Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 476: Chapter 235: Breakthrough, Crucial Intelligence, Exotic Treasure (3)

”Who would have thought that there would be a drop of Life Source Water hidden within All-Seeing Mountain?”

Gongsun Wen’s eyes were full of joy.

At the same time, he rejoiced inwardly.

Stealing resources from under the Fu Family’s nose could be considered gaining some prestige for the deceased elders.

He took a deep breath.

With a flick of his wrist,

an ancient fragmented map appeared in his palm.

The markings on the map were blurry and indistinct.

Every clue required him to carefully ponder and identify.

He proceeded along the winding mountain path, occasionally stopping to carefully observe the surrounding terrain, comparing the scene before him with the patterns on the map. The mountain was rugged with bizarrely shaped rocks, some resembling the fossils of ancient beasts, evoking awe.

In front of an apparently ordinary cliff face, Gongsun Wen paused.

His eyes were fixed on a texture on the cliff that bore a significant resemblance to a crucial mark on the map. He crouched down, gently touching the cliff with his hand, feeling the temperature and texture of the stone, his eyes lighting up:

”Found it!”

With a wave of his sleeve, several array flags fell down, and he cautiously set up a Three Talents Mysterious Array around him first.

As the array’s light curtain rose,

he tapped the Spirit Beast Bag for reassurance, and instantly a dusty earth pig appeared in the array. Gongsun Wen threw a few pieces of high-quality demon beast meat to the earth pig and gave some instructions.

His hands formed seals as he muttered incantations.

A stream of Spiritual Power shot from his palm, injecting into the cliff face.

In an instant, the cliff trembled slightly and then slowly opened, revealing a dark cavern entrance.

A humid, ancient-scented draft rushed at him, accompanied by occasional deep roars from within the cave, as if warning intruders.

Gongsun Wen was thrilled rather than frightened:

”Is there a Demon Beast guarding the cave?”

This indicated.

That the Life Source Water truly resided within, possibly accompanied by Spirit Grass.

Gongsun Wen cautiously gripped his treasured sword and carefully stepped into the cavern.

The cavern was dark and damp, with faint phosphorus light flickering on the walls, barely illuminating the surroundings. His steps were light, observing his surroundings alertly with each step.

Suddenly.

A foul wind assaulted his senses.

Looking carefully.

A massive All-Seeing Beast lunged out.

This All-Seeing Beast was enormous, as tall as two people, exuding a powerful aura of Tier Two Early Stage.

Its body seemed composed of countless rocks and trees, eyes glowing viciously as it roared at Gongsun Wen. The sound waves echoed within the cave, causing Gongsun Wen’s ears to buzz.

Gongsun Wen’s heart tightened, but he quickly calmed down.

He was stronger than the All-Seeing Beast.

And he knew he had to defeat the All-Seeing Beast to obtain the Life Source Water. He quickly adjusted his state, mobilized the Spiritual Qi within him, and moved agilely, seeking the beast’s vulnerability.

”Roar!”

The All-Seeing Beast attacked first.

Its massive claw swung fiercely towards Gongsun Wen. He quickly sidestepped, agilely evading to the side, while his sword emitted a Spiritual Sword Qi, slashing at the beast’s leg. The beast’s large body couldn’t dodge in time; its leg was hit, causing a painful howl. Yet this only enraged it further:

”Roar!”

It opened its huge mouth, releasing a powerful sound wave.

Gongsun Wen hurriedly raised a Spiritual Power Shield, the sound wave striking it, echoing with explosive thuds.

Gongsun Wen felt his arms numb.

Cracks sounded.

The shield showed slight fractures.

Gongsun Wen knew he couldn’t remain on the defensive.

His figure moved like lightning, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air. His sword danced, creating dazzling flowers of sword light. These flowers carried immense Spiritual Qi, piercing at the beast’s vital areas. The beast kept striking with its claws to block, but because of the narrow cave and its massive body, it couldn’t reach. Several strikes hit its body, green blood oozing from the wounds.

The tide shifted!

Gradually, Gongsun Wen gained the upper hand.

The All-Seeing Beast also fought desperately, eyes bloodshot, abdomen rolling, clearly preparing to unleash its Demon Pill in combat.

However.

Gongsun Wen wouldn’t let it have its way.

Leaping high,

he roared fiercely.

Channeling all his Spiritual Power into his sword, then slashing madly at the beast’s head.

Sparks flew!

Though the All-Seeing Beast turned aside, Gongsun Wen’s agility prevailed, and the sword struck its neck with a clang.

As mana surged out like a torrent,

there was a loud bang.

The All-Seeing Beast’s head was severed, and its massive body collapsed with a crash, raising a cloud of dust.

Gongsun Wen panted heavily, wiping the blood splatters off his face, chuckling smugly: ”A witless little beast dares to contend with me, courting death.”

After storing his sword in the storage bag,

Gongsun Wen’s gaze heatedly focused on the All-Seeing Beast’s corpse.

This All-Seeing Beast had another name, Multi-Treasure Beast, as it was full of treasures, though handling them with care was crucial as any mistake could waste these valuable materials.

His right hand flipped,

revealing a dagger glinting with cold light.

This dagger was crafted by a master using meteorite iron, exceptionally sharp.

He meticulously cut along the skull’s texture, each slice infused with Spiritual Power to ensure the skull’s integrity. The hard skull was gradually separated under the dagger, which Gongsun Wen gently lifted and placed in a specially crafted jade box. The box was engraved with sealing runes to preserve the skull’s Spiritual Qi.
