Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System-Chapter 299 - : Er Gouzi, Do It

Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Er Gouzi, Do It

Langya Mountain’s maze was set up to prevent external invasion and was open year-round. However, wouldn’t the people on the mountain still need to communicate with the outside world? Thus, people from the headquarters of the Ancient Martial Arts Association had ways to ascend and descend the mountain.

“Consultant, follow me closely. Step exactly in my footsteps and do not touch anything.”

After some understanding, Fang Jueyu learned that this young man was named Yang Lei, 23 years old. His parents had sent him to an Ancient Martial Sect to learn martial arts since he was young. Because he showed potential, he was kept there.

Later, that sect was destroyed by enemies. After several twists and turns, Yang Lei ended up at the Ancient Martial Arts Association. Although it was an organization akin to a joint committee formed by various families and sects, over the years it had somewhat become a sect itself. Yang Lei was merely an outsider disciple.

As for his treatment, it was truly hard to describe. His annual income barely had anything left after covering his own expenses. He was an Ancient Martial Artist, not a monk or a Taoist priest, needing to marry and have children. Money was certainly something he couldn’t do without.

This time he was practically risking his life for his future. If Consultant Fang failed, leaving Langya Mountain safely was uncertain, and he would likely face the Ancient Martial Arts Association’s severe punishment.

However, if Fang Jueyu succeeded, the Ancient Martial World would officially enter national management. This mystical bureau would become a significant supervisory agency, and being its first “civil servant” would naturally mean a prosperous career for him.

The risk was great, but it was worth a gamble!

Under Yang Lei’s guidance, they traversed the foggy forest, which was filled with poisonous hidden weapons and various traps. Even Fang Jueyu would need effort to get through, unless Gu Yi came to blast the area.

Although perilous and full of hidden dangers, with Yang Lei leading them, they easily passed through this part of the forest. Looking back, the mountainside was still shrouded in thick fog, highlighting the Ancient Martial Arts Association’s painstaking efforts in setting this up.

“Consultant, we’ve passed the array,” Yang Lei said, “but I might not be able to help you with what’s ahead.”

“Oh? Are the mechanisms and traps further on even more troublesome?”

“No,” Yang Lei shook his head, “there are no new mechanisms or traps up ahead. However, there is a mutant creature, our Langya Mountain’s Guardian Mountain Beast, a mutated Tibetan Mastiff named Wu Li.”

“A mutated creature?” Fang Jueyu’s eyes narrowed to slits.

The mutation of animals, transforming them into entities like human superpower users, was extremely rare. Even the mutation rate for humans was below 1%, but the Creator was fair. Once they mutated, they became incredibly powerful and grew rapidly.

Er Gouzi’s breed was the Cosmic Beast Soul-devouring Beast. Such creatures evolved and emerged from such mutations over billions of years.

According to Xiao Yi’s information, once Mutant Beasts matured to a certain extent, their intelligence was on par with humans. With their natural physical advantages, the combat power gap between humans and Mutant Beasts of the same realm was vast.

“Host, from the information I collected on Earth, it is recorded that Wu Li was born in the northwest of Huaxia. However, it disappeared five years ago and was well protected. Later, it was tamed by the Ancient Martial Arts Association and became the Guardian Mountain Beast.”

“What realm is Wu Li in?” Fang Jueyu asked.

“It should be almost at the peak of the Heavenly Human Realm,” Yang Lei wasn’t sure, as this was just hearsay.

“Host, if it’s truly at the peak of the Heavenly Human Realm, its combat power likely rivals the Divinity Transformation Realm, probably not much weaker than a mid-stage Hidden Element User.”

“No worries, it’s not a big problem with this guy here!” Fang Jueyu kicked Er Gouzi’s butt. “Stupid dog!”

“Bark!” Er Gouzi stood up, looking at Fang Jueyu with disobedient eyes, seemingly questioning why he was kicked.

“I’m giving you a chance to redeem yourself. When you see that mutated dog called Wu Li, give it a good beating! If you can’t beat it, stop causing trouble for the neighborhood’s female dogs afterward!”

“Bark!” Er Gouzi barked, full of spirit. It was a noble Soul-devouring Beast, the king among dogs. How could a locally grown mutant mongrel from Earth compare?

“Consultant Fang, are we really going?”

“Do you have another way?”

Yang Lei was speechless. Wu Li was very intelligent. Everyone in the Ancient Martial Arts Association carried a token, and it wouldn’t attack them, but any other intruder would be torn to pieces by Wu Li.

“If not, let’s go!” A beast with strength near the Divinity Transformation Realm, Fang Jueyu was wary but not afraid. Trained in the most advanced Potential Guiding Technique, he was only an early-stage Hidden Element User, but with the martial arts he learned at the Super God Academy, he wouldn’t necessarily fear it.

Climbing several hundred meters up a vertical mountain path, a wide platform appeared. Another section of the path lay on the other side of the platform. To the side of this platform was a dark cave, which gave off a chilling feeling.

“Thud! Thud! Thud!” Heavy footsteps echoed from the cave as a hulking figure nearly three meters tall slowly emerged.

Its appearance was completely different from what Fang Jueyu imagined. Perhaps due to mutation, its fur was pure white like snow, with tusks glistening sharply. Wherever it went, it left a trail of ice crystals on the ground.

“Consultant, this is Wu Li,” Yang Lei took a deep breath. Every time he faced Wu Li, he was terrified. Though Wu Li appeared noble and sacred, those who saw it fight knew it was entirely a frenzied beast!

“Roar!” Although evolved from a Tibetan Mastiff, retaining some canine traits, it was trending towards another species.

A frigid airflow spewed from its mouth, mixed with a bloody scent, seemingly warning them not to proceed further.

Wu Li was fierce but also lazy. If it could deter mountain climbers, it wouldn’t bother taking action.

“Wow, it’s truly extraordinary. If you hadn’t told me it was a mutated Tibetan Mastiff, I’d have thought it was some legendary Bai Ze!”

“Consultant, this creature seems formidable,” the group of superpower users felt the urge to retreat. They could handle a Heavenly Human Realm master, but Wu Li’s strength was likely far above theirs.

“No worries, I’ve got muscle!”

“Er Gouzi! Go! Get it!”

“Consultant! You’re sending your dog to its doom?” The superpower users were stunned.
