"That's a Shang bird, which has the ability to make people unconscious and put them to sleep. But eating a bite of its flesh will eliminate this ability, and even various sleeping potions will be unable to knock you out in the future."
"oh!"
Jia Xitong wrapped the cleaned Shangniao bird in oil paper and took it back to share with everyone.
"What about this one?"
Jia Xitong then took out a dead fish that looked like a crucian carp but was covered in pig bristles.
"That is Zhu Zhu."
This fish can only survive in the Queshan mountain range; if it were raised elsewhere, the surrounding area would suffer a severe drought.
Is it really that scary?
Jia Xitong's hand, which was holding it, trembled.
The next moment, she threw the fish into the sea.
If it can cause a drought that stretches for hundreds of miles, then let the ocean fight it!
After throwing it in, Jia Xitong stared intently at the sea. Contrary to Wan Zhi's prediction, the sea hadn't dried up. "Indeed, the sea is more powerful."
Wanzhi: ...I'm really impressed by this person.
"By the way, what's this?"
Jia Xitong asked it to recognize some things it had found, but Wan Zhi looked towards the horizon and refused to answer.
"So you do have a lot of things you don't recognize. No need to look into the distance, I won't look down on you like those demonic cultivators do."
The noble raccoon princess explained all of this by saying that Omniscience was inadequate.
And she subtly manipulated him—
Even though you're not very capable and nobody likes you, I really like you.
This is really...
This is infuriating.
"What you have left is just trash."
Wanzhi spoke up to defend himself, saying, "Aside from those two blackened stones that might contain jade, the rest are just souvenirs."
Stones from the Queshan mountain range often yield jade.
Jia Xitong was getting increasingly annoyed with Wan Zhi.
Shang Yanting was torn between telling the other three deans about discovering the demonic cultivator.
The three were like hungry tigers and eagles, their desires insatiable. Telling them about the demonic cultivators would be tantamount to telling them about the extraordinary encounters in the Magpie Mountain range.
Will they ask more detailed questions then?
Will they be shameless then?
Shang Yanting wasn't concerned about the fate of the world; he was simply worried that these demonic cultivators might cause trouble and affect him. Therefore, the three mentioned above weren't the best choices.
After much deliberation, Shang Yanting finally set his sights on another person—Karl.
This person has a mysterious identity, and even the three deans dare not offend him. Moreover, he had previously made it clear that he was irreconcilably opposed to demonic cultivators.
Although informing him would still reveal that he had been to the Queshan Mountain Range, he was definitely less of a threat to him than the three deans.
One afternoon
Aside from the fact that the raccoon was sick, Shang Yanting, who never took the initiative to visit Carl, made an unprecedented visit to Carl.
"senior."
Shang Yanting blocked his way before he could leave.
Carl's face remained expressionless when he saw Shang Yanting. "What are you doing here?"
Shang Yanting didn't care about Karl's attitude at all. He went straight to the point and said, "This junior has discovered a demonic cultivator."
Demonic cultivator.
The moment those two words were uttered, it was as if a nerve in Uncle Karl had been activated.
Are you sure?
Carl confirmed it again and again.
The demonic cultivators have disappeared from the continent of Aotian for hundreds of years.
Shang Yanting nodded, then took out Moldo's head, which still retained a faint trace of his demonic energy.
Karl: "Where did you encounter the demonic cultivators?"
Shang Yanting: "The Queshan Mountain Range in the East China Sea."
"Isn't that where it was lost?"
Karl's eyes widened in surprise, "You've even found the ruins of the God of War!"
Seeing Karl's surprised expression, Shang Yanting became even more certain that he was right not to tell the other three deans about this. However, he did mention it briefly, "Senior Mo Hongyun, a cultivator from Yimeng Academy, came to ask me for the dragon bone, exchanging it for a treasure map. I discovered the secret of the treasure map by chance."
Karl understood immediately upon hearing this.
Mo Hongyun, that old scoundrel, had no connection with Xianlong Peak. He traded the treasure map of the Queshan mountain range for dragon bones, but he didn't actually take advantage of this young man.
But he probably wasn't that generous back then.
He must have studied it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. It would be a waste to leave it idle, so he did him a favor.
Use a useless map to exchange for a dragon bone.
This is a very clever scheme.
Unfortunately, his cleverness backfired. If he had known that this was a treasure map of the Queshan Mountain Range, he would have regretted it to the core.
"This is an opportunity you deserve, and it has nothing to do with who gave it to you."
Upon hearing this, Karl said something that implied he was trying to distance himself from any connection between the item and Mo Hongyun.
He naturally understood the senior's good intentions.
"Tell me in detail how you discovered the demonic cultivators, where they were hiding, how many of them there were, and what their purpose was," Karl steered the conversation back to the main topic.
"At that time, the junior and Xitong only met eight people, and with the one they met when they left, there were a total of nine people."
Shang Yanting began to recount the details of the demonic cultivators, "Through their conversation, we learned that although the demonic cultivators haven't reappeared on the continent for hundreds of years, their group is extremely large. They have a complete power structure and various strange magical artifacts and beasts. In terms of cultivation level, the person I killed was at the level of a Demonic Sect member, and the demonic cultivator I encountered who blocked my way was at the level of a Demon Emperor."
Overall, the number and strength of demonic cultivators should not be underestimated.
As Shang Yanting spoke in more and more detail, Karl's brows furrowed more and more deeply.
The demonic cultivators had not appeared for hundreds of years, and everyone thought they had completely disappeared from the world.
Unexpectedly, in a faraway place, a large number of demonic cultivators lived.
If neither side is aware of the other's existence, they can cross the ocean and remain indifferent.
However, they had always known of the existence of this continent beneath their feet. They had already traveled across mountains and seas on magical artifacts, getting infinitely closer to the continent where martial arts practitioners had lived for generations.
Demonic cultivators and martial cultivators are inherently irreconcilable enemies; the great battle between demonic cultivators and other cultivators hundreds of years ago is still fresh in everyone's memory.
Now that demonic cultivators have appeared in the Magpie Mountain Range, don't they harbor any thoughts of invasion?
Uncle Karl looked at Shang Yanting and asked, "Where is the Queshan Mountain Range? I want to go and see for myself."
Shang Yanting presented the map with both hands and then said politely, "This place is far away. Why don't we go together?"
"No need."
Uncle Karl took the map and walked outside. "By the way, you and Xitong should tell everyone that you went somewhere for a casual training trip. Don't do anything that would reveal that you've been to the Queshan Mountain Range."
He reminded him before he left.
"yes."
Shang Yanting bowed to him and watched him depart into the distance.
Indeed, telling him about the demonic cultivator was the best option.
