Inside a dimly lit room.
A shadowy figure sat, his brows furrowed.
A man in a white robe sat across from him, his expression equally serious, devoid of any smile. His body was surrounded by a faint glow, clearly not his true form.
He was able to travel across the world.
Apparently, he had used his divine powers and immortal techniques to traverse countless miles to meet with the shadowy figure.
“Not only has Shu Mountain produced Jiang Yuebai, who can perfectly operate the Heavenly Cycle, but also a third realm disciple has emerged.” The man in the white robe said solemnly, “Heroes are emerging, clearly their destiny is not yet exhausted.”
“Heh.” The shadowy figure sneered, “Even a centipede dies but never falls down. Shu Mountain’s size is there, every generation has a few geniuses, what’s so strange about that? As long as they don’t have divine artifacts, they are ultimately useless.”
“There is a gap between geniuses.” The man in the white robe said, paused, and then continued: “You may not understand, but it is true that a genius who can operate the Heavenly Cycle perfectly is not ordinary.”
“You…” The shadowy figure was somewhat exasperated, but unable to refute, he could only say resentfully: “I admit that your cultivation is higher than mine, otherwise, you wouldn’t have been chosen to infiltrate Shu Mountain.”
Upon hearing this, the man in the white robe’s face also darkened.
The two of them didn’t speak for a while.
After a moment, it was the shadowy figure who broke the silence: “Alright, don’t be angry.”
“Hmph.” The man in the white robe snorted coldly.
“I know what you’re worried about, you’re just worried that Shu Mountain’s destiny is prosperous, and our plan will have flaws.” The shadowy figure said, “But rest assured, our plan has never been to kill Shu Mountain in one blow. We just need to slowly erode its destiny, first cut down its pride, then drive it out of the heavens, and let it slowly perish.”
“I can’t make a move anymore.” The man in the white robe said decisively.
“Of course, we won’t let you make a move again, it’s too risky to do so on Shu Mountain.” The shadowy figure said: “You just need to keep an eye on these outstanding disciples, whoever leaves Shu Mountain, immediately report the news. I will arrange for people to intercept and kill them.”
“Since Shu Mountain likes to let disciples go out and gain experience, let them pay the price for it!” The shadowy figure waved his right hand and said ruthlessly.
“Be careful when you make a move.” The man in the white robe said.
“I’ll handle it, don’t worry.” The shadowy figure laughed: “Like that third realm disciple, I’ll find someone in the fifth or sixth realm to kill… there will be no failure.”
“I’m not talking about failure, who would fail to kill a third realm disciple?” The man in the white robe said, “What I mean is, be more careful, don’t leak any news. Since the True Dragon descended, Elder Sikong has been very idle lately, I heard he has calculated for Shu Mountain several times. If it weren’t for my magical artifact shielding the heavenly secrets, the things I did last time would have been exposed.”
“I understand.” The man in the black robe nodded: “The Shu Mountain summit is imminent, that’s the big move. Before that, I will be very careful with these small moves.”
“That’s good.” The man in the white robe said, “By the way, I heard that the Purple and Green Twin Swords also have some movement. When the time comes to make a move, it would be best to bring a divine artifact. Otherwise, I’m afraid there will be variables.”
“Big brother, that’s one of the few divine artifacts in the world, it’s not cabbage…” The shadowy figure let out a pained voice, “If we ask the Ming King Sect to move the Ksitigarbha’s true body, that’s another price!”
“Heh, I don’t care.” The man in the white robe shook his head, “That’s something you need to consider, anyway, I’ve delivered the information. How to deal with it, it’s not my responsibility.”
“You…” The shadowy figure was speechless again.
The man in the white robe waved his sleeve, and his phantom disappeared with a whoosh.
Thousands of miles away, on Shu Mountain.
A man in a white robe, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes shining brightly!
…
Black Whale Mountain.
Among the local Li people, there is a legend about the origin of this mountain.
A long, long time ago, this place was a flat land, adjacent to the East Sea. The hardworking and brave Li people lived by the sea, their skin was dark, they were cheerful and hospitable, and they made a living by fishing in the sea.
But from a certain day on, a terrifying monster, the Black Demon Whale, appeared in the sea. It swam in the sea like an island, ferocious and terrifying, often attacking fishing boats, always eating everyone on the boat.
