As he walked in the Kunlun Mountains, Xu Wendong felt as insignificant as an ant.
What t his eyes were so lofty peaks that pierced the clouds, many hidden deep within the white clouds.
"It is said that Kunlun Mountain is the first divine mountain of the Great Xia, the origin of mythology, and that the Goddess Nüwa, Emperor Pangu, and the Queen Mother of the West all have close connections with this place."
"There’s even a legend that the palace of the Queen Mother of the West is built here in the Kunlun Mountains, but no one knows its exact location."
Of course.
Compared to those elusive legends, Xu Wendong was more eager to know where his father had obtained the Dragon Phoenix Creation Technique all those years ago, for this cultivation technique he practiced was found by his father by chance in the Kunlun Mountains.
He headed towards the direction of the Valley of Death while observing the terrain of the Kunlun Mountains.
As the myth said, the Kunlun Mountains truly were the ancestors of a myriad of mountains, with countless dragon veins, all of which converged into the shape of a Divine Dragon.
"The dragon in the descendants of the dragon must refer to the Kunlun Mountains, right?" Xu Wendong muttered to himself.
The temperature difference within the Kunlun Mountains was significant, with mostly icy glaciers and snowfields inside, but there were also so rare grasslands, ho to many animals unique to high altitudes.
Tibetan antelopes, yaks, snow leopards, Tibetan mastiffs, and others.
Those animals all had a strong territorial awareness and aggressiveness.
However, after sensing Xu Wendong’s aura, they all wisely avoided him.
After a long trek of a day and a night,
Xu Wendong eventually arrived at a quiet, desolate valley in the early hours of the next day.
Now, with his cultivation level at the Fifth Level of the Foundation Establishnt Stage, his vision was incredible; if the weather was clear, he could even see the grasses and trees over ten kiloters away.
At present, he could see the scene inside the Valley of Death.
Although there were so sparse green grasses on the ground outside the valley, it was a barren wasteland inside, as if they were two entirely different worlds.
Furthermore, there were many animal skeletons inside the valley, giving off an eerie, ominous vibe.
Xu Wendong glanced at the map in his hand, "According to the markings on the map, I just need to enter the Valley of Death, head north for three kiloters, take a right at the Y-shaped junction, and I should see a bottomless cliff. Enter the cliff, and you can access the Kunlun Mountains Minor World."
With many cultivators entering the mundane world one after another, the entrance to the Kunlun Mountains Minor World was no longer a secret. Previously, no one would have thought that a bottomless cliff was the gateway to the Kunlun Mountains Minor World.
"We need to speed up and enter the Kunlun Mountains Minor World to prevent those from the Azure Dragon Stronghold from coming into the mundane world." Xu Wendong’s figure transford into a blurred shadow, heading straight into the Kunlun Mountains Minor World.
Actually, there were several routes to the Valley of Death, but the one he had just taken was undoubtedly the shortest and most level.
He hadn’t encountered anyone from the Azure Dragon Stronghold along the way, suggesting they hadn’t erged yet.
So.
If he could gain entrance first, it would make things easier.
Yet the mont Xu Wendong entered the Valley of Death, he suddenly sensed an ominous premonition, as if a terrifying threat lood in the shadows.
Looking up,
The previously clear sky turned overcast and clouded.
A bolt of lightning struck without warning.
Xu Wendong reacted quickly, constantly shifting his form the mont he sensed impending danger. Thus, when the lightning fell, he successfully evaded this strike.
However.
Before he could catch his breath, a second bolt of lightning dropped without any warning.
This ti.
Xu Wendong couldn’t escape.
But he wasn’t afraid because he wore an amulet.
He just didn’t know whether the amulet could withstand the lightning’s assault.
Buzz!
Sure enough, when the second bolt of lightning struck him, a brilliant aura erupted from his body, directly blocking the lightning.
Even though the lightning appeared formidable and overwhelming, it couldn’t penetrate the light emanating from him.
Xu Wendong breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as he could overco the lightning, what would he have to fear?
"Although the scientific community claims the Valley of Death is a human no-go zone due to its magnetic fields causing frequent lightning, which kills unwary animals here."
"But it’s certainly not because of the magnetic fields. If I’m not mistaken, a formation must have been set here by a powerful being to prevent the world from glimpsing the existence of the Kunlun Mountains Minor World."
Xu Wendong had actually seen so reports about the Valley of Death online, but here he could faintly sense a fluctuation of a formation.
However, on the vast path of the formation, he was an out-and-out novice, unable to discern the type of formation.
But with the amulet warding off the occasional lightning strikes from above, his journey beca much easier as he followed the directions on the map.
He finally reached the Y-shaped junction and proceeded further until the bottomless cliff appeared before him.
Wind howled up from the abyss below, sounding like evil ghosts wailing, instilling a sense of unease.
Fortunately, Xu Wendong knew this was the gateway to the Kunlun Mountains Minor World. If he hadn’t known beforehand, he wouldn’t have dared to jump into the cliff, even if he had wandered here by mistake.
He hesitated no longer, leaping into the abyss.
The instant he leaped, the scenery before him twisted, as if he had traversed a Space-Ti Gate.
When his vision returned to normal, he found himself atop a fragrant, scenic peak.
Beneath his feet was an Eight Trigrams-shaped altar, which exuded an ancient aura.
Evidently, this altar must have been here for many years.
Looking around, all he saw was lush green vegetation, vibrant and full of life.
It starkly contrasted the icy and snowy landscape of the Kunlun Mountains.
Moreover, the Spiritual Energy here was not inferior to that of the mundane world.
"Faster!"
At this mont, a commanding voice echoed from mid-mountain.
Simultaneously, a group of more than twenty people was hastening toward Xu Wendong, seemingly preparing to use the Teleportation Array to enter the mundane world.
These individuals were undoubtedly strong, with the weakest at the Third Layer of the Foundation Establishnt Stage, and most were in the mid to late phases of Foundation Establishnt.
Particularly the leader, even Xu Wendong felt an intense sense of danger.
He quickly stepped off the altar, not wanting to make enemies just upon entering the Kunlun Mountains Minor World.
But.
When the group approached the altar, the leading middle-aged man revealed a playful smile, "I truly didn’t expect you’d appear in the Kunlun Mountains Minor World?"
Xu Wendong was utterly baffled.
What did he an by that?
Could this man be Yao Tian, the Second Master of the Azure Dragon Stronghold?
Damn!
I only just entered the Kunlun Mountains Minor World, and I already encountered them—my luck really couldn’t be worse, could it?
