Chapter 105 - 103: 5000-Year Supreme Treasure, Crossing the Celestial Tribulation

Wang Xiao was quite curious about this Quanxing Sect Leader.

This Quanxing Sect Leader was as elusive as a divine dragon, showing his head but never his tail.

Over the past six years, he had asked Yan Chiyang about the Quanxing Sect Leader multiple times.

Unfortunately, Yan Chiyang had always been tight-lipped on the subject, refusing to reveal a single word.

Wang Xiao never expected it.

He never expected the Quanxing Sect Leader to seek him out at a time like this.

’Could it be? Has my performance over the past six years finally earned the Sect Leader’s trust?!’

After all, in these six years, he had killed many City Gods, plundered their Incense on multiple occasions, and even fought the Haotian Guard a few times.

There was no way he could be a spy sent by the Great Hao Divine Dynasty.

"Come with me. Don’t keep the Sect Leader waiting."

Yan Chiyang clearly held the Sect Leader in high regard. Even the mere mention of his name brought a look of reverence to his face.

"Alright."

Wang Xiao shot into the sky, following Yan Chiyang. His figure transformed into a streak of light, disappearing over the horizon in the blink of an eye.

He had now reached Limit Breaking Three Times, a Realm equivalent to Upper Rank Lifebound in this world.

However, in a real fight, a Zhenren who had undergone one or two Celestial Tribulations would probably be no match for him.

Even without external aids like a Flying Ship, he could now move like the wind!

His speed already exceeded ten times the speed of sound!

「An hour later.」

Wang Xiao and Yan Chiyang landed in an extremely remote, ancient forest deep in the mountains.

The occasional caw of a crow echoed from within, lending the forest a sinister air.

The moment Wang Xiao stepped into the ancient forest, his heart skipped a beat, as if he were being watched.

He glanced at Yan Chiyang and, seeing that the latter showed no reaction, forced himself to calm down.

’I’ve devoured over a dozen City Gods in the past six years, and my Spiritual Cultivation is comparable to a Cultivator who has passed three Celestial Tribulations. For this place to still exert such pressure on me... it seems the Quanxing Sect Leader is indeed a Dao Realm expert, without a doubt,’ Wang Xiao mused.

He followed Yan Chiyang, walking straight ahead.

He found the place to be rather strange, teeming with what seemed to be an endless variety of spirits and monsters.

From time to time, a few strangely-shaped creatures would stealthily poke their heads out, only to quickly retract them upon seeing the two of them.

The surrounding vines also seemed to be alive.

As Wang Xiao walked forward, these vines wriggled continuously, like pythons.

The surrounding trees also shifted with Wang Xiao’s steps.

They were like a host of invisible guards.

Most importantly, Wang Xiao discovered that in this place, a portion of the Gang Qi in his body seemed to be suppressed, unable to circulate smoothly.

Suppressing his curiosity, Wang Xiao followed Yan Chiyang for several miles, finally stopping before a cliff face thousands of feet high and completely covered in vines.

At the base of the cliff, a dark cave could be vaguely seen amidst the tangle of vines.

Yan Chiyang bowed and said, "Sect Leader, Wang Chongyang has arrived."

Wang Xiao looked at the cave before him, a glint in his eyes.

The Quanxing Sect Leader was inside this cave.

It was indeed well-hidden.

No wonder the Great Hao Divine Dynasty had been searching for so long without finding him.

Just as Wang Xiao was pondering this...

RUMBLE!

The entire cliff face suddenly shuddered violently.

Immediately, countless vines retracted, revealing the true face of the cliff.

On the cliff face, innumerable stones, some concave and others convex, actually formed a massive, square-jawed human face!

The face looked ancient and weathered, and the cave below now seemed to be its mouth!

A deep, ethereal voice echoed out from within the cave:

"Young friend, my apologies. I slept a little too long this time and was unable to see you sooner."

Wang Xiao stared at the face that was thousands of feet high, feeling as insignificant as an ant.

He had thought the Quanxing Sect Leader lived inside the cave.

But he never would have imagined that the cave was merely the Quanxing Sect Leader’s mouth.

What was this Quanxing Sect Leader?

A Mountain God?

An Earth God?!

Wang Xiao had been in this world for over a decade and had seen his fair share of demons, ghosts, and spirits.

But he had never seen such a colossal being!

With a flicker in his eyes, he directly used his Analyze All Things Talent on the Quanxing Sect Leader.

[Analyzing...]

[Analysis Successful]

[God of Great Yin Mountain. A spirit born after Great Yin Mountain absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism for ten thousand years and received the Incense of all living beings. It has a gentle temperament, and its strength is comparable to the Dao Realm...]

Wang Xiao’s eyes flickered as he read the lines of text that appeared before him.

’So it really is a Mountain God! To think a mountain could actually gain Spirituality.’

’It seems I’ve still underestimated the wonders of this world.’

Just as Wang Xiao was lost in thought...

The God of Great Yin Mountain, who was also the Quanxing Sect Leader, spoke again, his voice echoing:

"Young friend, I have only just awakened. My Yin Spirit has not yet acclimated. Please wait a moment."

As his voice fell...

The cliff face before them began to rumble and shake once more.

Following that, a thick wave of Incense Smoke billowed out from the cave.

Then, countless vines converged, transforming into a kind-faced, benevolent-looking old man holding a staff.

He looked at Wang Xiao and uttered a sentence that made his Heart Spirit shudder:

"The fact that you are here proves that Miss Xiaodie’s plan was a success. She truly was remarkable."

A sharp glint flashed in Wang Xiao’s eyes.

"Sect Leader, what do you mean by that?"

This Quanxing Sect Leader before him not only knew his predecessor’s mother, but he had even recognized his identity.

This made Wang Xiao all the more curious about this Quanxing Sect Leader.

Perhaps he could learn something about his predecessor’s birth mother, Ning Xiaodie, from this Quanxing Sect Leader.
