Chapter 604 Gradual transformation
Not long after.

Inside the restaurant.

Another table of freshly baked dishes was placed in front of Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming tasted a few bites casually, and when he saw that the curse resistance effect was gone, he nodded with satisfaction.

Now it seems.

The flesh and blood of ghost beasts and Yin materials processed by the restaurant have the ultimate purpose of increasing the resistance of the inheritor so that he can better fight against the erosion of the curse and obtain the inheritance.

That’s what the restaurant is for.

It is also a means of selecting the final heir.

Without such financial resources, or combat power, no matter how long he stayed in the deserted town, he would not be able to inherit the Ghost Emperor's legacy, and would be imprisoned here for life until he fell into despair and died.

Jiang Ming seemed to be thinking about something.

Since the function of the restaurant is to increase resistance to curse, other buildings such as pharmacies, inns, exchanges, and funeral clothing tailor shops are expected to have similar effects.

Think about this.

Jiang Ming's eyes suddenly fell on the shop owner ghost.

He said in a calm tone: "I can tell you now. I have spent so much of the source of the curse here, so I think I can get some clues about the inheritance of the Ghost Emperor."

Hear.

The shop owner's ghost's expression turned solemn.

The tone is no longer ambiguous.

He said, "You have indeed met the requirements. The inheritors who enter the deserted town need to order thirty-six dishes in the small shop to trigger the inheritance clue of the restaurant. However... I believe you have guessed what the clue is. That's right, it is to increase your resistance to curses. After eating thirty-six dishes, you can eventually gain 10% resistance to curses, allowing you to burst out Yin power for one minute within a day."

The eight ghosts and gods’ eyes lit up.

A one-minute burst of Yin energy is simply the trump card for a comeback.

after all.

The difference between nightmare-level ghosts and gods with Yin power and nightmare-level ghosts and gods without Yin power is extremely large.

Without Yin power, a nightmare-level ghost god can at most deal with three or four ghost-level deformed ghost beasts at a time, and may be injured, seriously damaged, or even die.

With Yin power, even ten or twenty ghost-level deformed ghost beasts can be easily killed. In the deserted town, you can even be the king, and even the disaster-level ghosts and gods will have to surrender.

only……

They didn't seem to feel that their resistance to the curse had increased to the point where they could unleash their Yin energy.

As if seeing the confusion of the eight ghosts, the ghost owner kindly reminded them: "The standard of thirty-six dishes is for two people. Only when two ghosts eat thirty-six dishes at the same time can they fully inherit 10% of the curse resistance. You have eight ghosts, so the curse resistance allocated to each ghost is naturally less. If you want to improve it, you need to continue ordering dishes."

When the Master of the Ten Thousand Beasts heard this, his dragon head glared fiercely and stared at the shop owner ghost: "Are you kidding us? Why didn't you tell us such important information in advance?"

The shop owner, the ghost, spread his hands. "This is part of the rules. We are only responsible for serving the food. The other conditions need to be met before they can be triggered. This can also prevent the inheritors from joining together to invest in a quick pass. The inheritance of the Ghost Emperor does not require unity."

Hear this.

The original joy of the eight ghosts and gods was also diluted.

A meal of thirty-five portions of divine substances can only be enjoyed by two ghosts. There are eight of them in total, so they need to order three more times, which means 105 portions of the source of curse.

In total, that’s 140 copies.

Converted into gray crystal, it is 14.

This is an astronomical number.

Even if a ghost with cursed divinity was born, it would be impossible to accumulate it without hundreds or thousands of years.

and.

Don't forget that this is just one of the buildings in the deserted town.

If other buildings such as pharmacies and inns also require the same amount of gray crystals, it would be impossible to gather them in a short period of time. No, it would be impossible to gather them in your lifetime.

No wonder even after more than 100,000 years since the establishment of Tianyuan, no ghost has been able to escape from the Ghost Mountains and obtain the inheritance of the Ghost Emperor. It turns out that the Ghost Emperor had no intention of letting the inheritor succeed from the beginning.

"Damn it, what is this Ghost Emperor doing? What good does he get from doing this? If he just wanted to harm the younger generation, he could have just set up a killing array to kill the intruder instead of boiling the frog in warm water, letting the successor die and waste his life, weakening the foundation of the Pure Land World."

The Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Palace cursed angrily.

He originally thought that the Ghost Emperor's inheritance was just difficult and there was still a possibility of passing it, but now it seems that the Ghost Emperor has no intention of giving his inheritance away, so he gave a standard that is impossible to achieve.

