Chapter 72: Chapter 72: The Secret God Erges
The City Lord’s Mansion of Reincarnation City.
Shang Qingtian gazed intently at a trace of light in the pitch-black night sky, eyes shimring with an inexplicable excitent.
"City Lord..." All the officials of Reincarnation City had gathered in the courtyard, each with a different expression, so excited, others worried.
"How many years has it been since Reincarnation City was established?" Shang Qingtian did not turn around, still staring at the faintly visible mysterious light in the sky as he asked.
"When Reincarnation City was founded, it was still the Emperor Ancestor era, and it was the third year since the Pingdu Mountain Blessed Land was discovered. That was nearly 2,800 years ago." A middle-aged scholar said ponderously.
"Two thousand eight hundred and sixty-four years. Since that ti, my Shang Family has already built this city, guarding it for generations. I am already the seventeenth City Lord of Reincarnation City, and finally, we are still here waiting."
The light in Shang Qingtian’s eyes soared: "The calculation of the ghost Daoist back then was indeed correct. The Secret God of Pingdu Mountain Blessed Land is bound to erge from the Ghost King Mountain Range. We have waited for two thousand eight hundred and sixty-four years, and still, we have waited long enough."
"As the Secret God erges, the entire Pingdu Mountain Blessed Land has been sealed off, with those inside unable to get out and those outside unable to get in. With our current strength of Reincarnation City, I fear it will be difficult to hold the Ghost King Mountain Range..." the middle-aged scholar said worriedly.
"Since we can’t hold it, there’s no need to keep guarding it. If they wish to co, let them all co." Shang Qingtian said calmly.
"But what if the spiritual opportunities of the Secret God are seized by others..." soone expressed concern.
"If it’s yours, others can’t take it away. If it’s not yours, you can’t keep it either," Shang Qingtian looked up at the sky and said peacefully: "Withdraw all the guards from the Ghost King Mountain Range, open the Ghost King Mountain Range."
In all the cities across the Pingdu Mountain Blessed Land, countless strong individuals were staring at the flickering, mysterious light in the sky, their eyes filled with greed.
Many City Lords were already leading their teams towards the Ghost King Mountain Range. Although the influence of Reincarnation City is the largest in the Pingdu Mountain Blessed Land, there are many forces within the Blessed Land, and even Reincarnation City’s power is insufficient to contend with everyone.
Wang Lian, who had been searching for Chen Guan, also saw the anomaly in the sky and was both shocked and delighted.
"Uncle Ying... The spawning of a Secret God... Isn’t this the first ti in the Pingdu Mountain Blessed Land..." Wang Lian looked at the elderly man with graying hair beside him and said.
"Third Princess, it is indeed the first ti that the spawning of a Secret God has appeared in the Pingdu Mountain Blessed Land. I’m afraid at this mont, all major forces are already heading towards the Ghost King Mountain Range. Such an opportunity cannot be missed, and we need to take action too. We may not be able to continue searching for that person for the ti being." Uncle Ying bowed and said.
"The spawning of a Secret God is a major event, naturally, the bigger picture takes precedence. I will go with you to the Ghost King Mountain Range," Wang Lian imdiately said.
"Very well, with your fortune, Third Princess, you will surely be able to harvest sothing." Uncle Ying nodded in agreent, simultaneously issuing orders for the hidden mbers in each city to rush towards the Ghost King Mountain Range.
The entire Pingdu Mountain Blessed Land went into madness, almost all cultivators, irrespective of their levels, gathered towards the Ghost King Mountain Range.
"Is this the ergence and spawning of a Secret God?" Chen Guan realized its significance only when Duan Shulin exclaid about the ergence of a Secret God.
The phenonon of the Secret God’s ergence and spawning has happened many tis over three thousand years. It was always thought that this situation would occur only once per Secret Realm, but a few hundred years ago, a Secret Realm experienced it a second ti, overturning previous assumptions.
