Immortal Venerable of the Beast Race
Chapter 142 - 142 90 Gigarich_2

142: 90 Gigarich_2 142: 90 Gigarich_2 The colossal tiger shadow spat out a green sound wave, charging forward.

The green sound wave collided with the giant fireball; the latter exploded instantly, its roaring flames immediately engulfing Chen Hao’s figure.

A fierce wind swept through, scattering the flames, and yet another giant fireball fell from the sky.

Chen Hao tried to dodge, but over a dozen thick green vines burst from the ground, entangling his feet while a sharp screeching sound rang out.

His head felt heavy, and his brows furrowed tightly.

The colossal tiger shadow once again spat out a green sound wave towards the giant fireball.

The green sound wave collided with the giant fireball, which burst apart instantly, once more submerging Chen Hao in rolling flames.

This time, before the flames had even cleared, another giant fireball smashed down, followed swiftly by a third and a fourth.

Thunderous booming sounds echoed, turning the hundred zhang radius around Chen Hao into a crimson sea of fire.

Shen Long’s hands both lifted, casting one after another giant fireball toward Chen Hao, while the Iron Tail Scorpion deployed a divine sense attack to disrupt him.

Yu Susu sacrificed a seal flickering with green light which, after expanding to the size of a house, smashed towards Chen Hao.

Two black axes flew out from within the flames, clashing with the green seal, producing a sound as if gold was striking iron.

A green tornado swept in, plunging into the sea of fire, dispersing the flames and revealing Chen Hao, who stood covered by a black light screen, drenched in sweat.

The green tornado struck the black light screen, which caved inward.

Chen Hao’s right hand donned a black gauntlet; he threw a punch, and a giant shadow of a black fist flew out, colliding with the green tornado.

The tornado instantly burst apart, sending a multitude of giant wind blades slicing in every direction, leaving the ground pitted and uneven.

Earth-shattering thunderclaps filled the sky as a massive five-colored thundercloud appeared above Chen Hao.

Chen Hao thought with alarm that this was bad.

Just as he was about to dodge, a sharp screech pierced the air, and he furrowed his brow.

A bolt of thunder sounded, a thick five-colored lightning bolt striking down, hitting the black light screen, which flickered and dimmed.

Before Chen Hao could react, a second five-colored lightning struck, along with a giant wind blade that flew towards the black light screen.

He wanted to defend himself, but with the Iron Tail Scorpion’s piercing screech, Chen Hao’s brow furrowed tightly.

The five-colored lightning hit the black light screen, dimming its spiritual light further.

At the same time, a red firebird flew in, crashing against the screen.

With a rumbling boom, the red firebird exploded, turning into rolling flames that engulfed Chen Hao once again.

A golden spear, glittering with light, shot forward, striking the black light screen, which shattered like paper.

Chen Hao crossed his arms to block in front of him.

The golden spear pierced through his right arm but was stopped by his left.

The spear trembled slightly at the tip before breaking off, transforming into thousands of Gold Ants.

They congealed into hundreds of golden arrows that aimed straight for Chen Hao.

With a scream of agony, Chen Hao’s eyes were pierced by the golden arrows.

The arrows struck his chest, making a dull ‘thud, thud’ sound.

He fell to the ground, blood streaming from his head.

Shen Long let out a long sigh of relief, wiping the sweat from his face.

He turned to look at Yu Susu, who shivered and hastily said, “Taoist Friend Shen, you can have everything.”

She never expected Chen Hao and Bai Bing to turn on each other.

Had it not been for Shen Long’s intervention, Yu Susu would have been in grave danger.

“Fairy Yu, weren’t you aware that they mastered the Totem Techniques?

The technique is rarely practiced by the Human Clan, right?

Even if one wanted to practice it, the methods are not easily obtained.

Considering their skillful use of Totem Techniques against their enemies, they must have mastered it a long time ago,” Shen Long analyzed.

The Totem Techniques of the Barbarian Tribe were somewhat similar to the methods of the Spirit Controllers, deploying totems to attack their enemies, akin to a Life-Bound Spirit Beast; if the essence was killed, the totem would be rendered useless.

“I don’t know either.

I have known them for years and only knew they were Loose Cultivators.

I never heard about them mastering Totem Techniques.

If I had known, I wouldn’t have invited them to lend a hand.

We owe you a great deal this time, Taoist Friend Shen.

Perhaps they are scouts from the Barbarian Tribe,” said Yu Susu.

“Scouts from the Barbarian Tribe?” Shen Long narrowed his eyes, finding this intriguing.

The Barbarian Tribe, the Spirit Control Sect, and the Xuanyang Sect all had spies in Zhao Country.

