Chapter 414: Locking Dragon Well!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
Bei Feng looked at the mischievous Cerberus with some headache. Indigestion was comparatively much quieter. Its eyes were shut nonchalantly, and it did not bother to speak at all.
"Alright, go to the side and play."
Bei Feng threw a large bone about three meters long out, causing the two little greedy fellows to be joyful to no end. With a swish of its perky buttocks, the little three-headed dog ran after the bone.
Bei Feng returned to his room and began to sort out the things he'd gained in the last eight years. He took out a unique spatial ring used specially to store spirit herbs.
This spatial ring also had an separate internal space, but its main purpose was to maintain and store living spirit herbs.
There was also a piece of Gold Blaze Metal, a material good enough to be used to craft godly weapons. Unfortunately, Bei Feng did not understand forging, and it was kept in storage.
There was a Mixed Yuan Pearl, a one-time attack item. The explosive might of this thing was comparable to a nuclear missile!
Besides that, there were some other random items. To Bei Feng, these items were not very useful, and were kept in the sealed room.
The next day, Bei Feng took Mystic One and the rest to the Beijing. With him were Mystic One, Bai Xiang, and the Cerberus.
The little fox cried and whined to be taken along, but was ultimately still refused by Bei Feng. After all, the little fox had zero defensive ability.
The moment they landed at the airport, Bei Feng's group drew all the attention from the crowd. This group of people, and especially the little three-headed dog, looked too strange!
A car motorcade was already waiting outside the airport. Bei Feng's group directly boarded the centermost car and left.
Beijing, the heart of China, was exceptionally prosperous and bustling. Every inch of earth here was worth its weight in gold!
Most people would not even be able to earn enough money to afford a one hall, one room apartment in their life.
The motorcade advanced into the heart of the city, and huge buildings occupying large space quickly appeared in the sights of the entire group.
These buildings were not the tall towers that rose up into the sky. Instead, they were extremely exquisite houses that caused one to sigh with amazement.
Trees and flowers could be seen within the manor, achieving serenity within the bustling madness of the city. To be able to own such a large piece of land in the heart of Beijing, one could easily guess the power and authority of its owner even without thinking!
Bei Feng and the rest did not have too much of a reaction. At their level, things like this were no longer impressive enough for them to put in their eyes.
Wealth and material goods were but worldly possessions. Money was nothing but a bunch of paper. As long as they wished, they could easily bring in billions of dollars with ease.
Inside the manor, there were already people waiting to lead Bei Feng's group in.
An old man came forward and greeted them. When he saw Bei Feng, he cupped his fists and laughed. "Haha, Fellow Daoist, I hadn't expected our last farewell to last for three whole years. Your extraordinary demeanor remains as before."
Bei Feng returned the greeting and followed the old man into the side hall. As they walked, he asked, "I wonder what's the matter this time that everyone is being gathered?"
Mystic One and the rest did not follow Bei Feng and remained in the outer hall.
Although Mystic One and the rest had gained quite a bit of fame in the martial circle, their true strength had not been revealed to the public.
Everyone in the outer hall were either exceptional geniuses from numerous large and famous clans, or the leaders of different clans, each one having powerful strength.
The place that Bei Feng was going to was a place where all the Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts gathered. Mystic One and the rest were simply led into the outer hall as the followers of Bei Feng. No one had thought that they all had the battle prowess of Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts as well.
"The reason for this meeting is to discuss the matter of the ancient tomb. We are still lacking a key, but this key is not something that a normal group of experts can obtain by themselves," Duan Yang answered. Towards Bei Feng, he had a debt of gratitude. The later had saved his life during the last joint operation.
"En, so that's what's going on."
Bei Feng nodded and followed Duan Yang into the side court.
There weren't many people in the courtyard, only about 50 to 60 people. Among them, there were 16 people belonging to the Martial Practitioners Control Department!
