This was somewhat beyond Chu Feng’s expectations. Could one truly enter the World’s First Famous Mountain?
He immediately perked up, especially curious about how Nine Netherworld Entity’s Big Brother’s Master had “crawled out” from inside. That single word, “crawled,” sparked chilling thoughts and endless speculation.
He urged Nine Netherworld Entity, wanting to know all the reasons and circumstances behind it.
“My Big Brother’s Master… was a corpse, suppressed beneath the World’s First Mountain for an unknown number of years, or perhaps it could be said, he lay dead there.”
Just that one sentence left Chu Feng wide-eyed, and his hairs stood on end. What kind of place was the World’s First Mountain?
Nine Netherworld Entity’s Big Brother was no ordinary person. He dared to ambush the patriarchs of even the top-ranked evolutionist families in the Yang Realm, and he had even beaten the once-unrivalled Martial Lunatic from prehistoric times until he was covered in blood, forcing him to flee for his life.
This figure had dominated prehistoric times, sweeping across the world, encountering no equal. What kind of powerful individual must his Master have been?
Nine Netherworld Entity’s Big Brother himself was a madman who dared to provoke anyone and ambush anyone!
Anyone capable of teaching such a madman would undoubtedly be an extraordinary, heaven-defying individual.
However, Chu Feng had never imagined that his Master was once a corpse, one that had crawled out from the World’s First Mountain!
“You can imagine a mischievous child walking the world with a sentient corpse, receiving its guidance, rapidly rising, and sweeping across the land.”
As Nine Netherworld Entity spoke, fragmented scenes indeed flickered before Chu Feng’s eyes, one image after another. Was this truly how the prehistoric madman had grown up?
A sentient corpse taught an unparalleled madman!
However, why did this scene feel so familiar, like déjà vu?
Hmm… Chu Feng thought of himself. Wasn’t he currently walking the world with a corpse?
Then, Nine Netherworld Entity also seemed to recall the current situation. This was truly… similar, causing it to drift into a daze before clearing its throat.
“Why are you coughing?”
Chu Feng realized that this creature was putting on airs, seemingly… waiting for him to point out the similarity.
However, he said nothing, ignoring the hint.
Nine Netherworld Entity couldn’t hold back anymore. It said, “History always repeats itself; the entire world is in a cycle of reincarnation!”
It felt it had given enough obvious hints. If this little rascal were smart, he should quickly flatter it and say a few nice things.
But Chu Feng still ignored it, looking utterly bewildered.
“Ahem, the corpse suppressed beneath the World’s First Famous Mountain has an unimaginably grand origin. The reason it could crawl out is that after billions of years, it became a Nine Netherworld Entity. The implications of this are truly terrifying to ponder!”
An eerie voice emanated from the stone coffin, further hinting. It was practically telling Chu Feng that the current situation was almost identical to the old events of the past.
“Aren’t you going to kneel and acknowledge me as your Master?” Nine Netherworld Entity yearned to shout.
However, Chu Feng just wanted to choke it. He remained uncooperative, offering no response.
“Kid, don’t you think the current situation is very similar to the past? This old man understands prehistoric techniques and countless marvelous arts. I intend to cultivate an unparalleled disciple!”
Nine Netherworld Entity could no longer bear it and laid out its cards directly.
“And then?” Chu Feng asked, blinking his large eyes.
“You… are truly uncooperative!” Nine Netherworld Entity fumed, realizing it was being teased.
Chu Feng pouted. “If your Big Brother were to revive, I might consider it and find a way to learn ultimate techniques from him. As for you, forget it. If you were strong enough back then, you wouldn’t have ended up rotting in a coffin, and you wouldn’t have been terrified just hearing that the Martial Lunatic was still alive!”
“You… you even disdain this old man!”
“If you really want to teach me something, I’ll reluctantly learn a bit. But I doubt you have any profound techniques worth serious study.”
Hearing this, Nine Netherworld Entity’s coffin lid rattled with anger. It decided to ignore him.
“Let’s go! Destination: The World’s First Famous Mountain!” Chu Feng shouted, cheering himself on.
He set off, personally arranging a large-scale teleportation field. As long as he had divine magnetic stones, traversing millions of miles and crossing provinces was not a big problem.
Xia Province was rumored to be one of the provinces in the Yang Realm closest to the central region, a large province exceptionally rich in spiritual essence.
This province was several times larger than ordinary provinces, abundant in resources, with various natural treasures frequently unearthed, yielding astonishing produce.
Especially in some land veins and spiritual mountains, the Great Dao’s laws subtly appeared, like golden edges embedded in fiery clouds, outlining a sacred yet incomplete splendor.
This also resulted in a very severe suppression of the Great Dao in Xia Province.
