Just how many ancient tribes were there in the endless wasteland and mountain forests? Nobody could say for sure, it was basically impossible to count. This was a mysterious land, filled with countless unknowns. Many ancient secrets were passed down here.
Ancestor God Suirenshi, Youchaoshi, Fuxi, and the others had once appeared in this land. These several tens of thousands of miles of territory in the northwest was not only the sacred land of the Forest Tribe and Barbarian Tribe, it was also a place that many practitioners of the Middle Earth yearned for. Year after year, there would often be adventurers venturing deep into this dangerous yet colorful ancient land. However, the majority of them never returned.
The Forest Tribe and the Barbarian Tribe didn't have much hostility towards outsiders. But, they didn't have the slightest bit of good feelings either. Moreover, there were many ancient tribes that had existed for too long. They didn't allow outsiders to explore their truly mysterious places. As a matter of fact, many explorers only wandered around the periphery, and they were already endlessly amazed by this mysterious land.
The sacred mountain that Xiao Chen and Oxman were heading to was definitely one of the most terrifying and mysterious places within these several tens of thousands of miles of territory.
At the moment, two days had already passed since they set off. That place was at least two thousand miles away from the sacred land. It might be very far for ordinary people, but for Xiao Chen who had the Undying Divine Wings, as well as Oxman who had the Black Dragon as his mount, it was nothing.
If it was not because they paid a visit to many ancient tribes along the way, as well as spent more than half a day with those old people who returned from the dragon island, Xiao Chen and the rest might have already arrived at the sacred mountain.
The Black Dragon King clearly remembered Xiao Chen. Despite its arrogant nature, it still allowed Xiao Chen to stand on its back. Carrying him and the little fatty, they stepped on the treetops as if they were flying. They transformed into a streak of black light and advanced at high speed.
What made people exclaim in admiration was that there were many powerful human experts. Even they might not have the strength to step on leaves and flowers and fly.
The little fatty, Oxman's Black Dragon King and Lan Nuo's Amethyst Dragon King, were the first two Dragon Kings to be born on the dragon island. Naturally, they were also the most powerful Dragon Kings. They had accumulated a deep foundation of the Ancestral Dragon. Even if they could not become the Ancestral Dragon in the future, they might still be able to survive like the two Barbarian Dragon Kings who escaped the seal on the dragon island.
Within these several tens of thousands of miles of territory, there were countless wastelands and primitive mountain forests.
At this moment, Xiao Chen and the others were passing through a wasteland that was as red as blood. As far as the eye could see, not a single blade of grass grew. Legend has it that this place had experienced a terrifying battle between deities, and was once dyed with the blood of deities. It contained endless baleful energy, and it would be like this forever, no longer able to grow vegetation.
The little fatty Oxman explained, "I don't know if the legend is true or not, but Little Black and I have encountered a Blood Corpse here before. At that time, if Little Black wasn't fast enough, we brothers would have never seen each other again."
"Is it that scary?"
Xiao Chen was somewhat astonished. He said, "We are just passing by this place. Shouldn't we be more careful?"
"Don't worry, it's fine during the day. The old shaman of the barbarian tribe once told me that I should never enter this place at night. "At that time, I didn't listen to your advice. In the end, I really did encounter the Blood Corpses at midnight. I saw the bloody ground split open with many corpses inside. You don't know how terrifying that scene was! There were many ancestors with wings and many antiques with horns. At that time, I was so scared that my hair stood on end. It was like hell reappearing. Even though we escaped fast enough, we were still caught by a streak of blood. I was almost caught up by a ray of blood light. At that time, one of my wolf souls was instantly sucked out of my body by a demonic power. It was forcibly taken out of my body and shattered. That was how we managed to escape from this blood-red wasteland. "
While they were talking, they had already crossed a hundred miles of the blood-red wasteland. The blue mist lingered in front of them, it was hazy. The faintly discernible silhouette of a mountain could be seen.
Xiao Chen couldn't help but frown. The ancient tribe of the barbarian tribe and the jungle tribe was indeed a place brimming with mystery. Along the way, they had already seen a lot of similar unknown and bizarre scenes. There was an indescribable and terrifying danger concealed within.
