The Langjing Continent should have the most beautiful scenery among all the cultivation continents in the Astral Sea of Chaos. The mountains and rivers here were magnificent, and the scenery was ever-changing. There were lakes that were embedded in the ground like pearls, and there was also a boundless sea of flowers. Even the sky was often filled with all kinds of vivid clouds.
Not only was the scenery beautiful, but the concentration of spirit qi here was also relatively high. There were even many places that were relatively rich in immortal spiritual energy. Therefore, many powerhouses of various races who had traversed the Astral Sea of Chaos stayed here for a long time.
It was said that in ancient times, before the realms were separated, the Langjing Continent was the most prosperous cultivation continent in the cultivation world. Countless powerhouses lived and cultivated here, opening up many magical cave abodes that had been preserved to this day.
Many of the ancient cave abodes were discovered by cultivators of various races in the following years, and the treasures left behind by the ancient powerhouses were taken away. However, there were still many places that had not been discovered, or that had been discovered but no one had the strength to search for treasures. These places still attracted the powerhouses of the cultivation world to this day.
Among the treasures left behind by the ancient powerhouses that had been discovered, the Yuehua Prefecture Sky was the most attractive. However, the cultivators who knew of the Yuehua Prefecture Sky's existence were all powerhouses of the cultivation world. Ordinary cultivators did not have the right to know about this.
The Yuehua Prefecture Sky had been discovered a long time ago. Unfortunately, although the restriction gate had been exposed in front of everyone, no cultivator had been able to open it.
The reason why the powerhouses of the cultivation world were so concerned about the Yuehua Prefecture Sky was not because they knew that there were many treasures hidden there, but because the Yuehua Prefecture Sky could be opened. The other treasures had either not been discovered, or no one knew how to open it, nor did they have the ability to open it.
Opening the restriction gate of the Yuehua Prefecture Sky did not require martial strength. This was because with the current level of the cultivators of the cultivation world, even if they had a divine weapon, it would be difficult to blast open the gate. They could only collect the key to the gate of the Yuehua Prefecture Sky.
Everyone had always known about the existence of the key to the Yuehua Prefecture Sky. However, there was not only one key, but many of them. Only by collecting all of them could the restriction on the gate automatically retract.
In order to collect all the keys to the Yuehua Prefecture Sky, countless cultivators and forces of various sizes had worked hard for many years. Generation after generation of powerhouses had painstakingly worked for countless years. Now, all the keys of the Yuehua Prefecture Sky finally had owners, and all of them were true powerhouses of the cultivation world or important figures of a large force.. After all, the keys of the Yuehua Prefecture Sky would be taken away by others even if they had a weak cultivation or background.
Without the ability to protect the key, one would not be qualified to enter the Yuehua Prefecture Sky. The cultivation world had always been this cruel and realistic.
The Yuehua Prefecture Sky was located in a very famous place on the Langjing Continent. It was called the Misty Maple Ridge. The entire mountain was covered in maple trees that were no more than three meters tall. When the maple trees swayed in the wind, the fiery red maple leaves would release a fiery red mist. That was how the Misty Maple Ridge got its name.
The Misty Maple Ridge was a beautiful place with pleasant scenery. The entire mountain range was vast. There were also several large high-grade ore veins intersecting here, causing the spiritual qi here to be very dense. A cultivator once said that cultivating in the Misty Maple Ridge for a year was equivalent to cultivating in other places for ten years.
However, the Misty Maple Ridge had always been jointly occupied by many seventh and eighth tribulation powerhouses. They did not allow any cultivators below the sixth tribulation to open up a cave abode and live there for a long time. They also did not allow any force to monopolize the Misty Maple Ridge.
The Yuehua Prefecture Sky was hidden in a waterfall in the depths of the Misty Maple Ridge. The waterfall was about a hundred thousand meters wide and eighty thousand meters tall. Because it was located in the depths of the Misty Maple Ridge, the color of the waterfall tended to be fiery red. From afar, it looked like it was formed by flowing lava.
The Misty Maple Ridge was usually relatively quiet. There were no demon beasts or savage beasts here. Even if there were, they would have been killed long ago. However, recently, the Misty Maple Ridge was not very peaceful. One could often see figures with overbearing auras flying into the ridge. One could also often hear the rumbling sounds of fighting coming from inside.
Many cultivators who stayed in the periphery of the Misty Maple Ridge all year round had guessed that the Yuehua Prefecture Sky was about to open.
The opening of the Yuehua Mansion Sky was definitely a big event for the entire Cultivation World. Of course, this was only for the experts in the Cultivation World. Therefore, many experts gathered here. Many of them were enemies, and once they met, they would immediately start fighting.
The Seventh Tribulation and Eighth Tribulation powerhouses who originally ruled the Misty Maple Ridge could be restrained at first. However, as more and more powerhouses entered the Misty Maple Ridge, even Ninth Tribulation powerhouses came in the end, they turned a blind eye to those fights.
Xiao Lingyu had already arrived at the Langjing Continent, but he did not go to the Misty Maple Ridge. This was because he heard that the Grand Elder of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, Gengjia, was in the Misty Maple Ridge.
Before entering the Yuehua Prefecture Sky, Xiao Lingyu did not want to cause any more trouble. It was not that he was afraid of Gengjia, but he felt that there was no need to fight so early. After all, he did not have the intention or motive to kill or injure Gengjia.
Xiao Lingyu and Anya met once at the Cloud Mist Tower in the South Hill City of the Langhuang Continent. Then, he directly brought Ge Yunfei and Ling 'er through the starry sky to the Langjing Continent and met up with the Wind Howler Clan.
