Perfect World

- Mount Xumi

“Who is the greatest hero under the sky? It’s me, Great Sovereign Cao!” Cao Yusheng was full of confidence, shouting loudly.

Bark!

As a result, he was directly knocked to the ground by a palm-sized little dog, his face even stepped on, unable to get back up. The little dog stepped on his cheek, barking continuously.

“Already so big, but he is being pressed to the ground by a little dog, moreover had the nerve to shout like this. It really is embarrassing!”

“What great sovereign? You can’t even defeat that dog, bullied like this, truly trash. Can you not make so much noise?”

Along the way, the pedestrians were shocked. When they saw this scene, they all curled their lips, purposely mocking and ridiculing Cao Yusheng.

“Yi, why do I feel like things are a bit strange? Did you all hear, when Wang Da was captured, there was a little dog that participated in that event.”

There were quite a few people along the way, all of them hurrying towards Xumi Mountain, this sacred land.

Xumi Mountain was a sacred land of the ancient monk bloodline. However, unfortunately, because of a battle, Xumi Mountain was beaten into ruin, the peak sinking into primal chaos, not appearing again.

Now, there were only some skeletal remains, as well as a giant broken mountain.

It was rumored that Xumi Mountain towered into outer space before, surrounded by the sun, moon, and stars, vast beyond compare. It was the fourth great peak in the world, imperishable throughout the ages, many divine medicines planted on it.

Apart from this, on the mountain peak, there were immortal herbs and buddha trees, as well as the well-known Bodhi Immortal Tree, a type of unmatched long life medicine.

Unfortunately, as the years passed, the past glory perished. The ancient monk bloodline also declined after Immortal Ancient’s battle, to the extent where it disappeared.

The so-called glory and so-called long life were relative. When a true great disaster descended, there weren’t many who could ensure eternal survival.

There weren’t any obstructions along the way. Shi Hao’s group approached Xumi Mountain’s remains.

Along the way, the ancient mountain towered, extending out continuously. One could imagine just how beautiful and gorgeous this place used to be, there were wisps of extraordinary aura even now.

Most of the mountains were broken, having experienced great battles. The great mountain peaks were all flattened, only half of their once magnificent bodies remaining.

Old vines stretched across, some shockingly thick, those as thick as buckets commonly seen. Crude houses could also be seen, scattered around the mountain ridge. Spiritual energy pervaded the air.

As they went deeper, the plant life was no longer as luxuriant, some ancient lands exposed. There were many remains and broken buildings covering the mountains, the debris shining.

The ancient monk bloodline’s bricks, tiles, and other things were all quite special. There were silver bricked monasteries and golden tiled temples, all of them sacred buildings, immortal monks even seated within them before. Unfortunately, everything had long become smoke.

That battle destroyed everything in the world.

Even the glorious ancient sects were overthrown. Back then, the unmatched Immortal Monk King was known to have an Unbreakable Golden Body, able to directly face Shutuo and Anlan, these people, yet in the end, his golden body was still struck through.

That day, the Zhang Six Golden Body collapsed. Xumi Mountain thus fractured, the peaks disappearing, thus becoming a thing of the past.

That day, monk blood dyed the heavens, six dao weeping, the world in grief.

The past battle shocked the heaven and earth, with even supernatural beings sobbing. The ancient monk’s divine abilities were fully revealed, the country within the palm, buddha lives in the future, what imperishable monk, all of it was displayed, the world slaughtered to a scarlet red.

However, defeat was still defeat in the end. This place became ruins, becoming a relic of the past.

It was like a reincarnation. In the end, the day would come when there will be another great battle. The great confrontation will arrive, the world ravagedby flames, shouts of killing shaking the skies, those involved not limited to the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, but also from the worlds of the heavens.

There were legends stating that Xumi Mountain would return in the future, that the buddha would be reborn through flames from the ruins, participate in the great showdown, carry out a final battle.

“This place really is big. In the past, just how many people were there in this inheritance?” Cao Yusheng was speechless.

It had already been quite some time since they first stepped into this place, too many temple traces along the way. As a whole, this place really was just too vast and boundless.

“In the past, this was a buddha country, all of the residents monks. There were millions and millions of creatures, all of them believing in Immortal Monk King, consecrating the Zhang Six Golden Body in the temple.” The little dog sighed with admiration, its expression complicated, recalling some matters of the past.

“What can you remember?” Shi Hao asked.

The little dog smacked its lips, saying, “Sigh, in the past, Immortal Monk King had a Buddha Lotus growing in that Virtue Pond over there, the lotus seeds really were just too delicious.”

Shi Hao was completely speechless.

Cao Yusheng was also dumbstruck.

They originally thought that it was being sentimental, feeling some grief, but who would have thought that it was just missing the Buddha Lotus in that Virtue Pond, still thinking about it!

“This stupid dog, you really do have the heart of a wolf and lungs of a dog!” Cao Yusheng mumbled under his breath.

They arrived at Xumi Mountain. This was the main body, extremely tall and grand, but it was rumored to only be a broken mountain.

In Shi Hao and Cao Yusheng’s eyes, this was even more like a giant highland, just too vast. It was many times greater than many mountain bodies merged together.

In reality, it was rumored that because of the changes that were happening in heaven and earth, Immortal Monk King displaying his methods, this place rapidly shrunk. Otherwise, it would be even greater in size!

The broken mountain, or perhaps it could be called a highland, was gray-colored. There were rocks piled up in the surroundings, the precipice extremely great.

