Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 549 – Mountaineering

The beast tide outside the Southern Viewing County had already been dispersed, and the Martial Realm Cultivator that was guarding the city had already begun to chase after and killing the scattered beasts. It was extremely possible for the beasts to have immortal spirits in their bodies, and the fur and bones of the savage beasts could also be good spirit materials.

A total of two to three thousand beasts had fallen under the county, many of them having been devoured by their own kind after death. When the beast tide had dispersed, they had been dragged away by other beasts.

On top of the city walls, the Profound Earth Sect’s cultivators were already organizing the repair of the destroyed city walls. However, Adept Jing Chen and the other two Spiritual Masters had still yet to leave the city walls, as if they were waiting for someone.

The two horns and a piece of leather were the best objects for this dire beast. The former could be used to make two middle-grade spirit-material ox-horns short swords, curved blades, or other spiritual tools, while the latter could be used to makigh-grade robe.

The only pity was that he couldn’t find the yellow ox. The yellow ox of a Mountain Crash Bull could be used as an immortal spirit. The yellow ox of a Mountain Crash Bull waigh grade medicinal ingredient needed for refining pills, especially for a Mountain Crash Bull like a dire beast.

Of course, whether or not Spiritual Master Zhou was able to gather the materials to make the two treasures, how long would it take for him to do so? This was something that Spiritual Master Zhou’s family needed to consider.

In contrast to Spiritual Master Zhou’s excitement, Spiritual Master Cai was a lot more disappointed. In the end, the bristled pig that he had been fighting with ran away. This seemingly innocent and silly dire beast was actually the most alert of all the headless dire beasts.

As for the pack of wolves that had been entangled with the cultivators of the Black Scale School such as the Adept Jing Chen, after losing the support of the White-headed Giant Hawk and the Earth Stolen Rat, just one wolf king was naturally not a match for the Adept Jing Chen. After the Wolf King had been killed, the rest of the wolves were also slaughtered by the severely injured disciples of the Black Scale Sect.

“So you’re saying that the Jun Shan is actually the that was chased by the Snow Wind Sword Sect’s true disciple Qi Min a few years ago?” Spiritual Master Zhou casually asked.

“He’s already a Spiritual Master of Gangli Accumulation Realm!” Adept Jing Chen’s tone was calm, no emotions could be discerned.

Master Zhou was startled, but Daoist Master Cai sighed: “At that time, although there was a change in the glaciers and the Snow Wind Sword Sect was split apart, at that time, the disappearance of three Successor Disciples from the glaciers in Snow Wind Sword Sect was still rather eye-catching. Amongst the three of them, there was that Qi Min, and now not only has Spiritual Master Yang appeared, his cultivation has even risen to the Gangli Accumulation Realm in the short span of three to four years, hehe …”

The three Spiritual Masters chatted nonchalantly on top of the city wall. At this time, Adept Jing Chen’s expression changed and a look of surprise surfaced on his face. He then turned around and looked to the west of the city.

When the other two Spirit Masters saw this, they were puzzled, “Earlier, when Daoist Master Yang left, he was looking towards the east, right? Why is Adept Jing Chen looking to the west? Could it be that there are other Dao Masters coming as well?”

A ray of light from the west descended, who else could it be other than Yang Junshan?

However, Yang Junshan’s expression was a little strange, but this strange look only flashed past his eyes.

Originally, Yang Junshan was outside of the forest about fifteen kilometers east of the city. However, because he saw that the ground stealing rat was actually able to perform a spell similar to the Earth Escape Technique, Yang Junshan became excited and tried to use the power within the stone to perform the Earth Escape Technique in the direction of the city.

At the start, Yang Junshan had only used the Earth Disappearing Spirit Technique to a distance of fifty kilometers away, and after he advanced Gangli Accumulation Realm, he was able to use this technique to a distance of seventy to eighty kilometers. Because his cultivation realm had not stabilized completely, the effects of the sacred art were also somewhat repeated.

However, when Yang Junshan used the Earth Disappearing Spirit Art, the nine man true energy in his body began to circulate, and instantly activated the strange power within the strange rock. Yang Junshan’s consciousness instantly had a sort of sensing, as if the sturdy earth beneath the ground, as he was trying to escape underground, was all moving to the sides at the same time.

When Yang Junshan finally reached his limit and jumped out of the ground, he realized that he was already over ten kilometers away from the southern city, which was about fifty kilometers to the west of the county city. And the distance between here and the previous forest was abouundred kilometers!

What exactly is this strange stone?

Even though Yang Junshan could not recognize the origin of the strange stone, just by its ability to increase the might of his innate technique, he knew that it was definitely not a small matter.

He had a feeling that before he thoroughly understood the origins of this strange stone, it would be best if he did not reveal this item in front of others as he pleased.

“Fellow cultivator Jun Shan, if it were not for Fellow Daoist’s generosity, I’m afraid that I would have fallen to the crime of throwing the city away from the sect. My Black Scale Sect and the other factions under it have no idea how many cultivators will be buried in the beast tide, I hope that Fellow Daoist can accept this bow!”

