Chapter 166 Monkey King’s Significant Discovery i

Translator: 549690339 |

The Wood Elf Clan, as always, was tranquil.

Beyond those Floating Peaks, Elder Qingfeng, leading Monkey Kongxu, stood suspended in midair, both of their eyes revealing an eager anticipation.

As Li Cheng and Ling Xi flew over, the smiles on the faces of the man and the monkey grew even more intense.

Monkey Kongxu took the lead in greeting them, “Brother, you’ve finally arrived!”

While stroking his beard, Elder Qingfeng said, “This monkey has been looking forward to the Benefactor’s return every day, saying that there’s an important discovery that he insists on investigating with the Benefactor. And who might this be?”

Li Cheng said with a smile, “My disciple, Ling Xi.”

Elder Qingfeng and Monkey Kongxu simultaneously turned their gaze to Ling Xi, and Elder Qingfeng laughed, “The Benefactor’s distinguished disciple is naturally a honored guest to our Elf Tribe, please!”

Assessing Ling Xi, Monkey Kongxu also laughed, “You look somewhat familiar, I feel like we’ve met before, just can’t seem to remember right now.”

Elder Qingfeng looked at Monkey Kongxu, “How could you feel familiar with the Benefactor’s disciple who is visiting for the first time? That’s not how you make an acquaintance.”

As he spoke, Elder Qingfeng then said, “But I do have a sense of familiarity as well, a strange thing indeed.”

“You accuse me of making an acquaintance? You sly old man, Elder Qingfeng, you’re too bad, turning around and saying the same thing as I did,” replied Monkey Kongxu in irritation.

Something stirred in Elder Qingfeng’s heart, “I remember now, I was wondering why there was a sense of familiarity, the Benefactor’s disciple is graceful and refined, resembling the senior Li Baijie who once came here!”

Li Cheng subtly raised his eyebrows, he hadn’t intended to reveal Ling Xi’s identity, but it was recognized unexpectedly!

“Exactly, I knew there was familiarity, heh heh, young lady, you must be a descendant of Senior Bai Jie, right?” Monkey Kongxu said with a laugh.

Ling Xi performed a polite bow, “Ling Xi greets the two seniors, my father is indeed Li Bai Jie.”

Monkey Kongxu slapped his thigh in triumph and looked smugly at Elder Qingfeng.

Ignoring him, Elder Qingfeng bowed to Ling Xi and said with a smile, “So you are the precious daughter of Senior Bai Jie. He helped our clan a great deal when he was here. To meet his daughter today is truly a great fortune!”

Li Cheng looked at Elder Qingfeng with some surprise, had the old man started to engage in flattery too?

“Senior, the people of the Five Clans are currently unwilling to return, so I did not bring them this time,” Li Cheng shifted the topic.

Elder Qingfeng wasn’t surprised and smiled, “Those youngsters must be very curious about the outside world. Once they have had their fill, they will naturallyreturn.”

Li Cheng didn’t explain that the people were not currently attracted by the outside world, but rather drawn to the Seven Mystery Tower.

But once they left the Seven Mystery Tower, who knows if they would be attracted by the outside world, as Elder Qingfeng had said? Thus, Li Cheng didn’t elaborate further.

Nodding, Li Cheng continued, “Awhile back, I met a predecessor from the Earth Elf Clan who had a dying wish to be passed on to the Five Clans. I hope you’ll notify the Clan Leaders.”

Elder Qingfeng’s expression turned somber, and he nodded gravely, sending out messages promptly.

The four of them landed in front of the Clear Heart Immortal Tree, and soon the Clan Leaders of the other four tribes rushed over, not forgetting to bring Yan Yao with them.

But the matter of the Earth Elf Clan predecessor was far too important; they couldn’t concern themselves with having Yan Yao take a master. As soon as Clan Leader Shan Qian landed, he stepped forward, “Master Li, a predecessor from my clan has fallen? May I ask who it is?”

Immortal Yuan surged in Li Cheng’s palm, condensing the image of the predecessor.

Upon seeing the image, everyone showed a look of reverence, with Shan Qian even bowing deeply to it.

