Chapter 1063: Chapter 1063: Pulling Off Something Big

Deep within Fulong Mountain, by the stream.

Wang Chen set up a bonfire and then hung the skewered Flood Dragon meat above it.

The crystalline jade-like Flood Dragon meat, seared by the intense flames, soon turned golden and began to ooze oil, emitting a strange and tempting aroma.

It made one’s mouth water just by smelling it!

After the Slaying the Flood Dragon battle, Wang Chen had all the materials he acquired exchanged for Flood Dragon meat, with the intention of using the flesh of this Fourth Order Demon King to nourish his own body and break through the limits of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method.

During this period, Wang Chen made it a point to feast on Flood Dragon meat at least once in each of his three daily meals.

The effects of this nutritional replenishment were quite good as the previously stagnant experience points of the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method began to increase continuously.

However, unlike in the Immortal City of Luodu, when the aroma of the roasting Flood Dragon meat spread through these deep mountains and forests, insects within a range of several hundred steps were attracted.

But before they could get close, they were instantly killed by an invisible Sword Qi.

Their bodies piled up thickly on the ground!

Just as Wang Chen took the roasted Flood Dragon meat from the rack and was about to enjoy his meal wholeheartedly, a nimble leopard beast stealthily emerged behind him.

This solitary Monster Beast exhibited quite a bit of intelligence. Despite having its prey within reach, it refrained from rashly launching an attack, instead cautiously adjusting its posture, seeking the right moment to strike.

It was not until Wang Chen began to eat the Flood Dragon meat with big bites that the leopard could no longer restrain itself and suddenly leaped, biting towards the back of Wang Chen’s neck with its gaping maw.

Its movement was as fast as lightning, its attack sharp and peerless, and its mouth full of sharp teeth could easily tear through heavy armor.

However, at the very moment the Monster Beast was about to bite Wang Chen, a Flying Sword enveloped in fierce Evil Qi descended from the sky, impaling the creature’s head with pinpoint accuracy.

Nailing the leopard beast dead on the spot!

This Second Order peak Monster Beast, nearly at the strength of Third Order, was thus killed instantly.

[Human Virtue +900]

Such gains were now trivial to Wang Chen, who focused wholeheartedly on savoring the Flood Dragon meat in his hands, activating the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method to enhance his stomach’s digestive ability, ensuring not a bit of energy went to waste.

The essence of the blood and flesh from the Fourth Order Demon King was thus fully absorbed by Wang Chen, gradually enhancing the strength of his Physique.

Wang Chen even vaguely felt that once he consumed a sufficient quantity of Flood Dragon meat, his Physique points would further increase!

Meanwhile, the leopard beast, with its own life, warned other Monster Beasts that had been attracted by the scent of the meat, deterring them from approaching Wang Chen, eventually causing them to reluctantly leave.

In fact, there weren’t any Monster Beasts or members of the Monster Race of Third Order or above in this area; regardless of how many came, they were all just meals for Wang Chen.

After eating ten jin (approximately 5 kilograms) of Flood Dragon meat and drinking two jin (approximately 1 kilogram) of Monkey Spirit Wine, Wang Chen belched contently.

The Flood Dragon he had hunted and killed, which was of the cold water attribute, countered his innate attribute, and even with the enhancement from the Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method, it was not easy to digest.

But Wang Chen found that drinking Monkey Wine, which he had “extorted,” while eating the meat could greatly neutralize the cold property of the Flood Dragon, significantly increasing his efficiency of absorption.

Moreover, this Spiritual Wine itself was an excellent tonic, complementing the Flood Dragon meat perfectly!

[Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method experience +1]

Half a two hours later, Wang Chen sprang up from the ground, his eyes electric and his body enveloped in a strong energy.

His gaze turned towards the vast mountains in the distance.

It was time for a big score!

Over the past half month, Wang Chen had been roaming around Fulong Mountain, using the Fulong Mountain Geomancy Map to search for the Fire-eyed Long Ape groups from three different clans.

He managed to extort a total of more than ten thousand jin of Spiritual Wine.

Although this Monkey Wine was excellent, compared to what Wang Chen needed, it was still like a drop in the bucket, and the Fire-eyed Long Apes weren’t potatoes that could be unearthed in abundance just by digging the ground.

Wang Chen’s most significant gain was the discovery of the marvelous use of Fate through these successive lootings.

It proved that Fate, bolstered by burning Heavenly Merit, truly could bring him great luck!

Wang Chen had spent 30,000 Heavenly Merit points on three occasions, blessing himself with 1,000 Fate points each time.

But this time, he decided to burn 100,000 Heavenly Merit points at once!

To see whether he could stumble upon a vast fortune with the blessing of 10,000 Fate points.

Initially, Wang Chen thought of searching for mineral veins. Just finding one valuable vein would be enough to pay off the final installment to the Four Seas Commerce Association.

However, upon further consideration, he deemed it inappropriate.

Because even if he truly discovered a vein, how to excavate and mine it was a big problem.

After all, Wang Chen was just one person.

And if it was a Spirit Stone Mine, it would be fine, but other minerals would not only increase the difficulty of mining but also pose troubles in selling.

Taking tens of thousands of tons of ore to sell, others would figure it out in a glance!

It would be a self-inflicted hardship.

Therefore, after much thought, Wang Chen pinned his hopes on the Cave Mansions of his predecessors.

As long as he could find an undiscovered Cave Mansion of a predecessor, the gains would definitely not fall short of a mineral vein.

In fact, they might greatly exceed.

Within these hundreds of thousands of miles of Fulong Mountain, it is said that many Cave Mansions of predecessors are hidden, many of which have been discovered and excavated, but some still remain a mystery to this day.

In the Immortal City of Luodu, there are many legends and stories about the predecessors’ Cave Mansions of Fulong Mountain, and they vary between truth and fiction.

Wang Chen decided to try his luck.

He opened his Cultivation Panel and glanced at his Heavenly Merit points.

Originally, Wang Chen didn’t have many Heavenly Merit points, but upon his return from the Cangqing Domain to the Haotian Realm, he encountered the pursuing cultivators from the Lv Family and, using the power of a grand formation, he slaughtered four Golden Core cultivators.

As a result, he gained nearly 200,000 Heavenly Merit points!

It was with this substantial amount of Heavenly Merit that Wang Chen dared to lavish on testing his Fate.

As the saying goes, you can’t catch a wolf without locking your children away; if you want a satisfying return, you can’t be stingy with your investments.

With the successful examples before him, Wang Chen’s ambitions swelled!

[Heavenly Merit -100000]

A hundred thousand Heavenly Merit points disappeared in an instant, and Wang Chen felt his body lighten, as if he was about to float away.

This feeling was not unfamiliar to him, but it had never been so intense!

This was what it felt like to be blessed with 10,000 Fate points!

Without hesitation, he deployed his movement technique and darted deeper into Fulong Mountain.

The blessing of Fate had a time limit; Wang Chen didn’t know how long 10,000 Fate points could maintain his luck, so he had to race against time.

This time, Wang Chen chose an unexplored area that wasn’t marked on the Fulong Mountain Geomantic Map.

The Spiritual Artifact given to him by Huangfu Yongchun didn’t record the entirety of Fulong Mountain but just a part of it; large areas were not indicated.

Which also meant unpredictable dangers.

Maybe that area was a Demon King’s territory, and intruding there could result in being slapped to death with one swipe of its paw!

But with the blessing of 10,000 Fate points, Wang Chen didn’t believe he would be that unlucky.

The bigger the storm, the more valuable the fish!
