The name of Immortal Being in Clouds was unconventional; however, Old Jiang was like a salesman who knocked on the door of Zhang Tie's home. The moment he opened his mouth, he would start to talk like the Yangtze River.
Zhang Tie didn't know whether this old man was talkative or had been lonely for too long. Zhang Tie didn't know whether this old man was talkative or had been lonely for too long and finally found a listener. Even though he was honest and silent, Zhang Tie's ears still felt numb after being told about his glorious image in Iron Cloud Medium-sized Domain by that old man for half an hour.
"What the hell do you want to say?" Zhang Tie watched Immortal Being in Clouds in the distance impatiently as he glared at that old man and reproached him, "I'm going to Mountain Ruins. If you want someone to listen to your stories, you can go to the teahouse in the downtown and tell them to your heart's content. Don't nag me. If you nag me again, do you want to fight me here?"
"Hehhehheh, I'm afraid that younger brother Cui doesn't believe in my words. Therefore, I introduced myself in detail!" Immortal Being in Clouds forced a smile as he didn't nag anymore.
Zhang Tie ignored him as he continued to fly upward.
After flying for half an hour, Immortal Being in Clouds who had been silent for quite a while found that Zhang Tie didn't treat him badly anymore. After rolling his eyes for a short while, he opened his mouth once again.
"Younger brother Cui, is it your first time to go to Mountain Ruins?"
"Yes, so what?" Zhang Tie took a look at Immortal Being in Clouds as he answered.
After hearing that it was Zhang Tie's first time to go to Mountain Ruins, Immortal Being in Clouds' eyes shone at once. Closely after that, he asked Zhang Tie carefully, "Younger brother Cui, are you looking for friends in Mountain Ruins?"
"Haha, I've been used to be alone. I don't have any acquaintances in Mountain Ruins!"
After finding that Zhang Tie was willing to talk about Mountain Ruins with him, Immortal Being in Clouds instantly became thrilled as if he had found a breakthrough to talk with Zhang Tie.
"Younger brother Cui, it's very dangerous for you to go to Mountain Ruins alone …" Immortal Being in Clouds said solemnly at once.
"What's so dangerous about it? It's just some demons."
"Mountain Ruins is a perilous place for everyone. Even immortal emperors and demon emperors might die in Mountain Ruins, not to mention wind immortal generals like us!" Immortal Being in Clouds turned solemn at once, "Of course, wind immortal generals are glorious in the domains below Mountain Ruins. Of course, they could dominate a region. However, in Mountain Ruins, they're at the bottom. There are fire immortal generals, supreme-level immortal generals, immortal emperors and demon emperors above us. Not to mention those demon immortal generals who would like to cut us into pieces at the sight of us, even many human immortal generals are scheming against each other in Mountain Ruins. Younger brother Cui, as it's your first time to go to Mountain Ruins, many human immortal generals were tricked by their own people. As a result, they were not killed by demons; instead, they were killed by their own people. As a result, some human immortal generals were even more evil than demons …"
"You're right …" Zhang Tie's look turned relaxed as the last words of Immortal Being in Cloud resonated with Zhang Tie at once. Over these years, Zhang Tie had experienced many trials and tribulations. What Immortal Being in Cloud said just now was one of Zhang Tie's enlightenments.
"When I entered Mountain Ruins for the first time like younger brother Cui, I was almost cheated by a human immortal general. I still have a lingering fear when I think about it …" Immortal Being in Clouds said with a scared look.
"Thanks for your warning. Of course, I will be careful!" Zhang Tie said in a hoarse voice, "You know Mountain Ruins so well. Have you been there before?"
"To tell you the truth, since I promoted to a wind immortal general, I've been to Mountain Ruins dozens of times. Although I dare not say that I know every place in Mountain Ruins except for the core area, I'm definitely more knowledgeable than commoners …" Immortal Being in Cloud said with a pleasant look.
Scratching his head, Zhang Tie suddenly recalled a question, "If so, why could I buy the maps of all the domains in Motian Realm but not the maps of Mountain Ruins?"
Zhang Tie didn't know too much about Mountain Ruins.
There were mainly two reasons.
First, Zhang Tie had just come to Motian Realm for a few years. It was almost impossible for him to know everything about Motian Realm in such a short period of time. Additionally, commoners, even ordinary immortal generals couldn't access the information about Mountain Ruins. Therefore, they had fewer channels to know about it.
