Chapter 172: Delicious Fresh Meat
Below the Green Cloud Mountain, Qinghe City. Below Qinghe City, the Mausoleum of Prince Qin.
This saying had been circulating for hundreds of years, and it was for this reason that Qinghe City had once been searched for.
People had searched everywhere except digging three feet deep underground, but hadn’t been able to find the location of the Mausoleum of Prince Qin, let alone its entrance.
However, at this moment, when the light maps projected from the four ancient manuals had combined, not only did it provide a detailed description of the location of the Mausoleum of Prince Qin, it also showed the entrance.
Sky Water River!
For hundreds of years, no one knew where the Mausoleum of Prince Qin was located. It was located below the Sky Water River!
Specifically, the downstream of the Sky Water River.
As for the entrance, external forces would be required to find it.
On the night of the full moon every month, when the moonlight shined down on the peak of Rooster Mountain on the southern bank of the Sky Water River, the shadow of the rooster’s comb projected in the river was the entrance to the Mausoleum of Prince Qin!
According to the description shown on the map, the entrance to the Mausoleum of Prince Qin was a hidden spring under the riverbed of the Sky Water River.
Even though the source of the Sky Water River was the Green Cloud Mountain Range, there were many underground springs in the channel segment.
For this very reason, for thousands of years, the Sky Water River never dried up.
Starting from the Green Cloud Mountain, it flowed through Qinghe City and headed southeast. Along the way, it converged with other large rivers and eventually flowed into the sea.
Since ancient times, in the neighboring cities on the two banks, countless people had relied on the Sky Water River to support themselves.
The water in the river never dried up. Naturally, no one knew about the location of the Mausoleum of Prince Qin, which was located beneath the river.
As for how the Mausoleum of Prince Qin was put under the Sky Water River, there was no way of knowing.
Based on Su Jingxing’s estimations, the Mausoleum of Prince Qin was probably reconstructed directly using an original underground cave that already existed.
It was just like the underground cave where the Concentration Fruit Tree was, a natural cave.
If it wasn’t a natural cave, it would have been extraordinarily difficult to dig out a large mausoleum under the Sky Water River.
Even that could be done, it couldn’t have been concealed given the amount of work required. Without at least one to two thousand workers, this would be impossible.
With so many construction workers and the location of the mausoleum so close to Qinghe City, it was impossible to conceal all this information.
Therefore, the only possibility was to occupy an underground cave.
Now that he had found this cave, and the entrance was known, all he had to do was wait.
Wait for the night of the full moon!
“It’s still the beginning of the month, and there’s still half a month to go before the middle of the month.” murmured Su Jingxing as he got the big white goose to stop glowing.
Then, the four ancient manuals stopped their absorption of worldly energy and slowly returned to their original forms as they fell from the sky.
Su Jingxing caught them and stored them in his palm space.
As a precaution, it would be safer to keep these four ancient manuals for now.
Ga! Ga!
The big white goose flapped its wings and called out twice.
“No need. It’s fine for now,” said Su Jingxing gratefully. “There’s no need to release more light. I’ll come back to you if I need that again.”
Ga! Ga!
The big white goose flapped its wings and slowly rose into the air.
Ga ga ga! Ga ga ga!
it honked quickly as it flew into the air.
“Err…” Su Jingxing made a guess and asked,” Brother Goose, you’re saying that you need my help?”
Ga ga! Ga ga!
The big white goose nodded fervently. With a flap of its wings, it soared into the sky.
“You want me to help you chase away a wolf? No problem!” answered Su Jingxing.
With that, he sprang into the air with a tap of his feet, keeping his body level with the big white goose.
Ga ga!
The big white goose called out excitedly.
With a flap of its wings, it flew towards the right.
Su Jingxing quickly followed.
Now that the big white goose needed help, Su Jingxing had to lend it a helping hand no matter what.
Drive a wolf away?
This wolf is most likely a Mutated Beast!
I just don’t know whether it is a Savage Beast or a Spiritual Beast.
Su Jingxing thought to himself.
He followed the big white goose through the air.
Along the way, they crossed ten mountains and finally arrived at the foot of a cliff.
The bottom of the cliff was dark and the ground was covered in rubble and animal bones.
However, some strange plants grew in piles of bones, and they were full of vitality.
As soon as Su Jingxing landed, he sensed that the worldly energy around him was extremely dense. It was about twice as dense as the energy in the valley where the big white goose resided.
