"But I can't guarantee that you'll be able to learn it!" Tong Gua added after the two agreed.
Mo Zi and Little Pomelo nodded immediately.
"Alright, Master Tong Gua!"
"Let me tell you about the origin of the Cursed Clan first."
"The Cursed Clan wasn't originally part of the original race in the Land of Beiqi. They migrated here from Hell. It seems that they chose the wrong side during the battle for His Excellency. After the new His Excellency was born, they migrated to Beiqi to avoid being exterminated."
"At that time, the situation in Beiqi was very unstable. There were also two major forces competing for the throne of His Excellency."
"Speaking of which, this clan is quite miserable. In order to gain a foothold in Beiqi, they chose to rely on one of the two forces after evaluating their strength. However, they chose the wrong team. The force they relied on was defeated in the end, and almost all of them were wiped out. By the way, the leader of the other force was Lu Yan, the current King of Beiqi who had just passed away. "
Tong Gua sighed in his heart when he thought of the King of Beiqi who treated him well.
"Was the Cursed Clan annihilated too?" the two of them asked curiously.
"En, logically speaking, they should have been wiped out, but that's not necessarily the case. It's said that there were a few people who luckily survived and escaped to the Arctic Abyss together with the defeated forces. Of course, I'm not sure if it's true or not, because I was cultivating a divine technique during that period of time and went into seclusion for a long time."
"The Arctic Abyss?" the two of them immediately opened the map and pulled it to the south.
However, since they had never been there before, the map only showed the river under the Burial Ground. The area below was covered by the map's fog.
"So, if you really want to learn the abilities of the Cursed Clan, you have to ask them. If there are any survivors, they must have escaped to the Arctic Abyss. Otherwise, they won't be able to stay in other areas of Beiqi."
"However, I have to remind you that the Arctic Abyss is considered a forbidden place in Beiqi. This place is very strange. It's located on top of a geothermal volcano, but the glaciers haven't melted for hundreds of thousands of years. Instead, it's covered in snow all year round."
"Moreover, it's said that the birth of the Arctic Abyss is related to the Ice Snow Clan, a force under the first King of Beiqi. In short, it's not a good place. Besides, even if those defeated forces really hide in the Arctic Abyss, there's a high chance that they'll be destroyed by the Ice Snow Clan."
"So, you guys should think about it carefully. Since you guys are immortal anyway, it's okay to go and have some fun. However, if you meet the Ice Snow Clan, don't provoke them. If their leader is still alive, he might have reached the Ghost Emperor Realm. If he's really angry, he might overturn the whole of Beiqi."
"I've told you everything I know. Do you have any thoughts?" Tong Gua looked at the two of them and asked.
"Let's go!"
Tong Gua waved his hand when he saw their stubborn attitude. He seemed to be afraid that they would trouble him again if they could not find the Cursed Clan.
"If you really can't find it, don't be discouraged. Once you're strong enough, you can head to the Hell Region to take a look. There are many races there that possess the power of the Hell Dao."
Both of them nodded again. After bowing respectfully to Tong Gua, they turned to the door and climbed out through the window.
Tong Gua was speechless.
"That's not right. How did they know that I know the origin of the Cursed Clan?" Tong Gua covered his crotch and felt that something was not right.
…
In the outside world, the players' activities were still going on.
At this time, millions of players suddenly landed on the outskirts of the North Rocks through teleportation. They then advanced toward the interior of the North Rocks.
Faced with the crazy influx of players, the Rock Ghost King's heart skipped a beat. He quickly stopped his subordinates who were ready to launch an attack.
"Calm down. Let them be crazy for a while. They'll leave soon."
Just as the Rock Ghost King had said, the players surrounded an area in a frenzy for a while before they began to retreat while giggling.
"Lord Rock Ghost King, what kind of race are these new forces? Why haven't we seen them before?" the iron zombie commander below could not help but ask curiously.
A trace of doubt flashed in the Rock Ghost King's eyes. He then turned to look at the Soul Liberating Envoy, Du Yan.
"You're the first to come into contact with them. Do you know their origin?"
Upon hearing this, Du Yan respectfully said to the Rock Ghost King,
"Lord Rock Ghost King, this force appeared in the Mansion of the Dead inexplicably after the death of the King of Beiqi. I don't know their origin."
Upon hearing Du Yan's words, the Rock Ghost King became even more confused.
How could the Ghost Kings not know that such a huge force had arrived in Beiqi in advance?
The Land of Beiqi could only be entered through four areas. His own North Rocks, the Liuli in the East, the Barren Grassland in the West, and the Arctic Abyss in the South.
First of all, the Arctic Abyss could definitely be excluded. After all, no one could pass through that area. How could his own North Rocks not notice the invasion of such a huge number of creatures? Naturally, he had to exclude them as well.
The Liuli in the East was where Cha Na was stationed. If they really came from the East Sea, Cha Na would be their first opponent. How could they first occupy the Mansion of the Dead and then destroy Cha Na?
If that was the case, this force was most likely coming from the side of the Barren Grassland.
However, the Rock Ghost King still felt that something was amiss.
This was because he had several encounters with these creatures and found that the abilities they mastered were obviously from Beiqi.
The Rune Warriors, the Sun Chasing Archers, the Naraka Realm of the Cursed Clan, and so on were all abilities mastered by the forces that once existed in Beiqi. It would be too much of a coincidence if these creatures came from the outside world.
As he pondered, the Rock Ghost King's expression suddenly changed.
"Du Yan, do you remember that the King of Beiqi once said that he would one day rule over the entire Underworld?"
Upon hearing this, Du Yan cupped his hands, "Lord Rock Ghost King, I did hear that from the King of Beiqi."
"Then do you remember that the King of Beiqi used to consecrate the souls of all the soldiers above the Ghost General level and the souls of the enemy generals that we killed in the Valiant Spirit Palace?"
"I do. The King of Beiqi said that it was to let the future generations remember these former powerhouses."
At this moment, the Rock Ghost King's expression became extremely solemn.
Because he remembered something very important.
It seemed that the abilities mastered by the players were related to the soldiers who had died and were consecrated in the Valiant Spirit Palace.
As he thought about this, the Rock Ghost King suddenly had a guess.
It was highly likely that this new force of Beiqi was related to the deceased King of Beiqi. Perhaps it was a secret force that the King of Beiqi had secretly created to realize his ambition to rule over the Underworld.
Thinking of this, the Rock Ghost King suddenly had a thought.
That was, if this force was really the King of Beiqi's secret weapon, could he control it or had a way to control it?
Because he did not believe that the King of Beiqi would create a force that he could not control, there must be a way to ensure that the secret weapon would not betray him.
