Night Without End

Chapter 1689: Chapter 666: Divine Magnetic Storm—The Other Shore (4)

"Even we Great Grandmasters cannot avoid decay. It’s destined to come, and once we fight fiercely, it will hasten death." The village chief, Jia Heng, still occasionally enters the mountain but rarely takes action and almost never engages in bloody battles.

Qin Ming guessed that he probably had some Primordial Qi, else he wouldn’t dare be so active and must be a man of background.

That night, Jia Heng took the initiative to visit Qin Ming for drinks and inquired about many things concerning the outside world, even asking about a woman named Su Qingwei.

"Never heard of her." Qin Ming shook his head.

"Once a Great Saint, yet her name still hasn’t resonated widely? Then again, the Yewu World is indeed too vast." Jia Heng shook his head with a look of melancholy.

Qin Ming did not ask further and clinked glasses with him.

A moment later, he spoke, "Brother, are you planning to hold out here until the Tao Rhythm resonance ends, to welcome the Golden Age?"

Jia Heng smiled bitterly, "In recent years, even the Heavenly Immortals deep in the Yewu World couldn’t endure it anymore. You can occasionally hear their piercing cries. I suspect that the so-called end might bring an unexpected calamity, defying everyone’s expectations. Now, those with ambition are already trying to adapt to this era, striving to develop new cultivation techniques."

Qin Ming nodded, it seemed there was a consensus across various lands.

Jia Heng put down his wine cup and said, "I’m waiting for an opportunity. Eventually, I will go into the mountain for a final attempt to find my own answer."

Qin Ming asked, "Brother, are you aiming for something big?"

Jia Heng suddenly asked, "Brother, are you a Great Saint?"

Qin Ming said nothing, turning to look at him.

Jia Heng said, "Brother, I had my moments of glory in my time; I’m not a Great Saint, but I’ve been around them. I feel the mysterious Qi Mechanism on you is very similar to theirs."

He continued, "If you are a Great Saint, you can join our group when we venture into the mountains."

Qin Ming did not respond, naturally not rushing into any commitment.

Yet, under their resonance, he sensed that the other party indeed harbored no ill intentions.

Jia Heng said, "No rush, let’s talk about this later, let’s drink."

Through the conversation with him, Qin Ming gained a deeper understanding of Feixian Mountain.

This ancient land was filled with creations but was indeed fraught with danger.

There are some sealed ancient medicine fields on some great mountains, finding and breaking into them could allow one to become an Immortal Flying overnight.

"To say nothing of others, the Divine Objects I’ve personally witnessed are numerous, for instance, the inexplicably appearing Shenci Cave, harboring immense creations, with Purple Qi piercing the sky."

"Deeper into the mountains, there’s an Immortal Tree, rooted in mobile terrains, once appeared briefly in the mist, but vanished in a flash, leaving no chance to grasp."

"Also, high above Feixian Mountain, suspended deep within the Night Fog Sea, are top-tier Immortal Elixirs, visible yet elusive."

"In these mountains lies the Ten-Colored Soil, extremely mysterious. No one knows what is buried within it. Occasionally, it resurges, with auspicious glow reaching the heavens, and Immortal Light in billions of strands, truly divine."

...

That night, Qin Ming felt capricious, his heart fluttered eighteen times!

Deep within Feixian Mountain, countless sacred objects are hidden, the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are countless. However, the Heavenly Immortal Arrays, Earth Immortal cursed grounds, and others aren’t few either.

One wrong step, and it could be eternal damnation.

Qin Ming silently recited the True Scripture to calm himself, not to be swayed by external objects.

He was very clear on the reason for his arrival. Without absolute assurance, he would rather remain here in meditation than venture deeper into exploration.

For over a month, he had been primarily focused on training, while severing the Destiny Same Track Contract. He also studied the Ancestor Insect’s Cry, often going to the uninhabited Night Fog depths to practice.

In these past days, Qin Ming felt he initially mastered it and could use it in combat.

This was definitely a killer move, capable of enhancing his combat strength!

In recent days, the chairman’s outings have become more frequent, and at times, even borrowed Two Puppets and Insect Emperor from Qin Ming.

"What are you... planning to do?" Qin Ming was somewhat worried.

The chairman confessed, "To use them as a transformation."

Instantly, Qin Ming felt as if the sky had collapsed. The chairman using them as transformations, what if they get damaged?

He suspected the chairman was exploring extremely dangerous domains.

The most critical point was that the Insect Emperor might still be alive, with movement behind its gates; if it were injured, Qin Ming feared he’d be held accountable in the end.

Qin Ming said, "You’re taking such risks, I’m somewhat hesitant to lend them."

"Lord, what is there to fear?" The chairman’s silver hair shimmered with starlight, her unparalleled beauty and mesmerizing gaze could unsettle anyone.

It was back on Black and White Mountain when she conceded defeat and addressed him as Lord; today she once again used the same term.

"Please, Chairwoman, I find it a bit scary when you say that." Qin Ming retained due respect for ancient Strongest ones and wasn’t about to casually accept now.

The chairman spoke up, "I am investigating a vague past event, and there are clues within Feixian Mountain crucial to me."

"This..." Qin Ming wanted to help, but couldn’t decide on behalf of the Insect Emperor.

The chairman spoke again, "Rest assured, if they have spirits, they too would agree."

Qin Ming placed Two Puppets and Little Worm in the room, quietly observing them.

The chairman performed Sealing and burned talisman paper, waving it before their eyes.

Then she looked at Qin Ming and said, "Let them stand by the window facing Feixian Mountain, and you need not concern yourself with the rest."

Two days later, great commotion erupted from Feixian Mountain, the chairman immediately stood up, teleported to the window to gaze out, and saw before her an immense surge of auspicious glow and a dramatic tumult of Purple Qi.

An inexplicable path appeared in the Void, reflecting above Feixian Mountain, where a giant youth bellowed.

"The Ancient Douluo Palace’s steed?" the chairman whispered.

Qin Ming’s heart raced, could it be the Supreme Elder’s Green Bull?

When he glanced sideways, he seemed to see Little Worm’s large eyes blink twice, pure and exceptionally clear, entirely different from its past aura of malevolent energy.

"An illusion?" Qin Ming doubted his sanity was wavering.

When he looked at Two Puppets, his expression froze.

At some point, Two Puppets’ right hand had already raised, shading his eyes.

Is there no law anymore?

Are they not bothering to disguise anymore?

Qin Ming looked at the chairman, was she using the two as transformations?

Or was it truly them moving of their own accord?

Qin Ming internally griped: Mighty ones... are you pretending I don’t exist?
