This ten thousand meter tall giant was undoubtedly the Driftsnow Master.
The Driftsnow Master's physique was already ten thousand meters tall and was a legendary character. It was unknown how terrifying his cultivation base was.
When Qin Wentian heard Pei Yu narrating the legends of the Driftsnow Master, although he believed in the love of time, as well as the obsession of Immortal Jade, he still had some suspicions about the Driftsnow Master using his body to forge the city, fusing his soul with the Nine Immortality Bells. But after seeing the gigantic body of the Driftsnow Master inside the Nine Immortality Bells, his suspicions vanished. The cultivation base of the Driftsnow Master might be extremely high, surpassing the immortal-foundation realm. For a character like the Driftsnow Master, it was only normal for him to do such shocking things.
Qin Wentian slowly opened his eyes, yet his gaze was still staring at the Nine Immortality Bells in a daze. Runic light radiated from the Nine Immortality Bells, and within it, there was a type of law energy that could activate the Nine Immortality Bells, probing the secrets within. However, no matter which law energy it was, they all seemed to be lacking something.
"Tianwen." At this moment, Cheron walked over. He stared at Qin Wentian as he asked, "What did you see in the Nine Immortality Bells?"
Qin Wentian stared at Cheron as he shook his head, "It's just that it's a little clearer. I only saw a single person, the Driftsnow Master. This should be the scene after Immortal Jade's death. The Driftsnow Master lived a lonely life, staring at the drifting snow in a daze. Most probably, he was thinking about her. Immortal Jade's obsession with weaponsmithing far surpassed her love for him, but the Driftsnow Master was a man of emotions."
Given the Driftsnow Master's strength and handsome countenance, if he wanted women, no matter how vast the world was, there would be countless beauties willing to send themselves to him. However, he was willing to pay the price with his life for Immortal Jade.
"Driftsnow Master, I really want to see him personally." Pei Yu mumbled, staring at Qin Wentian with envy. This fellow actually saw the Driftsnow Master, that legendary character. What did he look like exactly?
"The Driftsnow Master is a magnificent character. I also hope that the people of the Driftsnow City would be able to witness his magnificence." Qin Wentian spoke. If the Driftsnow Master appeared in the current Driftsnow City, the fame of the Driftsnow City would surely soar, becoming the most famous city in the Jiangling Country, even surpassing the Jiangling King City.
At this moment, there were already many experts gathered in this area, all of them attempting to communicate with the Nine Immortality Bell. Although there were already many who managed to establish a connection with the bell, none of them were like Qin Wentian, causing the Nine Immortality Bell to emit a humming sound. As for whether there were others who were able to peer into the situation within the Nine Immortality Bell, it was unknown.
At that moment, rays of celestial light seemed to shine in the sky, causing countless people to raise their heads and look at the sky. Their expressions trembled slightly.
"It's all immortal-foundation experts. Without exception, all of them are immortal-foundation characters. Seems like the immortal-foundation experts from the various major powers have all arrived." The hearts of the spectators mused. Before this, only a portion of the experts had arrived. Right now, the major powers of the Cloud Prefecture should be arriving one after another.
"Pass down the decree of the Jiangling King. Three days later, the Nine Immortality Bell will forbid anyone from entering. There will be geniuses forging weapons by the bell, causing it to chime. For those who have no way to communicate with the Nine Immortality Bell, they are not allowed to remain here. They are only allowed to spectate from outside the range of the runic light." At this moment, a clear voice rang out, echoing throughout the entire region. Those within the range of the Nine Immortality Bell, as well as the experts, all heard it.
"Are the geniuses starting to forge weapons before the Nine Immortality Bell?" Pei Yu murmured. Qin Wentian stared at her as he asked, "Why do we need to forge weapons?"
"This is also related to the rumors about the Nine Immortality Bell. The main soul of the Driftsnow Master merged with the Nine Immortality Bell because he and Immortal Jade's obsession was weaponsmithing. Hence, when the spirit of the Nine Immortality Bell manifests, they would need to communicate with it during the forging process to obtain a strand of immortal spirit from it. From there, they would be able to unravel the boundless mysteries of the Nine Immortality Bell.
Pei Yu slowly explained, "As the saying goes, the Nine Immortality Bell doesn't ask about immortals. But for those who aren't immortals, once they connect with the Nine Immortality Bell, they would have a chance to ascend to immortality in a single step. This rumor has been circulating around the Driftsnow City, and is one of the unsolved mysteries of the Jiangling Country."
"Can one really ascend to immortality in a single step?" Qin Wentian silently shook his head. Cultivation was a step by step process, when the conditions were right, success would follow naturally. This was the law of the heavens and earth, it was impossible to surpass it.
Ascending to immortality in a single step violated the law of cultivation? Qin Wentian naturally didn't believe it.
However, even if he didn't believe it, since there was such a rumor, there must be some other meaning behind it. It was just that no one knew about it and hence, it was misunderstood by others.
"There are still three more days. I'll go communicate with the next Nine Immortality Bell first." Qin Wentian spoke. After that, he stood up. Cheron, Mu Yan and the others followed suit. During these days, they had been following beside Qin Wentian. Firstly, it was to prevent those experts from acting against Qin Wentian. Secondly, they wanted to see how far Qin Wentian could go and whether he could communicate with all nine Nine Immortality Bells.
If there was a chance to unravel the secret of the Nine Immortality Bells, the person who unraveled it would undoubtedly be Qin Wentian.
The atmosphere around the Nine Immortality Bells grew more and more lively. From time to time, experts from the various major powers would gather, and immortal-foundation experts could be seen everywhere. Immortal light flashed, incomparably dazzling.
