In the Cloud Mountain Range, the beast tide was surging.

The beasts Chu Yang ordered belonged to foreign beasts. If it was only one or two, there might not be much of a problem, but there were tens of thousands of them.

If they were to gather together, the beast aura would be so strong that it would reach the heavens. To the native demonic beasts in the Cloud Mountain Range, this was a provocation. They were here to steal their territory.

So, the aboriginal beasts grouped together and responded to the provocation of the outsiders. The Monstrous Beasts of Imperial Censor Chu Yang really wanted to rely on their instincts to rush up and kill.

However, under Chu Yang's orders, they could only search around, looking for the location of the kurst army. Even the Poison Tailed Bees were flying in the mountains.

There were still many warriors lingering around the pool. When they heard the roars of beasts that filled the mountains, they were so scared that their faces turned ashen.

Even a martial practitioner at the Large Success Realm was shivering!

The beast tide was just too terrifying. Wherever it went, not even a blade of grass would grow.

They did not have time to think about the treasures within the lake and quickly found a place to hide and avoid the beast tide.

Somewhere in a hidden valley.

Inside, there were ten thousand rugged mountains. They were wearing armor and carrying blades and arrows. Beneath them were ferocious looking and extremely ferocious mountain cliffs demon beasts.

The Cliff Demon Beast was the most brutal. It went crazy the moment it saw blood, and the madder it became, the stronger it became.

It was especially suitable for fighting in the forest. Climbing a mountain was like walking on flat ground.

The more than ten thousand demonic beasts that the Grand Shang Empire had expended all their resources to nurture were extremely brutal. Furthermore, the lowest grade among them were Earth lower grade beasts.

That's right, it was a low-grade earth-step treasure.

This was the killing weapon of the King of Merchants. It was used to attack the outer regions of the Cloud Mountain Range as well as dozens of surrounding cities to block the armies of the Great Barbarian and Great Qing empires.

If it was before, the commander of the mountain Kuku army, the trading company, would have made a declaration of battle long ago, but now, he didn't say a word, and his face was gloomy.

The third son of the Merchant King.

The Grand Shang Empire had yet to determine the position of crown prince, but as long as he took down this huge piece of land, he would be the crown prince of Grand Shang.

However, just as they were about to set off for battle, the roars of the beasts in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range shook the skies and echoed through the entire valley. With such concentrated roars, there was a high chance of forming a beast tide.

If they really did encounter a monster tide, even if he brought along the ten thousand mountains and canyons army, it would still be a tragedy.

If they weren't submerged in the beast tide, they would be losing troops.

No matter what happened, it was impossible for him to complete the mission given to him by his father, and the position of crown prince would no longer belong to him.

The merchant's heart was filled with hatred. A green-robed scholar next to him said, "My lord, we can't wait any longer. Let's kill our way down the mountain before the demonic beasts gather."

Otherwise, it'll be hard for us to block the monster tide in the Cloud Mountain Range! If nothing unexpected happens, the Lei Bao Army has already taken down the White Horse City. If the Beast Upheaval attacks, we can use the city as our defense and avoid this calamity. "

"The advisor's words make sense, but what if we run into a beast tide before we even reach the foot of the mountain?"

The scholar in blue frowned. It was not impossible.

"Also, if we hide right here and restrain all of our auras, would it be possible for us to avoid the beast tide?"

"There is such a possibility! But we can't take the risk! It's fine if this valley isn't discovered, but once it's discovered, it'll be a nightmare. We'll be exhausted to death here, and it'll be a complete wipeout!

In comparison, it's a bit better to rush out. Even if you meet with a beast tide halfway, the Prince will be able to take a portion of his men and leave. There's also the possibility of completing the mission! "

The green-gowned scholar still preferred to rush out to kill. The merchant said, "I know that a Military Advisor's words are the best choice.

But This King still wants to take a gamble!

"It's not a bet to stay in the valley and not be discovered by demon beasts."

"What does Your Highness want to bet?"

"Generally speaking, when a beast tide is about to erupt, there will be signs of it happening! But this time, there was no sign of it, and it was completely unfathomable!

There must be something wrong here!

The most likely treasure is the one in the pool. I didn't pay much attention to it before, but now it seems to be something serious.

A strange treasure that could cause such a massive wave of beasts to appear was definitely a heaven-defying treasure!

If I can obtain it, then there is a high chance that this monster tide will be of use to me. At that time, forget about forming a defensive plan, even the entire Grand Xia Dynasty will have to prostrate themselves before this duke's murderous power.

As for this Cloud Mountain, what we can occupy is not just the outer regions. We can take down a portion of the inner regions that are deeper within the mountain.

At that time, the crown prince of a merchant, who would he let go of?

This King wants to gamble on whether or not I can obtain that Heavenly Treasure. "

Hearing the words of the merchant from far away, the eyes of the green-gowned Scholar lit up. The killing out of Cloud Mountain Range that he had mentioned was actually just a gamble.

However, the bet was not too big.

However, since he had already gambled, he might as well make a bigger bet. If the prince were to win the bet, he would not only obtain the position of crown prince.

The scholar in blue thought for a moment, his eyes firm. "The prince is wise! Although there are risks in this, there are risks in everything you do.

In comparison, the risk was not as great as they had imagined. Although there were quite a few warriors that had gathered around the pool, they were far from being a match for the Army of Mountain Ku.

Moreover, the beast tide was approaching. They had probably left long ago to find a place to hide! We can find a way to get to the pool as fast as we can, set up a formation, and have the Mountain Ruins gather into a battle formation!