To this day, no one can clearly say what on earth a Secret God is because, no matter in which Secret Realm, though the phenona of a Secret God’s spawning vary, no one can see clearly what the things in the phenona truly are nor enter into them when they occur.
It’s just that one can glimpse a partial view from the twinkling, as one sees a glimpse of an elephant through a narrow crack. No one knows what this so-called Secret God truly is.
It is called a Secret God, first of all, because it is speculated that the phenona conceal Secret Spirits that are comparable to deities, thus dubbed as Secret Gods.
Another reason is that many Secret Spirit Eggs will fall from the phenonon, but the Secret Spirits within these eggs are not of the sa species, with grades and types all differing. Low-level Secret Spirit Eggs might even hatch Secret Spirits without any grade.
High-level Secret Spirit Eggs will directly manifest as World-Defying Secret Spirits.
There is even a legend that among the Secret Spirit Eggs spawned by a Secret God, there exists a being that surpasses World-Defying Secret Spirits.
Of course, this is just a legend, as no one has ever co forward claiming to have obtained a Spirit Pet surpassing a World-Defying Secret Spirit.
"To unexpectedly encounter the spawning of a Secret God, it’s unsure whether it is fortune or misfortune." Chen Guan watched the phenonon in the sky, contemplating whether to stay and wait for the spawning of a Secret God.
Looking at the recorded data on the spawning of Secret Gods, each situation seems sowhat different.
So Secret Gods spawn very few Secret Spirit Eggs, even as few as just one, while others produce a large number, up to nearly a million Secret Spirit Eggs in one spawning event.
But one thing is the sa, when the Secret Spirit Eggs fly out from the phenonon, they fall rapidly in different directions, requiring one’s own ability to compete for them.
As for where exactly the Secret Spirit Eggs will land, it is difficult to estimate, and there is no fixed plan. Generally speaking, they appear closest to where the Secret God’s spawning phenonon first occurred, but anywhere within a hundred miles is possible, depending also on so luck.
Chen Guan thought for a mont before turning to leave; this is the place of the Secret God’s ergence, the most likely location for the Secret Spirit Eggs to fall, unquestionably the most intensely competitive location, potentially transforming into a bloody battlefield.
By that ti, even cultivators of the Second Awakening or Third Awakening might fight and kill here. With Chen Guan’s current level, he certainly does not intend to remain here as cannon fodder.
"Hey Guan, don’t be so hasty to leave, let’s have a chat." Duan Shulin limped over.
"Chat about what?" Chen Guan glanced at Duan Shulin with so suspicion; this guy dared to co looking for him, truly unafraid of him silencing him.
"Of course, it’s about the spawning of a Secret God; this isn’t the place to talk. Let’s go out and find a safe, deserted place to discuss." Duan Shulin lowered his voice, speaking secretly.
Thoughts raced through Chen Guan’s mind: "Could it be related to the Nether Lotus? Did we cause the ergence and spawning of the Secret God by extracting the Nether Lotus, and it seems this Duan Shulin knows sothing. If that’s true, he can’t let the matter of obtaining the Nether Lotus be known."
With a nod, Chen Guan walked out with Duan Shulin.
As they left, many cultivators were running towards White Cloud Stream, and more were coming.
Duan Shulin was seriously injured, relying on dicine to survive and could not move quickly. By the ti they reached the exit of White Cloud Stream, all the guards had already been withdrawn, and even the erected wall was pushed down, with masses of people cramming in.
They managed to squeeze out only with difficulty, and more people were still rushing over.
"Chen Guan." As Chen Guan was heading towards a spot with fewer people, trying to get away, suddenly soone called his na, a very familiar voice at that.
He turned his head and saw a group of people stationed on a nearby hill, among them a woman in red armor and a red helt, riding a Fire Qilin, looking at him.
"Ji Nanhong!" Chen Guan was sowhat surprised, not expecting to see Ji Nanhong here.
