155: Chapter 155 Red Moon Mountain, A Tremendous Opportunity

Controlling the Shun Kingdom was far too simple for the Lanyuan Sect.

Before this, Ning Feichi had, in a sense, already taken control of the Shun Kingdom.

This time, the Lanyuan Sect didn't bother with schemes behind the scenes.

They prepared to seize control of the Shun Kingdom openly, intending to use the entire nation's power to find Li Yuan.

Li Yuan hadn't just killed a few Disciples of the Lanyuan Sect or some unimportant guards.

The one who died was the son of the Sect Master.

Stirring up such waves in this remote place was merely a trivial matter in their eyes.

The actions taken by the Lanyuan Sect spread completely within a few days.

Not just the Shun Kingdom, but the neighboring countries' courts and commoners were equally shaken.

Some were panicked and afraid.

There were also those with grudges against Li Yuan who felt as if the sun was finally rising again.

The hidden Amber Sovereign even considered seeking refuge with the Lanyuan Sect to help track down Li Yuan.

Over in the Jin Kingdom, there seemed to be many who harbored deep hatred for Li Yuan as well.

Coupled with the dominance displayed by the Lanyuan Sect, these people were very much inclined to pledge their loyalty.

Seeing the formidable strength shown by the Lanyuan Sect's Martial Artists, in their eyes, Li Yuan's life would be over the moment he showed his face.

Now, their only worry was whether the Lanyuan Sect people would accept their submission...

...

The outskirts of Red Moon Mountain.

Li Yuan settled down in the nearest small town.

This obscure little town had become extraordinarily lively recently.

Martial Artists in extraordinary attire could be seen everywhere, coming and going.

Quite a few Martial Artists from major Sects had been drawn here by this Opportunity.

Most of the newcomers were young Martial Artists; middle-aged ones were fewer.

Li Yuan ordered some side dishes at a tavern in town, gave the waiter some extra silver, and inquired about relevant matters.

From the waiter's reply, Red Moon Mountain was indeed quite strange.

In the heart of Red Moon Mountain, the surrounding Qi was completely different from other places.

In there, not only was the Qi thin, but there was also a bizarre suppressive force.

This mysterious suppressive force firmly limited the Realm of any Martial Artist who entered the heart of Red Moon Mountain to the First Grade of the Shenzhen Realm.

With such a strange situation, the older generation and the mainstays of the various Sects instead didn't dare to come and chase this Opportunity.

Their martial strength would have no advantage at all in the heart of Red Moon Mountain.

Once they stepped inside, they would no longer be able to easily subdue the Juniors who were usually respectful before them.

In response to this situation, the Sects of Tianqiong Continent mostly sent out their younger generation.

Some middle-aged Martial Artists of average strength also came here to take a gamble.

Of course, even if the martial Realm was suppressed, the difference in strength between Martial Artists still existed.

Stepping into the heart of Red Moon Mountain meant facing difficulties beyond just other competitors.

Tianqiong Continent was filled with Qi, and the wild beasts in the mountains were several times more ferocious than those in the Shun Kingdom.

Even Shenzhen Realm Martial Artists had to be wary when facing some Vicious Beasts.

The anomalies at Red Moon Mountain had only just begun to manifest.

Over the past month, this suppressive force had become increasingly obvious, but it had not yet reached its peak.

It seemed there was still a chance for those who wanted to fight for this Opportunity.

After staying in the small town for two days, Li Yuan set out and entered Red Moon Mountain.

Red Moon Mountain was not a single mountain, but a large surrounding area.

Even with Li Yuan's current Third Grade Shenzhen Realm strength, aided by top-tier movement techniques, it would take him over an hour to cross Red Moon Mountain.

In such a vast area, finding that Opportunity wouldn't be easy.

However, for Li Yuan, it didn't matter if he didn't get this Opportunity.

If he could perform the Corpse Looting Technique a few times, it would be a bountiful harvest.

After Li Yuan stepped into this area of Red Moon Mountain, he didn't rush into the heart of the mountain range himself.

For what he sought, the Opportunity was actually secondary.

To use the Corpse Looting Technique, there had to be corpses.

If he went in through a remote and hidden route, let alone corpses, he wouldn't even see a person.

If he chose a crowded route, it was possible that the benefits would be snatched up first by Martial Artists from other major powers.

There was certainly no chance of picking up any benefits that way.

But these people were very likely to lose their lives on the way to picking things up.

If he couldn't pick up other useful treasures, he would just take benefits from these people.

Looting a corpse once yielded more than picking up ten treasures.

On the outskirts of Red Moon Mountain, the suppression of the martial Realm was not obvious.

Li Yuan's Fourth Grade Shenzhen Realm martial level was basically unaffected.

After circling the outskirts, Li Yuan saw a more crowded area to the southwest.

One could enter Red Moon Mountain from all directions, yet this particular line was crowded with young people.

Furthermore, the young Martial Artists on this line, whether male or female, all possessed extraordinary bearings.

Even without looking at their clothes, one could feel that the status of these young Martial Artists was unusual.

To be able to cultivate such young Martial Artists, the Foundation of the powers behind them must also be extraordinary.

Seeing Li Yuan follow them onto this line, the young Martial Artists along the way all scanned him over.

After a careful look, they determined that Li Yuan was an unknown Martial Artist.

The scrutiny in their eyes quickly turned into contempt.

When that look appeared, they even shook their heads with a bit of pity.

Li Yuan didn't care about their opinions; he simply followed this line and began walking toward the heart of Red Moon Mountain.

Red Moon Mountain was not a place where rumors of Opportunities surfaced for the first time.

Every six or seven years, such rumors would emerge.

And the rumors had been verified multiple times.

Twice, the Opportunities that appeared when entering the heart of Red Moon Mountain from the southwest had fallen along this very route.

Li Yuan still had confidence in his heart regarding the potential dangers.

The martial Realm suppression in this region was actually more beneficial to him.

His Foundation was so solid, and with the help of the Corpse Looting Technique, his Physique far surpassed that of ordinary people.

Since everyone's martial Realm was being suppressed, Li Yuan felt that he was actually safer.

On the way to the heart of Red Moon Mountain, Li Yuan's gaze constantly swept over these young Martial Artists.

He wondered who would be the unlucky one that he would get to loot.

While he was hesitating, a young Fairy blocked Li Yuan's path.

She wore dark green clothes, looking somewhat elegant.

Her appearance was also beautiful, the kind of beauty that leaned toward sweet and playful.

When young men saw her, their moods seemed to brighten, and they would unconsciously want to smile.

“Young Master, may I be so bold as to ask which power you belong to?”

The young Fairy spoke softly, and her tone was very polite.

Hearing this inquiry, Li Yuan unconsciously frowned.

“Does one need a major power to back them up just to walk around here?”

Li Yuan's reply was not polite.

No matter how polite the tone, she was still prying into Li Yuan's personal business.

Why should he reveal the power behind him to a stranger at will?

Upon hearing this, the young Fairy's face showed a hint of apology.

“Please forgive me, Young Master. I only wanted to say that this route into the mountain is extremely dangerous.

Without the guidance and warnings of Sect elders, it is very easy to lose one's life...”

“Thank you for the warning, I am aware of the situation.

If I truly lose my life, it is simply my own bad luck and a fate I was meant to suffer.”

Hearing Li Yuan's answer, the young Fairy also politely stepped back.