Three days passed by in the blink of an eye.
There were a total of nine Nine Immortality Bells and in the center of the Nine Immortality Bells, there was a vast public square. At this moment, the Jiangling King of the Jiangling Country arrived here. He brought along his immortal-foundation troops and for a period of time, a terrifying might swept out in all directions, causing everyone in this space to feel a faint sense of pressure.
"Everyone, the spirit of the Nine Immortality Bells has manifested even more clearly this time around. This time around, whether or not we can unravel the secret of the Nine Immortality Bells would depend on the outstanding geniuses here." Pei Tianyuan stood in the air as he spoke, his voice echoing out in all directions.
"For those who have nothing to do with this, you can retreat now. Leave the region of the Nine Immortality Bells." Pei Tianyuan spoke again. After that, many people reluctantly retreated, leaving the region of the Nine Immortality Bells.
At the same time, there were experts from the major powers in each of the nine Immortality Bells, exuding a terrifying aura. The elites of the major powers were all here.
As for the immortal-foundation experts from the various powers, they stood in the air above the central region. Their gazes were sharp, sweeping through the vicinity of the Nine Immortality Bells. Every single location was clearly imprinted in their vision. The people of the various powers could also see them.
Right now, Qin Wentian was already in front of the eighth Nine Immortality Bells. He inclined his head and stared at the sky as his countenance gleamed with sharpness. He only saw beams of cold light shooting towards him. Despite the distance, he could still feel the coldness and killing intent radiating from those beams of light.
The person who shot his gaze over was none other than Zurius, a heaven chosen from the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor, Zurius. Back then when he left, he was filled with reluctance in his heart. Now that he was standing among the experts of the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor, he was even more extraordinary.
Beside Zurius, there was another person who similarly stared in the direction of Qin Wentian as he asked, "Is this man the one who could borrow the power of runic inscriptions to defeat you all?"
Zurius's sword-like brows twitched, as though he was unhappy. He coldly replied, "Yes, it's him. His attainments in the dao of runes are exceedingly high and he can borrow the power of runic inscriptions to do battle."
"Okay, let's head to the Nine Immortality Bells then." The person who spoke spoke, his words causing Zurius's countenance to flicker. He shook his head, "The chances of us going there are very slim. It's not suitable."
"If you don't want to go, I will." That person who spoke stepped out, moving towards the Nine Immortality Bells where Qin Wentian was at. The experts from the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor stared at Zurius. One of the elders spoke, "Zurius, why do I feel that during your trip to the Driftsnow City, your sharpness seems to have lessened? You even have trepidation in your heart when facing third-level ascendants."
"Senior uncle, just watch. This man will definitely cause a storm. It's best to keep a close eye on him. If he manages to unravel the secret within the Nine Immortality Bells, the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor would be the first to control him." Zurius spoke. However, many people from the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor didn't seem to mind.
Zurius could only step out alone, moving towards the Nine Immortality Bells.
Not only for Zurius, those who had grudges with Qin Wentian all arrived as well. The powers they were from all sent experts over as well.
"Nion, I heard that there was someone who injured you back then. Who is it? Do you want to kill him?" In the direction of the Seven Sword Sect, experts were as common as clouds. An immortal-foundation expert spoke to Nion.
"No need, I will handle my own matters. Kill him." Nion rejected. Her gaze turned in the direction of Qin Wentian as her killing intent flickered coldly.
She could naturally borrow the strength of the experts from the Seven Sword Sect. But if she needed to borrow the strength of her sect to kill a third-level ascendant, in the future, her existence in the Seven Sword Sect would surely become a joke. Even if she couldn't kill Qin Wentian herself, she wouldn't ask the immortal-foundation experts of the Seven Sword Sect to do so.
The experts from the Wondergate Immortal Manor also arrived. They stood in the air and many turned their gazes to Cheron as they asked, "Cheron, are you ready?"
"Mhm, I will do my best. Let's do it before the Nine Immortality Bells." Cheron stared at the experts from the Wondergate Immortal Manor as he replied.
"Good, I'll wait for you to unravel the secret within the Driftsnow City's Nine Immortality Bells. This time around, although your master didn't come, he is still extremely concerned about you. Work hard and don't disappoint him." That person spoke again. Although there were experts from the major powers of the Cloud Prefecture here, it was impossible for them to be too powerful. After all, the Nine Immortality Bells have existed for so many years and there weren't too many secrets about them. Naturally, it wouldn't be able to attract too powerful characters.
But even so, the number of experts gathered here was already extremely shocking. With a single glance, one could see that there were many immortal-foundation experts in the air.
At the same time, there were many geniuses gathered around each of the Nine Immortality Bells. They were all focused and prepared to forge a weapon, attempting to connect with the Nine Immortality Bells, unraveling the secrets within.
Before the Nine Immortality Bells where Qin Wentian was, there were also many experts gathered. They stood arrogantly in the air, preparing to forge weapons. Only Qin Wentian was still standing there calmly, like he had nothing to do with this.
"Everyone, let's begin!" From the air, another voice drifted over. It was none other than the voice of the Jiangling King. He stood in the air and turned his gaze downwards. The Nine Immortality Bells stood tall on the ground, with millions of weaponsmithing geniuses gathered below. However, Pei Tianyuan still didn't have too much hope. After so many years, the secret of the Nine Immortality Bells had yet to be unraveled. Although these people were all filled with lofty aspirations, they would eventually return in disappointment. He had seen such a situation many times before.
From afar, those spectators who were far away from the Nine Immortality Bells had their gazes fixed on the bell region, paying attention to these geniuses. This time around, would there be anyone who could create history and unravel the mystery of the Nine Immortality Bells?
