Chapter 429: 251 Giant Spirit_4

Not to mention, he had twelve lives and was such a cautious character, always hiding at the back when faced with any threat.

"He’s not that easy to die."

Having this thought, Fang Zhixing slightly smiled and gradually relaxed.

The Second Level Sand Scorpion carried the carriage at high speed, kicking up vast clouds of dust along the way.

What a creature!

The speed of this Mutant Beast was too fast, definitely surpassing that of a fine horse, comparable to a Mount Wolf.

Sitting in the carriage, one could hardly feel any major jolts, steady as could be.

Having such a Mutant Beast for travel was indeed a great relief.

Unknowingly, a morning had passed.

The Second Level Sand Scorpion crossed mountains and rivers, taking a large detour, passing by Dan Ye City, the capital of Dan State, and heading to the west.

Several hundred miles west of Dan Ye City, two imposing mountains rose from the ground.

The tallest of these mountains faced south with its back to the north, its slopes extraordinarily steep and rising high into the clouds like a sword thrust into the earth, hence it was named Great Sword Peak.

Great Sword Peak was too high, with just the mountain body being over ten thousand meters, impossible for birds to cross.

Sunlight hitting the summit of Great Sword Peak cast a shadow so large it blotted out the sky and left the area in darkness.

Conveniently, on the backside of Great Sword Peak was a lower mountain head, which remained in the shadow of Great Sword Peak all year round, eternally dark, extremely cold, and heavy with Yin energy.

"There’s a rumor that an ancient Tyrant built a guillotine halfway up Great Sword Peak, and all the bodies of the beheaded were thrown behind the mountain, falling onto the Extreme Yin Mountain. Over time, a great change occurred between heaven and earth, and a Fourth Level Restricted Area was born."

Fan Zhenglun lifted the curtain, pointing at the giant mountain in the distance, and began telling the story with a smile.

Fang Zhixing inevitably asked, "Sect Master, do you know how the Restricted Areas came to be?"

Fan Zhenglun replied, "I do not, as I seldom venture out and live secluded, I have never witnessed how a Restricted Area appears."

Fang Zhixing understood and pressed further, "I’ve heard that there are Heavenly People in this world, have you ever seen one?"

Fan Zhenglun laughed, "The tales of the Heavenly People have been around for a long time, filled with elusive and groundless legends.

Ha, to be honest, I’ve never met anyone who dares to claim they’ve seen a Heavenly Person."

Fang Zhixing was momentarily stunned, his smile subtly faded, and he did not pursue the conversation further.

But suddenly, Fan Zhenglun spoke up on his own, "If the Founder had encountered that remarkable person and he was still alive, then he might very well be one of the Heavenly People."

Fang Zhixing’s mind stirred, and he said in surprise, "What, do you not believe that I am the disciple of that remarkable person?"

Fan Zhenglun smiled, "I believe that the remarkable person might have died long ago, and your master is simply his successor, acting under the same name."

Fang Zhixing was taken aback, unsure of what to say for a moment.

It turned out this was Fan Zhenglun’s true thought.

He simply did not believe that the master Fang Zhixing mentioned and the remarkable person encountered by the Founder were the same!

Fang Zhixing couldn’t explain much, unless he revealed the secrets of Tian Yin.

But he himself could not clarify what the Heavenly People really were, and rather than increasing his worries, he thought it wiser to remain silent.

In the midst of casual conversation, the Second Level Sand Scorpion carried them to the base of Great Sword Peak, turned a corner, and entered a mountain path winding around the massive peak.

In less than half an hour, they arrived at the backside of Great Sword Peak.

The afternoon sun was supposed to be harsh, but at that moment, the sky suddenly darkened, as if night had fallen.

Fang Zhixing lifted the curtain and looked up to see the sky pitch-black, devoid of any light.

However, there was fencing for protection on both sides of the mountain path.

Above the fence, lanterns hung at intervals, serving as guide lights.

The Second Level Sand Scorpion continued along the illuminated path...
