The commotion here also attracted some attention.
Cui Siyin was one of them.
She'd been paying attention to Chen Zhao and Zhang Tianyi's conversation.
First, she'd seen Zhang Tianyi bring Chen Zhao to the Thousand Opportunities Cave.
Then, they'd come to this wooden house that was rather far from the main buildings.
Then, they seemed to have gotten into an argument and even fought.
This wooden house had clearly been destroyed because of their conflict.
However, their conflict had ended as quickly as it had started. Very soon, it stopped again.
These were all Cui Siyin's personal guesses.
Chen Zhao and Zhang Tianyi actually knew that Cui Siyin wasn't far away.
However, neither of them paid attention to her.
"When do we leave?"
"The day after tomorrow," Zhang Tianyi said. "We'll take a private plane and arrive before midnight."
"So, if everything goes well, we'll encounter that thousand-year-old corpse when the Yin Qi is the strongest in the world?" Chen Zhao asked, frowning.
"Not only when the Yin Qi is the strongest in the world, but it's the strongest in the past thousand years," Zhang Tianyi said seriously.
"Why?" "Why must he choose the best time to die?"
"Because he'll break the seal at that time," Zhang Tianyi said. Zhang Tianyi said, "Regardless of whether it's the supernatural world or the higher-ups, they won't allow such a peerless great demon to move freely for even a minute. As long as he's given a quarter of an hour, he can completely disappear and cause an unimaginable catastrophe."
Chen Zhao took a deep breath. "Has something like this ever happened before?"
"Do you know about the Tianqi explosion 400 years ago?"
"Wasn't it determined to be the explosion of Wang Gong Residence's gunpowder warehouse?"
"There's no conclusion, but some people in the Huaxia spiritual world and I know that it was an accident in the Dragon Lock Well."
"I've heard of the Dragon Lock Well. It's said that there's a dragon locked inside. Is that true?"
"In fact, there is a three-thousand-year-old firebird locked inside. It is called the Fire Ghost, and it feeds on living souls. It is said that it was trapped by Liu Bowen in the early Ming Dynasty. Later, Zhu Di moved the capital to suppress the Fire Ghost with the imperial Dragon Qi," Zhang Tianyi said slowly. Even he couldn't tell whether it was true or not.
Chen Zhao listened with great interest. Zhang Tianyi continued, "The original intention was to use the imperial Dragon Qi to suppress the Fire Ghost, but as the capital moved north, the Fire Ghost's magical power reached the heavens and earth. It was actually able to devour the Qi of the imperial Dragon Qi while suppressing it. The Qi of the imperial Dragon Qi also weakened. This is also why after Zhu Di, almost everyone in the Ming Dynasty was mediocre. There wasn't another emperor as powerful as Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Di. In the fifth year of the Tianqi era, the imperial Dragon Qi finally couldn't suppress the Fire Ghost anymore. As time went by, the Fire Ghost used the Qi of the imperial Dragon Qi to break free from the seal. Its magical power was also several times stronger than before. It was also at that time that the cultivators of the Central Plains all came out and fought for a hundred days, finally wiping out the Fire Ghost. However, the aftermath affected the entire Central Plains. First, the Tianqi Emperor died the next year. Some say that it was because the Qi of the imperial Dragon Qi was weak, causing the Tianqi Emperor to lose the protection of the Qi of the imperial Dragon.
Then, the country was destroyed by Emperor Chongzhen. "Zhang Tianyi looked at Chen Zhao." This is also why the higher-ups are paying so much attention to it. Not only can a great demon cause misery, but it can also destroy a country. "
"The dragon and Old Monster Kunlai that I killed before were also great demons, but I think they can only cause trouble in one place at most. Isn't overthrowing the government a bit too scary?"
"Although the Great Serpent Dragon and Old Monster Kunlai sound like they're on the same level as the Fire Ghost, they're actually miles apart. Let's not talk about the others. Just these two alone had participated in the Fire Ghost's Calamity back then. At that time, the two of them combined couldn't even match up to the Fire Ghost."
"Is the difference that big?"
"You've fought them before. How strong do you think they are?"
Chen Zhao pursed his lips. He really didn't think they were that strong.
"I'll find a quiet place to go into seclusion for two days," Chen Zhao said.
"What? You're not confident in this battle? "
"How can I be confident? Would you believe me if I said I'm 100% confident? "
"Where are you going? Dragon Tiger Mountain can provide you with a place. "
"No, you can't." Chen Zhao shook his head.
"If you're worried about old friends disturbing you, don't worry. Cui Siyin can't wait to avoid you."
With that, Zhang Tianyi glanced at Cui Siyin, who was hiding not far away.
Zhang Tianyi roughly knew what Cui Siyin was thinking.
After all, Chen Zhao had left too deep of a trauma in Cui Siyin's heart.
"No, I just need a better place to go into seclusion." Chen Zhao planned to find a place with no one and then enter the River Map.
Because the River Map was very important, Chen Zhao brought it with him on this trip.
"If you're not satisfied with Dragon Tiger Mountain, you won't be able to find a better place in all of Huaxia, unless you go to the capital."
Zhang Tianyi knew that Chen Zhao was afraid of trouble, so he couldn't go to the capital.
Chen Zhao shook his head. "I just know a better place."
Seeing that Chen Zhao had made up his mind, Zhang Tianyi didn't try to persuade him anymore.
What Chen Zhao needed now was time.
Chen Zhao could vaguely feel it.
The thing he'd dug out from Old Monster Kunlai's brain that day was very important.
It wasn't crucial to this battle.
It was crucial to his future path.
Inner world, chaotic aura.
Chen Zhao had found a very secluded place.
No one would come to this place for sure.
This was the second highest peak in the world that was the hardest to climb, Mount Chogo.
Chen Zhao dug a crack in the ice himself. After entering, he sealed the crack.
Chen Zhao buried himself in the belly of the mountain.
In the belly of the mountain, Chen Zhao hadn't entered the River Map yet.
Suddenly, a strange aura came from under his feet.
This aura was completely different from magical power. It was similar to the Immortal Qi that he cultivated.
But it wasn't exactly the same. Chen Zhao used brute force and smashed through the rock layer.
As he went deeper, the aura became clearer.
By then, Chen Zhao had smashed through at least 10,000 meters of rock and reached the bottom of Mount Chogo.
Finally, after Chen Zhao punched through a thick layer of rock, the bottom suddenly collapsed. Chen Zhao fell into a huge lava cave.
Below them was a huge lava lake, and in the center of the lava lake stood a tall tower.
On the platform of the tower, a withered body sat cross-legged.
It was a body that had lost its vitality long ago, but its power still remained.
This power had been protecting the body, preventing it from being affected by the surrounding heat. Even its clothes weren't damaged at all.
Chen Zhao was very confused about this body.
Judging from its clothes, it was at least 300 years old. It also had some bronze items, so Chen Zhao suspected that it might be even older, even more than 2,000 years old.
But its power still hadn't completely dissipated. Who was it when it was alive?
How could it stay for so long without losing its power?