Here, the spiritual essence was rich, and the order was subtly present, making it difficult even for Saints to fly or burrow, forcing them to travel on foot through the vast wilderness.
Even evolutionists at the Illumination stage were unable to fly; only a few exceptionally outstanding individuals could take to the skies!
Therefore, in this province, unless one became a god or belonged to the Feathered Race, stable flight was impossible. Otherwise, one could only fight on the ground. Compared to other provinces, the natural laws here were awe-inspiring.
Chu Feng arrived, and as soon as he emerged from the spatial tunnel, he felt various discomforts. He had originally intended to leap several meters high in celebration and cheer.
Instead, he fell with a splat from mid-air, nearly face-planting.
“This is insane, the suppression is too extreme!” He was quite displeased and also alarmed.
In the borderlands, the suppression only reached the Half-Saint level. In other provinces, at most, it reached the Saint level. But here, he estimated it was even more severe!
Indeed, he learned about the terror of Xia Province from Nine Netherworld Entity.
Nine Netherworld Entity didn’t really want to talk to him, still upset, but couldn’t resist his persistent nagging.
“Old Nine, tell me, what’s the deal with this World’s First Famous Mountain? What strange things are beneath the ground? Even your Big Brother’s inheritance, when you think about it, originated from that mountain—it’s truly terrifying. Tell me, can I really go in? Can I also carry out a sentient corpse and learn unparalleled techniques? Also, what happened to your Big Brother’s Master later?”
Chu Feng prattled on, asking many questions at once.
Nine Netherworld Entity initially gave him the silent treatment, ignoring whatever he said.
“Old Nine, don’t forget, I promised to find you billions of years of rotten corpses to eat. If you don’t cooperate, then there’s nothing I can do!” Chu Feng said, while also connecting to Xia Province’s network, intending to search for himself.
“This damn network, why is it so intermittent? Are there too many famous mountains and rivers in Xia Province, all splitting and blocking signals?” Chu Feng complained.
Chu Feng found some public information. The World’s First Famous Mountain was considered relatively gentle, though its underground was very strange. Ordinary people couldn’t enter; they would be repelled by a light barrier.
Some had heard divine chanting from underground there!
Others had ventured in and seen a corpse sitting on an altar, delivering a sermon, which severely damaged the intruders’ soul light.
However, there were also those who, after entering deep inside, harvested rare fruits. After consuming them, their blood energy surged, their organs resonated like thunder, and eventually, their physique rivaled that of a true dragon.
In short, the area beneath the World’s First Famous Mountain was highly unusual, and it had not been fully explored to this day. Since ancient times, only a few individuals had entered, and their experiences were all quite different.
“My Big Brother’s Master eventually disappeared. My guess is, he either crawled back into the First Famous Mountain or crawled into a certain forbidden zone!”
Nine Netherworld Entity finally spoke, revealing this information.
Chu Feng said, “Can you please not use the word ‘crawled’? It sounds a bit disrespectful, doesn’t it?”
“That’s the reality of it. He couldn’t walk easily, and eventually, his body stiffened and never fully revived. Also, although he was my Big Brother’s Master, he wasn’t necessarily stronger than my Big Brother. Creatures of extraordinary talent are destined to surpass their predecessors; age is no issue.”
Chu Feng shamelessly said, “Are you talking about me? Though young in years, I am destined to transcend the thirty-three heavens and become an ultimate evolutionist!”
“Chirp chirp chirp…” The donkey spirit chimed in obediently, truly a suck-up.
“This mountain is too high, isn’t it?” Chu Feng felt dizzy.
Following the searched route, as Chu Feng approached his destination, he saw a magnificent mountain range along the way. It was truly vast, like sky-supporting pillars, soaring into the cosmos, standing between heaven and earth.
Moreover, it was full of vitality, and the spiritual energy concentration here far surpassed other regions.
By the roadside, even the wild grasses glowed with a verdant light, and some even bore special seeds, some yellow, some crimson, like fragrant fruits.
“I feel like the World’s First Mountain is near, but aren’t there pictures online showing it as a broken mountain, almost level with the ground? Yet, this place is incredibly tall, it’s astonishing.”
“This place was called Deer Mountain in ancient times. It was where all the heroes of the world once gathered and formed alliances. Alas, I don’t know what it’s called now, but it must be occupied by a top-tier orthodox lineage. You can look it up.”
“This damn broken network, it’s cut off. How am I supposed to look it up?” Chu Feng was exasperated and helpless. Finally, he had to ride the donkey for hundreds of miles, away from that area, before he could find the details.
It was still called Deer Mountain today, adjacent to the World’s First Famous Mountain!
These were two extremes: Deer Mountain soared into the sky, while the World’s First Famous Mountain was almost invisible.
