One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

"Among the Eight Extraordinary Skills, there is a divine skill called 'Six Treasuries Immortal Thief'. It is also known as 'Sage Thief'."

Upon hearing this name, Kamo and Ashiya's eyes lit up simultaneously.

"It is said that this extraordinary skill can transform the six internal organs of the human body into perfect phagocytic organs."

Abe Shigeaki's voice trembled slightly with excitement.

"It can plunder all life in the world, including plants, spirits, and even humans!"

"If we can get it, we can stay young forever and live forever!"

"The Six Treasuries Immortal Thief..."

Kamo no Nobuyuki swallowed hard, his thin Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

"But the whereabouts of this extraordinary skill have been unknown in China for decades. How can we find it?"

"Of course you won't find it if you search too hard."

Abe Shigeaki sneered, his withered fingers tapping lightly on the table.

"But don't forget."

There is an old Chinese saying that goes, "The strongest fortress is often breached from within."

He looked up at the withered cherry blossom tree outside the window, a sinister smile creeping onto his lips.

"Back then, when we were retreating from China..."

"It's not that nothing was left behind."

Ashiya Dōgen was taken aback, then realized what was happening and gasped.

"You mean... that nail? He's still alive?!"

"Not only is he alive, but he's climbed very high now."

Abe Shigeaki pulled open the hidden compartment under the low table.

He took out an ancient communication artifact from it.

He stroked the magical artifact, his eyes filled with calculation and ruthlessness.

"We haven't used it all these years, just so it could be used at the most critical moment."

"Now, it's time to wake him up."

Abe Shigeaki placed his palm on the ritual implement and closed his eyes.

"Go."

"Notify 'Kite'."

"At all costs, mobilize all his authority and resources within the company."

"Find me the whereabouts of the Six Treasuries Immortal Thief!"

Chapter 181 Zhang Chulan and the Rabbit's Cross-Species Disco!

At the foot of Changbai Mountain, in that largest agritainment business.

At this moment, it was bustling with activity and filled with lively chatter.

Outside, it was a freezing, snowy landscape with temperatures tens of degrees below zero, and the wind whipped up snow that pounded against the windows.

Inside, the underfloor heating was scorching hot, and the windowpanes were covered with a layer of condensation.

More than a dozen large iron pots were bubbling and gurgling on the earthen stove made of red bricks.

For this victory celebration banquet, the Northeast Immortals brought out all their best treasures.

on the main table.

Zhang Tianyi had long since thrown that stylish coat behind him.

He was wearing a thin black turtleneck sweater with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows.

He was holding a large braised pork bone that was bigger than his face, and he was gnawing on it with his mouth full of oil.

"Hey, Xiaobai."

While dealing with the bone in his hand, Zhang Tianyi nudged Liu Tianxian, who was sitting next to him, with his elbow.

At this moment, Liu Tianxian was dressed entirely as a human woman.

Grandma Guan Shihua specially found her a simple white sweater and long skirt.

Her full head of white hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her features were exquisitely beautiful.

This caused several young shamanic disciples at the next table to steal glances, but they dared not stare for even a second longer, for fear of having their legs broken by their great-grandmother.

However, this ancestor of Changbai Mountain, who has been lying dormant underwater for too long, is clearly not used to such a meal.

She held a small bowl and chopsticks in her hands, looking at the large, churning iron pot in front of her, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she didn't know where to start.

"Don't just look, you can't possibly get full from just smelling it, can you?"

Zhang Tianyi casually picked up a clove of garlic from a plate of peeled garlic cloves next to him and threw it directly into Liu Tianxian's bowl.

"When eating in Northeast China, remember this truth: if you don't eat garlic with meat, it won't be half as flavorful!"

Liu Tianxian looked down at the raw garlic clove in her bowl, then glanced at Zhang Tianyi's unseemly eating.

She curled her lip in disdain: "We dragons... have always only drunk morning dew and eaten spirit fruits..."

Forget it!

