CH 84.2

“That I don’t know.” The man gently shook his head. “I said I have only awakened a total of sixteen times, and each time was for a short period. Ten of those times, I woke up to take you back into reincarnation when your evil qi was uncontrollable. As for the remaining six times, I have seen six spiritual weapons. Judging from the passage of time, if you’re lucky enough to have the remaining five spiritual weapons transformed as successfully as the Bronze Sword, you will be able to completely separate the evil qi within your soul.”

“Then how do I go about finding these five spiritual artifacts?” Lou Ming asked again.

“That’s up to you.” At this juncture, the golden light on the man’s body suddenly flashed. The man stilled for a moment and said, “I have been out for a bit too long and must go back. Remember, as long as you bring the six pieces of the most Yin and Evil spiritual artifacts, I will awaken again and completely transfer the evil qi inside your soul.”

“Isn’t there any clue at all?” The Bronze Sword had been buried for more than a thousand years before it was dug up. How long would it take him to find the other five spiritual weapons?

The man shook his head. His body began to blur into countless points of light, and when he was about to disappear, Lou Ming suddenly called out to him: “Wait, what was my name in my first life?”

“Feng Luo!” The man smiled faintly, and that point of light merged into Lou Ming’s soul and disappeared.

Elder Wu sent Lou Ming’s living soul back to his body. Because the soul left the body for a certain period, Lou Ming needed to sleep for an hour or two to wake up. And during this time, Elder Wu had already recounted everything that happened in the bedroom in detail with everyone.

“So Lou Ming has reincarnated with his evil spirit at least ten times.” And his ten previous reincarnations all died young. With this in mind, Master Mao couldn’t help but sigh.

“I’ll have someone go find the remaining five spiritual weapons.” After listening to Elder Wu’s narrative, Minister Lou’s face remained sullen and silent. Without warning, he then stood up excitedly and was about to walk out.

“Minister Lou.” Master Mao hurriedly stopped the excited Minister Lou and said, “I understand your feelings, but the world is so big. Where can you find the five spiritual weapons?”

“The Bronze Sword was dug out by archaeologists from an ancient tomb site, so the other spiritual weapons are probably in there too,” Minister Lou said.

“How many ancient tombs can archaeologists find in a year? Lou Ming simply can’t wait that long.” Master Mao said.

“Then what other way do you think?” As soon as Minister Lou thought that Lou Ming would still carry his evil spirit in his next life as well if they failed to find all the six spiritual artifacts, he couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable, and even angry.

If there was no solution, it would be fine. However, now that there was a solution, but he couldn’t find all five spiritual artifacts, how could he be willing to do so? If he didn’t find them in this life, and Lou Ming reincarnated again and forgot the memories of this life again, wouldn’t he have to start all over again? If he was unlucky, it was likely that he wouldn’t even know about the six spiritual artifacts until death.

“Actually, it’s not completely clueless,” Elder Wu suddenly said.

“Grandpa, do you have a way?” Chen Yu grabbed Elder Wu’s arm with reddened eyes.

From the time Chen Yu heard that Lou Ming had actually reincarnated ten lifetimes with his evil spirit, she felt as if a huge stone was pressing on her chest. She felt so uncomfortable and unable to breathe.

In the previous ten lives, did Third Brother meet a person like me who isn’t affected by his evil qi or lived alone? The more Chen Yu thought about it, the sadder she felt. Her eyes couldn’t help but redden.

“But the operation is a little difficult,” Elder Wu said again.

“Being difficult is better than having no clue. What exactly is the solution? Quickly say it.” Chen Yu couldn’t resist urging.

“Little Friend Chen is right. We can overcome difficulties as long as we can find clues,” Master Mao also said.

“That’s right, Master Wu, you can say what methods you have. I’ll solve the other problems,” Minister Lou followed and said.

“Why are you guys so excited? Since I mentioned it, I naturally won’t hide it.” Elder Wu disgustedly pushed away his granddaughter who was holding his arm before continuing, “In fact, the clue is in Lou Ming himself.”

The crowd looked at Elder Wu in confusion. How did the clue lie in Lou Ming’s body?

“Feng Luo said that he injected the six spiritual artifacts with evil qi.” Elder Wu analyzed, “Although Feng Luo had awakened for a short time and didn’t know where the spiritual artifacts that had been injected with evil qi were placed, Lou Ming must know.”

“Third Brother’s past life?” Chen Yu reacted instantly.

Elder Wu glanced at his granddaughter approvingly. She was indeed worthy of being a child of Imperial Capital University. Her brain was just good.

“Yes.” Master Mao also reacted at this time, and he said excitedly, “Although Lou Ming has no more memories of his past lives, the Book of Life and Death in the Underworld will make a detailed record of a mortal’s repeated life experiences. As long as we can find the information of Lou Ming’s past ten lives from the Book of Life and Death, we can find the whereabouts of the remaining five spiritual artifacts from it.”

“Book of Life and Death? Can I look through it to consult it?” Although Minister Lou was not a person in Metaphysics, he also knew that such things shouldn’t be accessible to anyone.

“Ordinary people naturally can’t view the Book of Life and Death, but ghosts can.” Master Mao explained, “Although there are rules in the Underworld where ghost messengers can’t just reveal the past lives of mortals, if a Celestial Master is strong enough and has a good enough relationship with them, it isn’t impossible. After all, past lives are different from this life. Past lives have become history. Even if you know someone’s past life experience, it won’t change anything.”

“Then Master Mao, can you get a ghost messenger to view Lou Ming’s life experiences in his previous lives?” Minister Lou asked.

“This poor Daoist is ashamed to say that although I barely entered the Underworld once, there is no ghost messenger I’m familiar with.” Master Mao turned to Elder Wu and said, “I’m afraid we still have to rely on Perfected Lou He to have a trip to the Underworld for this matter.”

Minister Lou turned to Elder Wu expectantly.

“I’m ashamed to say that although it isn’t difficult to go to the Underworld, and I also know some ghost messengers, but, cough, my relationship with the Underworld is really not quite amicable.” A wanted criminal in the Underworld would go to the Underworld’s police for information? Wasn’t that the same as surrendering.

Master Mao didn’t expect that Elder Wu couldn’t go either. He immediately frowned and began to think about who else among the masters of metaphysics he knew had the strength to make a trip to the Underworld.

“What level of ghost messenger can look through the Book of Life and Death?” Chen Yu, who had been quietly listening to them, suddenly spoke up and asked, “Can a magistrate under the seat of the City God do it?”

“Do you know a magistrate?” Master Mao exclaimed in amazement.

“Yeah!” Chen Yu shook her phone. “I have his phone number.”

The Author has something to say: 

Master Mao: I have the phone numbers of Metaphysics masters from various countries.

Minister Lou: I have the phone numbers of all important leaders of the country.

Xishi: I have the phone number of someone in the Underworld.

Elder Wu: When I caused chaos in the Underworld, there was no phone in the world of the living. Otherwise I could have had Yanwang’s phone number…
