"Wu Jianwu?" Xu Qing squatted on a tree crown and his eyes glead.
Back then, this Wu Jianwu had provoked him on the Forbidden Sea. However, later on, the other party seed to be very afraid and no longer had the ability to threaten him. Moreover, he had even helped pay the fee for killing his follower.
Hence, after so thought, Xu Qing didn't plan to look for him. He was going to head to the ruins where the Extre Heaven Dao Temple was located but he still casually asked.
"What is he doing?"
The shadow instantly spread out on the ground and kept changing its appearance. It was as though the scene it saw through its eyes was too complicated, so much so that it changed several tis. In the end, it didn't hesitate to split up to portray the scene.
In the scene, more than ten shadows split into different ferocious beasts. Every ferocious beast had one thing in common, and that was their stomachs were bulging.
The shadow also outlined Wu Jianwu's appearance. The other party was sitting beside a ferocious beast and touching its bulging stomach.
Even Xu Qing, who wasn't very curious, was stunned and revealed a puzzled expression. The Diamond Sect's ancestor at the side gasped.
"What's going on? What is that fool doing? Why are the stomachs of these beasts bulging? Are they pregnant?" At this point, the Diamond Sect's ancestor's soul body trembled and his expression revealed disbelief.
"Master, why don't we go take a look? This fool... I think he's doing sothing big!!"
Xu Qing fell silent. He wasn't a curious person but that scene was too strange. He wanted to see it with his own eyes, so he spoke.
"Lead the way."
The shadow was excited and quickly guided.
Xu Qing followed the shadow's directions, disappearing into the jungle.
Not long later, Xu Qing saw a mountain.
This mountain was a branch of the Truth Mountain Range that was in the range of the Phoenix Forbidden.
Xu Qing looked around and leaped onto the mountain. Very soon, on the other side of the mountain, he saw a crack in the mountain that was hidden in the dense vegetation.
It was ten feet long and naturally ford. Its location was very concealed.
If it wasn't for the shadow leading the way, it would be difficult for Xu Qing to sense this crack.
Standing in front of the crack, Xu Qing had a surprised expression. The concealnt here was enough to show how cautious Wu Jianwu was. After pondering for a mont, he entered the crack with vigilance and followed the shadow's directions.
This crack was much deeper than Xu Qing had imagined. Moreover, as he entered deeper in it, he slowly felt so moisture. It was as though this crack penetrated the mountain and the ground, leading to the underground river.
There were also many forks that made it a natural maze. If it wasn't for the shadow's precise directions, Xu Qing might be lost in this maze even if he found the crack.
Just like that, a while later, Xu Qing arrived at the end of the crack.
At the end, there was a huge underground cave. A bat was lying at the side of the cave, paying attention to everything.
It was possessed by the shadow.
Xu Qing moved closer to the edge and looked at the cave below. His expression instantly beca incomparably strange.
There were more than 20 ferocious beasts in the cave.
These ferocious beasts included wolves and tigers, and there were also many strange-looking beasts. At that mont, they were all subdued and sealed. They lay there with their stomachs bulging as though they were nourishing their babies.
Other than that, there was also a pool that had been dug out in the middle of the cave.
There were many dicinal liquids inside, emitting waves of dicinal sll.
As for Wu Jianwu, whose face was bruised and swollen, he was squatting beside the dicinal pool. He took out the dicinal liquid with a stone bowl and walked to the side of a huge bear with a bulging belly. He carefully and ticulously fed it dicine.
This giant bear's expression was filled with horror. It wanted to struggle but it was useless. Its entire body was sealed and it had lost all resistance. It couldn't even get up.
Wu Jianwu's expression was gentle. As he fed the dicine, he even touched the giant bear's stomach and muttered softly.
"It's normal for you to have so reaction. Bear with it a little longer. I'll rely on you for the rest of my life. The little darling is about to be born."
"Once the little darling is born, I'll truly be amazing. At that ti, I'll let Saintly Star know who the true heaven's chosen is!"
"Who can be heaven's chosen of all ages? Only I, the supre Wu Jianwu!"
Wu Jianwu gritted his teeth. His expression seed to have frightened the giant bear at the side. Its struggle beca intense. Wu Jianwu hurriedly stroked it gently, trying his best to be gentle and speak softly.
"Be good and don't move around. You need to rest well. As long as the little darling is born successfully, you'll have made a great contribution. I'll treat you well."
This scene caused Xu Qing's eyes to widen.
At the side, the Diamond Sect's ancestor shuddered. He quickly took out a jade slip and began to record. Perhaps it was because he was too shaken, he produced so noise when recording.
Wu Jianwu imdiately felt the disturbance. He looked up with a savage expression.
"Heaven and earth are my abodes, no one can hide from !"
As he spoke, he leaped up. However, at the next instant, he saw Xu Qing who still looked a little shocked.
"Xu Qing?"
Wu Jianwu's heart trembled. He was a little confused that the other party could find him even after he had hidden so deeply. However, he quickly reacted and glanced at the pregnant ferocious beasts below. He then noticed Xu Qing's expression and took a sharp breath.
"Xu Qing, you're mistaken."