Because of the appearance of the Black Demon Whale, the Li people could no longer find food in the sea. In that era, they were almost at a dead end.
At this time, a powerful giant ranger came to this place, his name was Fang Yi.
Hearing about the tragic experiences of the Li people, he decided to help them. But the Black Demon Whale was almost invincible in the sea, and no one could defeat it.
So Fang Yi went to the Southern Region to break off a branch of the ancient Bi Luo tree, went to the Western Region to kill the evil Flood Dragon and pulled out its tendons, and then went to the Northern Region to find the world’s number one weapon master, and made a top-notch fishing rod in the world.
Yes, he wanted to fish the Black Demon Whale ashore.
But with the fishing rod, there was still a lack of bait.
The most beautiful and good-singing woman of the Li people, Luo Sha, stood up. She volunteered to be the bait and go into the sea.
So the next day, Luo Sha slowly went out to sea in a small boat. She stood at the bow of the boat and sang loudly. Her beautiful singing indeed attracted the Black Demon Whale.
This terrifying giant beast swallowed Luo Sha in one gulp, and was immediately hooked by the fish hook wrapped around Luo Sha.
The giant Fang Yi began to pull the fishing rod with all his strength. After three days and three nights of struggle, he finally pulled the Black Demon Whale ashore. The Black Demon Whale, deprived of water, could no longer be fierce. Fang Yi controlled it, and the Li people rushed up and killed the Black Demon Whale on the shore.
Its body turned into this mountain.
To this day, a giant statue still stands at the top of Black Whale Mountain, and below the giant is a woman singing loudly.
This was cast by the Li people in memory of the giant Fang Yi and Luo Sha.
…
“This legend…”
Chu Liang pondered for a moment after hearing it.
In this world, no legend could be taken lightly, because it might very well be true. He nervously stepped on the black stone ground beneath his feet, wondering if it would suddenly come to life.
In front of him stood a towering giant statue.
Lifelike, heroic.
“Let’s not talk about legends for now…” Lin Bei, standing beside him, looked enviously at the giant head that was digging into the black rock, “Can’t you lend me this big guy for a ride later?”
“No.” Chu Liang flatly refused, “I don’t need to think to guess what you want to do with it. Are you planning to pretend to be some noble young master or the pride of Shu Mountain, to deceive innocent girls?”
“How could you think so low of me!” Lin Bei was indignant, “You’re too accurate!”
Chu Liang: “……”
“Ah.” Lin Bei shook his head and sighed, “You made a big splash at Sister Jiang’s lecture, and now all the junior sisters of Shu Mountain probably admire you. You won’t have to worry in the future. But I’m still unsettled, can you bear to see me lonely every day?”
“I can’t bear it.” Chu Liang said, “Didn’t I advise you to nip it in the bud?”
“Yikes…” Lin Bei looked resistant, “I can nip, but I won’t bud.”
“If you were doing something legitimate, I would definitely help you. But if you’re going to deceive women, how can I help you?” Chu Liang patted his shoulder, “Stop thinking about these crooked ways, let’s go find some spiritual medicine.”
Lin Bei hummed twice, shrugged helplessly, and led the way forward.
After bypassing two statues and walking a long distance, they finally arrived at a narrow path in the towering mountain wall. This place was hidden by trees and blocked by weeds, almost completely invisible. Looking up, there was a vast mountain wall, with only a thin line of sky visible.
“You even found this small path?” Chu Liang laughed, “How did you do it?”
“Don’t mention it, I was accidentally left behind and chased by a water demon. I panicked and had no choice but to hide under this cliff, almost thinking I was going to be trapped… Who knew that there was a crack here.” Lin Bei recounted.
“You said you had a thrilling battle with the water demon…” Chu Liang recalled his words.
“It did scare me to death!” Lin Bei said with a righteous face.
Well, it was a one-sided thrill.
Since he still needed his brother to find the spiritual medicine, Chu Liang didn’t probe too deeply, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
The poor giant head, however, was just the right size to get stuck in the mountain crevice, scraping all the way through. Finally, after passing through this narrow path, the view suddenly brightened, revealing a wide valley! Rows of strange flowers and plants, fragrance everywhere!
At first, it was extremely narrow, just enough for a person to pass.
After walking dozens of steps, it suddenly opened up!
Good morning.
