Chapter 79: Piecing the Broken Jade Pendant Back Together! The Remnant Soul Reveals The Method to Break the Curs

Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jiang Yiming was overjoyed!

It seemed that they had to be in Underworld City before the remnant soul left in the blood jade would he tell his descendant, Dong Mi, the method to break the curse!

“Your unfilial descendant, Dong Mi, would like to hear the details!”

“Good, good!” The old man’s figure became increasingly illusory.

Such reappearance of a remnant soul in the world simply could not hold on for long.

All he wanted was for him to speak quickly!

“The method to save the family is hidden in this poem:”

“When the blood moon is in the sky, humans and ghosts are indifferentiable,

The method to reverse the soul appears.

The extreme north is turned upside down,

Enter the Underworld to find the origin.

Do not ask about the matters of the Underworld,

And only devote oneself to obtaining life-trading money.

All the souls in the world will ultimately end up in the sea,

So do not ask about the future that is fated.”

“Thave spent countless amounts of time to find the way to have the family survive, cough cough, but I didn’t expect to have reduced to ashes when I found the clues. As such, I can only put all the clues that I know into this poem! Junior, please…”

Struggling with every sentence, the more the old man said, his ethereal spirit would become increasingly illusory.

He hadn’t even finished his last sentence when he vanished between Heaven and Earth.

Both Dong Mi and Jiang Yiming were stunned.

The poem left by the old man just now should be the most important clue he knew.

“Tsk, when the blood moon is in the sky, humans and ghosts are indifferentiable, and the method to reverse the soul appears,” These sentences were not difficult to understand.

They should be the method to save the family.

‘Where humans and ghosts were indifferentiable, and the extreme north was turned upside down, they had to enter the Underworld to find the origin.

Jiang Yiming and his disciple looked at each other in dismay.

“The words ‘extreme north’ should refer to the Underworld, right? But what does upside down mean?” Dong Mi quickly took out a piece of paper and wrote down the poem.

“Enter the Underworld to find the origin. It seems to be so, you and I must make a trip to the Underworld.”

But what did ‘find the origin’ mean?

“Hiss, Dong Mi, listen to me for a moment. The human world is above, and the Underworld is below. Could it mean that at that time, the position of the two worlds would be reversed” Jiang Yiming frowned. If that was really the case, it was indeed in line with the rumors.

“The origin should be the name of the thing we’re looking for, right? We’ll ask around later and see if we can find any information about it.”

Dong Mi nodded.

“The next two sentences… Do not ask about the matters of the Underworld, and only devote oneself to obtaining life-trading money. Perhaps it means that if we want to travel in the Underworld, we will need to prepare some money to pay off the little ghost brats?”

‘The life-trading money might not be real money either but some kind of transaction item.

The last two sentences seemed to be a rough summary.

Although the whole poem was somewhat obscure and one simply couldn’t know for sure what it was saying, at least it gave them a direction for the next step.

With this, the fog that shrouded on the path to breaking the curse seemed to have cleared up a little.

Now, their task was to find out what exactly did the “origin” and “life-trading money” in the poem refer to.

Most importantly, how long would it take for the situation of ” the blood moon is in the sky, humans and ghosts are indifferentiable” to descend.

It was almost nighttime.

Jiang Yiming raised his head and looked out of the window.

The bright moon was like a mirror as it hung in the sky.

The two of them came down from their room upstairs and just happened to bump into the innkeeper who seemed to be about to close the doors and end the day of business.

“Dear guests! I don’t speak nonsense, but there are not many inns in Underworld City, and the environments there are no different from my inn. It is only natural that it’s not as comfortable staying outside as in your home! Besides, we’re in Underworld City. Why don’t you make do for a few days?”

Hearing what the boss said, it seemed he thought they wanted to change inns.

“Well, we’re not changing inns, we just want to go out and have a look. The last rays of the sun can still be seen now, and you’re already closing the doors and ending your business today?”

“Oh my! My dear guests, sorry! I’ve been insensible! Please don’t be angry, I’ll just shut up now!”

Before entering the city, someone had already reminded them that it was best not to wander about in Underworld City at night.

As such, those who dared to walk around in Underworld City at night were not people to be trifled with.

The reason why the boss was repeatedly apologizing was probably because of this too.

“Umm, don’t misunderstand. The two of us just want to get some information, I wonder…”

“Idon’t know, I don’t know. I’ll just pretend that I didn’t hear anything. Please don’t make things difficult for me,” After saying that, the boss raised his head timidly again and said softly, “If you want to get some information, you can try your luck in the Underworld market ahead. That being said,

Underworld City is very dangerous at night. If you insist on going, you must be careful!”

Jiang Yiming and his disciple nodded, then headed forward.

“The boss had said that Underworld City is extremely dangerous at night, but there’s quite a lot of people in the Underworld market!”

‘The two of them didn’t see many passers-by along the way, but the minute they entered the Underworld market, the people around started increasing.

It couldn’t be considered a crowd of people, but it wasn’t a small number either.

“Would you like to take a look at our cultivation techniques? It’s all good stuff, do take a look?” When Jiang Yiming and his disciple walked past a stall, they were attracted by the stall owner.

Cultivation techniques?

“Hehe, my lords, you look very noble. One look and people can tell that you must be extraordinary! I have a rare cultivation technique here. Seeing that it may be fated with the two of you, I’ll sell it to you!” Seeing someone stop in front of his stall, the shopkeeper immediately perked up.

He then sneakily fished out an item and handed it to Jiang Yiming.

Jiang Yiming took the cultivation technique, and a faint killing intent actually stained his hand.

He looked carefully and could see a faint trace of blood on the cultivation technique.

Tsk, so these were the kind of things sold in the Underworld market?

“The Chonghua Nine Songs Scripture! A rare treasure! If it wasn’t for the fact that the two of you have extraordinary strength and are worthy of this cultivation technique, I wouldn’t have taken it out!”

“Oh? If that’s the case, how much do you want for this cultivation technique?”

The shopkeeper’s face revealed a hint of embarrassment and reluctance as he said, “Sir, to be honest, if I can cultivate this technique, I would’ve kept it to myself! However, since you are so sincere in wanting to buy it, then I will bear the pain and part with i

After saying this, the person stretched out five fingers.

“Five thousand?”

“Sir! You really know how to joke! Five hundred thousand! Just five hundred thousand spirit stones!”

“Whoa! You have quite the appetite,” Jiang Yiming sneered.

“It can’t be that you went to great lengths to kill someone and steal this fake cultivation technique, right? If you give me five thousand, I will consider accepting it,” With that, he threw the cultivation technique onto the stall and the two of them left.

They came to a black-clothed man who was selling rare items, “Feel free to take a look. If you are interested, just let me know.”

“We came here for an item called Origin. I wonder if you have heard of it?”

When he heard Jiang Yiming ask this question, the black-clothed man who was originally indifferent abruptly stood up from his chair, “Origin?”

Jiang Yiming and Dong Mi looked at each other.

It seemed that this person had connections!
