Chapter 182 The Mysterious 7th Peak
Ian and the other five were shocked. "The ancient times can be traced back to at least 100,000 years ago. This..."
At this time, the barrier of the room not far away was removed, the door opened, and a blind madman and a soul state of Makino walked out. Ian and the other four hurriedly greeted them and bowed to them.
Lan Daotian and the others were shocked and hurried to catch up, "Could it be that the two seniors are... Senior Muye and Senior Hounan who were famous throughout the continent more than a hundred years ago?"
Muye nodded calmly. The madman, whose real name was Hou Nan, sneered, "The Lan family is quite law-abiding, otherwise the old man would have driven you off the mountain long ago."
Lan Daotian and several elders said in unison: "We dare not, we dare not!"
Ian said respectfully: "Master, congratulations!"
"Child, you have a heart."
Hou Nan said: "Don't be too happy too soon. If your master wants to recover, he needs you to collect the things he told you, especially the divine bone."
"Yes!"
When the people of the Lan family heard about the divine bone, they looked thoughtful: With these two legendary strongmen in Tianlong Pavilion, the Lan family has more hope. I will tell them the news about the divine bone!
Several people sat down to drink again. Lan Daotian gritted his teeth and said:
"Two seniors, Pavilion Master, I may have some news about the divine bone, but I am not sure yet, and I don't know whether I should tell you or not."
Old Master Hou Nan was still as hot-tempered as ever, "Tell me quickly, is there really a divine bone in this world?"
"There should be. I only took a quick look at it in my ancestor's notes. Although there are only a few words in it, it clearly states that tens of thousands of years ago, a peerless genius named Hua Gaozhuo obtained a set of divine bones..."
Hou Nan couldn't help but ask: "Is it him?"
"Uncle Master, do you know him?"
Makino replied:
"This Hua Gaozhuo is the founder of the Warring States Temple."
"In other words, the divine bone that Master needs might be in the Warring States Temple?"
Lan Daotian, Muye and Hounan nodded.
"Okay, Master, rest assured. I will remember this. I also thank Chief Lan for informing me."
"Child, you can't just move the Warring States Temple. Not to mention that its fighting power is so strong that it can suppress almost all forces, and it is also worshipped with the utmost respect in the entire human world. For tens of thousands of years, the Warring States Temple has saved mankind from danger countless times. If you move it, it will be almost the same as going against all the forces in the world."
Lan Daotian thought about this for a long time before he dared to say it. "Senior Muye is right. This matter needs to be considered carefully!"
"Don't make it sound so nice. The Warring States Temple is just a bunch of sanctimonious guys. Can they save humanity? What a joke. They are just picking up the loose ends."
Ian and the others could tell that there was something behind the madman's words, but they didn't care. They thought to themselves: Didn't Xi Ling steal the ancient dragon bones from the Warring States Temple to cleanse my bones? And if the Warring States Temple had ancient dragon bones, it wouldn't be impossible for it to have another one.
"Don't worry, seniors. I have a clear idea in mind. At least I have a relatively clear goal.
By the way, what Chief Lan just said about the Seventh Peak of Shuanglong Ridge... I think we should do a detailed investigation of the key points without further delay."
Makino nodded, but said with a sad face:
"I agree, but if there really are ancient relics inside, it will definitely cause a huge commotion. We will then be in a very dangerous situation, and Shuanglong Ridge will be exposed to the world!"
This is a very serious problem. Tianlong Pavilion was established not long ago and its foundation is unstable. Exposing it may not cause much danger, because this location is on the border of ancient Shu. At most, they will not be allowed to develop peacefully.
But the problem is that if there are ancient ruins here, given human greed, who would care so much?
We discussed this matter for several days but couldn't come up with a better solution. It was a very unpleasant feeling, sitting in a mountain of treasure without being able to dig for it.
Best, Ian Dao:
"I think we should stop discussing this. These are things that are inherently difficult to achieve. Half a year later, we will also have to go through greater unknown dangers. The laws of nature are unpredictable. Maybe this is our disaster.
If this is not the disaster for the Lan family, then if we can no longer survive after half a year, this relic will have nothing to do with us. We only have half a year anyway, so why not give it a try! "
Hou Nan laughed and said, "Hahahaha, good, well said. I would like to ask, has anyone in the world had a smooth journey in their growth as a powerful person?"
"Boss is right. Chief Lan and Elder Liu should stop worrying..."
For the next period of time, Pei'er brought Baoshu to cooperate with the Lan family to find the entrance to the ruins. The others made a lot of preparations and even spent a large amount of money to purchase a stone formation from ancient Shu.
This rock formation is the core technology of ancient Shu, and is usually used for protection, but its energy consumption is very high, and the minimum energy used is the sixth-order nuclear crystal.
Within half a year, the business in Huanglong City was running at a high speed. During this period, many large families from outside the city also poured in, including some large families from Xinhe City and Ente Main City, all of which established industries. The area and population of Huanglong City tripled again, exceeding one million.
People from the Warring States Temple have only come once so far. They wanted to re-employ Situ Jiamei as the city lord, but Situ Jiazhi declined as he was committed to business. After Gu Neis negotiated with the people from the temple, they decided to pay 1 point of tax to the temple every year, so that they would give up electing the city lord in Huanglong City. Huanglong City would truly become a commercial city.
It doesn't matter to the Temple. It just indirectly makes the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce the city lord instead of the city lord.
Ian really didn't have time to participate in Huanglong City, so everything was left to Gu Neisi and Li Batian to handle, and they were only given one task - to develop steadily first and not allow anyone to contact Shuanglong Ridge.
The number of Tianlong Guards has increased to more than a thousand in half a year. They are responsible for the public security issues in Huanglong City. They are divided into levels from one to five according to their strength and contribution. Now there are only Daisy and Yer at level five.
Tianlongju and the area within 1 km around the mountain to the north became the private property of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce. The city could only develop to the east, south and west.
The training of the newly selected Tianlong Guard reserve team is on the mountain north of Tianlongju.
Within half a year, as the Lan family conducted in-depth explorations on the Seventh Peak of Shuanglong Ridge, they finally found the entry point, but they also encountered a clan of ghosts they had never seen before. Their bodies were invisible and they could devour people's essence, luck, and attack their spirits.
Ian led the 124-member Avengers team to constantly eliminate the ghosts. At the beginning, their numbers were small and their strength was very weak. As the Lan family went deeper underground into the Seventh Peak, the ghosts emerged more and more frequently and their strength became stronger and stronger. If Ian hadn't known that there were ancient ruins underneath, he would have found a way to seal this place long ago.
