Chapter 1856: Going to Mountain Ruins Together
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
The Name of Immortal Being in Clouds sounded otherworldly. However, the old man Jiang was like a salesman who knocked at your door. He kept talking like the surging Yangtze River.
Zhang Tie didn’t know whether this person was a chatterbox or had been lonely for too long. Given the personality of the role of Cui Li, even though he was simple, honest and reticent, he still felt intolerant after hearing the old man talking about his glorious image in Iron Cloud Medium-sized Domain for half an hour.
“What the hell do you want to say?” Zhang Tie glared at that old man impatiently who was 1,000 m away as he reproached, “I’m going to the Mountain Ruins. If you want to talk about your stories, you’d better talk about it in teahouses in the downtown. Stop being so garrulous. I prefer to fight you here rather than listening to your chatters.”
“Hehhehheh, Li, I was afraid that you didn’t believe in me. Therefore, I just made it clear!” Immortal Being in Clouds said with a hollow laugh as he stopped chattering.
Zhang Tie ignored him as he continued to fly upward.
Half an hour later, when Immortal Being in Clouds found that Zhang Tie was not angry at him anymore, he rolled his eyes for two circles before opening his mouth again.
“Li, is it your first time to go to Mountain Ruins?”
“Yes, so what?” Zhang Tie took a look at Immortal Being in Clouds as he replied.
After hearing Zhang Tie’s words, Immortal Being in Clouds’ eyes shone at once. Closely after that, he asked Zhang Tie carefully, “Li, are you going there for friends?”
“Haha, I’ve been used to be alone. I don’t have any friend in Mountain Ruins!”
After finding that Zhang Tie didn’t refuse to answer his questions about Mountain Ruins, Immortal Being in Clouds became instantly spirited as if he had found the breakthrough to start a talk with Zhang Tie.
“But, Li, it’s very dangerous to go to Mountain Ruins alone...” Immortal Being in Clouds warned Zhang Tie sincerely.
“Not dangerous at all. It’s just some demons!”
“Mountain Ruins is dangerous for every person. Even immortal emperors or demon emperors might lose their lives in Mountain Ruins, not to mention wind immortal generals like us!” Immortal Being in Clouds turned solemn at a stroke as he added, “In the domains under Mountain Ruins, wind immortal generals are glorious powers and could be unrivaled in one region; however, we’re the bottom class in Mountain Ruins. Above us are fire immortal generals, supreme immortal generals even immortal emperors and demon emperors. Even many human immortals are scheming against each other, not to mention demon immortal generals who want to chop us into pieces at the sight of us. Many human immortals like you were framed by the other human immortal generals. As a result, with great remorse, they were not killed by demons, but humans. If some become dark, they will be eviler than demons...”
“Your words sound a bit reasonable...” Zhang Tie relieved his composure as the last words of Immortal Being in Clouds resonated around his ears. Over these years, after experiencing so many hardships and life-or-death situations, Zhang Tie could understand Immortal Being in Clouds’ words very well.
“Li, when I entered Mountain Ruins for the first time like you, I was almost framed by a human immortal general. I still have a lingering fear even now...” Immortal Being in Clouds said with a fear.
“Thanks for you warning. I will take care of myself!” Zhang Tie said in a gruff voice, “You know Mountain Ruins so well. Have you gone there before?”
“To be honest, I’ve accessed to Mountain Ruins for dozens of times since I promoted to a wind immortal general. Except the center of Mountain Ruins, I’m sure that I know it better than most of people...” Immortal Being in Clouds said with a pleasant look.
Scratching his head, Zhang Tie suddenly recalled a question, “I’ve got a question, why I can’t buy the map of Mountain Ruins across Motian Realm?”
Zhang Tie didn’t know too much about Mountain Ruins.
There were mainly two reasons.
Firstly, Zhang Tie had just come to Motian Realm for a few years. It was almost impossible for him to understand this world. Additionally, ordinary people even average immortal generals couldn’t get the information of Mountain Ruins. Therefore, there were very few channels to known Mountain Ruins.
Secondly, after becoming dragon emperor, Zhang Tie spent most of his time in secluded cultivation. Even though he was free occasionally, he still had a lot of worries about exposing his real identity by learning about that. If others knew that the disciple of grand dragon emperor didn’t know the situation of Mountain Ruins and had to ask others about that, it would be ridiculous.
Therefore, over these years, Zhang Tie only had little information about Mountain Ruins. Comparably, even average wind immortal generals knew more about Motian Realm than him.