Hateful, really hateful.

The shop owner ghost said with a hint of deep meaning: "Since you have sent so many curse sources, I can pretend not to hear these words, but once you leave here, I advise you to shut up. You must know that disaster comes from the mouth. No matter what the ghost emperor has planned, we, the natives of the deserted town, only need to obey. The rest is your business."

The Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts Palace reacted and suppressed his emotions, but his face was still as gloomy as ink.

The fist is hard.

I wanted to punch the Ghost Emperor in the face.

The other ghosts had the same idea.

Everyone fell silent.

aside.

Jiang Ming was calm.

The ancient well has no waves.

It was as if hundreds of sources of curse were nothing in his eyes.

and.

that's the truth.

After listening to the shop owner's ghost's story, Jiang Ming waved his hand and a cloud of gray mist emerged.

"There are a total of 150 portions of the source of curse here. Prepare the remaining three meals according to the time of morning, noon and evening. Prepare the extra portions for me to eat normally. The rest will be my tip to you."

Done.

Jiang Ming waved his hand casually.

Gray mist rose into the air and landed in front of the shop owner ghost.

at once.

The shop owner ghost was dumbfounded.

The stiffness on his face gradually turned into astonishment.

He stared in amazement at the "ball" of source of curse that Jiang Ming sent.

A team of nine people, and only one ghost-level junior who had bred the curse divinity. He was already surprised that such a team could produce thirty-five sources of curse, and now... Jiang Ming casually took out another one hundred and fifty. This was no longer surprising, this was shocking.

It made him feel unbelievable.

"You...how long have you been here? Why have I never seen you before? Have you been purifying the source of the curse since you entered the deserted town? No, no, no, that's not right. Such a large amount of divine substance can only be restored in the best rooms of the inn. But I am familiar with the innkeeper, and he has never mentioned you."

The shop owner ghost muttered to himself.

It felt like this man was shrouded in a layer of fog, making it impossible to tell where he was coming from.

It seems like it appeared here suddenly.

Jiang Ming raised his eyes and glanced at the other person.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

"No need to guess. This is my first day in the deserted town. If you have seen me, you'd be a ghost."

Hear this.

The shop owner ghost was shocked.

The pupils shrank sharply.

The astonishment in his eyes turned into horror.

"Wait, you said you just entered the deserted town today? You must be kidding. The moment you step into the inheritance land, you will lose all your abilities. Even if you have stored the source of curse in advance, it will be useless. But you have already taken out nearly two hundred portions of divine substances from just now to now. How did you do it?"

At this moment.

The restaurant owner finally remembered what he had thought was wrong before. That was Jiang Ming was able to open the miniature ghost space and take out the ingredients that needed to be cooked.

Logically speaking, this is simply impossible.

The only possibility is that Jiang Ming was not affected by the curse of this place and his abilities were not suppressed.

Think of this.

Even though he had lived here for more than 100,000 years, his heart was still beating fast.

Is it really possible that someone can resist the methods of the Ghost Emperor in this place of inheritance?

Even if they are at the same Ghost Emperor level, I'm afraid they can't do it.

after all.

In fact, the Ghost Mountains can no longer be considered a real place, but a small world in the Kingdom of God.

Within the kingdom of God, the will of the Ghost Emperor is God's will.

God's will cannot be violated.

This is common sense.

But now, someone has broken this common sense and single-handedly resisted the suppression of a small world.

Is this man's true strength stronger than the Ghost Emperor?

The shop owner's ghost stared at Jiang Ming, as if he wanted to see through him. However, no matter how he sensed, he could only sense the fluctuations of Jiang Ming's Yin energy at the initial ghost level.

no doubt.

This is a new ghost god who has just entered the ghost god level, and his strength is at the lowest level of ghost gods.

It is impossible for such an ordinary person to not be suppressed by the land of inheritance.

In other words.

This is just the other party's disguise.

Because of his lack of strength, he could only sense fluctuations at the ghost-level.

As soon as the idea came up.

The owner's ghost's expression became more vivid, and his throat began to roll continuously.

"Sir, may I ask what brings you here? Is there anything I can do for you?"

He lowered his proud head.

He asked somewhat apprehensively.

His attitude was much more respectful than before.

He was almost kneeling on the ground to welcome him.

See this.

There was a hint of amusement in Jiang Ming's eyes.

He could also roughly guess the real reason why the shop owner's ghost changed his attitude.

have to say.

This attitude of speaking made him even more satisfied.

"Don't be nervous. I came here just to see if there are any hidden Easter eggs."

