Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 727 - 467: The Great Tomb of the Sacred Mountain

Xu Feng's voice was filled with irrepressible excitement, and his small eyes shone with a gleam of light.

For some unknown reason, just the thought of tomb raiding made it difficult to suppress his feelings.

Lee Zhen looked at him with a critical expression and couldn't help but comment: 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"You're acting so mysterious that someone might think you're going to summon a god instead of stealing things."

"Ah, you don't understand!"

Xu Feng carefully put away three ancestral copper coins, showing a face like "you don't know the business,"

"In our line of work, we emphasize 'timing, location, and harmony among people.'

"This Everlasting Sacred Mountain is the land of fortune for Nanfen Ancient Country, its presence way beyond imagination."

"In places like this, forcing your way through is the worst strategy. Only by following its 'qi' and finding the 'door of life,' can you sneak in without alerting the 'ghost spirits'... that is, the owners of this place."

Saying this, he paid no more attention to Lee Zhen and instead took out a more professional magical artifact from his storage bag.

A palm-sized, compass made of unknown bronze.

On this compass were not ordinary direction pointers, but densely packed runes, with a fine golden pointer as thin as a strand of hair, faintly quivering as if sensing something.

"Dragon-seeking compass, activate!"

Xu Feng whispered and injected a bit of Spiritual Power into it.

Instantly, all the runes on the compass lit up, the golden pointer started spinning wildly, eventually pointing to a seemingly ordinary dense forest ahead, with a "buzz" sound.

"Found it, the qi vortex is in that direction!"

Xu Feng lowered his voice, but the light in his eyes was dazzling, "Follow me."

Lin Chen and Lee Zhen exchanged a glance, seeing seriousness in each other's eyes.

Though their capabilities were strong, in such matters, they were definitely outsiders.

Lee Zhen was skeptical, yet respectful within.

As for Lin Chen, he considered that Xu Feng was exceptionally specialized in this field, surpassing them by millennia.

The three immediately set off, with Xu Feng leading the way with the dragon-seeking compass in hand.

The closer they got to the Everlasting Sacred Mountain, the heavier the invisible pressure felt.

This wasn't merely an energy oppression but a heavy feeling rooted deep within this land.

Up ahead was the first line of defense. Though the power of the saintly figures in the outer area wasn't high, they were like forest birds; once alarmed, they would become startled and awaken the entire forest.

Therefore, Xu Feng planned to use his Drilling Mountain Beast to tunnel in.

Xu Feng summoned his Spirit Beast, whispered to it, after which the Drilling Mountain Beast began its work.

At this, Lee Zhen curiously asked, "Even if it can drill underground, it won't work. There are many Information Spirit Beasts here, and surely you'll make noise while digging...

Lin Chen was also perplexed.

Xu Feng couldn't possibly be unaware of this.

Yet, Xu Feng merely laughed, proudly saying,

"That's the unique aspect of my Spirit Beast. It isn't an ordinary Spirit Beast; when it works, it can isolate all information interference..."

"How's that possible?" Lee Zhen didn't believe it.

Lin Chen, too, had never heard of such an extraordinary Skill.

But soon, the Drilling Mountain Beast proved him right; while digging, no sound could be heard outside.

"The famous lineage of tomb raiders indeed." Lee Zhen exclaimed.

"No, it's an archaeological family." Xu Feng seriously corrected.

The tunnel dug by the Drilling Mountain Beast was swift, reaching its end in no time. Lee Zhen then said, "I'll go up and take a look."

In terms of individual strength, Lee Zhen was undoubtedly the strongest.

Should danger arise, he could respond immediately.

After a moment, they heard Lee Zhen's call, and Lin Chen and Xu Feng followed up.

Stepping out, they were in a dense forest.

"It's over; we can't find the direction." Lee Zhen said.

The vision here was extremely limited, and to find the correct direction, they'd need to fly.

But once airborne, they would easily be spotted.

For the Sacred Mountain had rules that even those allowed to enter inside were forbidden from flying.

Xu Feng walked to a colossal ancient tree that required the embrace of three people, stopping in front.

He circled the tree three times, occasionally tapping the trunk with his fingers, sometimes crouching to examine the soil patterns, muttering constantly.

"Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Vermilion Bird in the front, Black Tortoise at the back...Yang of the mountain, Yin of the water, this is the 'Xun' position, the location of the door of life...It must be!"

With a sudden clap, he produced a small porcelain bottle from his chest, shaking out some silver powder that emitted a peculiar fragrance. Carefully, he drew a complex rune on a specific spot on the bark.

"This is the 'Barrier-breaking Powder,' ground from ninety-nine different Spirit Grass containing the Power of Space, a secret beyond our Xu family!" Xu Feng proudly explained, "Used specifically to tackle naturally formed spatial barriers!"

As soon as the words fell, the silver rune seemed to be activated and suddenly illuminated!

The unyielding ancient tree bark rippled like water, forming circles of ripples.

A vortex-like portal, radiating a soft glow, slowly emerged!

"It's done! Quick, get in!"

Xu Feng shouted in a soft voice, ducking in first.

Lin Chen and Lee Zhen followed closely behind.

As they passed through the portal, a sensation of spinning came over them.

The next instant, the scene before them suddenly opened up!

They were already inside the Sacred Mountain!

Unlike the desolation outside, here the ancient trees towered, Spiritual Qi was so abundant it nearly turned into tangible white mist, gently flowing through the forest.

The air was filled with a refreshing medicinal fragrance, and rare Spirit Grass long extinct outside could be seen everywhere.