“Hahaha...” Immortal Being in Clouds burst out laughing after hearing Zhang Tie’s question.
“Why do you laugh?”
“How could the map of Mountain Ruins be sold? Given your question, you must have not come to Mountain Ruins before!”
“Why not?”
“If you have a treasure map, will you sell it?”
“Of course not!”
“Yup. Although Mountain Ruins is very dangerous, it’s also a huge treasury. There’re numerous immortal outfits and rarities inside Mountain Ruins. Most of them are in secret realms and immortals’ relics. An immortal general might not travel across Mountain Ruins even in his whole life, not to mention figure out all the secret realms and immortals’ relics. As for most of the people, if they could discover a secret realm or immortal’s relics in their whole lives, it was already incredible. Additionally, those secret realms and relics couldn’t be taken away. Many rarities in secret realms and relics could be used repetitively such as immortal springs and immortal palaces. Besides using these rarities themselves, they could also provide them to their sons and grandsons. Besides some influential immortal palaces, nobody dares expose the locations of secret realms or immortal relics to the public after discovering them; nor do they want anyone else to know about them. Do you think they would mark the locations of those secret realms and immortal’s relics on the map?”
“No, I don’t!” Zhang Tie shook his head resolutely after thinking about it for a short while.
“What’s more, everything in the Mountain Ruins is changing all the time. Like sand dunes in deserts, the items and sceneries in some places or spaces might be utterly different in a few years. Even though someone knows the complete terrain of Mountain Ruins and would like to draw a map of Mountain Ruins, when the map is completed, it would be out-of-date and wrong basically. If you take a still map to explore Mountain Ruins, you might die a very miserable way!”
“Isn’t there only Nine Heavens Immortal Spring inside Mountain Ruins? You mean there’re other immortal springs inside it?”
“Hehheh, Nine Heavens Immortal Spring is in the core area of Mountain Ruins. It’s said that a supreme immortal general might promote to an immortal emperor after drinking a mouth of Nine Heavens Immortal Spring. Of course, Nine Heavens Immortal Spring is the most precious one inside Mountain Ruins. However, according to my knowledge, besides Nine Heavens Immortal Spring, there’re many more immortal springs with different functions inside Mountain Ruins. Some of them could increase one’s strength; some could increase one’s defensive power; some could increase one’s spiritual energy; some could help people break through the bottleneck facing their cultivation or realize the universal laws. It’s said that some immortal springs could help old men renew their youth, enlive a dead person or grow muscles on their white bones. I once saw an immortal spring. It’s said that people could live 100 years longer only by having a sip of it...”
“Is that real?” Zhang Tie’s eyes sparkled as he couldn’t stand licking his lip. Zhang Tie had long heard that there were numerous rarities and treasures inside Mountain Ruins. Unexpectedly, there were so many marvelous immortal springs inside there. ‘If there’s really an immortal spring where I could increase my strength by two times only by taking a bath inside it or drinking of it, won’t I become grossly powerful?’
“I didn’t cheat you. As long as you enter Mountain Ruins, you will know this information only by asking around casually. However, these immortal springs are all in secret realms or immortals’ relics, at least half of which are in the hands of demons. It’s almost impossible for humans to enjoy them. Some immortal springs are in the hands of some major human immortal palaces. Even though someone knows them, they would never expose it to the public. It’s as difficult as going to the heavens for ordinary immortal generals to enjoy them. I prefer to take a look around for free in Mountain Ruins. Maybe we could have other discoveries...”
As they chatted with each other, they gradually flew towards Mountain Ruins shoulder to shoulder...
As for Zhang Tie who was a freshman in Motian Realm, with Immortal Being in Clouds on his side, he could really know a lot of information. At least, he could know something about Mountain Ruins. Therefore, he didn’t refuse to go there together with Immortal Being in Clouds any more.
Of course, Zhang Tie knew that Immortal Being in Clouds was not finding pleasure in helping him, especially on the way. He had already realized that Immortal Being in Clouds might approach him for some other purpose.
Even so, as Zhang Tie had met numerous people, he was sure that this old man was neither a demon nor a member of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace. Even though he was a bit selfish, he was definitely not an evil person.
Now that Immortal Being in Clouds didn’t mention about his purpose for the time being, Zhang Tie didn’t ask him. No matter what, Zhang Tie had the initiative; therefore, he was not afraid that this old man could do harm to him. Whatever, just chat with him to relieve boredom...