The narrow area was only a hundred meters wide, but over a thousand meters long.
It was winding, and Su Jingxing couldn’t see the end of it with his eyesight.
“Brother Goose, that wolf…”
Swoosh!
All of a sudden, Su Jingxing’s figure flashed and disappeared.
Whoosh!
Just as Su Jingxing was about to disappear, a gigantic black shadow swooped down from the sky.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Strong winds howled.
It was terrifying, domineering, and fierce.
Like a tornado, it swept across the land.
He charged towards Su Jingxing’s original position. When he realized that Su Jingxing had dodged the attack, he didn’t stop and charged straight at Su Jingxing.
Da da da!
Su Jingxing stomped on the ground repeatedly and took more than ten steps to the right to dodge the black shadow’s attack again.
Boom!
The black shadow missed.
Its huge body made a huge circle on the cold ground, producing a loud bang. Its ferocious strength created a hole in the ground where Su Jingxing was standing.
Whoosh!
The sound of whistling wind filled the air.
Realizing that it had missed its target again, the massive body swiftly leapt up from the ground into the sky.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The winds howled.
The black shadow rose into the air, the air currents it brought with it swept up gusts of wind.
The powerful gusts of wind tossed up countless debris in its wake.
It was at this point that Su Jingxing got a clear look of what had ambushed him.
A wolf!
It was a giant white wolf over eight meters long.
On the left and right of its back, there were a pair of silver wings.
The pair of silver wings glimmered coldly. Even though they did not flap, the invisible aura they exuded sliced through the air with a strange buzzing sound.
Like a piece of cotton, the air around him split into strands of energy that stirred the empty space.
A cold, evil, bloodthirsty, and terrifying aura formed a pair of invisible hands that blocked all of Su Jingxing’s escape routes.
A cold energy even locked onto Su Jingxing.
Savage Beast! 99% of beasts with such auras are Savage Beasts.
While Su Jingxing was cautious, he was also very surprised by the big white goose.
“Brother Goose, how did you get involved with this big guy?” asked Su Jingxing, tensing up.
Ga ga!
The big white goose flapped its wings in displeasure.
Snatched something?
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf stole something from the big white goose and left it at the bottom of this cliff?
The corners of Su Jingxing’s lips twitched, but he said nothing.
Fine, since I’m already here, I’ll just fight it.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf stood in the air, its silver wings flapping in the air.
With bloodshot eyes, it looked down at Su Jingxing from above, its gaze filled with bloodthirsty greed.
Its body was as large as a small mountain, and it exuded an aura of looking down on the world.
It was as if Su Jingxing was a small prey shivering on the ground.
Prey!
In the eyes of the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf, Su Jingxing was nothing but a two-legged prey.
Such weak prey were basically at its mercy.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf looked at Su Jingxing as if he were a delicious piece of fresh meat.
Swoosh!
After staring at Su Jingxing for a moment, the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf suddenly swayed and disappeared in a blur.
Rip!
A blinding bolt of lightning burst through the air, its terrifying power leaving an unfathomable crack in the ground.
Hu! Hu! Hu!
Gusts of wind rose, swirling and whistling.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf was extremely fast, shuttling through the air without leaving a trace.
Almost in the blink of an eye, its massive body was right in front of Su Jingxing.
Right then, a cold glint flashed as a sharp claw appeared out of thin air. Aimed at Su Jingxing’s face, it clawed towards him aggressively.
“Great timing!” growled Su Jingxing.
He took out his treasure saber and moved forward to meet the attack.
Clang!
It was as though two iron hammers had collided, producing the sound of metal clashing.
Sparks flew as the saber and its sharp claws clashed, creating a shock wave that froze the air in its tracks. Then, like a spring that had been pressed to its limit, the shock wave was released.
Swish!
His body flashed.
Su Jingxing was sent flying backward by the rebound force.
Roar!
As he was midair, an evil, icy force surged down from the sky above, heading right for his head.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf was hot on his heels, not giving Su Jingxing any time to react.
It caught up to Su Jingxing at lightning speed and swung its thick, sharp claw at Su Jingxing’s head again.
If the blow had landed, Su Jingxing would have sustained severe injuries.
Buzz!
Su Jingxing was well-prepared, and naturally wouldn’t let it have its way.
With a furious roar, he circulated the Hundred Steps Reigning Fist to its limits.
