Seeing the system notification that popped up, Lu Qingshan knew that he had activated his first faction.
According to his memory, there were many players who had activated Zhishou Tower's faction before the game entered the Shadow of the Hades version.
Zhishou Tower was not only a faction with great potential for development, but it was also worth his effort to gain favor and raise his status.
Zhishou Tower was also a very trustworthy faction in most situations.
In the war against the underworld, many Zhishou Tower cultivators had sacrificed their lives to protect the human race without hesitation.
Lu Qingshan saluted Jiang Rong and Dantai Qingrun and said coldly, "My lords, I'll take my leave and go … visit the Blood Corpse Enlightened Master!"
He had done all he could. What came next was not something a Qi Refinement cultivator like him could participate in.
However, he believed that since Zhishou Tower could carry the human race's banner in the Shadow of the Hades version and fight against Hades for an entire version, their abilities would not disappoint him.
Zhishou Tower had no mediocre people.
Now that I've given them such detailed information, I'm sure that Hell is going to suffer a huge loss this time.
Lu Qingshan excused himself and turned to leave. As soon as he left the room, he walked to the first floor. There was already a cultivator wearing a black robe standing at the top of the stairs.
"The Deputy Tower Master asked me to take you to the Warden to see the Blood Corpse Enlightened Master." The black-robed cultivator's tone was flat and emotionless.
"Please lead the way." Lu Qingshan nodded.
.....
Jiang Rong and Dantai Qingrun looked at each other. After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Rong asked, "Should we contact Warden Qi immediately?"
Tantai Qingrun shook his head: "There's no hurry, there's still time. Uncle Rong, you're a meditation cultivator and your escape technique is exquisite. Go to the location of the blood pool that Lu Qingshan mentioned and investigate it first to confirm whether what Lu Qingshan said is true or false."
Jiang Rong agreed. "Okay."
After hesitating for a few seconds, Jiang Rong asked, "Why do you think Lu Qingshan wants the Blood Corpse Enlightened Master?"
Dantai Qingrun's eyes were clear as she said slowly, "Maybe Lu Qingshan and you are the same kind of person. I can feel that when Lu Qingshan mentioned the Blood Corpse Enlightened Master, he was very murderous."
Swordsmen were best at killing. As a Golden Elixir Swordsman, Dantai Qingrun was very sensitive to murderous intent.
Since Dantai Qingrun said so, there was no doubt that the Blood Corpse Enlightened Master's life was the Blood Corpse enlightened Master.
"From his words, I can also feel his hatred for Hades. However … he's not the same as me." Jiang Rong was silent for a while and denied Dantai Qingrun's words. "He's not the same kind of person as me. The reason I hate Hades to the bone is mostly because of the beast riot that Hades instigated back then. The enmity of the extermination of my family is absolutely irreconcilable. However, I don't feel this kind of murderous intent mixed with personal feelings from Lu Qingshan.
On the contrary, it's more like pure hatred for Hades. "
A hundred years ago, Hades had once instigated a demon beast riot in Qingzhou.
The demon beasts under the control of Demonic Cultivators had unbridled attacked the human cities.
During that beast riot, two prefectures had been directly erased from the human territory.
One of those prefectures was Northwater City, where Jiang Rong lived.
At that time, because Jiang Rong wasn't in Northwater City, he was lucky enough to escape the massacre. However, all of his family members had been buried in this disaster. Not a single one of them had survived.
It was also because of this that Jiang Rong had chosen to join Zhishou Tower. For the sake of avenging Hades, he had spared no effort.
Jiang Rong frowned. "There's another reason for his murderous intent towards Hades. However, according to the information we've found, Lu Qingshan is only fifteen years old this year. All of his life's experiences are clear and traceable.
In the past fifteen years of his life, we simply didn't discover that he had the slightest bit of interaction with Hades. I can't figure out where his hatred for Hades came from, and I can't figure out where his information came from. "
Dantai Qingrun said unhurriedly, "Uncle Rong, according to what I know, not all of Lu Qingshan's experiences are traceable."
Jiang Rong seemed to have thought of something. "You're talking about the three months when Lu Qingshan disappeared because of the attack?"
