Chapter 722: Chapter 431 Earth Deity_3
But Zhao Sheng remained unmoved, his heart harboring inscrutable motives. Any condition he offered was merely a mirage, like a flower in the water or the moon in a well; he simply wouldn’t engage in honest trade.
Fang Ziqi tirelessly pressured him for half an hour, but ultimately, his efforts were futile, and he had no choice but to leave angrily.
When Zhao Sheng made a fortune, seven days had passed before he knew it.
…
On this day, the skies were clear and the air was refreshing, the lower forests of Yellow Spirit Peak were fully in bloom, covered with countless flowers.
In the Ten Thousand Laws Hall, nearly a hundred Nascent Soul Ancestors had all taken their places, each bearing a solemn expression and eyes filled with anticipation.
As the twin suns reached midheaven, the spirit cloud that had enveloped the area below the Ten Thousand Laws Hall slowly began to dissipate, revealing a clear and tranquil sky.
Directly beneath the Ten Thousand Laws Hall, facing the plain-looking Yellow Spirit Peak.
However, at this moment, this ancestral peak of the continent began to reveal its divine wonders.
Boom!
The earth trembled incessantly, as if Yellow Spirit Peak had awakened, the mountain body beginning to slightly quiver.
As countless rocks tumbled down the mountain, a vast surge of yellow earthen Qi suddenly burst forth from the peak, shooting into the sky and turning into a boundless expanse of yellow cloud that blotted out the sun and sky.
The Ten Thousand Laws Hall was the first to bear the brunt; the rolling yellow earth Qi filled the entire spiritual realm. An indescribable, majestic and ancient aura permeated out, pressing down on every Nascent Soul Ancestor like a mountain.
Boom, boom!
A series of even more somber booms emanated from deep within the earth, and at this moment, Zhao Sheng’s expression suddenly changed, a look of horror flashing in his eyes.
Because, unbelievably, Yellow Spirit Peak was continuously “growing taller”!
One thousand zhang,
Two thousand zhang,
Three thousand zhang,
…
In just a quarter of an hour, Yellow Spirit Peak, originally no more than a thousand zhang high, shot up from the ground, transforming into a towering and majestic peak of ten thousand zhang.
The peak directly penetrated into the Ten Thousand Laws Hall, revealing a small segment of the mountain body, with its bare rocks and soil clearly visible.
Crack, crack
Just then, Zhao Sheng felt as if he could hear the sound of rocks shattering inside his heart.
The next moment, like everyone else, a look of shock appeared on his face.
For the surface of that segment of the mountain had incredibly split open, revealing two narrow, hundred-zhang long cracks, and behind those cracks… were two enormous gray-white stone eyes.
The stone eyes flickered with the light of intelligence, while also exuding an aura of indifference and sanctity.
From a distance, it appeared as if a great Divine Spirit was watching over a host of insignificant beings.
That’s right! This feeling was absolutely unmistakable!
At this moment, Zhao Sheng was extremely shocked because he had discovered an astonishing truth.
Yellow Ancestor…no, the Mountain Spirit race was actually a naturally-born “Earth Deity”.
“Earth Deity” is very similar to the various “Divine Spirits” of the Netherworld, also possessing a form of Heavenly Dao Authority.
However, “Divine Spirits” can be humans, demons, or even zombie ghosts.
But “Earth Deity” still remains under the control of the Heavenly Dao.
The reason being that the Heavenly Daos of the Netherworld and the Mingye Realm are different; the Netherworld’s Heavenly Dao is strongly eroded by the Blood God, and is at a disadvantage, while the Mingye Realm is the opposite, with its own Heavenly Dao holding the upper hand, barely disturbed by the Blood God.
So, even though they are both fragments of the Heavenly Dao that fell to the Mortal World, possessing a small measure of Heavenly Dao Authority, one became an out-of-control “Divine Spirit”, and the other a naturally nurtured Mountain Spirit.
In essence, Mountain Spirits are a special type of “Earth Deity”.
Ah, ah!
Two screams suddenly rang out from a distance, and two Nascent Soul Ancestors, under the watchful eyes of all, abruptly self-destructed, their blood exploding brilliantly but instantly flushed away by the yellow earthen Qi.
Zhao Sheng vaguely saw two streams of blood-colored shadows dart out from the blood light, but they could not last even a moment, similarly overwhelmed by the earthen Qi.
