Chapter 326: Heading to the Mountain Peak
Wuxia Dream/Mercurial - -
In the morning of the next day, many warriors had already gathered at the foot of the Sacred Light Mountain, looking up toward the peak of the mountain and quietly giving compliments.
The first beam of sunlight shining behind the Sacred Light Mountain was magnified after traveling across the mountain. Only one gleam of light was enough to dazzle people’s eyes.
That ray of light seemed to have been reflected many times by the Sacred Light Mountain, and thus, that blinding sunlight had already covered the mountain peak in just a short time. Many warriors at the foot of the mountain raised their heads looking up, seeing the blazing yellow light have already engulfed the entire Sacred Light Mountain.
The Sacred Light Mountain looked as if it was gold-plated under the sun, which was extremely dazzling.
Until the sun had gradually raised up, countless light rays shined, turning the Sacred Light Mountain into a golden mountain with shining yellow halo that gave people a feeling of admiration and respect.
The Sacred Light Mountain emitted an impetuous aura and wallowed in the sunlight like the majestic Mountain of Gods.
There was an imposing castle looked as if it was floating amid white clouds on the peak of the mountain. The scene was like a dream fairyland, which got a lot of compliments, whispers, and comments from many warriors who couldn’t help but ask for their predecessors’ permission to visit the Sacred Light Mountain’s peak.
At the foot of the mountain, LiFu and other ten disciples of Three Gods Sect were cautiously watching over a small road in the yellow hue,
The entire Sacred Light Mountain was immersed in the sunlight, emitted the tremendous aura that terrified other people.
Disciples of Three Gods Sect were taking strict guard, preventing other people from getting inside.
LiFu was standing at the beginning section of the small road, waiting in silence.
After a short while, two master leaders of the Endless Sea, Yuqin and GuShao quietly appeared, heading to LiFu together.
Those who were standing at the foot of the mountain were terrified. Many of them had never seen these two leaders of the two big forces, so they frighteningly cast furtive glances at them but couldn’t stand passionately staring at Gu LingLung and Qu YanQing with excited faces.
Yiqin and GuShao slowly walked over in front of LiFu then handed him two golden invitation cards. LiFu respectfully bent down, receiving the two invitation cards and inviting them to go up to the mountain peak.
Yuqin and GuShao gently nodded then moderately walked toward the mountain. They both knew that the rule here didn’t allow them to fly, so they just gently stepped forward but with breakneck speed.
Gu LingLung and Qu YanQing wanted to enter, but LiFu stopped them. “I am sorry, but this is a special case. Only those who have golden invitation cards are permitted to enter, and plus, each invitation is only for one person.”
LiFu embarrassedly smiled, stretching his arms to impede the two of them and shaking his head.
“Hmm, this time, it is weird.”
“That’s right. It seems to be very strict this time. None of the irrelevant people are allowed to walk in.”
“This meeting seems to be very important. Unqualified people are not authorized to get in.”
“Yes.”
“..”
Everyone was boisterously discussing, curiously looking up toward the mountain peak with dazed faces.
In the clamorous noise, Gu LingLung’s and Qu YanQing’s faces didn’t look good. However, facing LiFu’s tactful rejection, they couldn’t do anything but stopped at the foot of the mountain, looking ahead.
The surrounding crowd quickly parted to give way while the noise seemed to cool down.
The crowd felt comfortable and elated while being immersed in the warm sunlight.
Suddenly, a flow of cold air came in, zooming over everyone’s backs. A bizarre person in a black tunic and a grim mask was quietly approaching from afar. Yin Hai and the other disciples of Corpses God Sect were bending and walking behind him with gloomy faces and emotionless eyes like the dead.
A flow of miasmal aura that could intimidate people was covering the entire area.
Leading ahead was the Hierarchy of Corpses God Sect whose eyes were as peculiar as the dancing fen-fires. All of the warriors there unconsciously bowed their heads, didn’t dare to look straight into his eyes whenever his eyes scanned over them. Some of them even couldn’t stand but take a few steps backward in panic.
Corpses God Sect was the most devilish and mysterious sect in the Endless Sea. They made friends with corpses all day long and thus obviously had the icy miasmal aura that scared other people out of their wits.
Wherever the Corpses God Sect’s members appeared, they had never encountered any obstacles on their way as people automatically gave way to them.
Even LiFu’s face changed a little bit, didn’t look well.
Qingming quietly walked forward with his fen-fire eyes then took out the golden invitation card and threw it to LiFu.
LiFu caught the invitation card and conducted the inviting gesture. However, Qingming didn’t hurriedly get in; instead, he stopped, standing motionlessly right on the spot.
Everyone was stunned, looking at him with the doubtful look without knowing whom he was waiting for.
Not long after that, ShiYan, together with the three people of Yi TianMo’s group, appeared from afar, walking toward the foot of the mountain.