Furthermore, Deer Mountain was indeed extraordinary, with spiritual energy gushing forth like bubbling springs, making it a rare sacred land for evolutionists, coveted by all major sects.
Currently, it belonged to the Yutian Sect, a very powerful evolutionist sect. Apart from a few top-ranked ultimate evolutionist lineages like the Heng, Ji, Buddha, and Li families, few other evolutionist orthodoxies dared to claim they could suppress it.
The Yutian Sect was extremely strong; otherwise, it would be impossible for them to occupy such a treasure land!
“This Yutian Sect is very lively, what’s going on?” Chu Feng stood in the distance, using his Fiery Golden Eyes to see clearly. Many beings were heading towards Deer Mountain, some humans, some other intelligent races.
“Is it the once-every-five-years disciple selection period?” Chu Feng checked again and understood why Deer Mountain’s Yutian Sect was so bustling.
Chu Feng planned to let the donkey spirit go and have it pull the stone coffin away, while he himself wanted to go to the World’s First Famous Mountain alone, so he wouldn’t be too conspicuous when passing the Yutian Sect.
“No, I must go with you!” Nine Netherworld Entity cried out. It insisted on entering the World’s First Famous Mountain and didn’t want to miss it.
And in an instant, the Heavenly Gold Stone Coffin shrunk, becoming palm-sized, and landed on the ground.
“This… is good!” Chu Feng was overjoyed. He hadn’t expected the coffin Nine Netherworld Entity had refined could change size. He weighed it in his hand and sighed, “It’s perfect as a brick!”
Then, he glared, telling the donkey spirit to run off and eat grass, hoping they would meet again someday.
*Swoosh!*
Chu Feng had to act, severing part of the donkey spirit’s memories to prevent any leaks about him, as the Yutian Sect was here, and he needed to be cautious.
As he passed the magnificent mountain gate, Chu Feng was surprised to see it was a sea of people—or perhaps, a sea of beasts and birds. There were simply too many intelligent beings, all hoping to become disciples and enter Deer Mountain’s Yutian Sect.
After all, the Yutian Sect was now one of the great evolutionist sects, second only to the strongest few lineages, famous throughout the land and respected across all provinces.
“Hmm, good, a promising sprout!” Someone at the mountain gate was selecting disciples, testing their bone structure and aptitude.
“Young man, your physique is a bit weak; it’s not suitable for our Yutian Sect’s overbearing breathing technique. Please return.”
The selection here could affect a person’s entire life; it was very formal and strict.
“Hmm, have you heard? A prodigy appeared in Shang Province. When he was born, his soul light was inscribed with characters. It was only recently, when he grew a little older and was sent to a great sect as a disciple, that this was revealed. It’s truly astounding!”
“I’ve heard too! Born with innate knowledge, with characters inscribed in his soul light—unheard of and unseen throughout history, it’s too astonishing!”
“Actually, several other renowned great sects have also recently received such disciples. They all treat them as prized treasures, considering them heaven-defying prodigies!”
At the mountain gate, some people were discussing. Evolutionists from various races, bringing their children, patiently waited, talking about recent unusual events.
Upon hearing this, Chu Feng’s heart immediately stirred.
“Make way!” At that moment, a six or seven-year-old child, with a pair of silver horns on his head—belonging to an unknown race—walked straight towards the mountain gate, head held high, full of confidence.
“Eh? This child’s soul light is incredibly vast! Heavens, are there characters inscribed on his soul body?!” an elder exclaimed in surprise.
“What? Our Yutian Sect has also received such a peculiar and potentially powerful disciple?!” In the distance, higher-ranking elders were startled.
“Quickly invite Elder Yin Ming; he has studied ancient evolutionist civilization scripts. Let him examine what these innate characters mean!”
The six or seven-year-old boy held his head high, full of pride and confidence, glancing at the crowd including Chu Feng at the foot of the mountain, not putting them in his eyes.
“Hmm, the rumors about the talented prodigy in Shang Province with inscribed characters have been raging recently. Many people were invited to view them, but no one recognized them.”
An elder spoke, his eyes burning with hope that the Yutian Sect’s most learned elder would be able to recognize them.
“He’s here!”
An old and frail man, with a bent body and skin and bones, slowly approached. A powerful elder respectfully supported him.
“Recently, these strange talents have successively appeared in famous great sects. I feel it might be the same script. Let me take a look.”
Elder Yin Ming arrived and examined the genius’s soul light.
He immediately furrowed his brows and said, “This is Yin script, a very obscure ancient character. What… does this mean?!”
He looked for a long time, studying it for a significant period, before finally, uncertainly, reading out: “My uncle… is Chu Feng?!”
After reading it, he simply stared in a daze. After a long time, he murmured, “Why do I have a feeling something big is about to happen?!”
