Rebirth of the Urban Immortal Cultivator

CHAPTER 67

The mountain range extended out for miles and was connected to the foothill of another enormous mountain.

The Double Dragon Village was situated at the foothills of the Qi Mountain. The villagers collect and sell herbs and furs and whatever they could find in the mountain forests. The local people had received the news of the guest's arrival ahead of time and therefore, when the fleet got there, the village elder had been waiting for them.

After knowing that they were about to set out on an expedition into the mountain, looking for a spring well, the elder ordered the best huntsman in the village to guide them through the woods.

"You are going to the Yin Dragon Pond?" The old hunter's face paled after hearing where the guests were heading.

"Yes, do you know of that place?" Zheng Anqi's eyes lit up with hope.

"Yes, but It was a forbidden zone" The old hunter shriveled a little and continued. "That area was closed off ever since my grandfather's generation. Nothing grows around that pond, and the water is poisonous.

"But that was not the worst part, did you know there is a monster in the pond?" Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

"Monster?" Sir Jiang Junior snorted. Even the local elder refuted the hunter, "We live in the 21st century, not two hundred years ago. You need to make money for your son's apartment's down payment, don't you? If you change your mind, many other people are willing to take the money."

The old hunter named Zhu looked down hesitantly and was embarrassed.

After a few awkward moments, Mr. Shi finally broke the silence, "Your description is similar to that in my sect's record. I think that is the place."

Hearing Mr. Shi had confirmed the location of the pond, Zheng Anqi decided to move out right away.

Under the lure of the reward, Hunter Zhu finally gave in. He heaved a sigh had then followed the guests.

After lunch, the expedition team started their journey. The team comprised of Zheng Anqi, Sir Jiang Junior and his friends, Hunter Zhu and two of his sons, and Chen Fan and his companions.

As they walked deeper into the mountain, Master Wu furrowed his brows and said: "Master Chen, something is not right. Why do they still need us even after they have found a guide?"

Both Master Wu and A'Xiu had been initiated as Chen Fan's disciples, and therefore, they started to call Chen Fan, Master Chen.

Chen Fan linked his hands behind his back and walked nimbly on the treacherous mountain path. He said: "She never believed me. My accent is from Jiang Bei, but I had told her that I am from the mountains. She is not stupid."

Master Wu's face flushed red for having grossly underestimated the ability of Miss Zheng.

"They wanted us to travel with them because they don't want us to spread the news of their mission." Chen Fan said readily.

"However, I am still not sure what they are looking for in the Yin Dragon Pond. Mr. Shi was the only cultivator in their group, but he clearly had an affinity with the wood element. Are they going to kill the Yin Snake and use its flesh as medicine for her dying grandfather? No, that doesn't make sense."

He pondered on. Suddenly, he asked as he rubbed his chin: "Could it be that there is some kind of Numinous treasures inside the pond that I am not aware of?

"That does make sense. In places with so much concentration of Qi, more often than not there is a Spirit Medicine or numinous treasures guarded by cryptids. I think that is what Mr. Shi after."
