Chapter 384: Scheming Ghost Doctor, Secret Door of Life and Death
Trantor: ChibiGeneral Editor: ChibiGeneral
“To think that this three kings inheritance is a trap, the true winner is you, little beast king!” Killer ghost
doctor Chou Jiuid on the ground, staring deeply and closely at Fang Yuan as he eximed.
After Fang Yuan convinced thend spirit, he rushed to Chou Jiu and beat him up.
Chou Jiu had an ugly appearance, his hair was like dry yellow grass, his brain was protruding and his
eyes were of different sizes. His cheekbone was very high, his nose was t, there was arge clump
of hair growing out of his nostrils, and his yellow teeth were projecting outwards.
But his gaze was veryplicated, he had a plotting ability that ordinary people could not possess.
“Little beast king, I know about you, you have great talent, from a vagabond, you grew to this extent, I
admire you greatly. Compared to you, I am merely several years older. When I was young, I did not
have such aplishments. You are a dragon among men, you will eventually soar to the heavens,
and roam the world freely. I have no intentions to be enemies with you, if possible, I would like to use
the information regarding the door of life and death to preserve my life.”
Fang Yuan had killed four rank five Gu masters earlier, some of them were shocked, some furious,
some fearful, but this Chou Jiu was extremely calm.
After understanding his situation, he ced his ego down and praised Fang Yuan.
Heid on the ground, not moving, as if he gave up on resisting.
But at this moment, thend spirit suddenly transmitted: “Quickly kill him, he is activating his token and
Gu worms furiously, I am trying to suppress them but this is causing great immortal essence
expenditure.”
But Fang Yuan was slightly stunned, almost thinking he had hallucinated: “Door of life and death?”
This door of life and death was a big deal, it was recorded in <>, a secret forbiddennd in ancient
times. It was simr to the river of time and ordinary abyss.
After Verdant Great Sun died, Ren Zu went to the door of life and death to attempt to revive him.
Legend says that behind the door of life and death holds the secrets of life and death, if a person can
comprehend itpletely, they would be able to control life and death itself.
“Chou Jiu knows the location of the door of life and death?!” Fang Yuan’s heart was palpitating, as his
expression turned cold, warning severely: “Chou Jiu, activate your Gu worms one more time and I will
kill you immediately.”
Chou Jiu’s expression changed, his pupils shrinking as he slowly sat up, looking at Fang Yuan: “You
can sense me using Gu worms!”
A thought shed across his eyes: “You can use Gu worms, while I can’t use mine at all. Sigh, it seems
there is only one possibility — thend spirit is still alive and you subdued it. So this blessednd has
such a secret. What a pity, back when the three kings obtained this ce, they did not truly control the
blessednd, thus you have obtained it now. But this blessednd is on the brink of destruction, there
is no way to save it. Thend spirit must be extremely old and weak too right, otherwise the Gu
Masters would’ve been chased out already. Why would you need to eliminate us personally?”
Although Fang Yuan did not control this blessednd, after expressing his identity, thend spirit would
listen to some of his instructions in order to assist him with the Gu refinement.
Chou Jiu was over a century old, he was old and scheming, easily guessing the scenario.
“Since you control the blessednd, then I won’t bother with this pointless act. As long as you preserve
my life, what you will obtain will be out of your imagination.” Chou Jiu said, stopping his secret actions.
Fang Yuanughed without denying: “Talk about the door of life and death. You know the location? The
door of life and death is a forbidden ground not inferior to the river of time, there is an extremely wide
area inside, reflecting the five regions of the main world. Legend says that there are many unique and
natural Gu worms inside, like life Gu, and death Gu.”
Chou Jiu nodded: “I know the door’s location, not only that, I have even explored it multiple times and
captured some of the life Gu and death Gu inside, eventually refining one life one death Gu. I ced
this Gu inside the door of life and death, every time a person dies because of me, it will absorb this
death energy and convert it into lifeforce. Because of this lifeforce, my healing methods are extremely
profound. This is the reason why I became one of the four great doctors of southern border.”
Killer ghost doctor revealed his own secret, to increase his trustworthiness.
“Oh? So that’s it.” This was the first time Fang Yuan heard such a thing, although he had his previous
life’s memories, he was not all-knowing.
“Then in that case, tell me, and I may spare you a life.” Fang Yuan promised.
But Chou Jiu shook his head: “The secret regarding the door of life and death is way too important. I
have once vowed before the sea oath Gu, to not reveal the details to outsiders. Once I say it, I will turn
into dust, wiped off from this world. But if you join the shadow sect, you will be one of us, and I will be
able to tell you.”
“Sea oath Gu? Shadow Sect?” Fang Yuan frowned.
Sea oath Gu is a rank six Immortal Gu, it was very famous during ancient times, together with mountain
pledge Gu. Mountain pledge and sea oath, they worked like the poison vow Gu, but poison vow Gu
was an expenditure Gu while these two Immortal Gu could be repeatedly used.
Fang Yuan had heard of the sea oath Gu and had an understanding of it. But he was unfamiliar with
‘Shadow Sect’.
Hearing this name, it sounds like a sect for Gu cultivators. That means, the loner Chou Jiu, had a
secret organisation behind him?
Fang Yuan felt a little threatened, the situation was slightly out of his expectations.
It was not hard to kill Chou Jiu now, but Fang Yuan knew nothing about Shadow Sect, this gave him a
sense of insecurity.
