A gust of autumn wind blew, ruffling the yellow leaves and rustling the mountains.
The northern region was a land of bitter cold. The four seasons changed, and autumn and winter were long. Half of the year, there was no sign of life, and it was dry and cold.
The Disorderly Cloud State had endless mountain ranges that stretched on endlessly. There was not a single piece of flat land, and the high peaks pierced the sky. It was also the reason for its name.
"I think this state is not bad." Ye Fan said.
Tu Fei nodded and said, "This is a mountain range with mountains everywhere. It is indeed a good place to seek refuge."
The Disorderly Cloud State was a journey of eleven to twelve days from the northern region Holy City. It was separated from the Fire Cloud State by an oasis and two reddish-brown deserts.
They had chosen for more than half a month before finally deciding to take action in this state, waiting to be 'discovered'.
The Black Emperor hid in a mountain range and was responsible for engraving Dao patterns. Ye Fan and Tu Fei wandered around to understand the state's situation in detail.
Although Mountain Rock City was located in the middle of the mountains, it was the central city of the Disorderly Cloud State. There were mountains everywhere, so there was no flat land to build a city on.
The city was not magnificent. The roads were paved with mountain rocks, and the trees on both sides of the ancient streets were almost bare. Yellow leaves fluttered in the air, telling of the chill of autumn.
Ye Fan walked on the narrow stone streets and circled around the city. Soon, he learned a lot of news.
The important figures of the various sacred lands were deeply attracted by the ancient scroll. Now, all their energy was focused on Purple Mountain. The various factions were constantly trying to figure it out so that they could successfully open it in the future.
Ye Fan went to a restaurant and ordered a flask of aged wine and a few dishes. He drank by himself and listened to the conversations of the cultivators.
"The Holy City has cut out something good again. It seems to be a rare treasure that was bought by the Central State's royalty."
"Many people are searching for that Ye Fan. Are there any clues? He is worth fifty thousand kilograms of Origins."
"Fifty thousand kilograms of Origins is too little. Think about what he has on him. That is the Myriad Source Qi, a priceless treasure. It is a sacred item that even ancient emperors would covet."
"Important figures are studying Purple Mountain. It looks like there will be a big commotion in the near future."
"Many geniuses from the holy lands have come, not just from the Alkaid and the Ji Family. No matter how big the northern region is, there is no place for him to hide. The Source Qi of All Things will fall into the hands of the holy lands."
"Actually, many elders are also secretly looking for that young man surnamed Ye. It's just that they haven't revealed themselves yet. After all, the Myriad Source Qi is too precious."
"Come to think of it, the Sacred Body of the Ancients used to dominate the world and was invincible. Now, however, it can only advance to the Holy Zhi Palace Secret Realm. Otherwise, if it were to grow and compete with the Saints and Saintesses, the future of the Eastern Barren Territory would be extremely lively."
Ye Fan's heart stirred. He had heard of many outstanding and famous figures. There were those of the younger generation and those of the older generation. They had all come to the Northern Domain, and all of them were aiming for his cauldron.
Thud, thud, thud …
Very rhythmic footsteps could be heard, as if it was ringing in the hearts of the people upstairs, causing their hearts to beat along with it.
Many people's hearts tightened, and they felt suffocated. It was as if someone was strangling them and controlling their breathing.
At the top of the stairs, a young man around 13 or 14 years old walked up. He was dressed in white and spotless. His hair was black and shiny, and his skin was as white as snow. His eyes were like black gems, and his lips were red and teeth were white. He was very handsome and could be called a handsome young man.
"Sacred Body of the Ancients? Invincible in the same level? The way I see it, you're just a stray dog. If I run into you one day, I'll take you back and make you my slave."
The young man was like a jade tree. He was so handsome that he was almost enchanting, but his words were very rude, which made many people frown.
Two old men followed behind him. They were dressed in gray and looked very old. Their backs were hunched, and they looked like two loyal old servants.
One of them walked up and chose a table for the young man. He carefully wiped the table with his sleeve before letting the young man sit down. The two old men then stood behind him.
"Whose child is this? How did they educate him? He's so arrogant at such a young age. Isn't he afraid that he'll go astray?" Although the people upstairs could guess that the young man was no ordinary person, some of them still couldn't help but mock him.
The young man glanced across and asked in a lukewarm tone, "What? Am I wrong?"
"Child, you should be humble when you speak. Many geniuses die young."
"Hmph!" The young man snorted coldly. His voice was like a shaking golden bell, making the blood of many boil. He said, "The Sacred Body of the Ancients has been deified. Even hundreds of thousands of years ago, he might not be invincible, let alone now."
There was no lack of experts among the cultivators who traveled from south to north. One of them retorted, "Back in the day, the Sacred Body of the Ancients was invincible. It's an indisputable fact. Even now, that crippled body has shown extraordinary combat strength. Few people of the same level can suppress him. "
The young man in white sneered and said, "It doesn't matter if he's a crippled body or a sacred body. It's still used to suppress."
"Young man, you're getting more and more arrogant. How old are you? How can you defeat the Sacred Body of the Ancients? Even if it's a crippled body, it's almost invincible among those of the same level," someone goaded.
"A frog at the bottom of a well doesn't know how vast the sky is. I'll kill him all the same even if we're of the same level," the young man in white said coldly.
"Where did you come from? Are you really confident that you can defeat the Sacred Body of the Ancients of the same level?" someone asked in surprise.
"I'm just a commoner who lives in the mountains without any notable background. Does suppressing a Sacred Body of the Ancients have to depend on one's background? He's really nothing. "The young man in white's expression was cold.
The Eastern Barren Territory was boundless, and there were many extraordinary people deep in the mountains and rivers. Not all the experts were in the sacred land. Everyone looked surprised, thinking that the young man might really have come from such a lineage.
