Refining the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 1517

Chapter 1249: The Seal Opens

The Lost Garden was indeed within the fog in front of them. When the first fluctuation spread out from deep inside the fog, it swelled out like a rising tide, instantly attracting everyone’s gaze.

Qin Yu’s eyes flashed with light. He realized why he hadn’t found elder senior-apprentice brother and the others before; it was because they had gone in already.

Of course, the ones that stepped into the fog first weren’t just elder senior-apprentice brother and the others. There were more than ten others, one of which Qin Yu recognized. It was the Western Mountain’s Nine Heads, who was blocked by elder senior-apprentice brother during the East Sea longevity feast.

Sure enough, the Scholartree Saint’s disciples had caught up. Luckily he was prepared earlier, otherwise if he was discovered by Nine Heads, that would mean a fierce battle.

Third senior-apprentice brother White Phoenix had a calm expression. He stood behind elder senior-apprentice brother, and behind him was Lei Xiaoyu…mm? Qin Yu glanced at her again. This girl gave off a strange feeling.

At this moment, Lei Xiaoyu furrowed her eyebrows as if she felt something. Qin Yu quickly lowered his head and averted his eyes. This girl, her senses were actually so sharp. It seemed he had underestimated her strength before.

Not much time had passed since they separated before. Yet, Lei Xiaoyu had experienced such an astonishing increase in strength. This made Qin Yu even more confident in the Spring Master’s ability to teach his students.

At the same time, his expectations for the Lost Garden rose. Since the Spring Master went to such great pains to help him sneak in alone, there had to be lucky chances inside that wouldn’t disappoint him.

“Humph! It’s people from the Peach Garden!” Flatrock sneered, his voice low.

Qin Yu looked at him. The man’s expression and words were enough to judge that the Dragon Mountain Holy Land’s relationship with the Peach Garden wasn’t that good.

Tsk tsk, the Spring Master truly was skilled. Even in such a situation he was able to borrow the hand of the Dragon Mountain Holy Land to help him enter the Lost Garden smoothly.

Mm, this should be out of safety considerations. No one should have thought that a disciple of the Peach Garden would be hidden amongst the cultivators of the Dragon Mountain Holy Land.

Dragon Peak suddenly said, “Senior-apprentice brother, how did those Peach Garden people step into the fog first?”

Flatrock’s face stiffened. Just how stupid was this question? The reason they were able to enter first was naturally because they were strong.

If you are strong then you can too!

But the problem was that he had just coldly sneered and expressed his hostility towards the Peach Garden, so it was difficult for him to explain the situation.

Tan Hai chuckled and resolved his dilemma for him. “It is said that the Lost Garden’s seal will begin to unseal itself once every 10,000 years. You need the bloodline of the descendants of the ancient life forms that stood at the peak in order to complete the opening. Those that were already able to enter likely have a top level ancient life form descendant under their control.”

Without saying there was a disparity in strength, he gave an explanation from this aspect. Although everyone knew that it was impossible to control the descendent of a peak ancient life form without sufficient strength, this way of explaining at least preserved some face.

Flatrock gave a look of thanks and then lightly coughed, “Fellow daoist Tan Hai is correct. Of course, they aren’t without gains. When opening the seal, they can gain an extra piece of strength from the Lost Garden.

“Since those people already came out, it proves that the seal has opened as the entrance will soon appear. Everyone, be careful.”

Qin Yu realized why elder senior-apprentice brother and the others came a few days in advance. It was to open the seal and enjoy some benefits in the meantime.

But Qin Yu was a little confused. White Phoenix and Azure Dragon were undoubtedly two of the most peak existences from the descendants of the ancient life form bloodlines, but how come only elder senior-apprentice brother and Lei Xiaoyu came from the Peach Garden?

The Dragon Mountain Holy Land only had a mountain boring beast that didn’t seem too brave or reliable, and yet they were able to bring a full five people. In contrast, the Peach Garden should have been able to bring at least several dozen people.

He turned his gaze onto Nine Heads. The people next to him were clearly cultivators from the Western Mountain Holy Land, and yet there were only two of them.

There was an alien-like beast with a body as smooth as black jade beneath the three of them. It was ferocious and majestic in appearance, clearly not of a low rank.

He didn’t recognize the other people, but if they could enter the fog first then they could stand on even ground with the Western Mountain and Peach Garden. Taking a closer look, most of them came in twos and threes.

They could obviously bring more people, yet they didn’t. Was it because the benefits of the Lost Garden weren’t great enough? But after thinking about it, he discarded this thought.

The truth was simple. If there weren’t enough benefits, would so many Holy Lands come here? Would the Peach Garden’s elder senior-apprentice brother leave the seclusion training he loved so much to bring everyone here and deter the scene?

That left only one possibility.

The advantages were great enough, but the risks were equally dangerous. So, as if by prior agreement, everyone cut down their numbers to avoid unnecessary potential for damage.

If this was true, then the Lost Garden was likely far more dangerous than he imagined!

Lei Xiaoyu…this girl had specifically come to him and warned him not to run around. It was probably because she was worried that Qin Yu would hear of the Lost Garden and think about coming.

However, shouldn’t you be concerned about yourself first? Although I might have underestimated your strength before, if you follow elder senior-apprentice brother here, aren’t you afraid of losing your life?

Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows. This was certainly arranged by the Spring Master. He couldn’t figure out the logic behind it.

