changes, including Ting’s little bird and rabbit.
At Accumulating Thunder Mountain, where Yang Qi had declined, even the purple light had diminished a lot, and one day, suddenly, a relentless rain poured down under densely packed dark clouds...
A cute-looking rabbit with three mouthparts was holding an oiled paper umbrella, walking in front.
Under the umbrella was a rather delicate-looking little boy.
The rain went "patter, patter" as it fell on the umbrella surface, bouncing off and splashing onto the surrounding flowers and plants.
The little boy climbed the steps, venturing deeper into Accumulating Thunder Mountain, seemingly unnoticed by the watchers along the way.
Finally, he arrived at the foot of Yaochi Peak, sensed the changes in the surroundings, and smiled, "It really has weakened a lot." freewebnσvel.cѳm
After speaking, he turned to the rabbit mother holding the umbrella, "Mother, I didn’t deceive them. The Immortality Peaches here truly can prolong life and enhance strength... They indeed came and picked them."
The rabbit mother made a "sizzling" sound twice.
Rabbits cannot speak.
But the little boy didn’t intend to wait for a response; he casually stepped onto Yaochi Peak and continued with a smile, pointing here and there, "Hard to imagine, this is just a shell... But now, it’s the weakest time for this shell, and the perfect time for me..."
No sooner had his words fallen than he suddenly paused, and a foggy silhouette formed in the mist rising around the mountain.
A vague, ancient voice came through...
"Three thousand years... I finally awaited a Zhan.
If I hadn’t lured people away, making myself weak, how could you have come here?
Now is my weakest moment, isn’t it also your weakest moment?"
The little boy paused, then laughed, "That’s unfortunate, for I too used the canal to lead people away..."
He and the silhouette gazed at each other from afar, his expression beginning to twist, and for a moment, the surroundings also started to turn bizarre...
When ghosts die, they become Zhan.
How do they die?
It is the evil spirits that reincarnate.
And such evil spirits are not ordinary, but great evil spirits...
Thus, to successfully give birth to such evil spirits, one also needs a soul greatly distorted.
Rabbit mother, leopard father... as "Perfect" products of the Extreme Joy World, just right.
However, once a ghost becomes Zhan, although gaining infinite possibilities, it also acquires the body of an ordinary mortal.
How can such a terrifying soul be contained in the body of an ordinary mortal?
Therefore, a new shell is needed.
...
...
Of course, all these matters were still quite distant from Song Cheng at the time.
At that moment, he was earnestly hunting Su Keshi.
And three days later...
Su Keshi was directly captured.
He still had five Immortality Peaches in his arms.
Song Cheng took them all.
Afterward, while interrogating Su Keshi, he headed towards the canal.

Note: Some readers mentioned that the peach blossom crisp might be decent, I think it should be okay.