Some of them couldn't help but probe with their divine consciousness, wanting to test the cultivation of the young man in white. However, they were struck by lightning before they could even get close.
The eyes of one of the two old servants in gray flashed, and a terrifying light shot out, forcing back the seven or eight divine consciousnesses.
Tu Fei walked upstairs and found a table to sit at. He glanced at Ye Fan, who was not far away, and said, "Who's boasting shamelessly? Aren't you afraid that the wind will cut your tongue?"
They entered the city together to understand the situation, but they didn't walk together. It was only now that they arrived at the restaurant. He glanced at the young man and asked, "May I know your name?"
"Xia Jiuyou."
As the son of a great bandit, Tu Fei was not afraid even if he ran into people from the sacred land. Naturally, he would not be polite to a young man. He said, "I've heard of Gai Jiuyou, but I've never heard of Xia Jiuyou."
8,000 years ago, Gai Jiuyou was invincible in the Central Plains. Many people thought that he would become the Great Emperor, but he eventually left for the Eastern Barren Territory and disappeared from this land.
"You'll remember this name from now on." The young man in white, Xia Jiuyou, smirked.
"I see that you're so arrogant. How about I exchange a few moves with you?" Tu Fei squinted at him.
"I'm not interested in you. This time, I'm here for the Sacred Body of the Ancients." Xia Jiuyou didn't even glance at Tu Fei.
Tu Fei wanted to slap the young man to death, but he couldn't. He asked, "Did the Sacred Body of the Ancients offend you?"
"No, I still want to catch him. I read in an ancient book that the blood of the sacred body can be used to refine medicine. I'm here for him. I want to refine a cauldron of divine medicine."
"Heroes come from young," Ye Fan said. He poured himself a glass of wine and drank it.
In fact, he really wanted to beat this young man up. It was his first time seeing such an arrogant person. He was so young, but he kept saying that he wanted to refine his sacred body.
"You're here for the sacred body too? The Ji family and the Alkaid family are both offering a reward. If there's a clue, how much will you pay?" Tu Fei asked.
"I'll pay whatever they offer," the white-clothed young man, Xia Jiuyou, looked at him and answered.
At that moment, everyone on the second floor was shocked. Who was this young man? The highest reward offered by the two Great Sage's Land was 100,000 kilograms of Source. How could a young man like him have that much?
Everyone looked at him in surprise. He didn't look like someone from a holy land. Who was his master?
"100,000 kilograms of Source isn't a small amount," Ye Fan said casually.
"Can you afford it?" Tu Fei was also skeptical.
"Although 100,000 kilograms of Source isn't a small amount, I'm not so poor that I can't afford it." The white-clothed young man, Xia Jiuyou, looked indifferent.
"What's this young man's background? Is he a disciple of an old Sacred Master who came to the Wasteland in his later years?" Some people guessed.
"Hehe …" A tender laughter came, and a fragrant wind blew at the top of the stairs. A beautiful young girl walked up, and her voice was like small pearls falling on a jade plate, clear and pleasant to listen to. She said, "This little brother in white is so bold."
It was a tall, sexy girl. She wore a green dress, and her hair reflected blue clouds. Her feet glowed with a five-colored jade light. She was very charming, and her eyes were like water. Her hair flew in the wind.
Ji Biyue!
Ye Fan's heart jumped. She was one of the top three young experts of the Ji family, second only to Ji Haoyue. Although this girl was charming, she was definitely a ruthless character. She even wanted to kill her own sister.
The white-clothed young man, Xia Jiuyou, asked, "Who are you?"
"I am Ji Biyue." Ji Biyue's smile was very charming, dazzling many people on the second floor.
"So you want to compete with me for the Sacred Body of the Ancients?" Xia Jiuyou asked.
"Why would I compete? He killed the Great Elder of the Ji family. I just want to kill him." Ji Haoyue's smile was very sweet.
"But I don't have to kill him. I want to use his blood to refine the divine medicine. I want to take him as my servant," Xia Jiuyou said.
Tu Fei sent a message to Ye Fan discreetly. "Did you see that? This kid is making me seethe with anger. Who is he? How should we beat him up?"
Ye Fan didn't change his expression. He also sent a voice transmission. "Don't act recklessly. When the big thing is done, we can slowly deal with him. He probably has a big background."
A sound came from the staircase again. A young man in blue came up the stairs. He had an extraordinary temperament. His heroic spirit was restrained, and his eyes occasionally flickered with divine light.
"Brother Li Rui of the Alkaid, you are here too." Ji Biyue chuckled.
He was a young expert of the Four Extreme Secret Realms. He was the top expert of the Alkaid generation. After the Alkaid Saint Child was taken by Ye Fan, he would probably be appointed as the new Saint Child.
"Seems like we all got the same news. Someone is selling to us at the same time," Li Rui answered with a smile.
Tu Fei's appearance had changed a long time ago. Although his aura was not as different as Ye Fan's, he wasn't worried about being recognized because he hadn't had any real contact with the people in front of him.
He sent a voice transmission to Ye Fan. "Damn it! Which bastard is giving them the news? Is he the same as us? He wants to trick them and coincidentally runs into them?"
Ye Fan was also worried. The Alkaid and the Ji family's people had come to this mountain city. Apparently, the situation wasn't normal.
"No matter who comes, I will take the Sacred Body of the Ancients. He will be my future servant," Xia Jiuyou said coldly.
"This time, we don't care about anything else. We must cut this white-clothed brat into pieces. Doesn't he have 100,000 pounds of Source? Rob him!" Tu Fei was furious.
Ye Fan also wanted to beat him up. This Xia Jiuyou was too arrogant. However, he seemed to have a big background since he dared to compete with the people of the Holy Land.
