I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 537 - 389 Great Xia’s No.1 Good Disciple?

"Name." Yang Qingqing’s gaze was slightly cold, gripping the center of the scroll.

"Jiangshan Map." The middle-aged man wore a red hood and a red robe.

Yang Qingqing continued to ask, "What is the effect of this scroll?"

The man opened his mouth, seemingly a bit hesitant.

Yang Qingqing, rarely forceful, conveyed just one word: "Speak!"

The Jiangshan Map seemed intimidated and responded obediently, "It can encompass all creatures of heaven and earth, sealing them within the Jiangshan Map."

As one person and one painting communicated mentally, Rotten Master Qing also softly spoke, synchronizing information with Du Yu, Qingci, and the Shatang Tree.

Hearing the Artifact Spirit’s words, Du Yu couldn’t help but be moved: "This effect is quite similar to the Mountain and Sea Bell?"

Rotten Master Qing nodded lightly.

Up ahead, Yang Qingqing continued to ask, "Why did you attack us as soon as you were repaired?"

Jiangshan Map: "Unaware of the situation outside, I wanted to control you first before making further plans."

"Heh." Yang Qingqing let out a cold snort, "Did you learn this way of doing things from your former master? Who is your former master, from the Heart Slaying Garden?"

"The former master is named Jiangshan, from the Heart Slaying Garden, you..."

Yang Qingqing didn’t respond at all, continuing to ask, "Tell me, why, after reorganizing your body, do you still have attachments to this world?"

Jiangshan Map, overwhelmed, slightly bowed its head: "I don’t want... don’t want to perish yet."

Yang Qingqing nodded silently.

In fact, even before the fragments were pieced together, she had sensed this emotion while studying the scroll in her study.

Beneath the Demon Soul, the desire of the fragmented scroll had nowhere to hide in her eyes.

Asking such a question was nothing but to confirm once more.

This spiritual artifact was different from all the other spiritual artifacts she had encountered before.

Those spiritual artifacts, suffering through pain and torment, finally seeing the light of day again, all had their reasons for rebirth.

The Shadow Gu Tower, Mountain and Sea Bell, Jade Gourd, West Xia’s Flute, Spirit-Slaying Pestle, and even the Heaven-covering Robe. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

They had exerted so much effort for unfinished tasks, for the obsessions in their hearts.

Yet this Seven-foot Map of the Realm seemed to have no goal, just the most primal desire—to survive.

Of course, having this goal is not unjustifiable.

Yang Qingqing: "Are there any living beings in the world within the painting?"

Jiangshan Map: "..."

Yang Qingqing patiently waited for ten seconds, suddenly grabbed the Jiangshan Map, tossed it into the air, and commanded, "Qingci, tear it apart."

"Hiss..." Accompanied by a faint dragon chant, dense Water Demon Breath surged in waves.

Inside the Seven-foot Map of the Realm, the red-robed Artifact Spirit was shocked and horrified!

Apparently, he was truly grasped by Yang Qingqing at the Life Gate!

His red figure endlessly elongated, his hands desperately reaching for Yang Qingqing’s wrist: "There is! There is a Twin Tree!"

"Hmm?" Rotten Master Qing patted the Qingci Dragon’s claw, signaling it to calm down.

The seven-foot scroll slowly floated down, and Yang Qingqing raised her hand to catch the scroll, waving it in front of her to lay it out again on the leaf table.

From beginning to end, Yang Qingqing’s attitude was very forceful, different from her usual way of dealing with matters.

This left Du Yu somewhat puzzled.

Judging from the results, Master Qing’s medicine was very effective!

But she is usually very kind to all living creatures, why was she so cold and ruthless towards this scroll?

Could it be that she perceived this Artifact Spirit still had some malicious nature?

For example, towards the Imprisoned Race, a Demon Tamer’s love is useless, and suppression and enslavement are the only ways.

Du Yu quietly gazed at the woman’s back, only feeling that his Immortal Master was terrifying!

Majestic, forceful, with thunderous means!

