Chapter 148 Exposed Entrance to the Burial Ground
“Are you saying that the person who burned the Pavilion had an Immortal Phoenix?” Li Min was also very shocked. “Hasn’t this ancient Divine Beast race been hiding from the world for many years and disappeared? Why would anyone still have this kind of Divine Beast?”
“There are many ways to obtain various kinds of mutated beasts. Just because you don’t know doesn’t mean that there aren’t any,” the man in black said coldly. “However, that person might not necessarily have a Divine Beast. It’s possible that he only obtained the tinder of the Great Sun True Fire. If he really has such a rare Divine Beast, it’s impossible for him to be trapped in the underground palace for so long.”
However, Li Min mustered up the courage to refute.
“Not necessarily. The subordinates I sent to investigate the whereabouts of the thief found something strange. It has a lot to do with the City Lord Residence,” he said. “The reason why the City Lord Residence is investigating the thief is that the treasures in the mansion were stolen. According to my investigation, this did indeed happen. Moreover, the captain of the guards guarding the mansion, Gao Ming, obtained a strange fish one day before the mansion was robbed. It looks like the hidden form of a certain mutated beast.” “What kind of mutated beast is it?” The man in black frowned.
“Other people don’t know about that, but after I compared the image of the fish with the ancient books Mr. Yan left behind, I realized that it looked like a Deep Sea Giant Kun Peng,” Li Min answered. “Some people said that after Gao Ming obtained the strange fish, he was extremely happy. On the way back to the City Lord Residence, he bought many materials for increasing the power of the mutated beast as if he had found a treasure. However, after the robbery, this strange fish also disappeared. I suspect that the theft of this Divine Beast and the underground palace was done by the same person.”
However, the man in black was somewhat surprised.
“Are you saying that a Deep Sea Giant Kun Peng also appeared here at that time?” He asked, “How could a captain of the City Lord Residence obtain a Deep Sea Giant Kun Peng of the Divine Beast Level? Although the Deep Sea Giant Kun Pengs didn’t hide from the world and enter a foreign realm, it’s definitely as difficult as ascending to the heavens to get it.”
“There’s something you don’t know. In a small place like Fan City, everyone is lacking in ability. It’s most likely that someone accidentally obtained a young Divine Beast from the sea and was discovered by the City Lord Residence. Then, they forcefully confiscated it.” Li Min sighed. “The people from the City Lord Residence have done many such things. Not to mention ordinary people, even the people of the big families in our city can’t avoid losing interest.”
The man in black looked at him with disdain in his eyes.

“If you had obtained a Divine Beast, would you have rashly entered the city when you knew that the people from the City Lord Residence would come and snatch it?” he said disdainfully. “Don’t look at the problem in a too shallow way. The connection between these two thefts is probably completely different from what you think. That mutated beast was most likely given to the captain of the guards on purpose by the thief.”
“How could this be?!” Li Min shouted in shock.
“The Deep Sea Giant Kun Pengs have the ability to devour. The thief most likely instigated the mutated beast to rob the City Lord Residence,” the man in black replied. “Moreover, that mutated beast might not be a Deep Sea Giant Kun Peng. It might be a Divine Roc that is related to the Deep Sea Giant Kun Pengs by blood. It can transform into two forms and has the Mystic Ability of Extreme Speed. When it’s used, it’s extremely similar to the description of that thief when he was escaping quickly.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the man in black couldn’t help but also find it a knotty problem. “If the thief has a Divine Beast like the Divine Roc, it’s also possible for him to have an Immortal Phoenix at the same time.”
He couldn’t help but think of the ancient book left in his home. It recorded that the Ancient Altar used to make Divine Beast Eggs required the blood of the Immortal Phoenix and the Divine Roc to open. “That thief has already had these two mutated beasts. Looks like he has probably already opened the altar— he muttered to himself.

Although the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm that the Yan family had created in the early years was thrown into Fire Kite Mountain, the cultivation art tablet of the Fire Suppression Art that was produced from it had always been connected to the Mystic Realm. This time, the connection between the key and the Mystic Realm was suddenly cut off. This could only prove one thing. The Mystic Realm had already entered a foreign realm with the reborn Divine Beast Zhurong. And for Divine Beast Zhurong to disappear at such a fast speed, it meant that the entrance to the foreign realm was definitely near Demon Flame Mountain’s original location. It wasn’t too far from Fan City.
Therefore, he thought of the foreign realm in this area that the Yan family had sensed through mutated beasts.
It was a foreign realm with poor Spiritual Energy. According to the ancient books, it was very likely the Burial Ground of the crucial altar used for creating mutated beasts. At that time, the ancestors of the Yan family wanted to find the entrance to the foreign realm and enter. However, a strange thing happened. The spatial crack that was the entrance was protected by an invisible barrier and it couldn’t be opened no matter what.
The Python Race’s altar being found nearby was even more strange. It was impossible to take it away from Fan City. It was precisely because of this that they had left the altar here and trained the Li family of Fan City as their informant. On the outside, they looked like they were there to develop the resources in Demon Flame Mountain, but in fact, they could also monitor the situation of the foreign realm with the Burial Ground.
However, after the last leader of the family died in the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm, the Yan family fell into chaos and lost contact with the Li family in Fan City, causing him to be unable to obtain the latest news.
Now, he suspected that the foreign world that Divine Beast Zhurong had entered was the Burial Ground. After all, the entrance to the foreign world that he had previously found was in the east of Fan City.
Thinking of this, he asked again, “Has anything strange happened over these years in the place you last found the thief when you were tracking him down?”
“Fan City seems to be quite peaceful these years. All the major events only happened recently. Let me think— Li Min answered.
He thought for a while and suddenly slapped his forehead.
“There was one thing! A bastard son my second brother reunited kept going over there recently and went missing for some reason. We didn’t pay much attention to him. He seems to be called Li Yan— Li Min finally remembered his nephew who had a low sense of presence and started to recall with difficulty.” The last time my family saw him, that kid even established a Beast Spirit Throne and said he wanted to go to the forest to hunt!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly shuddered.
The man in black stared at him, trying to verify if what he said was true.
“I’m telling the truth! I swear!” Li Min quickly added, “The Young Master of the Wang family in Fan City, Wang Dong, also went missing with that kid. You’ll know once you ask around!”
“There’s no need to say anything else.” The man in black nodded and instructed, “Bring your people and come with me to that place to take a look.”
He had a feeling that the entrance to the foreign realm of the Burial Ground had definitely been opened.
