The people continued to wait in the mountain.
They dared not take on the golden snarler directly in case other people took advantage of them.
More and more people came. They did not charge forward when they saw everyone else waiting.
Tang Hao was starting to feel bored.
All the beasts were dead, so there was nothing else to do. The people stood there and stared at each other.
In the evening, the people saw a streak of red light in the sky. When they looked closer, they saw a scarlet bird with feathers as bright as a burning flame.
Another figure rode on the back of the bird.
“Another person is coming!”
Everyone looked up at it curiously.
“Damn! It’s not a person, it’s a monkey!”
After seeing clearly, the crowd was in an uproar.
“It’s a raksha!”
Everyone was surprised and curious at the same time. Rakshas were a rare sight in the Ninth Continent, and they were virtually unseen in the borderlands. Many people had only heard of them from rumors.
“A raksha? Why would it appear here?”
The three people from the Ye Kingdom were also somewhat puzzled.
Tang Hao, on the other hand, was greatly intrigued. He knew about animals and monsters who attained qi cores, but he had never seen one who had turned into a raksha.
At that moment, he lifted his head to take a closer look.
The monkey on the back of the bird was no different than an adult man, except that it had the face of a monkey. Its vicious face was somewhat ugly.
He rode the bird and charged into the depths of the mountain.
When he flew past the crowd, he glanced at the people mockingly.
“How dare mere humans covet a treasure that belongs to the rakshas? You are overestimating yourself!” He sneered.
“A treasure that belongs to the rakshas?”
The people were shocked when they heard that, but they soon understood. No wonder the animals were so agitated, even the golden snarler.
“Damn, what an arrogant monkey!”
Many people cursed. They were angry that a monkey had mocked them.
Suddenly, a beam of golden light shot out from below and struck the bird.
The bird let out a sorrowful cry and started to fall.
The monkey cried out in alarm and roared angrily, “Why are you stopping me, you stupid snarler? The treasure belongs to the rakshas. I got here first, so it belongs to the Monkey Clan.”
The golden snarler replied by shooting another bolt of golden lightning.
The falling monkey was struck. It yelped, and its fur was charred.
“F*ck you upside down!”
The monkey was furious and roared, “I’ll kill you if you do that again. Wargh! You did it again! I’ll fight you!”
He got to its feet and bared his teeth furiously.
He stomped his foot and pounced toward the golden snarler.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
An intense battle broke out.
“This is our chance!”
The people watched the fight for a while and realized that the monkey had created a distraction for them.
“Charge!”
Everyone roared loudly and surged up the mountain.
They did not care if the treasure was meant for the rakshas. They would want to get their hands on it anyway.
Tang Hao rushed in together with the crowd.
“What… what are you all doing? You humans are too despicable. Get lost!” The monkey was anxious.
No one paid him any attention. Everyone rolled their eyes at him and ran even faster.
“Wargh!” Monkey was hopping mad.
As they rushed forward, they saw a ray of light coming from a crack in the mountain in front of them. They could tell from the color and intensity that it was a treasure light.
“Over there!”
Everyone’s eyes glinted with enthusiasm and greed as they rushed towards the crack.
“Get lost! The treasure is mine!”
“Go to hell!”
The people started to fight as they got closer to the crack. Everyone wanted to be the first to go in.
The Golden Core cultivators were fighting the most intensely. There were about thirty of them fighting each other with their Artifacts.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Shockwaves rippled in all directions as the weapons clashed.
“All of you get lost. The treasure belongs to the Ye Kingdom. I’ll wipe out the entire family of whoever dares to stand in my way!”
The Ye Kingdom’s crown prince shouted brazenly.
The two old men protected him as he rushed into the crack.
“Hah, what a boast! Wipe out my entire family? Even your father doesn’t dare to say that!”
The group of Golden Core cultivators shouted angrily.
As they continued to fight, they entered the crack one after another.
Tang Hao kept dodging the attacks that were directed at him.
He could not fight everyone, and he did not want to waste time. That was why he did not retaliate.
Before he got any closer, Tang Hao glanced to his left and right at the mountain. Suddenly, he realized that the mountain was winding like a snake.
‘No! At this size, it’s more like a dragon!’
Tang Hao chuckled. There would not be such a big snake. Perhaps it was really a dragon.
He was not too bothered by it. Many mountain ranges were long and winding like dragons anyway.
He focused and continued rushing forward. Soon, he squeezed through the cracks.
The tunnel was quite narrow. Treasure light was shining through some cracks. Many people were trying to break down the cave walls.
A few pieces of the wall fell off, and the treasure light became even brighter.
They gasped when they took a closer look.
“Oh my god! This… this is a skeleton!”
Some people cried out in shock.
An immense skeleton was embedded in the cave walls. The treasure light that emanated from the skeleton seemed to exude tremendous pressure. Only a great beast from the primordial past had that characteristic.
“We’re… we’re rich!”
Everyone was ecstatic. They took out all kinds of equipment and were ready to pry a piece out.
They tried their best but could not even pry out a single piece.
“Damn! What’s that thing? How could it be so hard?”
“If only my member were just as hard!”
Everyone was cursing in frustration.
The Golden Core cultivators also turned red with embarrassment. They could not find a weapon sharp enough to cut through the bone.
“Hey, there’s no rush! Let’s go in and take a look first.”
They were embarrassed because so many people were looking at them, and they tried to divert the other people’s attention.
“Right, right. Don’t just stand there. Let’s go in.”
They led the way inside.
After walking for a while, they came to a fork in the road.
They hesitated for a while before heading to the left path.
The road was winding, like a snake.
As Tang Hao walked amid the crowd, the thought suddenly came back to him.
‘Is this really a dragon corpse?’
The thought frightened Tang Hao.
If it were a dragon corpse, it was definitely a true dragon, not like the sea dragon that he and the Taoist masters captured near South Beach. That was a distant descendant with barely any dragon blood.
A moment later, a dazzling ball of golden light suddenly appeared in the darkness in front of them.
“What’s that?”
Everyone cried out in surprise and hastened toward it.
When they got closer and looked carefully, they were stunned.
The scene in front of them was like a dream.
It was a cavern formed by glass-like bones that reflected treasure light.
In the middle of the intersecting bones was a golden bone that emanated the treasure light.
“What… What is that?”
Everyone froze on the spot, caught in a daze.
Even the group of Golden Core masters were baffled. They had never seen something like that before.
“Haha! You ignorant fools, that is a divine bone that belongs to Rainbringer, the ancient dragon. It is a supreme treasure of the rakshas!”
The monkey rushed in while laughing.
