Chapter 926: Chapter 339: Rebellious Son, Objective, Strange Phenomena (Ten-Thousand-Word Combined Chapter)_6

But the people of the White Tiger Tribe immediately showed their deadly intent upon encountering us.

If it were for the sake of vying for a certain treasure, it might be understandable, but Yu Xiangzong lost an arm, thinking about it is maddening, truly an inauspicious start.

The Crown Prince remained calm and quickly transmitted his voice:

"Second Uncle, I’m afraid the White Tiger Tribe already knows we’ve lost four Purple Mansion members. If they could also leave us four at the site this time, then..."

The consequences would be unimaginable.

Yu Xiangzong was stunned for a moment, his spine chilled.

He gritted his teeth and said:

"Crown Prince, if that’s the case, should we use the Communication Jade Talisman to meet up with the Second Prince and his group?"

The Fish Eagle Prince considered it, but the second brother’s group has already gone mad in their pursuit of the Crown Prince’s position. Truly joining forces, I’m afraid we’d end up being betrayed. The Crown Prince furrowed his brows and said, "The only path before us is to seize the treasure of Dragon Transformation Mountain, allowing Father to successfully form a core. Only by doing so can we save our tribe from peril."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiangzong sighed inwardly.

The Crown Prince clearly considers everything from the perspective of the tribe’s development and the bigger picture.

Indeed.

Back then, he could have secretly assassinated the Second Prince, but spared his life.

Now it seems.

If only he’d known, even at the risk of displeasing the Crown Prince, he should have killed the Second Prince. Now, he’s become a significant threat.

The two flew forward for a while.

The Crown Prince looked at Divine Yin Mountain ahead, comparing it with the terrain map in his hand, and said:

"Second Uncle, we’ve arrived at Divine Yin Mountain!"

If we successfully obtain the Divine Yin Profound Water, Father’s chances of breaking through to Golden Core will increase.

Yu Xiangzong looked at the mountain ahead, resembling the Underworld itself, his brow furrowed:

"Crown Prince, the Divine Yin Profound Water was born in the Land of Ultimate Water, where Spiritual Qi should be abundant and water-attributed, but the mountain ahead seems eerie with no fluctuation of Spiritual Qi. I feel something’s amiss, should we circle around first?"

The Crown Prince looked again at the terrain map in his hand.

Determined, he said:

"Second Uncle, this is indeed Divine Yin Mountain. As for why it seems so eerie now, perhaps something changed over the centuries, but my great-grandfather set up an array where the Divine Yin Profound Water is hidden, we’ll know once we enter the mountain."

"If it’s not there, we can leave immediately."

The Crown Prince naturally understands the urgency and priority; Dragon Transformation Mountain is their primary destination.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiangzong bit his teeth and said:

"Alright, but I’ll go into the mountain first. Crown Prince, you should stay outside to support."

"Second Uncle, how can this be? You’re injured, you ought to....."

The words were incomplete.

Yu Xiangzong transformed into a shadow and disappeared from sight, landing in the mountain the next instant.

The entire Divine Yin Mountain was enveloped in layers of dense, ink-like Yin Qi, the surrounding trees all a shade of withered yellow, lifeless.

The mountain was eerily silent, with occasional beast roars or crow caws echoing in the vast mountain valleys, spine-chilling.

Yu Xiangzong patted his storage bag.

With a flash of dawn light.

An ancient, dark-red Array Plate appeared in his hand, looking centuries old, into which several techniques were swiftly infused.

Buzz!

In the next instant.

A rainbow light shone from the Array Plate, piercing the dense mist of Yin Qi, guiding deep into the mountain:

"It’s really here!"

Seeing the reaction from the Array Plate in his hand, Yu Xiangzong rejoiced inwardly, about to advance when the sound of something breaking through the air arose behind him. Turning back, he saw the Crown Prince had followed.

Yu Xiangzong’s face turned anxious:

"Crown Prince, how can a personage like you take risks? Let me retrieve the Divine Yin Profound Water; you must retreat quickly, the forest is quite strange."

"Second Uncle, if something indeed happens to you, do you think I, with my abilities alone, will safely make it out?"

Yu Xiangzong was momentarily speechless, but still worriedly advised:

"Then stay close behind me. If anything happens, don’t worry about me, focus on saving yourself. Don’t forget, you are the next Patriarch of the Fish Eagle Tribe, understand?"

"Second Uncle, rest assured, both of us will be fine."

The two continued deeper into the mountain, stepping on land soft and moist, each step feeling like treading on a sponge soaked with rot. Around them, skeletal branches twisted and tangled under the corrosive Yin Qi, resembling agonized, struggling faces, faintly visible in the dim light.

As they ventured further, the Yin Qi grew denser, visibility plummeting. The rainbow light from Yu Xiangzong’s Array Plate seemed feeble amidst the thick Yin Qi, yet stubbornly pointed the way.

.....

A day later.

A cyan light streaked from the north, stopping several miles outside Divine Yin Mountain; the cyan light faded to reveal the Cyan Flood Dragon. Fu Changsheng atop the dragon took out his terrain map, comparing carefully:

"Indeed, it’s Divine Yin Mountain."

But.

The Divine Yin Mountain before them, viewed from afar, resembled a Fierce Beast crouched here:

"I wonder if the Fish Eagle Crown Prince has already arrived?"

Fu Changsheng, worried, immediately exchanged some intelligence, but this time it revealed nothing about the Divine Yin Profound Water.

But here they were.

No reason to depart now.

Mental focus shifted.

Buzz!

Seeing the Spirit-devouring Insects from the Five Elements Grotto Heaven swarm out, accompanied by his sword point’s gesture, they dropped toward the mountain:

"Oh?"

But.

Once the Spirit-devouring Insects entered the mountain, he found himself cut off from them. Fu Changsheng approached slightly, his gaze upon the dense mist of Yin Qi:

"This Yin Qi can actually form a barrier!"

With a cold snort.

Fu Changsheng’s right hand formed a technique, and with a boom, the Nine Yang Red Lotus Flame roared forth, accompanied by a change in his Dharma Seal.

Boom!

The Nine Yang Red Lotus Flame surged forth.

Burning fiercely mid-air, the flames were immensely fierce, gradually dispersing that thick, inky Yin Qi. The Divine Yin Mountain, previously enveloped in dark gloom, was now illuminated brilliantly, resembling a burning purgatory.

The searing heat caused the mountain’s trees to burst into flames instantly, crackling loudly, the fire rapidly spreading with the wind, engulfing the entire Divine Yin Mountain in a sea of flames.

Fu Changsheng stood atop the Cyan Flood Dragon, eyes fixed on Divine Yin Mountain, monitoring the changes within.

After about half a tea’s time.

The dense mist of Yin Qi within the mountain burned away completely, Fu Changsheng’s Divine Sense scanned the mountain, discovering an ancient, fallen Array Plate deep within the mountain.
