Chapter 831 She Is Not Human

Li Xuanji, Han Dongwu, and over a dozen other powerful cultivators were the first to reach the deepest part of the tiger's den.

A chasm of ten thousand zhang appeared before them.

Looking out, the abyss was bottomless, shrouded in darkness.

A bone-chilling coldness swept towards them, making their scalps tingle and their bodies tremble.

Han Dongwu's expression turned extremely solemn as he gazed at the abyss, his emotions shifting unpredictably.

He had entered and exited the tiger's den countless times, but he had never seen this abyss.

When things are out of the ordinary, there must be a reason.

This abyss, appearing out of nowhere, was undoubtedly problematic.

Even with his early-stage Immortal God realm cultivation, a shiver ran down his spine, and he dared not venture in.

The abyss seemed to connect to the underworld, instilling in him a strong sense of crisis, as if descending meant never returning.

The others also halted their steps, quickly circulating their immortal energy to ward off the penetrating chill.

From the depths of the abyss, brilliant rays of divine light occasionally flashed, exuding an incredibly mysterious aura that tugged at the heartstrings.

It was clear that great treasures might lie at the bottom of the abyss.

A gleam of light flickered in Li Xuanji's bright eyes. Without hesitation, she made a decision.

With a soft cry, she circulated her immortal energy, formed a hand seal, and a shield of energy, emanating a sacred aura, enveloped her.

Then, without a second thought, she leaped into the abyss, her figure quickly disappearing.

Seeing someone take the lead, the others could no longer hold back and followed Li Xuanji into the abyss.

Only Han Dongwu remained motionless.

He watched the spot where Li Xuanji had vanished, his heart churning like a stormy sea.

"She's not human?!"

Just now, due to the influence of the abyss's peculiar energy, Li Xuanji had leaked a trace of her origin aura.

He happened to capture it.

Han Dongwu was somewhat stunned, never expecting Li Xuanji's origins to be so extraordinary.

Not human, nor demon, nor any other alien race.

"Interesting! Li Xuanji, Li Xuanji, are you a spirit cultivating a human body? Or an artifact taking form? Your true form must be an extraordinary treasure."

Han Dongwu's eyes gleamed with immense greed.

He sensed the aura of a divine object on Li Xuanji.

Rumors outside claimed Li Xuanji was a descendant of a deity, but that was false.

It was certain that Li Xuanji was either the spirit of a divine artifact cultivating a human form, or a divine-grade item that had achieved sentience and transformed.

Either way, it proved Li Xuanji's extraordinary value.

"Perhaps I can discuss with my father about finding an opportunity to keep Li Xuanji, subdue her, and use her."

A sinister smile curved Han Dongwu's lips.

Also, if great treasures truly appeared in the abyss, he would let these people fight to the death first, and then their Dragon Tiger Mountain would reap the benefits.

Originally, they had invited powerful figures from all sides to attend the grand gathering and open the Dragon's Pool and Tiger's Den merely to curry favor with these strong individuals and seek their help.

But if great treasures appeared, they would naturally not be given to outsiders; the benefits should flow within their own family.

As long as there were sufficient benefits, betraying trust was not an issue.

Han Dongwu let out a triumphant cold laugh towards the abyss, believing everything was under his control, as this was Dragon Tiger Mountain territory, his home ground.

He turned to leave, intending to find his father to discuss matters.

However, after returning a short distance, he felt something was amiss.

Glimmers of treasure light flashed intermittently throughout the cave, and many rare items were visibly appearing.

There were precious immortal stones, rare exotic flowers and grasses, and all sorts of strange treasures.

It was known that the tiger's den contained treasures.

But in good times, only one or two items could be found in a year, and in bad times, not even a trace for years.

For some reason today, these treasures had all revealed themselves.

"Could this signify that my Dragon Tiger Mountain will prosper from this day forward!"

Han Dongwu's heart was filled with joy, considering it a good omen.

He laughed heartily and lunged towards an immortal vine that had just sprouted from the ground.

Meanwhile.

Ji Mo would not be foolish enough to guard the entrance.

He had found traces of what he suspected to be the Heavenly Book and was determined to obtain it.

The Heavenly Book, also known as the Investiture of the Gods, a primordial spiritual treasure, was an item he could not let go of.

He entered the tiger's den and began to search slowly, looking for the Heavenly Book's whereabouts.

Along the way, many treasures voluntarily approached him.

Immortal stones rolled to his feet, and exotic grasses grew by the roadside he passed.

As long as Ji Mo casually picked them up, he could obtain items that others would fight tooth and nail for.

Xu Youqing, who was secretly following Ji Mo, was stunned, looking as if she had seen a ghost.

She kept rubbing her eyes, thinking she was hallucinating.

It was too incredible. Was this guy the chosen one? Why were treasures coming to him willingly, given for free?

However.

What made her eyes widen even further was that Ji Mo seemed to ignore the treasures that came to him willingly.

This simpleton only had eyes for the Heavenly Book now and didn't care about anything else.

"Idiot, fool, treasures are being delivered to your doorstep, and you don't want them."

Xu Youqing cursed inwardly, thinking Ji Mo was blind and didn't recognize treasures.

She didn't hesitate to pick up the dropped items, feeling extremely pleased.

This eased some of her resentment towards Ji Mo, and she felt that apart from being philandering and liking to cuckold others, this big sucker was quite alright.

"This kid, with Li Xuanji gone, he actually dares to come in."

Han Dongwu spotted Ji Mo, his eyes filled with killing intent.

But he wasn't foolish and naturally wouldn't act himself to avoid leaving any evidence and ruining his reputation.

Such matters did not require his personal involvement; his subordinates could handle them.

Han Dongwu waved his hand, summoning several nearby Dragon Tiger Mountain disciples, and whispered instructions to them.

"Elder, rest assured, we will make this kid disappear without a trace, guaranteeing no suspicion will fall on you."

Those Dragon Tiger Mountain disciples, with flattering expressions, promised that Ji Mo would not leave the tiger's den alive.

They gathered to discuss, quickly formulated a plan, and headed towards Ji Mo.

"Heh, daring to offend me seals his tragic fate."

Han Dongwu sneered, eagerly anticipating Li Xuanji's expression when she learned of her beloved's tragic death.

Ji Mo, walking along, suddenly heard someone calling out to him.

"Brother, there's a great treasure here, come and take a look."

In a dark cave, a Dragon Tiger Mountain disciple beckoned Ji Mo with a shifty look.

He lied about discovering a great treasure to lure Ji Mo over.

Inside the cave, several other Dragon Tiger Mountain disciples were already ambushed.

Once Ji Mo entered, they would swarm him and kill him on the spot.

"A great treasure? Then I really must take a good look."

Ji Mo walked straight over and entered the cave.

Then, a series of sounds that made one blush and their heart pound echoed.

"Hey, stop, what are you doing, no..."
