Chapter 643: Chapter 643: Immortal Cheng, You Are Simply a God

Tang Sihai remained silent, his gaze fixed sharply on Cheng Yuan. "Cheng Dongshan, I’m still a bit confused. If the Tang Family’s ancestral grave is such an auspicious Feng Shui location, why do I keep having problems with my descendants?"

Cheng Yuan activated his Double Pupil, looking at the two small, connected mounds before him, which dipped slightly in the middle.

The two small mounds looked like a large pillow.

Right now, many small flowers were growing on top of this "pillow."

Even though it was night, many of the small flowers were still in full bloom, as if competing in a beauty contest.

Ordinarily, this would be a superior Feng Shui Formation, known as "Flowers on the Pillow."

But with his Double Pupil active, Cheng Yuan easily saw through to the interior of the "pillow" with his X-ray Vision.

At the very bottom, underneath the coffin, were buried dozens of rusted Bronze Swords. Their tips were aimed at the coffin, exuding a chilling, murderous air!

It was as if these Bronze Swords could shatter the coffin at any moment, slicing the Tang Family ancestor’s remains to pieces!

Cheng Yuan couldn’t help but wince.

’This adoptive father of Tang Sihai’s is truly vicious!’

’He didn’t even need to use Bronze Swords. Just placing a few copper coins would have been enough to cause problems for Tang Sihai’s descendants!’

’But Tang Sihai’s adoptive father, worried that the power of "Gold under the Pillow" wouldn’t be enough, actually went and acquired all these Bronze Swords!’

’What an extravagant move!’

"Mr. Tang, can the tomb’s guardian be absolutely trusted?"

"Of course. The tomb guardian is my very own third uncle! We’re as close as can be!"

Cheng Yuan nodded slightly. "Have him bring a shovel over."

"Alright!"

After a quick phone call from Tang Sihai, his third uncle, Tang Jian Countguo, came trotting over with a shovel, a confused look on his face. "Sihai, what’re you doing at the cemetery this late at night?"

Instead of answering Tang Jian Countguo, Tang Sihai turned and gave Cheng Yuan an inquisitive look.

Cheng Yuan raised a hand and pointed to the lower part of the "pillow." He said in a low voice, "Start digging from here. Be careful not to hit the coffin. The coffin is right about here."

As he spoke, Cheng Yuan picked up a branch and drew a line on the grave.

Tang Jian Countguo immediately bristled, snapping, "Where did this wet-behind-the-ears kid come from? Telling me to dig up our Tang Family’s ancestral grave? If you disturb our ancestors and ruin the family’s Feng Shui Formation, can you bear the responsibility?"

Tang Sihai quickly tried to smooth things over. "Third Uncle, this is Cheng Dongshan. He’s the Feng Shui Master I hired!"

Tang Jian Countguo rolled his eyes, looking utterly speechless. "Sihai, you’re only in your fifties. You shouldn’t be getting muddle-headed already! This kid hasn’t even finished puberty; how could he possibly be a Feng Shui Master? We absolutely cannot disturb the Tang Family’s ancestral grave!"

Cheng Yuan explained patiently, "As long as a direct descendant of the Tang Family does the digging, the ancestors won’t be disturbed. Besides, your family’s Feng Shui Formation has already been severely damaged! If you don’t adjust it, after all of Mr. Tang’s descendants are dead and gone, your collateral family lines will start having problems as well."

Tang Jian Countguo’s expression grew serious. It was true that Tang Sihai had been very unlucky with his heirs over the years. Of his many sons, only a single one remained. ’I can’t let my branch of the family get dragged into this,’ he thought.

Still, Tang Jian Countguo wasn’t about to obey so easily. He asked in a challenging tone, "Kid, you just told me to dig, but you never said what I’m digging for!"

"Bronze Swords. Dig down one and a half meters from this spot, and you’ll find the tip of a Bronze Sword."

Bronze Swords?

Tang Jian Countguo was incredulous. "Young man, I’m the one who supervised the relocation of this grave! I was involved in digging every inch of this plot. How could there possibly be Bronze Swords in our family’s grave?"

"There weren’t any originally. Someone secretly buried them here."

Tang Jian Countguo was furious!

