Heavenly Divine Mountain’s Secret

The wall of Medicine Capital wasn’t tall and had collapsed in some parts. They were full of marks of time, but since ancient times, the city had always flourished. This place no longer needed walls.

During these past few days, Shi Hao gained a lot. The top figures of various sects all came to pay him a visit, and none of them came empty-handed. A few of them brought spiritual medicines.

“Is this the flower produced by the spiritual medicine tree at the city gate?” Shi Hao was extremely excited. The jade box in his hands released a fragrance that filled the air. It was sparkling, and the petals were translucent as if they were flickering with star radiance.

It was a priceless wondrous flower that only bloomed a few times a year. It was unknown just how many people were eyeing it. There was a long queue of people who were after it.

It was a mutated spiritual herb. It had previously absorbed a small pool of Lightning Tribulation Liquid, and now, it has become a spiritual medicine tree. After living for several thousand years, it was about to turn into a holy medicine. It was incomparably precious.

Shi Hao’s eyes burned with passion. He took a deep breath, and his nose and mouth were filled with medicinal fragrance. He immediately became full of energy, and the essence of energy within his body flowed with abundance.

“Thank you very much!” He expressed his gratitude. This flower was so valuable and far surpassed ordinary spiritual medicines. He could feel that the divine insect in his hair was already stirring.

This was an old man. He looked quite ordinary, and there was nothing special about him. He was actually the sect master of the Pill Cauldron Sect.

After learning about it, Shi Hao was shocked. This was an ancient sect that had existed for an extremely long time and was even older than the Divine Medicine Sect. It used to be extremely glorious. Countless years ago, when the word cauldron was mentioned, the entire world knew about it.

In the long river of time, everything could be changed. They gradually declined, and now, they were just a dilapidated sect in the Medicine Capital and were about to be forgotten by others.

“I have a son who is extremely talented. Ever since he was young, he wanted to restore the Pill Cauldron Sect’s ancient glory. He ran away from home many years ago just to find the lost inheritance. If you can meet him one day, I hope you can look after him,” the elder said.

Shi Hao naturally wouldn’t refuse. After understanding the situation in detail, he nodded in agreement.

It was rumored that from ancient times until now, only four people had refined the Nine Revolutions Divine Pill, and Pill Cauldron Sect’s first ancestor was one of them. After consuming the divine pill, one could immediately become a deity and ascend.

One could imagine just how astonishing this sect’s inheritance was. If they could find it, they might be able to quickly become powerful one day and recover their ancient glory.

“Let’s go!”

He even obtained the flowers of that spiritual medicine tree. After arriving at the Medicine Capital, he no longer had any regrets. Shi Hao decided to head to Stone Country’s capital to read that letter.

Of course, he didn’t forget why he came to the Medicine Capital. He still had to continue doing those things, which was to search for spiritual medicines and strive to gather what he needed to refine a furnace of Minor Nirvana Pills.

This was a great golden path that allowed one to break through the shackles and become a supreme expert.

A chaotic world was about to arrive, and even supreme experts were fleeing. Just how terrifying would it be? It was hard to imagine! A bit more power would give one more capital to support himself and help one to survive.

Spiritual medicines were rare. Theoretically speaking, a spiritual mountain could only produce one stalk. If not for the Medicine Capital, how could Shi Hao have such a harvest?

However, despite this being the case, when he left, he only had ten stalks on him. On this trip to the Medicine Capital, he used up everything he had and was completely broke.

It was clear that Stone Country’s capital also had spiritual medicines because there were many great clans there. The founding kings were all gathered here, and he believed that the imperial family’s medicinal fields definitely had rare things.

Shi Hao became famous after a single battle. He had the qualifications to compete for Stone Country’s Human Sovereign, and he even had an extremely great advantage. If he went like this, if nothing unexpected happened, he would obtain great benefits.

Soon afterward, they left the Medicine Capital, preparing to use that beast skin to cross the void when no one was around.

