Chapter 871

The logic was sound, but seeing the last immortal mountain being different and yet unable to step into it, the discomfort was real.

For Zinu, it was like watching a story, and just as she was about to see the ending, there was nothing left. Many mysteries could not be answered, and her appetite had been whetted but could not be satisfied, which was truly uncomfortable.

For Duanmu Rong, it was because the previous few immortal mountains had been lost for a long time, and the last immortal mountain looked different, perhaps containing strange flowers and exotic fruits, yet she could not step into it to study these things, which also made her regretful.

The rest of the Yin-Yang School and the Mohist people, seeing the immortal mountain in front of them but unable to set foot on it, were incredibly uncomfortable.

If they hadn't followed Su Xuan to sea this time, it would be one thing, but they had followed Su Xuan to sea, witnessed so many immortal mountains, and understood so many ancient secrets, yet they couldn't take the final step.

It was certain that this would be a matter of lifelong regret.

Perhaps when they grew old and were about to die, they would still view this matter as a regret.

But reality was just that cruel.

According to what Yanfei said, since it was an immortal mountain, it was not something anyone could step into at will; only those with affinity could step into it, and they were clearly people without affinity.

The Mirage was anchored on the sea, and the Mohist people had no mood to repair the damaged Mirage for the time being.

Witnessing Su Xuan taking Xiao Yu through the barrier and heading toward the Penglai immortal mountain, everyone's mood was incomparably uncomfortable.

A repressive atmosphere shrouded the Mirage.

On the other side, Su Xuan did not think so much.

He took Xiao Yu and walked slowly toward the direction of the Penglai immortal mountain.

Below was the sea, but Su Xuan walked through the air, and invisible power formed a road under his and Xiao Yu's feet, supporting their bodies.

This feeling was also quite novel for Xiao Yu.

She held Su Xuan's palm tightly, experiencing the feeling of walking in the sky with the sea beneath her feet, while heading toward the Penglai immortal mountain ahead.

After passing through the barrier, the appearance of the Penglai immortal mountain that came into their eyes also changed.

Outside the barrier, when they looked at the Penglai immortal mountain, this immortal mountain released dazzling golden light, like a sun, making it impossible for people to see the reality of the immortal mountain. But after passing through the barrier, Xiao Yu discovered that there was no golden light on the immortal mountain.

Although there was no golden light, the appearance of this immortal mountain was still completely different from the few immortal mountains seen earlier.

The vegetation upon it was lush and green, and looking from afar, there seemed to be clear springs flying across. Although she did not see traces of birds or beasts, there was... vitality on this immortal mountain!

Not all the vitality of the immortal mountains had been severed.

Su Xuan also looked at the Penglai immortal mountain with flickering eyes.

He was not omniscient and omnipotent, knowing everything.

After discovering the true appearance of Liupo Mountain and Yingzhou, he had prepared for this trip to have no harvest. Even if there was no harvest, at least he had to explore all the immortal mountains.

Finding the treasure vault left by ancient powerhouses on Fangzhang Mountain and finding their weapons was an unexpected surprise.

It meant that this trip, no matter what, had harvested some things.

Thus, after putting all these things away, Su Xuan and the others came to the last immortal mountain, Penglai.

One must have a beginning and an end to things.

No matter what, one had to figure out the appearance of the Penglai immortal mountain.

At the same time, Su Xuan had long had some guesses about this last Penglai immortal mountain.

This guess stemmed from that trip to Loulan and the words Xiao Li said to him before she disappeared.

According to what Xiao Li said, after Yinglong killed Did Chi You in the past, he had divided and sealed Did Chi You.

A part was sealed in the Abyss, and the remaining part was sealed overseas.

Without a doubt, this so-called overseas was the overseas immortal mountains.

In the previous few immortal mountains, Su Xuan had not seen Did Chi You's seal, so the greatest possibility was that Did Chi You's remaining half-body was sealed in the Penglai immortal mountain.

Then, after so many years, was Did Chi You still alive?

Su Xuan guessed that there was a very high possibility that he was alive.

Not only because Did Chi You's half-body in the Abyss had survived for two thousand years, but later it even possessed Donghuang Taiyi and returned to the world.

It was also because earlier on Yingzhou, Su Xuan had encountered the fierce spirit formed by Xiang Liu's resentment.

Xiang Liu was dead but not stiff, and its resentment could still turn into a fierce spirit wandering on Yingzhou.

Did Chi You was much stronger than Xiang Liu; from the part of the remnant soul that was resurrected in Loulan, one could glimpse his strength while alive. As expected, his half-body sealed in Penglai probably hadn't completely annihilated either.

It was also thinking of this that Su Xuan made a temporary decision to bring Xiao Yu along.

Xiao Yu had a special constitution and was the contemporary successor of the Goddess's Tears on Shushan.

And the facts proved that Xiao Yu, who inherited the Goddess's Tears, and he, who mastered the power of the Heavenly Book, could both pass through the barrier and step into the Penglai immortal mountain. ===== CHAPTER 873 =====
