Chapter 985 - 971: Golden Light

As Jing Chu descended, the winds stirred in the heavens. His silhouette, elegant and ethereal, slowly descended from the vast sky, gracefully landing.

At this moment, Su Muyao was inside the cave and didn’t notice this at all.

Her attention was on the Zaizai. This time, she gave birth to two Zaizai effortlessly. Looking at them, her heart melted.

One was a female Golden Leopard Cub, and the other was a Golden Lotus Beast Cub.

However, the female Golden Lotus Beast Cub was wrapped in a layer of golden membrane, seemingly asleep inside.

The sunlight cloaked this surface, bringing forth a dazzling array of colors.

Su Muyao glanced at Mei Qingchen and said, "She won’t have any problems, will she?"

Su Muyao didn’t quite understand what the Plant-type Beastman entailed.

Mei Qingchen’s gaze was fixed on Su Muyao.

To him, his wife was the most important of all.

Of course, he cast a glance at the two Zaizai, and while thrilled, he realized something within, concentrating on Su Muyao as if to imprint her image in his mind, his eyes filled with tender affection.

Hearing Su Muyao’s question, Mei Qingchen came back to his senses.

He possessed a bloodline connection, able to sense the Zaizai’s condition.

Golden Leopard Female Cub, Golden Lotus Female Cub, their parents would be beyond excited knowing this.

"Father, Mother, sister is doing well."

The Golden Leopard Female Cub adorably called out to Su Muyao and Mei Qingchen, pointing at the light membrane.

Su Muyao’s heart jolted. Looking at the adorable and beautiful Golden Leopard Cub, she asked, "You know?"

"Is it sister?"

It turned out the Golden Lotus Cub was a female cub.

The Golden Leopard Female Cub nodded hard and said, "Yes, yes, Mother, it’s sister."

"Sister is fine, and she will awaken and emerge from her shell by herself when she’s ready."

Mei Qingchen explained, "She indeed is a Pure Blood Golden Lotus Female Cub. Her powers are somewhat special, born with the Golden Lotus Inheritance Power. Moreover, that influx of Spiritual Energy and Dao Rhyme that just entered your body also went into hers. That power contains the Heavenly Dao Aura, and during her sleep, she is absorbing and assimilating this power."

"She is just fine."

"Wife, thank you."

Saying thank you, Mei Qingchen’s voice was choked with emotion.

His heart was filled with intense love, unsure how to express gratitude to his wife.

His wife’s fertility must be the Divine Pregnancy Ability too.

Su Muyao gently embraced the Golden Leopard Cub, also reaching out to softly touch the membrane around the Golden Lotus Female Cub, "Mother loves you both."

As for names, Mei Qingchen had thought them through long ago in his heart.

He just didn’t expect them to be two female cubs. In the Beast World, female cubs are the most precious existences.

One is named Mei Ruonuan, and the other Mei Ruochao.

Both convey warmth like the rising sun.

Like the current bright and sunny sky.

At that moment, Su Muyao seemed to sense something and looked in a certain direction outside the cave, then saw a figure in green.

The sunlight fell on him, obscuring his features momentarily, but that silhouette felt familiar to Su Muyao, making her heart race uncontrollably.

She could hardly believe it, thinking she might be hallucinating.

Mei Qingchen followed Su Muyao’s gaze and also saw Jing Chu at once, "Jing Chu!"

Only then did Mei Qingchen notice a crack seemed to have appeared in the sky.

At that moment, a flash of lightning suddenly streaked across from beyond the heavens.

The entire sky darkened immediately, and the ground began to tremble.

"Boom..."

The Mo Rong Clan Beastman, originally in excitement, suddenly felt the earth move, their faces changed.

"What’s going on?"

"I feel the ground moving."

"Feels like when we fell here before."

"Why does it alternate between cold and hot?"

Everyone felt like the weather was both hot and cold simultaneously.

