Abyssal Distortion Files

"Phew..."

The black mist before me slowly dissipated, the wriggling monsters in the dark room disappeared, and the beautiful woman, Qi Youluo, was still sitting on the chair with her pipe.

"Phew..."

Purple smoke gently puffed from her red lips, "Congratulations, child, you have become my Mithras."

"From now on, I am your Sect Master, remember to offer tribute regularly."

Coming back to his senses, Zhou Mo shook his head constantly, as if he hadn't recovered from the aftermath of what had just happened, "Offer... tribute?"

Qi Youluo looked at Zhou Mo, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, using the Sect Master's abilities is not without a price."

"In addition to the standard contract, the Sect Master may also ask you to do some things, such as offering sacrifices, or killing a Mithras."

"And what I want you to do is to offer tribute regularly, on a monthly basis, offering a naturally deceased soul each month."

Zhou Mo didn't understand, "What is the definition of a naturally deceased soul?"

Qi Youluo exhaled another puff of purple smoke, "It cannot be killed by others, it cannot be an accidental death, it cannot be a death from illness, it cannot have suffered trauma during its lifetime, the soul must be complete, and it must die naturally after exhausting its lifespan."

What harsh conditions...

"If it's a time of war, I'm afraid you'll never find such a soul," Zhou Mo said weakly from the side.

Qi Youluo looked at Zhou Mo, "It's not a time of war now, your country is very safe, it's not difficult to find such a soul."

"Needless to say, I bet you will ask what the Sect Master will do after receiving the tribute."

"It's actually very simple, in your words, it's practicing cultivation, advancing to the deeper depths of the sea, and reaching a deeper level."

"I am currently at the third level, the Lightless Grade, and the power you obtained from me is currently at the first level, the Light Grade."

Zhou Mo looked at his hands, "What level is the Light Grade approximately?"

"The weakest level, but it's more than enough to kill a few ordinary people," Qi Youluo said, pointing with her pipe to the medicine bottle on the counter.

"As your Sect Master, I can provide you with a unique path to advancement."

"See that bottle of elixir? It is made from flowers nurtured by the souls of the dead, taking it can help you break through."

"And as long as you offer me souls, you can exchange them for this kind of elixir from me, but be careful, this part of the soul must be calculated separately from the souls offered as tribute."

Zhou Mo picked up the small green bottle on the counter, it looked no different, and it just smelled fragrant.

"As long as I drink this thing, it will allow me to break through the Light Grade?"

"Cough cough cough...!"

Qi Youluo seemed to be choked, and directly put down her pipe, "What are you thinking, one bottle of elixir will allow you to reach the Light Grade from a mortal body, are you crazy?"

"The elixir is just an aid, it can help you quickly strengthen your soul and body, and accelerate your cultivation process, it is not some kind of magical pill that allows you to break through a major stage."

"Also, you must remember that the power given to you by the Sect Master and your own power are completely two different things."

"The Sect Master can give you magical abilities, but this has nothing to do with your mortal body."

"The meaning of letting you cultivate yourself is because my abilities are inseparable from mental strength, therefore only when your own mental strength is strong can I give you more powerful abilities."

Zhou Mo accepted the elixir, "I understand, Sect Master, do you have anything else to tell me?"

Qi Youluo thought for a moment.

"Hmm... not for now."

Zhou Mo nodded, "Then I'll leave, Sect Master, I'll be back in a month."

"Wait."

He had just stepped out the door when Qi Youluo stopped him.

The corner of Zhou Mo's mouth twitched, and he turned his head stiffly, "Sect Master, do you... have anything else?"

Qi Youluo's amber pupils flickered, "I smell a scent, very ancient, and very heavy, like rusty iron dug out from the depths of the earth."

"There are other Mithras nearby."

Other Mithras?

Qi Youluo looked at Zhou Mo, "Take me to meet the Sect Master behind him."

"Don't be afraid, there is an aura of death nearby, try to use your abilities to make them work for you, this is just right to help you quickly master the Gravedigger authority."

"Is it really necessary to go?"

Zhou Mo really didn't want to get involved, but Qi Youluo didn't give him what he wanted.

"This is the master's task~"

......

Outside, Chen Ye was still leisurely drinking tea.

"Hello, please refill my pot."

「Master, this is the seventh pot」

「Don't you want to go to the toilet?」

Chen Ye dismissed it with disdain, "It's a pity you call yourself an encyclopedia, don't you know that Tai Sui consumes physical energy?"

"Water or food, these things will be instantly broken down into energy in my body, without leaving even a bit of residue."

「Oh~」

「I see」

「Then master, can we now confirm that matter?」

「Such creations as the Ancient Pioneers and the Sacred Mother of Chongling exist in fixed locations, as long as humans don't provoke them, they won't harm humans.」

「If it follows this pattern, then we can avoid the chaos caused by the increase in creations.」

Chen Ye gently blew on the freshly poured tea, "I did think of something, you said, if we lead the Throat of the Underworld to the Sacred Mother of Chongling..."

「You mean, use 'immobile creations' to destroy 'mobile creations'?」

"That's right."

「I don't think it's appropriate」

「Once the gathering point of a fixed creation is destroyed, it is very likely to trigger a runaway and loss of control, leaving its original location, which will cause even greater disasters.」

This does make sense, after all, Chen Ye wouldn't dare say for sure or absolutely about things that haven't been verified.

「Master, Zhou Mo is out」

Hearing the words of the Book of the Abyss, Chen Ye turned his head, only to find that Zhou Mo seemed to be looking for something around him.

Then, he rushed to the suburbs without looking back.

「Uh... master」

「This doesn't seem to be what you said, huh?」

"Shut up."

Chen Ye's eyes narrowed as he looked at the No. 19 Affiliated Hospital, the Sacred Mother of Chongling must have said something to Zhou Mo, otherwise he wouldn't be so clear about his goal.

Thinking of this, a large group of masked men in black suddenly walked out of the alleys on both sides of the street, those were all Chen Ye's legion clones.

The reason for wearing masks is because they all look exactly the same, like clones.

"Follow Zhou Mo."

Hearing the sound, a group of men in black scattered and rushed out.

「What about us, master?」

"Go meet the Sacred Mother of Chongling."

After saying that, Chen Ye went directly downstairs, and after paying for the tea by scanning the QR code, he walked into the No. 19 Affiliated Hospital without looking back.

「Master, I don't understand」

「Why did you pay?」

"Why not pay, this store is neither opened by me nor has it provoked me?"

「Hiss... I see, okay then」

Chen Ye muttered to himself inwardly, but didn't notice that a middle-aged woman had been watching him when he paid.

The little boy next to the middle-aged woman tugged at the woman's hand.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

The middle-aged woman came back to her senses, only to realize that her eyes were already tearful, "No, it's nothing... it's just that Mom thought of someone."