Oxman shrunk his neck and said, "We have to take a detour. This is the Blue Mist Mountain. It is said that regardless of whether it is day or night, it is very sinister. Legend has it that a lot of blue-blooded ancestors died in there. The baleful energy is too strong. Since the ancient times until now, there has never been peace.
On the third day, Xiao Chen and the rest finally approached the sacred mountain of the barbarians. Although they were still a hundred miles away, they could already feel the abnormality there.
However, the scene was completely different from what they imagined. In Xiao Chen's understanding, since the sacred mountain was a cauldron refined by the ancestor god in the distant past, it was able to refine all living things. Even if the fire in the cauldron had already been extinguished, there might still be billowing black smoke soaring into the sky. Moreover, it became the dwelling place of the most powerful saint soul in the world. Even if it wasn't overflowing with demonic aura and gloomy fog, it should be more or less the same. At the very least, there should be a black fog lingering around.
And everything in front of Xiao Chen's eyes was completely different from what he imagined. Thousands of multicolored lights, tens of thousands of streaks of auspicious radiance. Although they were a few dozen miles away, the flowing lights and vibrant colors flew out one after another unceasingly. It was as beautiful as a meteor streaking across the night sky.
Moreover, there was faintly discernible celestial music ringing in the air. It was as if a passionate woman was playing a musical instrument with deep feelings.
"Don't be confused by the scene in front of you."
The little fatty Oxman reminded Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen expressed his understanding. After all, Oxman had been here before, he had a deep understanding of this place. Although the little fatty looked silly, he was without a doubt very astute. Otherwise, how could the elders in the Pure Land like him so much?
When the Black Dragon King arrived at this area, it was clearly a lot more cautious. It no longer flew forward at an extremely fast speed, it started to slow down its pace.
When they were fifty miles away, they could already see the faintly discernible trace of the legendary Cypreus Cauldron. After another dozen miles, they could clearly see it.
Xiao Chen was deeply shocked, was this really a mountain? It was so vast and boundless, it was like a thick and heavy earth that directly piled up high into the sky. The majestic sacred mountain occupied all the space in front of them. If they had to describe the mountain, it could be said to be "vast and boundless". It was so tall that it had already pierced into the clouds.
In front of it, one could deeply feel their own insignificance. It was like an ant looking at the blue dome of heaven. In front of this kind of oppressive ancient mountain, individual life forms were too insignificant.
"It's a very strange feeling, this is obviously a huge mountain. But why do I feel like it's even bigger than heaven and earth? "
Xiao Chen had some doubts in his heart, this was his true feeling.
The Black Dragon cautiously stopped, the little fatty Oxman jumped down from the dragon's back. Looking up at the boundless huge mountain, he said, "I heard from the old man Di Gui in the Pure Land that this is a Cypreus Cauldron. This is a Heaven and Earth Copper Furnace. Not only can it smelt everything, it can even smelt the entire world. "
"There's such a legend?"
Xiao Chen was a little shocked in his heart. It was not that he didn't believe those legends, there might be some truth hidden within them.
They were already less than twenty miles away from the sacred mountain, they could clearly see everything. One after another, brilliant lights flew out unceasingly, making the area in front of them gorgeous. The light mist was dense.
Of course, if one concentrated their spiritual sense and looked carefully, they could still see the real mountain clearly.
The towering mountain was majestic, there were many places on top of it that were bare, there was not the slightest trace of life. On the earth-gray mountain, there were many spots with bloodstains. That's right. Looking from afar, those scarlet areas were like mottled bloodstains, some yin mist lingered around them. There were also many places that were glittering with golden radiance, it was as if molten copper was boiling, surging with blazing radiance.
And some places were pitch-black, it was like a bottomless pit, one couldn't see the depth clearly, it was absorbing all the light from the outside world. These areas were not shrouded by colorful clouds. There were only endless shadows.
Of course, it was a towering mountain. It was not that there was not the slightest trace of life, if one looked carefully, they would notice that a few green belts were like life oases, they were isolated on the endless barren mountain.
"Fatty, wait for me here."
Xiao Chen didn't want Oxman to take the risk with him.
