"You're only a Fifth Rank Great Saint. It's impossible for you to reach the peak and enter the Thousand Spiders Palace. You should give up." Ye Xuan shook his head.
"Who said that? I know a shortcut that leads to the peak," said the girl.
Hearing this, Ye Xuan was slightly surprised and asked, "Then why did you need to fly just now?"
"That's because I was too lazy to walk. I wanted to fly to the shortcut, but I accidentally encountered the Flying Thunder Spiders," said the girl, somewhat ashamed.
Ye Xuan was skeptical of her words.
After all, ordinary people wouldn't dare to fly. Even high-level Great Saints wouldn't dare, let alone a mid-level Great Saint like her.
However, Ye Xuan was very surprised that the girl didn't suffer any injuries after taking the attack of the Flying Thunder Spiders.
"Alright. I saved your life just now. If you bring me to the peak, consider it as returning the favor!" Ye Xuan said to the girl.
This girl was only a Fifth Rank Great Saint, so Ye Xuan wasn't very interested in her.
On the way up, Ye Xuan had killed many Fifth Rank Great Saints, so this wasn't a big deal.
Immediately, he let the young girl out.
"I'm Xiao Gu. What about you?" asked the girl.
"Ye Xuan!"
Replied Ye Xuan.
"Are you also here to learn the Heaven Startling Great Saint's Heaven Startling Staff Technique?" asked Xiao Gu.
In her opinion, Ye Xuan's cultivation level was a bit too low, but his strength was still quite strong. However, in this Thousand Spiders Mountain, even high-level Great Saints would be in danger of dying if they were unlucky.
Faced with this question, Ye Xuan couldn't help but pause. He shook his head and said, "Not entirely."
Even the Divine Monkey Manor's Manor Lord had mastered the Heaven Startling Staff Technique to the level of thirty-six staff strikes. This Heaven Startling Great Saint should have surpassed him. If that was the case, he might be able to guide Potian.
"Not entirely. Could it be that you're looking for the Heaven Startling Great Saint for some other reason?" asked Xiao Gu in surprise.
Ye Xuan wasn't prepared to answer. He directly said, "Lead the way."
"Oh."
Xiao Gu didn't ask any more questions, and turned around to leave.
The shortcut was not far ahead. Xiao Gu quickly led Ye Xuan to it and walked in.
"There are no Holy Beasts in this shortcut," Xiao Gu suddenly said to Ye Xuan with a smile.
Ye Xuan frowned and asked, "How did you find this place?"
If this shortcut was exposed, then others could use this shortcut to reach the peak and find the Heaven Shocking Great Sage to learn the Heaven Shocking Staff Art.
"Naturally, someone told me." Xiao Gu giggled, and continued to lead the way.
Without the Holy Beasts pestering them, Ye Xuan and Xiao Gu were able to travel very quickly. A day later, they came out of the shortcut. After traveling for a while longer, they arrived at the peak of the Thousand Spider Mountain.
At this moment, there were already many people waiting outside the Thousand Spiders Palace.
"What's going on? Why hasn't the Great Sage come out yet?"
"Could he be in seclusion?"
"Let's wait for a while. Something might happen."
A group of high-level Great Sages were discussing softly. There was no lack of Ninth Grade Great Sages among them.
The Great Sage was actually also a Ninth Grade Great Sage. However, his strength was extremely shocking. He relied on the Heaven Shocking Staff Art. Therefore, even Ninth Grade Great Sages wanted to learn it.
However, just as Ye Xuan and Xiao Gu approached, the door of the Thousand Spiders Palace suddenly opened. Then, a young man walked out.
"Sorry for making everyone wait for so long!"
The young man said guiltily. Then, he explained, "I am the disciple of the Great Sage. Unfortunately, my master has gone out recently. Therefore, I ask everyone to wait for a while."
"How long do we have to wait?"
Someone asked.
"This, I am not very sure. My master did not tell me!" The young man shook his head.
"Fine, then we will wait here. There are no Holy Beasts on the peak anyway."
"Let's wait. As long as we can learn the Heaven Shocking Staff Art, it is worth waiting for so many years!"
"Who knows, we might even be able to receive guidance from the Great Sage. This is extremely rare."
The group continued to discuss.
However, Ye Xuan could not help but frown when he heard this.
The Great Sage was not here?
What should he do?
He had come to find the Great Sage to ask about the Celestial Treasure Mountain. Now that the Great Sage was not here, could he only wait for him to return?
However, the disciple of the Great Sage had said that he did not know when the Great Sage would return.
What if it was in years?
At this moment, Xiao Gu, who was beside Ye Xuan, suddenly said, "I know where the Great Sage is."
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Ye Xuan turned his head in surprise and asked, "How do you know?"
"I just communicated with him through voice transmission. The Great Sage went to the White Bone Mountain to look for Madam of Bones!" Xiao Gu replied.
"White Bone Mountain, Madam of Bones?"
Ye Xuan paused for a moment and continued to ask, "Why did he tell you?"
"Do you even need to ask? I know him, so he told me. Not only that, I am also very familiar with the Great Sage," Xiao Gu said with a smile.
"Oh?"
Ye Xuan was shocked again.
This girl in front of him was actually very familiar with the Great Sage. This was beyond his expectations.
However, if what Xiao Gu said was true, then it was normal that she knew the shortcut to the Thousand Spiders Mountain.
Ye Xuan suddenly thought of something and asked, "White Bone Mountain, Madam of Bones. What is your relationship with her?"
"Hmm …"
Xiao Gu was silent for a moment before she finally said slowly, "Madam of Bones is my mother. The Great Sage is my father."
"Parents?"
Hearing this, Ye Xuan could not help but recall that Madam of Bones was also the Great Sage's wife.
"I understand."
Ye Xuan nodded.
"I snuck out to look for my father, but I didn't expect him to go to the White Bone Mountain as well. If you want to look for him, you can come with me," Xiao Gu said.
"Alright, let's go to the White Bone Mountain then!"
Ye Xuan nodded. Then, he led Xiao Gu through the shortcut and returned to the foot of the Thousand Spiders Mountain.
Then, they headed toward the White Bone Mountain.
The White Bone Mountain was a little different from the Thousand Spiders Mountain. The Thousand Spiders Mountain's saint beasts were all spiders, while the White Bone Mountain's saint beasts were all undead creatures.
It was said that the Madam of Bones of the White Bone Mountain was a bone demon. Her original form was a skeleton. This was very rare.
Several days later, Ye Xuan finally arrived at the White Bone Mountain. Since Xiao Gu was the daughter of the Madam of Bones, the rest of the journey should not be too difficult.
Of course, during the journey, Ye Xuan had broken through to the third rank of the Saint level. Even if he had to climb the mountain alone, he was not afraid.
"The White Bone Mountain is my territory. No undead creature dares to touch me. Let's go!"
After saying this, Xiao Gu led Ye Xuan up the mountain.
However, at this moment …
"Rumble!"
Suddenly, the White Bone Mountain shook violently. Countless undead creatures were startled.
"What's going on?"
Ye Xuan and Xiao Gu were surprised. They both looked up and saw two figures suddenly appear on the mountain peak.
