466: Arrival at Zhonghuang Mountain

However, just as he finished absorbing the Star Source Marrow and was about to leave, an anomaly occurred again!

A more profound and ancient call suddenly came from beneath his feet.

That feeling, however, did not come from this ancient city, but from this Star Remnant Zone, or even deeper within the earth's pulse.

Or rather, it resonated with the legendary Zhonghuang Mountain!

“What is this…”

Ye Xuan's expression tightened as he closed his eyes to sense it carefully.

The call was intermittent, like an ancient will that had been dormant for eons, slowly awakening under the stimulation of the Chaos Fire Seed's aura.

At the same time, the memory fragments of Tai Hao in his mind also seemed to be touched by this call, and some even more blurred snippets began to gradually surface.

“Zhonghuang Mountain… Human Race Ancestral Land… Primordial Chaos Green Lotus… Heaven-Opening Imprint…”

Several keywords flashed through Ye Xuan's mind, causing his heart to tremble violently!

Primordial Chaos Green Lotus? Heaven-Opening Imprint?

Wasn't that the supreme myth related to the great god Pangu's creation of heaven and earth?

This should have been an ancient myth from the world he once inhabited, so how could he sense it here?

Could Tai Hao's grand scheme involve such ancient secrets?

And what did the anomaly of the Chaos Fire Seed signify?

“Husband, what’s wrong?”

Tang Linglong noticed the change in Ye Xuan's expression and asked with concern.

Ye Xuan opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Zhonghuang Mountain, his tone carrying an unprecedented solemnity.

“I may have… underestimated the significance of this Ten Thousand Clans Gathering. Zhonghuang Mountain, I fear, conceals a sky-shattering secret. We must get there as soon as possible!”

He felt that a huge storm was gathering at Zhonghuang Mountain.

It was indeed not simple there.

And if things were truly as he imagined, then it was too… Without further delay, Ye Xuan piloted the flying boat, rushing out of Star Spirit Ancient City at maximum speed.

He sped out of this Star Remnant Zone, heading towards the direction from which the call came.

The flying boat left the Star Remnant Zone far behind, moving at full speed.

Ye Xuan stood at the bow, the Primordial Chaos Fire Lotus imprint on his brow still emitting a gentle warmth, resonating subtly with the distant Zhonghuang Mountain.

The information about the Primordial Chaos Green Lotus and the Heaven-Opening Imprint in Tai Hao's memory fragments made Ye Xuan feel increasingly tired.

Tai Hao's grand scheme was so vast that it made him feel a trace of weariness.

However, Ye Xuan quickly pulled himself together, because he also wanted to see what Tai Hao's scheme would ultimately look like.

The subsequent journey was unexpectedly calm.

Perhaps the news of two consecutive ambushes being easily crushed had spread, causing the hidden forces to temporarily withdraw.

Or perhaps they were brewing an even more lethal move, waiting at Zhonghuang Mountain.

In any case, Ye Xuan was glad for the peace, taking advantage of this time to further digest the benefits brought by the Star Source Marrow.

Tang Linglong, Fire Linger, Sacred Maiden Shen Lan, and others also seized the time to Cultivate and adjust their states.

They all knew that once they reached Zhonghuang Mountain, they would face even more severe challenges.

At the very least, the powerhouses from the Myriad Realms would probably not be much weaker than them, perhaps even stronger.

Time flowed by as the flying boat traveled.

After an unknown period, the previously monotonous starry sky ahead began to change. In the ethereal cosmic background, wisps of Chaos Qi started to appear.

Some shattered continental fragments floated in the Void Realm, with ancient architectural ruins faintly visible on them, exuding a wild and ancient aura.

“We are approaching the outer perimeter of Zhonghuang Mountain.”

Yue Xuan looked at the continental fragments and said softly, “These are fragments of realms that were attached to Zhonghuang Mountain in ancient times. They collapsed during the catastrophe that swept through the Myriad Realms and drifted here.”

“Even just fragments are so powerful?”

Fire Linger was somewhat incredulous.

After all, the power here was more than double that of the Ziwei Great Emperor Star.

“Indeed, the Ancestral Land is very strong, even beyond our imagination.”

Yue Xuan nodded.

“How strong exactly, we will only know once we arrive. Let’s go, prepare yourselves.”

Ye Xuan looked at everyone and said.

“Yes.”

Everyone nodded.

The further they went, the denser the Chaos Qi became, and huge spatial rifts began to appear in the Void Realm. These were ancient wounds that had not yet healed.

In this area, one could occasionally see some massive, strangely shaped ancient Star Beasts floating in the Chaos Qi. Their auras were powerful, but they seemed to be bound by some Law, and did not actively attack passing flying boats.

Finally, after passing through an extremely dense, seemingly impenetrable mist of Chaos, the scene before them suddenly opened up!

It was a magnificent sight beyond words.

An immeasurably vast Divine Mountain floated silently in the center of Chaos. Its height was unknown, as if it supported the entire Universe. Its upper part was hidden in endless clear Chaos Qi, with only the mountainside visible, wreathed in myriad auspicious glows and clouds.

Upon the mountain, streams of waterfalls like the Milky Way flowed down. These were not water, but liquefied Innate Spiritual Qi!

Illusory images of countless rare birds and exotic beasts appeared and vanished among the peaks, and the resonating sounds of the Great Dao echoed faintly.

This was the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains, the origin of the Human Race, Zhonghuang Mountain!

Just gazing at it filled one with awe, making one feel their own insignificance.

Its majestic pressure and ancient Dao rhyme would make even Immortal Gods bow.

And at the foot of Zhonghuang Mountain, an even vaster, boundless plain was already bustling with activity.

Countless flying boats, palaces, and even giant beasts that had manifested their true forms, all of varying designs and exuding powerful auras, floated in the air.

Below Zhonghuang Mountain, different areas were demarcated, representing the powerful forces from the Myriad Realms.

True Dragons roared, Divine Phoenixes sang clearly, Qilins trod on clouds, and Black Tortoises carried mountains.

Descendants of various ancient Divine Beast Bloodlines, previously only existing in legends, were ubiquitous.

There were also some races with strange auras and unpredictable forms, from the Underworld, the Abyss, or other unknown realms.

Powerful auras intertwined and clashed, causing the Laws of heaven and earth in this area to appear somewhat chaotic.

Immortal King-level existences were almost everywhere here, and there were even some Immortal Emperor-level old monsters, whose auras were as deep as an abyss and as vast as the sea, making them unfathomable, lurking among them.

The Ten Thousand Clans Gathering had not officially begun, yet this place had already gathered the most influential figures from the Myriad Realms!

Ye Xuan's flying boat appeared without causing too much of a stir.

After all, here, new forces arrived every day. Although his flying boat was extraordinary, it was not particularly outstanding in this place.

However, when some observant individuals sensed the unique Chaos aura on the flying boat, as well as the undisguised powerful strength of Ye Xuan and his companions, gazes of curiosity, scrutiny, coldness, or greed were cast from all directions.

After all, the Ziwei Great Emperor Star was not considered very strong among the Ten Thousand Clans.

It was even quite weak, yet such a powerful person as Ye Xuan emerged from it, which truly aroused curiosity.