"What are you talking about, how can I not go up after coming here? Don't worry about me, I am not weaker than you. With Blackie, our strength can be considered to be not bad."
Oxman's strength could be said to have advanced by leaps and bounds. When they were on the dragon island, he might still be a bit weaker than Xiao Chen, but after escaping, the little fatty's luck was incomparably good. He was deeply liked by the old shaman of a certain tribe, he was bestowed with two powerful beast souls. Adding his own beast souls, as well as the divine wolf soul and tiger soul he seized from the barbarian youth Chaos on the dragon island, he had a total of five beast souls. Unfortunately, he didn't listen to the advice and narrowly escaped death at the Scarlet Blood Plain. Although he escaped the calamity, the divine wolf soul died in his place. Half a year ago, he was about to break through to the Historia realm, but when he couldn't find the right path, he came to the sacred mountain and obtained an ancient beast soul. After refining it into his body, he officially broke through to the Historia realm. All in all, the current little fatty Oxman was not any weaker than Xiao Chen.
After Xiao Chen knew about his training process, he couldn't help but sigh. No one was the only one favored by the heavens. There was this kind of Historia realm little fatty in this desolate mountain, and he didn't have any reputation in the outside world. Within the several ten thousand miles territory of the Jungle Tribe and the Barbarian Tribe, only heaven knows if there was a freak like Oxman.
"A few months ago, you already came here and obtained what you needed. You don't need to accompany me to take risks. I understand your intentions, I appreciate it."
Oxman shook his head and said, "Even without you, I would still enter the sacred mountain by myself. The barbarian's training method is different from yours. We must obtain a beast soul with unlimited potential to reach the pinnacle. Although my five souls have merged into one, I only have the ancient beast soul I obtained from the sacred mountain. However, it is definitely not the best beast soul with the highest potential. It might be able to cooperate with me at the current stage, but it might drag me down in the future. Thus, I want to come here to find a beast soul that truly belongs to me. "
Since he couldn't persuade him, Xiao Chen wouldn't waste his breath. Men were like this, one sentence was enough.
The two of them already arrived at the foot of the mountain. When they arrived at this place, they felt oppressed and trembling. The colorful clouds were lingering in the distance, but it was very different when they looked at it up close. The colorful clouds were all high up in the sky, far away from the sacred mountain. The sacred mountain was surrounded by endless bleakness and desolation. There wasn't the slightest bit of beauty to speak of.
Oxman said, "Some of the old priests from the big tribes said that the ancestral god Suiren failed to complete the refinement of the Cypreus Cauldron and abandoned it here. If he had succeeded, this world might have undergone an earth-shattering change. After all, legend has it that the ancestral god's cauldron could refine the heaven and earth! After that, for some unknown reason, if the powerful saint souls weren't extinguished, they would throw themselves into this place like moths to a flame. Even until now, no one can explain it clearly. "
The gloomy fog was drifting in the air. At the foot of the desolate sacred mountain, wisps of black gas were emitting from the grey earth. Xiao Chen and the rest had no choice but to release their protective aura to protect themselves.
After advancing three hundred meters to the top of the mountain, it didn't seem like they were climbing at all. It was more like they were walking uphill on the open ground. The main reason was that the sacred mountain was too grand, wide, and lofty.
Not long later, they arrived at a height of one kilometer. At this point, they had truly entered the dangerous zone. From time to time, a bloody mist drifted over. It cast a huge shadow, the smell of blood was very obvious.
"It's very dangerous ahead. I stopped here last time. "
Inside the Cypreus Cauldron, there would occasionally be a desperate battle. The defeated soul would often be chased all over the place. Last time, the little fatty was waiting for an opportunity here. He used the method taught by the old priest to absorb the powerful beast soul that had lost its nature.
"Quiet!"
Xiao Chen heard some kind of strange noise and hastily signaled to Oxman. The Black Dragon King was already on guard.
At first, the sound was still very weak, but then it became louder and louder. It sounded like a galloping horse. In the end, it sounded like a landslide or a tsunami. The rumbling sound was incomparably loud. It was as if a dam was breached and the mudstone rushed down the mountain.