Even if second senior-apprentice brother was punished to clean up the wine cellar, there were still other people. For instance, seventh senior-apprentice sister who traded her face every day. Her strength was absolutely heaven-breaking…mm? Seventh senior-apprentice sister?

Qin Yu’s heartbeat quickened and he carefully glanced over Lei Xiaoyu once more. He thought back to the strange feeling from before, as well as this girl’s unexpectedly sharp senses.

It wouldn’t be, right? If she really entered like this, then master must have some kind of idea.

He wants to trick the Western Mountain’s Nine Heads?

This was a likely possibility. In his mind, the Spring Master was not a person who would accept a loss willingly.

During the East Sea trip, the Scholartree Saint dared to move against Peachy. Although he failed in the end, Peachy still suffered problems. The Spring Master definitely wouldn’t hold this in and do nothing.

With this in mind, Qin Yu suddenly became a little excited. Right now, the Western Mountain was also his enemy. It might be a bit too much to hope to do anything to the Scholartree Saint, but if he could eliminate Nine Heads ahead of time…that would be wonderful too.

Maybe he could provide some help!

He took a deep breath and calmed himself. He would look at the situation again after he entered the Lost Garden. Although eliminating Nine Heads was important, what was even more important was to obtain the lucky chance that the ancient life forms left behind for their descendants – the source of life!

According to the jade slip’s information, this thing was a super powerful tonic soup. Just by soaking in it, one could not only strengthen their body but also improve their soul cultivation. It was simply a miracle medicine tailor-made for Qin Yu, one that could forge his body into a better vessel.

While everything seemed fine now and there weren’t any accidents, no one knew what surprises tomorrow would bring.

Qin Yu didn’t hope to blow up like a massive bomb one day in the future.

True God’s Path…he hadn’t seen the advantages, yet the hidden dangers had piled up into a mountain!

Flatrock roared in excitement, “It’s opened!”

Qin Yu’s thoughts were immediately interrupted. He stared at the fog. An extremely formidable strength was released from within, forming shockwaves that swept out.

But following that, a formidable swallowing strength also came. The fog that tumbled out was fiercely dragged back in.

So the clouds and fog suddenly vanished without a trace. In the blink of an eye, only a large pitch black hole remained in front of everyone.

It was indeed large and black.

This opening was at least a thousand feet wide and was incomparably dark inside. Just looking at it made one feel as if they would be dragged in.

A wild and manic aura, mixed with the breath of endless years, was released. It was like an apex peak ancient life form had opened its eyes, its gaze spanning through space and time to look at everyone.

Qin Yu’s chest tightened. Then, his heart vigorously beat in his chest and a roar sounded out in the depths of his mind. The Abyssal Titan bloodline had unexpectedly revealed signs of erupting.

He took a deep breath and suppressed his racing heart. Qin Yu had to spend a great deal of energy to avoid turning into an abyssal titan. He sighed with relief and then turned to look at Cang Zhu. This woman had a sneer on her lips, and it seemed as if four large words were painted on her face – I’ve finally caught you!

Qin Yu’s first thought was that a woman’s senses were sharp. Then, his second thought was – was there still time to silence her by killing her?

Luckily, after sneering, Cang Zhu withdrew her gaze and didn’t do anything else.

Qin Yu hesitated. He chose to put those thoughts to the side for the time being.

These two people weren’t from the Dragon Mountain Holy Land. Since they were all outsiders, it would be best if everyone minded their own business. River water shouldn’t interfere with well water.

Of course, what was even more important was that in his senses, Tan Hai and Cang Zhu didn’t feel as if they were easy to deal with.

Murder was never an easy thing. One had to have sharp and bright eyes, otherwise if they chose the wrong target, they would be the one delivering their head instead.

The Peach Garden, Western Mountain, and others who took the lead in opening the seal comprised the first group of over cultivators who entered the black hole first and vanished.

Then, it came time for the others.

Flatrock said, “Everyone, you must be careful and stick close to the mountain boring beast. Make sure to seal your aura.” He looked at Qin Yu and said, “In particular you, junior-apprentice brother Qin. The following process might feel uncomfortable. Hold on, otherwise there will be problems.”

Qin Yu thanked him with a look of gratitude. Flatrock smiled and waved his hand, as if trying to say that he was a warm-hearted person to begin with and he didn’t need any thanks. He glanced to the side and was disappointed to find that Miss Cang Zhu wasn’t looking his way.

Mm, it had to be because the Lost Garden was opening. There was no need to worry. There would be plenty of chances in the future.

But like this, in order to show his noble and pure personality and charm, he couldn’t rush trying to kill Qin Yu. After all, he needed a prop in order to show himself off.

The order of entry could roughly determine one’s status. Once almost half the people had entered, Flatrock waved his hand and said, “Let’s go!”

The mountain boring beast’s eyes had flushed red. Its bloodline had become restless and its heart raced. It opened its mouth and roared out loud. When the five people landed on it, it kicked its four stout feet and rushed forward.

The process was smooth, except for Tan Hai and Cang Zhu suddenly tensing up. This couldn’t be concealed from the others. Dragon Peak immediately said, “Miss Cang Zhu, there is no need to be afraid. There won’t be a problem as long as you stay close to the mountain boring beast.”

He spoke like a veteran, but in truth this was his first time entering the Lost Garden.

Flatrock sneered inwardly. The more the man spoke, the more he humiliated himself. He never saw this young playboy Dragon Peak as his match to begin with.
