Chapter 233: The Divine Power of Teng Nuo

Two chances to summon gods and demons!

One chance to summon a legion of gods and demons!

One chance for a random draw!

One chance for skill inheritance!

Qin Jun couldn't help but marvel at the rich rewards of the mission, indicating that the mission was more difficult than he had imagined. It seemed that the power of the Fate Pavilion was far beyond his imagination.

However, this task had no punishment or time limit, so he didn't feel any pressure.

After receiving the side mission, Qin Jun's mood improved, and he even started humming a tune.

Daji and the others were already used to his unpredictable mood swings. Moreover, this time they had obtained intelligence about a divine beast, so it was normal for him to be happy.

...

The sun set in the west.

Qin Jun and Daji sat at the billiard table, while Xiaoli sat on the bed playing with her own hair. As for Xiong Tianquan, Sha Wujing, and Hong Haier, they were naturally in the adjacent guest room.

"These messages are too scattered, distributed in various places. Could it be that there is more than one divine beast?" Daji furrowed her brows and said, "The Black Dragon Kingdom is so vast. If they follow these messages to search, when will they find it?"

Qin Jun didn't speak, but looked at the map on the table. This map was bought by him at the market and was a national map of the Black Dragon Kingdom.

"Haven't you noticed the timing of these messages?" Qin Jun said, staring at the map.

Daji looked at him in confusion, only to hear him say, "Based on the timing, these messages form the route of the divine beast's advance."

As soon as he said this, Daji quickly looked at the map. With their cultivation reaching their level, they could easily remember things, and after comparing the information and timing in her mind, she also found the breakthrough point mentioned by Qin Jun.

Indeed, they could be connected into a line!

"I didn't expect you to be quite clever!" Daji looked at Qin Jun in amazement, to which Qin Jun just smirked.

It was just a simple deduction!

It's not that I'm smart, it's that you're not careful enough!

Qin Jun sneered inwardly, of course, he didn't dare to say it out loud, facing Daji's teasing.

"The messages stopped a week ago, and in the past, there would be news every day, indicating that the divine beast stopped at the last place it appeared," Qin Jun pointed to the map and said. Following his index finger, the marked location was a mountain range called the Flowing Fire Mountains.

The Flowing Fire Mountains were not far from them, only tens of miles away.

"Shall we head to the Flowing Fire Mountains tomorrow?" Daji asked.

Qin Jun nodded, then got up and put the map and jade slip into his storage ring.

Stretching lazily, Qin Jun grinned at Daji, "Let's go to bed early!"

"No funny business, or else I'll make you regret it!" Daji rolled her eyes and said. This guy deliberately didn't book a separate room for them, so that the three of them could sleep together at night.

"As you wish, my lady," Qin Jun said with a smile, but in his heart, he was already thinking that it might not be the case after the lights were out.

He had already come up with an excuse!

Just say that he couldn't control his hands and feet while sleeping and liked to touch everywhere!

Genius idea!

...

The next morning, Qin Jun and the others got up early.

After leaving the guest room, they met and Hong Haier curiously asked, "Your Highness, why is your face a little swollen?"

Upon being asked, the others finally noticed that Qin Jun's right face was indeed a bit swollen. Qin Jun coughed and forced a smile, "I made a mistake in my practice last night."

"Haha—"

Xiaoli couldn't help but laugh, and Daji also looked at him with amusement.

There was no need to guess that the swelling on Qin Jun's face was caused by Daji.

"This woman doesn't know how to be gentle." Qin Jun grumbled as he stared at Daji.

Daji twirled her hair with her fingers, and with a thousand charms, blinked at Qin Jun, as if her eyes contained a thousand emotions.

Sha Wujing was a taciturn person, and Hong Haier didn't understand male and female matters due to physical limitations. Xiong Tianquan was used to it, so they didn't spend much time on this matter.

The group walked out of the inn and arrived at a deserted alley. Sha Wujing recited the mysterious incantation that Qin Jun couldn't understand, and as soon as he finished, Qin Jun felt dizzy. When he opened his eyes again, he was already on a cloud in the sky.

"Wujing, is this a magical power or a spell?" Qin Jun couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Just a simple teleportation technique," Sha Wujing laughed, causing Qin Jun to lose interest.

Spells were fine, as they could be practiced, but magical powers required comprehension. It would take at least several decades to cultivate a magical power, as no one was as talented as Sun Wukong, who could cause havoc in the heavens after just a dozen or so years of practice.

Sun Wukong, born of a celestial stone, was truly a super genius of unprecedented proportions.

Sometimes, Qin Jun couldn't help but imagine that if this monkey had practiced for a few hundred years, he might have even defeated the Tathagata.

But there were no ifs.

Magical powers required too much time, and Qin Jun also had self-awareness, so he didn't plan to learn from Sha Wujing.

It was better to rely on random draws or skill inheritance. Even the Thirty-Six Transformations of the Heavenly Constellations could be easily comprehended with the help of the system.

With such a big golden finger, he would be a fool not to use it!

The journey continued in silence.

For Sha Wujing's cloud-riding technique, the distance of tens of miles was not far, and they arrived in just a few minutes.

"If only I could draw Sun Wukong's somersault cloud, that would be awesome," Qin Jun sighed as he looked at the Flowing Fire Mountains below. A somersault of ten thousand miles, that was truly a legendary feat!

It had to be said that although Sun Wukong knew few magical powers and had few treasures, each one was top-notch.

"Your Highness, let me scan with my divine sense first!" Sha Wujing said, and with his cultivation at the ninth level of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, his divine sense could easily cover the entire Flowing Fire Mountains.

Qin Jun nodded, and Sha Wujing closed his eyes. No one crowded him, and they all sat on the clouds, waiting.

In the forest below, the roar of monsters could be heard from time to time, and even some demonic birds flew out. However, the senses of the monsters were far stronger than those of the cultivators at the same level, so no demonic birds dared to approach Qin Jun and the others.

Soon, Sha Wujing opened his eyes and frowned, saying, "I didn't feel the presence of anything too powerful. Your Highness, are you sure the divine beast is hidden here?"

He couldn't sense the flow of energy, so even if there really was a divine beast, it would be no different from a monster under his spiritual sense.

The Flowing Fire Mountain Range was so vast, with not just tens of thousands of monsters.

"Let's go down and take a look."

Qin Jun stared down and said, and Sha Wujing nodded, then controlled the mist to descend.

Before long, the group landed on a mountain top, where they could roughly overlook the surrounding forests.

"It seems that we are not the only ones who have guessed the path of the divine beast."

Qin Jun's mouth curled up, and not only he, but the others also sensed the presence of cultivators, and quite a few of them were scattered throughout the forests, as if searching for something.

Roar—

At this moment, a fierce roar came from the northern forest. Qin Jun and the others subconsciously looked over, only to see a huge creature leaping out of the forest. It looked like a lion with red fur, but what was shocking was that it had two heads, and flames were spewing from its mouths.

Standing on top of the double-headed red lion was a mysterious man wearing a raincoat.