If she were to display this side in daily life, Du Yu probably wouldn’t dare to make a single joke, let alone secretly take a photo...

"You just said, there is a Twin Tree inside the Jiangshan Map?"

Jiangshan Map, with a trace of fear in its eyes: "There was once, during the era when the old master lived, the Twin Tree gradually withered, and the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth became increasingly sparse.

The old master secretly transplanted a Twin Tree seedling here for cultivation."

Yang Qingqing: "Once was?"

"The Twin Tree only lived for a hundred years, for some reason, it has withered now." Jiangshan Map responded immediately.

Yang Qingqing first frowned slightly, then her hope was rekindled.

In fact, the Twenty-Ninth Bureau had long been seeking a Twin Tree seedling to plant in Du Yu’s Mountain and Sea Realm.

Since the Mountain and Sea Realm is independent from the world, presumably, the Bottomless Pit would not follow.

In this way, the Divine Tree wouldn’t have to confront the Youhan Tree, it likely wouldn’t wither, and the Human Race could once again cultivate Spiritual Qi!

However, this plan had never succeeded.

Because the Twin Trees in various Otherworlds were unwilling to gift the Human Race with seedlings.

No matter how much was pleaded, it was of no use.

The Human Race dared not use force, as each Twin Tree had a Bottomless Pit suppressed beneath it.

If you dared to act rashly, that would be giving the Bottomless Pit an opportunity.

The consequences of such an act are unbearable for anyone!

Though repeatedly frustrated, the Twenty-Ninth Bureau and Great Xia’s departments have never given up.

Because in the storyline of the Shadow Gu Tower, people from the Heart Slaying Garden once planted Twin Tree seedlings!

That is to say, humans can possess the seedlings, it’s just that the method hadn’t been found by everyone.

Now, finally, another person from the Heart Slaying Garden had personally transplanted a seedling.

How could Yang Qingqing miss such intelligence?

She immediately asked, "How did your former master acquire the Twin Tree seedling?"

Jiangshan Map: "Under the Kunlun Tree."

Yang Qingqing was taken aback: "Kunlun Divine Tree?"

The Jiangshan Map dared not conceal anything: "All the twin trees in the world are branches of the Kunlun Divine Tree. To obtain a seedling, you need to find the Kunlun Divine Tree."

Yang Qingqing nodded, she knew the first part of the information, but the second half was highly valuable.

She continued to ask, "How exactly do you obtain it?"

The Jiangshan Map: "It was during a fierce war between the Human Race and the Beast Race, the flames of war spread to the Kunlun Divine Tree, and the former owner stole it in the chaos."

Yang Qingqing’s heart sank to the bottom, still needing to use such means? Must it be obtained by cunning and force?

She sighed: "You know quite a lot."

The Jiangshan Map bowed its head respectfully: "Whenever the former owner returned victorious or achieved something, he would always inform me."

Du Yu looked at the Jiangshan Map, finding it hard to believe this was the artifact spirit of an Ancient Spiritual Artifact.

Strength, truly the foundation of everything.

With the Ancient Demon Saints of Celestial Cyan Porcelain and Shatang Tree presiding, along with Yang Qingqing precisely grasping its weakness...

This artifact was exceedingly candid, adopting a very humble attitude.

Du Yu tugged at Rotten Master Qing’s sleeve: "Youhan Tree."

Ahead, Yang Qingqing caught on: "Every time a twin tree grows, a Bottomless Pit will follow."

The Jiangshan Map immediately shook its head: "No, the Youhan Tree was not found in the Jiangshan Realm, only the twin tree existed within the painting."

Exactly!

The bureau’s judgment was correct.

Yang Qingqing pondered for a moment, suddenly asking: "Besides the previous twin tree, are there no other living creatures in the painting?"

"There have never been many living creatures."

Yang Qingqing: "Why? Isn’t your function to collect all living beings and seal them inside?"