"Sorry to disturb you." Xu Qing cast a deep glance at Wu Jianwu before turning to leave.
He felt that there was a huge problem with Wu Jianwu's brain.
Seeing this, Wu Jianwu panicked. At this mont, he couldn't care less about fear and even forgot to recite poetry. He hurriedly chased after him and shouted.
"Xu Qing, it isn't what you think it is."
Wu Jianwu was extrely anxious and aggrieved. Back then, after he opened the wish box and obtained the bottle, he was depressed for a long ti, but he felt it a pity to throw it away.
As such, he searched for information and found out from so clues that the almighty who left the bottle was a nonhuman cultivator who followed the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether.
After he lost to Saintly Star on the First Peak, he swore to himself that he would teach Saintly Star a lesson. Hence, he ca to the Phoenix Forbidden and began to prepare to create the bloodline of the previous era here.
The reason why he wasn't in the sect was because he cared a lot about his reputation. He was worried that others would misunderstand if they saw him doing this in the sect and he was also worried that there would be too many people watching him. That was why he found such a hidden place. However, no matter what, he didn't expect Xu Qing to see him.
He thought about how if Xu Qing returned to the sect and news of this spread, his reputation would be completely ruined.
In fact, the scenes of everyone in the sect looking at him with strange gazes appeared in his mind. All of this made his scalp feel like it was about to explode. He only felt that his world had darkened and was extrely anxious.
Seeing that he couldn't catch up to Xu Qing, he hurriedly shouted.
"Xu Qing, I'll pay. Don't tell anyone."
"Everyone has their own way of living. It's fine." Xu Qing's voice rang out from afar.
"It's really not like that!!" Wu Jianwu's face turned purple and red as he beca increasingly anxious.
"Xu Qing, I'll give you 300,000 spirit stones!"
Xu Qing stepped out of the crack and arrived outside the mountain. When he heard this, he stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look behind him.
Very soon, Wu Jianwu rushed out of the crack with reddened eyes. He quickly took out the spirit tickets and stuffed them into Xu Qing's hands.
"Take it, Xu Qing, you must take it. If you don't take it, I won't be at ease. This matter is really not what you think. I, I, I..." Wu Jianwu's breathing beca hurried.
Seeing this, Xu Qing silently kept the spirit tickets and nodded seriously.
"I didn't see anything."
However, Wu Jianwu was clearly still worried.
"Xu Qing, why did you co to the Phoenix Forbidden? If there's anything I can help with, just tell ."
"I'm looking for poison materials." Xu Qing glanced at Wu Jianwu.
"Poison? I know of a place. I'll bring you there!" When Wu Jianwu heard this, he hurriedly spoke.
"There's no need." Xu Qing shook his head and turned to leave.
"Xu Qing, don't leave yet. Wait for , I'll go get them for you, okay? There's a place under this mountain that definitely has the poison you need!!" As Wu Jianwu spoke, he hurriedly ran toward the crack.
He really wanted to extract poison for Xu Qing. If he didn't do this, he wouldn't feel at ease. Before Xu Qing could reply, he disappeared into the crack and sped into the depths.
In his hurry, he didn't notice that an eye had appeared in his shadow and was looking around sneakily.
Xu Qing fell into deep thought. He lowered his head and looked at the shadow under his feet. The shadow quickly ford a shape on the ground, revealing Wu Jianwu's whereabouts and the surrounding environnt as much as possible.
Very soon, the shape of the shadow changed into the shape of Wu Jianwu. After entering the cave, he jumped down into the pool and swam deeper until he passed through a secret tunnel and entered a larger space.
In that space, there seed to be a lake. However, the lake portrayed by the shadow was shaped like a huge human face. It was moving slowly, as though the lake water was very viscous.
After Wu Jianwu entered the area, he directly dug out so substances from the lake and placed them in a stone bowl before returning.
The shadow wasn't able to portray everything properly. As Xu Qing pondered, Wu Jianwu returned.
"Xu Qing, do you think this ets your needs?" As Wu Jianwu spoke, he handed a stone bowl to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing's gaze swept over and instantly froze.
There were so frozen objects in the stone bowl. They looked like liquid but weren't. They were azure in color and emitted a crystalline glow. They also emitted waves of fragrance.
"Immortal jelly?" Xu Qing's expression changed. He recognized this item.
In Grandmaster Bai's pharmacopeia, there was a ntion of such an item. This wasn't poison but an extrely rare catalytic item. According to Grandmaster Bai's research, he felt that there was a high chance that this item was related to the immortal Qi recorded in the ancient books.
"Under this mountain, there's a strange lake that's filled with these things. Back then, after I discovered it, I took out so of them but they dissipated in two hours. No matter how I stored them, it was the sa. There wasn't enough ti for to bring them back to the sect. Moreover, this thing is harmless to the human race. However, when I fed so to a ferocious beast, it imdiately rotted and died. I think this should be a type of poison."
Wu Jianwu hurriedly explained.
"Bring there." Xu Qing fell silent for a while before he slowly spoke.
Wu Jianwu imdiately led the way.
At that mont, he would agree to whatever Xu Qing requested. Hence, he didn't hesitate at all to bring Xu Qing all the way to the underground lake.
