A legendary tome? This astonished Chu Feng. He was extremely interested, but he was able to keep his composure. His tone was calm and emotionless as he informed Chu Feng that he had no time today and would meet at noon the next day.
Qi Honglin frowned. He was keenly aware that he couldn't underestimate this young man. He was quite powerful!
At first, he thought the other party would be excited after hearing about the legendary tome and would immediately meet up with him. He would then take the initiative and resolve this matter satisfactorily.
However, the other party was extremely calm. This was a bit troublesome.
Qi Honglin felt that Demon King Chu was purposely giving him the cold shoulder to increase his "sincerity".
"Unfortunately, it's not my grandson." He sighed.
He shook his head and broke into laughter. That person was a living ancestor. He had no right to have such a grandson.
Beside him, Qi Sheng's expression was unsightly but he didn't dare say anything. This time, he was the one who had brought disaster upon the Pre-Qin Research Institute.
It was also because of this incident that he yearned to be a top-grade king level expert. He was just one person, but his every word and action could threaten a major corporation!
This was especially true for this Demon King Chu. He would … eat at the slightest disagreement! He was too violent and wild, scaring the entire Pre-Qin Research Institute into a panic.
White Dragon and Xia Lan were esteemed guests of the marine race. Yet, they were knocked down by Chu Feng's fists and brought away as food for him to gorge himself on.
What would they do if the marine race blamed them?! That demon king had clearly said that they would be the scapegoat!
At this moment, Qi Honglin was also having a headache. Looking at his grandson, Qi Sheng, whose bones were all fractured and his body was covered in plaster casts and metal braces, he wanted to slap him to death.
"You think you're so smart, trying to scheme against a supreme king level expert? Why don't you think about your own status? Even our entire Pre-Qin Research Institute wouldn't dare to go to war with him, let alone you! "
Qi Honglin flicked his sleeves and left in large strides. He didn't want to see this grandson of his ever again.
At this time, Chu Feng was at the Hollow Jade Temple with a group of acquaintances. They were drinking to their heart's content. The clairvoyant, clairaudient, Ye Qingrou, and Chen Luoyan were all present.
The clairvoyant Du Huaijin's eyes went wide when he saw the king level lobster.
"Such a huge lobster, it must have been a spirit for hundreds of years, right? Why do I feel like I've caught the prawn soldiers and crab generals from the legends? This is the first time I've seen such a thing in my life, and this prawn meat actually has a unique fragrance! "
"Boss is mighty. When you went missing a while ago, we were so upset. Little Sister Qingrou even cried. We even made a cenotaph for you to burn." Ouyang Qing, the clairaudient, said.
"Who's crying?" Ye Qingrou had a head full of wavy, curly hair. Her large eyes were charming, but they rolled back.
A while ago, they were all in low spirits. Rumor had it that Chu Feng had fallen in the West. Ye Qingrou had secretly wiped away her tears, thinking that he had really died in the Vatican.
Later, when they learned that Chu Feng was still alive and saw him slaying a dragon at the foot of Mount Kunlun, they were all thrilled.
"You gluttons, what is this? It's king level flesh and blood! Why didn't you send it to the laboratory?! "Lu Tong came over and stomped his feet in frustration.
"Don't worry, I left you half a dragon. You can experiment with it," said Chu Feng.
That white electric eel was dozens of meters long and really couldn't be eaten. Although electric eels were stronger, they didn't taste as good as the king level lobster.
Lu Tong scolded them, but when it came time to eat, he swept everything away like a whirlwind. His appetite was so great that he even burped in the end. After getting drunk, he even praised the king level ingredients as rare delicacies.
At night, Chu Feng was playing with the broken beads in his hand. Out of the 36 beads, more than 20 had exploded, and the rest were also cracked.
He had contacted Yellow Cattle and asked him to identify what kind of weapon this was.
Yellow Cattle told him that this was a "magical weapon". It was a weapon that could release strange powers, and it was a rare sight to see one in front of him.
Yellow Cattle warned him that if he met an enemy with such a magical weapon, he had to be careful. Its destructive power was great!
