Although the two from Japan were somewhat puzzled, they still took Liu Zhaodi to the side hall to wait, leaving poor Jiang Yuan there to dismantle and repair the mess.
"Little Jiangzi, you really have the nerve to call me that!" Jiang Yuan muttered to himself as he repaired the barrier. The barrier itself wasn't the challenge for him; the real difficulty was figuring out how to fool that so-called 'Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden'.
"That's not right. Zhao Di specifically said not to see her until it's fixed. Does she want me to act alone?"
Jiang Yuan slowly came to understand the meaning behind Liu Zhaodi's words. It was clear that Liu Zhaodi could resolve the trouble with the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, while he only needed to investigate the Great Sun Ruins.
"That's feasible. With her abilities, she's definitely capable of protecting herself, and it'll be easy for me to act alone!"
Jiang Yuan never worried about Liu Zhaodi's survival ability. In the words of the Eye of All Heavens, even if the battlefield exploded, the God of Luck would be the only one who survived.
"That's right, I'd like to see what this Great Sun Ruins is all about!"
Jiang Yuan sped up the repair of the barrier. This was the best possible outcome. Otherwise, the two of them would have been completely lost if they entered the Divine Envoy Mountain. Having a direction now would save them a lot of time.
It took half an hour to repair the barrier. Jiang Yuan wasn't an honest person, so after repairing the barrier, he ran away and wandered around the mountain under the title of a guest of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden.
Of course, his wandering around the mountain wasn't entirely fruitless. At least he gleaned some information about the strength of the Divine Envoy Mountain. This investigation made him realize how important it was to plan ahead, as the Divine Envoy Mountain was practically the stronghold of the half-dead from the Eastern Sea.
Having only traversed half of the Divine Envoy Mountain, he sensed no fewer than ten demigod-level half-decayers, and dozens more weaker Nascent Soul Realm cultivators at the peak of their cultivation. If there was any place in Japan that couldn't be disturbed, it would definitely be this hornet's nest of the Divine Envoy Mountain.
After all, a powerful nation like China doesn't concentrate its strength like Japan. Most of its powerful individuals are still distributed across the land of Kyushu, rather than crowding together on Mount Shenshi.
Besides the semi-deceased people buried in the past in Japan, Jiang Yuan also discovered the modern-day national power of Japan—the Shogunate.
This is the most powerful organization in Japan, controlling almost all of Japan's strongest individuals. And most of these strong individuals have come, their goal being to seize the inheritance of the Great Sun Ruins.
The Great Sun Ruins were left by the Tai Ri God in Japanese mythology, but according to Jiang Yuan's research on the power of the Death God, the power of the god here is closer to that of the beast race.
"The Golden Crow?" A name popped into Jiang Yuan's mind.
The Golden Crow is an ancient divine bird, a strange mythical beast representing the sun in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
"That's not right either. The Great Sun God in Japanese mythology did not leave any trace of the Golden Crow, otherwise there would definitely be a totem."
Many orc beliefs retain totems, but there are no golden crow patterns on the Divine Envoy Mountain, so the golden crow is most likely a divine bird under the seat of the Great Sun God.
"It seems we'll have to go up the mountain to find the answer!"
Jiang Yuan looked up at the mountaintop, where the ruins of Dairi were located. There was only one road leading there, and in the middle of this road was a shrine controlled by the shogunate. To enter the ruins of Dairi through this road, one had to obtain the shogunate's permission.
"It's nothing, it's just a little Japan. I can come and go freely in China, how could your little Japan stop me! Besides, I've done this before, using someone else's name to make a big deal out of them. At worst, I'll owe the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden a favor, and if gratitude isn't enough, I'll offer myself in marriage. I won't lose anything either way!"
Jiang Yuan treated this place like his own home. After speaking, he walked briskly toward the temple.
Little did he know that the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden was the very woman who had tricked him to the point of questioning his existence.
