Chapter 102: The Difference Between Eternal Black and White, Stepping into the Change of the Sacred Mountain!
Watching that constantly falling black and white, Ye Ling's thoughts gradually immersed themselves within it, changing as they fell.
Upon that black and white flashed a strange radiance, filled with a powerful charm; that so-called charm is not something that can be explained easily in a sentence or two.
Within their respective domains, they are both the supreme powerhouses.
Even though Ye Ling is a Child of Light with a powerful existence, at this moment, he could not help but be drawn in from the bottom of his heart, greedily wanting to swallow the Dao rhyme within.
One can imagine just how terrifying this was.
And very soon, these two streaks of black and white also came crashing down, falling into the Knight Sacred Mountain in just an instant.
Dust billowed up from the tremors, and that incessant, terrifying momentum caused the entire Knight Sacred Mountain to shake, while countless Magic Beasts in the surroundings trembled from the bottom of their hearts.
It was not just them; even Ye Ling was quickly blasted out amidst that incomparably terrifying momentum.
"Is that... what I saw in my dream before?"
"That streak of black and white—the black one should be Austin Griffin, but that white one? Could it be the little beast from my dream?"
Ye Ling pondered, a trace of surprise appearing in his eyes. He was calculating, calculating what that mysterious little beast could be. But as he continued to calculate, he discovered that he actually felt a palpitation.
Because he had calculated an existence that was nearly impossible; he quickly discarded this thought.
Impossible! That is absolutely impossible!
However, looking at that white existence, Ye Ling's eyes were dazed, and a tremor even surged forth continuously; it was very strange.
"If I haven't calculated wrong, the reason I've been unable to break through to the Fifth Rank and fully condense Liquid Spiritual Power must be related to that pure white aura, right?"
Ye Ling calculated. It seemed that he really did need to take a trip to the Knight Sacred Mountain next. Setting aside the little white beast for now, he was, after all, a Fifth Rank Knight and needed to find a Magic Beast partner. "Huhu!" Just as Ye Ling was thinking, the sound of Long Lingxi's panting suddenly came from the side. Ye Ling turned his head to look and saw that Long Lingxi appeared as if she had suffered immense pressure, panting heavily. Fragrant sweat dripped from her spiritual body; the pressure was truly maxed out.
"Lingxi, are you alright?" Ye Ling stepped forward to support Long Lingxi and asked.
"They're all dead, all dead, you're all dead, Mom and Dad are gone, the Demon Race is destroyed, and I'm dead too. I have no ability to resist." Long Lingxi's voice trembled; she had clearly suffered immense stimulation.
Her eyes held a trace of fear, and she kept trembling.
It was not until Ye Ling's voice sounded that she was able to steady her thoughts, turning to reveal a trace of peace of mind, and asked: "Brother Ye Ling, did you see it just now?"
"That aura flashing with black and white, and then it descended directly into the Knight Sacred Mountain..."
"Mm, I saw it." Ye Ling nodded: "Inside it was a holy yet void aura, very ethereal, as if it were the most wonderful thing in this world."
"Holy?" Long Lingxi was puzzled: "No, what I perceived was destruction, an extreme and powerful destruction, like destruction from Heavenly Punishment! Just by taking one look, I felt that this world was about to perish and turn into nothingness."
Having said this, the little girl was somewhat afraid; she trembled and squatted down, hugging her knees with both arms, her eyes filled with fear from the bottom of her heart. Clearly, she was scared—truly scared.
Seeing Long Lingxi like this, Ye Ling could not help but squat down, letting her lean into his embrace to comfort her.
At the same time, his own heart began to ponder.
Destruction? Powerful destruction?
Destruction like Heavenly Punishment; it seems that "black" really is Austin Griffin.
Just as the two were thinking, a strange aura also came from the throne, bringing both of their consciousness and perception back.
On the Divine Seal Throne at the very center of the throne world, a ray of light flickered, transforming into a special furnace, but after a long while, it disappeared completely, turning into a butterfly that circled around the two, telling them something.
They could not understand it.
But they could understand it.
However, before they could say anything, the next moment, both of them dissipated and left this place.
This piece of the throne world turned into void once more, a pitch-black expanse, and everything was just as it had been, as if they had never come to Ye Ling's room.
Ye Ling woke up quickly, looking at his surroundings in surprise.
"Back, huh?" Ye Ling let out a long sigh of relief.
"Ye Ling, did my boss look for you just now?" the Moon Bright Vast Sea Spiritual Stove asked curiously.
"Mm, the Divine Seal Throne of Eternity and Creation just summoned me. Not just me, but Lingxi went over together as well," Ye Ling replied.
