- Chapter 40 - Chapter 40 – Heretical Evil Eye, Cangwu Mountain Opens!
At this moment, many people walked over.
Each person looked at Ye Xi with eyes full of confusion.
What had happened today was simply too bizarre, completely beyond their expectations.
First, the ancestor of the An family had transformed into a heretical emperor.
Then, Ye Xi turned out to be a disciple of the Immortal Emperor.
And what exactly was that strange eye that had just appeared in the sky?
Currently, only Ye Xi could answer these questions.
Ye Xi glanced at the crowd, paused for a moment, and said, “You’ve seen the truth as well; I don’t know much either.”
As he spoke, his expression grew serious:
“That strange eye we encountered earlier is what we call the Evil Eye of the Heretical Path. It can devour the spiritual energy, divine abilities, and laws of cultivators, growing increasingly powerful.”
“Powerful cultivators are the best nourishment for it.”
A chill surged through Yuan Ruoyu and the others, making their spines tingle with fear.
Ye Xi continued, “Its favorite nourishment are Emperors. The more laws it devours, the stronger its suppression over cultivators becomes, until they are utterly powerless to resist.”
“As for those who wield the Evil Eye, they are a mysterious group whose origins are unknown. We don’t know how long they have been lurking in this world.”
“I call them the Aliens!”
This revelation was shocking, and everyone remained in stunned silence for a long time.
Among those present were some of the most powerful factions of the age.
Yet, they were completely unaware of such matters.
Yuan Ruoyu felt a stirring in her heart, recalling the last decree from the Heavenly Court. Could it be that these beings came from the heavens?
Just thinking about it sent a wave of dread through her.
The An family had already become pawns; how many such pawns existed in the entire cultivation world?
Ye Qingge suddenly asked, “What is their purpose?”
Ye Xi pondered for a moment before replying, “Their goal may be to constantly evolve and grow stronger, or perhaps to control the entire cultivation world. We can’t be sure at this point.”
There was a collectve gasp from the crowd.
However, some felt that the idea of controlling the entire cultivation world was a bit alarmist.
What an incredibly difficult task that would be!
Throughout history, no force had ever achieved that.
“It’s no wonder; have you noticed that the current cultivation world, compared to hundreds of thousands of years ago…”
“The number of powerful cultivators has been steadily decreasing.”
“In ancient times, many sects had Emperors stationed at their helm, and it was common for several Emperors to appear in a single holy land!”
At this point, someone shared their opinion.
Combined with what Ye Xi had just said, it seemed they were beginning to understand something.
Ye Xi seized the opportunity and added, “The Emperors of that time ascended after surviving the tribulation and becoming immortals.”
“I don’t know when it started, but it turned into an opening to the Heavenly Realm, where they ascended in glory.”
Ye Xi sighed as he continued, “Perhaps opening Cangwu Mountain will yield some discoveries.”
At this point, everyone recalled the contents of the Immortal Emperor’s Diary.
Cangwu Mountain hid secrets about ascension.
Ye Qingge pondered for a moment and said, “Let’s go! We should open Cangwu Mountain and take a look!”
Given the significance of the matter, everyone’s expression turned grave.
They now understood what the Immortal Emperor meant when he spoke of matters concerning the entire cultivation world.
Figures soared into the sky.
Under the leadership of Ye Xi and the others, they flew toward Cangwu Mountain.
Thousands of cultivators streaked across the sky, densely packed together, resembling a swarm of locusts sweeping through.
A moment later.
Ye Xi, Yuan Ruoyu, and the others had already arrived above Cangwu Mountain.
The rest arrived one after another, gathering behind them.
After what had transpired today, many felt a lingering fear in their hearts and didn’t dare to get too close.
Even if there was a true opportunity, they had to ensure their lives first!
Cangwu Mountain.
Towering into the clouds, majestic and grand.
However, from the outside, it looked just like a tall mountain, without any unusual features.
Originally, there had been An family cultivators stationed here year-round, making it difficult for outsiders to approach.
But now, the An family had been defeated, and their ancestors had perished.
Many members of the An family were now in a frantic state, fleeing for their lives, leaving the area largely unguarded.
Only the arranged restrictions and seals remained.
Forcibly breaking through would require some effort, but without anyone guarding it and with so many powerful individuals arriving, it wouldn’t be a major problem.
Ye Xi glanced around and said sternly, “All cultivators above the Mahayana stage, come with me to make a move!”
“The rest, step back a thousand feet!”
At that moment, no one dared to question his authority. At his command, all the other cultivators stepped back.
Only the leaders of some top factions remained nearby.
“Break the formation!”
Ye Xi let out a long roar, and surging spiritual energy erupted from his body, the power of laws circulating.
A realm resembling the heavens materialized.
The atmosphere was imposing and incredibly shocking.
The Zitong Emperor soared into the air, black mist enveloping one side as it seeped into Cangwu Mountain.
Ye Qingge held a long sword, her unparalleled sword intent erupting, cutting through the air like a rainbow.
Yuan Ruoyu formed seals with her hands, her divine abilities bursting at her fingertips, a sacred lotus blooming, radiating an overwhelming power that left people breathless.
The others also moved at once.
From all directions, cultivators activated their techniques and powers, summoning treasures and unleashing astonishing might.
Boom!
Bang, bang, bang!
These attacks fell upon the sky above Cangwu Mountain like raindrops, instantly lighting up with brilliant radiance.
A protective barrier resembling a turtle shell appeared.
As the two forces collided, the ground shook violently, and a terrifying storm swept out, obliterating everything in its path.
Two Emperors and dozens of Mahayana cultivators struck simultaneously.
This scene made the surrounding cultivators gasp in awe, not daring to blink.
Boom!
Crack—
The barrier of Cangwu Mountain held for only a moment before it could no longer withstand the onslaught, cracks spreading across its surface.
“It’s broken!”
Someone exclaimed in delight.
Everyone held their breath, unable to imagine how the Immortal Emperor had discovered this place back then.
And how had he entered so silently?
Bang—
Finally, with another resounding crash, the barrier enveloping Cangwu Mountain was shattered.
At this moment, as everyone looked again, Cangwu Mountain was still Cangwu Mountain.
However, a strange wave was emanating from within the mountain, accompanied by horrifying sounds.
It was extremely eerie.
Everyone fell silent, their eyes fixed intently on Cangwu Mountain.
Ye Qingge’s gaze turned icy as she shouted, “I want to see what’s hidden inside!”
“Zhao Shanhe!”
Captain of the Xuanbird Guards, Zhao Shanhe, responded respectfully, “I’m here!”
“Break open Cangwu Mountain for me!”
“Understood!”
Zhao Shanhe stood on the back of the Xuanbird, bathed in flames, his long knife gleaming sharply.
He swung the blade fiercely, unleashing a blade light that stretched thousands of feet down.
The domineering and sharp blade light sliced through the mountain in front of everyone’s eyes.
Crack—
Cangwu Mountain trembled violently as the blade light penetrated through, splitting it apart.
“What is this?”
“How could this happen?”
However, when the dust settled and everyone saw what lay inside Cangwu Mountain, they stood frozen, as if carved from wood.
Terror showed in their eyes!
Even powerful figures like Ye Qingge could not help but tremble, their faces turning pale.
