Snatching the tooth from the tiger’s mouth, this is snatching the tooth from the tiger’s mouth!
As Yang Zhen absorbed the heritage text from the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin, he mused to himself that a super handsome guy like him who dared to play tricks in front of a Half-step Great Saint was probably unique in this world.
At this moment, Valley Granny gave Yang Zhen a playful look and chuckled, “Youngster, can you recognize the text on this?”
Yang Zhen shook his head in bewilderment, prompting a cold snort from Valley Granny who remarked, “Fishing for fame!”
With that, Valley Granny began to walk towards the prohibition on the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin under the astonished gazes of the Practitioners.
Seeing this, Huo Lian urgently cautioned, “Valley Granny, be careful. This restriction is quite troublesome, once tainted by it, it’s quite difficult to extricate oneself.”
Even the Half-step Great Saint was so wary of the restrictions on the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin that the people around them changed their expressions dramatically and hurriedly stepped back, not daring to get so close again.
What a joke, this was the Half-step Great Saint. How terrifying must a prohibition be that even he found difficult to escape from?
Although everyone was gathered here, not a single person dared to attempt to break this type of restriction lightly.
On the one hand, the Half-step Great Saint was on watch, not allowing anyone to step even half a step forward, and on the other, who among the crowd would dare to try their hand at a restriction that even the Half-step Great Saint couldn’t break?
So although it was said that this prohibition was very terrifying, none of the people present had experienced just how terrifying it was.
Now that they saw Valley Granny finally approaching the restriction, their hearts leapt with fear, and they also became tense.
Upon hearing Elder Huo Lian’s words, Valley Granny chuckled lightly, “It’s fine. I do recognize a few ancient Ale Clan characters. Let us first see how these restrictions are arranged. If we can find an end, we can think of a way to break the restrictions here.”
Everyone gasped, their eyes all falling on Valley Granny.
Even the wretched cat sidled up to Yang Zhen and asked, “Kid, do you have any confidence at all? This old fellow seems quite confident. If she really breaks it, with so many people here, the first one to die would be you, and then it would be my turn and the little Taoist’s.”
At this point, the wretched cat grumbled, continuing, “Of course, with my tough hide, I might be the last to die. But to be the last to die is still to die. I am still young; I don’t want to die just like that.”
Yang Zhen staggered, barely resisting the urge to slap the cat. What a bastard, always talking about death; how unpleasant?
Valley Granny seemed to hear the wretched cat’s words and looked back at Yang Zhen with a mysterious smile creasing her wrinkled face, making Yang Zhen’s scalp tingle. In a low voice, he murmured, “Keep it down, don’t disturb the senior’s study of the prohibitions.”
Hearing this, Valley Granny laughed softly again and slowly squatted down in front of the restriction.
Instantly, everyone on the Nine Dragons Sparrow Platform held their breath and stared intensely at Valley Granny, not even daring to breathe too loudly.
Even Huo Lian and a few others looked at Valley Granny with solemn faces. As the person in the Great Nether Dynasty most knowledgeable about ancient heritage, if even she couldn’t break the restriction here, then everyone would have to wait for other Half-step Great Saints to arrive to discuss forcing their way through together.
Yang Zhen, curious, watched Valley Granny squatting on the ground, muttering to herself, uttering words with an odd look on her face.
With more and more characters lighting up, voices in Yang Zhen’s head picked up speed as well, and after a succession of pronunciations, even someone with his terrifying talent felt overwhelmed.
After all, mastering a foreign language is not an easy feat.
Luckily, Yang Zhen didn’t need to read all the characters here; simply recognizing them was enough. During this time, Yang Zhen, who had been nearly unnoticed, concentrated hard and remembered almost ninety percent of the pronunciations. Suddenly, his head buzzed as if it had been invaded by some mysterious force, causing an excruciating headache that made him want to scratch his head.
Just then, Valley Granny suddenly stood up, laughing loudly, “So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is…”
At these words, everyone’s hearts tightened, and their faces revealed shocked expressions.
Even the three Half-step Great Saints, including Huo Lian, showed expressions of joy, for it was apparent that Valley Granny had discovered something. This was a positive development; perhaps with just her power alone, she would be able to unlock the prohibition.
Among the crowd, the three Half-step Great Saints who currently held the most authority were watching closely. Of them, Elder Huo Lian, known for his fiery temper, quickly asked, “Valley Granny, what have you noticed?”