As the image vanished, Li Cheng said, “Before this predecessor passed, he said to find a way to go to the Devil Abyss to pay respects to your old ancestor.”

“He is my clan uncle, who followed Senior Bai Jie when he left. I never imagined that his departure would be forever,” Shan Qian sighed.

Elder Qingfeng also sighed and said, “People inevitably die, but what does his message mean by paying respects to the old ancestor?”

“To pay respects to the old ancestor, I wonder which ancestor that could be,” pondered Mingyue.

Xingyu looked at Li Cheng, “Little brother, what is the Devil Abyss? Can you describe it for us?”

Li Cheng nodded, his Immortal Yuan surged, and once again he conjured up the scene of the Devil Abyss, displaying it for everyone to see.

Staring at the upside-down earth and rocks in the sky, all five Clan Leaders were dumbstruck, unable to regain their senses for a long time.

“Ancestral land! It’s our ancestral land!”

“That’s right, I didn’t expect the ancestral land really existed, I thought it was just a legend!”

The five Clan Leaders grew increasingly excited.

Li Cheng decided not to disturb them and turned his gaze to Yan Yao.

These days, Mingyue and Xingyu had been taking her and consoling her. It seemed she had walked out of her gloom.

At this moment, she was chatting and laughing with Ling Xi, though Li Cheng did not know what about, as he wasn’t eavesdropping.

Women are strange like that, they start chatting the moment they meet.

“Monkey King, do you have any important discoveries?” Li Cheng looked at the listless Monkey Kongxu. If he didn’t talk to him now, he might really start feeling empty.

Monkey Kongxu suddenly perked up, pulling Li Cheng to the side, “These guys won’t stop for a while. How about you and I, brothers, go to Huaguo Mountain first? My major discovery is in that tomb!”

Last time, a Five Elements Meridian Pearl had been dug up from the tomb, and Li Cheng was curious, what else had Monkey Kongxu found?

“Don’t rush, tell me first, what did you find?” Li Cheng asked.

Monkey Kongxu carefully glanced at the five Clan Leaders, making sure they weren’t paying attention to this side, then whispered, “The graveyard of my Monkey Clan is not simple, you know. After you dug up the Five Elements Meridian Pearl, I dug around a bit, and you would never guess, I actually found a space barrier!”

“I’ve carefully investigated, and it seems to be an artefact sealed by a space barrier technique, about two hundred meters right below the graveyard. Let’s go check it out now!”

Having said that, Monkey Kongxu glanced at the five Clan Leaders again, as if afraid of being discovered by them.

Li Cheng was surprised; he had dug up the Five Elements Meridian Pearl, and this fellow had actually dug down another two hundred meters?

That’s your family’s ancestral tomb!

How would you handle it if digging so deep caused the graveyard to collapse?

I really wonder if your ancestors’ coffin boards can still hold.

Li Cheng pondered, “Back then, we investigated and there was nothing hundreds of meters down, how did a space barrier suddenly appear?”

“You suspect it appeared afterwards?” Monkey Kongxu asked.

“It could also be that the technique was too profound, and we didn’t discover it at the time. Could it be related to the Sky-reaching Giant Ape? After all, it became part of the Corpse Clan after being buried there.”

Li Cheng was a bit worried. What if they dug up a terrible horror?

After all, hiding an artefact beneath a graveyard is not normal.

Moreover, the Sky-reaching Giant Ape in the graveyard had turned into the Corpse Clan. It’s hard not to make a connection.

With that said, Monkey Kongxu became somewhat panicked and said uncertainly, “Such a seal… Could it be that there’s no treasure inside? That shouldn’t be the case, should it?”

” Who knows? We’ll find out when we look. However, the Sky-reaching Giant Ape never did reveal the source of the corpse transformation secret skill. Maybe it truly came from inside,” Li Cheng said with a smile.

Monkey Kongxu’s mouth twitched, “If the corpse transformation secret skill really came from within, then that indicates there’s a great horror inside, and being able to transmit a secret technique means that the seal is probably no longer secure. Ah, I’m somewhat worried.”

“If you’re concerned, let’s call everyone to go together,” Li Cheng said.
