Wang Zun and Dugu Sword Demon looked at the intelligence before them and couldn't help but frown.
"What's your take on this, old master?"
Wang Zun took the initiative to ask.
Although he was an old man himself,
he was over sixty years younger than Dugu Sword Demon.
One could say that when the other became a Saint, he was still a young lad.
Dugu Sword Demon pondered for a moment and said,
"Chen Feng has already entered the Kunlun Mountains. After he comes out, we'll ask him if he knows the specifics."
Seeing the words "completely open the mountain," Dugu Sword Demon instinctively thought of that enormous flood dragon.
He could sense it.
The mountain being completely opened was definitely not a good thing.
Elsewhere.
Chen Feng carried a large backpack of snacks,
along with the three toy trains Qianqian had exchanged for her friend using the Vermilion Fruits last time.
After all, it was three Vermilion Fruits.
Chen Feng felt too embarrassed to swindle others.
So, for each toy train, he had specially added ten extra carriages.
To ease the burden on his conscience.
The moment Chen Feng stepped into the Kunlun Mountains,
the mountain spirit and water essence within the Jade Mountain's Jasper Pool immediately transformed into Chen Feng's likeness and became active.
The Mysterious Turtle and the Spirit Crane were also awakened.
"That guy is here again."
The Spirit Crane stretched its wings, intending to go notify Qianqian.
But the Mysterious Turtle slowly spoke up:
"You go make contact with him. Ask him what has happened to the earth outside."
"Also, remind that Qilin that someone is deliberately performing blood sacrifices to the Kunlun."
"The flood dragon at the Azure Dragon's Grave will likely transform into a dragon soon."
The Spirit Crane stared at Chen Feng's phantom in the Jasper Pool.
"It's a pity he's growing too slowly."
"With his current strength, he's not yet capable of helping us stop the flood dragon's transformation."
After saying this, the Spirit Crane flapped its wings and flew towards the summit of the Jade Mountain.
The Mysterious Turtle looked at the heavily fruited Vermilion Fruit tree by the Jasper Pool.
Speaking to the mountain spirit and water essence within the pool, it said:
"You need to be prepared."
"The Spirit Crane and I, plus that Qilin, might not necessarily be a match for the flood dragon."
The mountain spirit and water essence were powerful, but unfortunately, their intelligence wasn't very high.
Yet, it could feel that its own situation was perilous.
It also knew that once the flood dragon was about to transform into a horned dragon,
it would certainly charge into the Jade Mountain's Jasper Pool and devour it.
At this moment, the mountain spirit and water essence could only transform into Qianqian's appearance, looking pitifully at the Mysterious Turtle.
Seeing the mountain spirit and water essence like this,
the Mysterious Turtle let out a human-like sigh.
...
At the mountain summit, the sound of a zither lingered softly.
The Qilin lay peacefully beside Qianqian,
enjoying the tranquil time.
A crane's cry shattered this peaceful moment.
Through the sound waves of the zither, Qianqian saw the Spirit Crane flying towards her.
She immediately said happily:
"Spirit Crane, have you also come to listen to me play the zither?"
The Spirit Crane landed beside Qianqian and said:
"I came to inform you that your master has arrived again."
Qianqian immediately stood up excitedly.
"Great!"
"Qilin, let's go quickly!"
The Qilin didn't hesitate either, swallowing Qianqian in one gulp.
The Spirit Crane nearby couldn't help but close its eyes at this sight.
Although this wasn't the first time it had seen it.
The next moment, the Qilin vanished.
The Spirit Crane remarked teasingly:
"When a fool and a simpleton are together, they always like to do unexpected things."
The next moment, it too flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
Its crane eyes swept over the mountain range below, quickly locking onto Chen Feng's location.
Then, like an arrow, it shot towards the direction where Chen Feng was.
This time, Chen Feng chose a broad stone platform.
He placed the two large bags of things he was carrying on the platform.
Based on previous experiences, he sat waiting for Qianqian to appear.
Soon, a gust of wind swept by, stirring up a ground full of fallen leaves.
Chen Feng looked over.
A massive Qilin, over four meters tall, appeared out of thin air in that spot.
The next moment, the Qilin opened its mouth and spat out a little girl.
Even though he had seen it many times,
Chen Feng was still somewhat unaccustomed to this method of arrival.
Qianqian took the harmonica from her pocket.
She gave it a gentle blow.
Seeing her master and the bags on the stone platform, she unabashedly ran towards the bags.
"Wow!"
"This will last me and Qilin for a long time again."
"We finished the last batch ages ago."
Chen Feng asked with concern:
"Qianqian, how have you been lately?"
Gu Qianqian smiled and said:
"I've been doing pretty well lately!"
"It's just that the bad snake from the Four Symbols Chasm suddenly appeared outside the chasm."
"It ate a lot of dinosaurs and caused quite a commotion."
"I was really scared, afraid it would eat the Qilin too."
Hearing about the flood dragon,
Chen Feng immediately pressed:
"Does your Ancient Clan have any news about Zhang Bowen?"
Qianqian shook her head.
"There's been no news of the big bad guy for a long time."
"Every time the big bad guy leaves the Kunlun Mountains, he only comes back once every few decades."
"Or he comes back when he's seriously injured."
With no news of Zhang Bowen,
Chen Feng didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
According to what Dugu Sword Demon said,
at the final moment, Zhang Bowen and three other Martial Saints were swallowed whole by the flood dragon.
He didn't know if Zhang Bowen was dead or not.
If he wasn't dead, and this guy went out to stir up trouble again,
that would truly be a cause for unease.
Just then, the Spirit Crane also descended from the sky.
It landed on the stone platform.
Qianqian, without any ceremony, started opening snacks herself while blowing the harmonica.
The Qilin also habitually used its claw to grab a pack of cream puffs, wrapper and all, and tossed it into its mouth.
Sensing through the sound waves that the Spirit Crane had also arrived,
Qianqian immediately shared half of the snack in her hand with the Spirit Crane.
The Spirit Crane also showed no hesitation.
It began to enjoy the half piece of saqima (a sweet pastry) Qianqian handed over.
The human and the two beasts ate quite merrily.
Chen Feng generally didn't care much for snacks.
But seeing them eat with such relish,
he couldn't help but sit on the edge of the stone platform.
He opened a pack of crispy peanut snacks and started eating with Qianqian.
The peanuts made a satisfying crunch with each bite.
The crunch crunch sound soon caught the Spirit Crane's attention.
Chen Feng grinned and handed the peanuts in his hand to the Spirit Crane.
The Spirit Crane unceremoniously accepted them.
It tasted them one by one.
Chen Feng really liked this feeling.
These spiritual beasts weren't like humans; they didn't engage in excessive politeness.
They would clearly show their desires—if they wanted to eat, they ate. It was simple and straightforward.
Chen Feng opened another pack of shrimp crackers and continued eating.
The two humans and two beasts all focused on tasting the snacks.
To be honest, Chen Feng felt these snacks were just average, not particularly delicious.
But the atmosphere was good.
It felt like they weren't just eating snacks, but a moment of peace, a relaxation of the mind.
Qianqian happily opened pack after pack of snacks.
She shared them with Chen Feng and the two spiritual beasts from time to time.
"Qilin, try this one, it's so spicy!"
"Spirit Crane, this looks like little dried fish!"
"Master, what is this crispy pastry?"
"This scallion oil cracker is so fragrant, buy me more next time."
...
Chen Feng looked at his utterly unceremonious disciple, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled.
His heart, which had grown heavy because of Zhang Bowen,
found a rare moment of relaxation at this time.

ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?