“This trip will likely be extremely dangerous.” Huo Ling’er reminded him.

“I know.” Shi Hao nodded, but he already made all types of preparations.

“Let’s go together. We also want to take a look at Stone Capital.” The Nine-Headed Lion, Flame Crow, Sable, and the others still wanted to go with him.

“Hey, Yun Xi, why are you always following me?” Shi Hao agreed to others’ requests, but when he looked at the purple-clothed girl, he was extremely discontent.

Yun Xi was quite beautiful, and her temperament was extraordinary. However, right now, she was secretly clenching her teeth. Shi Hao’s eyes were fiery as they swept over her body, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Shi Hao continued. “I can’t even get you to introduce a divine mountain to me, nor will you lend me a stalk of holy medicine. However, you follow me around all day to ask for a divine precious artifact. Do you think I should immediately carry you away?”

Yun Xi straightened her beautiful face and hid a trace of disdain in her eyes. She had the urge to beat him up. She secretly vowed that she would teach Shi Hao a lesson sooner or later!

“It’s not like I’m following you. I have a good relationship with the others, so I’m following them. Why do you care where I’m going?”

“Are you provoking me?” Shi Hao looked at her with a grin.

“Hey, what are you doing?!” Yun Xi cried out in alarm. She was tall and graceful, but suddenly, she was lifted, and her pretty face immediately flushed red as she struggled intensely.

“I’ve decided to carry you back to the village,” Shi Hao said.

“Why bother? Just marry her off. I have a clan brother who has a dignified and extraordinary appearance. She’s a perfect match,” Huo Ling’er said.

The remaining ones looked at each other in dismay. They all said that they shouldn’t have internal strife here, but no matter how they looked at it, they weren’t falling out. Moreover, there was a bit of a conspiracy going on.

“Ahem…” The Nine-Headed Lion cleared his throat and said, “Forget it, the Heavenly Divine Mountain’s people aren’t that bad. They helped my clan.”

He tried to smooth things over. The Heavenly Divine Mountain’s venerable once looked for his grandfather, the Nine Spirit King, and gifted him an ancient pill that could help the Nine-Headed Lion evolve into a pure-blooded creature.

Flame Crow also spoke up, saying that the Celestial Race wasn’t arrogant and had some friendship with them. This was especially true for his grandfather—that old Flame Crow had even visited the Heavenly Divine Mountain as a guest.

“It wasn’t easy for me to catch a fatty who meets the criteria and is hostile toward me. How can I let her go so easily?” Shi Hao carried the tall and slender Yun Xi and wouldn’t let go. “Unless she can give me a satisfactory answer, why does she have to chase after me for the armguard every time?”

“I think it’s better to just sell her.” Huo Ling’er prompted Shi Hao with a carefree smile.

“Fairy Yun Xi, why are you always asking for that armguard? I don’t think the Heavenly Divine Mountain needs such a divine artifact, right? Your clan has countless good things,” Flame Crow asked her.

“Exactly. What use does it have?” The nine-headed lion also asked.

“You aren’t going to say anything, right? This time, I’ll definitely carry you back to the village, so you can just guard my manor for me,” Shi Hao purposely spoke in an evil tone and slapped her plump buttocks.

“Ah…” This immediately made Yun Xi scream. Her eyes were spitting fire, and her beautiful face was flushed. She really wanted to bite this hateful bad boy.

It was clear that Shi Hao had teamed up with Huo Ling’er, the Nine-Headed Lion, and the others to press her for an answer. He wanted to understand the use of the armguard. Heavenly Divine Mountain most likely had some great secret, so he played the bad cop, while Flame Crow and the others played the good cop.

“Let’s go. Haven’t you all always been curious about where my home is? Today, I’ll carry her back to guard the village, and while I’m at it, I’ll invite you all as guests,” Shi Hao said. Then, he blinked and said, “The chief has always wanted me to carry a few beautiful fatties back.”

