Chapter 1136 - 905: All Shi Hu’s Fault
"Yunmeng Mountain..." Jiang Yuan opened the system map, switched to the global map of the Wilderness World, and quickly located the vast, cloud-wreathed mountain range.
Shi Hu nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, at the foot of Yunmeng Mountain, there’s a huge palace not far from the entrance. The entrance to the Ghost Realm is in a large field of blue flowers right behind the palace, disguised very well!"
Ling Di couldn’t help but retort, "Since it’s disguised so well, how did you find and sneak in? There are layers of seals, and I suppose there must be demon cultivators watching day and night. Do you know the details?"
The other party drooped their face and said helplessly, "I mentioned earlier that this place is exclusively for the lord of Yunmeng Mountain and their confidants. Naturally, it’s under the lord’s jurisdiction.
There are guards, of course. But my strength is decent, so I sneaked past them and slipped in. Who knew it wasn’t a secret realm but a ghost realm! If I had known, I wouldn’t have come even if you paid me!"
"It’s not good to trespass when you know it’s someone else’s domain." Jiang Yuan said diplomatically, saving some face for him.
In short, that place was a sealed Ghost Realm, and the White Tiger was just unlucky;
If it were indeed the lord’s family’s training secret realm, sneaking in for some benefit is no different from theft, is it?
Getting trapped in the Ghost Realm might be the deserved punishment.
"Benefactor, I know I was wrong. Please, find a way to save me!" The White Tiger, having been rescued before, couldn’t sense the benefactor’s realm of strength, but whoever could withstand the Nine Nether Peach Tree was undoubtedly formidable.
It was at its wit’s end, and having found a ray of hope in despair, it could only cling to this lifeline and beg.
"Hang on a bit longer, I can’t just barge in. I have to meet Lord Sang of Yunmeng Mountain first, which will surely take some time." Jiang Yuan glanced at the system time; the Wilderness was about to descend.
It’s alright for him to be away; Hu Zhile would handle and arrange the trivial matters; farming, workshops, and public orders can all be managed through the courtyard communicator; except the matter of He Miancun and Du Li getting beaten, which cannot stop four times a day.
The tiger-shaped mark was initially used for summoning, and couldn’t sustain communication for too long, so it quickly dissipated.
Ling Di, seeing the master rise, curiously asked, "Are you really going on a risky mission to save it? I think this Shi Hu might be a bit dull. After realizing something was wrong, he didn’t even think of running out!
That place sounds very dangerous, maybe... we should just wait for it to ’complete the game’, the White Tiger Divine Power dissipates into the heavens and re-consolidates into a new small tiger cub. By then, we’ll just bring it back to raise it, rooting it properly, and surely it will be obedient and well-behaved."
Jiang Yuan: ...
Your abacus is so well-calculated that the abacus beads have hit your face.
"First, I’m worried that if Shi Hu really dies, the White Tiger Divine Power dispersing in the sealed Ghost Realm would cause unnecessary trouble; secondly, who knows how many years it would take for a new tiger to form?" He patiently explained, "If it takes hundreds or even thousands of years, the Wilderness World may not have that long to wait.
Moreover, Shi Hu shouldn’t be that foolish.
After all, the Ghost Realm is personally sealed by Lord Sang, located in the Lord’s Mansion, so the danger level should be extremely high, and it probably realized something was wrong when it was already unable to escape.
Places like the Ghost Realm are bizarre and unpredictable, especially with many oddities. The seal is tight, making it easy to get in and hard to get out.
I have to go personally. If it is willing to ascend as the White Tiger, naturally, that’s best; if not, taking the divine power back myself would give me some peace of mind."
Ling Di’s ears drooped down instantly, regretting that he couldn’t follow the master to make contributions.
Among the courtyard members and guests, everyone had important tasks, except for himself, who watched the gate every day, feeling somewhat useless.
Fortunately, the master said last time that he would take him along when heading to the Void, hoping to finally be of use to impress the master and perhaps earn a chance to become a divine beast in the future.
He couldn’t help but puff up his chest at the thought, but ultimately, he was still quite far from being a tiger. Even if Shi Hu didn’t want to ascend, he couldn’t impersonate the White Tiger.
"Sigh! Why didn’t Dog Grandpa have a majestic tiger body?" He regretted for a few seconds and then said angrily, "Isn’t that Elder Dragon stupid? Choosing not to be a Cyan Dragon Divine Beast, and instead willingly becoming a demon cultivator?
Humph! Must be mistaking the innate good fortune as their own ability, typical lack of self-awareness.
If not for the Heavenly Dao’s favor and the divine power’s blessing, could one easily become the spirit of heaven and earth? Dream on! Woe is me, if only Dog Grandpa had such a good fate!"
He mumbled and grumbled, watching Yan Xuan being called over by the master, clearly being instructed on important matters, while he himself was idly laying by the Spirit Pool, feeling more depressed.
He raised his head to gaze at the Menghua Treasure Ship passing by slowly, lost in thought, just as a communication stone delivered Sect Leader Cang Rui’s greeting message.
Ling Di no longer wished to brag, but his master could effortlessly snatch the divine format of the Azure Dragon candidate beast, which was so authoritative. If the sect’s children didn’t know about this, it seemed like a loss either way.
Especially since in this small courtyard, a future Azure Dragon would soon appear again.
Now the master is preparing to embark on a mission to rescue the future White Tiger, and it won’t be long, barring any accidents, before the future Four Symbols Divine Beasts are gathered in the courtyard. Such a significant event should at least be known and recorded by the Cloud Concealment Sect, becoming a valuable historical account in the future.
