Chapter 681: Chapter 687: Gathering of Ancient Clans! Overpowering! (Fourth update)
Beiqi Mountain, which was sunlit and clear in the morning, turned into a dreadfully dark snowstorm before noon, cloaking the entire mountain in thick feathers of snow.
Countless people braved the blizzard in Beiqi Mountain. Fights broke out frequently, resulting in numerous casualties.
After the establishment of various powers, fights among races have never ceased. This deep-seated resentment, which had lasted for countless years, exploded, shocking all the practitioners on Northern Island.
As more and more practitioners arrived at Beiqi Mountain, many began to feel that something was off.
Giant flying ships soared across the sky, with several strong practitioners even flying with swords. The violent snowstorm masked all earthly energy. No one knew how many people actually arrived at Beiqi Mountain.
When Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er saw the rogue cat, it was busy swearing in annoyance.
“Miss, things are getting tough. Even the Beiqi Clan has come under tremendous pressure. The Ancient Origin Holy Land and Gu Jin Clan are uniting to break into the Beiqi Clan’s territory. It is said that a sacred shrine named the Tri-Floral Temple exists there,” the rogue cat lamented.
Hua Youyue looked surprised. She asked the rogue cat, “A shrine for the Tri-Floral Saintess?”
The rogue cat sneered, “Never mind whether it’s the shrine for the Tri-Floral Saintess. Just seeing the arrogant behavior of Ancient Origin Holy Land and Gu Jin Clan pisses me off. If only Yang Xiaozi were here. Damn it, looking at them parading around in all their glory, makes me want to slap each one of them.”
Han Yan’er shot a glance at him and said, “Don’t be reckless…did they say anything?”
The rogue cat chuckled and retorted, “Of course, I wouldn’t act recklessly. I am quite refined, you know. They didn’t say much, but they’re now in a stalemate with the Beiqi Clan. If you don’t show up soon, a fight will likely break out.”
Hua Youyue silently looked into the snowy mountains where the Beiqi Clan lived. She took a deep breath and said, “Let’s go there.”
The rogue cat, astonished, yelled at her, “Miss, the Tri-Floral Temple lying in Beiqi Mountain might indeed belong to the Tri-Floral Saintess. The ‘Spirit Soul’ of Tri-Floral Saintess might be there. What if something dangerous happens when you go there now?”
Hua Youyue shook her head, saying, “I have a premonition that they… won’t succeed.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
“They won’t succeed?” The rogue cat laughed raucously, and then asked, puzzled,”What do you mean by that?”
Hua Youyue just smiled and said, “Let’s go.”
Watching the mysterious demeanor of Hua Youyue, the rogue cat hesitated, following behind her while murmuring, “Why is everyone so secretive? Yang Xiaozi is much more to my liking. Simple, straightforward. What’s with all the complex stuff?”
In the Beiqi Clan, Kua Hu wore a grave expression as he stared at an old man full of vigor and said, “I have no idea about the Tri-Floral Saintess. Nor do I ever intend to destroy the home that the Beiqi Clan has painstakingly built. Your aggressive approach is rather excessive, isn’t it?”
The old man full of vigor was Mo Jinyuan, the leader of the Gu Jin Clan. He laughed heartily upon hearing Kua Hu’s words and said, “Clan Leader Kua Hu, you are being overly sensitive. We just want to see if the ‘Spirit Soul’ of the Tri-Floral Saintess is really there or not. This is related to practitioners all over the world solving the eternal mystery. This is the trend of great power, something the Beiqi Clan can’t resist.”
Kua Hu’s face turned even grimmer. He glared at Mo Jinyuan and said coldly, “Just like you, I am also curious about what the eternal mystery is. But you must have felt the aura inside the temple called Tri-Floral. If you destroy the prohibitions inside and release something evil, can you be held responsible?”
Mo Jinyuan burst into laughter, and most of the people around him smirked as well.