"There is no problem in opening the gate to the Yuehua Prefecture Sky. However, no more than a hundred cultivators can enter at a time. The quota of less than a hundred is naturally divided according to the number of keys. I have calculated that there are only seven quotas for each key, "the Wind Howler Clan's Eighth Tribulation powerhouse said to Xiao Lingyu. There was a hint of worry in his voice.
Xiao Lingyu knew what the Wind Howler Clan's powerhouse was worried about. The Wind Howler Clan could only compete with a Ninth Tribulation powerhouse when they gathered together. However, it was impossible for so many of their people to enter the Yuehua Prefecture Sky. In other words, they no longer had the ability to compete with a Ninth Tribulation powerhouse after entering the Yuehua Prefecture Sky.
The Wind Howler Clan's strongest powerhouse was an Eighth Tribulation powerhouse, and there was only one of them. However, they had a powerful combination of combat skills that had been passed down since ancient times. Even now, they could still fight a Ninth Tribulation powerhouse for a long time and trap two Ninth Tribulation powerhouses for as long as a cup of tea. However, if there were only a few Wind Howlers together, they would only be invincible under the Ninth Tribulation. They wouldn't be able to face a Ninth Tribulation powerhouse directly.
However, there would be more than one Ninth Tribulation powerhouse entering the Yuehua Prefecture Sky this time. If they weren't as strong as a Ninth Tribulation powerhouse, it would be difficult to maximize their benefits after entering the Yuehua Prefecture Sky.
Xiao Lingyu also frowned because of this.
"Our Wind Howler Clan has always been alone and we don't have many friends. Is it possible for Xiao Daoyou to invite some powerhouses to help?" The Wind Howler Clan's powerhouse asked.
Xiao Lingyu thought for a bit and said: "I can invite some, but your Wind Howler Tribe will have to give up a few spots."
"It doesn't matter. The key is that we need to be strong enough to compete for the treasures and have the ability to leave safely. Otherwise, even if we take all seven quotas, it will be pointless if we can't leave after entering." The Wind Howler Clan's Eighth Tribulation powerhouse said calmly.
"If that's the case, I will try to contact them."
After Xiao Lingyu nodded, he took out his Communication Spiritual Pearl and sent out a series of messages.
Two years later, the Temple Master of the Sky Fire Hall, Yan Dong, arrived. Half a year later, the Temple Master of the Water Spirit Hall, Shui Qingrou, also arrived at the Langjing Continent.
Xiao Lingyu, Ge Yunfei, Ling 'er, Yan Dong, and Shui Qingrou already took up five quotas. The Wind Howler Clan only needed to give up two quotas.
In Xiao Lingyu's opinion, this lineup was already very strong.
Although Yan Dong wasn't a Ninth Tribulation powerhouse, his strength increased greatly after refining the purple heavenly fire. His purple heavenly fire was something that ordinary immortal tools and magic treasures couldn't resist. It was also a threat to Ninth Tribulation powerhouses.
Although Shui Qingrou was still a Seventh Tribulation powerhouse, she had a supreme grade immortal tool water spirit treasure. Even if she couldn't deal with a Ninth Tribulation powerhouse, she could easily deal with an Eighth Tribulation powerhouse who didn't have a supreme grade immortal tool.
As for Ling 'er, when she was in a normal state, she could fight to a draw with Xiao Lingyu who used all kinds of magic treasures. When she was in a good state, even Xiao Lingyu wasn't her opponent. She should be able to hold off a Ninth Tribulation powerhouse for a while.
Apart from Ge Yunfei's slightly weaker strength, which was the weakness of the entire team, this team would not be in too much danger unless they were besieged by two or more Ninth Tribulation powerhouses.
After everyone was ready, Xiao Lingyu and the others went to Misty Maple Ridge. While waiting, the other experts who had keys kept urging them. If they delayed any longer, they might provoke the dissatisfaction of those experts. If things went wrong, they might even be besieged.
Although the other Wind Howling powerhouses didn't have a quota, they still escorted them all the way to the waterfall in Misty Maple Ridge. This was to deter the Ninth Tribulation powerhouses from attacking before they entered Yuehua Prefecture Sky.
When Taiyi Immortal Sect's Grand Elder Gengjia saw Xiao Lingyu, he only frowned slightly. Although he was still thinking about Xiao Lingyu's divine sword and magic treasures, he didn't dare to attack. Not only was he afraid of the Wind Howling powerhouses' strength, he was also worried that he would attract the dissatisfaction of the other powerhouses. After all, Yuehua Prefecture Sky was about to open. No one wanted anything to happen to the cultivators who had the keys.
"Alright, everyone is here. I've said what I wanted to say countless times. Let's not delay any longer. Everyone, check if everyone is here and go to the entrance together."
After an old man wrapped in a black robe said impatiently, he brought the cultivators beside him and took the lead to fly towards the waterfall. After passing through the fiery red curtain of water that flew straight down, they disappeared.
Immediately, many powerhouses led their own teams and flew to the waterfall. Taiyi Immortal Sect's Grand Elder Gengjia glanced at Xiao Lingyu meaningfully before he left. After showing a cold smile, he also jumped and left.
Xiao Lingyu's group of cultivators was the last to move. After passing through the water curtain of the waterfall, they arrived at a cave that was obviously man-made. Then, they slowly walked into the depths of the cave.
After walking for about ten thousand feet, they reached the end of the cave. Xiao Lingyu was able to see the gate of Yuehua Prefecture Sky for the first time.
The gate was about ten feet tall and twenty feet wide. It looked like it was made of white jade, but it was wrapped in dense silver restriction lines.
