Xiang Ting watched Ye Chu step forward completely unharmed. Although she was puzzled, she followed him up. As Xiang Ting walked into the Purple Dragon Mountain, she instantly felt her blood become excited. She quickly suppressed it with both her intent and power, only then stabilising her own blood.
There were quite a few cultivators outside the Purple Mountain, but not many dared to step into it. The Tianyu Prince and a group of other cultivators walked in front, while Ye Chu and the other cultivators followed behind.
No one walked particularly fast. The further they went, the more excited their blood became. Everyone used various powers to suppress it, continuously climbing the Purple Mountain.
Along the way, some cultivators shouted in excitement. Some harvested precious herbs, while others dug up profound stones.
Along this path, they frequently heard cultivators shouting excitedly. Ye Chu was amazed in his heart, thinking this truly was a treasure land. They had not even gone far, yet they had already found so many precious items.
“Everyone, be careful!” Just as everyone was excited, a cultivator suddenly shouted. The few cultivators at the front retreated frantically, looking ahead with terrified expressions.
In front of them, a terrifying scene appeared. Countless fierce beasts charged down from the Purple Mountain. The beast tide consisted of thousands of creatures, leaping down the mountain like ten thousand galloping horses, possessing infinite momentum.
A deafening rumble shook the area, and everyone felt the earth beneath their feet tremble. As the ten thousand beasts charged forward, the massive trees on the Purple Mountain, which required several people to embrace, were directly trampled to pieces. The momentum of the galloping horde forced every cultivator to retreat continuously, their faces pale, wanting to flee.
However, these fierce beasts were too fast. They quickly charged into the group of cultivators. Some cultivators had not even reacted before they were directly trampled into meat paste by the beasts, leaving no bones behind, crushed completely.
Everywhere the beasts passed, everything was ruthlessly trampled and destroyed. Ye Chu and Xiang Ting also had a major change in their expressions. They moved quickly, leaping and shooting out of the Purple Mountain.
The momentum of the galloping beasts was too terrifying, and Ye Chu did not dare to confront them head-on.
The Tianyu Prince and his group did the same. Using terrifying power, they utilised the impact force of the beasts to rebound and leap out of the Purple Mountain.
The beasts continued to charge, but Ye Chu and his group had already fled out of the Purple Mountain at a fast pace. The group that had originally entered the Purple Dragon Mountain was now forced back to their starting point.
Watching the beasts charge away, kicking up rolling thick smoke, they disappeared from everyone’s sight in a short time. If it were not for the mess in front of them, everyone would have thought it was an illusion.
Everyone stared blankly at the Purple Mountain. No one had expected such a result. Quite a few cultivators had just entered, each possessing the strength of an upper-grade king, yet after the beast horde passed, fewer than ten people survived.
Even Ye Chu felt a chill in his heart. Looking at the Purple Mountain before him, he muttered to himself, “Could this be another forbidden area in the Love Domain?”
Xiang Ting was also still in shock. Thinking of the unstoppable momentum of the beast horde just now, she swallowed and said, “I have been to the Purple Mountain several times and know there are countless fierce beasts inside. But I have never seen such a beast horde charging like this.”
Ye Chu looked towards the Tianyu Prince, seeing that both he and Jin Chongyun had pale faces. They had obviously been frightened by the beast horde just now.
“Judging by the current abnormality of the Purple Mountain, it is highly likely that it has truly given birth to immortal material. Otherwise, it is impossible to have such a beast horde,” Jin Chongyun said to the Tianyu Prince. “What do you think we should do?”
“The beast horde just now was too terrifying, and we can hardly resist it.” The Tianyu Prince shook his head. “The beast horde just now could trample everything, easily crushing even upper-grade kings to pieces, and we could hardly resist it. But just as you said, this kind of abnormality represents a ninety percent chance that immortal material has appeared. Even if there is no immortal material, the Purple Mountain definitely has something sinister.”
“You are right! Since we are powerless to go up the Purple Mountain, if we confirm there is immortal material in the Purple Mountain, we can only invite our elders from home to come.” The Tianyu Prince nodded to the person beside him. That person immediately took out an object, threw it into the void, and the object burned in the void, bursting with brilliant light. Strange fluctuations penetrated into the space.
Jin Chongyun was no exception. A golden insect flew from his body into the void, bursting with golden light and spreading ripples that continuously merged into the space.
After the two of them finished, the other cultivators were also restless and used various methods to notify their sects and families.
Xiang Ting looked at the Purple Mountain before her, her expression equally excited. “The Purple Dragon Mountain is so abnormal right now, I am afraid a peerless treasure is truly about to be born. If that is the case, we must also notify our sect to come.”
Confirming the possible appearance of a peerless treasure like immortal material, Xiang Ting could not remain calm either. She took out an object, threw it fiercely into the void, where it burned, turning into streaks of patterns that merged into the void.
No one dared to go up the Purple Mountain easily anymore. Everyone sat cross-legged outside the Purple Mountain to cultivate.
Xiang Ting was the same, occasionally speaking a few words to Ye Chu. “Everyone is cultivating, so you should cultivate too. Before long, it will be lively here. Many strong individuals will come. The temptation of immortal material is enough to attract many secluded cultivators to join the fun.”
Sure enough, three days later, the void suddenly vibrated. A huge crack appeared in the sky. With the appearance of this crack, a massive black hole that made people’s hearts palpitate emerged. This black hole seemed as if it wanted to swallow everything. Just looking at it made a chill rise in one’s heart.
And it was from this terrifying black hole that a sedan chair made of pure gold appeared. The sedan chair was magnificent, carved with various patterns. As soon as it appeared between heaven and earth, everything in the world seemed to pale in comparison before it. From the sedan chair, an old man slowly walked out. The old man had white hair, but his eyes were bright and piercing. As he stepped out of the sedan chair, he seemed to merge with heaven and earth. With every step he took, heaven and earth resonated with his pace. Even though he did not release the slightest bit of imposing manner, he gave people an infinite pressure. Some cultivators could not withstand it, their faces turning pale, spitting blood from their mouths, and their bodies crawling on the ground.
Ye Chu also felt a pressure from heaven and earth. The resonance between heaven, earth, and the old man made him extremely uncomfortable. His own heartbeat was forced to synchronise with the other’s pace.
This feeling shocked Ye Chu to his core. He exchanged a glance with Xiang Ting, and both saw the horror in each other’s eyes. “A strong individual who has seized the creation of heaven and earth.”
Ye Chu and Xiang Ting only felt their heartbeats accelerating. How terrifying was a strong individual who had seized the creation of heaven and earth, possessing the power of heaven and earth with a wave of his hand. Yet such a figure had actually come because of the Purple Mountain.
However, the shock of Ye Chu and Xiang Ting was not over yet. From the other end of heaven and earth, another massive black hole appeared. This pitch-black black hole, resembling the bloody mouth of a fierce beast, slowly spat out a cultivator. The cultivator was riding a ferocious beast, and the beast exuded an astonishing brutality. This brutality made quite a few cultivators feel a chill in their hearts.
“It is a demon beast. Good heavens, he is actually using a demon beast as a mount!” Everyone was shocked in their hearts, watching the cultivator arriving on the demon beast, and every single one of them looked on with utmost respect.
