Martial research master - Chapter 389: Practicing in the hell-plane-5
The soul scourge process began and the person screamed at the top of his lungs. It was one of the most painful processes in the world, and Li Meng was aware of the implications. He knew that the person would no longer be normal after this process.
Li Meng tasked his avatars to prepare for disposing of the body once the task was completed. The information extraction process was incredibly brutal and taxing on the target’s soul. The man was screaming on top of his lungs, but Li Meng had prearranged a formation to hold in the voices.
The process took a good 3 minutes to be over, and the man had completely lost consciousness with his soul being full of cracks. Li Meng proceeded to check his belongings and emptied his storage rings.
Within there was a reason why Li Meng didn’t kill the guy instantly. It was what the man called a life-plaque.
“That seems to be a life-plaque. It is used by some forces to keep dibs on their members. You see the life-plaques color changes according to the user’s current situation. Since there is no bodily harm, there is no physical change within the plaque.”
“But the color of the plaque seems to have changed to a much dimmer shade. That is the indication that the soul of the cultivator is bound to get weaker.”
“Will it alert the force he belongs to? He called it the Body-Devil fort.” Li Meng said.
“Well, the color would have alerted anyone with knowledge of the plaque. You better kill him and get out.” The Keeper said.
“Well, that is not such a good idea. You see, this man seems to be the son of a grand-elder within that force, and guess what the cultivation of the elder is?”
“No guesses from my side.” The Keeper said.
“He is a Nether-Monarch or a Qi Monarch in terms of our world.”
” Lay a good hiding formation and rush out as fast as you can. Did you get any good information?” The Keeper asked.
” I got a lot of information. for starters, this world is called Hunyuna Hell.” Li Meng proceeded to tell the keeper about all the information he gained from the boy. He then lays a good hiding formation and robs the man blind before putting everything into the Crimson-Lord artifact and rushing out.
” What did you learn about the place we are going to?” The Keeper asked.
” According to my estimation, the place you are talking about is a famous cultivation area around here called the Hun house’s Nether-spring stage. It is a cultivation ground that I am being used by many people to improve their cultivation. The cost of entering the ground seems to be 1 Hell-shard of an intermediate kind.”
“Fortunately, this brat seems to be extremely rich. he has a lot of intermediate and advanced shards within his ring. We wouldn’t have a problem while entering the place. What do you suggest for our camouflage?” Li Meng asked.
‘Well, you should only use your hell-energy during the whole trip to the cultivation ground. Your art is related to hell-energy so even if they detect it, they will just see you as a junior from another force who have come here to train.”
“I want to remind you that Chaos laws provide you with the perfect camouflage as you can replicate the energy of this world and manifest your laws. Hence, you are officially a Nether-King level powerhouse.”
“Since we don’t have any sort of equipment or artifacts from the Hell world, we are not going to use any kind of artifact beyond the Qi general level, as its energy would be detected by the people here.”
“You will be using normal clothes to have an attire that covers your entire body. Since we have gained a lot of information about the world, we shouldn’t have a problem mixing into the crowd. Also, all your avatars will be going in at different time intervals.”
“Make sure that no one can make the connection between them.”
“I hope the number of shards is enough to train in the place for a good amount of time. Based on my estimation, we can get around 1 day to train within the Netherworld spring if we choose the lowest grade room.”
” Choose the lowest grade one, and leave the rest to me.” The Keeper said,
The four avatars immediately changed their attire and energy signature. if someone was to see them now, they wouldn’t be able to distinguish them from other residents of this world. Once the attire was formulated, all the avatars rushed into the city.
The huge crowd gathered within the city to access the cultivation ground helped the four people to blend in easily. Before going into the cultivation ground, Li Meng and the avatars spread to collect information, the general practices and some garments from the stores.
Once everything was ready, the four people went towards the huge manor that resided in the middle of the city. The Hun-Manor was shining in its vast splendor, as people flocked in and out in large numbers.
……………………………………..
The location where Li Meng set up the hidden formation. A group of cultivators landed on the spot and one of them waved his hands, destroying the formation completely. The view of a naked man lying on the ground met their eyes.
The man in the middle rushed out and lifted the man in his arms and began injecting his Qi.
“Who the hell did this to my son?” The man screamed with rage.
“It appears as if he was robbed.” The man beside him said. ” But the lack of physical injuries suggests that it was a soul cultivator. Please check his soul.”
When the man checked his son’s soul, he found it riddled with crack.
“Bastard. find the son of the bitch who did this to him. I will tear him limb from limb, and torture him until he begs me for death. No one can get out unscathed after hurting my son.” The man’s face was covered with misery.
He immediately picked up his son and rushed towards the nearest doctor, leaving the group with the task to find the culprit.