The Jiangshan Map showed a bitter expression: "The former owner only regarded the Jiangshan Realm as a place for cultivation, enjoying the nourishment of the twin tree’s Spiritual Qi alone.

He was unwilling to accept other living beings, nor did he ever invite anyone else inside."

Yang Qingqing’s expression turned strange: "Even the colleagues from Heart Slaying Garden have never entered to cultivate?"

In that era, Spiritual Qi dissipated.

And the former owner of the Jiangshan Map hid such a twin tree within the spiritual artifact. If he were willing to share, how much could the Heart Slaying Garden organization develop and grow?

At least while the twin tree lives for a century, they could cover the heavens with one hand, right?

The Jiangshan Map shook its head: "The former owner hid me very well, never exposing it."

As Rotten Master Qing synced the information, Du Yu couldn’t help but grin: "Wow! Your former owner was truly a character.

No wonder it’s called Jiangshan, it’s all about the grand scheme~"

Yang Qingqing couldn’t help but chuckle, glancing at Du Yu: "So we’re lucky. Otherwise, who knows what shape the world would be in."

"Hmm, that’s right." Du Yu nodded repeatedly.

No wonder it’s the Heart Slaying Garden~

A truly formidable group of demons and monsters!

The Jiangshan Map: "After the former owner and his colleagues were trapped here, their Spiritual Qi was consumed by battle, and the former owner had to enter the painting to replenish Spiritual Qi.

However, when the former owner entered the painting, I would float in place.

The area was surrounded by the sea, with only one island, and the island was full of demonic plants, with the Sea God Demon Saint presiding, I had nowhere to hide.

In the end, the former owner could only cooperate with colleagues, asking them to help guard the painting. But the secret of my existence could not be kept...

Du Yu could imagine the reaction of other Heart Slaying Garden members upon learning about the Jiangshan Map and the twin tree.

He spoke: "Is this the reason for the internal conflict among the red-robed people?"

The Jiangshan Map remained silent, not responding.

Yang Qingqing: "Answer him."

The Jiangshan Map immediately responded: "Yes."

"Master Qing." Du Yu tugged again at the woman’s sleeve.

Rotten Master Qing turned her head, looking curious.

Du Yu led her back, leaping over the giant dragon claw of the Celestial Cyan Porcelain: "Do you think what the Jiangshan Map said is believable?"

Rotten Master Qing: "My Demon Soul has been in contact with the artifact spirit, it should be fine."

Du Yu whispered: "I still feel it’s not very safe.

If Master Qing sealed a contract with it, with the Spirit Contract as a guarantee, its covert thoughts would not escape Master Qing’s discerning eye."

Yang Qingqing smiled at Du Yu, realizing without needing a Demon Soul, she could see through Du Yu’s thoughts.

"Heh heh." Du Yu didn’t hide it, "This Jiangshan Map can collect everything, similar in principle to the Mountain and Sea Bell, it’s extremely valuable!"

Without waiting for Master Qing to respond, Du Yu continued to persuade: "We ultimately need to go inside to explore.

Sign the contract with it, train it well, completely subdue it!

When we explore inside, we can be at ease."

Yang Qingqing: "Regarding the bureau..."

Before the Immortal Master could finish, Du Yu interrupted: "Back then, Master Qing gave me the Mountain and Sea Bell. Now, the painting taken from my Cyan Porcelain Dragon Palace, let Master Qing contract it.

I agree!"

Yang Qingqing: "..."

Strictly speaking, this spiritual artifact truly belongs to Du Yu.

After all, it was taken from the Ancient Demon Saint’s home, and the Celestial Cyan Porcelain is undoubtedly Du Yu’s Demon Pet.

Du Yu blinked: "Tsk~ Just imagine, it’s impressive, I’m gifting Master Qing with an entire realm!

It’ll make other people’s masters envious to death!"

"Hehe." Yang Qingqing couldn’t help but laugh silently.

This matter, if spread out, would indeed cause quite a stir.

Du Yu might become known as the best disciple in all of Great Xia.

And who knows, how many masters would be green with envy?
