Chapter 1303: The Barbarian King Mountain

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The setting sun stretched the shadows of the people.

There was no one in the desolate desert, making it seem desolate.

A ripple appeared in the air, and Ou Yangming suddenly appeared. He turned around and looked into the distance with a smile in his eyes.

The law of extermination could not harm Chi Ming, so Ou Yangming gave up on the idea of continuing the battle.

That was because there was no point in continuing.

He was not disappointed. After all, Chi Ming was the third greatest figure in the Heavenly Path Alliance.

In a way, there were only 2 people who were stronger than Chi Ming in the Third World.

How could such a powerhouse be so simple?

Compared to a year ago when Ou Yangming was outside the Mystic Sky Sect, where he had no way of resisting, he could now leave calmly in the face of Chi Ming. This was a huge improvement. At least Chi Ming could not hurt him. Moreover, he also knew the other party’s purpose.

The hand bone!

Ou Yangming sat cross-legged on the desert. A few grey wolves from afar were carefully approaching him. They had treated him as a delicacy.

He turned around and blinked his eyes slightly.

The few grey wolves howled, and their bodies disappeared into thin air as if they had never appeared.

Ou Yangming took out the box from the interspatial ring. The box looked very simple and gave off a boundless and ancient aura. Even he did not know what kind of wood it was made of. It was probably not a plant that existed in the Great Wide World.

‘This thing is so important to the Heavenly Path Alliance. Why is it in the hands of the Nine-sworded Ruler?’ Ou Yangming frowned slightly.

From Chi Ming’s performance, it seemed that they urgently needed this thing.

The Nine-sworded Ruler was ranked below the top 100 powerhouses in the Mystic Sky Sect. No matter how one looked at it, such an important thing should not be in his possession.

It was a pity that the Nine-sworded Ruler’s soul fragments did not contain any information about this hand bone. Otherwise, Ou Yangming would have known its value long ago.

Ou Yangming opened the box, and the hand bone was lying quietly inside, no different from before.

He took the bone out of the box. “Hey?”

When he touched the bone, he cried out in surprise.

The bone was incredibly cold. Even in his state at the moment, he could feel the bone-piercing coldness. If it was anyone else, one could imagine what would happen.

Even a second-step powerhouse would be frozen.

After observing for a while, Ou Yangming still could not see any secrets from this hand bone. He frowned slightly. ‘I suppose I still have to ask Chi Ming in the future. That guy surely knows.’

He put the hand bone into the box and returned it to the ring. Sooner or later, he would understand this.

Ou Yangming gradually stood up. He took a step forward, and his body disappeared without a trace.

10,000 Beasts and He Mu were both on this planet. Ou Yangming found them and bid them farewell.

He Mu’s strength had recovered. He was at the peak of the law boundary and was certainly the top existence on this planet. 10,000 Beasts was also at the peak of this place. They were safe here.

There were very few humans on this planet, but there were many spirit beasts. As they were far away from the center and the borders where humans gathered, the information here was very limited.

The most powerful beings here were only Venerable Ones. Once they became Rulers, they would usually cross the void and leave this planet.

After the previous disaster, He Mu had broken through and rose again. Sensing the opportunity to break through, he planned to first advance to the second realm here before leaving this planet. The time was uncertain.

Following a simple farewell, Ou Yangming teleported again and left. He planned to look for Wutong and the others.

It had been more than a year since Ou Yangming left Starlight City. He was still a little worried about the old man and the others. Wutong had been protecting them. His strength had reached the third stage and while he might not be comparable to the leader of the Mystic Sky Sect, in terms of survival ability, he was probably not much weaker.

With the protection of a third-step powerhouse like Wutong, since they were also hiding in an almost hidden place, logically speaking, there should not be any problems.

Nonetheless, Chi Ming and the elder behind Ruler Ying made Ou Yangming feel a sense of danger.

If they found that place, the result would be unimaginable.

Wutong and Ou Yangming’s minds were connected, so the former had sent their coordinates to the latter’s mind.

Ou Yangming took a look at the star map, and his body disappeared again.

Each time he teleported, he would pass through countless planets.

In the past, Ou Yangming needed to rest for a while before he teleported. Now, he did not need to. His physical strength could resist the violent interspatial power.

After 3 days, Ou Yangming arrived on a continent called the Shanhai Continent.

This continent was far from the core of the Humans, the Zhenwu Continent. The environment here was harsh, and spiritual Qi was scarce. Furthermore, there were often ferocious beasts. Therefore, few human powerhouses would come here.

In the center of this Shanhai Continent, there was a huge mountain that stretched for hundreds of millions of kilometers. This mountain was called the Barbarian King Mountain.

The mountain was huge, and it occupied almost half of the continent.

