973: Chapter 278: He Hasn’t Won, I Haven’t Lost 973: Chapter 278: He Hasn’t Won, I Haven’t Lost Dongxu cried and made a fuss, behaving improperly at the foot of Guiwang Mountain.
On Guiwang Mountain, four figures appeared but not on the same peak, yet they greeted each other respectfully.
Someone passed the Moon-Questioning Gate and they were naturally overjoyed.
But unlike Dongxu’s uncontrollable emotion, they were all curious instead.
Guiwang Mountain is special — essentially, Xuanting, Zhenyou and Guiwang Mountain are actually one sect with three branches.
It’s like the Teach Cutting and Clarify Teach in Su He’s past life legends.
Same origin but not the same sect?
Not quite right, their relationship is closer and there’s no division.
Perhaps it’s better to say main and branch veins, it’s just not specified who is the main and who is the branch.
However, people only know about Guiwang Mountain, not Xuanting or Zhenyou.
Probably because neither Xuanting nor Zhenyou have ever had disciples appear…
Ji Feixue ascended in one step, not because she wanted to fly to Xuanting Mountain, but because Xuanting was drawing her.
This attraction was not repulsive.
On Guiwang Mountain, four people gathered, both old and young.
The elderly Taoist stroked his beard and asked, “Should we congratulate our junior sister?
Would the three senior brothers lend me some gifts?
I, South Easy Peak, don’t even have a blade of grass left.”
The boy-like Taoist boy glanced at him, “Naturally we should wait for the junior sister to come down from Xuanting Mountain.
It’s the first time climbing the mountain to see the heritage, and who knows how long it will take.”
It was his first time as a disciple and it took him over ten years to walk out of the Heritage Hall of Guiwang Mountain.
There is no Heritage Hall on Xuanting Mountain, but there must be similar means.
This junior sister, he had heard about her, possessing half of the Dragon clan bloodline, her talent was unimaginably high, the required time might be even longer – the higher the talent, the stronger the heritage encountered, and naturally the more time needed.
With such time, it’s enough for the junior brother to prepare gifts.
He glanced at the old Taoist, not wanting him to be stingy again and take advantage of others!
The old Taoist’s expression turned awkward.
Touching his beard as if he hadn’t heard the boy’s voice, he forcibly changed the topic and asked, “Besides the celestia flowers and dawn light, the Four Spirits Virtual Shadow and the roar must be the junior sister’s own preference to reveal, right?
Why did she use the Dragon Turtle Long Chant to start, not the Dragon’s Chant?”
This is the Genesis Land, naturally with some privileges.
Different people crossing the Moon Door receive different celestial celebrations.
On Guiwang Mountain, mostly Tao Rhythms appear, and Tao lights are elusive.
Xuanting Mountain, just hearing the name sounds much more fancy than Guiwang Mountain.
The boy showed a slight smile, “Why do we need to mention the relationship of this junior sister with the Dragon clan?
Perhaps she wanted to take this opportunity to tell All Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms that she regards the Dragon clan as equals?”
The two old ancestors of the Dragon clan were not present, and the fellows below pushed out a genius from the clan.
What happened to the Divine Beasts not killing each other, not targeting their own family?
Did the Dragon clan ever consider the junior sister as family?
The boy slightly furrowed his brows.
Ji Feixue ascended gracefully and step by step entered Xuanting Mountain, her figure disappearing into the light.
Only at this moment, outside Guiwang Mountain, the Fairy Drum finally started sending out sounds of drumbeats towards Mystery Huang.
Guiwang Mountain’s disciple acceptance was a rarity of ten thousand years, naturally distinct.
The drumbeats, like Heavenly Thunder, were transmitted across the lands, instantly attracting the attention of major forces in Mystery Huang.
But this time, after the drumbeats, the image of the new disciple did not condense.
Was it that Guiwang Mountain concealed the new disciple’s identity, or did that disciple not want to be too high-profile?
…
Splash!
With a splash, Su He fell into a pond, his four claws flailing as he leaped up.
Looking around, a cliff stood behind him with a waterfall cascading down.
Stars above his head, void on all sides.
The Wild Monk did not abide by martial ethics, pulling Guiwang Mountain in as an accomplice.
Fortunately, because his wife caused a stir, he could hitch a ride on Ji Feixue’s Gate-crossing phenomenon to escape hastily.
But just a short distance from Fenbao Rock, he ran head-first into an invisible Array — without sensing anything unusual beforehand.
Su He could sense, it wasn’t that he had taken the wrong path and encountered the Array, but rather that the Array had been attracted to him and crashed into him.
Placental Water Beads!
The Array was attracted by the water bead snatched from the Wild Monk!
The water bead had already been refined; Su He’s entire Turtle was attracting the Array.
This was not the Monk’s doing.
After the Array was a waterfall and pond, likely an original feature of Fenbao Rock, or perhaps a peculiar cave?
Yet this cave seemed to move freely.
Su He spotted two similar water beads under the pond.
The beads wriggled, each containing a tiger and a leopard embryo.
These water beads came from this pond!
The Monk had been here!
The waterfall flowed into the pond, forming a river flowing out.
Following the river would lead to Fenbao Rock.
Going up against the waterfall, one could also go out, seeing through the waterfall that beyond it was the waist of Guiwang Mountain.
This pond was like a secret passage, connecting Fenbao Rock and Guiwang Mountain.
The Monk must have used the pond’s water to enter Fenbao Rock!
Now that he monopolized the pond water, it was unknown how the Monk planned to escape.
Just now, as Ji Feixue ascended and went into Xuanting Mountain before entering, the glance she cast here was clear to him, but incomprehensible to others.
Su He understood her look: “Do not move!”
Although Ji Feixue’s passing through the Moon Door shifted everyone’s attention temporarily, it also pulled everyone away from their own matters.
At this moment, causing a stir in Fenbao Rock would immediately be noticed.
At this time, it was better to remain still than to act.
Su He landed in the pond, stretched out his claw, and scooped up two water beads.
These water beads must have formed after the Monk left.
Su He scooped up the water beads and looked down into the pond.
The moment he touched the bottom of the pond, the Big Livestock Divination in his Inner World shuddered slightly.
There was a divination here!
Su He put away the water beads, his claws swept, and he dived towards the bottom of the pond.
Indeed, the Big Livestock Divination started to tremble slightly.
But it hadn’t reached the point where it could draw Tao Rhythms yet.
