Chapter 29 - ODDITIES

Meanwhile, Gu Feng and Gu Jian were still preparing some dishes inside the modest house building, and they were almost finished.

Gu Jian glanced in all directions trying to find Xu Yuan, but he still couldn't find him, so he finally asked Gu Feng.

"Father, have you seen young master? Looks like he's not home."

"Ah! Earlier the young master went out, he said he wanted to see the evening view. Just search…"

Gu Jian immediately went out of the room to look for Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan and the little girl entered the temple door behind the buddha statue with the weasel girl leading the way.

When Xu Yuan entered the temple, he was slightly amazed by the interior building inside the Buddhist temple.

Unlike what it looked like on the outside, the temple's interior was completely beyond his expectations. There are some ordinary but beautiful artifacts and wall paintings that look very ancient but still clean.

The floor was made of a strange stone that gave off foreign energy that Xu Yuan had never felt before, as if there was something behind the temple's floor. Still, he dismissed his curiosity and immediately followed the weasel girl who walked in front of him.

"This is the place where the Silver Eyed Weasel Empress spends most of her time, some of the paintings here were painted by her and the artifacts are her favorite items," explained the weasel girl while pointing at her index finger in several directions.

Xu Yuan was confused, "A favorite artifact?" he asked.

In a year, to become an Empress' favorite item at least have magical power or energy, but no matter how much she looked at the artifact, she couldn't find any magic or magic in it.

"Yes, the items on display are our Empress' favorite artifacts. Although they may look ordinary, those artifacts were once used as formation chains that could destroy entire continents, and if there was someone who could comprehend formation seals at such a stage, then it would not be who dared to attack her or bully her. But unfortunately, for millions of years no one had been able to understand the mystery behind the formation seal used by our Empress, not even the formation masters from the four continents could solve it, not even activate one. seal any formation," The weasel girl explained in great detail.

He often heard about how great and powerful their ancestor, the Silver Eyed Weasel Empress, was from his mother.

Because of that, all the descendants of the Silver Eyed Weasel became the lord of the divine beasts and ruled over several territories on the four continents for hundreds of thousands of years, during which time human cultivators became more greedy and seized control of the divine beast realms and made their descendants their slaves.

Xu Yuan, who listened to the weasel girl's explanation, was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that such an ordinary-looking item was the Silver Eyed Weasel Empress's favorite item that could destroy four continents at once.

But on the other hand, he was curious, how strong was the Silver Eyed Weasel Empress? She could control the formation seal that even a formation expert couldn't activate one of the formations.

Xu Yuan asked, "How many formation seals are there to be able to activate all of them?"

The weasel girl replied as she looked at Xu Yuan, "All formation seals total 3600 seals, if one can activate one of the thousands of formation seals, then that person is someone who is extremely skilled in formation spells."

"Formation Charm?" Xu Yuan frowned.

He knew about Formation Charm. It was a very rare profession in the entire continent and had extensive knowledge of formation seals.

The reason why a Strength was Formation so rare was that his training methods were beyond human comprehension. Only someone truly genius and persistent could comprehend a single formation spell.

To be able to comprehend a single spell would take decades or even hundreds of years. That was also the reason why a Formation Charm was so rare and feared by many.

There are many formation spells in the cultivator world, one of which is formation spells in the Xu Family's territory.

A Formation Spell was hired to cast formation spells in the Xu Family's territory to prevent a catastrophe from arriving. The fees were extremely high, running into millions of gold coins.

According to what the weasel girl in front of him had explained, he knew that the Silver Eyed Weasel Empress was an extremely skilled Formation Charm, and that was worthy of the praise of many.

In a year, Sage Fei Hu Yu hadn't studied formation spells, so she put aside her previous assumptions for the time being until she found more evidence.

Xu Yuan continued down the temple hall with the weasel girl, Xu Yuan also found more items and wall paintings, but he didn't pay much attention to them.

They walked for 3 hours, and finally, the weasel girl met the exit of the temple passage that connected the two plains differently.

"Uncle Xu, we have arrived. We should be careful here, at the bottom of this abyss there are so many beasts that can eat us alive," The weasel girl said, a little worried about Xu Yuan.

She was afraid that they would encounter a beast at a high stage, nor did she know that Xu Yuan could use his physical strength to defeat a Heavenly Path stage cultivator.

Xu Yuan heard that instead of being scared, he felt happy. Can hunt while he is helping someone, no help the weasel girl, he can hunt and earn some experience points and exchange points.

Fortunately, the system informed him that as long as he killed a 'creature' who could cultivate or had a cultivation level, he would gain experience and exchange points.

Meanwhile, the weasel girl who saw the strange smile of the young man in front of her just furrowed her brows in astonishment. She knew that if someone were in a dangerous situation, they would be scared or at least smile, but Xu Yuan was different. The young man smiled in a way that made the weasel girl scared.

The two of them continued walking. This time, Xu Yuan led the way because he knew the whereabouts of the weasel girl's mother were not far from his position.

The bottom of the gorge has a depth of almost 10 kilometers from the mainland above. Xu Yuan could see that there were several boulders, but with a strange shape, although sunlight could not penetrate the depths of the abyss, he could see anything through his system's vision.

The weasel girl was also slightly amazed, and she was surprised to see that Xu Yuan could easily walk down that very dark road, even beyond the darkness of the night.

The Silver Eyed Weasel had some very special limbs, which would never be encountered in any beast other celestial, especially it is signature silver eyes.

With her silver eyes, the weasel girl can see anything as long as what she sees is not blocked by anything, so seeing a path in the dark, too, the weasel girl can still tell.

However, unlike Xu Yuan, the young man before him was just an ordinary human. Even though Xu Yuan was a talented genius in the realm of cultivation, it was still impossible to see all objects in the darkness of the bottom of the abyss.

Gu Jian was still around looking for Xu Yuan. Still, he didn't meet him at all, in his heart he was starting to worry, even though Xu Yuan was strong enough to protect himself, considering the forest he lived in had so many wild beasts, he was afraid that something didn't he want to happen to his young master.

Gu Jian returned to his house and immediately informed his father, Gu Feng, to look for Xu Yuan's whereabouts.

"Father! Young master… Young master is missing!" He screamed hysterically.

Gu Feng stopped what he was doing and looked straight at his son, and he wasn't sure what he had just heard, "What!? Young master Xu Yuan disappeared? How could that be!?"

Gu Jian shook his head hard, "I don't know father, I was going to look for Young Master Xu outside the house and look into the forest, but I still couldn't find him. I'm afraid something bad will happen to young master Xu!"

'GROARR!!'

Suddenly the sound of a terrible howling beast, the father and son pair glanced at each other with the same thought.

"Isn't that… the Blood Red Wolf's voice? Why did the beast awaken? As far as I know, the Blood Red Wolf will only awaken when it finishes hibernating for 50 years, but now it's not even more than 20 years and the monstrous beast has awakened? How could it be?" Gu Feng muttered with a lot of astonishment and riddle in his heart.

Meanwhile, in the abyss, Xu Yuan and the weasel girl stopped in their tracks after seeing what terrifying beast lay before them.

"Little girl, what beast is in front of us?" Xu Yuan asked quietly, and he was afraid that the beasts in front of him would smell his existence.

The weasel girl replied, "Blood Red Wolf! King of beasts! Why did he wake up from his hibernation after 17 years? What happened?"
