Chapter 184: The Extraordinary White Deer
“The terrifying aura erupted wantonly, and the mountains were riddled with holes.
However, these two beasts were both peerless beasts, and both had reached the seventh level of calamity.
The two sides fought for nearly half a month. However, neither one of them could kill the opponent, and both sides were injured.”
Listening to the description, even without witnessing it firsthand, Qin Feng could roughly imagine the fierce nature of that battle.
Suddenly, Si Zheng said, “Wait a moment. Since you said that Bi Fang and Xie Hui engaged in a fierce battle to devour each other’s flesh, blood, and soul, reaching the realm of the eighth turn.
In that case, even if one party dies, its remains and soul will be devoured by the other, rendering it’s supernatural powers unusable.
In such a situation, wouldn’t your Tomb Family usually stay out of it?”
Hearing this, Mu Youqian nodded, “That’s right. Although we use the Soul Sealing Coffin to contain the remains and souls of powerful monsters, we only target those who have failed to advance and couldn’t withstand the heavenly tribulation.
In cases like Bi Fang and Xie Hui, we wouldn’t interfere.
After all, with our family’s strength, it’s challenging to withstand the fury of a seventh-level demonic beast.
However, this time the situation was different.”
At this point, Mu Youqian had to mention his grandfather.
Although the patriarch of the Tomb Family was not a practitioner of the orthodox cultivation path, he possessed a unique divination ability, capable of predicting when and where powerful demonic entities would fall.
The members of the Tomb Family, relying on the grandfather’s divination, could consistently locate the remains and souls of powerful monsters, seal them, and prevent them from causing harm.
This time, the divination for the battle between Bi Fang and Xie Hui indicated danger.
The grandfather even foresaw many anomalies in this battle. If left unchecked, it would bring calamity to the Southern Domain.
Unable to rest assured, after careful consideration, he decided to send someone to investigate, just in case.
And Mu Youqian happened to be the lucky one chosen.
Listening to this, Qin Feng was astonished.
“Indeed, divination abilities are truly incredible. The Imperial Teacher of the Heavenly Tower is like this, and so is the grandfather of the Coffin Tomb Family.
I wonder if, when I reach the sixth-grade Fate Divination Realm in the future, I’ll be as amazing?”
Mu Youqian spoke again with a bitter tone, “The conflict between two seventh-level demonic beasts is dangerous beyond words, and the Tomb Family has no intention of getting involved. I am naturally one of those who don’t want to go.
Who knew, my grandfather glanced around and happened to fixate on me.
I was definitely not willing, so he made a bet with me, guessing which hand held a copper coin. If I guessed correctly, I wouldn’t have to go.
Later, I found out that he didn’t have a copper coin in either hand.”
The people in the hall fell into silence for a moment.
Qin Feng looked at him with a sympathetic expression, as if caring for a mentally challenged child.
Mu Youqian took a moment to compose himself and continued, “The battle between Bi fang and Xie Hui was indeed problematic.
I lurked in the mountains of Zhang’e for a long time, and I witnessed the entire battle from beginning to end.
Initially, it was two demonic beasts killing each other, but in the end, when the outcome of life and death was about to be revealed, someone intervened.
They shot a golden arrow directly into Bi fang’s head!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kai furrowed his brow.
Despite Bi fang being on the brink of death, the person who could shoot an arrow and take down its head was undoubtedly not ordinary. Qin Feng pondered.
“At that moment, I understood that there must be a hidden hand behind the struggle between Bi fang and Xie Hui, and their target was Bifang’s head!
I didn’t know their intentions, but I knew that Bifang’s head couldn’t fall into their hands.
In the brief moment they obstructed Xie Hui, I used the Soul Sealing Coffin to seal and collect Bi fang’s head.
However, they were too fast and soon caught up with me. Just when I thought I was doomed, a seven-colored horned White Deer appeared.”
Mu Youqian recounted the magical aspects of the White Deer, and everyone, upon hearing it, showed expressions of astonishment.
Time and Space froze, what an extraordinary method!
Even immortal techniques cannot compare to it, Qin Feng thought.
“Lord Zhou,” Si Zheng looked at Zhou Kai.
As a Thirty-Six Star, he must have broad knowledge. Such mysterious beings might only be known to Zhou Kai.
Feeling the gaze of the crowd, Zhou Kai shook his head and said in a deep voice, “I have not heard of this mystical White Deer, but when I was with Immortal Sima Kong heading north, I encountered a similar entity by chance. At that time, Immortal Sima only said one thing, transcending the extraordinary, almost god-like, a name not to be uttered by mortals.”
The simple phrase “transcending the extraordinary” conveyed a lot. Zhou Kai didn’t dwell on this issue, recognizing that some existences surpassed common understanding, just like the power of the Four Domains Command is far beyond what the world has said.
“Do you have any information about the appearance of those people?” Zhou Kai asked.
The mastermind behind the battle between two Seven-Transformation Force demonic beasts and the plot to seize Bi fang’s head must have grand ambitions. Zhou Kai naturally took it seriously.
“They all covered their faces with clothing and hats, making it impossible to see their faces,” Mu Youqian sighed.
This was within everyone’s expectations. Qin Feng looked at the Soul Sealing Coffin sealed by Lord Zhou’s aura and asked, “So, is Bi fang’s head sealed in this black coffin now?”
“Yes, the resentment of Bi fang is too great, and combined with my limited strength. To refine its head and dissipate its resentment, it will take at least a month of effort,” said Mu Youqian with an unpleasant expression.
“What if we bring it back to your Mu family? Your family elders should have a way, right?” Qin Feng asked curiously.
Mu Youqian shook his head, “The Tomb family is not in the Southern Domain, and it’s simply impossible to go back in a short time. That’s also why I chose to listen to the White Deer and come to Jinyang City. Moreover, the seal imposed by the White Deer has disappeared. If we bring the Soul-Sealing Coffin around again, it will only spread ashes and let the fire poison run rampant.”
“Then did the White Deer not tell you who in Jinyang City can block the resentment of Bi fang?” Qin Feng inquired.
Mu Youqian did not answer; he just shook his head.
Seeing this, Qin Feng raised an eyebrow.
The act of speaking only half of the information was as outrageous as those authors from the previous life who left their stories incomplete, infuriating and despicable!
Just then, the Soul-Sealing Coffin, which had been motionless all along, began to tremble violently. The originally green Yin Qi used to seal its breath was eroded by black energy, making a sizzling melting sound.
The group was shocked.
At the same time, Qin Feng and the others felt the air becoming hot. Looking outside, the ash snow that covered the sky seemed to have multiplied many times.
“Oh no, the seal has weakened!” Mu Youqian exclaimed.
Chief Zhou furrowed his brows. Without saying a word, he clasped his hands together, and his black shadow rushed towards the Soul-Sealing Coffin like a tide, turning into a black box that tightly enveloped it.
The sensation of heat decreased slightly, and the city-wide ashes diminished somewhat.
But before Qin Feng and the others could breathe a sigh of relief, the black box formed by the shadow shattered.
A mournful bird cry echoed over the sky of Jinyang City!
“What is this?” Qin Feng exclaimed with widened eyes.
