Chapter 39: Ancient Divine Treasury, An Invitation to the Kunpeng Yichao

~9 min read 1,702 words

"You still want to fight back? If you have the ability, then go ahead and show me," the old man said coldly with a look of disdain.

He was a dignified Venerable of the Taigu Shenshan, famous for many years, and had never been threatened like this before.

"Fine! You said it yourself; if you get hurt, you brought it on yourself."

In an instant, Mengchen's ten Cave Heavens opened fully once more, blooming with brilliant radiance, as dazzling as ten suns.

His sword-like brows furrowed slightly, golden light overflowed from his eyes, and his orange monk's robe fluttered; illuminated by the radiance of the Cave Heavens, he looked like a miniature Golden Body Dharma Image, exceptionally eye-catching and solemn.

Seeing the Cave Heavens rising one after another behind him, the old man's ferocious expression instantly softened.

"Ten Cave Heavens! And a bald one at that!"

Isn't this the bald Supreme who has been notorious lately?

The old man pushed his hands out to signal Mengchen to stop, saying, "Stop, you don't need to fight back. I have something to say; I am going to offer you a heaven-sent opportunity."

Afraid before even fighting? Are you playing with me? Mengchen retracted his ten Cave Heavens and clicked his tongue in secret.

If it weren't for the fact that he was in the wrong first and had offended the man's granddaughter, he would have really wanted to go up and pluck two hairs from his beard.

"Since we aren't fighting, I'm leaving!" Saying this, Mengchen jumped down from the ancient tree and prepared to depart.

"Shameless bald head!"

The girl in purple cursed aloud, wanting to move in to kill him.

"Xi'er, stop!" The old man flashed out and intercepted her instantly.

"Oh, Grandpa, this bald head bullied your granddaughter; are we just going to let it go like this?" The girl in purple tugged at the old man's sleeve and acted spoiled.

The old man raised his hand to gently pat the girl's palm, comforting her for a moment with a pitying gaze.

Afterward, he called out to Mengchen's back, "Little friend, wait. Did you hear what I just said? I have a great opportunity to bestow upon you."

There really are so many old swindlers in this Void God Realm! Mengchen shook his head inwardly; he hadn't even settled his accounts with Old Man Spirit Coin and Bird Grandpa yet, and now another old man had popped up wanting to bestow a great opportunity.

If there really were some great opportunity, would it ever be his turn?

Mengchen was clear-headed and did not believe what the old man said; he walked straight ahead, showing no intention of stopping to pay attention.

"You don't believe me?" the old man asked suspiciously.

"If someone suddenly appeared and said something similar to you, would you believe it? Do you think I'm stupid, or do you think you look like an old immortal here to hand out opportunities?"

Mengchen responded for once, but he did not turn back, continuing to walk further and further away.

"The opportunity I refer to concerns the lair of one of the Ten Fiends. Are you truly not tempted?" Hearing his response, the old man shouted instantly.

Hearing "lair of one of the Ten Fiends," Mengchen stopped.

In the last Ten Fiends' lair, he had obtained Heizi, and he would surely be able to learn the Nine Nether Ao Precious Technique from Heizi in the future.

Now that he heard of a Ten Fiends' lair again, how could he not be tempted?

The Ten Fiends! They were transcendent existences; whatever they left behind must be the most precious opportunity in the world.

"Might as well listen before making a decision." Mengchen turned around and walked toward the old man and the girl in purple.

Seeing him turn back, the old man smiled and said lightly, "Within our Taigu Shenshan, someone discovered an inscription left by a god, stating that in this Beihai region of the Huangyu, there is an ancient Kunpeng Yichao. It is inferred that it may contain a long-lost, peerless precious technique."

"An inscription left by a god? Ancient Kunpeng?" Hearing this, Mengchen's heart surged instantly.

"Since there is such an opportunity, why not look for someone else instead of coming to me?" Soon, Mengchen's face was filled with suspicion.

It was the same old saying: if it were truly a great opportunity, how would it ever be his turn, especially one that came knocking on his door?

This forced him to be suspicious.

"That is a forbidden land with many requirements. Only those in the Spirit Transformation Realm can enter, and only those who have opened ten Cave Heavens can open the Kunpeng Yichao," the old man said.

