Mushroom Man

Two days later...

Two uninvited guests arrived at the deep sea where the Dragon Palace is located.

These two uninvited guests were none other than the benevolent spirit of Zhuge and the malevolent spirit of Huowang.

"It should be right here..."

"The two of us searched the surrounding sea inch by inch, but we couldn't find anything unusual."

"This place is rather strange, as it is home to so many dragonfish."

"Arowanas are very delicate creatures, and it would be impossible for them to grow to such a large scale without careful breeding."

"Therefore, the so-called Dragon Palace is very likely located in the vicinity."

Zhuge Shanhun spoke softly, glancing around as he spoke.

The seabed looked unremarkable, except for the abundance of coral.

At first glance, there was nothing unusual about it.

However, what's strange is that in such an unremarkable place, there are quite a few dragonfish lingering and living here.

These dragonfish varied in size, with the largest measuring several meters in length and the smallest only an inch in diameter. Each one was richly colored and had thick, long whiskers.

It's obvious at a glance that this is a group of mushroom animals that have been raised very well.

Clearly, these dragonfish are the biggest flaw left behind by the Dragon Palace.

In fact, none of the dragon people in the Dragon Palace, whether it was the Golden Dragon King or the Silver Dragon King, were fools.

They knew, of course, that leaving these dragonfish here would be a weakness in the Dragon Palace.

However, dealing with such a large number of arowanas, numbering in the millions, is truly no easy task.

First of all, the Dragon Palace itself cannot accommodate so many dragonfish.

It's impossible to take all these dragonfish into the Dragon Palace.

However, moving them from this place to another location would be extremely inappropriate, as it could easily cause losses and would be impossible to monitor in real time.

Under these circumstances, Longgong had no choice but to release these dragonfish into the area.

Of course, this move is not entirely bad.

Although releasing the arowana into this area may expose the dragon palace to the risk, it can also protect the dragon palace to some extent.

You should know that these arowanas are no pushovers.

Don't be fooled by their harmless appearance; they are all genuine mushroom beasts, and quite a few of them are at the fourth level.

Ao Miaoyin's silver dragonfish is one of them.

With these dragonfish guarding the vicinity of the Dragon Palace, it is enough to deter any scoundrels who carelessly trespass into this place.

Even a level 5 Mushroom Master would probably have to think twice before facing such a large group of dragonfish.

Once a level 5 mushroom master is surrounded by dragon fish, giving the Dragon Palace time to react, then death is all that awaits him.

Moreover, even if the attackers are extremely powerful and can easily defeat the dragon fish, they still cannot discover the dragon palace that has disappeared into the mirage.

As a result, most mushroom growers will choose to stop while they're ahead.

After all, obtaining so many dragonfish is already a tremendous gain; there's no need to risk going out of your way to find the Dragon Palace for some uncertain opportunity.

This is why the Dragon Palace releases dragonfish here, taking into account all aspects.

Unfortunately……

The Dragon Palace is really unlucky.

Originally intended as the first line of defense for the Dragon Palace, these dragonfish failed to stop anyone.

Logically speaking, these dragonfish also possess the ability to monitor, serving as the eyes of the Dragon Palace and constantly keeping an eye on the situation outside.

If any outsider approaches the dragonfish, it will inevitably be discovered by the Dragon Palace.

However, Xiao Chusheng first used his transformation techniques to deceive the dragon fish without anyone noticing and infiltrated this place.

Then came Zhuge Shanhun and Huo Wang Ehun, both of whom, being ghosts, could not be detected by anyone without the aid of soul techniques.

Over time, by sheer chance, the huge school of arowanas became nothing more than decorations.

Not only did it fail to serve its purpose, it also became an uninvited guest, discovering a flaw in the Dragon Palace. "A dragon fish..."

"This is a considerable fortune for mushroom growers."

"It seems that this so-called Dragon Palace is even richer than we thought, and its foundation must be quite substantial."

The fiery evil spirit stared at the million dragonfish that inhabited this place, its eyes darting around, and spoke in a sinister tone.

Despite saying that, the two of them did not have any greedy thoughts about these dragonfish.

If it weren't for the sheer number of dragonfish that involved the Dragon Palace, the two of them probably wouldn't have even bothered to glance at them.

Zhuge Shanhun and Huowang Evil Soul are, after all, the divided souls of the Holy Sect Immortal Zhuge Huowang, and are genuine mushroom immortals!
No matter how rare a group of dragonfish may be, they are still just ordinary mushroom materials.

Perhaps a fifth-level mushroom master would be envious of this, or even covet it.

But for an immortal like Zhuge Huowang, these dragonfish are not even appetizers, and he is too lazy to keep them.

A single drop of their golden liquid could probably buy countless mushroom beasts from the heavens above.

Arowanas may be rare in the mortal world, but if placed in the heavens, they would be somewhat unworthy of being presented.

"Since we know about the Dragon Palace, it's very likely that it's hidden nearby. Let's use our means to search for it."

"Do not disturb these dragonfish, lest the news leak out and the dragon people become wary."

Zhuge Shanhun nodded slightly and spoke softly.

The evil spirits that are enraged by the fire have this intention, so there is nothing wrong with it.

The two exchanged a glance and then each displayed their unique abilities.

"Soul-reaping spree..."

Zhuge Shanhun made the first move, and a wisp of black smoke appeared at his fingertips.

If Wu Liang were here, he would surely recognize that this wisp of black smoke was actually closely related to him.

It turns out that this wisp of black smoke was the trace left behind by Wu Liang in the blessed land of the tomb.

This includes, but is not limited to, hair, footprints, scent, etc.

At this moment, Zhuge Huowang discovered all these clues one by one, using them as a pretext to capture Wu Liang.

With these clues in hand, even if Wu Liang hides to the ends of the earth, he will not be able to escape the deadly move of pursuing his soul.

however……

"Ok?"

"That shouldn't be the case; it should be somewhere nearby..."

Zhuge Shanhun frowned, surprised to find that even with the Soul Chaser, he still couldn't find Wu Liang's exact location.

Based on the feedback from the killing move, Wu Liang's current location is extremely strange.

It evokes a feeling of something that is both close at hand and yet far away.

"Weird..."

"This feeling... Could it be that the kid has hidden away in a blessed land?"

"Could it be that the so-called Dragon Palace is actually located within a blessed land?"

Zhuge Shanhun hesitated for a moment before stating his judgment.

Upon hearing this, the fiery evil spirit immediately became interested and eagerly asked, "A blessed land? Let me take a look!"

"Demon Eye... Activate!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a scarlet ghost eye opened between his eyebrows.

In an instant, everything around was covered with a faint red glow.

Under the red light, some traces that are not usually visible were revealed one by one.

Even so, nothing unusual was found in this place.

The fiery evil spirits were unconcerned and instead intensified their efforts.

If one ghost eye isn't enough, then two, three... (End of Chapter)
