Claiming the Throne of Gods, Starting from the Rebirth of Nezha Chapter 76: The Mountain Within the Mountains

"This place is an underground river, how did you fall in here? But don’t be afraid, as long as I’m here, you won’t drown no matter how strong the flow is."

Because there are battles near Sanshan Pass all year round, there are many cultivators among the two opposing camps, so even ordinary people living nearby are not too surprised by the existence of cultivators.

After confirming that the other party was a mortal, Nezha didn’t pay too much attention and continued to search for the source of life energy, asking: "Where is your ho? Once we get to the surface, I will take you back."

"My family is in Sanshan Pass."

Deng Chanyu grew even more curious as she saw Nezha seed to be looking for sothing.

Because of her family background, she had been in contact with cultivators in the army since she was conscious, but she had seen many seniors and even heretical cultivators, all of whom said that she lacked the talent for cultivation.

Refusing to accept this fact, Deng Chanyu practiced martial arts diligently, her father even cherished her so much that he procured a copy of the "Infinite Longevity Scripture" for her.

However, perhaps it was destiny’s will, the path of cultivation was long and obstructed, she could never truly enter its gates, and now she saw a child about her age, who could control a cultivation magic treasure to travel alone through the underground river, her heart was filled with unspeakable envy and admiration.

But these feelings were not overwhelming at the mont and were almost completely overshadowed by another intense emotion.

Sha and annoyance.

Deng Chanyu was an eight-year-old girl who, due to her experiences and insights, was more mature than her peers and had developed an awareness of gender differences early on.

But now, she was alone with another strange boy in this sunless underground river, riding together on a shuttle, their bodies almost totally pressed against each other, which was bad enough, but now her clothes were soaked, making it seem hardly any different from not wearing any at all.

Nezha felt the wet slickness against his back, raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that the girl was wearing far too little. He hadn’t dared to look closely before, now in his mind he only rembered the girl’s slender limbs and delicate facial features.

Distracting himself slightly, he said, "Sanshan Pass, huh? My ho is at Chentang Pass, quite a distance from here. But I’ve heard from the people of Lingquan Town that Sanshan Pass is much bigger than Chentang Pass, with more people, more happenings, and a greater diversity of officials. I really want to go and have a look inside the pass one day."

"Right, I’ve heard there are thirty-nine important towns like Lingquan Town within Sanshan Pass. Do you rember exactly where your ho is? It’s fine if you don’t rember, but it might be a bit troubleso to search for it later."

"Of course, I rember." Deng Chanyu thought to herself, do you take for one of those dumb kids who roll around in mud all day? She lightly raised her eyebrows, her hands had nowhere to rest, so she placed them on Nezha’s shoulders and said, "That, can I borrow that red ribbon tied around your waist? I’m a bit cold."

Upon hearing this, Nezha instinctively looked back and glanced over Deng Chanyu from head to toe, causing the already embarrassed and annoyed girl to feel her blood rush to her face, blushing red as a monkey’s bottom.

She finally couldn’t control herself, her delicate hands like tender bamboo shoots after rain pressed against Nezha’s head, forcefully turning it back as she sharply said, "Don’t look!"

Nezha, feeling helpless, thought to himself you’re just a child, with neither breasts nor a bottom to look at as if they were worth admiring.

He said, "I was on the verge of forgetting this matter. We’re roughly the sa size; I have a few changes of clothes here. If you don’t mind, wear mine for now."

Saying this, he took out a set of black attire from his Qiankun Bag.

Deng Chanyu held it in her hand, her eyebrows slightly knitted as she instinctively sniffed the clothes, and seeing she didn’t dislike the sll, she looked up at Nezha again and said, "Don’t turn around."

"Not turning, little missy."

Hearing this, Deng Chanyu undid the pouch tied around her waist, deftly removed her undergarnts and tossed them into the water, then put on the clothing, the all-black attire accentuating her slenderness.

Now clothed, the girl finally transford from a primal monkey back into the noble and spirited Deng Chanyu, and said, "How did you end up in this underground river?"

"I ca in here to look for sothing."

""

No sooner had he finished speaking when Nezha felt a jolt in his heart: "How did you appear here?"

Deng Chanyu felt that her appearance here was completely accidental, and there was no need to lie, so she explained: "I was originally soaking in a hot spring when suddenly the ground trembled, everything went black, I choked on water, and when I woke up, I found myself here."

Nezha thought to himself, could it be because of ?

Soaking in hot springs.

What a sin, this girl wouldn’t be one of Deng Chanyu’s female warriors, would she? He asked, "When you fell into the river, were there other people who also suffered?"

Deng Chanyu shook her head: "There shouldn’t be, I was the only one in the pool when the incident happened."

"That’s good."

Nezha breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What’s your na?"

"I am Deng Chan... just call Deng Chan."

Upon hearing this, Nezha involuntarily looked back at her, thinking that although you say your na is Deng Chan, you must be that Deng Chanyu.

Truly, as the legends say, a naturally beautiful woman, even if compared to the prettiest Lu Zhu’er at ho, she does not lack in beauty, but the thought that such a beauty could one day fall into the hands of Earth Traveling Sun made him unavoidably feel it to be a pity.

Nezha said, "Just call Li Zha."

The Dividing Water Divine Shuttle was incredibly fast and, having determined the direction, it took less than fifteen minutes for them to see light ahead. He approached, lifted Deng Chanyu by the waist, and with a leap, they were on the surface of the water.

Behind them was a small lake the size of a soccer field, with a small island in the center of the lake. On the island stood a giant tree thick enough to require decades of people to embrace, with three main branches and five smaller limbs, without a single leaf.

Looking up, the ’sky’ above seed oppressively low, a shade of blood-red, like Shi Ji’s hollowed-out mountain belly with jewels acting as stars, a fake sky.

All of this was incredibly majestic, but in comparison to the scenery ahead, it seed insignificant.

If Nezha had speculated that they were inside a mountain’s belly just now, then looking straight ahead for about a thousand two hundred steps, there was a dark mountain within a mountain.

Upon close observation of its shape, it was more like a colossal palace rather than a mountain.

In front of the palace stood eighty-one Heavenly Pillars, holding up that blood-red sky.

It was like a pitch-black ferocious beast from the ancient tis, lying there quietly, motionless, yet emanating a crushing unnad grandeur that rolled forward from the front.

"Where is this?"

Deng Chanyu opened her mouth, feeling her throat almost parched. She had lived in Sanshan Pass since she was a child, yet she had never heard of such a place.

"I’m not sure either, but we shouldn’t have traveled too far."

Nezha narrowed his eyes slightly. Upon reaching this place, he had determined that the source of that thick Life Energy ca from the giant tree in the middle of the lake behind him.

What was at the tree remained unknown for the ti being.

However, it was evident that the biggest secret of this place must be the dark colossal palace in front of them.
