This is a tundra that has existed since the Desolate Ancient Era, with a complex and perilous terrain where nurous exotic beings lurk within.
For many years, almost no cultivator who has unwittingly ventured deep into Purple Jing Mountain has managed to co out alive.
It is exceedingly dangerous. Though not as perilous as a true Life Forbidden Area, it is still a place of almost certain death.
Moreover, it is said that Saint Realm Level primordial creatures have appeared deep within Purple Jing Mountain.
Walking in such an environnt is almost indistinguishable from venturing into a Life Forbidden Area.
"Speaking of which, with the recent disturbances in Purple Jing Mountain, there have indeed been many masters from top-tier powers arriving in Red Cloud City. The Hidden Dragon and Qing Ling Sacred Lands, for example, reportedly have at least five Supre Elder Level powerhouses here, and so ancient emperor family experts have also appeared. It seems like there’s an intention to push deep into Purple Jing Mountain."
On the second floor of Celestial Fragrance Tower, listening to the discussion, Yu Yuanshan couldn’t help but say, "Could it be that these forces are truly determined to obtain the source of the Profound Yellow Ancestral Qi?"
"Just what is this source of the Profound Yellow Ancestral Qi?" Ji Chen asked curiously.
Yu Yuanshan explained, "It’s akin to a vein of Spirit Stones. If one truly discovers the source of the Profound Yellow Ancestral Qi, it’s equivalent to obtaining an endless supply of it. According to so elders’ calculations, a single vein would have at least a million jin of Profound Yellow Ancestral Qi, and even a smaller vein would contain hundreds of thousands of jin."
"So much!" Ji Chen exclaid in surprise, taken aback.
In Celestial Martial, a hundred jin of Origin Qi is extrely hard to find.
To think a vein could contain hundreds of thousands to near a million jin!
If he could obtain such a vein, he was confident his Hongng Body could achieve Great Success, and then, if his physical body first reached the Saint level, he could have several thousand years of lifespan.
"Tonight, there’s a gathering of young talents in Red Cloud City, and it’s said that the Hidden Dragon Saint Heir and Saintess Qing Ling will appear. They seem to want to recruit so young talents to accompany them into Purple Jing Mountain, hence this gathering."
Upon learning this news, Ji Chen and Yu Yuanshan quickly left Celestial Fragrance Tower.
They headed towards the northern part of Red Cloud City.
Soon, a refined garden appeared before them.
The gathering was taking place there tonight.
As night had already fallen, many young geniuses started to co out and walk around at this ti.
In the garden, Ji Chen and Yu Yuanshan arrived there.
Looking around, they saw that many young faces, all with notable backgrounds, were gathered there. They were either outstanding figures from a Sacred Land or elite mbers of an ancient emperor lineage, with prodigies abound.
"Does anyone know where the Hidden Dragon Saint Heir and Saintess Qing Ling are now? My Yu Family has good relations with both these major forces. If they truly wish to recruit so young prodigies to enter Purple Jing Mountain, perhaps I could introduce Brother Ji to them," Yu Yuanshan offered.
He knew that Ji Chen’s main reason for coming was the Profound Yellow Ancestral Qi in the mountain.
However, the depths of Purple Jing Mountain were incredibly dangerous, and going alone was a severe risk to one’s life. Accompanying the powerhouses from these major forces would naturally be a good thing for Ji Chen.
After all, Yu Yuanshan was the Third Young Master of the Yu Family. While his cultivation might not match the top Saint Heirs of the ti, his status and position weren’t too far behind. Given the Yu Family’s good relations with both Qing Ling and Hidden Dragon Sacred Lands, introducing Ji Chen to their ranks wouldn’t be difficult.
"Brother Ji, you enjoy yourself here for a while. I’ll go look for them?" he suggested.
Ji Chen nodded at these words, not declining.
After all, from everyone’s discussions, he learned that the crises within Purple Jing Mountain were abundant, and venturing alone was too dangerous. Traveling with those from top-tier forces would indeed avoid many unnecessary troubles.
Yu Yuanshan soon left, leaving Ji Chen alone.
He strolled around the garden leisurely, feeling that it had indeed been a long ti since he felt this relaxed.
He ca upon a pavilion.
Ji Chen intended to take so fresh fruits and fine wine from the stone table in the pavilion, eating while wandering.
"Speaking of contemporary heroes, few can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Hidden Dragon Saint Heir and Saintess Qing Ling. These two are our realm’s young kings, having been renowned in Daoxuan for many years, with few peers that can contend with them."
"Are you familiar with Ning Bufan from the Celestial Anomaly Star? This person is known as a Banished Immortal, not a genius cultivated by any Sacred Land or the Ancient Emperor Race, but rather from a second-tier power called ’Absolute Mountain Sect.’ It’s said that he obtained a destiny-defying opportunity early on and now wields two Emperor Scriptures, his strength unfathomably deep."
"And there’s Xu Yunzhou from Celestial Star, also one of the few contemporary young kings acknowledged in Daoxuan..."
On one side of the pavilion, so people gathered, discussing certain figures.
Ji Chen took a bunch of grapes, sat down beside the pavilion, and ate while listening. Their topic centered around so of the top-tier talents of today, all of whom were hot discussion figures.
"Ning Bufan of the Absolute Mountain Sect, reputed to be the reincarnation of a Banished Immortal, acts very low-key. Although not as famous as Saintess Qing Ling or the Hidden Dragon Saint Heir, he holds two Emperor Scriptures. His future achievents will certainly not be beneath those of other young kings," soone remarked.
"Our Celestial Martial also has many young powerhouses: Donghuang Divine Body Jiang Yan, Beiyou Dao Body Gu Hao, and Hongng Body Ji Chen, all entities that could dominate the Daoxuan Star Realm. Haven’t you heard of them?"
Just then, a square-faced young man joined the crowd and, hearing the discussions, couldn’t help but speak up.
"Celestial Martial?"
"It seems to be located at the far northern end of the Daoxuan Star Realm? That ancient star is too remote, and only recently did its boundary walls open, linking it with other realms."
"What kind of geniuses could such a place have?"
"Divine Body, Dao Body, Hongng Body, never heard of them. They might be remarkable in a place like Celestial Martial, but looking at the entire Daoxuan Star Realm, they probably don’t even rank," soone couldn’t help but scoff.
It wasn’t because they were arrogant, but because that’s the reality.
In the dozens of realms of Daoxuan, the overall power of Celestial Martial is indeed at the very bottom.
So ti ago, Ji Chen underwent the Celestial Essence Tribulation, repelling the shadow of a young Ancient Emperor. This matter sparked a lot of discussions outside the realm, but compared to the vast star domain, too few truly knew Ji Chen’s na.
Moreover, in this vast star domain, talent is the least scarce thing.
In an environnt like Celestial Martial, it’s hard to believe it could produce an exceptionally dazzling genius.
"The Donghuang Divine Body is said to be the foremost among the Nine Great Ancient Physiques of Celestial Martial? Have you really never heard of it?"
"And what about Hongng Body Ji Chen? He recently broke through to the Celestial Essence Realm, repelled the ancient emperor phantom arising from a Celestial Tribulation. You should’ve heard about this?" The square-faced young man from Celestial Martial furrowed his brows.
It’s evident that Celestial Martial being his place of origin, now disparaged by these outer realm geniuses, made him understandably agitated, wanting to prove sothing.