Spiritual Master Zhou and Dao Master Cai helplessly looked at each other, then bowed and said, “Please accept our respect, Fellow Daoist!”

Yang Junshan immediately sidestepped, and helped the three of them up, and said: “What are the three of you doing, for no reason at all, I am only doing it, I did it with a little effort, but I did not deserve the three of you to do it!”

Adept Jing Chen introduced Yang Junshan to the two Spiritual Masters Zhou and Cai. After the four Spiritual Masters exchanged greetings, Yang Junshan asked: “The three of you, do you know the reason why a beast wave will occur?”

The Adept Jing Chen said, “This could be related to the large scale movement in the Coldjade mountain range earlier. These savage beasts are the most sensitive, and they might have sensed the danger that came before the large scale movement and escaped the mountain range, resulting in a large scale beast tide.”

However, Yang Junshan heard something from Adept Jing Chen’s words. He frowned and asked, “Large scale?”

Adept Jing Chen held a few Message Talisman talismans in his hands and said with a serious expression, “The news that came from the sect caused a large scale movement in the Coldjade mountain range. Not only the Southern Viewing County, but even the neighboring Southern Lin County also erupted with a large scale beast wave attack.

When Adept Jing Chen said till here, his tone paused, while Zhou and Cai, the two Spiritual Masters beside him, also seemed a little uncomfortable. Yang Junshan had seen all of these, but he was not stupid enough to ask about the reason.

The Adept Jing Chen continued: “Not only on the Pure county side, the three southern counties that are connected to the Coldjade mountain range all suffered from a beast tide attack, and before the beast tide arrived, a large scale earth movement occurred in the Coldjade mountain range.”

Yang Junshan said in shock: “The distance between the Southern Three Prefectures and the Coldjade mountain range is no less than ten thousand kilometers. Could it be that within such a long distance, the Coldjade mountain range has been shaken?”

Adept Jing Chen’s expression was clearly not too good, and he said: “I’m afraid so.”

Yang Junshan frowned a little as he thought about it. He asked, “Dao Friend Pure Dust, for such a large-scale beast tide attack, do the various great sects of Liang Zhou not know the reason?”

The Adept Jing Chen said: “I believe the sect will soon dispatch cultivators to the Coldjade mountain range to investigate. The various sects will probably not fall behind.”

Yang Junshan then said: “Then, Fellow Daoist Pure Dust, are you interested to accompany me on this expedition to the mountain range?”

Adept Jing Chen was moved upon hearing this, but he still said regretfully: “The sect’s duty is, if I do not have the sect’s instructions, then I will not leave. I will have to apologize, but if Fellow Daoist is willing to rest in the county, perhaps you can come to my sect’s other cultivators …”

Yang Junshan shook his head regretfully, and said: “Then so be it, since Fellow Daoist is responsible, then let me first investigate the Coldjade mountain range.”

Yang Junshan left as soon as he said he would leave, he cupped his hands with the three of them and turned to leave, in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared into the southern horizon, while the Adept Jing Chen on top of the city wall looked at Yang Junshan who was walking away confidently, with a look of envy.

“Is this kid stupid? He even said that he was once on par with the Successor Disciples of the Snow Wind Sword Sect. Does he think that after the beast tide appears, the power of the savage beasts in the mountain will weaken?”

“That’s right. The ground movement has disturbed the weaker beasts, but the truly powerful savage beasts will still remain in the mountain range. Moreover, they will become even more violent. Entering the mountain at this time is definitely the most dangerous time.”

Zhou and Cai were singing the same tune, but to Adept Jing Chen, it was just a sneer. How could these two short-sighted people understand the heart of a strong warrior seeking victory?

Yang Junshan naturally knew that this was the most dangerous time to enter the mountain, but at the same time, he also knew that if some earth-shattering thing were to happen in the Coldjade mountain range, then this was also the time of his greatest opportunity.

The reason he invited Adept Jing Chen was because the two of them had a good relationship before, they knew each other’s strength, and valued each other’s cultivation and strength.

But just as Adept Jing Chen had said, wait for the Black Scale Sect’s reinforcements to rush in, not to mention the time being delayed, and even the Black Scale Sect’s troops coming in, how could Yang Junshan, by himself, receive the equal treatment of the Black Scale Sect after entering the Coldjade mountain range.

At this time, Yang Junshan could only take the lead. As long as he could find out what had happened in the Coldjade mountain range before the various great sects and powers of the Liang Zhou reacted, he would be able to obtain his share of the spoils. Otherwise, Yang Junshan could only follow these great sects and pick up the loot, hoping to get some leftover benefits.

The gigantic Icy Jade Mountain Range was filled with miasma and miasma. Normally, people would not be able to see its majestic look, but today, Yang Junshan had already arrived in front of the mountain range, but he was still unable to see the blurry figure of a mountain peak clearly. The miasma in the mountain had become even thicker.
