‘After this ordeal, my status will soar even higher.’

“???” Qin Muye gave a look that screamed, ‘You think I’m stupid?’ and he added, ‘You’re late.’

“Could it be a discontinuity in heritage…?”

“Yes, it’s some bits and pieces we discovered from traces. It’s also a stroke of luck, I now suspect something huge must have happened here back then, otherwise, such an elaborate setup wouldn’t have been possible,” Qin Muye sighed and said.

“Fuck, I can’t think about this anymore, the more I think, the scarier it gets.” Qin Muye felt that the skill was useful indeed, but it was terrifyingly so, making him afraid to even call over the Spirit Monsters under his command.

...

“Alright, bring Chief Captain Jing along,” Qin Muye said.

“Okay, you really are late,” Qin Muye spoke, “You see this, this is the Yin Mountain Lord.”

“Okay, if it really is an internal factor, I think it’s probably impossible to find out now.”

“Professor Li, we owe a lot to you and Chief Captain Jing Siao for this one, too bad we were a step late.” The person standing before him known as Chi Yuan was an aid from the Shadow Administration.

“Professor Li, this time I am escorting you to the Imperial City, it’s too dangerous for you to stay here.”

“No wonder the last time we recovered a bunch of Shadow Skills from the Yin Mountain Army, there was such a huge reaction. It seems there indeed are many discontinuities.”

“We will arrange for personnel to be stationed here; this time it’s truly terrifying. The Seal being torn is a minor matter; the incident has already begun fermenting socially, and it will surely cause turmoil for a while.” Chi Yuan knew the Seal was just a triviality, the real concern was the people’s hearts.

“I’ll take you, Professor Li, to a safe place first, then arrange your departure,” Chi Yuan said, as he took Qin Muye away.

“Yin Mountain Lord? How is that possible? No, you actually found it.” Chi Yuan also appeared unbelieving.

“Someone else will handle this, my duty is to ensure that you, Professor Li, arrive safely at the Imperial City,” Chi Yuan said as he glanced back at the corpse.

“This time, I bet people in the Shadow Administration are having their minds blown,” Qin Muye looked towards the Yin Mountain Lord.

“It’s just what event could have caused such a discontinuity in the Yin Mountain Army who upheld human heritage?”

“It seems I am at the center of this vortex; I must find a way to resolve it.”

Chi Yuan bluntly said, if it were before, he would not have taken Qin Muye so seriously, seeing him merely as a minor professor who knew a bit of history.

From Chi Yuan’s reaction, it appears that the current Shadow Administration has not inherited such a weapon, otherwise, the other party would not be so surprised, not even having heard of it.

The Emperor Shadow is the mightiest of the Dead Shadows, with considerable combat power. Apart from the Chief Captain of the Shadow Administration, no one can restrain it.

After looking again at the emaciated corpse on the chair, if it weren’t for Qin Muye mentioning the Chief Captain, he wouldn’t have recognized it at all.

Even shadows could be destroyed, used as an activation medium from person to shadow.

If this weapon was in a sub-branch, it might be due to external forces, but if in the main branch, even ambitious people could rebel resulting in mutual destruction and then spreading the chaos across the world.

Even Evangelical Spirit Monsters could barely hold on, not to mention the other Spirit Monsters.

From his observations, the activities of the Yin Mountain Lord were all paid for by himself, and he also found the energy source, a direct technology to draw from the Shadow Realm, he suspected it might be someone’s Shadow Equipment ability from ancient times that was fixed into it.

After setting up Qin Muye properly, he went to report the matters.

Then, naturally, it was time for the entire human race to be exterminated.

Even if no other ancient weapons were found, with the Yin Mountain Lord present, that Emperor Shadow in the Shadow Realm wouldn’t dare to act rashly anymore.

Even if the entire city-level fell, it could be handled; only the system and the people’s hearts are hard to control.

As for the specifics, Qin Muye did not want to delve deeper, maybe the Chief Captain of the Shadow Administration knew something.

But even so, no discoveries were made.

If moved to the main branch, these people are accustomed to luxury and have considerable appetites plus each is adept at competing for power and profit, but they do not easily form a community of shared interest.

But after uncovering the ancient weapon named Yin Mountain Lord, Qin Muye was utterly awestruck and convinced.

Indeed, it was just a medium.

Even with orders from above, he was committed to resolving the Sealing first.