The Mo Rong Clan Beastman remembered the celestial phenomena at that time, when their ancestral land suddenly cracked, and they were swept into it by some force.

Mo Shan’s heart raced a bit, thinking, perhaps they’re returning to the ancestral land?

Not sure what’s going on with Miss Su there.

"Boom..."

Giant bolts of lightning appeared in the sky, as if flashing through the sky’s crack from beyond.

It gave off an eerie feeling.

Like Heavenly Thunder tearing through something.

This phenomenon made Su Muyao feel as if some force was tearing apart the entire Mountain and River Map.

Just as she thought this, a fierce wind swept in, swirling like a tornado toppling all surrounding trees.

Some mountain peaks were affected by the immense force, continuously trembling, with rocks sliding down.

"Boom... Crash..."

"Whoosh..."

The fierce wind howled, lifting the thick snow in the forest, biting cold against their ears.

Su Muyao and the others were almost swept into it by the mighty wind.

Mei Qingchen released his superpower, shielding Su Muyao and the two Zaizai.

At that moment, the fierce wind was suppressed by a force.

Now Jing Chu stood by the cave entrance.

"Jing Chu, how did you find this place?"

Su Muyao was still somewhat bewildered.

Jing Chu sighed inwardly, having searched for her for a long time, and learning that she might have entered the Taichu Mountain and River Map, he tried every means to get in.

But couldn’t actually enter it.

"The power is destroying the Taichu Mountain and River Map. We must leave here quickly."

As Jing Chu spoke, suddenly a vortex appeared in the sky, sweeping each member of the Mo Rong Clan Beastman into it.

When Su Muyao and Jing Chu were about to be swept in, Jing Chu used Divine Power to take them all away from there.

When they emerged from the Taichu Mountain and River Map, Su Muyao realized they had indeed come out from a map.

Yet now the Mountain and River Map suspended in the air of Ghost Ruins Canyon seemed split by some force.

She looked up at the sky, with constant thunder, lightning striking the Mountain and River Map repeatedly.

Not only that, but black and red flames were also burning the Taichu Mountain and River Map.

Su Muyao and Mei Qingchen held the Zaizai tightly, but Su Muyao’s heart was still filled with many doubts, "Isn’t the Taichu Mountain and River Map a Divine Artifact? How could it be destroyed like this?"

In her view, a Divine Artifact should be indestructible.

Jing Chu sighed and said, "The Heavenly Dao Power within it has dissipated, so it is no longer a Divine Artifact."

"And moreover, the most important things within it should already be gone."

Su Muyao’s expression shifted.

Upon entering the altar back then, she and Mei Qingchen sensed the Heavenly Dao’s power dissipating.

Listening to Jing Chu’s words, Su Muyao’s heartstrings quickly tightened, "What important things?"

Jing Chu said, "I learned from the mouths of High-level Demon Beasts in Ghost Ruins Canyon that they were searching for some ancient Great Array records sealed during the Taichu Period and some forbidden Dark Secret Techniques."

"The formations and secret techniques the Demon Beasts have learned are incomplete, and they want to acquire stronger powers."

"It’s said there’s a resurrection Heaven-defying Array and Heaven-defying Secret Technique for beastmen."

"Those Demon Beasts couldn’t enter the Mountain and River Map, so they wanted to destroy the map, hoping to find such things."

"Because when the Taichu Mountain and River Map is damaged, especially when burned, the important things within would be ejected, but clearly, there weren’t any important things inside."

Su Muyao thought of the box she retrieved from inside. Could it be that this contains those records?

Before Su Muyao could say more, just after entering the forest above the Ghost Ruins Canyon, Mei Qingchen emerged. The Divine Blood Power in his body lost control, and an intense golden light burst from him, seemingly enveloping the entire forest.

Immediately after, the golden light soared into the sky, forming a golden pillar of light that encompassed him and the two Zaizai within it.
