Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 806 - 408: Journey to the West Is Just Like This_2

After that, the journey continued in silence for a while until Brother Monkey stopped.

"We have arrived."

Exiting through a small cave of the same size as the one they entered, Zhang Ze found himself at the edge of a cliff, with the boundless blue sea coming into view.

Standing at the edge, he gazed at the rolling waves and the swirling undercurrents of the blue sea. Turning back, the clouds formed an endless mountain range, rising and falling.

Only this place remains peacefully.

Zhang Ze thought to himself, this must be that rare habitable place in the legendary Chang State.

But looking at this scenery, have they really crossed half of Chang State in just that little while?

The Mother Tree is quite amazing.

Li, however, wasn't thinking much about it. Jumping down from Zhang Ze's shoulders, it ran around in circles, seemingly searching for something. After coming up empty, it looked at Brother Monkey and asked.

"Where is your home? Can I see the house made of Jade Coral and the wind chimes made of Flood Dragon Bone?"

Brother Monkey, "What are those things?"

Li, "?"

Seeing Brother Monkey's confusion, Li quickly took out a hardcover edition of "Chang State Travel" with no ads, flipped to the first few pages, and pointed to show Brother Monkey.

Brother Monkey frowned and said, "Who wrote this? It's all nonsense. You've seen the coral here; most of it weaves webs to hunt. Using their bodies to build houses would only provoke their retaliation—how could anyone live like that?

"As for this, he's probably talking about the Black Flood Dragon Fish, but this fish is rarely seen even in a hundred years. Anyone who catches one would surely sell it for a fortune and then move away from this place.

"Who in their right mind would kill such a treasure and make it into a bone bell, hanging it at their door to listen to at night?

"Oh, by the way, 300 miles north of here, there's an old man from the outside who's been fishing for Black Shark for thirty years without success. He's stubbornly stayed there, like a statue, unmoving. If he knew someone had done such a thing, he'd certainly eat them alive."

Brother Monkey's words left Li frozen, and it quickly flipped further in the book, showing Brother Monkey page by page.

"What about this? Chang State has many Floating Mountains hanging upside down in the air, with Realm Abyss Mountain being the most mysterious. Three thousand Profound Nether Cold Iron chains hang down the mountain..."

Brother Monkey had a reminiscent look, "Iron chains, there used to be some, but they haven't been around for a long time, and they were never Profound Nether Cold Iron.

"An old man from outside hung them there. He wanted to establish a sect on that Floating Mountain, but he couldn't control it no matter what he tried. He eventually ran away, leaving a bunch of chains and other things behind.

"A long time after that, when that old man never returned, people nearby dismantled those chains and melted them down. My iron staff is made from that chain iron.

"Also, that Floating Mountain isn't called Realm Abyss Mountain; we all call it Oyster Mountain."

Brother Monkey showcased his iron staff as he spoke.

Li, "Then this..."

Li continued pointing things out one by one, while Brother Monkey, a true local, refuted them one by one.

"Blowing hot air..."

"This one's true, but it's not worth much..."

"If he sells it to me, no matter how many he has at that price, I'll buy them all..."

Half the book is true, and the other half is not. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Li, "..."

Li was determined that upon returning, it must take a strong stand and rectify the Thousand Mechanism Bookstore!

It's full of bugs!

...

Brother Monkey doesn't live in a coral house; he lives in the Water Curtain Cave.

Following the cliff downwards and passing through a waterfall, they entered Brother Monkey's dwelling.

The cave was spacious, with grass swaying like fox tails planted on both sides of the entrance. The green fox tails absorbed the mist splashed by the flowing waterfall outside.

The cave was divided into three sections: front, middle, and back, with an internal structure resembling sugar-coated hawthorns, separated by light purple vine curtains, so after entering the second chamber, there was no longer any sense of coldness.

"Please sit." Brother Monkey poured hot tea for Zhang Ze and his Steel Egg swallowing earth pangolin.

Zhang Ze, being a stone monster at the moment, couldn't drink the tea, so it all went to Li.

The tea filled the air with a strange aroma, having a refreshing effect.

Li gulped down a pot like a cow, then turned its attention to the row of wooden shelves in the corner of the cave chamber.

On the shelves were dozens of sheets of pale purple crystal membranes, drying and sparkling with rainbow light in the dimly lit cave chamber, eerily beautiful.

"What is this?" Li asked while holding a teacup.

"Chang State Deer's placenta, Crystal River Vehicle. The tea you drank is made from Crystal River Vehicle powder," Brother Monkey replied.

"Poof."

The tea Li hadn't swallowed sprayed out of its mouth.

"So many... Did you kill that many deer?" Looking at the wall-full of placentas, Li asked in shock.

"No way, I just reached Foundation Establishment. The Chang State Deer all live on the Floating Mountains, you might be able to catch them, but I can't. These are what I exchanged with them."

After saying this, Brother Monkey opened a chest, pulled out a cloak made of some kind of fish skin, and spread it out, showing it was shaped like a paragliding wing.

Brother Monkey, "My grandfather, through some fortuitous encounters, had a chance meeting with the Deer King and received some favors. Because of this, I can talk with those deer a bit, and they don't run away at the sight of me.

"Originally, the Chang State Deer only had single births, but since a few years ago, the instances of multiple births have increased. For two fawns, one placenta is really not enough.

"So I made these things, trading them at a two-for-one rate with those multiple-birth deer mothers."

"The Crystal River Vehicle can be used medicinally. Though it's not a valuable item, the price can be considerable if collected in large amounts," Brother Monkey explained patiently.

After Brother Monkey finished speaking, Zhang Ze suddenly asked, "You actually have something you want from me, don't you?"
