Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1005: Heading to the Holy Mountain

"Ah!" Ye Qing looked at Qian Wanliang strangely.

Seeing the doubt on Ye Qing's face, he said, "You've only been here for three days and haven't figured anything out yet. You're already losing patience and want to leave. Actually, even if you can't figure anything out here, you can still gain something. Being too impatient is not good for your martial arts!"

"Uh!" Ye Qing looked at Qian Wanliang. If he knew that the writing recorded in this place was completely useless, he wondered what kind of expression he would have.

Ye Qing thought for a moment. Compared to other people in the Heavenly Court, Qian Wanliang was still considered a normal person. So, after pondering for a while, Ye Qing decided to remind him. He said, "Brother, the things recorded on these might not be the Seven Secrets at all. They might just be a record of some event, and they're completely useless!"

"Not so!" Qian Wanliang said, "I have been here for more than a year. Although I have not gained much useful information, I feel like I am wandering among the Great Dao. My mind is clear and transparent. It is precisely because of this that I was able to break through to the peak of the extraordinary realm!"

At this point, he said earnestly, "You're still young and impetuous. You need to learn from me in this regard!"

"Uh!" Hearing his earnest tone, Ye Qing almost laughed. He coughed and said, "Well, I won't continue my comprehension. I won't disturb you either. You two continue your comprehension!"

At this point, Ye Qing said, "Speaking of which... the most mysterious place in the Spirit Realm is the Holy Mountain, why haven't you gone there yet?"

“Mount Sheng is difficult to climb, and going there first won’t determine anything!” Qian Wanliang said, “Everything is predetermined; we just need to follow the schedule!”

"What do you mean?" Ye Qing asked curiously.

Jiang Shengyu said, "It is said that everything on the Holy Mountain is predetermined from the beginning. Who can ascend the Holy Mountain and what they can obtain on the Holy Mountain is determined from the moment of their birth."

"So when to go, when to arrive, and what to get are all arranged. We just need to follow our methods. When we feel it's time to go to the sacred mountain, that's when it's time to go naturally," Jiang Shengyu said.

"What the hell?" Ye Qing's head throbbed with pain. He felt that what Jiang Shengyu was saying was not human language!

But he couldn't be bothered to care anymore.

"Then, Brother Qian, we'll take our leave now!" Ye Qing said.

"Of course!" Qian Wanliang said, "Brother Ye, if you're interested in doing business with me in the future, you can do it. I do all kinds of business, whether it's buying and selling, leasing, providing protection, or even murder. As long as the price is right, I can do it!"

"Okay!" Ye Qing nodded and said.

Then he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Qian Wanliang, and turned to look at Jiuqing.

Jiuqing stood calmly; she had already withdrawn from her meditative state, but she hadn't spoken a word.

Seeing Ye Qing bid her farewell, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes behind the mask. Then she clasped her hands in a fist and said, "In the future, be at the same level as me. Remember to fight me!"

"Okay!" Ye Qing nodded and said.

The three of them then turned around and left without lingering.

All around were endless corpses. Even now, Ye Qing still felt somewhat unable to adapt to the situation. It looked too terrifying. Walking in this place, he always felt a chill down his spine and felt like something was watching him from behind.

After spending a whole day, they finally emerged from this place where death lurked. Once outside, feeling the fresh air around them, Ye Qing felt incredibly refreshed!

"Should we go straight to the Holy Mountain?" Jiang Shengyu asked.

"Okay!" Ye Qing nodded and said, "You go first, and we'll keep our distance and follow you! We don't know the direction of the Holy Mountain!"

Jiang Shengyu said, "The Holy Mountain is easy to find. It is the most central place in this Spirit Realm, and also the highest mountain. It's right there!"

As he spoke, Jiang Shengyu pointed to the horizon, to a towering mountain piercing the clouds. He said, "This place can be seen from anywhere on this island in the Spirit Realm!"

"So big?" Ye Qing asked with slight surprise.

“Once you reach His side, you will know how magnificent He is,” Jiang Shengyu said.

"Him?" Ye Qing looked at Jiang Shengyu with a puzzled expression!

"That's the most mysterious and sacred place in the spirit world, and even the entire universe. That's why we call it 'He'!" Jiang Shengyu said, "Follow me!"

"Okay!" Ye Qing and Lin Qianyu nodded!

The two quickly followed behind Jiang Shengyu, heading towards the direction of the mountain peak!

Time passed day by day. Although the area had shrunk considerably, there was still a large area available for movement. However, Ye Qing could also sense that the population density was indeed much higher than before.

When Ye Qing first arrived here, he didn't encounter a single person for several days.

But during this period, he encountered several people every day!

However, many people are avoiding it.

Yes, most of them hide in dense forests or caves, silently cultivating their skills.

This is the opinion of the vast majority of people.

For most people from lower civilizations, they have no interest in the rankings of this battle of geniuses; they only want to come in to cultivate and improve their own cultivation level.

This battle of geniuses is a way for the Heavenly Court to reduce the number of geniuses in the universe.

Similarly, this was also a killing spree among the geniuses of the Heavenly Court!

The vast majority of people who want to obtain the badge are from the Heavenly Court!

Ye Qing witnessed several battles during this period, but he did not participate in any of them.

The saying goes, "Looking at a mountain makes a horse run itself to death." The sacred mountain was right there, but for Ye Qing, even with them traveling at full speed, it took them three whole days to reach the vicinity of the sacred mountain!