Last time, when they returned from the West, the divine emissary they met at the entrance of the Misty Valley was holding a silver lamp. It was also a magical weapon and contained the flames of extreme yin. It should be even more powerful.
At noon the next day, Chu Feng arrived at the Primordial Club on time.
This time, he was invited into the room called the Heavenly Court. The decorations were exquisite and the interior of the hall was extremely spacious. There was actually a clear spring, a forest, and a small stone bridge.
Qi Honglin's hair was jet-black and his face was rosy. He didn't look like an old man at all and seemed to be in the prime of his life. Most importantly, he was already a king level expert and didn't look old.
The moment they met, Qi Honglin immediately apologized and sighed. He said that his grandson Qi Sheng had always been conceited and neglected to discipline him. In the end, he had brought about a disaster.
"If I wasn't strong enough, I would've died in the hands of the marine race," Chu Feng said.
Qi Honglin naturally knew that a simple apology wouldn't solve the problem. This was the great Demon King Chu they were talking about. His grandson had actually provoked him and wanted to kill him.
"Our Pre-Qin Research Institute has always liked to research the direction of history, excavate historical remains, and study the truth of myths and legends. We've obtained some strange items over the years. This time, we'd like to invite Brother Chu Feng to appraise them."
Although he was going to bleed and give Chu Feng something, he didn't say it so bluntly.
Qi Honglin brought out a simple and unadorned small box. After opening it, he brought out a few bundles of bamboo slips. They carried with them an aura of decay and the marks of time.
When unearthed, these things would immediately rot if they weren't properly preserved.
Chu Feng was astonished. Was this the ancient book that they were going to deliver to him?
He received them and looked at them in detail. They mentioned some mythological characters and vaguely described how powerful experts breathed in and out mist, paying attention to the rhythm of their breathing.
But this was of no use to him!
"Although I'm quite interested in the truth of history and ancient legends, I'm not at the stage where I view them as equal to my own life," Chu Feng said.
"Little friend, don't be anxious. Look carefully, this bamboo slip mentions a secret treasure. It's said to be so powerful that it can sever immortal-level entities."
Qi Honglin was very patient. He explained to Chu Feng the things mentioned in the bamboo slips.
Ordinary people wouldn't be able to recognize the ancient characters.
The bamboo slips mentioned an item that could slay demons, eliminate ghosts, and even sever immortal bodies. Its power was astonishing and it was hidden between heaven and earth.
From Chu Feng's point of view, it was a weapon!
Moreover, it seemed to be extremely powerful and was held in high esteem during ancient times. According to the bamboo slips, it possessed unfathomable power.
"Where is it?" Chu Feng asked.
He knew that the other party wouldn't use a legend to trick him. They must have some clues about where this weapon was buried.
But he could also guess that the place was likely to be very dangerous. Otherwise, why would the race bring it out for him? They would've gone to retrieve it themselves.
"It's buried in a beautiful mountain range," Qi Honglin said.
"You can't take it out, right? That place must be incomparably dangerous," Chu Feng said.
This made Qi Honglin feel quite awkward. That was indeed the case. Moreover, it was only a matter of time before they gave it to Demon King Chu.
In fact, they had discussed among themselves and concluded that even if this item existed, it should've been taken away by someone else. There shouldn't be such a legendary weapon beneath the mountain range.
"Where do you think it is?" Chu Feng asked.
"A dragon's aura steaming, a tiger's killing intent condensed, a dragon and a tiger guarding each other. There's only one place in this terrain," Qi Honglin sighed.
"Mount Longhu?!" Chu Feng frowned.
"Correct. That's the only place in the ancestral court of Taoism where such a mysterious antique could be hidden!" Qi Honglin said.
However, the bamboo slip was badly damaged and was missing a lot of information. It only mentioned a legendary object but didn't describe its appearance in detail.
Chu Feng revealed an odd expression. If there was a weapon buried in the ancestral court of Taoism, then it would be truly terrifying. It would definitely be extraordinarily powerful to be buried in this kind of ancestral ground.
But very soon, he revealed a cold expression and said, "Everyone knows that the current Mount Longhu is extremely dangerous. Many beast kings have died there. What's the meaning of telling me this?"