Under the drive of true energy, the surface of his fist radiated a blinding light.
A terrifying aura erupted from Su Jingxing’s body then.
Thump!
The air vibrated.
Boom!
There was a loud bang.
A silvery-black fist imprint appeared as it broke through the air and swept forward.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf’s attack was forced back, and its massive body shuddered. Surprise flashed through its bloodthirsty eyes.
Whoosh!
It quickly retracted its claw and retreated at lightning speed, returning to the sky.
His bloodthirsty red eyes were fixed on Su Jingxing, flickering with fear.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf was clearly taken aback.
Su Jingxing wasn’t big, but the power he unleashed made it wary.
“Heh!”
Seeing this, Su Jingxing steadied himself calmly and mobilized all his true energy cultivation.
Ga! Ga!
Sensing it, the big white goose that had retreated to a corner quickly moved further out.
Roar!
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf also sensed a terrifying pressure enveloping the bottom of the cliff. It instinctively felt threatened, and its eyes revealed fear. It dared not attack again.
Once it began to be wary, Su Jingxing didn’t stop. With a low roar, he transformed into a blur and disappeared from where he stood.
Swoosh!
A ray of blade light that was like a whip suddenly flashed into appearance.
Immediately afterward, a domineering and savage silvery-black saber energy surged through the air with the Three Origins Saber Art. It appeared all around the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf.
In the blink of an eye, it had enveloped the wolf and slashed at its massive body.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A crisp sound was heard.
The sound produced by the clash of blades was pleasant to the ear.
Before the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf could react, it was caught off guard. The saber energy from the treasured saber had struck its body.
For a time, dazzling sparks flew from the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf’s wings
Like a meteor shower that streaked across the sky, they fell to the ground.
Accompanying them, a few feathers drifted down from the back of the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf and slowly landed on the ground.
This entire process was extremely fast.
The attack was swift and fierce, and by the time the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf could react, Su Jingxing’s saber had already struck its body.
Roar!
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf roared in rage, its silver wings flapping fiercely.
A terrifying force, accompanied by a whistling sound, slammed into it.
Astral winds swirled.
The power generated by the flapping of wings caused the air to tremble.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf darted forward at high speed, evading the overwhelming saber energy.
“Trying to leave?”
Su Jingxing caught up to it in a flash.
Swoosh!
The saber energy was like a rainbow.
The brilliant flare tore through the darkness and accurately struck the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf’s massive body.
Boom!
A loud explosion resounded through the air.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf’s body swayed, and it flew more than ten meters backward. It crashed into the mountain wall, creating a depression as large amounts of debris fell. With a series of crashing sounds, the debris kept falling.
Roar!
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf that had regained its balance was completely enraged.
“Again.”
Su Jingxing wasn’t afraid, however, and motioned for the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf to attack.
The next moment——
Swish!
Swish!
The two figures, one big and one small, crossed swiftly.
Then, they stood on two sides of the long and narrow area, staring at each other from a hundred meters away.
“The flesh of a Mutated Beast sure is tough!”
Su Jingxing held the saber in his hand, shocked at heart.
However, his expression remained unchanged. Without batting an eyelid, his gaze was fixed on the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf that was a hundred meters away. Admiration bubbled up in his heart, but he was also secretly on guard.
So far, the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf had not used its intrinsic ability to attack.
Su Jingxing had to take precautions!
The exchange of blows earlier also made Su Jingxing understand.
The suppression formed from his true energy cultivation of 400 years wasn’t invincible.
At the very least, even though the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf was wary of him, its actions were not significantly affected.
On the contrary, Su Jingxing’s suppression provoked the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf to be more angry than fearful.
Roar!
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf suddenly threw its head back and roared.
It opened its ferocious mouth wide and spat out a large cloud of icy-blue mist at Su Jingxing.
Buzz!
At the same time, the space around them began to tremor violently.
Before Su Jingxing could react, he felt his vision blurring. White light, silver light, and black light flickered rapidly. Subconsciously, he took a step back. At the same time, the saber in his hand revolved around him as he swung rapidly.
Upwind Single Slash!
Sweeping River Army Slash!
Ascending Dragon Overlord Slash!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Saber light bloomed as saber energy danced in the air, slicing through the walls on both sides and detonating countless rocks.
When he stopped, Su Jingxing opened his eyes and found himself standing in a boundless field of snow.
“An illusion?”