“That’s right, my sect is the Shadow Sect. The great ancestor who created Shadow Sect, was a rank
eight Gu Immortal of the Immemorial Era. He was the one who found the door of life and death, and
ced it into his blessednd. Later, many Gu Immortals were nurtured in Shadow Sect, the benefits
are endless for you if you join Shadow Sect.”
Saying so, Chou Jiu said a bunch of benefits, truly expending his verbal talent, spouting an
exaggerated tale.
Fang Yuan struggled a little, before calming down: “Hehehe, Chou Jiu, that’s a nice n there. If I join
Shadow Sect, you not only will be free from danger, I will even have to call you senior brother. In such a
traditional sect, respecting seniority is the most important thing. If I join it, I will definitely have to make
an oath and be restricted with all sorts of methods. At the end, I even have to contribute my gains on
San Cha mountain, and do missions for the n in the name of loyalty, am I right?”
“Shadow Sect?” Fang Yuan sneered, shaking his head: “Let’s not talk about the possibility of you lying,
even if it is real, so what? A sect that was created in the Immemorial Era, it is a miracle that it is still
around now. You mentioned there were many Gu Immortals in history, but they are mostly dead already
right. Otherwise, Shadow Sect would be a great force in the southern border, why would you have to
fight alone, and slog it out single-handedly?”
Chou Jiu’s expression turned white, he had to reassess Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan was so young, but he was so calcting and scheming. Facing potential benefits, he could
remain so calm and analytic, what sort of young man is this? He is definitely a hundred year old
monster!
Fang Yuanughed heartily, continuing: “I am the type of person who likes to take all the benefits for
himself, don’t tell me about win-win situations. Even if you made the sea oath, it is not unbreakable.
Sea oath Gu and mountain pledge Gu have an obvious weakness. When you made the oath, you had
to face the sea or arge mountain. As long as the piece of ocean or the mountain is destroyed, the
oath will lose its effect.”
Chou Jiu’s heart froze.
Fang Yuan was knowledgeable and knew many things, he was not like a newbie at all.
These kind of people were the hardest to fool.
Chou Jiu calmed his spirits: “It is useless. The sea that I made the oath to is inside the Shadow Sect
blessednd, if you want to destroy that sea, you will need to know the location of the blessednd. But
for me to say that location, you have to destroy the sea first. It is a dead loop.”
Fang Yuan sneered, killing intent surging: “Since there is nothing that can be done, forget it. You can
die now.”
Chou Jiu sighed greatly: “If you want to kill me, go ahead.”
He did not move, but in his heart, he felt certain.
The door of life and death was a legendary location, who did not care about their life and death? Little
beast king definitely cannot endure such a temptation, his actions now were only to scare him.
But Fang Yuan shot out the bone spike resolutely.
This bone spike flew towards Chou Jiu’s heart.
At once, an intense sense of danger assaulted Chou Jiu.
“What! He actually wants to kill me?!” Chou Jiu was shocked, quickly evading.
Pew!
A crisp sound and the bone spike pierced his shoulder, inches away from his heart, only after it stabbed
through his back did it stop.
“You, you!” Chou JIu pointed at Fang Yuan, his trembling voice contained fear, shock, and confusion:
“Little beast king, you madman! You really wanted to kill me, if I did not dodge, I would’ve died! That is
the door of life and death, the door of life and death! Back then, even Ren Zu had to spend all his effort
to find it. This is an unparalleled holynd, the controller of life and death, as long as you can obtain it
andprehend it, you will attain immortality!”
Fang Yuan looked at him coldly, speaking inly: “Didn’t you say you can’t tell me the secret? Then
what use do I have of you?”
“You can join the Shadow Sect!” Chou Jiu’s body was sweating, either out of pain or fear.
Fang Yuan snorted coldly, raising his hand and aiming again.
Chou Jiu quickly waved his hand, shouting: “Wait, wait, don’t be rash. There are other methods than
this, we can use the poison vow Gu, if we make a poison vow, we can trust each other.”
“I do not need your trust.” Fang Yuan replied coldly.
“Then use the very Gu, I will acknowledge you as my master, don’t kill me.”
“You are a rank five Gu Master, we need to use the rank five very Gu. This Gu is extremely rare,
way more expensive than its other rank five counterparts, where do you want me to find it? Moreover,
even if we use these Gu, can you tell me the location of Shadow Sect’s blessednd?” Fang Yuan
retorted.
Chou Jiu’s expression froze.
Fang Yuan observed his expression, and his heart moved, knowing that the words were true.
Fang Yuan’s killing intent was not real, he was merely trying to test Chou Jiu.
Chou Jiu suggested the poison vow Gu, very Gu, he was already frantic, but still did not dare to
mention the location of the blessednd. It seems he really did make the sea oath.
N?velDrama.Org owns this.
Chou Jiu wanted to lie and make up a random location.
But as long as he did not die from the oath, it means he lied. If he said the real location, the oath would
take his life as well.
Or rather, even if he managed to say it, he would lose all his value and Fang Yuan would not let him off.
In this situation, Chou Jiu was at his wits’ end.
Recognising this, heughed bitterly: “To think that I Chou Jiu would die here today.”
“Being able to die in my hands is your honor.” Fang Yuan replied inly.
Chou Jiu looked at Fang Yuan seriously, nodding in agreement: “That’s true, with your talent and
mentality, as long as your luck is not too bad, you will definitely be a walking disaster of the demonic
path. You want to kill me, there is no point in begging anymore. It is fine if I die in your hands, at least
better than getting killed by those scumbags outside. Actually, I have a n to allow you to learn about
the door of life and death.”
Saying so, a cunning light shed across Chou Jiu’s eyes.
