Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 130: Chapter 120: Songling Rat, Three-Colored Soil, Double Lottery

A technique was cast into the box.

The restriction was subsequently lifted.

Taking a closer look.

Inside was something wrapped in layers of burlap.

Fu Changsheng grew even more curious.

He unwrapped the outer layers one by one.

What finally appeared was a piece of somewhat familiar parchment.

Unfolding it for a closer look.

Fu Changsheng was momentarily stunned:

”A fragmented map of the Penglai Mountain Ruins?!”

Moreover, this was clearly a replica.

In a flash of understanding.

A thought surged in Fu Changsheng’s mind:

”Could it be that the Penglai Mountain Ruins, which open once every hundred years, are known not only to the Lei Family but also to the Celestial Yang Tribe?”

The Celestial Yang Tribe has three Foundation Establishment cultivators.

This means.

The journey to the ruins a little over a year from now would undoubtedly encounter numerous changes:

”No, I must exchange for intelligence to see the specific situation.”

With that thought:

”Exchange for intelligence!”

Buzz!

The panel trembled.

A surge of yellow light flowed.

Soon, lines of text appeared:

[1: Shortly after you left Taiyun Valley, two Foundation Establishment Elders from the Celestial Yang Tribe and the Cloud Soaring Tribe arrived consecutively. They examined the battle site and concluded it was an invasion by foreign races, worried about the pace of the Great Zhou’s invasion, while also pinning great hopes on the upcoming opening of the Penglai Mountain Ruins!]

This....

Fu Changsheng was shocked upon reading this.

Not just the Celestial Yang Tribe, but even the Cloud Soaring Tribe knew of the ruins.

The Cloud Soaring Tribe, as far as he knew, also has three Foundation Establishment Elders. When the ruins open, the two tribes would each send at least one Foundation Establishment cultivator, in addition to the Foundation Establishment cultivators the Lei Family moved from the Ping Family in Pingshan County.

This means.

At least three Foundation Establishment cultivators would appear at the Penglai Mountain Ruins!

And Miss Hongyu had just reached Foundation Establishment:

”No, it seems I’ll need to find an excuse to persuade Miss Hongyu to have Uncle Feng join in as well.”

During a recent communication with Miss Hongyu.

It was said that after Uncle Feng was promoted to Grand Elder, he obtained a Tier Two Top-Grade Celestial Mulberry Fruit from the clan, which he consumed to successfully break through to Foundation Establishment Peak.

With Uncle Feng leading.

The safety of entering the Penglai Mountain Ruins would be greatly enhanced.

”To persuade Uncle Feng to take action, I need to truthfully inform him about the ruins.”

Fu Changsheng made up his mind to discuss the matter with Miss Hongyu after refining the Cloud Mushroom Fruit in seclusion upon returning from the Eastern Wilderness.

He continued to review the remaining intelligence:

[2: The place in Kuili Mountain where you are heading, containing Three-Colored Soil, is a Natural Illusion Array, filled with Songlin Bamboo and home to many Songling Rats]

Immediately after.

The following eight pieces of intelligence turned out to be trivial.

Fu Changsheng immediately halted the exchange.

At this moment, the clan contribution points on the panel had decreased from one hundred and forty to one hundred and twenty.

Looking at the second piece of intelligence, a glint of excitement flashed in Fu Changsheng’s eyes.

Songlin Bamboo is a Tier One High-Grade wood-attribute spiritual material. Once chopped down, it can be burned into bamboo charcoal for use in alchemy and artifact refining.

The most crucial part is.

The Songling Rat is a Tier One High-Grade demon beast, lacking combat strength, but as a carnivorous ingredient, if prepared by a spirit chef, it becomes a delicious gourmet dish that can enhance the mana of a late-stage Qi Cultivator:

”This trip to Kuili Mountain proves to be worthwhile!”

With the presence of Yu Qingru, a Tier Two Array Master, breaking through the Natural Illusion Array shouldn’t be an issue.

Fu Changsheng took a deep breath, put aside all distracting thoughts, and began swallowing Spirit Pills to restore mana. After a few days, the three of them were rested and ready, so they piloted the Flying Ship towards Kuili Mountain.

After all, it’s the land of the Eastern Wilderness.

To prevent any unexpected occurrences.

Fu Changsheng traveled at the maximum speed, and after ten days, he took out a terrain map, glanced at a barren mountain in the distance, and spoke to Yu Qingru and Granny Yu, who were meditating on the Flying Ship:

”Miss Qingru, Granny Yu, we have arrived.”

A technique was cast onto the Flying Ship.

The Flying Ship began to descend, eventually landing at the foot of the mountain.

Yu Qingru looked at the barren mountain, puzzled, not understanding why Fu Changsheng insisted on coming here, and sensing no Spiritual Qi at all, it didn’t seem like a treasure trove.

But Fu Changsheng was convinced the intelligence was accurate.

He immediately said:

”Miss Qingru, there’s a Natural Illusion Array in the mountain. Please examine it closely.”

A Natural Illusion Array?!

Mentioning what interested Yu Qingru most, arrays, her eyes immediately lit up. With a flick of her storage bag and a flash of dawn light, an Eight Trigrams Array Plate, a probing magical artifact, flew out. As she cast a technique into the array plate, beams of Spirit Light shone from the Eight Trigrams Array Plate.

The Eight Trigrams Array Plate suspended itself above her head.

As she moved forward, she examined from the mountain foot up.

Fu Changsheng turned to Granny Yu and cupped his hands:

”Granny Yu, do you have any formations left at your disposal? I’m afraid that any commotion might draw the attention of the Eastern Wilderness Tribe, which would be troublesome.”

The Illusionary Array in his possession is a small array.

Incapable of concealing the entire mountain.

Of course.

The most critical concern is.

He feared any loud noise might scare away the Songling Rats.

Granny Yu smiled kindly:

”Fellow Daoist Fu, you are indeed thorough in your considerations.”

Ever since that thought crossed her mind, Granny Yu has found Fu Changsheng increasingly agreeable.

With a pat on her storage bag.

Array flags descended from the sky, and as the technique changed, she softly chanted:

”Activate the array!”

Buzz!

A series of dazzling Spirit Lights lit up around the array flags.

A large light shield came down, covering the entire Kuili Mountain.

Approximately a month passed like this.