After laughing for a while, Valley Granny glanced at Yang Zhen and said, “It’s always been said that the Nine Dragons predecessor was a talented and powerful figure. Now it seems that such rumors are true. These prohibitions are comprised of ancient Ale Clan characters, formed by the pervasive energy of heaven and earth.”
Hearing this, Yang Zhen was so irritated he nearly rushed up to slap the back of Valley Granny’s head.

This old fellow squatted on the ground and studied for half a day, and this is all he figured out?
How disappointing!
Yang Zhen sighed and subtly shook his head in dissatisfaction, utterly disappointed.
However, Valley Granny’s face was full of excitement as she continued, “Give me some time, and I will surely unravel all the prohibitions here. Obtaining the inheritance of the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin will then be a piece of cake.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around took a sharp intake of breath, their faces lighting up with wild joy.
Give time, give you lots of time. Just hurry up and decipher it.
But not too quickly, it would be best to wait until the other Half-step Great Saints arrive before breaking the prohibitions. That way, we all stand a chance.
Only with all the sect’s powers present can we muddy the waters. Otherwise, the Great Nether Dynasty alone will unravel the secrets of the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin, leaving the rest with no hope of even a taste.
Huo Lian and others certainly showed ecstatic expressions, but then they frowned deeply and asked Valley Granny, “How long do you need?”
Valley Granny shook her head, “I’m not sure, these prohibitions are incredibly complex. They appear to be chaotically arranged, yet they subtly conform to the principles of music and rhythm, it’s like…it’s like…”
At this point, Valley Granny’s face took on a serious expression. She hesitated, as if unsure how to describe it further.
At once, everyone’s faces tightened with tension.
Whether Valley Granny could pinpoint the crucial aspects was key to when the prohibitions could be lifted, and even if they could be lifted at all, the crowd yearned to not wait for other Half-step Great Saints to arrive before doing so. The tension centered on whether Valley Granny could indeed decipher the prohibitions.
Watching the hesitation on Valley Granny’s face, everyone’s hearts began to tighten, and they couldn’t help but wish they could crack open her mind to let her thoughts take flight!
At this moment, Yang Zhen suddenly popped his head out, tentatively suggesting to Valley Granny, “Like… the poetry of mortals?”
Upon hearing this, a terrifying surge erupted from Valley Granny, startling the crowd.
The next moment, Valley Granny whirled around, laughed heartily at Yang Zhen, and said, “Exactly, the poetry of mortals, yes, that’s it. The Nine Dragons ancestor was extremely talented, his literary talent reached the heavens. It was said that the literary inscriptions upon him could conceal the sky and shake the earth, commanding utmost reverence. These prohibitions must be the same, to think of such a brilliant method of array setting, truly a remarkable individual.”
Yang Zhen nodded modestly and ventured, “Perhaps… Valley Granny might try reading the text aloud, the genius combined with the rhythm, I am very curious about what kind of resonance it may evoke between heaven and earth.”
Ahem!
Valley Granny looked deeply at Yang Zhen, the murderous intent in her eyes gradually dissipating, but she still kept a wary eye on him and huffed, “Don’t sweet-talk me, but there’s no harm in me giving it a try.”
Then, Valley Granny’s face grew solemn as she stared at the text of the prohibitions, muttering to herself in wonder, “Strange, there seems to be something odd about this.”
Huo Lian, somewhat impatiently, said, “Valley Granny, what’s so peculiar? Just read it out for us all to hear.”
Valley Granny glanced at Huo Lian, cleared her throat, and began to recite with cadence, “The dark stones herald the green of spring…”
“Wonderful poetry!”
Yang Zhen exclaimed loudly, clapping his hands vigorously, causing everyone to stare at him in bewilderment and dissatisfaction.
“Dark plums emit a hidden fragrance, lying branches caress the mid-heaven, fish kiss the lying stones in the water, the lying stones respond to the green of spring… Hm, this is a poem depicting spring.”
Pfft!
The disdainful cat spat out its saliva, its face filled with confusion as it murmured while looking at Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin, “Damn it, did Nine Dragons and Yang Xiaozi come from the same village? This isn’t a poem describing spring, it’s obviously a poem cursing people, Yang Xiaozi mentioned it to me before.”
“What?” Valley Granny huffed coldly and scolded, “You uncultured thing, how is this a poem that curses people?”
“Why don’t you read it faster and see?” the disdainful cat retorted with a sneer.
On the side, Yang Zhen was almost holding back his tears.