In the hall, a young man next to Mo Jinyuan laughed and said, “Chieftain Kua Hu, whether the Tri-Floral Temple is the temple of the Tri-Floral Saintess could be discussed later. We do not feel threatened in any way. To verify if the reincarnated person truly exists, please bring out the Saintess Hua for inquiry. If Saintess Hua is indeed the reincarnated Tri-Floral Saintess as rumored, she would certainly feel something upon approaching the Tri-Floral Temple. The enduring mystery that has baffled the world for tens of thousands of years might be solved at that point. At that time, Chieftain Kua Hu, you would surely make a name for yourself. Why wouldn’t you want to do it?”
Kua Hu burst into laughter and looked at the young man, “It is rumored that the Ancient Origin Holy Land is arrogant and looks down upon everyone else. After seeing it myself, the rumors are indeed true. Let’s not mention that Saintess Hua is not in the Beiqi Clan. Even if she were, with your attitude, Jian Long, is this how you ask for a favor?”
Jian Long’s face fluctuated with a dark expression, a hint of amusement played at the corners of his mouth. He shook his head and said, “Chieftain Kua Hu, what are you talking about? I am merely speaking on the matter at hand. Now, it’s not about what the Ancient Origin Holy Land wants. It’s the general trend of the world. I assume Chieftain Kua Hu has received the news. Tens of thousands of practitioners have come to Beiqi Mountain to verify whether Saintess Hua is the reincarnated Tri-Floral Saintess. Is the Beiqi Clan really going to face the world’s condemnation by hindering this verification process?”
Upon hearing these words, a shadow of uncertainty flashed across Kua Hu’s face.
As Jian Long said, tens of thousands of practitioners had come to Beiqi Mountain. As the chieftain of the Beiqi Clan, who resided in Beiqi Mountain, how could Kua Hu not know this? This grand event was indeed for the verification of reincarnation. If Saintess Hua truly was the reincarnated Tri-Floral Saintess, there might indeed be the key to the enduring secrets within the Tri-Floral Temple.
Had those disappeared saints, even emperors, all reincarnated?
When he received this news, even Kua Hu was excited, let alone others.
However, Kua Hu was also right. Within Beiqi Mountain, there was indeed a place called the Tri-Floral Temple. It was a place accidentally discovered by Kua Hu’s tribe, it was unknown how the news leaked, and it was seized by people from the Ancient Origin Holy Land, leading to today’s situation.
The reason why Kua Hu kept it a secret and even wanted to obstruct it, was not because the Beiqi Clan wanted to claim the Tri-Floral Temple for their own, but because there was indeed a sinister and terrifying evil aura within the Tri-Floral Temple that even Kua Hu, a soul cultivator, could feel.
This evil aura had once made even Kua Hu’s face turn unsightly. He couldn’t recall exactly what it was, but had a bad premonition.
The spirit soul of the Tri-Floral Saintess inside there? Underneath this evil aura, if the spirit soul of the Tri-Floral Saintess was inside, it would be a tremendously dangerous place. As soon as it appeared, the whole Northern Island might be plunged into a crisis.
This evil aura was a power more frightening than the Circulation Phase!
What worried Kua Hu the most was that even such a powerful force was leaking its aura under countless holy level prohibitions.
One could imagine how terrifying the aura would be inside if the Tri-Floral Temple were opened.
Kua Hu took a deep breath and stared at Jian Long and Mo Jinyuan, “This matter is extraordinary. It cannot be decided by your Ancient Origin Holy Land and the Gu Jin clan, nor by the flock-following practitioners all over the world. We need to think long term…”
“What if we join as well?”
The words of Kua Hu hadn’t finished when a gloomy voice came.
Everyone’s face changed as they looked in astonishment at the entrance of the hall.
A group of people walked inside in single file, the three in front had deep auras and cold expressions on their faces. They looked around, not paying attention to anyone in the hall.
“The Yin Kui Clan, the Fire Spirit Clan, Yue Qiong Clan…”
Seeing the three people, Kua Hu’s face turned pale.
What do you think?
