The Darknorth Immortal Mountain opened once every ten years. Right now, it has already been ten years since the last time Qin Wentian opened the Darknorth Immortal Mountain. Another batch of experts entered the Darknorth Immortal Mountain and this time around, the person in charge was still Beiming Nongyue.
The examination has already ended and the experts all entered the mountain. Li Yufeng still didn't leave. This time around, he entered together with Beiming Nongyue.
In the immortal mountain, on another ancient peak, a strange scene could be seen, attracting the attention of countless cultivators.
So it turned out that over there, there was a maiden that was as beautiful as a poem and as beautiful as a painting. She was currently seated on the ground, playing her zither, creating a marvelous scene. The sound of the zither seemed to be alive, drifting along with the wind. In the air, numerous paintings actually appeared, using the sound of the zither as a brush. This was simply shocking.
"It's rumored that this maiden is named Zhiyin and is proficient in music. Her thoughts are clear and her comprehension abilities are extraordinary. Ten years ago, she entered here and obtained her dao." Some of the spectators spoke, feeling shocked in their hearts. In their eyes, Zhiyin had become a legendary character.
Sometimes, ten years was enough to create a legend.
"The Darknorth Immortal Mountain is a mountain of laws, allowing people to gain insights. However, how difficult is it to break through to the immortal king realm? Although one would have a 10% chance of breaking through here, the number of people who could truly break through to the immortal king realm is extremely few. Since Fairy Zhiyin could have such good fortune, she must be extraordinary. She herself has an extremely high comprehension abilities and it's said that after she entered the mountain, she has always been here painting and playing her zither, not moving at all. She should have left after three years but Princess Nongyue couldn't bear to let her leave."
"Princess Nongyue is there. She seems to be very concerned about Fairy Zhiyin." Someone turned his gaze to Beiming Nongyue. This time around, she entered the immortal mountain together with Li Yufeng. The two of them stood together, staring at Zhiyin as they sighed in their hearts.
"Miss Zhiyin is truly extraordinary." Beiming Nongyue spoke in a light voice.
"Yeah, who would have thought that she would be the one to break through to the immortal king realm. This is truly unexpected. Brother Qin's friends are truly extraordinary." Li Yufeng smiled. "I haven't found Brother Qin yet, I wonder how he is now."
"He should have entered the forbidden ground. He is truly capable of doing such a thing. His personality can be seen from his time in Tiandao Sacred Academy."
"Is the forbidden grounds really that dangerous?" Li Yufeng asked.
"That's right, saying that there's a 90% chance of dying is an underestimation of how dangerous the forbidden ground is." Beiming Nongyue was the princess of the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom, she naturally had a clearer understanding of the dangers of the forbidden ground.
"That fellow's luck is extremely good. Let's hope he's fine. If not, the immortal realms would lose a character that could affect the entire situation." Li Yufeng faintly spoke.
"Your evaluation is truly high." Beiming Nongyue glanced at Li Yufeng.
"I've always been the one to surpass others and leave them behind. He was able to catch up to me and surpass me. If he doesn't deserve this evaluation, doesn't that mean I'm admitting that my future achievements are limited?" Li Yufeng hugged Beiming Nongyue's waist as he spoke, "If that's the case, why should I marry you?"
"So you are praising yourself." Beiming Nongyue laughed. "When do you plan to return?"
"Why should I go back?" Li Yufeng asked.
"What do you want to do?" Beiming Nongyue smiled as she stared at Li Yufeng.
"Cultivate well and break through to the immortal king realm as soon as possible, bringing a princess wife back to the Hundred Refinements Sect. I'm sure you would have some face then." Li Yufeng joked, his words causing Beiming Nongyue to glare at him.
"Nongyue, you are a princess of the dynasty and should be very familiar with the forbidden ground. Do you know the situation inside?" Li Yufeng seriously asked.
"I know a little. It's said that the place is filled with danger and ordinary immortal kings would all die if they entered. Even immortal emperors have no way to explore the secrets within. You should be very clear about this. Also, that fellow Qin Wentian is only at the immortal-foundation realm." Beiming Nongyue was a little worried. Qin Wentian was too impulsive.
"Has anyone from your dynasty entered before?" Li Yufeng asked again.
"There are quite a few. In addition, I know of one person who truly entered and exited the forbidden ground." Beiming Nongyue stared at Li Yufeng.
"Who?" Li Yufeng had a look of curiosity on his face.
"My elder sister." Beiming Nongyue replied.
...
At this moment, Qin Wentian was still working hard in his cultivation. He established his first law domain and after that, he stopped. Law domains are different from constellations. Law domains can be improved endlessly. As long as you have enough formless energy, you can change your law domain at any time, causing it to grow stronger.
Hence, there was no need for him to continue immersing himself in it. He temporarily reached a bottleneck and gave up.
For the next few years, he started to cultivate everything the old undying freak left behind for him. Among them, there was a set of saber arts that contained tyrannical destructive might. If one cultivated it to the extreme, they could even slay gods and devils.
There was also a set of movement techniques that were boundlessly marvelous, capable of countless transformations. Even if one didn't cultivate wind-attribute law energy, they would still possess terrifying transformations. This movement technique was actually comprehended from the body of the Divine Roc King and was similar to the energy Qin Wentian cultivated before. However, it was much stronger and was extremely suitable for him to cultivate.
