Chapter 148: Ancient Relic! The Third Elder of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan!

An Eighth-Rank Magical Beast already possesses considerable strength within the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python Clan, and its status within the clan would not be too low.

Venerable Tianhuo killed it, so it will inevitably alert the higher-ups of the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python Clan before long.

Although Gu Fei is not afraid, his goal after all is the Ancient Relic, and it is not wise to get entangled with the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python Clan here.

"Let's hurry and leave; this is, after all, the territory of the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python Clan!"

Xiao Yixian nudged Gu Fei, as Xiao Xianle was still fast asleep in her arms.

She worried that if more powerful individuals appeared, it would threaten the safety of Xiao Xianle.

"Alright, let's go!"

Gu Fei and his group did not linger; the two powerful individuals of the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python Clan controlled by Qing Lin were taken into Qing Lin's strange space, after which Qing Lin would be able to absorb the energy from their bodies.

The few of them continuously shuttled through the deep forest, searching for the location of the Skeleton Mountain Range.

"There really are a lot of snake-type Magical Beasts here."

Cai'er herself is a Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python; not only is she of top-tier bloodline among Magical Beasts, but she is also an existence at the peak among snake-type Magical Beasts.

Even the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python Clan, one of the three great clans of the Magical Beast world, cannot compare to her.

It is just a pity that the number of Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Pythons is too scarce; up until now, Gu Fei only knows of Cai'er as a Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.

"A bunch of annoying venomous snakes..." Because of the recent offense by the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python against her, Zi Yan felt very unhappy with this race.

Gu Fei's group advanced for a long time again, when suddenly a glaring, ghastly white color appeared before their eyes; this wisp of ghastly white appearing in this lush, green mountain range seemed extremely discordant.

"The Skeleton Mountain Range, we've finally arrived!"

Seeing this mountain range, a look of relief appeared on Gu Fei's face; he had finally succeeded in finding this place.

Zi Yan looked at this gloomy place and felt that it was not very auspicious, so she looked at Gu Fei and said, "Brother Gu Fei, the opportunity you mentioned wouldn't have anything to do with those annoying venomous snakes, would it?"

"This gloomy place... is a bit annoying."

Upon hearing this, Qing Lin disagreed with Zi Yan: "I actually feel quite comfortable; my eyes have become much brighter here."

Cai'er did not have any strange feelings.

The aura of the snake clans here was very similar to that of her own subjects.

"What kind of opportunity could there be here?"

Xiao Yixian looked down at the mountain range, hiding Xiao Xianle in her arms, worried that she would be affected by the gloomy environment here.

"Don't you worry, what I am giving you is the greatest opportunity in the whole world!"

Gu Fei patted Zi Yan's head.

"I once received news that there is an Ancient Relic here, and this relic is related to the ancestors of your Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan!"

Gu Fei's explanation was quite perfunctory and vague; it was a rumor anyway, he couldn't exactly say he was a transmigrator who had read the original story, could he?

"But with such a large mountain range, do we have to search it bit by bit?" Zi Yan lacked patience.

"What else? Cheer up, this is an opportunity that can let you soar into the sky!"

"Let's start searching from here!"

Under Gu Fei's coaxing, Zi Yan finally gathered some spirit and searched the Skeleton Mountain Range together with Cai'er and Qing Lin.

As the search deepened, they gradually arrived at the central area.

"There are spatial fluctuations there!"

Relying on her outstanding spatial talent, Zi Yan was the first to discover a piece of broken Space Seal.

"The Ancient Relic actually exists." Cai'er had also heard some secrets in her clan, but she didn't expect it to be true.

"Is the great opportunity inside here?"

Zi Yan was extremely excited at this moment, but Gu Fei knew that it was not yet time to be happy.

"Although there is a broken Space Seal here, it is still impossible to determine the specific location of the Ancient Relic; fortunately, there are finally some clues, let's keep looking!"

Upon hearing this, everyone let their heads droop again.

"Still not it?"

Zi Yan was helpless and could only continue to search for the location of the Ancient Relic along the broken seal.

They did not know that a large number of Magical Beasts had already quietly gathered around them.

"It seems this group of outsider humans is here to hunt for treasure... as the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind; once they find it, we will make our move!"

Their behavior of searching extensively was too obvious and attracted the attention of many powerful Magical Beasts.

Among them, there were also some people from the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python Clan.

The Magical Beasts hid themselves and did not alert Gu Fei, but Gu Fei and the others searched for several days in a row without any clues; even with the spatial talent of Zi Yan's Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, they had no leads.

Gu Fei was completely bewildered.

"It seems I can only ask the elders of the clan to come and help!"

Just as Gu Fei was thinking this, Zi Yan spoke up first.

"Brother Gu Fei, perhaps the Elder of my clan can discover the location of the Ancient Relic!"

Afterwards, she took out a Space Jade Slip.

After crushing it, a spatial rift was created, and an old man in white robes appeared.

The aura of this old man was extremely powerful and should have reached the level of an Advanced Half-Saint.

"The territory of the Nine Nether Deep Earth Python Clan?"

"Zi Yan, what happened?"

The old man frowned and asked Zi Yan.

"Elder Zhuli, it's like this, we are searching for an Ancient Relic here, but we can't find the specific location no matter what, so you've come to help."

Zi Yan hurriedly explained the situation.

"Ancient Relic?"

Zhuli agreed, looking at the mountain range before him; a moment later, the surrounding space began to tremble incessantly, as if resonating with Zhuli.

Gu Fei felt this strange energy and was shocked by the abilities of the Void Ancient Dragon clan.

Soon, Zhuli looked toward a certain area with burning eyes and said in a deep voice, "It's there!"

After Zhuli finished speaking, ripples suddenly came from the space not far away, the scene before them twisted like lake water and emitted a splashing sound like water being struck; as the vibrations continued, the sound grew louder and louder...

"We must retreat!"

Gu Fei knew that once the Space Seal shattered, there would be a massive space storm, so he reminded Xiao Yixian and the others; they followed Gu Fei and quickly retreated, putting enough distance between themselves and the danger.

"Could this be an Ancient Relic!"

As the twisted space in the center of the ocean of bones took shape, the eyes of those Snake-People experts who had been secretly following Gu Fei suddenly gleamed.

"Everyone be careful, the Seal is about to break!"

"Splash!"

The sound of the space twisting and trembling continued to grow, and even Zhuli, with his Half-Saint cultivation, found it somewhat difficult to stand there.

He manipulated his Dou Qi to continuously strike the Seal, making the Seal tremble more and more violently.

Finally, the twisted space emitted a "crack, crack, crack" sound and, before everyone's eyes, shattered into countless pieces like a broken mirror.

"The Ancient Relic has opened!"

The moment they saw the Seal burst, the eyes of those Snake-People experts turned blood-red, and they greedily dashed toward the center of the bone sea.

The fragments of the burst Space Seal suddenly paused, and a violent Space Power swept out in all directions like a storm.

Those Snake-People who had rushed over were swallowed by the storm in the blink of an eye.

The violent space ripples destroyed those Snake-People as if they were reaping wheat.