"Two Light God's Favored Ones? What is the boss trying to do?" the Moon Bright Vast Sea Spiritual Stove was puzzled.
"He's your boss, you're asking me?" Ye Ling retorted.
"Seven thousand years ago, when all Twelve Watchers were present, he was usually a riddle-maker too. How would I know what he wants to do?" Moon Bright Vast Sea said helplessly: "But what did my boss want to do by calling you two over this time?"
Ye Ling explained everything that had happened. At the same time, he also discovered that a strange mark had appeared in his mind, guiding him toward something.
Moon Bright Vast Sea was stunned.
This situation was just too inconceivable. "I'm not too sure of the specifics. The boss's authority is different from ours; he is the seat core of the Creator God. The things he sees and the authority he possesses are far greater than ours."
"But since the boss spoke and let you take action, then just follow his thoughts and actions. I don't know much about that so-called Knight Sacred Mountain, but it shouldn't be very hard to enter, right?" Moon Bright Vast Sea said.
Ye Ling nodded: "As long as they have stepped into the Third Rank, all knights under the age of twenty are qualified to go there."
"In that case, that's easy to handle. Find your teacher Long Xingyu and have him help you apply for one," Moon Bright Vast Sea said earnestly: "You really must hurry over there and take a look. To be able to make the boss have that kind of state, that thing is definitely not something simple."
"Perhaps your delay in breaking through to the Fifth Rank is related to that thing."
Hearing the words of the Moon Bright Vast Sea Spiritual Stove, Ye Ling nodded decisively and immediately got up, walking toward Long Xingyu's residence.
The residence Long Xingyu had arranged for Ye Ling was very close to the battlefield in the entire Yulong Pass, which meant it was not very far from the God Seal Knight Mansion. The whole journey did not take long before he arrived.
It was just that Long Xingyu seemed to have known Ye Ling would come long ago, standing there in advance.
Mm, the Long Lingxi beside him proved all of this. "Ye Ling, did you and Lingxi just enter an illusion together?" Long Xingyu asked with concern immediately: "According to what Lingxi said, it was an illusion created by the Divine Seal Throne of Eternity and Creation? Is that true?"
"It is." Ye Ling nodded.
"What do you plan to do next?" Long Xingyu asked. "Since things have already started, then without exception, it is naturally to go to the Knight Sacred Mountain to take a look. I also happen to be at the time to find a Magic Beast partner, so I will resolve it all at once," Ye Ling replied.
"That's fine too. You two wait here first, I will go apply for a Sacred Mountain Order." Long Xingyu nodded, and soon he flew up slowly, flying toward the interior.
"Brother Ye Ling." On the side, Long Lingxi leaned over, her big eyes blinking: "You say, will the destruction I saw at that time really descend?"
"Will we really die?"
Long Lingxi was naturally speaking of everything she saw from Austin Griffin. Hearing this, Ye Ling could not help but feel a pang of heartache. He rubbed her head and said: "As God-Favored Ones, what we are best at is creating miracles."
"If you are afraid of that scene, do not run away. Cultivate well, and when the time comes, we will change all of that together..."
"Okay." Although the fearful look on Long Lingxi's face had not dissipated, she trusted Ye Ling incomparably. Hearing these words, she nodded decisively.
Just at this moment, a strange light slowly emerged; it was Long Xingyu who had returned.
"Let's go, I have already made arrangements," Long Xingyu said slowly. "We can go now."
The two nodded and left together with Long Xingyu.
Knight Sacred Mountain and Yulong Pass were not far apart, only a few dozen miles away. For Long Xingyu, it was quite fast; in just a moment, he brought Ye Ling and Long Lingxi to the Knight Sacred Mountain and landed on a patch of light mist.
The light mist flashed with a holy aura, constantly shedding radiance.
"State your names." After they landed, an aged voice slowly sounded.
"Long Xingyu of the Knight Temple, accompanied by my disciples Ye Ling and Long Lingxi, here to select a Magic Beast partner," Long Xingyu said calmly.
Hearing this, a hunchbacked, silver-haired old man walked out from the Sacred Mountain. The old man was somewhat hunched, missing an arm, and his right eye was blind; his entire life force was like a candle flickering in the wind.
But upon seeing Long Xingyu, he was somewhat surprised: "Kid Xingyu, it really is you?"
"I didn't expect you to actually bring disciples here."
Having said that, he turned his head to look at Ye Ling and Long Lingxi, and could not help but show a trace of amazement at their appearance: "What a handsome young man and beautiful young lady. Are these two your son and daughter?"
