[Zhao Chuan Yi (Buy peace talismans from me)]: It's truly amazing, there's actually something like this in the world. Doesn't this mean there might really be immortals and monsters in this world, hiding in those Lands of the Profane?
Scrolling through his phone, reading the unread messages from the group, Sun Yan felt like he had gained a lot.
He hadn't expected that someone in the group could actually figure out what the Underworld was all about.
Reading Profound Wisdom's explanation, Sun Yan suddenly had a lot of realizations.
What caught his attention most was the sentence, "Wherever there appears a great supernatural being or a great demon, there is a possibility that the area becomes a Land of the Profane."
There existed a Land of the Profane in the Youma Community, and Sun Yan had experienced it firsthand.
Although he quickly left at the time, with this in mind, it was quite terrifying upon careful thought.
Was there a great supernatural being or great demon in the Youma Community?
Thinking of that night when the Yin Messenger sought his life, the more Sun Yan thought about it, the more it seemed to be the case.
Land of the Profane, Yin Messenger seeking life, all because there is an incredibly dangerous entity hiding in the Youma Community.
It could be some kind of Evil Spirit, or it might be a person who is neither dead nor alive.
"First, a failed Corpse Dissolving Immortal, now a guy dodging heaven and escaping fate, this Youma Community really hides tigers and dragons."
Sun Yan sighed and then typed up a question in the group.
[Jackson (Gospel Town Cemetery Manager)]: Hello, everyone, recently I took on an exorcism job in the Youma Community in Chinatown, San Francisco. Just last night, I encountered a Yin Messenger seeking life. Does anyone know much about this place?
[Zhao Chuan Yi (Buy peace talismans from me)]: Yin Messenger seeking life? You actually encountered such a thing, what kind of unlucky constitution do you have? What did the Yin Messenger look like? Tell us, did you take pictures at the time?
[Zhou Haidong (Vice President of the Folklore Association)]: I've only seen records of Yin Messenger seeking life in ancient texts, but I've never dared to believe it for real. I didn't expect you, Jackson, to be so lucky and witness it with your own eyes; you truly are made for this line of work.
[Zhang Huatang (Hunan Stir-Fry | Glutinous Rice Delivery)]: Youma District? I'm familiar with that place, I live next door. Ask me anything, what do you want to know?
[Jackson (Gospel Town Cemetery Manager)]: That's great, do you know why so many fringe practitioners live in the Youma Community? I've met quite a few during my few days here.
[Zhang Huatang (Hunan Stir-Fry | Glutinous Rice Delivery)]: You asked the right person. The Youma Community is not simple; it is said that in the last century, gang wars among African American gangs led to frequent deaths in this area. Because there were too many bodies, there wasn't even space to bury them, so they formed a mountain of corpses and planned to incinerate them all at once when the time came. However, something went wrong during the process, leading to an Undissolving Bone being burned out. Since then, this place became extremely eerie, and it's said that people often go missing in the Youma Community, with their bodies never being found.
[Zhao Chuan Yi (Buy peace talismans from me)]: What? An Undissolving Bone! Is this for real; can such a thing exist in our times?
[Zhang Huatang (Hunan Stir-Fry | Glutinous Rice Delivery)]: I've only heard about it, never seen it myself.
Sun Yan looked at his phone screen in surprise.
In "Strange Tales," it simply mentions that there are eight types of zombies: Purple Zombie, White Zombie, Green Zombie, Hairy Zombie, Flying Zombie, Wandering Corpse, Crouching Corpse, and Undissolving Bone.
In the "Records of the Strange," it states that after death, some parts of the body remain intact due to infused spirit energy,
For example, a rice porter using his shoulder constantly may find that part of his shoulder bone does not decay after his death; such a bone is called an Undissolving Bone.
If someone manages to infuse spirit into their whole body before dying, they can turn their entire corpse into Undissolving Bone, making it far more terrifying than an ordinary zombie.
The power of an Undissolving Bone is immense; even a small piece, if ingested by a zombie, can lead to unusual transformations.
Sun Yan murmured to himself, "If an Undissolving Bone really appeared in the Youma Community, then the place becoming so eerie makes sense. Excessive Yin Energy would surely cause unrest, maybe all those fringe practitioners live there because of the Undissolving Bone."
[Zhang Huatang (Hunan Stir-Fry | Glutinous Rice Delivery)]: You'd better be careful; that place is very sinister—several fringe practitioners have mysteriously disappeared. It's not a good place. A few years ago, I heard there was a zombie incident in the Youma Community that sucked the blood of many people. It was only handled when some priests went there with crosses. No one knows where the zombies were taken for research afterward.
Zombies, creatures from folklore, lack concrete evidence of their existence.
They are said to gather the resentment and death energy of the world, born from gloom.
Ageless, undying, indestructible, discarded by the six paths of reincarnation, wandering without a home.
With rigid bodies, they strength from resentment in the human world and live on blood.
They are terrifying creatures that ordinary people can't contend with.
[Jackson (Gospel Town Cemetery Manager)]: Okay, thank you. I'll be careful.
[Zhao Chuan Yi (Buy peace talismans from me)]: You, if you need anything, just let me know, and I'll send you some peace talismans.
Sun Yan chuckled, admitting that the members of the Folklore Association were quite supportive of one another.
Living overseas, one must be united to survive better.
Meanwhile, in a certain room within the apartment building.
"Cough, cough, cough, I don't have much time left. Those Yin Messengers are coming for me again. If you don't make a decision soon, once I die, your husband will have no hope of resurrection."
"Is there really no other way? My child is so young; he is my flesh and blood."
"It's your choice, your husband or your child. Hurry up, I can't hold on much longer. Once I die, there will be no one to preserve your husband's corpse."
In the dimly lit room, two figures sat at a table, communicating in shadowy exchanges.
"What should I do..."
"It's simple. Have your child go into that room. Leave the rest to me. Growing up on offerings under your deliberate control, his flesh and blood are extremely pure, the perfect Child's Flesh and Blood. Such a precious resource ensures your husband can be resurrected and brought back to life. Then you and your husband can be reunited, and what fear of not having children again?"
"But..."
"I need an answer by tonight. If you want your husband's resurrection, tonight is the best auspicious time. Missing it means missing the opportunity. Now go back and think it over."
Once the other person got up and left, the remaining figure covered his mouth and chuckled evilly:
"A soul without spirit, a spirit without soul, a failed immortal, beyond the six paths... dodging heaven and escaping fate, my life under my own command!"
