Chapter 339: Warring States Leads the Way



When Chen Guan set foot on the Suspended Island, he immediately felt the Primordial Energy around him was suddenly so dense, it was unimaginable how many times it had multiplied.

As he operated the Secret Technique of One, Chen Guan instantly felt the Primordial Energy around him surge into his body like a mighty river, far surpassing the effectiveness of the elixirs he usually consumed.

The Primordial Energy here was not only dense but its purity and quality were simply on another level compared to other places.

Chen Guan suddenly thought of the reason: "This is Primordial Energy coming from the Grotto Heaven..."

Back then, Dragon Tiger Mountain was knocked into the Grotto Heaven by that thing, landing on the Divine Land, and high-level Primordial Energy from the Grotto Heaven spread out, forming today's Dragon Tiger Mountain Blessed Land.

The Primordial Energy of the two mountains was thus diluted and dispersed, making it no different from a typical Blessed Land Secret Mirror.

This was why the Dragon and Tiger tribes had to return to the Grotto Heaven. In such a place, they couldn't cultivate, their power would only decline, and future generations would become weaker.

If they couldn't return to the Grotto Heaven, they would eventually become ordinary Blessed Land Secret Spirits.

Only in the presence of that alien object was there some Grotto Heaven Elemental Energy retained, which, due to the object's suppression, hadn't been diluted or escaped.

For the Dragon and Tiger tribes, such Grotto Heaven Elemental Energy was merely a drop in the ocean, having no real usefulness.

But for Chen Guan, who was just at Second Awakening, this Grotto Heaven Elemental Energy was indeed a great source of replenishment.

When others came here, they were already at the peak of Third Awakening, merely a step away from entering the Grotto Heaven, making the need to absorb energy unnecessary.

Chen Guan was the first to come here without reaching the peak of Second Awakening.

Yang Hu, Fu Tianji, and Zhang Chunxiang were at least at the peak of Second Awakening; before Third Awakening, energy was useless to them too.

Chen Guan operated the Secret Technique of One, crazily absorbing the Grotto Heaven Elemental Energy here, whose effect was only second to the Blood Lingzhi given to him by the Zhi Xian patriarch, much stronger than ordinary elixirs.

"This feels amazing..." Chen Guan finally felt the rapid growth of Primordial Energy again.

If not worried about that thing being taken by Fu Tianji and his group, Chen Guan would've loved to stay here and cultivate continuously, quickly raising his level.

There was only one mountain here, shrouded in mist, and after pondering briefly, Chen Guan thought that thing was highly likely to be on this mountain.

Because Zhang Chunxiang was in their hands, Chen Guan feared they would use her to threaten him if discovered, hence didn't summon the Ghost-Eyed Python as a mount and carefully advanced toward the mountain with Warring States.

"Don't make a sound, let's quietly move up," Chen Guan instructed Warring States who had begun to bark.

Warring States understood Chen Guan's intention and ceased barking, but then bit onto Chen Guan's pants and tugged in a certain direction.

A thought stirred within Chen Guan: "Could Warring States remember the scent of Fu Tianji's group and intends to lead me?"

He quickly followed Warring States, who released its grip and led the way.

After running alongside Warring States for a while, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. Warring States unhesitatingly sprinted up the mountain, further confirming Chen Guan's suspicion.

"Had I known Warring States could track Fu Tianji's group, I wouldn't have troubled Kuang Liu," Chen Guan thought internally.

The mountain wasn't particularly high, but quite peculiar, with a stair-like ascent, peak after peak connected, presenting continuous scenes amid the clouds, revealing bizarre flowers and exotic herbs.

Warring States wound left and right through the mountain for quite some time, eventually stopping midway up.

Covered by clouds, Chen Guan couldn't see the path and had to wade through them, following Warring States.

At this moment, Warring States paused, and Chen Guan brushed his hand, stirring the air and revealing the area to be a stone platform halfway up the mountain.

The stone platform was neither touching the heavens nor the earth, with cliffs in front and sheer rock faces behind, offering no possible path.

"Could there be some mechanism here? Did Fu Tianji's group enter the mountain wall?" Chen Guan scrutinized the cliff but found no mechanism.

While puzzled, he saw Warring States bite something in the mist and happily wag its tail furiously.

Chen Guan was baffled, walked over and cleared the mist to find many mushroom-like fungi resembling Shiitake Mushroom growing on the rock, which Warring States immediately started devouring voraciously.

Chen Guan instantly felt exasperated, realizing he had been quite mistaken before. What he thought was Warring States leading him to find Fu Tianji was actually leading him to find food.

"Damn it, you glutton, at a time like this, all you think about is eating," Chen Guan lamented but was also helpless.

With a change of thought, however, he found something seemed amiss.

This thing growing on an Immortal Mountain, how did Warring States know it was here?

Furthermore, Warring States spent its life by Chen Guan's side, and he himself had never seen such fungi, nor knew how it could find them.

Even if its nose was extremely sensitive, it needed to first know it existed before seeking it out.

"Unless Warring States had tasted this thing before; yet I don't recall it ever eating such fungi. Could it be when Yang Hu taught it the tiger's way, he fed it such fungi?" Chen Guan couldn't help but examine the fungi closely.

They looked like Shiitake Mushrooms but were snow-white in color. However, they were transparent, filled with white mist, making them appear as snow-white.

Having devoured several mushrooms, Warring States lay motionless on the ground while white smoke emitted from its body.

Chen Guan was astonished to realize the white smoke was actually Primordial Energy emanating out.

"Are these Shiitake Mushrooms this nourishing?" Chen Guan was astounded and swiftly picked one to eat himself.

Upon entering his mouth, the Shiitake Mushroom instantly turned into Primordial Energy flowing into his belly; Chen Guan felt as if he was directly consuming energy.

"This is incredible!" At that moment, Chen Guan felt like he was about to ascend to immortality, as energy filled his entire body, trying to escape through thousands of pores as though lifting him upwards.

Chen Guan promptly operated the Secret Technique of One, refining and absorbing the energy within.

"I'm going to thrive... This time, I'm really going to soar..." Chen Guan ate one Shiitake Mushroom and felt he was on the verge of leveling up.

There were plenty of Shiitake Mushrooms here; if he gathered them to take back, would he fear ever struggling to level up?

These Shiitake Mushrooms were Heavenly and Earthly Treasures formed by condensed Grotto Heaven Elemental Energy, consuming them was akin to directly ingesting high-quality Solid State Elemental Energy.

Chen Guan brushed away the mist and roughly counted; there were many clusters of Shiitake Mushrooms growing on this stone platform, numbering at least two to three hundred.

"With so many treasures, advancing 20 levels should be more than enough, right?" Chen Guan thought, considering how to store the mushrooms after picking one, when its mist started rising and its internal Grotto Heaven Elemental Energy quickly dissipated.

Within moments, the picked Shiitake Mushroom was left with only a thin transparent husk as flimsy as a cicada's wing, with nothing inside, completely devoid of energy.
