Chapter 1346: Enemy's Secret Technique

"Wushan Goddess?" Zu An nearly spat out his water. In his previous world before he transmigrated, there was a famous scenic spot called Wushan Goddess Peak, along with a beautiful legend. "Wushan clouds and rain" had even become a euphemism for intimate activities.

"That's an interesting name." The Second Prince also became animated.

The Green Garden steward continued his explanation: "Besides the stone on the peak resembling a beautiful woman, there's another special phenomenon: the surrounding clouds and mist. They can change on their own, appearing as morning clouds and evening rain."

Everyone stared at the misty aura surrounding the stone, marveling at its wonder, that it could influence the weather within a small area.

"Where is the 'Wushan' in the name?" Princess Soren asked curiously.

The steward shook his head slightly: "That much is unclear. This raw stone has existed for a very long time; the name seemed to come with it when we acquired it. Who named it, or where Wushan is, nobody knows."

The Young Golden Roc King spoke: "I do know of a few mountain ranges within the demon race territory called Wushan, and it seems there are also places called Wushan among humans and in the Southern Border. I just don't know if they are the Wushan referred to in this stone's name."

As one of the Four Great Generals of the demon race, the Young Golden Roc King had led armies in campaigns across north and south, so he was naturally quite familiar with geography. No one doubted his words.

Zu An's heart stirred. He thought that if he ever had the chance, he must visit those places to see if they were the Wushan from his previous life's memories. After so many events, he always felt a subtle, elusive connection between these two worlds.

"What's the price of this raw stone?" Duke Lion quickly asked. Being so miraculous, its contents must be extraordinary.

The steward smiled slightly: "One hundred and fifty thousand Sky-grade primordial stones."

Duke Lion: "..."

Everyone felt a sense of absurdity. They were top figures among the demon race, certainly not associated with poverty on a daily basis. Yet, upon arriving in this 'Immortal Character' room, they realized for the first time just how poor they were.

Lion Min also showed a look of regret, but clearly he was reluctant to leave. He examined the "Wushan Goddess" from all angles. He even had a thought: if he could truly confirm there was something heaven-defying inside, he would buy the stone even if it meant losing everything.

Although one hundred and fifty thousand Sky-grade primordial stones was a large sum, the powerful Lion race could afford it.

Unfortunately, he observed for a long time. One moment he felt the raw stone emanating a mysterious rhythm, as if calling to him; the next, he felt there was nothing inside, and it was entirely an intentional misdirection.

His expression shifted between doubt and conviction, but in the end, he reluctantly gave up. The cost was simply too high; he dared not take the risk.

Next, the group strolled through the garden and encountered many more extraordinary raw stones, each no less impressive than the "Northern Palace Black Tortoise" or "Wushan Goddess" they had just seen.

Unfortunately, their prices were clearly just as exaggerated, so both parties abandoned the idea of touching these 'store treasures'.

Yun Jianyue watched, drooling. She quietly nudged Yan Xuehen: "Ice Stone Woman, this Green Garden is truly a fat sheep. How about we find an opportunity to team up and hit them big?"

Yan Xuehen's expression was cold: "You're injured; such an act would be courting death."

"That's why I'm asking you to come along. If I were at my peak, I could roam the world freely by myself. Would I need to call you?" Yun Jianyue snorted.

"A demoness is a demoness; her first instinct is to steal. How could I collude with you?" Yan Xuehen said with a stern face.

"Such a prude!" Yun Jianyue scoffed. "If I steal it then, would you want to know what's inside?"

"Don't be impulsive. It doesn't matter if you die, but if you implicate Zu An... *cough cough*, and Yu Yanluo and the others, you'd never be forgiven, even by dying ten thousand times." Yan Xuehen was startled.

"I know that although you're talking about Zu An and Yu Yanluo, you're actually worried about me, you just don't want to admit it, right?" Yun Jianyue chuckled, putting an arm around Yan Xuehen's shoulder. This Ice Stone Woman was becoming more human.

Yan Xuehen: "..."

She uncomfortably pushed her hand away. When did this demoness become so self-important?

Yun Jianyue wasn't offended in the slightest: "Fine, if you don't want to go. Sooner or later, I will empty this place of all its raw stones. Then you tell me if you'll come and see what they yield!"

Yan Xuehen hesitated: "I am indeed very curious about what's inside, but your actions are wrong..."

"Hmph, hypocrite." Yun Jianyue scoffed.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Lion Min and Yu Yanluo had formally begun searching for raw stones. Having given up on the idea of touching the store's prized possessions, they moved much faster, darting through the garden, fearing the other party might discover a treasure first.

After all, the raw stones in this garden were astronomically priced. Finding a treasure of sufficient value yet within an affordable price range was still not easy.

Now, the other princes, princesses, and county princesses also became interested, following along and examining. Each secretly employed their unique skills, attempting to be the first to discover treasures within the raw stones.

Unfortunately, these raw stones could block their spiritual senses, rendering their attempts at detection futile.

So, everyone focused their attention on the two parties of the wager, eager to see what methods they would use.

Lion Min's coarse fingers suddenly became very gentle as he lightly tapped the raw stones.

With each tap, the raw stones echoed like musical instruments, producing various sounds: some dull, some crisp, and some even lingering.

