Chapter 1941: Chapter 1792: So I’m the Heir After All (Part 2)
Shen Kunpeng stood up and said, "Let’s go, second brother, let’s head to Zhonghai and take a look; the tech museum there should be almost completed."
At the mention of the tech museum, Shen Kunhu perked up, "Big brother, the thing we’re setting up in the tech museum, can it really help us find that token?"
"Every token of the Shen family is equipped with a precise GPS locator, but the token hidden with the map is specially made, and the GPS cannot locate it. However, it still contains a chip that emits electronic frequencies, so as long as the equipment in the tech museum is well set up, we can conduct a global search. Although it will take quite some time, we will surely receive that frequency. Once we get the frequency, it won’t matter if we have the token or not."
"How long will it take?"
"A few months at the fastest, but who knows how long at the slowest. However, we’ve waited for so many years, so we’re not in a rush."
The two chatted as they walked out of the room.
At that moment, a handsome but expressionless man approached.
This was a forbidden area of the Shen family, only core members of the clan could enter, yet Shen Kunpeng and Shen Kunhu did not recognize the man.
Just as they were puzzled, the man shouted, "Dad, second uncle, where are you going?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Kunpeng and Shen Kunhu were stunned and took a closer look, only to realize the person in front of them was Shen Han.
"What the hell, why did you get plastic surgery?"
Shen Kunhu couldn’t help but exclaim at Shen Han’s completely changed face.
Shen Kunpeng frowned and said with irritation, "What’s wrong with you, of all things to do, you choose to undergo plastic surgery. Besides, you weren’t ugly before."
"You don’t understand, plastic surgery is the trend nowadays."
Of course, Shen Han wouldn’t mention that Song Yun had wrecked his face, forcing him to get surgery.
"Hmph."
Shen Kunpeng snorted coldly, his face displeased.
However, considering Shen Han is the most outstanding talent among the young generation of the Shen family, he didn’t say much more.
Shen Han asked, "Dad, did the Delas family kill Song Yun?"
The reason he came to Shen Kunpeng was to ask about this matter.
He now hated Song Yun deeply, but was unable to defeat him, so he had to pin his hopes on others.
Shen Kunpeng recounted the happenings in Yong’an District to Shen Han.
Upon hearing Richie was killed by Song Yun, Shen Han was greatly surprised.
He was aware of Richie’s strength, which was slightly greater than his own; he couldn’t be a match.
However, the Blood Clan’s strength is innate, while Shen Han still has considerable room for improvement, and defeating Richie in the future wouldn’t be an issue.
But he hadn’t expected Richie to be killed already.
He felt even more apprehensive about Song Yun, who left a shadow in his heart.
Nevertheless, he displayed a disdainful expression and said to Shen Kunpeng, "Dad, since the Delas family can’t handle it, let me take action. I can easily kill that Song Yun kid."
Shen Kunpeng was satisfied with Shen Han’s confidence, nodded, and said, "If you take action, you can surely slay Song Yun. But now is not the time to act; focus on preparing for the upcoming Four Gates Tournament, don’t concern yourself with other matters."
Shen Han showed a regretful expression, shaking his head, "It’s such a pity, I wanted to meet that Song Yun kid and see if he can withstand my three swords."
...
In the blink of an eye, two months passed.
During this period, Song Yun had been focused on cultivation, occasionally going out with the ladies and his son, but ignoring external matters.
Unexpectedly, the Delas family and the Shen family both quieted down; no one caused trouble for him.
Over the two months, he smoothly reached the mid-SS level.
Moreover, what he didn’t expect was after reaching mid-SS level, Phantom Step automatically progressed to the next level, reaching three hundred meters in one step.
He assessed the strength of other SS realms and realized with Yin Xi’s Manual training, he was stronger than others.
Although mid-SS level, it was comparable to late SS.
Plus Phantom Step, he could almost instantly kill SS peak.
If he wielded Black Light Sword, he could even contend with SSS level.
Of course, Song Yun hadn’t encountered SSS level before, so he wasn’t sure how strong it truly was.
But considering the destructive power of Black Light Sword Qi, it seemed likely even SSS levels would be wary.
After finishing the day’s cultivation, Song Yun picked up to read.
Whenever he had free time recently, he read this book.
The book is full of experiences from the inheritors of Yin Xi’s Manual, describing many strange phenomena.
Based on the place names mentioned, the events span over a thousand years.
Yesterday, Song Yun read records about Jiao Long, detailing the situation of Jiao Long facing tribulation in the Chinese Kunlun Mountain.
Lightning flashed, thunder roared, dark clouds gathered, resembling the end of the world.
In the end, Jiao Long failed its tribulation, and the inheritor of Yin Xi’s Manual at the time seized the opportunity, capturing the weakened Jiao Long as a mount.
It was riding a dragon—much cooler than flying a plane.
Song Yun couldn’t help but wonder, how awesome it would be if he could ride a dragon one day.
However, in this era, there should be no Jiao Long existing anymore; otherwise, humans wouldn’t survive once it appeared.
"During Jin Taiyuan, Wuling People fished for a living. Following the stream, forgetting the distance of the road. Suddenly encountering a peach blossom forest, the banks stretched hundreds of steps, without mixed trees in the center..."
Song Yun flipped to a page and suddenly saw about Tao Yuanming.
"Huh, why is this article here."
Song Yun was greatly surprised, sat up straight, and read carefully.
This page reproduces the entire article, with a mocking tone behind, saying Taoyuan is all fake, that the fisherman merely entered an Illusion Array.
Once entering an illusion, one would never emerge, but the person got lucky, walking out on their own.
Otherwise, they would have certainly been trapped forever within the illusion.
As for Taoyuan, one of the inheritors of Yin Xi’s Manual had ventured inside, and according to his writings, it was merely a retreat place for a group of minor cultivators.
Yet, Taoyuan boasted beautiful scenery, a pleasant environment, making it an excellent place to reside.
Moreover, due to various arrays, the spiritual power inside greatly surpassed the outside; in a place like Earth, the cultivation conditions are quite superb.
Though Taoyuan’s cultivators do not interact with the outside world, they are kind-hearted, honest, and hospitable.
The person was warmly received upon arrival.
Through karma, he stayed in Taoyuan for a year, teaching many things to the minor cultivators, increasingly strengthening them, greatly grateful to him.
Afterwards, the person left, crafted a map with "Taoyuan" inscribed, divided it into two parts, placed it in a bottle, tossed it into a stream, leaving it to fate.
Only those who obtain both maps and combine them can find the entrance to Taoyuan.
Although the entry array is exceedingly low-level in the inheritor’s eyes, it obstructs anyone below SSS level, so without the map, anyone below SSS cannot enter Taoyuan.
Moreover, Taoyuan’s location is very secretive, finding it without a map is a significant issue.
If one reads "Wuling People fished for a living" and thus seeks Wuling, it would be a huge mistake.
Thus, for anyone below SSS level, the map is essential to enter Taoyuan.
Whoever enters Taoyuan can interact with cultivators, obtain valuable things, and change their destiny.
Seeing this, Song Yun understood most of it.
He murmured, "Apparently, details about ’Taoyuan’ must have spread through two maps. No wonder the Shen family seeks to enter Taoyuan; they’re certainly after the treasures inside and want to connect with cultivators to enhance family power. Naturally, other families likely have the same intentions. But after so many years, nobody knows where the maps are, so they cannot find Taoyuan’s location."
"The Shen family’s actions are larger than other families, which means they have clues. The clue must be the map, and the map is inside the ’Shen’ token."
Song Yun wore a solemn expression and took out the ’Shen’ token.
