Chapter 353: Civil Strife in the Water Yuan Kingdom

Xu Que was stunned for a moment, somewhat taken aback.

Listening to the Black Monkey King's words, could it be that this place was isolated from the world before?

"Eh? Five Elements Seal?"

At this moment, Er Gouzi suddenly muttered a sentence. Following that, its dog face changed abruptly, and it said in shock: "The Five Elements Seal, isn't that the Five Elements Mountain recorded in ancient books? Could that ancestor of yours be the one suppressed five million years ago?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Que was also stunned.

The creature suppressed by the Five Elements Mountain is the ancestor of this group of black monkeys? Is it also a monkey?

Damn, could it be such a coincidence?

"Roar..."

Just at this moment, a deafening beast roar suddenly rang out, spreading through the entire forest!

All the black monkeys changed their expressions, and the Black Monkey King also frowned tightly, looking coldly at Xu Que and Er Gouzi.

"Hmph, the elders in the clan are calling us back. You're lucky this time, I'll spare you for now!"

After speaking, the Black Monkey King turned into a wisp of black shadow and instantly fled into the distance! The other monkeys also flashed one after another, countless black shadows like vengeful ghosts, quickly following the Black Monkey King and darting toward the depths of the forest.

"Wait! Is your ancestor named Sun Wukong?"

Xu Que was shocked and shouted loudly, preparing to chase after them to ask clearly.

Boom!

Suddenly, a dull thud came from the void, like thunder ringing in his ears!

Xu Que's body stalled, pulled by an invisible force, and he was suddenly bounced back as if he had collided with cotton.

The next moment, the forest in front of him suddenly blurred, like ink dripping onto white paper, suddenly turning into a turbid mess!

With a 'whoosh', in just the blink of an eye, those black shadows formed by the black monkeys, along with that forest, flashed and disappeared instantly.

Replacing it was actually a strange, desolate mountain range!

"This..." Xu Que widened his eyes immediately, unable to believe it.

This phenomenon was just like a mirage...

But those monkeys just now were very real, definitely not illusory, yet they disappeared just like that!

"This God Venerable understands now. So the things recorded in that ancient book were all true!"

At this moment, Er Gouzi also walked up with a face full of horror, exclaiming.

"What did the ancient book say? Tell me quickly!" Xu Que hurriedly turned to look at Er Gouzi and asked.

He was too curious and also shocked. Five million years ago, the Five Elements Mountain suppressed the ancestor of a group of monkeys. Isn't this Sun Wukong's experience?

Previously, Er Gouzi had also said that the Five Kingdoms were just a Five Elements Mountain, and there was a creature suppressed under the mountain.

But Xu Que thought it was just a coincidence at the time and didn't pay too much attention to it.

But now the situation was different. That black monkey actually said their ancestor was suppressed under the mountain, which was truly shocking.

"This God Venerable read extensively back then. The things recorded in that broken ancient book looked like nonsense, and this God Venerable had long since forgotten most of it."

Er Gouzi shook its head and said: "However, it really did mention this matter. When the Five Elements Mountain suppressed that creature back then, it also suppressed the creature's ancestral land. So the forest we just entered might really be their ancestral land."

Hearing this, Xu Que raised an eyebrow. Even the ancestral land was sealed? This kind of divine ability is incredible!

"Right!"

At this moment, Er Gouzi suddenly remembered something, its eyes lit up and it said: "This God Venerable remembers now. Their ancestral land had a quite interesting name, called something... Fruit Mountain! It really knows how to brag. When this God Venerable just went in, I didn't see any fruit at all!"

Pfft!

Hearing this, Xu Que almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Fruit Mountain?

Fruit your sister!

Could this be Flower Fruit Mountain?

Xu Que suddenly couldn't remain calm. He looked at Er Gouzi and asked: "Are you sure it's not called Flower Fruit Mountain, but Fruit Mountain?"

Whether it's Sun Wukong or Flower Fruit Mountain, these terms are not simple for Chinese people.

But for people in the cultivation world, it seems there was nothing special about them.

After Er Gouzi thought about it thoughtfully, it suddenly slapped the back of its head with a claw and said very firmly: "No, maybe it's called Fruit Mountain!"

Xu Que's mouth twitched immediately. Fruit your brother-in-law!

Regarding Er Gouzi's mentally disabled memory, Xu Que had nothing left to hope for.

