Chapter 436: Treasure Hunting

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

The arrival of the occurrences and the spikes in the spiritual energy did not only affect the humans.

If the big willow tree which almost destroyed Mountain Ocean City during the second occurrence was a standalone case, the third occurrence would not only commence the cultivation for humans. Trees, grasses, and animals alike would also be able to start on their cultivation!

A few years ago, a few exceptions had invaded the cities from the forests but now, this would only be a common sight.

Fang Yuan would no longer be surprised at the appearance of wild beasts attacking the cities.

"It's going to be soon... In another 10 years, we will know the final secret of this realm!"

Fang Yuan gazed afar and his eyes were filled with thirst.

As a dream-traverser, how would he stop before finding out the final secret of the realm?

"Of course... I have a final treasure in my hands."

Fang Yuan returned to the Chinese courtyard house and realised that there were two military personnel waiting in their uniform, a male and a female.

"Good morning, the both of you."

He smiled and looked at his old friend. "Are you here this early to wish me a happy new year?"

"That's right!"

Zhao Daniu exchanged glances with Ye Yingzi and smiled.

After many years in the service, even the honest bloke Zhao Daniu would have some accomplishments by now.

Although they had long suspected that this Lei was Fang Yuan, since Fang Yuan did not admit to being Lei, they could only continue the act and treat him like an outsider.

"Angel, prepare some tea!"

After entering the Chinese courtyard house, Fang Yuan instructed a blonde to pour tea for the two guests.

After observation, Fang Yuan could tell that the special ability of his adoptive daughter had improved, but she had not reached the 4th Tier.

As for her cultivation? Fang Yuan had long given up on it.

After all, considering her special ability in disrupting the flow of spiritual droplets, it would be almost impossible for her to absorb spiritual droplets in the air to improve her cultivation.

Even if Fang Yuan were to bring her to the Spiritual Gathering Array last night, almost half of the spiritual energy would be dispersed.

"Thank you!"

Ye Yingzi received the cup of tea from Angel and took out a red packet. On the other hand, Zhao Daniu's expression turned to one of uneasiness and Fang Yuan could tell that his special ability has been hindered.

"Alright, why are the both of you here?"

Fang Yuan took a sip of tea and knew that they would not be here for no reason.

"This... Mister Lei, are you aware of what your other daughter, Lorita, is up to?"

Looking at Zhao Daniu, Ye Yingzi gave up and directly asked.

"Why? Has she caused trouble again?"

Fang Yuan rubbed his forehead. "This is troubling. You can do whatever you want to her and I would have no qualms about it!"

"It's not that..."

Embarrassed, Ye Yingzi quickly replied and rolled her eyes.

She was a higher-up of the White Pigeon Society, the Shadow Demon Lorita. She would be considered one of the most powerful mutants in the world, so who would dare to educate her?

"Not only did she not cause trouble, she has also worked with the humans to maintain peace in Banyan Tree City. We have even brought the Letter of Commendation and award for her!"

Ye Yingzi composed herself and continued. "However, in a recent investigation, we have realised that Lorita might be in a little bit of trouble. Therefore, we are here to inform you about it."

With that, she passed a stack of documents to Fang Yuan.

"Lorita should be locating a secret cave in Bull's Head Mountain, right? Unknowingly, that place has also attracted foreigners... Initially, the foreigners were nothing much."

Zhao Daniu added. "However, according to the insider news we have received this morning... The Curia of the East Continent had hurriedly sent out a group of elites to the mountain, led by the archbishop... Because of this, the Golden Eagle Federation and the Blue Star Alliance have also reacted and since Lorita is involved, we believe that she might be in danger."

"People from the Curia?"

Fang Yuan frowned.

Because of the fact that Fang Yuan had created a huge commotion in the Golden Eagle Federation, he chose to maintain a low profile while he was in the East Continent. However, the Curia was the largest group of mutants in the Blue Star Alliance and were against mutants such as the werewolves and vampires, and Fang Yuan was aware of all these.

"Previously, under the attack of the Curia, the evil forces had been weakened. The Curia had also formed an alliance with the Blue Star Government, sharing their intelligence with each other. One of our people sent us this!"

Zhao Daniu placed a leather box on the table. After opening it, a screen was revealed.

After a few flickers, the image of what had happened on Holy Mountain appeared on the screen.

Believers covered the entire mountain like ants. Everything that happened, including the brief appearance of Heaven, were captured.

However, after the appearance of Heaven and the arrival of The Angel, the screen went blank.

"What views do you have on this, Mister Lei?"

"There might be a half plane on the top of the Holy Mountain. It seems like something powerful was residing in it before being awakened last night..."

Fang Yuan rubbed his chin.

This was nothing surprising under such circumstances.

After all, there was already the existence of mutants and supernatural cultivators in this planet. If even the mermaids could have such a plan of creating a plane, why couldn't other species do the same thing?

There was the inheritance of cultivators in the Middle Continent and therefore, a few Heavens and Hells in the East Continent would not be surprising.