Whichever faction gained control of this powerful weapon could become the new power holder within the Shadow Administration.

That would be interesting when the time came. As for the matter of the Sealing, it certainly wouldn’t concern this group of people anymore, since they were above it all and just had their subordinates handle it.

Qin Muye speculated that it was unlikely to be external factors. If it were external factors, exterminating the Yin Mountain Army would have been easier than breaking the continuity of the Yin Mountain Army.

Qin Muye nodded in agreement. Indeed, to operate the Yin Mountain Lord, they definitely needed to deal with the corpse of the Chief Captain, who was still sitting there.

Qin Muye thought of this matter; even the existence of the Shadows could be edited out in history books, so it wasn’t impossible for such losses to occur when the Yin Mountain Army transformed into the Shadow Administration.

Qin Muye also knew that the Yin Mountain Lord had been directly unearthed, and he had acquired information about the Relic from documents several times.

Now, this balance had been disrupted by the ancient weapon, the Yin Mountain Lord.

Who knows if someone would see him as a thorn in their side and want to remove him quickly.

So, internal factors were more likely.

He was quite interested in this Yin Mountain Lord, but there was one thing he didn’t understand—how exactly it had been made.

The number of people in their city-level Shadow Administration wasn’t large, so everyone had a share and lived quite comfortably.

He had also noticed the issue with Qin Muye’s Shadow, but it was only at the Solid Shadow Stage and hadn’t transformed into a Shadow, so he naturally didn’t take it to heart.

He was thinking that after this busy period, he would deport all the Evangelical Spirit Monsters. Otherwise, if he continued like this, he would be fine., but these dispatched Evangelical Spirit Monsters would die first. Recently, there had been many casualties, luckily due to the tenacity of Life Force and considerable strength of the Evangelical Spirit Monsters.

Compared to an unknown dead person, he knew that ‘Professor Li’ had more value.

What else could it be, these temporary Skills were all at the level of Causality Law.

If there were fewer people, the probability of mental decline wouldn’t be so high. However, once inside the bloated system of the Shadow Administration, with a large number of people, the possibility of encountering mentally compromised individuals was high.

You should know that Chi Yuan’s position was not low, at least equal to a Governor commanding a province. He had greater power than any Governor, even possessing the right to execute before reporting.

It wasn’t without reason, such as grievances arising from a poor distribution of benefits.

Therefore, just shaving off a little each time could accumulate and gradually create a breakdown.

The Yin Mountain Lord was a qualified Biological Weapon, with few flaws apart from using Shadows as expendable materials.

This also showed that the cost of using the Yin Mountain Lord was not small.

There was a considerable possibility that before Qin Muye had the chance to form a coalition of interests, he initiated a purge that could lead to the destruction of the entire headquarters of the Shadow Administration.

The reason was simple. If an Emperor of any dynasty felt that the Yin Mountain Army was too powerful and sought to weaken it, he could gradually suppress it., one dynasty might not be enough, but in three to five dynasties, it’s unlikely that every Emperor in each dynasty would be wise and martial.

Ancient Shadow Monsters were also dominant in the Shadow Realm, and their numbers were very few; even having twenty of these creatures would indicate they reproduced rapidly.

Luck? Could a normal person have such luck?

This weapon was indeed a massive killer. The Shadow Administration, as an official organization, obviously had numerous factions. Everyone probably wanted it.

This perhaps should be regarded as the highest intellectual achievement of the Yin Mountain Army, a military force that spanned history.

The situation was quite awkward for Chi Yuan. He and the second batch of reinforcements had arrived early, but upon seeing the great battle between the Yin Mountain Lord and the Ancient Shadow Monsters and not understanding the situation, he hadn’t dared to act. Instead, he thought of sitting on the hill watching the tigers fight.

If this were brought back to headquarters and they found more similar ancient weapons, they might be able to counterattack the Shadow Realm.

It wasn’t until later, when the Yin Mountain Lord returned to its original form and Qin Muye opened the cockpit door, that he came over. The other party was probably there to escort Qin Muye, so he naturally recognized him right away.

As for the Shadow Administration confiscating the Yin Mountain Lord, he didn’t mind much., This thing was really tricky; generally, once someone sat in it, they couldn’t get off.

The most impressive was probably the Yin Mountain Lord’s Shadow Equipment loading capability, which could adapt to any driver.
