“Hundreds of years ago, Huatian Sect had the practice of recruiting disciples from outside the region. In the beginning, it was only an incidental thing to recruit disciples, but it was true to investigate that ancient tomb. Later, because they couldn’t get a clue, so it became incidental to investigate the tomb but recruit disciples for true.” said Cheng Mobai faintly.
Mo Fei nodded his head wisely and said, “Is that so?”
Cheng Mobai nodded, “Yes!”
Wang Weixing sat down beside several of them, “Rumor has it that there are life-prolonging potions in the tomb, innumerable top-grade star crystals, precious books on potions, and many extinct star herbs.”
“Shifu, are you also aiming at that ancient tomb?” Asked Mo Fei.
Cheng Mobai rubbed his hands, with his face showing a bit embarrassment, “I’m lying if I say I don’t want it. Too many good things in the tomb. Even I have to bow my head.”
Mo Fei frowned, “That tomb not only has a star beast at the late stage of heavenly class, but also has a heavenly class puppet.”
Cheng Mobai wide opened his eyes, “Disciple, how did you ever know?”
Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders and said, “The news can’t be wrong.”
Wang Weixing squinted, “In that ancient tomb, it indeed may have an evil beast, because before Cang Qian died, he did have contracted an evil beast, as for the heavenly class puppet, never heard it before. Where did you get the news?”
Mo Fei smiled, “In a dream at night.”
Cheng Mobai was full of surprise, “Disciple, good for you.”
Mo Fei laughed, “I just dreamt casually. I also don’t know why I dreamt of it.”
Rong Kingdom
A colorful glow from the direction of the Sunset Forest emitted out, Wu Gouyue was looking at the direction of the Sunset Forest from afar, eyes flashing some surprised light.
“In the Sunset Forest, after all?” Wu Gouyue muttered.
“Elder Wu, given this situation, the ancient tomb is about to reveal.” Someone beside her said.
Wu Gouyue nodded, “I am afraid so.”
She narrowed her eyes. She knew it. Without any other special reason, Lou Yu wouldn’t have transferred all people of Rong Kingdom to Chen Kingdom! It seemed that Lou Yu should have already known that the ancient tomb was in the Sunset Forest.
“Elder Wu, should we go and check it out?” A man beside said excitedly.
That man and Wu Gouyue both belonged to Wuji Sect, spies sent to Rong kingdom by the sect. For such an uncultured place like Rong, the man had already had enough.
Wu Gouyue narrowed her eyes, looking at the man, “Feeling anxious already?”
The man looked at Wu Gouyue and said awkwardly, “We are lurking here for so long, isn’t it just to take the preemptive opportunity? Now that we have such a chance, of course we should…”
Wu Gouyue took out a crystal ball from the sleeve, three spots were glittering.
The man looked at the crystal ball, eyes contracted.
“Someone is more urgent than you, three heavenly class masters have already gone over.” Said Wu Gouyue coldly.
“How is it possible?”The man couldn’t believe it.
Wu Gouyue gave a helpless smile, “So all those years, people all took action in the dark.”
Suddenly she felt the ground was shaking violently. The man beside her suddenly turned pale and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The spiritual pressure from a heaven class evil beast, even at a distance, it was still quite hard to resist.
“That evil beast is still alive.” Wu Gouyue said, squinting.
“Elder Wu, what shall we do?” The man asked carefully, pressing down his chest as the blood swarmed.
Wu Gouyue made a light sigh, “For the present situation, we can’t do anything. We should inform the sect first.”
The man nodded and said, “OK.”
…
Mo Fei looked into the distance, his eyes deep and distant.
“A storm is coming!” Mo Fei said meaningfully.
Lou Yu carried a basin of barbecue and came in, “Yeah, the rising wind forebodes the coming storm. Would you like some meat?”
“Yes.” Mo Fei hid away his sorrow on the face, and then walked toward Lou Yu with an exciting face. Eating is the most important thing!
“Before, in the Sunset Forest, the seal seems to be loosened, and t three heavenly class masters went to check things out.” said Lou Yu.
Mo Fei raised his head, saying with some curiosity, “Any results?”
Lou Yu shook his head, “Not very clear, however, the three of them stormed there but came back in a total mess.”
Mo Fei wide opened his eyes, “So they escaped back? What happened to them?” That was the heavenly class masters!
Lou Yu shrugged his shoulders, “It seems the evil beast inside the seal got restricted and couldn’t get out of the ancient tomb. But, it seems that evil beast could control part of the seal inside to attack those outsiders.”
Mo Fei frowned, “Really?”
Lou Yu shrugged his shoulders and said, “After all, the evil beast has stayed in the seal for over ten thousands of years. It is no wonder that it can control the seal!”
Mo Fei squinted and said, “I heard that a lot of people arm at the star crystals and potions inside. I’m afraid they’d be disappointed.”
Lou Yu squinted his eyes, “Why?”
Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders, “Don’t you understand? With such an evil beast inside the tomb, how many of those things would be left? If it were me, I should have already eaten up everything inside.”
Lou Yu squinted, “That sounds reasonable.”
“In fact, the most precious thing in the tomb is neither the star crystals nor the potions, but that heavenly class evil beast.” Wang Weisaid cut in as he walked in.
Mo Fei popped out his eyes, “That heavenly class evil beast?”
Wang Weixing nodded, “Exactly.”
“You know, that’s an evil beast at the late stage of heavenly class that has lived over ten thousand years. Its blood, its evil elixir inside its body, and everything on it is a precious treasure!” said Wang Weixing meaningfully.
Mo Fei nodded and said, “That evil beast should also think it that way.” The cultivators all thought the evil beast was priceless, maybe that evil beast would also think those heavenly class masters outside should be yummy and also nutritious. Having been locked in the tomb for so long, it should be desperate for meat now.
Cheng Mobai held his chin, “Judging from the current circumstance, that evil beast seems to be very difficult to deal with.”
Wang Weixing nodded, “Of course.”