Even if the monster tide comes, we can still fight it out. Even if we fail, the lake is still an escape route! Most importantly, no matter how dangerous the situation is, as long as we can obtain the Heavenly Treasure, we can make a comeback. "

With the support of the Military Advisor, the trading firm let out a sigh of relief. "In order to obtain more valuable treasures, I would like to ask for the help of the Military Advisor."

"Your Highness, please instruct me. Shen Ming will do his best."

"Please calculate, advisor, what is the biggest obstacle in obtaining the treasure. Once this obstacle is obtained, I will lead the mountain and gather all the forces within my army to eliminate this obstacle!"

"Alright!"

Shen Ming did not hesitate and immediately took out a bronze mirror!

The mirror was yellow, and it was impossible to see a person in it.

There were profound runes on the back, and as soon as he took it out, a simple, unadorned aura assaulted his senses.

This was the Mysterious Mirror!

In the underworld, there was a mystery!

And what Shen Ming communicated with was the 4th Heavenly Layer, Grade 9 turtle shell Astral Soul.

A turtle shell, often used for divination.

The reason why he suggested the trading companies to go out into the distance was to make a slight divination. If they stayed in the valley, the consequences would be very serious.

However, he did not use the Mysterious Mirror!

Because the Mysterious Mirror could not be moved lightly, there was a huge price to be paid for being able to see a bit of the mysteries of the world.

It could even be fate!

But now, the trading firm's gamble was about survival, about their future path, and even about deciding their future fate.

The reason why he was able to assist the trading company in their journey was because he was able to divine the trading company's ability to accomplish an unprecedented feat. Although there had been a slight fluctuation recently, he believed that his divination was correct.

When the trading company ascended to the peak of the mountain, he could also see the endless scenery of the world. Thus, this time, no matter what price he had to pay, he would help the trading company get a better understanding of the mystery behind this.

Immediately, the trading firm activated its Astral Soul to the extreme, drawing out its lifeblood essence and dripping it onto the Mystery Mirror.

One drop, two drops, three drops!

The faint yellow of the Mysterious Mirror had completely dispersed, like clear water that could be seen through to the bottom.

However, what was reflected inside was not the appearance of Shen Ming, the merchant guild leader, and the rest, but rather a starry sky.

According to the legends, every star was an Astral Soul.

After a cultivator died, their Astral Souls would return to the Heavens.

As a result, the stars were endless and would never be extinguished!

And every single martial artist was related to the starry sky. The piece of mystery that Shen Ming wanted to see was within this starry sky.

Shen Ming poured his true essence into the mystery and chanted some incantation. The stars in the mirror began to spin, some appeared, some disappeared.

But the more he calculated, the more Shen Ming frowned.

It was difficult.

Soon after, Shen Ming once again revealed a smile. The more difficult it was, the greater the obstacle would be.

Naturally, that treasure was even more powerful.

If the trading firm obtained it from afar, it would be able to fly very high, perhaps even soar into the sky.

Even Chu Yang, who had renewed his Astral Soul from the White Horse City, couldn't compare to the business firm.

Immediately, Shen Ming dripped more blood and went deeper into the prophecy.

When he reached the bottom of the mountain, Shen Ming spat out a large mouthful of blood, and his flesh and blood burst apart.

"Just what kind of existence is this barrier? Why was I seriously injured just by calculating the direction?

However, what was a serious injury?

Now that I have a direction and a precise location, no matter how strong you are, you will become a stepping stone for the king! "

Shen Ming was a hundred times more confident, and continued to use his Life Essence Blood to divine his position.

With this divination, the Mysterious Mirror began to tremble.

"Does it count as one?" it's not even a position? "

Shen Ming's expression changed greatly. He had a premonition that if he were to forcibly continue the divination process, he might suffer an unprecedented amount of damage.

But at this point, he couldn't not be!

Shen Ming began burning his life!

His hair had turned white at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his face was quickly covered in wrinkles.

In the blink of an eye, Shen Ming had changed from a rather handsome middle-aged man to an old man.

The trading firm was shocked!

At the same time, he was also secretly delighted in his heart. He thought the same as Shen Ming. The more obstacles there were, the more heaven-defying the Heavenly Treasure would be!

As for whether or not they could kill the obstacles, the trading company had a ninety percent chance of doing so.

After being spied on by Shen Ming, he would be able to find the weakness of that existence. However, he still has the Ruins of the Mountain, an existence that can fight against someone at the Great Circle of the Clear Sky Realm.

In addition to the trump card he had, all obstacles must be eliminated!

Just as he was thinking, there was a loud explosion.

The Mysterious Mirror cracked.

The stars in the sky instantly disappeared without a trace.

As for Shen Ming, his body began to explode into blossoms of blood. At the same time, he was also rotting, emitting waves of a terrible stench.

His heartbeat was still faintly discernible, and his breathing was faintly discernible.

The trading firm's face was filled with shock as he hastily took out a precious Heaven Rank pill and fed it to Shen Ming. He then anxiously asked, "Military Advisor, how is it? Did you figure out what the obstacle was? "

"He's alone, in that position."

"Then what's his weakness?"

"Not worth it!" I only calculated that he was a person, and before I could calculate whether he was a man or a woman, I suffered a fatal backlash.

He couldn't, he couldn't touch it!

Such a person, regardless of gender, was a great monster. Monstrous monsters do not die easily. Your Highness, do you still insist on betting? "