Zhang Tianyi interrupted her without any politeness, rolling her eyes dramatically.

"And the Morning Dew Spirit Fruit? Didn't you say your mouth tasted bland when you were at the bottom of the Heavenly Pool?"

"Stop pretending to be a fairy! Hurry up and eat! In this freezing weather, if you don't eat something high in calories, your newly grown scales won't be able to withstand the cold."

Seeing Zhang Tianyi's unyielding, street-smart demeanor, Liu Tianxian hesitated for a moment.

She tentatively picked up a piece of stewed goose meat that was tender and soft, and, imitating Zhang Tianyi, gently took a small bite of raw garlic.

The pungent aroma of garlic instantly fills the nasal cavity, followed by the rich flavor of goose meat exploding on the tip of the tongue.

Liu Tianxian's eyes suddenly lit up.

Her palate, which had been accustomed to abstinence for hundreds of years, was shaken.

"How about that? I wasn't lying to you, was I?" Zhang Tianyi chuckled.

Liu Tianxian didn't say anything, but silently increased the frequency of her chopsticks, yet her eating manners remained refined.

"Cough... This taste is indeed better than the jade dew at the bottom of Tianchi Lake," she muttered softly.

On the other side of the main table, the Old Celestial Master was toasting and exchanging drinks with Guan Shihua and Liu Kunsheng.

The old master was also relaxed today, his face glowing with health.

"Guan girl, stop toasting me. With my limited alcohol tolerance, I'll really have to crawl under the table if I drink any more."

The old celestial master smiled and waved his hand.

Guan Shihua held a large bowl, tears streaming down her face—tears of joy.

"Old Celestial Master, True Man! I'd drink myself to death to offer this cup of wine today!"

"If it weren't for your extraordinary power, our Changbai Mountain would be holding a funeral today! From now on, you two will be honored guests of our Northeast Immortal Clan forever! Anyone who dares to mess with Longhu Mountain is messing with us!"

Liu Kunsheng was even more direct, picking up a large bowl of baijiu, tilting his head back and chugging it down in one go, then wiping his mouth:

"It's all in the wine!"

"Alright, alright, stop getting sentimental."

Zhang Tianyi tossed the gnawed bones into the waste dish, wiped his hands with a tissue, and casually said:

"I just took so many local specialties from you, so it's only right that I do my part."

"As long as you don't think I'm ruthless and heartless and empty your warehouse, that's fine."

"How could that be! It's our good fortune that you've taken a liking to us!" Guan Shihua was overjoyed.

The people at the main table were having a pleasant conversation.

On a table at the other end of the hall.

"Come on! Let's do it!"

"boom!"

A furry rabbit paw and a human hand collided heavily with two glasses.

Zhang Chulan's face was flushed from drinking, three buttons on his shirt were undone, and one leg was propped up on a stool.

Opposite him sat the chubby rabbit named "Xiao Wu".

The rabbit no longer walks upright; instead, it leans casually against the back of the chair.

It had a red napkin tied around its neck, and in front of it were piles of carrot tops and a few chicken bones that it had gnawed on.

These two guys were fighting fiercely in the side room, pulling each other's hair and ears.

After a few bottles of wine, they actually became sworn brothers.

"Brother Wu! Hiccup... I'm truly impressed by you!"

Zhang Chulan, slurring his words, put his arm around the rabbit's shoulder and patted it loudly.

"That series of kicks you delivered earlier, the power and the angle were simply amazing!"

"If I hadn't dodged quickly, I would definitely have had to make an appointment with the orthopedics department!"

Xiao Wu was extremely pleased with the praise, and his long rabbit ears twitched proudly twice.

He raised his glass, his rough Northeastern accent echoing across the table:

"Brother! You're not bad either!"

"For decades, I've been invincible in this gang. But when you unleash your golden light, you're like an iron turtle. I kicked you so hard your legs went numb!"

"We've become friends after this fight! From now on, when you come to the Northeast, Zhang Chulan, just mention my name, Young Master Wu, and I'll protect you!"
