General of the Heavens

Others might not know, but Partridge Whistle and his group were too far away from Ning Chen to notice the strangeness in his eyes.

in short:

His black pupils seemed to split in two like cells dividing, then quickly merged back into one. This process was extremely brief, but it truly happened.

Ning Chen, as the person involved, clearly remembered that his eyes underwent a strange change the moment the ferocious white wolf pounced on him.

Even if Ning Chen were a fraction of a second slower,

They would end up being torn apart by wolves!

In that instant, the sudden change in his pupils made him seem like a completely different person, and a strange power surged within his body.

This power originates from the eyes.

When the white wolf pounced on Ning Chen, at the same time as Ning Chen's pupils split open, a flowing substance flowed out and surged into his limbs and bones, changing his entire being.

Ning Chen didn't understand what it meant.

But it is definitely beyond the scope of science.

And it was that mass of matter that surged into his body, instantly granting him immense strength, heightened senses, and lightning-fast reflexes…

Only comprehensive improvement can save ourselves.

An ordinary person, without special training, would certainly not react so quickly in such a critical situation.

These are things that most people might never achieve in their lifetime, but Ning Chen not only did it, but did it so smoothly that it was absolutely amazing!

The protagonist's halo? Obviously not!

"Golden Eyes!" Ning Chen realized.

When I was claiming the system rewards, I had a chance to draw a lottery ticket, and I won a skill called Golden Eyes.

But after that, he studied it for a long time, and no matter how he summoned or activated it, the Golden Eyes seemed to ignore him.

"I never imagined that I would unintentionally activate my Golden Eyes and save my life today when I was in a life-or-death crisis!"

If the timing weren't wrong, Ning Chen would definitely find a place to thoroughly study the Golden Eyes; it might just become a trump card in the future.

However, while Golden Eyes played a crucial role in this crisis, the old foreigner's precise arrow was also indispensable.

Ning Chen's thoughts were racing, but the old foreigner and the others thought that Ning Chen had not yet recovered, so they hurried over to check on him.

"Is he scared out of his wits?"

Seeing Ning Chen looking completely bewildered, Lao Yangren and Hua Ling were at a loss for what to do.

"Senior brother, come and take a look!" After the old foreigner finished speaking, Partridge Whistle came over upon hearing the voice, and the two of them consciously stepped aside.

"Partridge Whistle? He's definitely aloof!"

The renowned leader of the Mountain Moving Clan, Partridge Whistle, exudes an imposing aura that instills an involuntary tension in those around him.

"Young man, are you alright?"

Coming to his senses, Ning Chen shook his head and thanked them, saying, "It's nothing. Thank you all for saving my life. I am Ning Chen, and I have no way to repay you!"

Only after the crisis was completely over did Ning Chen realize that although the Golden Eyes had saved his life, they also had side effects.

That means he felt weak...

I feel like my body has been hollowed out, I feel uncomfortable...

"It's good that you're alright. Young man, why did you come to this deep mountain forest alone? There are many wild beasts here. You could easily lose your life at any time. More people lose their lives in the forest than they leave!"

Partridge Whistle asked casually.

"Uh, I didn't want to either..."

Ning Chen felt helpless. He wished he could travel to a safe and peaceful place, but unfortunately, the damn system wouldn't allow it.

"Judging from your accents... you're not Miao people, are you?"

Ning Chen tentatively asked, and Partridge Whistle admitted, "That's right, the three of us, my fellow disciples and I, are here to take care of some business. Disguising ourselves as Miao people makes things easier."

"I see. As you just said, the deep mountains and forests are fraught with danger. It's clear that what you've accomplished is no ordinary task!"

Ning Chen said meaningfully.

Partridge Whistle said indifferently, "That's no need for you to worry, young brother. Since you weren't injured because of us, let's part ways here."

"Hey, don't do that..."

Ning Chen immediately panicked. In this freezing weather, if he let Partridge Whistle leave, he would definitely get cold all by himself!

"What else can I do? If I beg and grovel, Partridge Whistle's aloof personality might not even give me a second glance."

Moreover, these three are clearly here to rob tombs, and they would never change their plans because of an outsider like me.

Ning Chen felt a bitter taste in his mouth. Was it going to be this difficult for him at the very beginning? The system must be jealous of him because he had completed the previous system mission so well!

It's just cremating Old Master Ren directly, isn't it? To be honest, he regrets it too. At least he could have bought some amulets from Uncle Jiu.

However, despite thinking this way, Ning Chen knew that his most important task now was to persuade Partridge Whistle to take him out of the forest.

So what conditions could move him?

"The Muchen Pearl!" Ning Chen's lips curled up slightly. In this world, no one knew the location of the Muchen Pearl better than himself.

The most vital resource of the Mountain Moving Taoists is the Muchen Pearl. If they can complete this project in Partridge Whistle's generation after more than two thousand years of effort, even the resilient Partridge Whistle will be extremely excited.

However, if Ning Chen directly revealed the information about the Muchen Pearl, he estimated that, given Partridge Whistle's ruthless nature, he would definitely be arrested and then severely punished with candles, whips, and the like.

He didn't care what kind of transmigrator he was. Everyone in the bandit world knew that Partridge Whistle's two mirrored boxes had killed countless people, and his murderous aura could stop children from crying at night!

"I can't bring bad luck!" Ning Chen thought to himself.

If you want to negotiate terms, you need to have an equal status. The only ones who can be compared with the Mountain Moving Taoist are the Tomb Raider General, the Tomb Raider Captain, and the Ridge Unloading Warrior.

As luck would have it, Ning Chen had a Tomb Raider Seal that was even more authentic than the original, which could prove his identity.

"It seems the system's built-in features aren't perfect. Dad was just in a hurry and misunderstood you. Please don't take it to heart."

The poor system almost got blamed...

Having gained leverage in negotiations, the tomb raiding industry still has its own established ways of speaking, namely various slang terms, secret codes, and mountain incantations.

"Let me think about how the original slang was said... Miss, please add a cup? No, wait! Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger? That sounds like something bandits would say. Oh, I've got it!"

Ning Chen was very glad that he had been interested in these slang terms when he read the novel and had casually memorized some of them.

Ning Chen only knew a little about the secrets of tomb raiding, and if he said too much, he would definitely give himself away, so he said a few words to fool Partridge Whistle first, and then went straight to the point and showed the tomb raiding seal.

This is almost certainly going to work out!

Still feeling uneasy, Ning Chen mentally rehearsed the scene a few more times. Just as the three were about to leave, Ning Chen called out from behind, "Gentlemen, wait!"
