Chapter 117
There were many rumors about the Ghastly Ruins, and Gu Chen had heard of them before.
However, after he personally entered the Ghastly Ruins, he came out alive. Not only did he escape unscathed, but he was also not tainted by the so-called ominous aura.
That place was indeed strange. Even now, he shuddered at the thought of the chaotic Ghastly Ruins when he escaped, and the peerless evil spirit behind him that seemed to have been awakened by the domineering aura.
Judging from the tone of the Green Qilin Killing God, it was an incredible thing for him to come out alive.
In the past, Gu Chen had never thought about this problem. He just thought that he was lucky and escaped in time, but now he could not help but ponder.
How could he come out alive and not be tainted by the so-called ominous aura?
His intuition told him that it was because of his physique. Perhaps the Overbearing Heavenly Bone had a special restraining effect on dark things.
However, White Ape also came out alive and was even more lively than him. What was going on?
Could it be that the little guy's bloodline was also extraordinary?
Thinking of White Ape's intelligence, it was possible.
Gu Chen realized that he had not studied the little guy for a long time. He did not even know what realm it was at.
Hundreds of thoughts flashed through his mind, but it only took a moment.
Gu Chen could not tell the Green Qilin Killing God his speculation, so he replied calmly.
"Maybe I have a tough life, or maybe the Ghastly Ruins and I are not compatible, so they did not want my life."
"Tough life?"
The Green Qilin Killing God was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed. "Tough life? You really dare to say it!"
"Forget it, I was just curious. If you don't want to say it, then don't. In the Celestial Court, everyone has their own secrets."
"Show me the Nine Yin Stones. I have prepared the Nirvana Pills you wanted."
Hearing this, Gu Chen was greatly relieved.
It seemed that the other party did not have any evil intentions, but was just curious.
He quickly took out a bag of Nine Yin Stones and handed it to the Green Qilin Killing God.
The Green Qilin Killing God glanced at the Nine Yin Stones and praised. "It is indeed a product of the Ghastly Ruins. The quality is indescribable. Here, this bottle of Nirvana Pills is yours."
With a wave of his sleeve, a white bottle fell into Gu Chen's hand.
Gu Chen opened the bottle stopper, and a medicinal fragrance assailed his nostrils. There were actually no less than seven dark green round Nirvana Pills inside.
"Senior, isn't this too much?"
Gu Chen was surprised. Before he came here, he had studied the price of the Nirvana Pill. He estimated that a bag of Nine Yin Stones could be exchanged for about three Nirvana Pills.
The Green Qilin Killing God had obviously given him a lot, and the quality of the Nirvana Pills he had given him seemed to be much better than the ones on the market. It had probably reached the Black Level Upper Grade!
"Not much, not much. The Nine Yin Stones produced by the Ghastly Ruins are very rare. I even made a profit."
The Green Qilin Killing God shook his head.
When Gu Chen heard this, he was overjoyed and did not say anything else.
Such a high quality Nirvana Pill would greatly increase his chances of successfully breaking through.
"Alright, you can go now."
The Green Qilin Killing God seemed to have lost interest in Gu Chen after failing to get any information about the Ghastly Ruins.
"Then this junior will take his leave."
After bowing, Gu Chen turned around and left.
The Green Qilin Killing God did not speak, his mind was focused on the Nine Yin Stones.
After taking a few steps, Gu Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks and his expression became uncertain.
It was rare for him to have direct contact with the higher-ups of the Celestial Court. If he left this time, he might not have such an opportunity in the future!
He was in a dilemma, thinking about how to speak.
"Why, do you have something else to say?"
The Green Qilin Killing God asked calmly.
Gu Chen took a deep breath and turned around. "Senior, this junior has an important matter to report!"
"What important matter could it be? Even if you have something, you shouldn't tell me. "
The Green Qilin Killing God looked disinterested.
From his point of view, Gu Chen was just a Bronze Assassin. His so-called important matter was not worth mentioning in his eyes.
The Celestial Court had its own rules. If a Bronze Assassin had something to say, he could just report it to his superior.
"It's about the Underworld God Palace. This matter might be of great significance to the Celestial Court!"
Gu Chen said loudly, his attitude extremely serious.
"Oh?"
The Green Qilin Killing God squinted his eyes. He was interested.
The three major underground forces of the continent were like fire and water, especially the Celestial Court and the Underworld God Palace. Their relationship was not harmonious.
This kid spoke so seriously, it did not seem like he was spouting nonsense. Could it be that he had obtained some important information about the Underworld God Palace?
"Let's hear it."
He kept the Nine Yin Stone and listened attentively.
Gu Chen was not in a hurry to speak. He was organizing his words in his mind.
Ever since he found out from Cao Xuanbin about the existence of the Man with a Bamboo Hat and the fact that Lu Yichen was still alive, he could not wait to rush there, destroy the Divine Creation Pavilion, and save everyone who was suffering inside.
However, that was an important place in the Underworld God Palace. With his strength, he could not barge in. He would only be courting death if he went.
Because of this concern, he had been in a dilemma for the past few weeks.
As the days passed, although Cao Xuanbin said that the other party would not move in a short period of time, Gu Chen was still rather worried.
He was worried that he would miss the opportunity to rescue Lu Yichen, and the possibility of dealing a heavy blow to the Underworld God Palace.
Therefore, he had been thinking about the possibility of reporting this matter to the Celestial Court. Could he borrow the hands of the Celestial Court to get rid of this important place in the Underworld God Palace?
However, the Celestial Court was a large and complicated organization. If he reported to the upper echelons according to the rules and passed the information step by step, things might change in the end and not go according to his plan.
In fact, he could not eliminate the possibility that there was a spy from the Underworld God Palace in the Celestial Court. This would greatly increase his risk.
Today, he had unexpectedly met the Green Qilin Killing God. The other party was an important figure in the Celestial Court. As long as this matter could attract his attention, his plan to kill with a borrowed knife might succeed!
Gu Chen hesitated for a while. Finally, he decided to take the risk and spill the beans!
Gu Chen cautiously and slowly told the Green Qilin Killing God about the God Creation Pavilion and the Man with a Bamboo Hat conducting human experiments.
Of course, he omitted the existence of Cao Xuanbin. He only said that he had discovered it unintentionally.
If he directly mentioned Cao Xuanbin, then even if he did not report his previous mission, Cao Xuanbin would also fall into the hands of the Celestial Court.
Before he could confirm how the Celestial Court would deal with Cao Xuanbin, he did not want to expose him.
"Human experiments?"
The Green Qilin Killing God's eyes gradually lit up as he listened to Gu Chen's explanation.
"I know about the Man with a Bamboo Hat. He is the right-hand man of the Underworld God.
"It is said that he has been conducting research on special body constitutions all these years. The Celestial Court has always been very concerned about this matter. I did not expect you to discover his nest!"
The Green Qilin Killing God seemed to have thought of something. He wanted to say something but stopped. However, the excitement in his eyes could not be concealed.
Gu Chen was shocked. He had been worried that the Celestial Court would not be interested in this matter. However, it seemed like the value of the Man with a Bamboo Hat's research was greater than he had imagined!
