Asha Ruya stood still and took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.
Afterwards, they returned to their original calm and began to investigate their purpose in coming to the ancient capital.
Walking past houses made of mud bricks and wood, Asha's Ruya finally arrived at a dried-up well.
At this moment, beside the well, there were not only herself and another attendant.
Strong men and short men are also here.
She had just walked around the small village of Yangyang and found that there was no running water or electricity.
In other words, the water source for the entire village is the well in front of us.
However, the well in front of us is almost dry.
Moreover, due to her special physical condition, she discovered the stench and traces of some kind of creature here!
That is the cursed beast of the Black Church.
Although the other party's method of cleaning up the traces afterward was very professional, basically removing most of the traces.
But in front of her, he was still like a greenhorn, completely exposed.
However, the current situation is somewhat different from what was expected.
Originally, Azharia came to the ancient capital to secretly meet Ye Chang, who was also Cardinal Salon.
Few people in the world know that Ye Chang is Salang, but Asha Ruya has a deep connection with Ye Chang.
Although they had long since parted ways due to certain events, each pursuing their own goals, and even becoming enemies when necessary.
But since she's here, it means there's a possibility of a conversation.
Not long after arriving in the ancient capital, Asha Ruya found Ye Chang based on the clues.
However, after the intelligence transaction ended, she received some very unexpected information from Ye Chang.
Those are the Black Church members who currently have the most members lurking in the ancient capital; they belong to the Nine Infants faction.
The members of the Black Church in Salang's camp have basically withdrawn from the ancient capital.
Furthermore, the tense atmosphere brewing in the ancient capital today is also caused by Jiuying.
In other words, the remaining traces of the Black Church in Yangyang Village were not caused by Salang's men, but by Jiuying's subordinates.
She originally wanted to get more information, but in the end she didn't get what she wanted.
After providing this information, Ye Chang left immediately.
It was only after Ye Chang left that Asha Ruya breathed a sigh of relief.
Because she noticed a huge change in Ye Chang.
Not only what she knew in the past, Ye Chang, as a cardinal, had been planning in the ancient capital for several years, but now she just gave up like that.
He even allowed another cardinal, Jiuying, to run rampant in the ancient capital, completely disregarding the fact that the other party had ruined his arrangements made over the years.
This is strange in itself.
But what was even stranger was the ease and casualness that Ye Chang exuded from the inside out during their meeting.
This state is completely unlike what the Black Church of Cardinals would normally exhibit.
Even when presenting or interacting with others in other capacities, one should not project an outward sense of relaxation or ease.
It's a bit like having enough confidence to withstand any unexpected events.
Azharia herself has a very keen sense of power.
After noticing something was wrong with Ye Chang, she focused more on Ye Chang's strength.
You wouldn't know it without special means of perception, and once you do, you'll be shocked.
The vast and boundless source of magic, like the starry sky, and the shadow-based laws that intimately surrounded Ye Chang.
She could immediately determine what changes had occurred in Ye Chang's body—
Ye Chang has been promoted to a Shadow-type Forbidden Spell Mage!
In her naturally affinity for the dark dimension, Ye Chang's incredibly solid and utterly unpredictable Shadow-type forbidden spell realm caused her to momentarily lose her composure.
How could Ye Chang possibly become a forbidden spellcaster!
Impossible!
Her adoptive father had said that Ye Chang had considerable talent in magic, but her highest level was only a peak mage.
That is, all four elements are fully mastered to the highest level.
If one were to forcibly absorb a core of the earth, one might be able to break through the original limits and advance to become a semi-forbidden spellcaster.
However, it is almost impossible to advance to the level of a true forbidden spell mage.
Because Ye Chang's talent and aptitude are what they are, talent and potential determine the upper limit.
But what did she see now?
Ye Chang not only advanced to become a forbidden spell mage, but also became incredibly solid.
This means that Ye Chang can independently cast forbidden spells.
It's not those inferior, low-quality forbidden spells that require external assistance to unleash.
That's a forbidden spell!
It is the goal that Asha Ruya has always pursued.
Only by advancing one's strength to the level of a forbidden spell can one stand on the world's most prestigious stage and possess a voice of their own.
She originally wanted to find out more about Ye Chang, but the other party left too quickly and she couldn't find her.
Her schedule remained tight afterward, leaving her with little time to spend with Ye Chang.
Because the information about the transaction contained very little about the village of Weiju and the Kunjing Spring.
In order to gather more information and gain more leverage in her future competition to become a goddess at the Parthenon, she had to personally travel to the destination.
That is, a village in a dangerous state.
Upon seeing the clear underground water source, the attendant retrieved a small bucket of spring water from Kunjing.
She leaned closer to Kunjing Spring, her pretty face beneath the black veil furrowing slightly.
She sensed that the Kunjing Spring was somewhat special, but she needed more time to analyze exactly what made it special.
It requires the use of sophisticated instruments for research.
Clearly, the conditions on site were not met.
Asha's Riya was not discouraged; it was just a matter of spending some time.
She can afford to wait.
After inspecting the key Kunjing Spring, Asharuya and her group arrived at the ancestral burial ground of Yangyang Village.
On the stones on both sides of the ancestral land, there are many well-preserved stone walls with inscriptions and pictures.
However, this script is a very ancient pre-Qin script, and even Asha Ruya, who considers herself very familiar with the ancient history of the Great Xia, only recognizes one or two characters.
The rest need to be taken back and deciphered.
The attendants nearby quickly took photos.
At this moment, Su Lan and Serafina, standing on the rooftop in the distance, had no desire to explore Yangyang Village.
After all, Su Lan had been here several times before, and now she knew things she didn't know before.
If Su Lan wasn't mistaken, Asha's painstaking and life-threatening journey to the ancient capital's Dangerous Village was to find out why the village had managed to survive peacefully for thousands of years in the perilous Undead Empire.
This act of creating a human sanctuary in the heart of the Undead Empire without relying on magic, protective formations, or force, simply by being an ordinary person, held a fatal attraction for Asha's.
Perhaps Asha's research and investigation will take a long time to unravel some of the secrets.
For Su Lan, who has a god-like perspective, Weiju Village holds no secrets.
After repeatedly visiting dangerous villages and moving between them as if they were empty, Su Lan combined the information and data she remembered with her final conclusion.
The reason why the people of Weiju Village have been able to thrive in the core of the Undead Empire without relying on magic is nothing more than fourfold.
