chanic God Mountain, from the Ancient Era’s First Epoch to the New Era’s Second Epoch, was consistently modest yet consistently powerful.
Among the Eight Mountains, perhaps only the most mysterious "Primordial Mountain" could compete with them.
The rest of the six mountains were all ranked lower, only able to look up at their proud deanor, never to match stride for stride.
"Woong woong woong—"
The New Era’s Second Epoch, year 1078.
With the last Teleportation Array activated, Ye Hanjun finally glimpsed the exterior silhouette of this Divine Mountain.
It did not sprawl across the land like ordinary peaks, winding and undulating.
Nor did it have towering summits piercing the clouds, standing between heaven and earth, looking down on the mundane world, detached from all else.
What t Ye Hanjun’s eyes was rely a huge, floating iron sphere.
Beneath it was a pillar, wider at the bottom and narrower at the top, completely white, resembling ancient architecture, imbued with the majesty of years.
And this black iron ball, in absolute stillness, hovered atop the tip of the pillar as if, even with the end of the world, its foundation would not be shaken.
"Wow..."
GuaGua, Huazhu, Goose Immortal, Lieyang Mushoucong, were all stunned.
Ye Hanjun snapped back from his daze, pointing again in the direction of the iron sphere towards Xiahou Danxin, whose face was aglow with fervor, not concealing his own confusion.
"That’s right! This is the chanic God Mountain!"
"The Prival Coronate - Hand of chanism completely remodeled the original mountain, constructing an impenetrable defense system!"
"Then, during the Near Ancient Era, the Second Generation Coronate - Heart of chanism expanded and upgraded it further!"
"21,000 years later, it has beco like this, inside and out a Copper Wall, Iron Barrier, possessing the firmness of tal and rock; even Divine Enthronent would not dream of breaching it directly!"
Xiahou Danxin, astride the chanical gazelle king, had blood-red eyes; as he roared loudly, tears and snot poured forth.
How many years had it been? How many years since he had returned?
He was born here, once considered a shining talent; how had he co to such a desolate and lonely end?
"Mother! I’m back!"
"Grandfather, are you still alive? Little Dan misses you!"
Xiahou Danxin pounded on the back of the chanical gazelle king, ignoring the bruises forming on his arms, suddenly hysterical and frantic:
"And Lian Yun... Lian Shan... Are you doing alright?"
"It’s all my fault as an older brother, causing you to bear the scorn of others; my sin... is unforgivable..."
GuaGua, excited, and Goose Immortal, eager, gradually fell silent.
Including Lie Xinxin, Shi Li, Ye Liuying... everyone watched Xiahou Danxin’s tearful breakdown, as if hitting the mute button, the group beca silent and wordless.
"Old man... stop crying."
"Whatever cri you committed, aren’t you still looking to right your wrongs?"
"After so much effort to return, you can’t enter the holand you long for in such a disheveled and pitiful state, right?"
GuaGua spat out a Water Gun, hitting Xiahou Danxin’s face, giving him a bone-chilling coldness.
Xiahou Danxin remained unmoved, his body still lowered, his shoulders convulsively twitching, clearly unable to quell his inner emotions.
"Elder, we have reached the gate of chanic God Mountain."
"Now that we’re here, isn’t it ti you told us about the ’mistake’ you once made?"
Ye Hanjun stepped forward slowly, inquiring with a gentle tone and patience.
For the decade-plus journey, Xiahou Danxin had been mostly deranged, difficult to communicate with effectively.
But to weep and laugh like this was unprecedented.
Was he... lucid now?
"Sniff—"
Xiahou Danxin wiped the bubbles from his nose with his dirty sleeve, suddenly raising his head, his eyes reddened but showing signs of clarity:
"Xiahou... One of the ten distinguished surnas of chanic God Mountain!"
"My ancestors followed the Prival Coronate - Hand of chanism; undoubtedly they were elders of chanic God Mountain, highly ritorious and celebrated in history."
"But... during the First Epoch of the New Era, due to ... my family was shad!"
"At the ti, I was one of the Xiahou Clan Leader candidates, bearing a series of scientific research tasks and family missions..."
"One task was incredibly crucial, involving the ’experint of disassembling and modifying parts of the body of the old chanisms Divine,’ because of my arrogance, I miscalculated crucial data, not only damaging very valuable equipnt but also causing the demise of hundreds of my clansfolk..."
"The Xiahou could have been devastated because of !"
"As one of the main persons responsible for the experint, I was stripped of all my rights and titles, labeled as a ’heinous criminal,’ exiled from chanic God Mountain, never to return..."
"The old chanism Divine Body? Disassembling and modification?"
Ye Hanjun scratched his ear, completely befuddled, as if it was all Greek to him.
"You can understand it as, a chanical-type Guardian Divine from our chanic God Mountain, after its fall, utilizing Its body to modify other lower chanical Spirits."
"If successful, a large number of Supre Level chanical Spirits would be born, and the very lucky ones might inherit a faint divinity, becoming a new Divine Trace Lineage..."
"Also, the research participants in the experint would gain a wealth of authority experience afterward, which would assist the growth of their authority..."
Xiahou Danxin took a deep breath, his exhalation incredibly heavy:
"Because of , thirty percent of the chanism Divine’s body was rendered ineffective!"
"This was a major loss, harming the interests of the entire populace of chanic God Mountain!"
"Of course, what hurt even more was the spiritual blow, failing in the realm I was most proud of, my dear clanspeople killed by my hand... Whenever I think of my sins, I truly wish to end myself..."