The ghost owner still lowered his head. Although Jiang Ming's words were difficult to understand, he still understood the meaning and complimented him, "Your Excellency has a keen eye for discovery. Unlike the other inheritors here, few of them have discovered the hidden clues so far. The inheritance of the Ghost Emperor belongs to you alone."

"But you have to be careful, sir. There are several ghosts who hold clues to the inheritance and are not so easy to deal with. They are diehards and do not want to see the Ghost Emperor's inheritance being obtained by other ghosts. They believe that no ghost can inherit the Ghost Emperor's inheritance. So in actual operation, the inheritor may encounter different degrees of difficulties."

"Of course, there are not many such diehards, only a few. As long as you pass it smoothly, the rest will be easy. I can also help you secretly to speed up your pace of obtaining the inheritance of the Ghost Emperor."

Jiang Ming listened with some interest.

"You seem to want to see me obtain the inheritance here."

The ghost owner was silent for a few seconds, then sighed and said, "Sir, we have been here for too long, so long that our memories before we entered here have become blurred. Like most of the natives of the deserted town, I hope that there will be an heir who can get the inheritance and liberate this place and let us leave. Even if we don't live long, we want to take a look at the outside world again, instead of being trapped in this small place forever. This is not a gift for us, but a torture."

Jiang understood clearly.

The situation of the natives of the deserted town is basically the same as that of the blood corpse. They are all special life forms that survive in special ways.

The only difference is that the blood corpse survived by relying on hibernation, and the long period of hibernation did not make him despair of ghost life.

The natives of the deserted town are different. They rely on the cursed erosion characteristics of the Ghost Mountains and have been active here day after day for hundreds of thousands of years just to maintain the operation of the deserted town. Such a long ghost life will cause even the most tenacious ghost to collapse.

Unfortunately, the special nature of the Ghost Mountains prevents them from even dying on their own.

Thus.

The natives naturally hope that there are ghosts who can inherit and bring them liberation.

Think about this.

Jiang Ming chuckled: "Don't worry, I don't want to stay in this damn place for long."

"Thank you very much, sir."

The ghost of the shop owner crouched deeply.

Pretend to express gratitude.

Subsequently.

He took out the restaurant's treasured medicinal wine, stood in front of the table like a servant, and poured wine for Jiang Ming himself.

……

at the same time.

Outside the restaurant.

The sky was getting darker.

The skinny ghost was leading a group of accomplices who shared the same suffering walking on the street, looking for survivors who were renting houses.

"According to the time estimate, this is only the first day that Tianyuan is opened. There are not many ghosts that can go deep into here. It is not easy to find new people to rent a room. The nine-person team at that time should not be missed."

A ghost with a plump face, a bunch of tough white bones standing up on both sides of his ribs, and a pretty good spirit said this, and his tone was full of dissatisfaction with the skinny ghost.

The skinny ghost hurriedly explained: "Newcomers are all arrogant when they first come here. Even if I insist on asking them to stay, they will just get annoyed and not choose to stay. Let them live in the deserted town for a while. After they understand the difficulties of life, they will naturally think of us."

"Humph, that's not necessarily true. There are many groups of people like us who share a house in the deserted town. If we don't keep a close eye on them now, what if they are robbed by other ghosts? You should know that a team of nine like this is a big fish. If you are not careful, they will be gone."

talking.

The white-bone ghost directed other ghosts to search for the traces of Jiang Ming and his group.

When they passed by the restaurant, they saw that the lights were on and there seemed to be customers, which surprised them.

"What's going on? Is there really a ghost eating at this black-hearted restaurant?"

“Could they be the indigenous people?”

"Impossible. The natives don't even need to eat. They won't leave their territory unless there are special circumstances. How could they go to a restaurant? They must be survivors like us. Let's go and see which team is so extravagant that they dare to spend money here."

The white-bone ghost took the lead and came forward, wanting to know which team or organization had the financial resources to do so.

soon.

He saw that inside the restaurant, the owner was holding a bottle of medicinal wine and serving a very young man with a smiling face.

The man's facial features were anthropomorphic, and he exuded a strong yang energy that was completely different from that of a ghost. Judging from experience, the man was at most a ghost.

At the bottom of the deserted town.

Any survivor has a higher rank than the other.

But now... such a weak man can make the restaurant owner pour wine for him personally, just like serving a distinguished guest.

This surprised him greatly.

What was even more surprising was that the skinny ghost behind him exclaimed as if he had seen a ghost: "That man is the leader of the nine-member team I mentioned earlier."
