Reincarnated As a Fox With System

Chapter 960 Strange Yin Burial Ground!

Tang Li Xueʼs group met many evil cultivators and robbers on their way, but Xiʼer, Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia could defeat them all with ease.

Nascent Soul Stage masters like Xiʼer were already extremely powerful outside the Capital City of the Great Wei Dynasty.

Almost all Nascent Soul Stage masters held high positions in certain factions, so it was unlikely for Tang Li Xueʼs group to accidentally bump into some random Nascent Soul Stage masters on the way unless they invaded the branch quarters of those factions.

As for Spirit Transformation Realm Grandmasters, they should be one hundred times rarer than Nascent Soul Stage masters. It was probably much easier to find a needle in a haystack than looking for Spirit Transformation Realm Grandmasters outside the Capital City.

Well, even Core Formation Stage cultivators like the Third Prince and his guards could travel around the Great Wei Dynasty safely, so it should not be a big problem for Tang Li Xue and her team as long as Xiʼer was with them and they did not deliberately court death.

Unknowingly, several days had passed, and they finally reached Yin Burial Ground.

Even though they met several obstacles on their way to this Yin Burial Ground, which delayed them for two or three days, but at least they managed to arrive here safely.

Both Tang Li Xue and Xiʼer had already learned their previous lesson.

They did not rashly step into the Yin Burial Ground, but they tried to collect all crucial information about Yin Burial Ground from the nearby towns or villages first.

Just like what they had expected, there were actually several taboos and rules that must be obeyed when they stepped into the Yin Burial Ground.

If they did not heed those taboos and rules, they might have to face life-threatening danger.

”Err, these taboos and rules are pretty simple.” Tang Li Xue muttered as she read the information given by Xiʼer.

First, they must not step on or dig up any graves.

Second, they must not mention their full names in the Yin Burial Ground.

Third, they must not make any loud noise in the Yin Burial Ground.

Fourth, they must not stay in the Yin Burial Ground for more than half a day.

Fifth, they must not enter the Yin Burial Ground after sunset.

Sixth, they have to register at the Hall of Rebirth and obtain their permission document before they can wander around at the Yin Burial Ground.

Seventh, there are several forbidden areas in the Yin Burial Ground, and they must never step into those forbidden areas.

Xiʼer frowned and replied to Tang Li Xue: ”But our objective is to get the corpses of the fallen Great Wei soldiers. If we follow these rules, then we will not be able to steal any corpses.”

”Who cares about these stupid rules?! We will just steal a few hundred corpses of the fallen Great Wei soldiers, stuff all of them into [Sword of Disaster], then run away as soon as possible from here.” Tang Li Xue said nonchalantly.

Xiʼer: ”.....”

ʼErr, excuse me... Does that mean I looked for this information for nothing?!ʼ Xiʼer thought in frustration.

Tang Li Xue really did not take those taboos and rules seriously as she took Xiʼer and the other to sneak into the Yin Burial Ground after the sky turned dark.

There were some guards patrolling around the edge of Yin Burial Ground at night, but they were not many.

Tang Li Xue and her team easily sneaked into the Yin Burial Ground without being noticed by the guards.

The Yin Burial Ground was filled with abundant Yin Energy and Death Energy.

No wonder they did not allow anyone to enter this Yin Burial Ground.

The highly concentrated Yin Energy and Death Energy here were very dangerous for any living creature.

Without Yang Energy from the sun to temporarily neutralize the Yin Energy and Death Energy in this Yin Burial Ground, the bodies of any living creature who entered here at night would be invaded by Yin Energy and Death Energy.

If their cultivation level was not high enough, they would fall sick and lie weakly in bed for at least one or two months.

Then, if they stayed here long enough, they would surely become corpses instead.

Current Tang Li Xue might be weak and fragile, but the destructive space energy in her body was countless times more dangerous than Yin Energy and Death Energy.

Forget about invading Tang Li Xueʼs body, those highly concentrated Yin Energy and Death Energy could not even get close to her at all.

For Xiʼer and Little Loki, these Yin Energy and Death Energy were tonic for them instead.

As for Yaya and Lucia, both Yin Energy and Death Energy could not affect them at all. One of them was the High-Rank Wind Elemental Spirit protected by the Wind God, while the other had the mythical beast bloodline, [Golden-Winged Great Peng].

