Chapter 368

"This is..."

Princess Wei Chuan took a sip of the wine and said in shock: "I know, this is the Hundred-Year Immortal Brew from the Spring Rain Workshop in Nanlong County, but Fellow Daoist's seems even more mellow than the Spring Rain Workshop's!"

He Pingsheng smiled and said: "About the same, I just added some extra ingredients!"

"By the way, how is the Ninth Prince now?"

He Pingsheng looked at Wei Chuan.

Princess Wei Chuan said: "You can't call him the Ninth Prince now; he has already been crowned Crown Prince!"

"And, he has become the personal disciple of our ancestor, and now his status is very grand!"

"Hearing that I was coming this time, he insisted on sneaking over with me to chat with you, but halfway there, he was grabbed back by the ancestor!"

"The ancestor is truly ruthless; he was grabbed by the ear and dragged back. The Crown Prince was howling in pain, and it could be heard from miles away!"

Hearing this story, He Pingsheng couldn't help but smile.

How should I put it?

The Ninth Prince is not a good person, but he is not the kind of sinister and vicious villain either.

Just an ordinary playboy.

This fellow being able to obtain the Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulation was still tainted by He Pingsheng's luck; otherwise, where would there be any Crown Prince?

"Anything else you want to ask?" Princess Wei Chuan said: "This Princess will tell you everything I know!"

"The Thirteenth Prince, right? Don't worry, he has already been marginalized and won't be able to become your enemy in the future!"

Before He Pingsheng could speak, Princess Wei Chuan said it herself.

But in reality, He Pingsheng didn't want to know about the Thirteenth Prince.

He felt that the Thirteenth Prince was not yet qualified to be his opponent.

"That... how is the Phoenix egg that the royal family asked from me doing now?" He Pingsheng is concerned about this thing.

"Phoenix egg, huh!" Wei Chuan smiled, revealing two rows of white and neat teeth: "It hatched more than ten years ago, and hatched a different-blooded Phoenix!"

"This different-blooded Phoenix is extraordinary; when it just broke its shell, it was already at the Golden Core stage cultivation!"

"However, it was only at the first layer of the Golden Core stage and could speak human language!"

He Pingsheng nodded.

Whether these demon beasts or divine beasts, they can understand human speech at the Qi Refining stage; they can communicate with people using spiritual sense at the Foundation Establishment stage; and at the Golden Core stage, they can speak human language.

Higher than that, they can transform, but it's hard to say at what cultivation level they can transform.

There are ten thousand races in the Spirit Realm, and they are all different.

"So fast?" He Pingsheng clicked his tongue.

Princess Wei Chuan said: "Actually, it's not fast. According to the ancestor, if this thing hadn't been brought out by you, it would have been about to hatch too!"

He Pingsheng asked: "Then how was it hatched?"

Princess Wei Chuan said: "I don't know about this, but I heard that the ancestor threw this Phoenix egg into our royal earth fire and roasted it with fierce fire for ten years, and the little Phoenix was born!"

"It should have been hatched by fierce fire!"

He Pingsheng nodded.

It should be like this.

The Phoenix itself is the embodiment of fire.

Since the Phoenix egg in the royal family's hands can be thrown into fierce fire, then the one in He Pingsheng's hands can naturally also be thrown into fierce fire.

It's just that the earth fire is not easy to find.

"Fellow Daoist He, actually, I have one more thing I want to ask you this time!" Princess Wei Chuan said: "The once-in-a-century Nine-Country Grand Competition is about to begin. Do you want to sign up and participate?"

"The Ninth Prince... oh no... I should say the Crown Prince, his meaning is that your combat power is incomparably fierce, and it would be better if you could participate!"

"Nine-Country Grand Competition?"

He Pingsheng clicked his tongue: "What is that?"

He had never heard of it before.

"Hehe..." Princess Wei Chuan said: "You haven't heard of the Nine-Country Grand Competition, but do you know that this Cultivation World is divided into nine countries?"

He Pingsheng did know this point.

The entire Cultivation World, all the territory is divided by nine countries.

These nine countries are: Great Liang, Great Qi, Great Yan, Great Qin, Chu Country, Great Tang Country, Virgin Country, Great Qian Country, and Pilu Country.

He Pingsheng nodded.

Princess Wei Chuan said: "Then Fellow Daoist He, do you know which is the number one mysterious sect force in this Cultivation World?"

At this, He Pingsheng was suddenly speechless.

The number one mysterious sect force?

That is, the largest sect among the nine countries?

Could it be the royal family of some country?

He Pingsheng shook his head with a face full of doubt: "I don't know, may I ask Princess, where is this number one mysterious sect?"

Princess Wei Chuan said: "Naturally, it is in the number one blessed land in this Cultivation World, the number one mysterious sect holy land: Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain!"

He Pingsheng frowned, thinking Princess Wei Chuan was stuttering, so he asked again: "What place? I didn't hear clearly just now, please repeat it, Princess!"

Princess Wei Chuan said: "Hehehe... it's called Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain!"

He Pingsheng repeated in astonishment: "Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain?"

"In which country is it?"

"It's not in the Liang Kingdom, is it?"

He had never heard of it!

Princess Wei Chuan said: "Naturally, it is not in the Liang Kingdom. Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain does not belong to any country, but is on a piece of land in the very middle of the nine countries. This territory, equivalent to the size of a county, is where Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain is located!"

While speaking, Princess Wei Chuan also took out a paper map and spread it out, saying: "Here, look for yourself, it's right here!"

He Pingsheng's gaze fell on the map.

Sure enough, on the map, nine huge countries formed a circle, and in the middle was the blank space of that county.

Here, it does not belong to any national force, and on this county, there is a huge mountain range; needless to say, this is Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain.

"What kind of place is this Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain?" He Pingsheng couldn't help but ask.

He had never heard of this place before.

By logic, the number one mysterious sect in the world shouldn't be so unknown; it should be known to every cultivator in the world.

Princess Wei Chuan said: "First of all, this Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain is a holy land for cultivation, and there are nine top-tier spiritual veins on it!"

"The spiritual energy on the mountain is rich to the extreme!"

"And on this mountain, there is a sect named 【Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Sect】. In this sect, there are two Soul Transformation stage experts!"

"And it is said that the cultivation of these two people has reached the peak of the Soul Transformation stage, only one step away from advancing to the Void Refinement stage!"

"These two are twin brothers; one's Daoist name is 【Ta-Wen】, and the other's Daoist name is 【Ta-Nian】."

"The two brothers joining forces can almost sweep across all the Soul Transformation great experts of the nine countries in the world. This is also the foundation that established Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain as the number one mysterious sect in the Cultivation World!"

He Pingsheng nodded.

No matter when, no matter what level, strength is always the foundation that determines everything.

"Legend has it that the brothers Ta-Wen and Ta-Nian are quiet, inactive, and free from worldly disputes, and are extremely compassionate!"

"So the two of them never wanted to dominate the Cultivation World!"

"But every hundred years, the nine countries will send Golden Core stage disciples to represent their countries to participate in the Grand Competition, to resolve the disputes between countries over the past hundred years!"

"And the location of this Grand Competition is set at Ta-Wen-Ta-Nian Mountain!"