As soon as ShiYan had arrived, plenty of people slightly screamed in admiration as they had witnessed the fight between ShiYan and Man Gu and understood how mighty ShiYan was. They immediately turned to the ones who hadn’t seen that fight and told them the story.
The hearts of many beautiful girls had been stirred after having seen ShiYan’s sturdy body as well as his cold and firm momentum. Their eyes rippled while their souls kept vibrating nonstop, creating some kind of miraculous emotions.
Gu LingLung and Qu YanQing were standing on the way in. They knitted their eyebrows as soon as they saw Shi Yan approaching, but they then instantly felt dispirited when seeing the surrounding people’s admiring eyes.
Gu LingLung’s eyes were flooded with resentment as she gritted her teeth, bit her lips and couldn’t help but snort. Qu YanQing lamented in her heart with complicated eyes, which now tightly fixed on ShiYan, glinting with strange beams of light. Nobody knew what she was thinking.
ShiYan walked over in front of LiFu, threw an astonished glance at Qingming of Corpses God Sect and then nodded toward him with a smile.
“Let’s go together?” Qingming gently invited with a voice that was indescribably miasmal like a poisonous snake sticking out its tongue, very unpleasant to others’ ears.
“Ah!” A lot of people couldn’t help but scream, bewilderedly looking at Shi Yan then Qingming.
They would never understand why the hierarchy of Corpses God Sect had been waiting for a brat like Shi Yan.
In their mind, the person whom Qing Ming had been waiting for should be the Lords of powerful forces like Yu Qin and Gu Shao.
Although everyone knew that ShiYan was the member of the Yang family, he was still just a descendant of Emperor. So why Qingming had to be humble waiting for him?
Everyone was quietly discussing but still, couldn’t find any reasonable explanation for this.
“Alright.” Under astonished eyes of other people, ShiYan revealed a smile, took out the golden invitation card and handed it to LiFu. Again, people were more curious about Shi Yan as they saw he was presenting the invitation card. They wondered why Tang YuanNan had directly sent him the invitation card.
“Young master Yan, please.” LiFu bent down, revealing a flattering smile. “Yong master Yan, you might not have known about the Three Gods Sect’s rule. Let me tell you a little bit. The Sacred Light Mountain has the formation technique that forbids flying, which means you can only walk. Please be noticed.”
ShiYan faintly smiled and nodded gently. He then quickly passed LiFu gliding effortlessly up to the mountain, which greatly surprised other people.
Qingming’s eyes flared up a beam of light as he seemed to be a little suspicious. He thus stopped at the entrance for a few seconds, turning his head around looking at the three people of Yi TianMo’s group from a distance.
The three of them were mingling in the crowd who immediately stepped far away from them due to the icy aura from their bodies. Nobody dared to stand close to them in the range of ten meters, which was extremely weird.
Under Qingming’s scrutinizing look, the three of them sat down while their eyes became dark and cold. They then closed their eyes, meditating.
Qingming was a little startled while a suspicion grew bigger in his heart. He gently shook his head, doubtfully looking toward Shi Yan’s back ahead and then followed Shi Yan heading to the Sacred Light Mountain after a little hesitance.
ShiYan leisurely walked forward, heading to the mountain peak with a stony face.
Shi Yan’s right arm weighed around fifteen thousand kilograms. Without the Profound Qi, it was as if he was walking and carrying along a big mountain preventing him from comfortably moving.
The anomaly of the arm made ShiYan happy and worried at the same time. He felt happy because the hidden forces in this arm actively agitated him; meanwhile, he was worried because this mutant arm significantly influenced the balance of his body.
With the right arm heavily hanging on the right side, small sound always came up every time his right leg landed. On the way to the Sacred Light Mountain, he had noticed it and repeatedly tried different ways to avoid revealing this strange peculiarity.
“Very weird.” Qingming’s feeble voice came up from behind Shi Yan.
ShiYan knitted his eyebrows, turned his head looking at Qingming’s flickering eyes and asked, “What is weird?”
“I feel strange because the Profound Qi in your body seems to have totally drained. Nothing remains.” Qingming said with a cold and dreary voice, “Even if you are exhausted after fighting with someone, you can still gather the Sky and Earth aura to condense into Profound Qi after a short time later. Your body’s current situation truly surprises me.”
“My Martial Spirit has encountered some problems, and thus it has hardly gathered Profound Qi. It is probably not easy to solve this matter.” ShiYan beamed a cold smile while his bright, sharp eyes stared at Qingming then asked, “Are you satisfied with this answer?”
Qingming’s eyes glinted with the strange light, the dancing flame inside them became fierce as if it could jump out at any time.
“Be careful with him. The Heaven Flame inside his body is vibrating strongly; he might have a murderous intention.” The Ice Cold Flame inside the Blood Vein Ring sent out a message to Shi Yan.
ShiYan was neglectful; his eyes became glacial.