"That's not right either, one has the surname Ye? Then is this little girl your daughter?"
"Indeed," Long Xingyu nodded.
"Not bad," the Mountain Guardian Elder smiled slightly, beckoned to the two with his hand, and said: "You two little ones, come over. Xingyu's disciple and daughter, I hope you two can bring me a little surprise."
The first one he examined was Long Lingxi. He reached out and placed his hand on her shoulder, his Spiritual Power moved slightly, and suddenly an expression of surprise flashed across his eyes.
"Twelve years old, Fourth Rank, five hundred points of Spiritual Power?"
"Kid Xingyu, your daughter's talent is much higher than yours was in the past," the Mountain Guardian Elder said in surprise.
"That is only natural," Long Xingyu laughed: "Please continue."
The Mountain Guardian Elder then placed his hand on Ye Ling's shoulder and began to examine him.
To be honest, he actually didn't think Ye Ling would be that terrifying; he estimated that his cultivation level should be on the same level as this daughter of Long Xingyu.
Looking at his age, he should be around fifteen or sixteen years old. Being able to have five hundred points of Spiritual Power could be considered a decent genius, not much worse than the Long Xingyu of the past.
But after finishing the examination, he was even more stunned. A flash of surprise crossed his eyes as he stared fixedly at the Ye Ling in front of him, his expression agitated: "Fifteen, fifteen years old."
"Two thousand points of Spiritual Power? Fourth, Fourth Rank peak!"
"Are you kidding me?!"
Don't look at the fact that there is only a difference of fifteen hundred points of Spiritual Power and three years of age between Ye Ling and Long Lingxi, but one must never underestimate these three years.
Professionals of the Six Great Temples are all in the stage of laying a foundation before the age of twenty, and they experience a surge before twenty. Now that Ye Ling is only fifteen and can reach this level, that is truly not something that can be called simple.
Moreover, based on what the Mountain Guardian Elder's cultivation could perceive, the quality of Ye Ling's Spiritual Power was surprisingly high, even higher than most Fifth Rank existences who had condensed Liquid Spiritual Power, even Fifth Rank peak, or even those a step further! The compression and quality of Spiritual Power are harder to achieve than simple Spiritual Power advancement. In other words, if this child were simply cultivating Internal Spiritual Power... maintaining a normal quality of Spiritual Power, then his Spiritual Power cultivation would likely reach a truly terrifying level. "Senior, how is this disciple of mine?" Long Xingyu stepped forward slightly and said with a smile.
"You kid really hit the jackpot. Let them go in; next, I want to watch them shine!" the old man commented, though his gaze did not leave Long Lingxi and Ye Ling, as these two truly represented the hope of the Temple.
The Mountain Guardian Elder reintroduced all the rules of the Knight Sacred Mountain.
Long Lingxi and Ye Ling walked straight into that patch of light mist, feeling their own Light Element constantly being activated. In just a moment, layers of strange Spiritual Power surrounded them, which was very surging.
It was very comfortable.
This strange feeling made the Spiritual Power within Ye Ling's body boil constantly.
Generally speaking, after stepping into the Fifth Rank, if it is not converted into Liquid Spiritual Power in time, the meridians in the body will not continue to absorb external Spiritual Power, and it is difficult to successfully break through one's remaining Spiritual Power.
But after entering the Sacred Mountain, the Spiritual Power within Ye Ling's body changed, and it also constantly entered Ye Ling's meridians through Yating.
It actually had the possibility of starting to improve.
"Is this the Knight Sacred Mountain?"
"Such a terrifying gathering place for the Light Element is rarely seen even in the peak of the Glorious Grade era, let alone now in the Temple Alliance where the Ninth Rank level four or five is the peak," Yue Ming Canghai commented.
"This is the Knight Temple, and even the most terrifying place in the Temple Alliance. If it weren't a bit glorious, how would the Holy Alliance have the qualifications to resist the Demon Race?" Ye Ling explained lightly.
"That is true," Yue Ming Canghai nodded, then looked toward the vicinity.
This layer of light mist did not exist for long. The next moment, it revealed the truth: in front of them were green mountains, the air was very fresh, and looking up at the sky, it was a very clear blue sky.
It was very bright.
The strange Spiritual Power around them was constantly dancing, and the heavy Light Spiritual Power was constantly guiding something.
At the same time, Ye Ling only felt a mark within his body being triggered, leading his consciousness to fly toward a certain location.
This made him confirm one thing.
"It seems that the so-called 'White' is right here in the Knight Sacred Mountain!!"
