Zhou Wen and Liu Yun carefully passed through the canyon and finally stood in front of the strange mountain.
"Kunlun is indeed a mysterious place. We can't see such a strange and tall mountain even after walking so far. We can only see it when standing at the foot of the mountain. If we were to fly, I'm afraid we would crash into it," Liu Yun sighed.
Just as Zhou Wen was about to say something, he suddenly saw the mountain shake.
"Oh no, we were still too late. From the looks of it, the Immortals are already retrieving the sword. What did I say? I told you not to wander around, but you refused to listen. It's too late for regrets now, "Liu Yun said gloomily.
"I'm afraid the Immortals haven't managed to retrieve the sword," Zhou Wen said as he stared at the mountain.
"You can see it?" Liu Yun looked at Zhou Wen in puzzlement.
"In such a mysterious place, even All-Seeing Eyes can't see more than a hundred meters. How can I see it?" Zhou Wen shook his head.
"Then how do you know that the Immortals haven't managed to retrieve the sword?" Liu Yun asked.
"A man's intuition." Zhou Wen didn't explain as he walked up the mountain.
"What are you doing?" Liu Yun hurriedly stopped Zhou Wen. "Teacher told us to retrieve the sword before the Immortals come. Now that the Immortals are already retrieving the sword, aren't you just asking for trouble if you go up now?"
"If Teacher really wanted us to retrieve the sword in advance, he wouldn't have informed us so late. I'm afraid he wanted us to meet the Immortals," Zhou Wen said as he walked. He had already stepped onto the mountain peak.
"Then all the more you can't go up. You know it's a trap, but you still jumped in?" Although Liu Yun said that, he followed.
"It doesn't matter if it's a trap or not. I just want that sword. Go back first. I'll go up and take a look. If it doesn't work, I'll naturally leave, "Zhou Wen said.
"That's fine. With that turtle shell protecting you, you don't have to worry about escaping." Liu Yun stopped and didn't follow Zhou Wen up the mountain, but he had no intention of leaving.
Zhou Wen walked towards the top of the mountain step by step. Liu Yun had told him not to fly on this mountain unless it was absolutely necessary, nor was he to use spatial teleportation abilities.
Liu Yun didn't know the consequences of using them. Those words had been passed on verbatim from Jing Daoxian.
At the top of the mountain, the woman loosened her grip on the sword hilt and said to Wang Mingyuan, who was standing beside her, "You draw the sword."
"Immortal Sovereign, you must be joking. How can I possibly pull out a sword that even you can't?" Wang Mingyuan said calmly.
"I have my reasons. Just go and draw the sword," the woman said indifferently.
"Yes, Immortal Reverend." Wang Mingyuan didn't say anything else. He walked up to the stone tablet and reached out to grab the hilt of the sword. He tried to pull the sword out, but it didn't budge at all.
"Even a human can't pull it out?" The woman frowned slightly.
"I can no longer be considered a human." Wang Mingyuan let go and stepped aside.
"That makes sense. In that case, let's find a pure human and try it out." After saying that, the woman turned around to descend the mountain. However, when she lowered her head, she saw a figure approaching from the middle of the mountain.
"Who else here knows about this?" the woman turned her head and stared at Wang Mingyuan.
"I've never told anyone about my discovery of this place. I don't know if others have discovered this place." Wang Mingyuan's expression didn't change. He looked as usual as he continued, "If it's a human, wouldn't that be perfect? Immortal Supremacy wouldn't have to search for people outside."
The woman couldn't tell if Wang Mingyuan was lying, so she didn't ask any further. She turned her head to look at the figure at the foot of the mountain, hoping to determine who it was.
On this strange mountain peak, the woman's vision was greatly affected. From afar, she could only see the silhouette of a figure.
Zhou Wen's eyesight clearly wasn't that strong. When the woman saw him, he hadn't seen her figure. By the time he saw the woman's figure on the mountaintop, the woman had already seen his appearance clearly.
"Wang Mingyuan, don't tell me that there's such a coincidence in this world. Others haven't discovered the secret of Kunlun Mountain, but the two of you happened to discover the same secret." The woman's gaze at Wang Mingyuan had already turned cold.
"There are many coincidences in this world. This isn't surprising. I can swear on my soul that I've never told this secret to my disciple," Wang Mingyuan said as he began to swear.
When the woman saw Wang Mingyuan really swear a soul oath, although she was still in disbelief, it was impossible for the soul oath to have no reaction if Wang Mingyuan was lying. It meant that he wasn't lying.
"From the looks of it, it's really a coincidence." As the woman spoke, she seemed to be preparing to turn around to look down the mountain. However, before she could turn around, she suddenly slashed at Wang Mingyuan.
This slash was too sudden, and the woman's Incorporeal Sword Beam was too fast. Before Wang Mingyuan could react, his head was cleaved off by the Incorporeal Sword Beam.
When Wang Mingyuan's head flew down from midair, his face was filled with shock and disbelief. It was as though he had never expected the woman to kill him. He couldn't believe it even in death.
"The path of immortality can't tolerate a speck of dust." The woman seemed to have done something trivial. She didn't even look at Wang Mingyuan's corpse.
Under the Incorporeal Sword Beam, it was impossible for anyone to survive unless Wang Mingyuan had the phoenix's Nirvana rebirth powers. Unfortunately, Wang Mingyuan wasn't a phoenix, so he didn't have the ability to resurrect.
Wang Mingyuan's corpse and head fell down the mountain. Zhou Wen was still sizing up the woman when he suddenly saw something roll down. On closer inspection, his expression changed drastically.
"Teacher!" Zhou Wen reached out to grab Wang Mingyuan's body and head. After confirming it again, his expression turned even uglier. It was indeed Wang Mingyuan's corpse. He was completely dead.
In an instant, Zhou Wen seemed to make up his mind. He surprisingly threw Wang Mingyuan's corpse and ran down the mountain.
The so-called emotions of humans are really hypocritical. The woman was first taken aback before a sneer suffused her lips. She walked down the mountain.
She didn't walk fast, as though she was taking a leisurely stroll. However, as Zhou Wen ran at full speed, the distance between them shortened.
Just as Zhou Wen reached the mountainside, he heard a cold voice behind him. The voice seemed to come from behind his neck.
"If you continue running, I'll chop off your head like your teacher."
Zhou Wen's body instantly froze. He stopped in his tracks, not daring to run. He slowly turned around and saw the woman standing less than three meters behind him. She was staring at him coldly.
"Sister, I don't think we know each other, right?" Zhou Wen revealed a stiff smile as he looked at the woman.
