Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

The journey ahead was not so peaceful, but Jiang Xinxin had prepared in advance, so when she encountered the blinded people, she could pass smoothly by relying on her spiritual sense without any rhinoceros horn incense. There were indeed many corpses hidden in the gold and silver treasures in the two mountains. Zhang Jiuri just took a closer look to make sure that no one had done anything to the treasures, and just picked out two pearl necklaces.

"With such a mountain of treasure, I wonder how the King of Dongxia extorted the people's wealth back then."

"These pearls include not only Eastern pearls, but also many Southern pearls!"

Jiang Xinxin didn't care about pearls or not. The pearls she made in her spare time in her space were larger than the two mountains of gold and silver treasures in front of her. Pearls the size of Zhang Jiuri's little finger in his hand were valuable even now, but they were nothing compared to the various egg-sized beads in her space.

Seeing that Jiang Xinxin was not moved by the two mountains of gold and silver in front of her, Zhang Jiuri directly raised two thumbs up: "That's the style of our Zhang family!"

"For us Zhang family, even weapons are much better than gold, silver, and jewelry. Who knew that the King of Dongxia only liked these useless things?"

This was too obvious. Jiang Xinxin said unhappily, "If you don't care about these useless gold and silver treasures, then hurry up and leave. Don't forget that we are here to find out if there are any traces of the little ghosts in Yunding Palace."

Zhang Jiuri chuckled. Ever since he followed Jiang Xinxin out, he has gradually regained his former lively appearance. Now, even though he hasn't found the clan leader he's been thinking about all the time, how could he still show any sign of depression as before?

He even thought of leaving the symbol of their Scorpion Squad behind along the way.

After walking a little further, there was another cliff connected to the chain. Zhang Jiuri drew out his sword without waiting for Jiang Xinxin to say anything, "Xinxin, you have to take a good look at my new skills!"

Zhang Jiuri put down the backpack on his back and flew onto the chain as thick as a bowl with a tiptoe. He deliberately stepped on the chain hard to make it make a sound to attract the attention of the human-faced birds and human-faced monkeys on the cliff. Jiang Xinxin held up the pearl to help him light the way, and watched him fly up and down on the chain and kill the human-faced birds.

This wave of revenge by the human-faced birds and monkeys still did not work. Zhang Jiuri's power had greatly improved and he alone killed most of the human-faced birds and monkeys. In the end, they could only retreat unwillingly and return to the dark stone wall.

But after all this, King Wannu, who was preparing to pull a coffin like nine dragons, could no longer stay there.

Zhang Jiuri used the light of the pearl to see the nine dragons pulling the coffin below. He almost lost his footing and fell down.

"Xinxin, come and see, there are nine dragons pulling the coffin underneath!"

Jiang Xinxin threw the backpack into Zhang Jiuri's arms, then stood on the chain and looked down. She didn't know where the light came from, but it was pitch black underneath. The only place with light was a large bronze coffin, and there were indeed nine giant bronze dragons around the coffin.

The nine giant dragons had different shapes, but all of them were facing outwards, and the bronze coffin had begun to make dull noises. Jiang Xinxin jumped down directly and landed right on the bronze coffin.

The previous blood and energy were enough to awaken King Wannu who was sleeping in the bronze coffin. Jiang Xinxin deliberately released her own vitality. King Wannu was so excited that he wanted to break out of the coffin immediately, but it depended on whether Jiang Xinxin agreed.

When Zhang Jiuri came down, he only borrowed strength once. In fact, he didn't need to borrow strength, but it was for insurance. When he came down, he heard Jiang Xinxin muttering: "Could it be that the King of Ten Thousand Slaves is still a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong?"

Zhang Jiuri almost choked on his own saliva, "You stepped on him and covered him up, so he can't get out——"

As soon as Jiang Xinxin relaxed her feet a little, the King Wannu inside couldn't wait to lift up the lid of the coffin. Jiang Xinxin stepped back and Zhang Jiuri stepped forward to attract the King Wannu's attention.

After the King of Ten Thousand Slaves came out of the coffin, the two discovered that his upper body was more than three times the size of an ordinary person, and his body was strong. He did not have a muscular body, but his every move was extremely powerful.

However, below the lower abdomen were not legs, but half of the body of a centipede. Dozens of pairs of gastropods made King Wannu look very disgusting. As soon as Jiang Xinxin landed on the ground, she turned her head away and dared not look at it easily, for fear of being nauseated.

The King of Ten Thousand Slaves was of rather large stature, but his movements were quite agile, and he looked as if he was as strong as an iron wall. Zhang Jiuri's sword only left a shallow mark on him, so it didn't matter if he angered him this time.

"Xinxin, be careful, he's a tough guy!"

Jiang Xinxin thanked Zhang Jiuri for his reminder. Seeing that he and King Wannu were fighting back and forth, Jiang Xinxin simply stepped aside to help scout the enemy. He was not in a hurry to kill King Wannu. He also said to Zhang Jiuri, "His life will fall into my hands sooner or later. Now is a good opportunity. You should experience what you have gained in the past few days and try to understand it as soon as possible."

As a result, Zhang Jiuri was no longer in a hurry. He forced himself into a desperate situation again and again and then staged a Jedi counterattack, which made King Wannu lose his mind and he quickly fled with his seriously injured body.

Zhang Jiuri was a little exhausted, but his eyes became clearer and more determined. He took a stance and saw King Wannu make a feint and turn to flee, but he slipped and almost fell out.

"He's boring now—"

Zhang Jiuri didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he picked up the backpack on the ground and followed him. Jiang Xinxin also found it funny, but was very curious about where the King of Ten Thousand Slaves was going. "Maybe this old guy is going to the Bronze Gate. This saves us the trouble of looking for him everywhere."

The King of Ten Thousand Slaves really had his own way to the Bronze Gate. Zhang Jiuri and Jiang Xinxin followed him. They climbed up for a long time, and suddenly they felt a bright light in front of them. Zhang Jiuri hurriedly said, "Don't come up yet. We have been underground for too long. It is easy to hurt our eyes if we rashly go up to the snow."

Jiang Xinxin quickly took out her sunglasses and motioned Zhang Jiuri to put them on. The sunglasses they had prepared when they entered the mountain had disappeared.

With sunglasses, Zhang Jiuri was no longer afraid of the glare of sunlight reflected from the snow. He quickly crawled out from the ground and pulled Jiang Xinxin out with him. He saw that under the thick snow all around, there was only a flat area like a passage in front of him, with the footprints of King Wannu left on it, but King Wannu himself had disappeared.

After walking about a kilometer along the footprints, a bronze door embedded in the stone wall suddenly appeared in front of them. The door was very tall and had many fine patterns on it. Zhang Jiuri excitedly touched it up and down, and when he touched a slightly concave place, he said, "This is where the key is. It looks like this key is easy to copy, but from what I know about the Zhang family, it's definitely not that simple."

Jiang Xinxin only took a glance and said, "The most important thing about this key is not the pattern on it, but the material used to carve it."