"Don’t you spout such nonsense, kid! I’ve been guarding this grave for decades! If someone came and dug around the burial plot, how could I have possibly not noticed?"

Done wasting words on Tang Jian Countguo, Cheng Yuan simply raised his hand, formed a hand seal, and casually cast an Illusion Array.

The scenery before Tang Jian Countguo warped, and just like that, Cheng Yuan vanished from his field of vision.

Cheng Yuan’s voice asked calmly, "Elder Tang, can you see me?"

Wh—

That little trick from Cheng Yuan completely stunned Tang Jian Countguo!

"Y-You... No, Master Cheng! So you really are a Feng Shui Master! I, Old Tang, was being disrespectful just now. Please don’t take offense! I’ll start digging right away!"

Tang Jian Countguo spat into his palms, rubbed them together vigorously, then grabbed the shovel and started digging, strictly following the line Cheng Yuan had drawn.

Tang Jian Countguo came from a farming background, and his years of watching the grave hadn’t dulled his old skills. He dug remarkably fast.

In less than half a minute, he had dug down one and a half meters.

"Master Cheng, I’m about a meter and a half down now. Are you sure this is the right spot? How come I haven’t hit a Bronze Sword?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a loud CLANG! rang out.

The shovel had hit something hard!

An incredibly sinister aura spread rapidly up the shovel. In the blink of an eye, a black miasma surged into Tang Jian Countguo’s body!

Tang Jian Countguo shivered uncontrollably and instinctively let go of the shovel.

"There really is a Bronze Sword! This thing is cursed! Ugh... so cold! It’s freezing!"

Tang Jian Countguo hugged his arms, shivering violently.

Cheng Yuan raised a hand and formed a seal. A dense concentration of the Light Element erupted from his fingers, instantly enveloping Tang Jian Countguo!

SIZZLE...

The black miasma covering Tang Jian Countguo seemed to be purified, and it quickly dissipated.

Tang Jian Countguo immediately felt a pleasant warmth spread through his body, making him much more comfortable.

Tang Jian Countguo hailed this as a divine miracle and saw Cheng Yuan as a celestial being. He bowed formally to Cheng Yuan and said, "Master Cheng—no, Immortal Cheng! You’re simply a God! Thank you for saving my life!"

Cheng Yuan gave a faint wave of his hand. "Elder Tang, there’s no need for such ceremony. I’m no Upper Immortal, just an ordinary person."

Tang Jian Countguo was stubborn. "No! An Upper Immortal is a God."

Cheng Yuan smiled helplessly and didn’t argue the point.

Tang Sihai asked hesitantly, "Cheng Dongshan, are these Bronze Swords the cause of all the problems with my descendants?"

Cheng Yuan nodded slightly and said calmly, "That’s right. ’Flowers on the Pillow’ brings great wealth and honor. ’Gold under the Pillow’ cuts off one’s line of descendants."

The color drained from Tang Sihai’s face. He ordered in a low voice, "Third Uncle, dig out all those Bronze Swords immediately!"

Tang Jian Countguo looked hesitant. That Evil Qi from before had been terrifying!

Cheng Yuan saved him the trouble of refusing. "These Bronze Swords were refined for forty-nine days in a place of extreme yin, making them objects of extreme yin," he explained. "If an ordinary person touches one, they will be invaded by yin evil and left severely weakened at best. At worst, they’ll drop dead on the spot."

"Then what should we do?" Tang Sihai asked. "We can’t just let these Bronze Swords continue to bring disaster upon the Tang Family, can we?"

Cheng Yuan smiled slightly. "Mr. Tang, please be patient. An object of extreme yin requires another object of extreme yin to handle it. Besides, we’re going to give him a taste of his own medicine and cut off his family line!"

"I will follow all of your arrangements, Cheng Dongshan!"

Cheng Yuan led the two of them to the "Lotus Seedpod Delivering a Child" Feng Shui Formation.

Here, there were seven small mounds that looked like the petals of a Lotus Seedpod, clustered around a small platform in the center.

This small platform was like the core of the Lotus Seedpod.

On this lotus core were many small holes, and Luminous Pearls had been placed inside them, making them look like the seeds of a Lotus Seedpod.

This was precisely a superior Feng Shui Formation for conceiving children—the "Lotus Seedpod Delivering a Child."
