Versatile Mage: The core of the Ark, childhood sweetheart Ding Yumian

Chapter 198 The tragedy thirty years ago!
Fang Zhou did not hide too much in front of Yan Shi. She sensed his super-level thunder aura. Otherwise, with the armor of the Dead Emperor, no one could sense his cultivation level.

After all, he awakened earlier, practiced faster, and had better talent, so it is reasonable for him to break through to a super level now!
"Since you have already reached a higher level, why not stay and accompany me, an old woman? The beast king of the outer Kunyu Mountain seems to be dead. It was not aggressive towards us humans before, so the main hidden danger here for more than 30 years has been the sea monsters. I'm afraid something unexpected might happen." Yan said.

"Thirty years?" Fang Zhou keenly sensed a key point.

"That beast king is a great monarch, and his strength is not inferior to that of the Silver Dome Lord. When we went to war with the White Demon Eagle Tribe, we might have frightened the mountain beasts there, so we have been living in peace for so many years." Yan said lightly.

Fang Zhou did not refuse, and he could not refuse.

Moreover, he had already guessed that the guy who defeated the beast king of the outer Kunyu Mountain was most likely the Tianguan Zilin sacred tree. The hidden devil tree had walked out from the depths of the Qinling Mountains and came to this place again.

More than thirty years ago, it was this tree that disguised itself as a sacred tree and provoked a war between the White Magic Eagle Tribe and human magicians. Only the Moon Moth Phoenix saw through its true face and ended up becoming a victim, while the devil tree is still at large!

Lunch was cooked by Jiang Feng. Although she is no longer a human being, she still has the radiance of humanity. She is a gentle and kind woman.

At the dinner table, Yan took a look at the little moon-moth phoenix on Yu Shishi's hair. She felt something in her heart, as if she was lost in memories, and she rarely talked about the past with the moon-moth phoenix.
Thirty years ago, the White Demon Eagle Tribe invaded the outer Kunyu Mountain and discovered a sacred Tianguan Purple Tilia tree. They started a war with all the ethnic groups and tribes that were vassals of the Tianguan Purple Tilia tree.

By that time, the White Magic Eagles were already a large tribe. If the White Magic Eagles tribe were allowed to occupy the Heavenly Crown Purple Tilia Sacred Tree, they would have a chance to transform into the White Magic Eagle Empire, and all the cities in the north close to the mountains would cease to exist!
The leader at that time felt that they could not passively defend, so he invested a lot of manpower to help the Sky-Crown Purple Tilia creatures to eliminate the expansion of the White Magic Eagle tribe.

The blood of that war covered the outer Kunyu Mountains, and the corpses of human magicians, the White Magic Eagle Tribe, and the Sky Crown Purple Tilia Sacred Tree Tribe piled up into a small hill.

After ten days of bloody fighting, the White Magic Eagle Tribe was suppressed under the siege of humans and the Sacred Tree Tribe. But when the White Magic Eagle Tribe was about to be defeated, the Moon Moth Phoenix stopped humans from killing the White Magic Eagles. They frantically attacked the Sky Crown Purple Tilia Sacred Tree Tribe and stood on the opposite side of humans.

The Moon Moth Phoenix was called back by the Yan family and fell into a killing array. People saw with their own eyes that its body disintegrated and broke into countless small green moths, which flew to other places with wounds all over their bodies.

It was after that battle that Yan fell into deep self-blame and directly withdrew from the field of magic.

The winner of that battle was naturally the Tianguan Zilin sacred tree, and people also stopped the White Magic Eagle tribe's imperial trend. After this heavy blow, the White Magic Eagle fled further south and hid in the Nanling Mountains to survive. It was only in recent years that it slowly recovered some of its luck.

"But we were all wrong. Everything was just a foraging trip for the devil tree. All the wars that took place around it eventually turned into the most delicious soil nutrients for it!"

“Only the Moon Moth Phoenix discovered this secret. She knows that the Sky-Crown Purple Tilia Sacred Tree is a devil. She is not standing against us, but wants to destroy it with the help of the White Magic Eagle!” Yan was even a little breathless for a moment, with great regret. Why didn’t he realize this thirty years ago?

Jiang Feng, Chen Ying and Yu Shishi were very surprised. Even though Yue Mo Huang and her daughter had returned, Yan Shi had not wanted to recall the sad past in the past year. They could only guess, but they did not expect the truth to be like this! "So the black snake incident in Songcheng was actually a test. Some of the current leaders do not believe in the ancient totems." Fang Zhou suddenly said.

"You are right. It is indeed because of the misunderstanding between Moon Moth Phoenix and I that the current leaders no longer believe in totem beasts. This is my fault." Yan lamented.

"Fortunately, everything did not turn out to be the worst." Fang Zhou said with relief.

"After Yue Moth Phoenix and Xiao Feng came back, I figured out a lot. Regret can't solve any problem. It can only solve myself. So I used some connections to try to find the trace of the devil tree. It's a pity that it hasn't appeared for more than 30 years. I guess the huge harvest allowed it to eat well for many years. But now it seems to be back, and I must go and see. If it's true, even if I die, I will die with it!" Yan said heavily, his expression extremely firm.

After a night's rest, Yan took them into the mountains early the next morning.

Yan Shi is a semi-forbidden spell master, and his strength has improved after recovering over the past year. He also has unknown things he retrieved from the Inquisition. The reason he brought the Ark with him was actually to let him take care of Chen Ying, Yu Shishi and the others.

"Good boy, you are also a super-class wizard, so please take care of them. They insist on following me, and there is nothing I can do." Yan said to Ding Yumian. Naturally, she also knew Ding Yumian's true identity from certain channels.

Ding Yumian was a little surprised, but she could feel that the old lady had no ill will towards her, so she nodded and agreed, and together with Fang Zhou, she protected Chen Ying and Yu Shishi.

Two super-class mages, plus the monarch-level totem of the Little Moon Moth Phoenix, taking care of two high-level mages is quite a luxury.

Jiang Feng directly possessed his own mother, and she also improved and became much stronger than the average monarch. It can be seen that Yan's old eyes have become more energetic.

Kunyu Mountain has always been a famous mountain in the local area. To the southwest of Kunyu Mountain is the Outer Kunyu Mountain where demons live.

Inner Kunyu Mountain belongs to Anjie, a relatively well-preserved natural ecological zone protected by all parties. Many rare plants and medicinal trees grow there. Due to the climate, only the medicines from Inner Kunyu Mountain can be used as some special medicines. For example, the very famous bone-xu bottle is produced in Inner Kunyu Mountain.

Yu Shishi has a moth mountain here, and Yan is also considering whether to move to a place closer to Kunyu Mountain.

The group did not rush into the mountains in a hurry. They explored the Inner Kunyu Mountain before reaching the Outer Kunyu Mountain through a valley suspension bridge.
