Dark Night City was the closest city to Two World Mountain among the thirty-six main cities in the Dark Star Realm.
The current Dark Night City had already restored its former prosperity and hustle and bustle. The destruction caused by the earth-shattering battle not long ago had been completely restored by the joint efforts of many cultivators of the Dark Star Clan. However, the ancient aura and traces of time in the restored places had disappeared, revealing a brand-new luster everywhere.
People came and went in Dark Night City. The Dark Star Clan intertwined with the cultivators of the outside world. All kinds of business and transactions were carried out in an orderly manner. It looked no different from before the battle.
The only difference was that in the current Dark Night City, the position of the City Lord was still vacant. The thirty-six Lords and one hundred and eight Kings, who were the guardians of Dark Night City, had also not been filled.
At the same time, in the streets and alleys of Dark Night City, in various restaurants and inns, there were still many people talking about the battle that had shaken the entire city not long ago.
However, among the spectators, the majority were cultivators from the outside world. As long as there was even the slightest bit of news about the war, or about the cultivator from the outside world named Gu Qi, these people would prick up their ears and listen carefully, as if they were afraid of missing out on the slightest detail.
Among these cultivators from the outside world, most of them were people sent by the Hundred Saints City. They only had one mission, which was to do everything possible to collect news about Gu Qi in the entire Dark Star Realm, including Two World Mountain.
Gu Qi's battle in Dark Night City had already been known by the major forces of the Hundred Saints City. Now that the Hundred Saints City had temporarily stabilized, the major forces secretly sent people out to search for Gu Qi. With such a heaven-defying expert, the major families in the Hundred Saints City all had the idea of taking Gu Qi under their command.
"I didn't expect so many people in the Hundred Saints City to be looking for me. However, I don't plan to use the identity of Gu Qi anymore. It would be strange if they could find me. " At this moment, on the streets of Dark Night City, Jianchen still maintained the appearance of Kun Tian, but he had concealed all his aura and was strolling leisurely on the streets.
No one could recognize his identity. After all, the Fifth Hall Master's appearance was not something an ordinary cultivator could see. In addition, he had restrained all of his aura, making him inconspicuous in the vast sea of people, making it even harder for others to miss him.
After all, Kun Tian's appearance was nothing special to begin with.
His Divine Sense had already enveloped the entire Dark Night City, and he could clearly see the situation in the entire city. Even the sound transmissions between the cultivators sent by the Hundred Saints Cities could not escape his powerful Divine Sense.
"I remember when I first came to Dark Night City, I was an outsider with a different name. Even entering the city was troublesome. And now, I'm the hall master of one of the ten sacred halls of the Darkstar race. The world really is unpredictable, "Jianchen sighed inside as he strolled along the streets of Dark Night City.
He wasn't in a hurry to go to Borderline Mountain. Instead, he walked through the wide main street of Dark Night City in a straight line towards the city gate.
During this period of time in the Darkstar Realm, he really didn't have the time to appreciate the local customs of this foreign land.
It wasn't until he walked out of the newly built city gate of Dark Night City that Jianchen collected his thoughts. He soared into the sky and flew directly towards Borderline Mountain.
Not long after he left, in the Eighth Sacred Hall of the Darkstar Race's Imperial City.
"Hall Master, I've found out that the Fifth Hall Master was teleported to Dark Night City."
"Dark Night City? This Hall Master understands. You may leave! " On the throne, the Eighth Hall Master slowly stood up and paced back and forth in front of the throne. His eyes flickered rapidly. No one knew what he was thinking.
After a while, he seemed to have made a decision. He suddenly walked out of the Eighth Sacred Hall and then went to Dark Night City through the teleportation array.
Borderline Mountain was shrouded in a thick layer of gray mist all year round. Standing outside, it was impossible to see the true appearance of Borderline Mountain, making this place even more mysterious.
There were cultivators going in and out of Borderline Mountain from time to time. Almost all of them gathered in small groups of three to five. Very few people went alone.
Without exception, these cultivators were all foreign cultivators. As for the Darkstar Race cultivators, they would never enter Borderline Mountain unless they had no other choice.
"Recently, the Darkstar Race's demand for the corpses of Life Sucking Beasts has increased. The price they're offering is two to three times higher than before. I wonder what they're going to do with so many Life Sucking Beast corpses …"
"Although the corpses of Life Sucking Beasts are a decent food ingredient, and the inns in the various cities of the Darkstar Race are purchasing them, the price of the dishes made with Life Sucking Beasts is ridiculously high. There aren't many people who can really afford it. Logically speaking, there should be a lot left in the supply under normal circumstances, but the Darkstar Race is buying them at such a high price …"
"Have you realised that more and more people are going in and out of Borderline Mountain recently? I think the Darkstar Race definitely isn't buying so many Life Sucking Beast corpses just to turn them into food. They must have other motives …"
"Even if they have other motives, they don't care about us. All I know is that the corpse of an early Overgod can be exchanged for a Star Flower in the Darkstar Race. Star Flowers aren't worth much in the Darkstar Race, but the price will immediately increase by several dozen times or even a hundred times in the Saints' World. Various organisations are fighting over it …"
"Let's take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune …"
.....
Along the way to Borderline Mountain, the senses of Jianchen's soul enveloped a range of several dozen million kilometres. Wherever it passed by, nothing could escape his senses, so he naturally heard the discussions of many cultivators in the outside world. He understood that the Darkstar Race had been preparing for a very long time. A great ceremony that would decide the fate of their entire race was about to begin, and the complicated process of the ceremony required a large number of Life Sucking Beast corpses.
As a result, the Darkstar Race had offered great rewards recently, luring in many cultivators from the outside world to hunt for Life Sucking Beast corpses for them in Borderline Mountain.
"Darkstar Race, oh Darkstar Race, you've gone to such great lengths and invested so much wealth and resources into this great ceremony just to weaken the suppression of the Grand Exalt of the Wood Spirit race on you so that you can break through the shackles of cultivation and become Chaotic Primes. It's just a pity that the ceremony this time is fated to fail. You can only blame yourself for touching my people, Jianchen, "thought Jian Chen as he flew through the sky. He felt no sympathy for the Darkstar Race at all. It was all because the Darkstar Race wanted Seiyu to pay with his life in order to increase the success rate of the ceremony.
Just this alone was enough for Jianchen to become irreconcilable enemies with the Darkstar Race.
Swish!
At the same time, Jianchen had already approached Borderline Mountain. He did not slow down at all, directly charging into Borderline Mountain with a whistling sound. He was swallowed by the dense mist in a single instance.
Soon after he entered Borderline Mountain, a figure flew over from afar. He concealed all of his presence, and even his body was illusory. He seemed like a ghost.
The figure stopped several hundred metres away from the mist. He stared at the mountain range shrouded in mist without blinking.
He was stern.
He was the hall master of the Eighth Divine Hall, Sen Ran.
He had discovered Jianchen's tracks through the power of the Eighth Divine Hall, so he tailed him all the way here. However, because he maintained a sufficient distance from Jianchen, Jianchen did not sense him with the senses of his soul.