Tang Li Xue sighed dejectedly as she thought in frustration: ʼUnfortunately, I cannot take any quest from System with my current condition. It is truly such a great pity since I may be able to get bountiful rewards if I can get the quests for escaping from Heavenly Prison, killing the Second Prince, and escaping safely from the Capital City of Great Wei.ʼ

Previously, Tang Li Xue had tried to get a quest several times from her System, but her System rejected it every time.

The reason was because she could not level up in her current fragile and unstable condition, or her entire body would collapse completely.

It was like a fragile porcelain filled with countless cracks trying to be filled with water, but the fragile porcelain could not hold it and crumbled apart instead.

Tang Li Xue shook her head in disappointment before she quickly putting all of those thoughts aside and focusing on doing what she had to do in this Yin Burial Ground.

”Letʼs go!” Tang Li Xue said to Xiʼer and everyone as she led them deeper into the Yin Burial Ground.

It did not take long for them to reach the burial area.

There were so many tombstones lined up neatly here, maybe tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of tombstones.

Tang Li Xue put her palms together and prayed: ”Please forgive my rudeness, everyone! Please let me borrow your corpses! I promise I will definitely use your corpses to do many good deeds in the future!”

Then, Tang Li Xue proceeded to dig one of the graves to get the corpse of the Great Weiʼs soldier.

Strangely, Tang Li Xue found that the grave she dug was actually empty!

Tang Li Xue frowned deeply as Xiʼer also informed Tang Li Xue: ”Sister Xue, the grave I dug is also empty.”

Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia also helped Tang Li Xue to dig another graves, but all of those graves were empty too!

”What the heck are these?! Donʼt tell me that the other people have stolen all the corpses buried here before us?!” Tang Li Xue angrily complained.

Tang Li Xue brought Xiʼer, Yaya, Little Loki, and Lucia to the deeper area of the Yin Burial Ground, but when they tried to dig several graves there, all of them were still empty.

Tang Li Xue was still unwilling to give up and tried to dig the graves from several other areas, but the result was still the same, all of them were empty without any exception.

Just when Tang Li Xue felt helpless, angry, and frustrated, Xiʼer suddenly tapped Tang Li Xueʼs shoulder: ”Sister Xue, look at that!”

Tang Li Xue stared in the direction where Xiʼerʼs finger pointed and found a transparent ghost in tattered armor a few hundred meters away from them!

”That is... the ghost of Great Weiʼs soldier?!” Tang Li Xue exclaimed in surprise.

Just as Tang Li Xue wanted to catch the ghost soldier, the ghost soldier pointed his finger in a certain direction before he disappeared all of a sudden like a ghost... Well, he was a ghost anyway.

Tang Li Xue felt really disappointed, but she curiously asked Xiʼer: ”Where is that ghost soldier pointing to?”

Xiʼer thought for a while before replying: ”That direction... He should be pointing to Hall of Rebirth.”

”He wants us to go to the Hall of Rebirth? Why? Donʼt tell me he wants us to register at the Hall of Rebirth and obtain the permission document first?” Tang Li Xue muttered displeasantly.

”Then what should we do now? Searching for the soldier corpses blindly like this should not be a good solution, right? I think we should follow that ghost soldierʼs pointer. Who knows if we can catch many other ghost soldiers later, right?” Xiʼer suggested to Tang Li Xue.

Tang Li Xue sighed and replied: ”I also hope so. Okay then, letʼs go and see what is inside the Hall of Rebirth!”

When Tang Li Xue, Xiʼer, and the other reached the Hall of Rebirth, it was actually guarded very tightly compared to the other areas of this Yin Burial Ground.

Tang Li Xue did not have any other choice than putting Little Loki, Yaya, and Lucia into her Systemʼs pet space and letting Xiʼer return to the [Sword of Disaster] before she activated her Perfect Level [Art of Concealment] and sneaked into the Hall of Rebirth alone.

With Perfect Level [Art of Concealment], those guards guarding the Hall of Rebirth could not notice Tang Li Xue at all, even though she blatantly walked right in front of their eyes.

Unlike the outside, there was actually no one inside the Hall of Rebirth.

Tang Li Xue wandered inside the Hall of Rebirth for a while and still could not find anyone there.