Second, after becoming Grand Dragon Emperor, Zhang Tie spent most of his time in secluded cultivation. Even if he was free occasionally, he would like to know the situation facing Mountain Ruins in case of exposing himself. In others' eyes, it was ridiculous that the disciple of Grand Dragon Emperor didn't know about the situation facing Mountain Ruins and had to ask others about it.
Therefore, Zhang Tie knew very little about Mountain Ruins over these years. He definitely knew even less than a real wind immortal general in Motian Realm.
"Hahaha …" After hearing Zhang Tie's question, Immortal Being in Clouds suddenly burst out into laughter.
"What are you laughing at?"
"How could the map of Mountain Ruins be sold? Now that you asked this question, I know that you've not been to Mountain Ruins before!"
"Why not?"
"If you have a treasure map, will you sell it?"
"Of course not!"
"That's right. Although Mountain Ruins is extremely perilous, it's also a huge treasury. There are numerous immortal outfits and rarities in Mountain Ruins. Most of them are in secret realms and immortal relics. Even an immortal general couldn't go around Mountain Ruins for the rest of his life, not to mention figure out how many secret realms and relics there are in Mountain Ruins. It's already amazing for many people to discover one secret realm or relic in their whole lives. Additionally, those secret realms and relics couldn't be taken away. Many rarities in secret realms and relics such as immortal springs and immortal palaces could be used repeatedly. After using them, they could let their disciples use them; their sons and grandsons use them. Besides some influential immortal palaces, those who discovered those secret realms and relics dared not expose it to the public; neither did they want others to know about it. Do you think that they would like to mark those secret realms and relics on the map?"
"No!" After thinking about it for a short while, Zhang Tie decisively shook his head.
"What's more, everything in Mountain Ruins is changing all the time like sand dunes in the desert. A few years ago and a few years later, things and sceneries in a certain place or space would be utterly different. Even if someone knew all the topography in Mountain Ruins and wanted to draw a map of Mountain Ruins, the map would basically be outdated and wrong. If they wanted to explore Mountain Ruins based on an outdated map, they might even die!"
"Isn't there only Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring in Mountain Ruins? Are there other immortal springs?"
"Hehheh, Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring is in the core region of Mountain Ruins. It's said that after drinking a mouthful of Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring, a supreme-level immortal general might promote to an immortal emperor. Of course, Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring is the most precious one. However, as far as I know, there are many other immortal springs in Mountain Ruins with different effects. Some immortal springs could increase people's strength; some immortal springs could increase people's defensive power; some immortal springs could increase people's spiritual energy; some immortal springs could help people break through bottlenecks in cultivation or sense the laws of the universe. It's said that some immortal springs could rejuvenate and revive people. I've seen a mouthful of water from an immortal spring. It's said that one mouthful of its water could extend one's life by 100 years …"
"Is there really such an immortal spring?" Zhang Tie's eyes flickered as he couldn't help but lick his lips. He had long heard that there were numerous secret treasures in Mountain Ruins; however, he had not imagined that there were so many odd immortal springs. 'If there's really an immortal spring that could increase one's strength by two times after taking a bath in it, wouldn't I be extremely powerful if I take a bath in it or take a mouthful of it?' "Why would I lie to you?
As long as you enter Mountain Ruins, you could easily know about this news. However, these immortal springs are all in secret realms or relics. At least half of these secret realms and relics are in the hands of demons. It's almost impossible for human immortal generals to enjoy them. Some immortal springs are in the hands of human immortal palaces. Even if someone knows about them, they would not expose it to the public. It's also almost impossible for ordinary immortal generals to enjoy them. You'd better try your luck and wander around in Mountain Ruins. You might find something else … "
As the two people chatted, they gradually mixed with each other and flew towards Mountain Ruins together …
As for Zhang Tie, a "newbie" in Motian Realm, with Immortal Being in Cloud on his side, he really knew many things that he didn't know before and benefited a lot. At least, he didn't know anything about Mountain Ruins anymore. Therefore, he didn't refuse to travel with Immortal Being in Cloud.
Of course, Zhang Tie also knew that Immortal Being in Cloud was not a helpful Lei Feng on the way. Zhang Tie also felt that Immortal Being in Cloud might have some other purpose by approaching him.
However, Zhang Tie was sure that this old man was neither a demon nor a member of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace. Even though he was a bit selfish, he was definitely not a bad person who had ulcers on the soles of his feet and had pus on the top of his head.
However, now that Immortal Being in Cloud didn't want to tell him about it for the time being, Zhang Tie didn't ask him about it either. No matter what, Zhang Tie had the initiative. Zhang Tie was not afraid of what this old man could do to him. 'Let's travel together. Let's chat with each other on the way …'