However, their technology was much more advanced than the mermaids for it to hold on for a thousand years before successfully returning to the earth at the moment of the next occurrence.

"Furthermore... The activation of such half planes seems to be related to the concentration of spiritual droplets in the world..."

"You're indeed the mighty Mister Lei to have such knowledge in this aspect!"

Ye Yingzi's eyes glistened as though she was hinting at something.

"Only a little, only a little!"

Fang Yuan took a sip of tea. "What do you think the intention of the Curia is, now that they have entered the Middle Continent?"

"We feel threatened exactly because we don't know what they are after..."

Ye Yingzi sounded helpless. "In the wee hours of the morning today, there were warnings in almost every location. Not just about mutants, but there were a few cases of normal wild animals harming humans. Some other secluded villages even had their communication with the city cut. To speak the truth, the chief of bureau is already panicking over this and it is impossible for him to deploy troops here..."

She had a desolate look on her face.

Fang Yuan felt a little pity for her. The entire Banyan Tree City was a rather secluded city and the man in charge, Zhao Daniu, was merely a Murderous Grade mutant who had limited powers.

He could not even deal with a Lorita, let alone the foreign forces.

"Mmm, I understand now. I will pay more attention to this."

Fang Yuan nodded his head and sent his guests off as his eyes glistened.

He was the clearest about news regarding the cave at Bull's Head Mountain.

After all, the location which the Aquilaria Maitreya and the Asura pointed to was towards Bull's Head Mountain!

"This is a thousand year seal. I wonder what the ancient cultivators have left for me?"

His heart was filled with anticipation.

"Brother Fang!"

Ye Yingzi stood up. Zhao Daniu fidgeted and his eyes turned red. "Come back... The chief of bureau and ourselves cannot hold on much longer."

"Brother Fang?"

Fang Yuan appeared stunned. "Who is that? Was he your old friend?"

"Enough, Comrade Zhao Daniu! Where's your discipline!"

Ye Yingzi remained solemn and secretly observed Fang Yuan's expression. Disappointed, she pulled Zhao Daniu and took their leave.

...

"Adoptive Father!"

When the both of them had left, Angel asked with curiosity. "Are they your old friends? Does this count as revealing your true emotions?"

Her eyeballs darted around and Fang Yuan did not know what she was thinking.

"Aiyo... what are you doing?"

Fang Yuan rapped her head, making her cry.

"Don't let your thoughts run wild. Also, take out the two figurines from my safe in the room!"

Fang Yuan instructed.

"Oh."

Angel leaped playfully into the house and within a few moments, she retrieved the Aquilaria Maitreya and the Asura.

Now, even she could detect that something was unusual with the two figurines.

A faint purple glow appeared on the surface of both figurines but did not show any signs of fading.

"Hmm..."

Fang Yuan glanced at Angel with a mysterious look. "If not for the fact that you are around, I'm afraid these two figurines would have been activated and shocked the world."

Under such a huge disturbance of spiritual energy, these two figurines could still emit the purple glow, proving that they were special figurines.

"Does this mean... these two are treasures? I know, they must be the magical equipment written in the legends!"

Angel's eyes glistened with excitement.

"You're wrong. They are merely a key!"

Fang Yuan stretched his hands out and shattered both figurines.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

From the crumbled pieces, a faint purple glow started to fuse together, forming the shape of a gem. There was a visible vibration of purple energy within the gem.

"Oh! Oh! Are we going to look for treasure?"

Angel became increasingly excited. "I'll prepare."

"No need for preparations. After all, it is just outside our house and we will reach it in a few steps!"

Fang Yuan shook his head. Controlling Angel, he made her fly up as they rushed towards Bull's Head Mountain.

...

Bull's Head Mountain.

"Roar! Roar!"

"Aw! Aw!"

Wild beasts of every species appeared. They were all huge in size and none of them feared death as they charged towards a particular party of people.

"Such cute pigs and monkeys..."

Seeing the animals, Lorita smiled and a shadow appeared around her. Like a black arm, she grabbed on to an aggressive monkey and forced it to kneel before her. "Be a good boy and I will buy a banana for you..."

She stroked the monkey's fur on its head but had a serious look on her face. 'This type of monkey was just a normal monkey yesterday. However, today, it has transformed into a monster. Its ability makes it as powerful as a Ghost Grade mutant already."

"Ah!"

"Help!"

With a slight hesitation, a member of her party was being coiled up by a python and was stunned.

"Leader Cai, quickly save him!"

One of the group members wailed as a middle-aged man fused a small fireball before him before smashing it on the huge snake.

"Hiss..."

The huge snake was in pain and tightened its grip even more, causing the unlucky fellow to roll suffer even more and was on the brink of death.

"Hehe... Leader Cai, you will harm him instead!"

Lorita chuckled. A shadow appeared behind her and struck down like a sharp knife.

With a flash, the python was beheaded.