There was a divine weapon that emanated a terrifying aura. The first time Qin Wentian touched it, he instantly tossed it away. At the instant he touched it, he felt as though his soul was being slashed apart. His entire person turned numb and he had no way to control his body. From then on, he didn't dare to touch that divine weapon again.
At this moment, Qin Wentian stared at the divine weapon in front of him. It was a cudgel and although its strength was shocking, it looked extremely ordinary.
"The old undying freak tossed it here because he wanted me to pick it up. If I can't do it, I'm afraid …" Qin Wentian felt his heart trembling when he thought of the old undying freak's strength. That fellow was simply too powerful. Who knows, he might even be secretly watching him from a corner.
"Let me try again." Qin Wentian gritted his teeth. He walked forward and grabbed hold of the cudgel. In just an instant, that terrifying energy blasted into his soul with lightning speed, causing him to lose control of his body. His soul was under attack, it was extremely terrifying to the extreme.
"No, I can't throw it away." Qin Wentian's countenance turned incredibly unsightly. He could no longer control his hands and could only hold onto the cudgel. That terrifying energy frenziedly attacked his soul and this was the first time he felt his soul trembling. It was too terrifying, it felt as though his soul was about to be separated from his body. At this instant, Qin Wentian felt as though his soul was about to scatter. Was this old undying freak trying to kill him?
At this moment, the figure of the old undying freak appeared before Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian's eyes flashed with a pleading expression but the old undying freak ignored him and directly sat down before him. Qin Wentian's eyes widened as his body trembled uncontrollably. That old undying freak was truly watching the show.
"You don't know this, but this cudgel is a supreme treasure that's extremely rare in the immortal realms. Using it on you is simply a waste of a heavenly treasure." The old undying freak spoke to Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian felt an impulse to kill the old undying freak. Didn't the old undying freak know that Qin Wentian wasn't in the mood to listen to him?
"Don't look at me like this. It's already a miracle that you are able to survive until now. I don't even know why I allowed you to come in here and even allowed you to cultivate. To tell you the truth, I've been here for countless years and you are the second person who came here. The first time, it was a beautiful lass who I found very pleasing to the eye. I couldn't bear to see her die in here. She lived up to my expectations and eventually, I sent her out."
Qin Wentian's body was still trembling. How would he care about who came here before? This old undying freak used a divine weapon to scheme against him.
In addition, could it be that this old undying freak had been alone for too long and had the desire to talk?
However, why did he continue to stay here and not exit?
Given the strength of this old undying freak, he should be able to dominate the immortal realms unhindered.
"Endure a little longer. When you truly feel it, I will help you again." The old undying freak spoke. Qin Wentian was in complete despair, he knew that this old undying freak wouldn't help him at all. After enduring such a terrifying attack, Qin Wentian could actually gradually sense the existence of his own soul.
The soul was an extremely wondrous thing, it complemented the fleshly body. Both were indispensable. For stellar martial cultivators, the vast majority of their cultivation arts and innate techniques were focused on the fleshly body. There weren't many who focused on cultivating their souls. However, if one encountered a powerful soul cultivator, it would be extremely dangerous. Naturally, because they lacked the means to cultivate their souls, such powerful cultivators were extremely rare.
Qin Wentian had never cultivated his soul before. At this moment, he could only passively endure the attack. Luckily, this attack wouldn't directly destroy his soul or he would really die.
After enduring for a long time, Qin Wentian was on the verge of collapse. The old undying freak was still speaking, "In the current world, the souls of cultivators are actually so weak. This is simply incomprehensible. If you were in my era, people like you wouldn't even know how you died. Indeed, the world has changed, the number of worlds has increased, and the number of living beings has increased. However, each generation is weaker than the previous one. Or to put it more accurately, the experts are no longer here."
"..." Qin Wentian felt that he had no way to endure this.
"But luckily, you met me. If you couldn't endure it, even if you died here, there would be no meaning to your cultivation. You would be killed by others sooner or later. You are lucky." The old undying freak was still speaking. Qin Wentian could sense that his weak soul was about to separate from his fleshly body.
"Seems like it's about time. Feel it well." The old undying freak glanced at Qin Wentian. After that, his eyes abruptly gleamed with a dazzling light.
"GET OUT!"
A shout rang out. Qin Wentian's soul trembled as he felt despair. After that, he discovered that he was floating in the air. Something's wrong, his body was still standing on the ground, unmoving.
"This …" Qin Wentian felt his guts shattering. His eyes were filled with despair. His soul was separated from his fleshly body?
The old undying freak glanced at Qin Wentian. After that, he spoke in a low voice, "You still have some potential."
"RETURN!" Another shout rang out. Qin Wentian's soul returned to his body. The divine weapon in his hand was taken away and tossed at his feet. His entire body was trembling uncontrollably as white foam gushed out of his mouth. He had experienced a truly terrifying experience.
His eyes stared at the old man before him. What kind of terrifying existence was this old undying freak exactly?
"Back then that lass obtained the Undying Scripture from me. I shall give you the Undying Scripture then." The old man spoke in a low voice. After that, he stretched out his finger and tapped Qin Wentian's head. In an instant, Qin Wentian's entire body trembled as his soul shuddered. After that, he directly fainted.
"Ai, how useless." The old man shook his head. "When you are able to wield this divine weapon, I will let you out."
