CHAPTER 479: CHAPTER 349: THE WRITINGS ON THE SKELETON

A roaring sound rang out, and Chen Minzhi sealed off the entire entrance. The cave was plunged into pitch darkness.

Upon hearing Chen Minzhi’s voice, Ye Lingyue and Aguduo already sensed that something was terribly wrong.

"Chen Minzhi, you beast!"

Aguduo was devastated.

She realized that the earlier disturbance had revealed their whereabouts, and Chen Minzhi had already detected them.

"Hmph, Aguduo, blame yourself for not listening obediently to this young master. Had you willingly become mine, I might have considered taking you as my concubine. Now, die inside there. Seal the entrance, light it on fire, and burn them alive!"

Chen Minzhi was very suspicious. Though he had obtained the Inheritance Power, the unusual behavior of the Purple Micro Alabaster Elephant made him suspect that Aguduo might have returned.

He pretended to leave earlier, but halfway through, he turned back.

At the entrance of the cave, he indeed heard the two women talking.

He secretly ordered his men to blow up the cave entrance and even set the women on fire.

Just one night away from gaining full Inheritance Power, Chen Minzhi would not allow any mishaps at this time.

He had already memorized all of the Beast Taming Inheritance from inside the cave, so he decided to whisk away the root problem by resorting to a poisonous scheme.

Outside the cave, a fire blazed.

The mountain stones were scorching hot, and the air in the cave was running out.

Aguduo gave a bitter laugh.

"My lord, it is I who have dragged you down. Chen Minzhi, even as a ghost, I won’t let you off!"

She regretted trusting others, every step she took was wrong, resulting in such an outcome.

"Aguduo, don’t despair too soon. Having been away for so long, big sister and Jin Wu Old Monster must surely be looking for us." Outside, the fire soared to the sky, and the cave was as lit as daylight. Ye Lingyue squinted her eyes, not letting go of the last trace of clues to break the secret technique.

"My lord, you don’t need to comfort me anymore. This cave has no exits and is hidden well. Even if they come, it will likely be around dawn. We cannot hold out that long, and there’s no record here of any methods to decode the Inheritance Power. After sunrise, Chen Minzhi will become the new inheritor of the Hundred Beasts Sect." Aguduo despaired.

"Wait, Aguduo, look at that skeleton." Just as Aguduo was losing hope, Ye Lingyue noticed that the skeleton of the Hundred Beasts Sect Master, which was quietly resting in a corner of the cave, began to change.

The originally pale skeleton emitted a firefly-like glow, and characters emerged on the bones.

Ye Lingyue and Aguduo looked puzzled; the two women wanted to take a closer look when suddenly another huge sound of collapsing rocks echoed.

The air became thinner, and the oil-fueled fire, along with poisonous smoke, snaked through every corner of the cave.

The narrow cave was about to collapse in the fire.

"Aguduo, grab the skeleton."

With no time to lose, Ye Lingyue instinctively told Aguduo to grab the skeleton, and her Divine Sense activated.

The flames, the poison smoke, and the collapsing cave receded like a tide, rapidly withdrawing.

When Aguduo regained her senses, she found herself amidst the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers.

"Could this be the Immortal Realm?" Aguduo stood dumbfounded, she thought she was surely going to die this time.

She initially thought that the Ancient Forest was the most beautiful place on the mainland, but the scenery in front of her made the Ancient Forest seem like nothing in comparison.

Colorful lakes, various exotic flowers and plants, all kinds of fruits hanging heavily on the branches, and bees and butterflies flying by.

Milk-white mist, like a beauty’s veil, blowing gently with the wind, wafting around, and two exquisitely maintained thatched cottages quietly situated there, truly a heavenly place on earth.

"This is Hong Meng Heaven, and also my secret base." Ye Lingyue blinked.

Only two people knew about the existence of Hong Meng Heaven, Ye Lingyue had informed Lai Gu and Aguduo.

Both were people she trusted, but as for what exactly Hong Meng Heaven was or where its entrance was, they would never know.

Ye Lingyue didn’t elaborate further because even she herself didn’t know what Hong Meng Heaven really was all about.

"Chen Minzhi and his people won’t be leaving any time soon. We’ll hide here in Hong Meng Heaven for now, and after daybreak, I’ll have Little Zhiyo notify Jin Wu Old Monster to come and save us," said Ye Lingyue as she and Aguduo hastily laid down the corpse of the Hundred Beasts Sect.

Once the corpse was burned, the text inside the bones all emerged.

Piecing those texts together, Aguduo’s eyes lit up.

"We’ve got it, my lord. It turns out that this Sect Hierarch of the Hundred Beasts Sect was also betrayed by a disciple years ago. After exacting his vengeance on that disciple, he was gravely injured and not long for this world. To prevent similar incidents, he used a special Bone Inscription Technique before he died, inscribing the method to decipher the secret techniques in his skeleton."

Aguduo was both shocked and elated. She had been despondent today, but unexpectedly, things had taken a turn for the better.

Aguduo immediately began to comprehend the Reverse Inheritance Method.

Outside the cave, seeing the fierce fire and thick smoke engulf the entire cave, Chen Minzhi’s handsome face revealed a cold smirk.

"Second Young Master, with the fire this fierce, the people inside are definitely dead. You should head back and rest early."

A few guards of the Kaijiang Prince Manor said.

Chen Minzhi glanced at the fire. He had already thoroughly scouted that cave and was certain there was no secret passage. Aguduo and her accomplice were undoubtedly doomed, and his focus should now be on the secret technique.

Before returning to the camp, Chen Minzhi had specifically gone to check the location of the secret technique once again, ensuring that everything was foolproof before heading back to the camp.

What Chen Minzhi didn’t know was that shortly after he left the location of the secret technique, a round and adorable Little Cute Dog scurried into the nearby bushes, wearing a mischievous grin.

Just around dawn, Aguduo had fully understood the Reverse Inheritance Method, and Ye Lingyue had also received some good news.

After several days of searching, Little Wuya and Little Zhiyo finally found the place where Chen Minzhi had set up the secret technique.

Chen Minzhi was as cautious as possible, having placed the secret location right inside the nest of the Purple Micro Alabaster Elephant.

"It’s time to make a big move. This time, we will definitely make everyone in the Kaijiang Prince Manor fall on their backs," Ye Lingyue grinned mischievously before leaving Hong Meng Heaven.

Around early morning, the Purple Micro Alabaster Elephant raised its long trunk and let out a deafening roar, striding through the Ancient Forest with legs like pillars.

Wherever the Purple Micro Alabaster Elephant passed, the Hundred Beasts crouched down, enhancing Chen Minzhi’s self-esteem even more.

Chen Minzhi sat on the back of the Purple Micro Alabaster Elephant, looking down high above at the vast expanse of the Ancient Forest, feeling like the king of the forest.