Chu Feng's expression was cold. He knew that the Pre-Qin Research Institute, Bodhi Biogenetics, Celestial Biology, and Extraterrestrial Research Institute had all attacked Mount Longhu before but had all returned in defeat.
Who knew how many beast kings had died there? It was said that there was something strange on the mountain and they couldn't take it down!
"You want to use a dangerous place like Mount Longhu to lure me to my death?!" He raised his voice.
"Little brother Chu Feng, please don't misunderstand. I'm only telling you that there's a secret treasure there. I have no ill intentions." Qi Honglin shook his head repeatedly and finally admitted that he wanted to cooperate with Chu Feng to attack Mount Longhu.
Chu Feng laughed coldly and said, "You guys really have a good plan!"
"Little brother Chu Feng, I'm not joking. I really want to cooperate with you because that place is too important. The marine race has revealed that even they have their eyes on that place."
Qi Honglin informed him that the ancestral court of Taoism, Kunlun, the ancestral land of Buddhism, and the Pilgrimage Grounds were the most important places. Even the marine race was envious and some experts had come ashore to fight for them.
He went on to say that there would be a great battle in the future. These places were definitely hiding great secrets and needed to be controlled.
Chu Feng had already set his sights on Mount Longhu. Now that he heard this, he felt a wave of suspicion. Even the marine race was going to launch a large-scale attack?
"In order to express my sincerity, I'll tell little brother Chu Feng an extremely important piece of information. The world is about to undergo an intense transformation and we need to conquer a famed mountain as soon as possible. Our first choice is a place like the ancestral court of Taoism."
"I know the world is about to change again." Chu Feng said calmly. He looked at Qi Honglin and said, "Is this bamboo slip your sincerity? This so-called ancient mythological book is only so-so."
To him, this had no real meaning.
"I've prepared a great gift for little brother!" Qi Honglin was helpless. In the end, he took out a small box that was only one foot long. After opening it, there was a small silver spear similar in thickness to a chopstick.
It flickered with silver light and was extremely sharp.
Chu Feng's heart stirred. He used his spiritual energy and the small silver spear immediately rushed out with a swoosh. It spiraled in the room and finally pierced through the several feet thick steel wall with a pfft.
"Not bad." Chu Feng nodded and was delighted. This silver spear was not inferior to his scarlet flying sword and might even be of a higher quality.
Qi Honglin's heart was bleeding. This weapon was excavated from an underground ruin and he had long known it was extraordinary. It was similar to a flying sword and other divine weapons.
However, none of them could use it because they lacked the Imperial Sword Technique.
This time, they had no choice but to bring it along and give it to Chu Feng.
"The Pre-Qin Research Institute lives up to its name. As expected, it has some rare ancient artifacts. It's just that I don't know if the ancient mythological book exists or not." Chu Feng said.
"Isn't this silver spear enough for little brother Chu Feng?"
"You contacted me before and said that there was an ancient mythological book. However, that bamboo slip wasn't one of them. I think there's something else," Chu Feng said.
"There's indeed something rare. In that case, I'll give it to little brother Chu Feng as well." Qi Honglin took out a piece of jade. It was very old and lacked luster. One look and one could tell that it was an ancient item.
Qi Honglin told him that this should be a jade book from the legends and should have records of dao arts. However, there was only a trace of a flood dragon in this piece. Unfortunately, there were no words.
"This item is extraordinary. It was found in the depths of the sea many years ago. We all felt that it was extraordinary but we couldn't figure out anything from it. Today, I'm giving it to you as a token of goodwill. I hope that we can turn hostility into friendship," Qi Honglin said.
Chu Feng took it and looked at it carefully. He discovered that there was indeed a flood dragon phantom in the jade and there was nothing else special about it.
He studied it but couldn't find anything special about it.
Chu Feng casually took a photo of the jade and sent it to Yellow Cattle. He also told it about the details and asked it to help him figure out if this thing was useful.
Yellow Ox gave him a reply almost immediately. It seemed to be very urgent, telling him that he had to keep it safe!
Chu Feng kept the jade without batting an eyelid. He asked it through the communicator, "What is this?
Call for recommendation tickets and request for support. "