Zhishou Tower didn't know what exactly happened during the three months when Lu Qingshan disappeared.
"Since Lu Qingshan has always been an ordinary person in the past fifteen years, then all of his mystical abilities should be attributed to the three months after he disappeared. I just don't know what happened during those three months that could make a person change so much," Dantai Qingrun said lightly, "I even suspect that he's still that Lu Qingshan."
"Possession?" Jiang Rong immediately understood what Dantai Qingrun meant.
Only possession could cause a person to change so thoroughly.
"The way he speaks doesn't sound like a fifteen-year-old boy at all. Moreover, he knows so much confidential information."
"[Possession] is a technique that only Nascent Soul cultivators can use. In other words, this Lu Qingshan might be a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
Dantai Qingrun nodded. "It's highly possible. However, our top priority now is to deal with what Lu Qingshan said about Hades's plot against Warden Qi. As for Lu Qingshan's identity, we'll investigate it properly after this matter is settled."
Jiang Rong naturally understood this point. "Alright, then I'll take action now. We'll go investigate the blood pool."
After deciding on the course of action, Jiang Rong didn't delay any further. She used the Smoke Gathering Technique and turned into a wisp of smoke, quickly leaving.
.....
The prison was where Zhishou Tower imprisoned Devil Cultivators.
Such an important place wouldn't be placed in the open.
In fact, the prison was hidden deep under the Origin Mountain Tower.
The black-robed cultivator led Lu Qingshan in a few more steps and finally stopped in front of a wall.
The black-robed cultivator made a few hand seals with his fingers. Then, a black, squarish spirit seal formed from spiritual power flew out of his hand and disappeared in front of him.
A hazy shadow appeared on the wall in front of him. Then, it gradually became clear, and a long tunnel leading downwards came into view.
The black-robed cultivator stepped in.
Lu Qingshan didn't suspect anything and followed the black-robed cultivator's footsteps.
The walls on both sides of the tunnel were made of bluestone and emitted a dim light.
After walking down for a while, the originally dim environment suddenly brightened.
This was a huge underground base built with the power of cultivators.
The Origin Mountain Tower on the surface was like a small corner of an iceberg above the water.
The true colossus had always been hidden deep underground.
This was also in line with Zhishou Tower's principle of keeping a low profile.
Lu Qingshan already knew about this, so he wasn't too surprised.
He also knew that the prison should be in the deepest part of this underground base.
"Follow me, don't look around." The black-robed cultivator's voice was cold.
Under the guidance of the black-robed cultivator, Lu Qingshan went straight into the depths of the underground base. Every once in a while, he would see a dark room. Along the way, he also met many cultivators in black robes.
Although the information obtained by the Heaven's Eye Technique was all question marks, Lu Qingshan clearly knew that each of these black-robed cultivators was at least a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
After walking for an unknown period of time, the air became a little turbid. Finally, two iron doors made of cold iron appeared in Lu Qingshan's vision.
"What's the matter?"
A prison cultivator with slightly turbid eyes stopped the two of them.
The black-robed cultivator was very respectful to the prison cultivator in front of him and handed over a jade pendant. "The Deputy Tower Master wants me to bring this person to meet the demonic cultivator, Perfected Blood Corpse, who was just captured today. He also ordered that the Perfected Blood Corpse be handed over to this person for him to deal with."
The prison cultivator took the jade pendant and probed it with his Divine Sense to verify the information in the jade pendant.
Not long after, the prison cultivator returned the jade pendant to the black-robed cultivator and stepped aside slightly to make way. "Go in."
The two iron doors opened silently, without the eerie grinding sound of the iron doors of the secular prison.
Under the guidance of the black-robed cultivator, Lu Qingshan quickly found the cell where the Perfected Blood Corpse was being held.
Through the cell's bars, Lu Qingshan looked at the pale-faced Perfected Blood Corpse inside.
Lu Qingshan sneered in his heart.
A day ago, he was still a material for the Perfected Blood Corpse to refine a corpse puppet.
A day later, the Perfected Blood Corpse's life was in his hands.
Situations in the world were so changeable.
