Chapter 52: The Purple Cloud Wings Got Ruined, Entering the Inner Region of the Magic Beast Mountain Range

Chapter 52: The Purple Cloud Wings Got Ruined, Entering the Inner Region of the Magic Beast Mountain Range

As the silent night slowly faded, the morning sun cast its light over the Magic Beast Mountain Range. Deep inside a familiar cave, Wu Tian was occupied with some rather troublesome tasks.

The first thing he did was retrieve the scroll hidden inside the skeletal remains. Upon inspection, he found that its material was the same as the one obtained from Hai Bodong aged parchment, covered in seemingly random markings.

Wu Tian then took out the map fragment he had gotten from Hai Bodong and attempted to piece them together.

Good job… still nothing.

The map was clearly incomplete, and unless he gathered all the pieces, locating the final treasure was impossible.

However, there was one notable detail on this newly acquired fragment a faintly drawn black lotus with thin, eerie black flames flickering over it.

At first glance, it looked somewhat similar to the Green Lotus Core Flame, but their power levels were worlds apart.

Because this black lotus represented none other than

The third ranked Heavenly Flame: the Purifying Demonic Lotus Flame!

This terrifying Heavenly Flame had the ability to purify everything it touched, reducing it to absolute nothingness. Compared to the Green Lotus Core Flame, its destructive potential was far greater.

Unfortunately, with only a partial map, there was no way to find its true location yet.

Not that Wu Tian cared too much.

At the moment, his priority was still the Violet Spirit Crystal hidden in the inner region of the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

After all, Medusa needed it to recover faster.

Helping his wife regain her strength was the top priority!

Destroying the Purple Cloud Wings

After storing away the map fragment, Wu Tian turned his attention to the so called flying technique Purple Cloud Wings.

The moment he saw it, he was disappointed.

The "wings" were hideous.

Made from the Black Flame Purple Cloud Eagle, a lowly fifth rank magical beast, the wings were an absolute eyesore.

"This thing totally ruins my aesthetic."

However

Since he wanted to mess with Xiao Yan in the future, he still decided to cultivate it.

As soon as he started, a weak spiritual consciousness emerged from the scroll.

This was the remnant will of the beast, something meant to test the practitioner.

For ordinary people, this spirit was a brutal challenge. If they couldn't withstand its assault, they would be forced to give up.

But for Wu Tian?

A subconscious flick of his soul BOOM.

Gone.

The so called spiritual test?

Instantly erased.

And just like that

He accidentally destroyed the entire flying technique.

"Oops."

If the creator of this technique were still alive, he'd definitely die from anger.

After all, this was his life's work

He had painstakingly captured a fifth rank magical beast, crafted this one person only flying technique, and left it behind as his final legacy.

But now?

Some random powerhouse had completely ruined it… by accident.

A once extremely rare and valuable flying technique

Had now turned into useless garbage.

Wu Tian blinked at the now completely broken scroll.

"...This really wasn't my fault."

After rolling it up, he casually threw it back into the stone box and locked it.

This was for Xiao Yan.

He could already imagine

When Xiao Yan found this technique in the future, he'd be thrilled.

He'd study it… train with it…

And boom

Absolutely nothing would happen.

"Hah, that'll be fun."

But Wu Tian wasn't done yet.

For extra fun, he left behind two additional surprises in the stone boxes:

A pair of "Divine Guardian" Stinky SocksA bottle of "Guardian Essence" which looked suspiciously like black tea.

After locking everything back up, he hung the keys on the skeleton's fingers.

"Perfect. Just perfect."

But that wasn't all.

In the corner where the treasure had once been, he placed a mere ten gold coins, carefully arranging them to spell out the word 'TWO'.

As the final touch

He engraved a mysterious message along the cave walls, written in a language only Xiao Yan would understand:

yuandaoerlaidechuanyuezhe,tuihunweishi,dunrukongmen,kehuajiezainan.

(To the wandering transmigrator if you wish to avoid disaster, renounce your engagement and enter monkhood!)

To anyone else, this message was absolute nonsense.

But to Xiao Yan?

It would shake him to his core.

Wu Tian even carefully aged the carvings, covering them with a layer of dust to make them look ancient.

"Hah, Xiao Yan's reaction will be priceless."

After finishing up, Wu Tian finally left the cave.

For a moment, he considered setting a few more traps

But in the end, he decided against it.

"I don't want to accidentally kill him… that'd be too boring."

Heading to the Inner Region

With his azure wings, Wu Tian soared towards the inner region of the Magic Beast Mountain Range.

By the time he arrived, the morning sun had fully risen.

He had spent half the night with Xiao Yi Xian, then sent her back, and later messed around with the cave for hours.

And now

It was breakfast time.

Since he had only recently become human, he was still getting used to eating again.

And before he faced the Violet Crystal Winged Lion King, he needed to restore his energy.

Pulling out some prepared food, Wu Tian happily started eating.

He even took a sip of pure, crystal clear spring water.

"Ahh… Refreshing."

But just as he was about to relax and enjoy his meal

"ROOOOAAARRR!!!"

A violent roar suddenly shook the entire mountain range.

The deep, earth shaking sound sent tremors through the ground.

Wu Tian sighed.

"Welp. That's the Violet Crystal Winged Lion King, for sure."

Someone had clearly provoked it.

And before Wu Tian could even get up to take a look

BOOM!

A massive explosion of energy shook the area, sending shockwaves crashing through the mountains.

Wu Tian's eyelid twitched.

"...Don't tell me."

He sighed, rubbing his temples.

"Did I seriously arrive just in time… for the start of the chaos?"
