Hai Qingshi's Secret Art

A day later, Hai Qingshi returned to the city lord's mansion in a hurry.

However, after returning home, he didn't go to his father's place immediately, but instead went back to his own bedroom.

After dismissing everyone around, Hai Qingshi used his Divine Sense to examine his residence for a long time before slowly exhaling.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a cauldron that was half the height of a person from his Storage Bag.

The cauldron looked extremely ancient, and the carvings on it were so captivating that they inspired a desire to immerse oneself in it. Furthermore, the characters on it appeared to be incredibly profound, unlike any script known in the Cultivation Realm.

However, Hai Qingshi, as the owner of the cauldron, did not pay attention to the inscription on it, but instead slowly opened the lid of the cauldron.

The cauldron was filled with a bloody mess; at first glance, it looked like a person's limbs and head, with the rest being bright red chunks of flesh, and even quite a few white bones.

If Yi Xuan were to see the situation inside the cauldron, he would surely find it very familiar.

Because the flesh and blood in the cauldron came from the young man he had killed on the Ark, who was the city lord's second son.

Unexpectedly, the flesh and blood that Yi Xuan threw into the deep sea were not eaten by the passing sea monsters, but were instead retrieved by Hai Qingshi, the eldest son of the city lord.

Simply putting his own brother's flesh and blood into the cauldron doesn't seem like a normal method.

Standing beside the cauldron Hai Qingshi grew increasingly excited as he looked at the flesh and blood inside. His flushed face seemed to hold a great attraction for his younger brother's flesh and blood.

He was alone in the room at that moment, and the desire on his face was unmistakable.

However, what he didn't know was that a miniature robot inside his hair was transmitting his every move to Yi Xuan.

At this moment, Yi Xuan was sitting cross-legged in the room arranged by Liu Yusen, watching Hai Qingshi's actions with great interest.

As for this miniature robot, it was the one that Yi Xuan had placed on Zhang Xinzhi.

After Zhang Xinzhi reported the situation on the Ark to Hai Qingshi, Yi Xuan had the miniature robot transferred to Hai Qingshi.

To put it bluntly, he already knew perfectly well that he had killed the city lord's second son, and the micro-robots were definitely more useful to Hai Qingshi than to Zhang Xinzhi.

Sure enough, just one day later, the miniature robot brought Yi Xuan a bombshell.

Seeing Hai Qingshi display such a desire for food towards his own brother's flesh and blood, Yi Xuan felt a surge in his stomach.

Fortunately, having experienced the Blood Asura Gate's massacre of the village before, Yi Xuan's mental fortitude was strong enough that he didn't actually vomit.

The desire in Hai Qingshi's eyes gradually faded, and he even began to mutter to himself, "Elder Hai, we've only found so much of Qing Song's flesh and blood. I wonder if it will still be effective!"

After waiting for a long time, Hai Qingshi still didn't say anything, and just stood there blankly.

After a while, he seemed relieved. "That's good. I'll go and report to my father later, and we'll begin when I get back!"

After saying that, Hai Qingshi put the cauldron into his Storage Bag and hurriedly went out.

Yi Xuan, on the other hand, looked very serious.

Hai Qingshi's behavior just now was beyond strange. Although it seemed like he was talking to himself, Yi Xuan still felt that he was talking to someone.

However, since there was no one else in the room at the time, it was quite obvious.

It could be that Hai Qingshi was communicating telepathically with that Elder Hai, but Yi Xuan thought that possibility was unlikely.

Because of Hai Qingshi's tone and expression at the time, it was obvious that the person was right next to him.

As for the other possibility, which is also Yi Xuan's guess, it is that the person he was talking to is inside his body.

Although there is no evidence, Yi Xuan feels that the second possibility is more likely.

Furthermore, judging from Hai Qingshi's behavior, it's clear that this guy had been plotting this for a long time. It was just that Yi Xuan's appearance happened to give him a hand.

Otherwise, even without Yi Xuan, Hai Qingshi would have eventually harmed his brother.

Hai Qingshi quickly arrived at Hai Yue's study. Seeing his father's furrowed brows, he immediately knelt down and said, "Father, your letter has been delivered to the City Lord of East Yan City! That old bastard Xing Qi has agreed to your plan and will join forces with us to deal with that Human Clan. However, he has also made a condition!"

What are the conditions?

"He demanded that we hand over his Water Cloud Stone by tomorrow, not after it was completed, otherwise he wouldn't proceed!"

Hearing Hai Qingshi's words, Hai Yue sneered, "Old fox, give it to him! Hmph, let him be happy for now, and then we'll see how I deal with him!"

Seeing that his father had made a decision, Hai Qingshi said that he was feeling troubled because of his younger brother's matter and wanted to go back to his room to rest.

Hai Yue naturally nodded in agreement, but after Hai Qingshi left, Hai Yue muttered to himself, "Shadow, do you think Qi Feiyu's joining Qing Song as a pirate has anything to do with Qingshi?"

After a long silence in the room, a voice suddenly rang out. "I don't know, but judging from the eldest young master's actions, it shouldn't have anything to do with him!"

Hearing this, Hai Yue nodded and continued, "Has the news of Qing Song's murder been delivered to Sea Emperor City?"

We've arrived!

The voice in the air continued, "However, that person is currently in seclusion, and those below dare not disturb them rashly. The message that has been sent back is that once that person emerges from seclusion, those below will immediately explain the Second Young Master's situation!"

Hai Yue gave a wry smile, a hint of helplessness in his voice. "Alas, if that person were to make a move, why would I be so timid and hesitant! As the city lord, I've truly been walking on thin ice. If it weren't for my caution all these years, I might already be beheaded!"

There was no sound in the air anymore, as if Hai Yue was talking to himself.

After returning to his bedroom, Hai Qingshi did not rest. Instead, he turned a vase by the bedside, revealing a dark, secret room beneath the bed.

Upon seeing the entrance to the secret chamber, Hai Qingshi leaped inside and then closed the entrance.

After entering the secret chamber and checking it for a long time to make sure it was safe, Hai Qingshi took out the cauldron again. He then instantly unleashed countless Method Formulas on the cauldron.

The cauldron actually began to float in the air, and then a dazzling flame could be seen appearing out of thin air inside the cauldron.

After an unknown amount of time, the flames in the cauldron slowly died out.

Hai Qingshi, who was controlling the cauldron, also opened his eyes. He waved his hand at the cauldron, and the lid opened directly. A seven-colored ribbon floated out of the cauldron.

Upon seeing the seven-colored ribbon, Hai Qingshi's eyes narrowed. He leaped up and grabbed the ribbon in his hand. Without hesitation, he aimed the ribbon at the top of his head and slapped it down.

As the seven-colored ribbon entered his body, a ribbon with only four colors floated out from the top of his head.

Watching the ribbon slowly dissipate in the air, Hai Qingshi revealed a satisfied smile, "From today onwards, I am also a genius with Seventh-Grade Spirit Root!"

When Yi Xuan saw this, his heart was filled with turbulent waves. He never expected that the ribbon was actually Spirit Root.

The Hai Qingshi possesses a secret technique that can replace Spirit Root, something Yi Xuan has always dreamed of obtaining!
