As Mu Chen slowly landed from above the Lake of Treasures, Nine Nether, Ink Blade, and the rest darted over. They were baffled by the sudden change in Mu Chen and the blood stain in between his brows.
“Brother Mu, did you find anything?” Han Shan asked, feeling embarrassed. He was the one who had told them confidently there were leads about the Undying Bird in the Myriad Beasts Tomb, but for the past ten days, Mu Chen had been exploring around and could not find anything.
Mu Chen nodded gently and smiled. They were excited by his reaction, as this was the first time over the past ten days that they saw him nodding. Mu Chen did not keep anything from them and told them about the mysterious place and the Phoenix Clan.
“The Phoenix Clan is here as well.” Nine Nether was shocked and said with a frown, “These people are very picky, and only extraordinary things can make them so anxious.”
At this point, Nine Nether’s eyes glittered. The Primordial Undying Bird was considered to be part of the Phoenix Clan, but it was more uncommon than its real phoenix. They would definitely act immediately if they had heard about leads on the Undying Bird. If they could get a hold of the Blood Essence of the Undying Bird, they would be able to evolve and enhance their bloodline.
However, things would become tricky once the Phoenix Clan was involved. They would not let others have a share, given their arrogance. They were tougher to deal with compared to the Sirius Clan and Golden Lion Clan.
“If the Phoenix Clan is going to the place Brother Mu has discovered, that must be a special place,” Han Shan said. At that point, he suddenly stopped. He seemed to recall something and said, “We do have some other information…”
“Oh?” Mu Chen was shocked and looked at Han Shan. What is it that he knows and did not tell us?
When Han Shan saw Mu Chen’s look, he quickly shook his head and said, “I don’t mean to hide anything from you. During the past few days when you were cultivating, I sent my men out on reconnaissance. Although they did not find any leads on the Undying Bird, they have other discoveries.”
“Other discoveries?”
“Within ten days, there was a sudden increase in the number of groups that have entered Myriad Beasts Tomb. Many of them were from the Supreme Divine Beasts’ clans,” Han Shan said, looking serious.
“There was the Giant Bird Clan… Nine Hues Peacock Clan… Divine Crane Clan… Heaven Piercing Ape Clan…”
Mu Chen would raise his brows every time Han Shan mentioned a clan. These clans were well-known in the Great Thousand World and were well established. These were the Supreme Divine Beasts’ clans, and they had a long history.
Mu Chen was initially shocked, but soon, he became very serious. If only one or two Supreme Divine Beasts’ clans had entered the Myriad Beasts Tomb, it would be a coincidence. However, if so many of them appeared at the same time, there must be a reason.
“There must be something in the Myriad Beasts Tomb that has attracted them,” Ink Blade said, hitting the nail on the head. The Divine Beasts’ clans would not have risked their lives and entered such a dangerous place if it were not so.
Nine Nether nodded, and suddenly, she looked at Mu Chen. Mu Chen realized it as well, and he squinted and said, “Could they be going to the mysterious place?”
Although they did not know what was in the mysterious place, if it could draw the Phoenix Clan to it, it must be something extraordinary. The other Supreme Divine Beasts’ clans would naturally be drawn to it as well.
Han Shan nodded and agreed that it must have been so.
“What do you plan to do?” Ink Blade asked, looking at Mu Chen.
Nine Nether turned to look at Mu Chen as well. Along the way, Mu Chen had won the confidence of his companions, and he had unknowingly replaced Nine Nether as the decision maker for their team.
Mu Chen was silent for a while. Although he did not know what was in the mysterious place, from the look of it, it must be more dangerous than where they were now. Moreover, since the Supreme Divine Beasts’ clans were heading toward the same place, they would get into a vicious fight once they started to vie with one another. Those who were less powerful would then be completely wiped out.