After listening, Mengchen finally understood!

So it was because he had opened ten Cave Heavens that they came looking for him.

"I knew it wasn't that simple. What? You want me to go and pave the way for you?" Mengchen's expression turned cold. This old fellow truly had ill intentions; he wanted to use him as a pioneer to clear the path for them.

Not to mention how dangerous the Kunpeng Yichao was, even if he really obtained the opportunity left behind by the Ten Fiends Kunpeng, they would certainly not let him leave safely with it.

This old fellow was indeed no good; in the end, he would definitely jump out to make things difficult or even try to kill him.

Sensing that Mengchen was gradually becoming guarded, the old man explained lightly:

"Only those with ten Cave Heavens can open it. If there are no ten Cave Heavens, our people cannot enter, so you don't need to worry about us harming you."

"Furthermore, only those in the Spirit Transformation Realm can enter, so old fellows like us cannot interfere in the competition for opportunities between those of the same realm."

"That does make some sense!" Mengchen whispered slowly.

Indeed, Mengchen thought that competition for opportunities between those of the same realm was nothing; he had already reached the extreme state of the Cave Heaven realm and was already at the Great Perfection, and breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Realm was just around the corner.

Additionally, he still had Gangzi as his trump card; even if he encountered any danger, he would surely be able to turn it into safety.

"By the way, I heard you have been looking for Bear Child these past two days, wanting to spar with him. He will also be going, so you can take the opportunity to fight him then and fulfill your wish."

Seeing that Mengchen seemed tempted, the old man deliberately brought up Bear Child.

A few days ago, he had already agreed with Bear Child to go to Beihai together, and now that the bald youth before him wanted to fight Bear Child, he threw out this piece of news.

The old man thought that with this news, the youth's restless heart would surely accept his invitation.

If it weren't for the fact that having an extra youth Supreme with ten Cave Heavens would be safer, he wouldn't have come to find this little bald head; after all, one more person meant a lower probability of obtaining the opportunity, not to mention this kind of youth Supreme who had opened ten Cave Heavens and was outrageously strong. "Bear Child is going too?" Mengchen was suddenly energized; his purpose in coming to Spirit World was to fight him, but he hadn't been able to fulfill that wish in these three days.

Now that he heard Bear Child was also going to the Kunpeng Nest, he was naturally very interested.

"Yes, Bear Child will definitely be there. Since he dares to go, I assume you wouldn't be afraid to?" the old man said, using a goading tactic.

"Fine! I accept." Mengchen said suddenly, without warning.

Hearing the bald youth accept the invitation, the old man was all smiles, cupping his hands and being extremely polite to him.

"That is truly wonderful. Then I shall congratulate you in advance, little friend, on obtaining the fortune of the Ten Fiends."

"If I obtain the fortune of the Ten Fiends, wouldn't that mean you won't get it? Can you really be this happy when the time comes?" Mengchen said meaningfully.

The old man put on a righteous appearance.

"Fortune is always obtained by those with affinity. If you, little friend, truly obtain the Ten Fiends' fortune in the end, I will certainly congratulate you sincerely, just as I am doing today."

"Furthermore, little friend, the power behind you is not insignificant; if others wish to make a move against you, I fear they would have to weigh it very carefully."

Mengchen did not find the old man's words surprising.

For a powerhouse like him, he was naturally well-informed; after all, this bald image was very easy to recognize.

Indeed, the Western Sect is a major sect of the Xuan Domain, and even placed here in the Huangyu, it is a top-tier existence.

"It seems there is no need to be overly concerned about this trip to the Beihai of the Huangyu," Mengchen said to himself secretly.

Presumably, even if he really encountered danger, now that he is a successor of the Ancient Monk Lineage, Gangzi would naturally not stand by and do nothing.

"Good! I hope little friend breaks through to the Spirit Transformation Realm as soon as possible! At that time, we shall discuss the departure date in the Xushen Jie."

"This old man will take his leave first; farewell, little friend!"

Having said that, the old man prepared to leave with the girl in purple.

"Good! Once I break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, I will come to the Xushen Jie to find you."

Finally, both sides said their goodbyes, and Mengchen also slowly walked toward the Initial Domain.
