429: Prepare a surprise

[Ding! Congratulations to the Master for slaying Xu Wuxin. luck points +730; Xu Wuxin's luck points has been cleared!]

Ji Wuchang did not go far; instead, he concealed himself in the Void Realm ten thousand feet away. He looked at the people from Heavenly Dragon City in the distance, his eyes as calm as water!

He discovered that this group from Heavenly Dragon City was extremely powerful. The woman leading them had a genuine second-level Dao Severing Realm cultivation base.

In addition, he also discovered six people at the first level of the Dao Severing Realm.

As for the ninth level of the Six Gods Realm, there were even more.

It could be said that with this level of strength, Heavenly Dragon City was qualified to sweep through Star Chasing Mountain.

The reason he hadn't left was that he noticed the group from Heavenly Dragon City was currently breaking a Formation not far away.

If he wasn't mistaken, behind this Formation should be the entrance to some Secret Realm!

He was also very interested, so he did not leave!

His eyes darted around, and then he chuckled as a wicked idea popped into his head.

He knew very well that if he were alone, he would definitely be targeted by the people from Heavenly Dragon City.

He wasn't afraid, but he had his principles; they hadn't offended him, so he naturally wouldn't attack them.

He did want to kill a few more Dao Severing Realm experts, but he couldn't allow himself to become a mere killing machine because of it!

His body flickered, and he vanished instantly!

"Have you heard? A Celestial Phenomenon Realm expert's Immortal Cave has appeared, right over in the northeast!"

"You must have heard wrong. I heard it was the Immortal Cave of a supreme realm expert!"

"A supreme realm? How is that possible? In our entire Heavenly Star Province, I've never heard of such a powerhouse existing!"

"I also think it's impossible. Why would a supreme realm expert be willing to stay in the southwestern borderlands?"

In Star Chasing Mountain, a rumor began to spread, sparking discussions and igniting the greed of the masses!

But the story became more distorted as it spread, with all sorts of versions appearing.

Yet, because of this, more and more people began to converge toward the northeast.

The instigator of these rumors was none other than Ji Wuchang!

At this moment, in a dense forest, a group of people was discussing the matter.

This group came from several different cities; although they were temporarily gathered together, they remained wary of one another.

"This news is too fake. A supreme realm expert's Immortal Cave? I don't believe it!"

A man at the eighth level of the Six Gods Realm spoke up. He came from Guangze City and was named Li Haodong!

As soon as he finished speaking, he was immediately refuted by a man not far away.

This man came from Xinshui City, had a ninth-level Six Gods Realm cultivation base, and was named Bai Heyun!

"Fellow Daoist Li, you are ill-informed, aren't you?"

"Back then, our Heavenly Star Province encountered Demon Race experts who nearly wiped us out!"

"Later, countless supreme realm experts appeared and finally wiped out these Demon Race members, though a number of powerhouses also fell."

"You should know about the Heavenly Star Sect; it was the Sect established at the suggestion of those experts. The current Peak Masters are all descendants of those powerhouses!"

"So, it's perfectly normal for a supreme realm expert's Immortal Cave to appear here in Star Chasing Mountain!"

After Bai Heyun's words spread, they immediately drew cheers from those around him, and many people nodded in agreement!

Li Haodong's face couldn't help but turn red, but he still argued defiantly, "Fellow Daoist Bai, that is just a guess of yours."

"That great war happened over a thousand years ago. If a Supreme's Immortal Cave had really been left behind, someone would have claimed it long ago!"

"Besides, the Dynasty must have sent experts to scout Star Chasing Mountain. If there really was something, it wouldn't be our turn!"

Li Haodong's words were also very reasonable and were immediately recognized by a group of people, with many chiming in to agree.

Hearing this, a slight smile appeared at the corner of Li Haodong's mouth, as if he had won a battle!

Bai Heyun smiled slightly and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, you can't put it that way!"

"How can we possibly fathom the methods of a supreme realm expert? They must have extraordinary means to protect their Immortal Caves."

"Everyone has likely heard about the Land of Heaven's Loss, right?"

"Many people searched for the Blood Pool in the Land of Heaven's Loss for over a thousand years—what a long period of time that was."

"Everyone thought the Blood Pool was nothing more than a legend."

"But just recently, the Blood Pool appeared, along with a Demon Race expert."

"Star Chasing Mountain was one of the battlefields back then. It's not at all strange for one or two supreme realm experts to have fallen here."

"Even if we take a step back and assume that Secret Realm doesn't belong to a Supreme, we won't lose anything by going to take a look."

"From the moment we stepped into Star Chasing Mountain, our lives no longer truly belonged to us!"

"During this time, many of the people around us have remained in Star Chasing Mountain forever!"

"No one knows when it will be our turn to stay here forever."

"Therefore, we must seize every Opportunity we can to work hard and raise our cultivation base."

"As for this Secret Realm's emergence, I don't care what you all think or whether you go, but I am definitely going!"

"We cultivators are essentially contending with the Heavens for our lives. If we cannot rise up and be Heaven-Defying, then we will be lost forever; living would be even worse than being a commoner!"

"A commoner can still live a peaceful life, but we could lose our lives at any moment!"

Bai Heyun's words caused many people present to nod simultaneously. Some who had originally supported Li Haodong also turned to agree with Bai Heyun's perspective.

After hearing Bai Heyun's words, Li Haodong's face turned slightly red as he cupped his fists and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai is right. I was being short-sighted just now!"

Hearing Li Haodong's words, Bai Heyun smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Li is too polite; we were just discussing the facts!"

"We are all from small cities, and our strength is far inferior to those from the large cities. If we want to survive in Star Chasing Mountain, we must stand united."

As soon as Bai Heyun spoke, the crowd cheered, and many people agreed with his words.

"Right, we must stand united. Otherwise, if we encounter people from those large cities, we won't even have the ability to resist!"

A man spoke up, a look of determination appearing in his eyes.

Then, one by one, they chimed in. They stood up and headed toward the northeast.

Once everyone had gone far away, Ji Wuchang stepped out from the Void Realm, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

This was the eighth group rushing over there, in addition to others who were currently on their way.

Ji Wuchang's preliminary estimate was that at least twenty cities had been drawn into this.

Added together, their numbers were at least double those of the Heavenly Dragon City group!

In this way, they barely had the ability to go toe-to-toe with Heavenly Dragon City.

Ji Wuchang knew it was time for him to go as well. Fishing in troubled waters had been his goal from the start.

He had prepared such a big surprise for the people of Heavenly Dragon City; he wondered if they would like it.
