Chapter 809: Someone Died
Yi Zheng vigilantly looked in that direction, but saw no source of killing intent.
Jidian patted Yi Zheng on the head: "Don't sleep too deeply at night."
Barks-at-heaven dog transmitted his voice: "What do you mean? Someone else dares to make a move?"
Jidian smiled and looked around: "Who knows? In a big forest, you find all kinds of birds, but that could be a snake!"
...
In the evening, after Peach Branch Immortal, Hundred-Year-Old Immortal and others had a drink with Yi Zheng, Barks-at-heaven dog, and others, they each said their farewells.
There were many caves on the mountaintop, and Mount Tai God had already allocated them in advance, so everyone could go to their assigned cave to rest with their waist plaques.
Yi Zheng's living space was next to Barks-at-heaven dog's, but Jidian's place was slightly farther, roughly a kilometer away.
However, for these Divine Beasts, this distance was not far at all.
Night fell, Yi Zheng sat in the cave, arms crossed, chewing on a leaf and roasting by the campfire, looking outside…
The night view of Mount Tai was beautiful, with countless stars shining bright, even starlight fell directly onto Mount Tai. The starlight and moonlight interwove a gigantic five-colored light wheel at the summit of Mount Tai, which was extremely dazzling.
"They say Kunlun is the home of the gods, but Kunlun doesn't have such sights." Yi Zheng muttered.
Just then, a black shadow flashed past the door.
Yi Zheng's eyebrows raised: "Dead dog, stop pretending! If you can't sleep, come in for a drink!"
Barks-at-heaven dog swaggered in, cursing: "You dead rabbit, how are your eyes so sharp?"
Yi Zheng sneered: "I didn't even see your figure clearly."
"Then how did you know it was me?" Barks-at-heaven dog asked.
Yi Zheng pointed at Barks-at-heaven dog: "Didn't Jidian stew you a few times? You're nearly marinated to taste."
Thinking of his tragic experiences, Barks-at-heaven dog angrily cursed: "That bald guy is just insane..."
Yi Zheng said: "It's midnight and you're not sleeping, why did you come to me?"
Barks-at-heaven dog yawned, lying back like a human, hands behind head, legs crossed: "Couldn't sleep... what about you? Why aren't you sleeping?"
Yi Zheng pointed at the five-colored light outside: "Watching that thing, I don't have that."
Barks-at-heaven dog laughed: "Not only you, but nowhere else in the world has it, only on Mount Tai. You know why?"
Yi Zheng shook his head.
Barks-at-heaven dog said: "That's the projection of the five-colored altar! It's said that in ancient times, every emperor would ascend to Mount Tai for the ceremony of abdication when they proclaimed themselves emperor. Only after the abdication ceremony could an emperor be considered legitimate.
When the emperors performed the ceremony, they used top-tier heaven and earth treasures to construct the five-colored abdication altar on Mount Tai!
But those things went to the heavens with Mount Tai, leaving only this remnant range in the Underground Immortal Realm, but ultimately it's still connected, and the abdication altar has some slight connection here, which is why there's a five-colored light shadow appearing."
Yi Zheng clicked his tongue: "So that's it..."
Just then, Barks-at-heaven dog lowered his voice: "Rabbit, do you know Mount Tai's other name?"
Yi Zheng shook his head, and Barks-at-heaven dog chuckled.
A gust of wind blew into Shandong, the fire flickered unpredictably, and the temperature dropped a few degrees.
Barks-at-heaven dog whispered: "Come here, let me tell you."
Yi Zheng leaned closer, and Barks-at-heaven dog brought his big mouth near Yi Zheng's ear and suddenly opened wide: "Ah!"
"Oh damn!"
Yi Zheng jumped up in fright, and with a backhand, smacked him!
With a slap, Barks-at-heaven dog spun a circle on the spot.
Barks-at-heaven dog cursed angrily: "Dead rabbit, your hand is too harsh! I was just joking! Damn, my teeth are loose and leaking cold air now..."
Yi Zheng wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead, cursing: "Dead dog, can you choose the right occasion to joke?"
Barks-at-heaven dog complained: "What occasion? Only you believe that crazy bald guy's words.
I don't believe it, on Mount Tai God's territory, Mount Tai God said no killing, how could anyone dare to act recklessly!
Nine Yin God, that little pretty face might be arrogant, but deep down he's still a mama's boy!
I don't believe he'd dare make a move!"
Yi Zheng couldn't bother with his tantrum, lying down on the ground: "If you have nothing better to do, go to sleep quickly!"
Barks-at-heaven dog waved his paw: "Sleeping, sleeping, you should sleep too. Don't wet the bed tonight..."
"Get lost!"
Yi Zheng cursed loudly, and Barks-at-heaven dog wagged his tail and left.
Yi Zheng crossed his arms again, chewing on a leaf as he watched the door, muttering: "Hmm... still not at ease!"
Then Yi Zheng began to retrieve items from his bosom. From the mass of spoils he'd obtained, he quickly found a large number of formation devices, although the levels of these formations weren't high, they had the advantage of being plentiful.
Yi Zheng took out all two hundred formation flags, array maps, treasure beads and other things, setting them up at the cave entrance and around.
After sorting them all out, it was already midnight.
Yi Zheng pulled out a big bed, yawned and was about to sleep when he heard a scream!
"Ah!"
Yi Zheng shot up from the bed, staring outside, the cold wind blew but everything was deadly silent, no movements.
Just then, another scream echoed!
"Ah!"
Yi Zheng stood inside the cave, secretly peeking out, only to see a black dog head peeking too.
The two guys exchanged a look, both seeing the heaviness in each other's eyes: "Something happened!"
Then a ball of flame flew to the sky, instantly lighting up the Heaven Dome!
Then, one flame after another soared into the sky, lighting up the entire Mount Tai like daytime.
Voices rose too, figures flew up, discussing something.
Yi Zheng knew, it was safe now, so he walked out with Barks-at-heaven dog.
"Brother, what's the situation?" Barks-at-heaven dog casually asked a bird-headed and human-bodied Divine Beast.
The other shook his head: "Don't know, just came out after hearing the scream."
Yi Zheng leaned in next to the flamboyant Peach Branch Immortal asking: "What's the situation?"
Peach Branch Immortal looked serious: "Hundred-Year-Old Immortal is dead!"
"What?!" Yi Zheng was stunned, Hundred-Year-Old Immortal was just drinking with them in the evening, who would think that overnight, he'd end up like this!
Upon hearing this, Barks-at-heaven dog got furious: "Damn, it must be the Nine Yin God's gang, those sneaky sissy bastards who struck!"
"Dead dog! Don't slander!" Catfish God cursed from afar.
Barks-at-heaven dog swung his arm: "Slander? If I could, I'd curse you to death! Damn, you saw Hundred-Year-Old Immortal close to us and made a move, right?"
"Bullshit! If we were to kill, we'd kill you, the dog thing, why would we kill a Hundred-Year-Old Immortal?" Another Divine Beast cursed.
Barks-at-heaven dog directly cursed back, and the two sides started a chaotic argument on the spot.
But Yi Zheng ignored the arguing sides, instead, he lowered himself, and walked to the cave of Hundred-Year-Old Immortal.
At this moment, Nine Yin God, Jidian, a Azure Lion, and several Divine Beasts with strength reaching level sixteen or seventeen were standing here, their expressions were also very serious.
Nine Yin God said: "Killed with one strike! The one who made a move has not weak power!"