In his heart, he could basically guess that in the records Er Gouzi saw, what was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain should be a monkey. As for the name of the ancestral land, maybe it was really called Flower Fruit Mountain!

It's a pity that the ancestral land and those black monkeys had all disappeared, nowhere to be found. Even if he was curious, there was nothing he could do.

"Forget it, let's hurry to the Water Yuan Kingdom first. When the time comes, I'll see if the Empress has any ancient books from five million years ago, and I'll know!"

Xu Que shook his head and decided to hurry on his way.

He took out a compass, identified the direction, found the location of the Water Yuan Kingdom, and then with a 'boom', he spread his strange fire wings.

Er Gouzi immediately shouted excitedly: "666, kid, quickly teach this kind of technique to this God Venerable, 666!"

Xu Que didn't say a word, grabbed the golden collar on Er Gouzi's neck, spread his wings, and instantly soared into the air.

"Awoo..."

"Kid, let go!"

"This God Venerable doesn't accept this posture!"

Flying against the wind along the way, Er Gouzi kept shouting.

Xu Que ignored it, continued flying, and his gaze also watched everything on the ground below.

He needed to first identify how far he was from the Water Yuan Kingdom before deciding whether to carve array patterns. After all, carving array patterns would take four or five days.

In such a time-sensitive situation, unless it was a last resort, he didn't want to waste that time.

Fortunately, after flying over a few mountain ranges, Xu Que finally sensed wisps of water-attribute spiritual energy coming from heaven and earth. It was very faint, but at least it indicated that he wasn't far from the Water Yuan Kingdom.

His current position was basically at the border of the two kingdoms!

Xu Que immediately increased his speed, not caring at all about the consumption of True Essence power. After all, with the system's automatic repair function, he never lacked True Essence power!

Soon, after flying for nearly two hours, Xu Que's eyes suddenly narrowed.

The scenery in the distance had begun to appear different. The continuous mountain ranges were almost covered with thick ice and snow, looking like a vast expanse of white.

And among the mountain ranges, an ancient city could vaguely be seen!

"Eh, kid, look quickly, there is an ancient city ahead! Ah, this God Venerable is tired, I must rest for a few days before I can continue on the road!"

Er Gouzi also discovered the ancient city and immediately pretended to be on the verge of death, saying weakly.

As a result, after a while, Er Gouzi's face changed abruptly:

"Wait, that ancient city is in a great battle? Damn, thousands of troops are slaughtering each other! Kid, don't go, this God Venerable is suddenly full of energy, let's continue on our way!"

"If you don't shut up, I'll leash you for ten hours!"

Xu Que glared at Er Gouzi, the black wings behind him spread suddenly, and he quickly darted toward the ancient city.

Outside the ancient city, a great battle was indeed taking place. The scene was very grand, with at least ten thousand participants.

The most surprising thing was that both sides in the battle were human cultivators. One side was desperately guarding the ancient city, while the other side was imposing, bombarding the ancient city crazily with powerful techniques, occupying the advantage!

Xu Que's eyes immediately brightened.

Because the cultivators in the ancient city all used water-attribute techniques, and a water dragon formed by spiritual energy was circling above the ancient city, which basically indicated that the ancient city belonged to the Water Yuan Kingdom!

However, the troops attacking the city were all wearing ice armor, and the techniques they used were almost a fusion of ice and water, with great power!

Xu Que couldn't help but be puzzled. How did the Water Yuan Kingdom come up with so many cultivators who use ice? And there was a civil war. It seems the Empress's ability to govern the country isn't that great!

"Whoosh!"

He spread his wings and flew quickly above the ancient city.

At this moment, outside the ancient city, a middle-aged man wearing ice armor, riding an ice horse, who could tell at a glance that he was a general of the Ice Armor Army, shouted loudly toward the ancient city:

"Haitang, why don't you open the city gates and surrender? The Water Emperor's momentum is gone. Now, in the entire Water Yuan Kingdom, only this Snow City remains. Why continue to be obsessed? Open the city gates and surrender quickly, submit to Empress Bing Ning, and I will guarantee your wealth and glory!"

Hearing this, Xu Que was immediately dumbfounded!

The Water Emperor's momentum is gone? What's the situation?

Could it be that the Empress was usurped? What kind of ghost is Empress Bing Ning?

Damn, daring to touch my Empress, you're looking for death!

Xu Que raised an eyebrow, and with a 'whoosh', he instantly turned into a black shadow and rushed down toward the ancient city!