Ou Yangming slowly descended. He released his mental power, and his eyes were filled with surprise.

“As expected.”

This place was very special. After entering the Barbarian King Mountain, no matter how powerful one was, one would not be able to use one’s spiritual sense. No one knew why.

Wutong had told Ou Yangming beforehand, so he was not too surprised.

This place had an incredibly long history. Countless powerhouses had come here to investigate but unsurprisingly, none of them had any gains.

Thousands of years had passed, and everyone was used to the uniqueness of this place.

It was precisely for this reason that Wutong chose this place. He was the king of 10,000 trees, and he could control large areas of trees. As long as someone entered the Barbarian King Mountain, one’s every move could not escape Wutong’s eyes. Even a powerhouse a half step to the Heavenly Rank would not be able to beat him in this game of hide-and-seek.

Just as Ou Yangming landed, a tree root emerged from the ground and turned into Wutong’s figure.

“Master.” Wutong had a smile on his face. “It’s good that you’re okay.”

The last time, Ou Yangming had urgently sent him a voice transmission. Wutong knew that the young fellow must have encountered a big problem. Now that his master had come here safely, the problem must have been solved.

“Luckily, I managed to escape.” Ou Yangming looked left and right and asked, “Where are Old Man and the others?”

“Master, follow me.” Wutong’s body rose into the air, and Ou Yangming followed behind him.

Not long after, the 2 of them came to a flat land. A few small wooden houses were built on the grass, and a small river flowed around the wooden houses, looking somewhat poetic.

In the open space, Ni Yinghong and the others were meditating and cultivating. The old man was lying comfortably on a bamboo chair, fishing by the river.

Seeing their state, the annoyance in Ou Yangming’s heart gradually disappeared.

If he could, he also wanted to live like this in seclusion, but this was just an extravagant hope.

The atmosphere in the Great Wide World was getting tenser, and there was less than a year before the great calamity arrived. If Ou Yangming could not seize that slim chance of survival, all of them would follow the Great Wide World into the cycle of reincarnation unless they could break through to the Heavenly Rank before then.

A powerhouse in the Heavenly Rank could break free from the restrictions of the Great Wide World and enter the legendary chaos.

However, even if they were in the Heavenly Rank, they could at most save their own lives.

Besides, how many people in this world could be equal to heaven?

Ou Yangming could fight with Chi Ming, but the gap between him and being equal to heaven was actually very big.

His real strength had not even broken through to the third step. Even if he had broken through to the third step, he still needed to advance to the peak. At that time, the young fellow would be able to take the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill and further break through to being equal to heaven. It would not even be a 100% success rate.

The Nine Revolutions Golden Pill was only an ideal pill. No one had ever tried it before.

“Lil’ Ming.” Big Yellow’s nose was the most sensitive. He raised his head and saw Ou Yangming in the sky.

His loud shout attracted the attention of several people.

“Ou Yangming.”

“Brother Ming.”

Ou Yangming landed and looked at the girls who rushed over with a smile in his eyes.

“Little br*t, you didn’t inform us that you’re coming back.” Old Craftsman carried on his head a fishing rod made of bamboo, and he held a few big fresh fish in his hands.

“Old Man.” Ou Yangming smiled bitterly and hurried over.

“Today is just right. Everyone’s reunited. I’ll make a fish feast for you all.” Old Craftsman shook his harvest.

“I’ll be your assistant.” Ou Yangming and Old Craftsman used their smithing skills to make fish. The old man was an expert in cooking, and the dishes he made were delicious. The group ate with relish.

“Lil’ Ming, are you still leaving?” Ni Yinghong asked during the feast.

Ou Yangming nodded and explained, “Wutong probably told you that the Great Wide World is about to reincarnate. I have to work hard for our last chance of survival. Otherwise, we’ll all die at that time. Don’t worry. After I seize a divine spark and open up a divine kingdom, I’ll always be by your side. Our family will never be separated.”

“Yes, yes.” Ni Yinghong nodded.

They were all reasonable people, so they knew that it was not easy for Ou Yangming.

“At that time, I’ll return to the Spiritual Realm and bring your family with me,” Ou Yangming promised.

Speaking of the great calamity, this meal was somewhat sad.

The old man thought of the attack on the city in the past, which was somewhat similar to the upcoming calamity. Compared to the disaster that was about to happen, the one in the past was nothing. Even so, back then, Ni Yinghong almost became the victim of the disaster.

After dinner, Wutong came to Ou Yangming’s side.

“What’s wrong, Wutong?” Ou Yangming saw that Wutong had something to say.

They walked to the side of the river. Wutong asked, “Master, do you know why this place is so magical?”

“Do you know why?” Ou Yangming looked at Wutong in surprise. ‘Does he know the mystery that no one has been able to solve for countless years?’
