Chapter 16: 16

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

This trip to the cemetery had brought Lu Li quite a hefty reward.

Although he was still a little jittery about the time in the cemetery, during that one hour, the result of Lu Li continuously absorbing those evil Yin energy had increased the spiritual power in his body to a whole new level.

As his spiritual power increased, Lu Li also felt a little dizzy.

“This is the ‘cultivation fatigue’ state mentioned in the breathing technique, it seems?”

Cultivation required the consumption of mental vigor. Although he cultivated by absorbing the evil Yin energy, the core of cultivation was the same, be it absorbing the spiritual energy from heaven and earth or evil Yin energy.

After one’s mental vigor is consumed to a certain extent, one will enter the cultivation fatigue state. At this time, he would need to sleep to recover his mental vigor.

“Of course, it’s also possible that I slept too late last night and had too little sleep. That could be why I’m so tired.”

Lu Li wanted to go home as soon as possible after realizing this.

He wanted to have a good night’s rest.

On the way home, Lu Li passed by a large bridge.

Under the bridge was a very wide river.

Rao Shui River.

Rao Shui town’s name came from this river.

On both sides of the river were the most prosperous parts of the town. All kinds of bookstores, businesses, residential areas, and other public facilities were here.

Lu Li grew up alongside this river. He had a special feeling towards this river. After getting a second chance in life, he could not help but feel emotional whenever he came across things that are familiar.

Walking on the bridge and looking at the scenery along the shore, his mood relaxed.

“However, this river seems to have become much wider than in my previous life.”

Although in this world, it was normal for it to be a little wider.

With this thought, Lu Li’s attention could not help but fall on a staircase on the other side of the river. There were many women carrying buckets washing clothes by the river.

Children were lifting their trousers and stepping in the water, kicking and playing with the water.

Seeing this scene, Lu Li inexplicably thought of his previous life. Many children had drowned in this river.

Most of the children who lived by the river would grow up playing in the river.

Some children were braver than others. They assumed that they knew their limits and could swim, so they would usually swim to the deeper end of the river.

Some of these children had drowned themselves by doing so.

Lu Li had a classmate in primary school who drowned while playing in the river.

Lu Li did not know why he suddenly thought of the drowning of a child during such a nostalgic mood. Perhaps it was because he had just come out of the cemetery.

He could not help but imagine.

Since so many people had died in this river, could there be evil Yin energy in it?

After all, he had heard many stories about water ghosts when he was young.

As soon as this thought popped up in his mind, Lu Li’s curiosity was piqued.

He immediately began to activate his spiritual power and transferred it to the jade pendant.

Then, he entered the spirit vision mode.

Under the spirit vision mode, all the colors in front of him dimmed down, except for the many red dots on both sides of the river.

Those red dots were the evil Yin energy, but they all looked dispersed, far inferior to the cemetery.

With that thought, Lu Li turned his gaze to the middle of the river.

What he saw made Lu Li’s pupils shrink!

In the center of the river, there was a very dense dark purple aura. It was frighteningly purple, seemingly representing the color of the underworld.

This was the first time Lu Li had seen such density!

It was ten thousand times denser than what he had seen in the cemetery just now! This dark purple color seems to become a whole different substance!

“What is this?”

Lu Li hurriedly cut off the connection with the Ethereal Jade pendant.

His vision immediately returned to normal.

Looking at the middle of the river, he saw that there was nothing but water.

Only golden sunlight reflected by the river.

It was as if there was nothing there.

Lu Li could only continue to circulate his spiritual power and enter the spirit vision mode.

Sure enough, as soon as he entered the spirit vision mode, the dark purple color appeared again.

It was so deep that it was like a dark purple bottomless pit.

Lu Li searched through his memories regarding the Ethereal Jade pendant, but he could not find any information related to this purple aura. It was bizarre.

Lu Li also noticed that some of this purple aura had also spread to the shore.

However, the part that fanned out was very faint, only slightly thicker than the sinister aura at the cemetery.

The main point was that it was tiny in size.

Lu Li could not help but be curious and walked towards the faint purple aura.

Although this unknown thing might be accompanied by danger, seeing so many old people and children playing chess in the shade on the shore made him a little more courageous.

Let’s take a look. What if it could be used for cultivation?

Thinking of this, Lu Li took out his cell phone as he walked and searched for what was at the bottom of the river.

However, there was no such information on the Internet. He could only find a lot of descriptions such as “The mother river of Rao Shui town, ‘Rich in aquatic products’, and ‘Dragon boat racing scenic spots'”.

Lu Li had to change his search to find any deaths in the Rao Shui River.

Soon, he found a lot of news about drowning deaths.

Moreover, a large part of it happened in the last decade. Children and youngsters that had drowned.

There was even news of children drowning and adults jumping into the river to save them. As a result, both adults and children drowned.

However, these articles did not link the drowning to any strange events. They only advised people that nature was merciless. They should not let their children go to play in the river, harming themselves and others.

After checking the news, Lu Li reached the bank of the river.

The bank was about 20 meters away from the main river. Lu Li’s jade pendant’s range of absorption was barely able to reach the blob of purple aura.

However, after reading the many incidents that happened, Lu Li was a little hesitant.

After all, he still remembers the stories of water ghosts that his grandfather told him when he was young.

Although he had become an atheist when he grew up, this world was different after all. This current world of his does contain unclean things.

Lu Li struggled internally for a long time.

In the end, he couldn’t help but be curious.

He decided to give it a try.

“If there’s a problem, I’ll leave immediately.”

There were so many people here anyway. Moreover, Lu Li had also noticed from the map on his phone that there was a stronghold of the city guards a few hundred meters away from the river.

If there was a problem, he would run to the city guards and ask for help!

With this thought in mind, Lu Li began to activate his spiritual power.

He went to absorb that blob of faint purple aura.

This time, Lu Li was very careful and only absorbed a wisp of it.

Just as the purple aura was attracted just a meter away from Lu Li, he suddenly felt a wave of coldness wash over him.

Although it was not chilled to the bone, there was a sense of eeriness to it.

This cold feeling was completely different from the chill from the Yamato sword. It was more of a chill coming from his soul.

However, this wisp of purple aura was successfully absorbed by the jade pendant.

The jade pendant quickly converted this wisp of purple aura into spiritual power and injected it into Lu Li’s body.

Lu Li’s eyes lit up as he felt a robust surge of spiritual power into him!

“Such strong spiritual power!”