Out of the 16, 12 were covered in black robes from head to toe. It was impossible to determine their true features, as though they were shrouded in a layer of mist.
One of the 12 Kunlun Devils stepped out and said in a deep voice, "The tenth year deadline is nearing, and there's only less than two years remaining. Although we've determined the exact location of the Qin Emperor's mausoleum, if we cannot open it within these two years, god knows how long it'll take for us to find it again."
'These 12 people are very strong!'
Bei Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the 12 black robed figures. Eight years had passed, and his own cultivation had reached the Fake Dan stage. He'd managed to clear the apertures on his left and right hands, and both his legs. He only needed to open the aperture in his heart, the source of the body's strength, and he would be a body refining Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert!
But with his current strength, he was definitely still able to contend against middle stage Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts. Even late stage Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts might not be a match for him if they did not have a godly weapon!
But even so, Bei Feng still felt a great threat from the auras of the 12 black-robed figures!
An expert from the Form and Will Sect asked, "You're saying that the Qin Emperor mausoleum's position is constantly changing?"
"That's right! The position of the Qin Emperor mausoleum is always moving. Using a large amount of ancient books and records, we spent 200 years analyzing and calculating before we were able to determine the exact location that the mausoleum will appear at in two years time! But from what we calculated, the mausoleum will only stay at that spot for the time it takes for a stalk of incense to burn!"
The voice of a woman from one of the 12 Kunlun Devils sounded out, crisp and ethereal, like a young oriole. By the voice alone, no one could guess that this person has lived for hundreds of years!
"One incense's time is not enough for us to break through the formation outside the Qin Emperor mausoleum at all. Thus, we need a key; a key that can hold the mausoleum in place for two hours!"
An effeminate voice sounded out, causing chills to run down everyone's backs. It was impossible to tell if the speaker was a male or a female.
"What is this so-called key? From the looks of it, you have already found the key, but you can't retrieve it. That's why we've been all been gathered here, right?" An old woman with age spots all over her face said breathlessly while a bright gleam flashed in her eyes. From the way she leaned on her purple walking stick, it looked like she might breathe her last at any moment.
"The so-called key is the Dragon Imprisoning Chains at the bottom of the Locking Dragon Well in Beijing! As long as we obtain it, we can use it to hold the Qin Emperor mausoleum in place for two hours, giving us enough time to undo the formation!" the leader of the Kunlun 12 Devils said decisively.
No one raised any questions, and no one doubted if the Dragon Imprisoning Chains really existed under the Locking Dragon Well.
With regards to the well, all the Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts were clear about its strangeness.
According to rumors, there was a whirlpool under the well, acting as a prison for a dragon.
There had been people who tried pulling the chain out from the bit that came out of the well. But to date, no one had managed to pull it out to its end before. No one knew how long the chain was!
Every generation would have legends about the Locking Dragon Well. Years ago, when the city was invaded by an outside force, the group of people refused to believe the legends and ordered for the chains to be pulled up. In the end, the entire street was filled with chains, and black water began to flood out of the well. Terrified, they aborted the mission and did not dare to pull the chains anymore.
"When are we going to do it?" Qin Wufa followed up.
"Tonight! This is the only chance we'll get this year. If we miss it, we'll have to wait for next year to do it. From tonight, we have half a month's time. These few days will be when the well is dry, and the danger will be lowered greatly."
It was obvious from this point that the 12 Kunlun Devils had prepared very long for the mission in two years' time.
All the Controlled Dan experts present also very quickly came to accept that the Dragon Imprisoning Chains were something they couldn't do without.
The party that was most nervous about all this was naturally the state. All the Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts were now gathered in the capital. If something happened and went out of hand, the damage would be unpredictable.
Worried that some brainless people would come and offend these Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts, a large number of elite soldiers had been sent to guard the area. Firstly, it was to prevent outsiders from approaching the area. Secondly, it was to keep an eye on them.