Could it be for the Yu Family’s treasure?

“I always keep my word.

As we agreed, I’ll give you a share of the treasures,” Shen Long declared.

He had considered silencing her permanently, but after pondering, he decided against it.

He had no feud with Yu Susu, and he wasn’t aware of any critical information she might possess.

If he had killed Yu Susu last time, there would have been no chance to break the barrier and obtain the treasure.

Gathering the belongings of Chen Hao and the others, he cast several fireballs to burn their corpses then proceeded into the stone chamber.

Shen Long released his Divine Sense, carefully inspecting the jade casket, but found no abnormalities.

With a gesture of his spell, over thirty thousand Gold Ants condensed into a massive golden hand, reaching for the golden jade casket.

The hand grasped the casket, pulling it before Shen Long without any anomalies.

Shen Long remotely controlled the Gold Ant to open the casket from afar and took out a golden Storage Bag.

His Divine Sense carefully observed the Storage Bag and found nothing unusual.

“Taoist Friend Shen, you are quite cautious, let me do it!

After so many years, there shouldn’t be any ambushes.”

Yu Susu volunteered eagerly.

Shen Long nodded, and Yu Susu took the golden Storage Bag, shook it with the opening facing downward, and after a sweep of golden light, a large pile of items appeared on the ground, among which two objects were emitting dazzling Spiritual Light.

A golden Jade Pendant and a golden spherical pearl, those two objects were emitting tremendous spiritual energy fluctuations.

“Dharma Treasures!”

Shen Long’s eyes were fervent.

Besides the two Dharma Treasures, there was also a top-quality Magic Artifact, over twenty thousand Spirit Stones, some Jade Slips, and Monster Beast Materials.

“Taoist Friend Shen, I will just take some Spirit Stones,” said Yu Susu, her expression tense.

Shen Long was too powerful; killing her would have been as easy as flipping his hand.

“There’s no need for that, the two Dharma Treasures will be mine, you can have the top-quality Magic Artifact and the twenty thousand Spirit Stones, the rest will be mine, how about it?”

Shen Long offered.

Yu Susu nodded hurriedly, agreeing, and took away a top-quality Magic Artifact and over twenty thousand Spirit Stones.

“Taoist Friend Shen, I have another matter to attend to and must not stay any longer, take care of yourself.”

After saying these words, Yu Susu quickly walked out.

Shen Long collected the items on the ground along with the Spirit Beast and Spirit Insects and left the place as well.

Two months later, Shen Long returned to the Profound Yin Marketplace.

Being cautious, he changed his appearance and arrived at the Rain Listening Tower, requesting a private room.

Shen Long took out a blue Messaging Plate, input a spell, and Chen Li’s voice emerged, “Master Uncle Yu, do you have any instructions?”

“Has there been anything unusual in Zhao Country’s Cultivation Realm or the marketplaces recently?

For instance, the sudden appearance of a group of unfamiliar Cultivators.”

Shen Long inquired.

“There’s nothing unusual in the marketplace, but the Hundred Ghosts Sect captured several Barbarian Tribe spies and issued a wide notice, advising all major powers to watch out for external Cultivators to prevent Barbarian Tribe spies from infiltrating,” Chen Li reported.

“Barbarian Tribe spies!

Do you know their purpose?”

Shen Long frowned and asked.

“It’s unclear; the Hundred Ghosts Sect only mentioned that Barbarian Tribe spies have infiltrated Zhao Country, not their purpose,” Chen Li explained.

“Understood, notify me immediately if there is any new information,” Shen Long commanded, ending the communication and then reached out to Liu Shi.

Before long, the voice of Liu Yuruo came from the Messaging Plate, “Senior Yu, I finally managed to contact you.”

“What happened?

Has Liu Shi returned?”

Shen Long asked.

“Grandfather has returned, but he was afflicted with a strange poison and has passed away from the outbreak.

Before dying, he told me some critical information to relay to you,” Liu Yuruo said in a mournful voice.

“What information?”

Shen Long asked, puzzled.

“The Liu Family, the number one Cultivation family of Zhao Country, through marriage ties with the Xu Family, discovered something in the Green Cloud Mountain Range.

Foundation Establishment Cultivators are stationed there with Formations set up.

My grandfather got exposed while gathering intelligence and was struck with a mysterious poison.

He managed to escape using an Earth Escape Talisman and return to the marketplace, only to perish not long after,” Liu Yuruo explained slowly.

“The Xu Family!

The Green Cloud Mountain Range!

Formations set up!”

Shen Long’s brows furrowed, and a pensive look crossed his face; the Green Cloud Mountain Range was located at the border of Qin Country and Zhao Country and was not small in size.
