Chapter 546 Likely To Be Doomed

If Zhang Tian was not mistaken, the tomb of the King of Xian was in that small temple, but finding the temple was a bit difficult. He looked out the window. The sky outside was gradually darkening. It was clear that night was approaching. As night fell, Fatty began to snore loudly on the bed. Hu Bayi and the others sat cross-legged on the beds, consolidating their cultivation. Shirley Yang, however, did not cultivate. She lay on the bed and slept. In her opinion, sleep was essential to maintain her best condition. Moreover, Shirley Yang had a habit of sleeping early. As the night grew deeper, a rapid panting sound suddenly came from the workshop. The sound was like someone running, very tired, and very intense. "Fatty, keep it down." Zhang Tian didn't even open his eyes. "Boss, it's not me." Fatty looked innocent. No matter how uncouth he was, he wouldn't do such a thing in public. Zhang Tian opened his eyes slightly. He looked towards the source of the sound. It was Shirley Yang! Shirley Yang's face was covered in sweat, her forehead drenched. She occasionally let out a low moan. Hu Bayi also opened his eyes, and everyone's gaze fell on Shirley Yang. "Old Hu, your wife is having a nightmare." Fatty said with a smile. "Go to hell!" Hu Bayi slapped Fatty away. This guy was too loose-lipped. However, as Shirley Yang's face became increasingly distressed, Hu Bayi could no longer bear it. "Yang!" He waved his hand over Shirley Yang. Shirley Yang's eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes slowly opened. She looked at Hu Bayi with a bit of confusion. "What's wrong?" Hu Bayi asked softly, his eyes filled with concern. Shirley Yang touched her head; the drowsy feeling made her uncomfortable. "I had a dream, a very strange one," Shirley Yang said. "A dream? What dream!" Hu Bayi was puzzled. Shirley Yang didn't usually have dreams, and now she not only dreamed but also seemed to have a fever. Zhang Tian frowned slightly. Shirley Yang was a prophet, meaning her dreams had some value. This was why Zhang Tian had asked Shirley Yang to join them. Shirley Yang was not only a prophet but also quite capable. "Miss Yang, what did you dream about? Can you tell us?" Zhang Tian asked. Shirley Yang nodded and began to recall her dream. "I dreamed we arrived at a very strange village, and the people in the village wore peculiar clothes..." "We were chased by those people, and we seemed to be poisoned. It looked terrifying. Most importantly, we were chased into a valley, and the valley looked vast." Shirley Yang said, but she couldn't recall anything more. Zhang Tian was confused. Given their cultivation, no one should be able to chase them. Unless, Shirley Yang's dream was inaccurate. "It must have been an illusion. It's okay, Miss Yang, you sleep. We'll protect you here," Zhang Tian said, taking out his compass. He had planned to divine tomorrow, but after Shirley Yang's experience, Zhang Tian decided to divine today. Shirley Yang glanced at Hu Bayi and nodded, then lay back down on the bed. Zhang Tian spun his compass. "White Tiger shines upon the stars, Vermilion Bird governs the universe, Taiyi sets the Eight Trigrams, Azure Dragon hides within." Zhang Tian's hands moved continuously over the compass. The compass needle began to spin. As Zhang Tian's spiritual power continuously flowed into it, the Qiankun Disk began to shake. In the next moment, the cracks on the already cracked compass increased. The compass needle slowly stopped. The first hexagram, "Wei Huo Hu!" Wei Huo Hu, also known as Jiujiang, is named after the tail of the Canglong constellation. The nine stars of the Wei constellation form the tail of the Canglong, and the dragon's tail is considered ominous. This meant that Zhang Tian's first divination resulted in an ominous sign. Furthermore, the tail of the Canglong constellation was a dangerous constellation, where one was vulnerable to sneak attacks from the rear, so Zhang Tian needed to guard against backstabbing. The second hexagram! Zhang Tian looked at the needle on the second hexagram. The needle spun continuously and stopped on a constellation within moments. The needle slowly stopped. As the Eight Trigrams appeared, Zhang Tian gradually saw a hexagram. "Nü Shi Fu!" "Nü Shi Fu, belongs to Earth, brings fortune, mostly auspicious!" In ancient times, women used winnowing baskets to sift grain, separating the good from the bad, hence the Nü constellation was often auspicious. In other words, encountering this hexagram meant breaking through the clouds and seeing a new world. "Hmm, this hexagram is good." Zhang Tian nodded with satisfaction. Although the first hexagram was somewhat disturbing, the second was surprisingly good. Now, it was time to see the third hexagram. With Zhang Tian's current strength, he could try to divine the fourth hexagram. However, because the current compass lacked the ability to divine the fourth hexagram, Zhang Tian could only divine three. The compass already had cracks from previous divinations, and Zhang Tian worried that if he divined the fourth hexagram, the compass might not hold up. If the compass shattered, he would have no artifact for divination in the future. Zhang Tian's hands moved continuously again. Immediately, the mechanisms on the compass began to shift, and the needles moved. The Eight Trigrams on the compass and the arrangement of constellations were gradually changing. Within a few minutes, the needle stopped at a position. "Xing Ri Ma!" The needle slowly stopped on an ominous trigram, and also on Xing Ri Ma in the constellation. Xing Ri Ma, the eye of the Vermilion Bird, hence it is largely ominous. Constellations on duty bring sorrow, with more bad than good and unexpected disasters. Zhang Tian swallowed. Well, it was a mix of ominous and auspicious, and now it was another ominous sign. This Xing Ri Ma was quite potent. If Zhang Tian was not mistaken, Xing Ri Ma represented sudden unexpected disasters for family members. And Zhang Tian's family was in Beili, so it couldn't be his parents. Therefore, Zhang Tian estimated that Xing Ri Ma referred to Shirley Yang, or the Princess Consort. After all, only these two could be considered wives to Hu Bayi and Fatty. This way, it should be specifically targeting them. Zhang Tian took a deep breath. There was a fourth hexagram, but he couldn't divine it. "Forget it, if I can get a stronger divination board in the future, perhaps I can divine the fourth hexagram." Zhang Tian sighed in his heart, but thinking about the three divined hexagrams, he frowned slightly. These hexagrams were ones he hadn't divined before. In the past, Gui Jin Yang appeared more often. But this time, Gui Jin Yang was gone, replaced by ominous hexagrams. "Boss, how is it?" Hu Bayi asked curiously when he saw Zhang Tian divining. Fatty also turned his gaze. His small eyes were full of curiosity. Zhang Tian shook his head slightly. "The secrets of heaven must not be revealed," Zhang Tian said. Hu Bayi nodded. Since Zhang Tian couldn't say, it must concern them. If it didn't concern them, Zhang Tian would have said it. "Boss, just tell us, are we going to be safe or in danger this time?" Fatty blinked. Zhang Tian thought for a moment. "More bad than good!" After saying this, Fatty and Hu Bayi's hearts sank. If Zhang Tian said so, then it was likely that bad outweighed good. Recalling Shirley Yang's dream, Hu Bayi began to worry.