They stood on the void beast skin and quickly tore through the air. In the end, the group of people appeared at the western border of Stone Country. During this process, Yun Xi kept struggling and screaming. She was indeed frightened. She was really scared that she would become the devilish brat’s captive and be savagely brought away.

“Let go of me.” Yun Xi struggled. She was the goddess of the younger generation of the various Archaic Divine Mountains. When had she ever been in such a sorry state?

“Let’s go. We’ll reach my home after a short walk,” said Shi Hao.

“I’ll tell you!” Yun Xi finally couldn’t take it anymore. She was so beautiful, yet she was carried on someone’s shoulders like a spoil of war. It was unbearable.

The group of people immediately became quiet. They looked at her, all of them wishing to know the answer.

“That pair of armguards are keys. They can open an archaic formation and let us leave the imprisonment of this great region., Yun Xi quickly said. She really couldn’t take it anymore.

“What?” Everyone was shaken. The mention of “prison” touched their hearts, immediately making them think of too many things.

“Where exactly are we going?” Huo Ling’er asked. Her jade-like face was full of shock.

No one could calm down. If it was just leaving the wasteland region, then it wouldn’t be that troublesome. If they used all means, they could eventually pass through the region wall that separated great regions.

“That formation wrote that we have to leave the great region’s prison. As for where we are going, we do not know either,” Yun Xi said with a sigh.

“There really is a great secret after all,” Shi Hao said softly. Second Baldy had previously discussed a few things with him.

Back then, Second Baldy was also an expert of his generation, but his nature wasn’t that great. After obtaining a secret, he infiltrated the Heavenly Divine Mountain to search for a great secret. In the end, he vaguely touched the edge of the secret, but it drew the attention of the Heavenly Divine Mountain’s experts. He was chased all the way, and in the end, he hid in the Hundred Shattering Mountains.

The Celestial Clan guarded this precious land, but they didn’t know about this secret. Only in recent years did they unintentionally discover an astonishing record after organizing all types of bone books left behind by archaic celestials.

This secret was extremely terrifying. Even if the Heaven Mending Sect, Immortal Mountain, and Western Sect found out, they would most likely take action and occupy the Heavenly Divine Mountain!

“Leave the great region’s prison? Where exactly am I going?” Shi Hao frowned, his mind heavy. There were too many secrets in this world, and this one undoubtedly had far-reaching effects.

“Let me down first.” Yun Xi’s beautiful face was completely red and full of shame and anger.

Slap! Shi Hao gave her another slap. The sound was crisp and clear, making Yun Xi furious. At the same time, she completely flipped out. She didn’t care about her image as a goddess and opened her mouth to bite.

Gosh!” Shi Hao didn’t pay attention for a moment, and then his ear was bitten by her. He felt a wave of intense pain, and then he hurriedly threw her down to protect himself.

“You really are something. I don’t owe you now!!” Shi Hao shouted.

Yun Xi continuously spat on the ground. Her entire face was red, and she glared at him with her large eyes. She was ashamed and angry. She was the goddess of a heavenly-ranked archaic race, but after encountering this devilish brat, she was repeatedly defeated.

If the people of the Archaic Divine Mountains found out that she bit someone’s ear, they would definitely be so shocked that their jaws would drop. Many youngsters would feel grief and indignation, not daring to believe what they were seeing.

“You’re too eager to take revenge that she bit me.” Shi Hao rubbed his ear angrily, shouting noisily that he was going to get revenge again.

Seeing him like this, Yun Xi was ashamed and resentful. She was almost fainting from anger.

“Fairy Yun Xi, why are you all in such a rush to leave the wasteland region?” Huo Ling’er humbly asked for guidance. She was sincere and gentle because this matter concerned her too much.

At this point, Yun Xi didn’t want to hide anything either because she had long made plans for the worst. If things really didn’t work out, she could tell Shi Hao the truth and bring him out of the great region’s prison.

“Because the truth is too terrifying…” Yun Xi slowly spoke.
