System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

At this moment, the Qilin inside his shoulder was desperately trying to burrow out, which caused Zhang Hao to feel a burning pain.

"Could this be a Qilin that has taken human form through bloodline transformation?"

Zhang Hao wasn't sure either; he hadn't noticed it before today, and he wouldn't have noticed it if it weren't for the burning sensation.

He carefully compared the appearance of the Qilin, which seemed to be different from the Qilin tattoo on Zhang Qilin's shoulder.

The Qilin inside the flesh and blood looks even more majestic.

"Jingle Bell……"

At this time, the cell phone rang.

Zhang Hao put on his clothes, took out his phone from his pocket, and saw an unfamiliar foreign number.

He was just about to hang up when he suddenly remembered that Yi Sa should be in Southeast Asia investigating information about the Mountain Spirit.

So the call was connected.

"Zhang Hao, answer the phone."

"?"

"I called you several times but no one answered."

Zhang Hao glanced at his phone screen and saw that there were indeed several missed calls.

"Is there something you need that's so urgent?"

"I have investigated and found out that the Mountain Spirit's base is in Furong Town at the foot of Yunmeng Mountain in western Hunan."

"Isn't that a tourist area? Why did they set up their base there?"

"Do you think the mountain spirit or the tourist area came first?"

Zhang Hao smiled; Yi Sa's words were quite something.

Mountain spirits, like water spirits, have existed for thousands of years. Naturally, they came first, but they never imagined that their settlement would one day become a tourist attraction.

However, it's not so simple to move away a heritage that has been passed down for thousands of years.

This must be what they mean by "the truly wise live in seclusion in the city."

Zhang Hao originally planned to wait until he finished his work here before going to Southeast Asia to meet up with Yi Sa and also to do some large-scale beast fusion.

It seems this matter has to be postponed; the priority is to go to western Hunan and seek help from the mountain spirit.

In the two days that Yi Sa returned to China, Zhang Hao had already bought plane tickets for the group.

This also includes Zhang Qilin's.

Zhang Hao only sent him a message, but unexpectedly Zhang Qilin said he was in Hangzhou, so he bought his plane ticket at the same time.

Yi Sa and Ding Yudie flew directly to Hangzhou. Neither of them left the airport. After meeting up with Zhang Hao, Wu Tianzhen, and Zhang Qilin, they boarded a plane to Shacheng.

As for Fatty, he took off directly from Beijing and met up with Zhang Hao and the others at Shacheng Airport.

Sand City is famous in the world of tomb raiding. The Blood Corpse Tomb, the Ancient Mine Tomb, and the Old Nine Gates are all located in Sand City.

Although the Wu family moved to Hangzhou, they still wielded considerable influence in Shacheng.

Zhang Hao and his group met up with Fatty in Shacheng Jicheng. Pan Zi greeted them as soon as they exited the airport.

He drove an MPV and waited at the airport exit.

As soon as Zhang Hao came out, he saw the fat man: "Hey guys, long time no see!"

"Panzi, thank you for your hard work."

"What hardship am I experiencing? It's only right that I do things for you. It's getting late, let's go have dinner first, rest in Shacheng for the night, and then set off for Xiangxi tomorrow morning."

“No problem, it’s perfect to go back to the ancestral home for one night. When I was a child, I would come back every summer vacation for a while, but after my grandfather passed away, I came less often.”

“I knew you would think that way, so I arranged for you to stay at the Wu family’s ancestral home today.”

……

While catching up, Pan Zi helped Zhang Hao and the others load their things into the car. Then, he jogged around from the back of the car to the front, got into the driver's seat, and drove the car out of the airport.

He first drove to the restaurant, and only after the meal did he drive the person to the Wu family's ancestral home.

This is a group of three-story buildings located in the city center, with a courtyard of several thousand square meters. One side faces the Xiangjiang River, while the other side is backed by skyscrapers.

You can see the tallest building in Hunan Province from the courtyard.

Such a location and such an area, if not inherited from ancestors, would be impossible to buy even with money in modern times.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you second-generation thieves are really rich. I, Fatty, could never earn this kind of property even if I stole for several lifetimes!"

"Fatty, don't underestimate yourself. Those houses in Panjiayuan in Beijing must be worth at least several hundred million!"

"How can that compare to your Wu family ancestral home? It's far inferior. Living here, you can sit in the courtyard after dinner, enjoying the river breeze and watching the sunset. It's so pleasant."

"That's true, but compared to my uncle's ancestral home, my Wu family's ancestral home is nothing."

"Really? Just how luxurious is the Zhang family's ancestral home? Even the Wu family's house can't compare?"

Zhang Hao smiled. He now knew that the Zhang family he belonged to was a branch of the Zhang family in Northeast China.

Even though it's just a branch, the family he belongs to still has a very rich heritage.

At the foot of Qiyun Mountain, there is a large area of ​​buildings that belong to the Zhang family. Although they are a bit dilapidated now, they are still far superior to those of ordinary families.

As they were talking, everyone went inside, and several servants immediately came out to greet them and arrange their accommodations.

After everyone was settled, we went to rest early.

In the middle of the night, Zhang Hao vaguely noticed a dark shadow flash past the window.

He got out of bed and immediately chased after him.

As Zhang Hao chased after the figure, he emitted a peculiar sound wave in the direction the shadowy figure fled.

Soon the image of the shadowy figure appeared in his mind.

"devil?"

Although the shadowy figure looked just like a person from the Great Xia Kingdom, Zhang Hao could still tell that he was a Japanese soldier.

The deformities in the legs of the Japanese soldiers caused by kneeling on the ground for so long could not be concealed.

Although the person's leg deformity was not obvious, it was still impossible for him to hide from the sound wave localization function.

What were the Japanese soldiers doing infiltrating the Wu family's residence?

Zhang Hao concealed himself in the darkness, silently following the shadowy figure to see what he was up to.

The Japanese soldier seemed very familiar with the Wu family's ancestral home; he went straight to the garden in the backyard.

They disappeared after going around behind the artificial hill.

Zhang Hao emitted sound waves forward to use sound wave positioning.

Soon, the situation within a radius of several hundred meters appeared in his mind.

There's a mechanism under the artificial hill that hides a staircase leading underground.

There is a stone door at the end of the stairs.

At this moment, the Japanese soldier was hesitating in front of the stone gate. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to want to open the stone gate to go in, but he couldn't open it no matter what he did.

There is a stone door in such a secluded place. Behind the door is most likely the Wu family's treasure vault, where valuable or important things are stored.

The Japanese soldiers had no reason to take such a big risk for money; there must be something very important that they absolutely had to get.

In recent years, the Wu family has had no connection with the Japanese at all.

If we go back further, that would be the era of the Nine Gates.

The Wu family, together with the other members of the Nine Gates, wiped out the Shacheng branch of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce.

At that time, the Japanese Chamber of Commerce was probably an intelligence agency in China, and it may have contained information that was very important to them.

The Wu family obtained that item and hid it in their treasure vault.

Of course, these are just guesses, and Zhang Hao is guarding the entrance.

The Japanese soldiers retreated after failing to open the treasure vault door. As soon as he came out of the passage, two green lights shot into his eyes.

Instantly, her eyes became glazed over.

"Who are you, and what brings you to the Wu family?"
