“It’s a pleasure to meet fellow daoists from the Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley,” Qian Mengchen greeted politely with a fist salute.
“I hope that once we enter the Immortal Peak cave abode, if fate allows us to meet, we can support each other and collectively face the cultivators from other races.”
“Hm? Cultivators from other races?”
Hearing Qian Mengchen’s words, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were both slightly taken aback.
Could it be that cultivators from other races will also come here?
Qian Mengchen seemed to have noticed Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s confusion. She was surprised at first, but then she smiled and said,
“It seems this is your first visit to Mount Dao Spirit, right?”
Without waiting for Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to answer, Qian Mengchen continued:
“To be honest, our Celestial Floodgate Realm isn’t the only place to have Mount Dao Spirit in the Spiritual Realm.”
“Not the only place?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were shocked again.
From what they understood from Qian Mengchen’s words, this Mount Dao Spirit appears to exist in multiple realms within the entire Spiritual Realm.
This was very impressive.
Which kind of mountain could be found across various parts of the Spiritual Realm?
At least up to now, besides this Mount Dao Spirit, they had not heard of a second one.
“That’s right.”
Qian Mengchen nodded.
“Other than our Celestial Floodgate Realm, the Tianyao Realm led by the demons, the Tianling Realm led by the eldars, and the Changhai Realm led by the deepsea nomads all have this Mount Dao Spirit.
Every time the Immortal Peak cave abode opened, it would happen all over the Spiritual Realm at the same time.
Most importantly, after entering the Immortal Peak cave abode, people from different realms might encounter each other.
Sometimes, the trials within the cave abode even take the form of race-based confrontations.”
Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan both understood the situation.
But it was precisely because they understood, they felt an even greater reverence for the creator of the Immortal Peak cave abode.
Who could possibly have the power to create this mountain in various parts of the Spiritual Realm and even interconnect different realms?
Such capabilities, perhaps even a Dao Integration Holy Lord, might find difficult to achieve.
Could it be that the other party was an immortal who had achieved immortality?
As they were contemplating this, several streaks of light suddenly approached from the distant sky.
Qian Mengchen, standing beside Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, recognized them at a glance.
The newcomers belonged to the Ghost Hall, an overlord force and a bona fide sect of the demonic path.
That made Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Qian Mengchen frown.
The reason was simple: the way of conduct and the stance of the demonic path sects fundamentally opposed those of the more righteous sects and families, like theirs.
It was rare for the two sides to mingle, let alone cooperate.
Frankly, it would be considered quite fortunate if they didn’t come to blows before even entering Immortal Peak cave abode.
At this moment.
The cultivators from the Ghost Hall had already approached Jiang Chengxuan, Qian Mengchen, and their group.
One of them, a man with a particularly sinister appearance, glanced at Jiang Chengxuan and Qian Mengchen without saying a word, just standing there quietly.
This somewhat relieved Qian Mengchen and her group.
They were worried that these people from Ghost Hall might not understand the situation and start a conflict right there and then, which would be truly troublesome.
“Huh…?”
But at that moment, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s gaze suddenly shifted back to the distant sky.
There.
Several figures appeared, dressed in black robes, each embroidered with a sinister skull pattern.
Initially, Qian Mengchen was puzzled by the couple’s reaction.
However, as time passed, when she saw a few more people appearing again in the distance, her expression immediately changed.
This was because she had already recognized that these people were from the Sacred Skeleton Sect, a super demonic sect known for their ruthlessness, unpredictability, and their practice of sacrificing lower-level cultivators and mortals.
They were true demons in every sense of the word.
In that instant, whether it was Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, or Qian Mengchen, all of them tightened their brows.
They had a premonition that with the arrival of the Sacred Skeleton Sect, their moment ofpeacemight very well be shattered.
“Hahaha!”
Just then, the leading cultivator of the Sacred Skeleton Sect, a man with a string of white bones around his neck and a white hood on his head, burst into laughter.
“It’s unexpected that friends from the Ghost Hall have arrived here before us.”
With that, he and the rest of the Sacred Skeleton Sect cultivators approached the sinister-looking man and his group.
“I am Kang Yuanfei of the Sacred Skeleton Sect. If I’m not mistaken, you must be the Divine Lord Tianyou, right?”
Hearing Kang Yuanfei’s words, the man addressed as Tianyou managed to squeeze out a smile.
“It’s me.”
After a pause, Tianyou spoke again:
“Fellow Daoist Kang, if you don’t mind, after we enter the Immortal Peak cave abode, let’s join forces.”
Hearing this, Kang Yuanfei burst into laughter.
“Of course, we both belong to the demonic path, and it’s only right that we help each other.
However, before that, we need to eliminate some unstable factors.”
As he spoke, Kang Yuanfei’s gaze turned towards Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Qian Mengchen.
“Will you leave on your own accord, or do we need to personally force you out?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s eyes narrowed at once.
Qian Mengchen’s face changed.
“Kang Yuanfei, what do you mean by this? Do you think you’ve already got us cornered?”
“What if I do?”
Suddenly, a terrifying aura surged around Kang Yuanfei.
Behind him, a sword made entirely of bones emitted a horrifying glow.
“A Spiritual Treasure!”
The expressions of the Qian family elders standing behind Qian Mengchen changed drastically.
It’s known that Spiritual Treasures are mostly wielded by cultivators in the Celestial Radiance stage.
For cultivators in the Dharma Form stage like them, possessing a Spiritual Treasure is exceedingly rare.
Even for cultivators born into super families, this holds true.
However, once cultivators of the Dharma Form stage get their hands on a Spiritual Treasure, the boost to their strength is tremendous, potentially allowing them to dominate peers within the same stage.
