The Five Colored Mountain was definitely a special existence in the Great Northwest, a place where good people mixed with bad people.
This was the case in both the ancient and modern times.
The Five Color Mountain had always adhered to its own style and adhered to the principle of upholding justice.
In ancient times, the Great Northwest was a place where demons and ghosts gathered. There were countless evil cultivators, evil tyrants, and desperadoes. However, Rainbow Mountain was like a lotus that grew out of the mud and was unaffected. Not only that, it even helped persuade many evil cultivators to turn over a new leaf.
This was the case in the ancient times.
In the modern era, all living things were recovering. In order to compete for cultivation resources, the major sects were either roping in the families or recruiting troops. Even those secluded Immortal's Abodes had entered the world one after another, establishing sects and recruiting disciples.
Only the Five Color Mountain did not.
Although the Five Color Mountain also recruited disciples, the conditions were extremely harsh. This was because the Five Color Mountain did not recruit disciples based on talent, fortune, or even family background. The Five Color Mountain only recruited disciples based on their character.
As long as one's character was good, even if one's talent was poor, one could enter the Five Color Mountain to cultivate.
On the other hand, if one's character was not good, the Five Color Mountain would not accept them even if they were talented and had unparalleled comprehension.
Because of this, the Five Color Mountain had always had very few disciples. After thousands of years, it was unknown if there were even a hundred people.
Although the Five Color Mountain did not have many disciples, all of them were famous.
Everyone on the Five Color Mountain was a gentleman.
This sentence was not as simple as just saying it.
From the Five Colors Ancestor to Elder Jiu Jue, who was famous in the Northwest during ancient times, to the current mainstay, Eighteen Swords, all of them were heroes among men. Even the youngest disciple of Five Colors Mountain, the title of the 24 Young Heroes, gradually became famous in the Northwest.
The Five Color Mountain was located in the Five Color Boundary of the Starmoon Domain.
This boundary had mountains and rivers, and the scenery was even more beautiful. Thanks to the Five Skandha Spirit Vein under the Five Color Mountain, the entire boundary looked magnificent.
This was especially true for the Five Color Garden, which was a beautiful scenery in the entire Northwest.
After entering the Five Color Boundary.
With a single glance, Gu Qingfeng saw the colorful mountain ranges in the distance. Below the mountain ranges was a magnificent sea of colorful flowers. As far as the eye could see, it was truly relaxing and pleasant.
"If I remember correctly, the flowers under the Five Color Mountain only bloom once a year for five days. One day, one color, five colors, five days, five colors, and they will wither on the sixth day."
Gu Qingfeng, who was riding an old horse, took a sip of the peach blossom wine and couldn't help but smile. "It looks like these five-colored flowers will start blooming in a few days. My luck is really not bad. I actually managed to catch the annual five-colored flowers blooming."
Gu Qingfeng clearly remembered that in ancient times, when the Five Colored Flowers bloomed every year, the foot of the Five Colored Mountain would be filled with people.
It wasn't to admire the flowers.
........
The Five Color Flower was a spiritual flower that contained the unique Five Skandha Spirit Qi of the Five Color Mountain. It was perfect for refining elixirs.
Every time the Five Color Flower bloomed, it would only last for five days. After five days, the disciples of the Five Color Mountain would collect the petals and scatter them. Anyone could pick them up.
This was what Gu Qingfeng admired the most.
At the same time, it was also the most painful memory of his youth.
He vaguely remembered that every year when the Five Colored Flowers bloomed, it was called a grand event in the Great Northwest. At that time, people from all over would come to pick them up as if they were going to a market. Many people would wait here a month before the flowers bloomed.
The Antiquity Age was a time when resources were scarce. Even a spiritual stone was enough to make people fight over it. The value of a Five Color Flower petal was much higher than a spiritual stone. If one could get a petal and sell it, an ordinary person could live without food or drink for the rest of his life. Even a cultivator could survive for three to five years with a single petal.
In the past, Gu Qingfeng had picked up petals at the foot of the Five Color Mountain more than once. To be exact, he came here almost every year.
He was an orphan who had been wandering since childhood. Not to mention cultivation, even food and clothing were a problem.
Every year when the Five Color Flower bloomed, he would follow a large group of people from the Fiery Sun Territory. The Fiery Sun Territory was very far from the Xingyue Territory. Flying on a sword would take a day. If he hurried, it would take a month or two to get here. On the way, he had to be on tenterhooks, afraid of being eaten by demons and ghosts, and afraid of being caught by evil cultivators to be refined.
Even so, Gu Qingfeng still came with the convoy every year. Unfortunately, he was really too young at that time. Although he came to snatch it every year, he returned empty-handed every year. Even if he was lucky enough to snatch it once, it was snatched away by someone else.
Fortunately.
He had met a kind-hearted woman.
She was a female disciple of the Five Color Mountain.
Her name was Liu Qingyan.
Not only was she his childhood goddess, but she was also the goddess of many people at that time.
Because the person in charge of sprinkling the Five Color Flower Petals was none other than Liu Qingyan.
Because of this, many people called her the Five Color Fairy.
Gu Qingfeng remembered very clearly that when he was twelve years old, it was already the fifth time he had come to snatch a five-colored petal. It was also this time that he finally managed to snatch a five-colored petal. However, before he could even hold it, it was snatched away by someone else. At that time, Gu Qingfeng was so angry that at a young age, he directly bit that person's ear without caring about his cultivation level. In the end, he bit that person's ear off.
If it wasn't for Liu Qingyan's timely help, his little life would have ended here.
Back then, Liu Qingyan not only helped him get the flower back, but she was also worried about revenge and brought him to the Five Color Mountain for a few days.
Although Gu Qingfeng was a wanderer for many years, he knew that this opportunity was not easy to come by, so he wanted to enter the Five Color Mountain. He pretended to be pitiful and innocent, finally moving Liu Qingyan's heart and gaining her sympathy.
He thought that he could finally enter the Five Color Mountain, but who knew that he would fail.
Because he didn't pass the examination.
The elders of the Five Color Mountain all thought that he was mischievous, stubborn, and difficult to teach.
As a result, Gu Qingfeng was forced to leave the Five Color Mountain after half a month.
The only fortunate thing was that when he left, Liu Qingyan sent him off on her flying sword. Before leaving, she gave him a lot of Five Color Flower Petals and some cultivation books. Unfortunately, Gu Qingfeng didn't know a single word back then, so those so-called cultivation books were later lost by him.
Relying on the Five Color Flower Petals, Gu Qingfeng learned how to read. He bribed the disciples of the Yunxia School and became a servant. After beating up a direct disciple of the Yunxia School, Gu Qingfeng was expelled from the Yunxia School. Relying on his Heart of the Flaming Sun, he fought his way through the four domains and hid until he reached the Star-Moon Domain. He wanted to see the goddess who saved his life back then.
Unfortunately, when Liu Qingyan went out to train, Gu Qingfeng didn't see his young goddess even after he left the Great Northwest Sect.
Thinking about it now, he more or less felt some regret.