"This technique..." The Young Golden Roc King exclaimed, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, Lion Rong said proudly: "When my third brother visited the Qiu family many years ago, his talent was appreciated by the Qiu family ancestor, who gave him some pointers."

Hu Yong was startled: "Is it the Qiu family, the primordial stone aristocratic family of the Armadillo clan?"

Lion Rong glanced at him disdainfully: "Who else could it be? Throughout the entire demon race, if the Qiu family's primordial stone mastery is considered second, no one dares claim first."

Seemingly unable to bear his provocation, Hu Yong snorted: "Not necessarily. The Pangolin clan was superior to the Qiu family back then."

"The Pangolin clan?" Lion Rong sneered. "They dug up ancestral graves of various clans and were already attacked en masse. Since the disappearance of the Pangolin Patriarch hundreds of years ago, this clan has completely vanished. I didn't expect you to be so uninformed."

Hu Yong was furious: "Brat, are you looking for a fight?"

Seeing the two about to clash again, the Green Garden steward and others present quickly intervened to mediate.

Zu An's heart stirred. The Pangolin Patriarch was the corpse he encountered in the Marquis Sui's tomb last time, wasn't he? "Di Tian Sui Chan Wei" was obtained from him, and judging by the situation, even he hadn't fully mastered its contents.

And that fat Taoist priest Wu Liang seems to be a descendant of the Pangolin clan, with incredibly mysterious abilities.

At this moment, the Young Golden Roc King spoke: "That move just now seems to be the Qiu family's ultimate skill, 'Flick Finger Divine Ability'! I didn't expect them to even pass this on to Lion Min."

Lion Min smiled slightly: "The Young Golden Roc King indeed has sharp eyes. I was fortunate enough to be appreciated by the Qiu family ancestor back then and was taught a few moves. It's a pity I didn't learn the three most secret ultimate moves; they are only passed down to direct descendants of the Qiu family."

Although he spoke with regret, a hint of pride unknowingly crept into his tone. After all, he had mastered all the remaining parts of the Flick Finger Divine Ability except for the three most secret moves, making him already more formidable than most Qiu family disciples.

If he didn't have this confidence, how would he dare to challenge Yu Yanluo to a stone gambling match?

He deliberately spoke loudly, ensuring that Yu Yanluo and the others heard him, precisely to disturb her concentration and make it even less likely for her to choose anything good.

At this point, the wager was set, so he wasn't afraid of them backing out. There was no need to hide anything anymore.

To his surprise, Yu Yanluo's expression remained calm, completely unaffected. Instead, she focused intently on observing a raw stone.

She made no movements with her hands, simply observing quietly.

Duke Lion laughed heartily: "Why can't she choose? Do you want Third Brother to help you pick a few more raw stones?"

Zu An snorted: "Learning a move or two from the Qiu family makes you so cocky? What's more, you haven't even mastered it fully. Then do you know what our clan leader used to do among humans?"

Duke Lion frowned: "What did she do?"

Zu An smiled slightly: "She used to be the clan leader of the world's largest jade family among humans. Oh, and by comparison, her status should be a level or two higher than that so-called Qiu family ancestor you mentioned."

"What?!" The hearts of the Lion clan members jolted violently. They had never expected this turn of events and quickly looked towards Yu Yanluo.

Yu Yanluo was deeply focused, seemingly not having heard their words at all. Just then, her beautiful eyes suddenly glowed with a yellow light.

"Medusa's Eyes!" Everyone present's expressions drastically changed. As fellow members of the demon race, they naturally understood the terror of Medusa's Eyes. One by one, they quickly took defensive stances, fearing they might accidentally be completely petrified.

---

Some people died, but not completely...

He took deep breaths of fresh air, his chest heaving.

Confusion, bewilderment, all sorts of emotions surged into his mind.

Where is this?

Then, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, becoming even more bewildered.

A single dorm room?

Even if he had been successfully rescued, he should be in a hospital room now.

And his body... how could it have no injuries at all?

With doubts, Shi Yu's gaze quickly swept across the room, finally settling on a mirror at the head of the bed.

The mirror reflected his current appearance: around seventeen or eighteen years old, very handsome.

His previous self was a handsome young man in his twenties with an extraordinary demeanor, who had been working for some time.

But now, this appearance looked like that of a high school student...

This change left Shi Yu in a daze for a long time.

Please don't tell him the surgery was successful...

His body and appearance had changed; this wasn't a matter of surgery at all, but rather immortal magic.

He had actually turned into a completely different person!

Could it be... that he had transmigrated?

Besides the mirror at the head of the bed, which was clearly placed in a spot with bad feng shui, Shi Yu also found three books nearby.

Shi Yu picked them up and saw the titles, which instantly left him speechless.

"Beginner Breeder's Essential Beast Rearing Manual"

"Post-Natal Care for Pet Beasts"

"Guide to Evaluating Beast-Eared Girls of Different Races"

Shi Yu: ???

The names of the first two books were normal enough, but what's with the last one?

"Cough."

Shi Yu's gaze sharpened, and he reached out, but his arm quickly stiffened.

Just as he was about to open the third book to see what it was, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his brain, and a flood of memories surged forth.
