1613 A Draught Demon, Please Do Not Attack, Barren Mountains And Sea
The appearance of the Book of Earth attracted much attention.
Deep inside a certain mountain ridge, a yellow barrier formed with endless mystical runes surrounding it. It looked stunning.
The barrier contained the Book of Earth.
“The appearance of the Book of Earth formed a Mountainous World around itself. In order to get the book, one must go in and search for the book’s core.”
“Hmph. The Mountainous World is a mysterious place with countless Opportunities of Fortune. It’s probably as dangerous as the Chaos Fragment.”
A crowd had gathered outside the Mountainous World and were doing their final preparations to enter.
It was then that black and white Immortal Sparks swirled in the void, forming mystical runes around the area.
A powerful and suffocating pressure came in from afar and crashed down on everyone in an instant.
Then, the endless black and white Immortal Sparks gathered onto one person.
It was a young man with black and white Daoist robes. He had a slender figure and a handsome look, but for some reason, his nice looks struck fear in people’s hearts.
The crowd knew they were being overpowered by the person’s aura.
“Who is this? What is this strange feeling?”
“I know him. He calls himself Calamity Yin Yang, a Prodigy who has made his presence known to the world recently. Many Prodigies died because of his ruthless method. He’s a scary one. People even call him the Prodigy Killer. Stay away from him.”
“I’ve seen him fight before. His energy presence is really strange, and it’s terrifying.”
Some of the Prodigies gulped in fear when they saw Calamity Yin Yang. It was as if they were looking at their bane.
Calamity Yin Yang was not interested in the common sky-prides and Prodigies.
He looked at the Mountainous World that the Book of Earth manifested around it with a smile. “The Supreme Treasure manifested a world around itself? It’s indeed outstanding. If I can get it, it will be of great help to me, and it will increase my chance against that monster.”
The monster he was referring to was Chu Kuagnren.
He had been laying low the past few days because he sensed Chu Kuangren’s return to the Immortal World.
Although he did not know how Chu Kuangren returned from the Blood Ocean, he had to be careful.
He had to improve himself as soon as possible to gain a chance to rival Chu Kuangren.
“The Book of Earth will be a great help,” Calamity Yin Yang muttered.
His figure flashed, and he flew toward the Mountainous World.
After he entered, the other sky-prides and Prodigies followed.
There was Fa Hai with his golden Zen scepter and violet golden bowl, looking more and more like Buddha reincarnated, especially with the Buddhist Light manifesting around him.
There was Gou Chen Imperial Commander, who had the might of a myriad of soldiers and riders behind him. He was a one-man army!
There was also the Eastern Sovereign Divine Daoist, carrying his swirling Grand Emperor qi.
Each and every one of them was a top-notch or Matchless Prodigy. They were already so far ahead that common sky-prides and Prodigies could never catch up to them.
Bang!
Heaven and earth exploded with a terrifying energy presence.
A scorching energy spread across the air and blanketed several million kilometers in range. In the blink of an eye, the scorching heat burned and dried up the land.
Trees withered, rivers dried up, and many sky-prides and Prodigies felt like their blood and fluids were boiling. The heat was terrifying.
“Look, there!”
Someone pointed further away.
Looking toward the origin of the heat, they saw a voluptuous woman with beautiful facial features and aquamarine long hair.
The woman also had slender legs and fair skin that complemented her brilliant demeanor.
However, the scorching temperature that she emanated shocked everyone who laid eyes on her.
“The scorching energy presence even contains an indescribable Yin qi. She’s… Jiangshi Hanba!”
Those who guessed her identity were in awe.
In ancient legends, the world had something that was beyond the six Dao, something that could not be killed and destroyed, and it was named Jiangshi1.
The four oldest Jiangshi were Hanba, Jiangchen, Houqing, and Yinggou.
The later Jiangshi were all from one of the four bloodlines.
The woman emanated scorching heat in her presence, similar to Hanba’s traits of scorching the earth wherever it went. It was almost certain that she came from Hanba’s bloodline.
“A Prodigy from the Jiangshi Restricted Area is here.”
“Oh my, her energy presence is terrifying. She’s definitely a Matchless Prodigy.”
The crowd felt like their bodies were disintegrating under the scorching heat as the woman approached.
The woman ignored all the curious gazes on her and went straight into the Mountainous World.
Even after she left, the temperature in the area remained high for quite a while.
“The fight for the Book of Earth will be a fierce one.”
“Yeah. But will that person be here?”
Someone mentioned that person.
His question intrigued the others, and they knew who he was referring to.
They also knew that if that person came, there was a high chance that he would probably get the Book of Earth.
“Hey, are you guys talking about him?” one of the sky-prides said in a trembling voice.
The others looked in the direction that he was pointing to and saw a man and a woman coming closer.
The leading man wore snowy white robes, but the energy presence he emanated was not that strong. In fact, it could be considered plain and dull.
He paled in comparison to those Prodigies who made their grand entrance.
However, everyone else knew that the person needed not make an entrance for himself. As long as he appeared, he would naturally be the center of attention.
Many of the sky-prides and Prodigies gasped in fear at his arrival.
“He’s here!”
It was none other than Chu Kuangren.
He arrived before the Book of Earth’s Mountainous World. He glanced at the others and smiled. “Everyone, I’m taking the Book of Earth. If you see it, please leave it. Let’s do this the peaceful way.”
The others wondered whether they should call him arrogant or overconfident when they heard him.
However, they knew that he had the confidence and the strength to speak in such a manner.
“Yes, yes. Brother Chu is right. We’re searching for our own Opportunities of Fortune in the Mountainous World, but Brother Chu can have the Book of Earth.”
“Yeah. I can’t think of anyone being worthy of the Book of Earth other than you, Brother Chu.”
“Brother Chu, don’t worry. We won’t compete with you over the Book of Earth.
It was not a joking matter because they would be courting death if they were to compete with Chu Kuangren for the Book of Earth.
Chu Kuangren then led Lan Yu into the Mountainous World.
After going into the yellow barrier, what he saw was a spacious world.
There were lush mountains and refreshing rivers, and they looked vividly real.
There were peaks that pierced the clouds, mist that surrounded mountain ridges, and Immortal Sparks glimmering in the air. There were even many Immortal trees with mystical fruits on them, which was a sight to behold.
The vast sea further away had many islands as well as though they were stars in the Milky Way.
However, the mountainous land was not in a peaceful state.
Many mystical beasts roamed across the land with growls and grunts, blood splattering everywhere, and sounds of tearing flesh.
The land before his eyes was a vast and dangerous place, covered with mountains and sea.