"F * ck! Run quickly. "
The fatty pulled Xiao Chen and jumped onto the back of the black dragon. They turned around and fled.
On the mountain, a black wave was covering the sky and covering the earth. It was vast and mighty, carrying with it an endless amount of baleful aura. The demonic flame was surging as if there was a matchless demon stirring up trouble.
"F * ck, this is definitely a battle between the super saint souls. Not to mention us, even the elders of the Pure Land might not be able to withstand it! "
The little fatty Oxman was already on the verge of crying. He lamented, "Why are we so unlucky!"
The boundless black wave enveloped more than half of the sky. It swept away everything in its path. They could faintly see a few sinister huge monsters roaring and fighting fiercely inside.
What kind of tyrannical power was that? It made this entire region of the Sacred Mountain tremble violently! One must know that this was the Cypreus Cauldron refined by the ancestor god Suirenshi. It was impossible for ordinary power to shake it in the slightest.
"Quick! Turn around! "
Xiao Chen shouted loudly. If they rushed straight up, they would not be able to outrun that overflowing flood no matter how fast they were. The black energy wave was covering the sky and covering the earth.
The Black Dragon King was like a flash of lightning. It left behind a long streak of black light as it turned around and ran towards the right. The speed of a dragon represented the pinnacle of speed. Although the Black Dragon King was still in its infancy, it was still not to be underestimated.
It was extremely dangerous. The endless black waves roared and brushed past them. A few ferocious giant souls were like giants, fiercely fighting in the black energy waves.
"Oh my god!"
The little fatty Oxman let out a cry of surprise. He said, "I saw a Tyrannical Dragon inside just now! It actually has a dragon soul, this is too inconceivable. Furthermore, there are a few equally powerful saint souls! If … I can refine a king soul like this, ahhhhh … my future is not just a dream! "
The Black Dragon King's pair of dragon eyes were also staring at the boundless black energy wave without blinking. It was obvious that it also saw the Tyrannical Dragon's soul.
"With your current strength, it is impossible for you to control that kind of abnormal king soul. It is enough as long as you can find a beast king soul with unlimited potential. You still have to rely on yourself to train. "
"I know this logic, I am just lamenting."
Speaking until here, the little fatty Oxman's expression suddenly changed. He cried out in alarm, "Not good, they are coming back!"
The path to the bottom of the mountain was cut off, and a few unimaginable saint souls were rolling toward them with endless waves of black energy.
Xiao Chen wanted to take the fatty and soar into the sky, but he discovered that it was impossible. Although those brilliant lights spiraling down from the mountain peak were some distance away from the Sacred Mountain, they were actually imprisoned in the space. They were unable to soar into the sky.
"There is no other way, let's charge up the mountain first!"
"Alright, Blacky, hurry up!"
Charging up the sacred mountain was undoubtedly dangerous. The closer they got, the more powerful saint souls there would be.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen saw a patch of greenery in front of them. He shouted, "There is an oasis of life in front, let's quickly hide there!"
This oasis on the desolate ancient mountain was definitely not a good place. It was not destroyed by the black wave just now. This was enough to prove that it was not an ordinary place.
However, the current situation was urgent. Xiao Chen and the rest had no other choice. They could only think about these problems after they had evaded the danger behind them.
This was an extremely quiet forest. The ancient trees were as tall as the sky. Every ancient tree would require twenty or so people to wrap their arms around it. Who knew how many years it had been growing for.
The silence was frightening. Although the black wave was surging behind them, they could hear the sound of a needle dropping in this place. It made them feel very lonely and frightening.
After Xiao Chen and the rest rushed in, they discovered that the endless black wave actually took a detour around this place. It did not invade them.
"This place is very strange! Those super powerful souls did not invade, let's get out of here as soon as possible. "
Oxman's complexion was not very good. In this extremely quiet place, he seemed to have heard his own soul trembling.
"That's right, let's go quickly!"
Xiao Chen also had a bad premonition.
However, for some reason, the scales on the Black Dragon King's body blossomed with black light at this time. The reverse scale under its neck even opened up. Two terrifying rays of light shot out from its eyes as it fled towards the depths of the ancient forest.