Nearby, plant life was sparse, only a bit of greenery. They were all ancient trees, mutated species that were incredibly upright and strong, winding about like old dragons here.

However, the broken mountaintop was instead green and lush, extremely dense like a green carpet. It was laid over the mountaintop, some strange flowers also growing on it, releasing their fragrance.

Even after many years passed, this place becoming ruins, it was still extraordinary.

Vaguely, they seemed to be able to hear scripture sounds, the chanting sounds faintly discernible, transmitting from the void. This was also precisely the reason why no one was willing to establish a sect here, because if they established a sect here, the occasional scripture sounds would distract them, easily sway them from their beliefs.

Ding ding dong dong…

Zither music could be heard, the sounds like those of a clear spring. They flowed along the limestone under the moonlight, scattering down the cliffs and onto green bamboo, clear and beautiful.

That place was like something out of a dream, immortal mist swirling about. There was a woman playing the zither, her appearance extremely beautiful, seated on a jade table. Her fingers seemed to be dancing, playing a beautiful song.

In the surroundings, there were hundreds and thousands of birds flying about, circling about, no lack of Luan Birds and other divine birds among them.

“Worthy of being Princess Yao Yue, this song has moved my dao heart, full of immortal charm, pure and free from vulgarity.” Someone said with a sigh of admiration.

The one who was playing the zither was precisely Princess Yao Yue from a long life imperial court. The zither music was beautiful, carrying great dao charm, affecting the surrounding people, all types of auspicious birds coming to enjoy themselves.

“Ten Crown King has come!”

Someone cried out in alarm, seeing a man approach from the void with powerful movements, heroic and imposing might, ascending the broken Xumi Mountain.

This was a heroic figure who had participated in Desolate Border’s great battle, someone who dared compete with the other side’s Emperor Clans, one of the past Prides of Heaven!

His appearance naturally triggered quite the commotion. Many people looked over, their attention drawn.

In the distance, Cao Yusheng and the others stopped, seeing a sign.

Bark! The little dog immediately bared its fangs, becoming completely upset.

“Who was the one who wrote this?” It glared out.

“Don’t provoke trouble.” Shi Hao stopped it.

Even from far away, they could see a sign, on it written: ‘Creatures of darkness and dogs not allowed inside’.

No wonder the little dog’s eyes widened, angered badly.

“Motherfu*ker... who dares look down on this great one?!”

Wang Da was captured in front of everyone, angering Wang Family. They didn’t know who that mysterious person was, but they knew that there was a little dog that intimidated even an Immortal Domain family.

However, later on, they learned that the dog was most likely bluffing, not having its past divine abilities.

Wang Family’s people were extremely vicious. This was most likely their work, because Wang Shi was one of the proposers of this distinguished meeting.

The little dog was furious, grinding its teeth there. If it wasn’t for Shi Hao holding it back, it might have directly screamed out and rushed over.

“Let’s take a look around first, don’t be in such a rush to cry out.” Shi Hao said, trying to appease it.

The little dog thought for a bit, feeling that this was reasonable. They should try to see what kind of movements these people had first.

Right now, a silver-haired little girl appeared, from the looks of it twelve or thirteen years of age, her complexion like fine jade, her face extremely fine and beautiful. Her silver long hair hung down to her waist, flickering with brilliance, ruby-like eyes extremely large and intelligent.

It was precisely the Lunar Jade Rabbit. She hugged a snow-white little qilin, also coming.

“A little rabbit!” The small dog’s eyes moved about. With a sou sound, white light flickered, turning into a little white rabbit, jolting its buttocks as it followed behind the Lunar Jade Rabbit.

“This damn horny dog!” Cao Yusheng was immediately annoyed. This little dog was trying to deceive his old friend.

“Wayaya, where did this little rabbit come from? It’s so cute!” The Lunar Jade Rabbit immediately threw away the qilin she was holding, picking up the ‘little dog’ on the ground.

“Are you praising yourself?” Shi Hao who was standing in the distance immediately became speechless. She was a rabbit herself!

The little qilin was still sleeping, but was thrown to the ground in the end, feeling extremely wronged.

The little dog didn’t feel great either, because when it was picked up, it was pinched and rubbed all over, and then its ears were twisted.

Bark! It immediately bared its fangs.

“Yi, why is your cry so… cute?”

The little dog almost vomited a mouthful of blood, its face becoming red. Just how old was it? Yet it was called cute! It almost immediately jumped up and ran.

“Hehe…” Cao Yusheng snickered.

They began to climb the broken Xumi Mountain.

In the distance, there was a beautiful figure, white clothes purer than snow, who was sipping on tea. She had beautiful long black hair, her skin like snow, bright eyes and white teeth, as if she was an exiled immortal.

It was precisely Heaven Mending Sect’s fairy, the recombined Qing Yi and Yue Chan.

There were many familiar people around them, for example, Great Xu Tuo, Little Sky King, Tuogu Yulong, and others.

Not long afterwards, the dual-pupiled Shi Yi, Exiled Immortal, and others came, drawing a lot of attention.

“They were the main force of the younger generation in the Desolate Border War, I wonder just how powerful they have become now!”

There were people discussing among themselves, feeling like these should be the most powerful youngsters of the present world.

Soon afterwards, there was a huge commotion raised. More people came, quite a few people getting up to welcome them.

“Wang Shi has come, Wang Family’s most powerful inheritor!”

“Of Wang Family’s Nine Dragons, the younger they are, the more powerful. Who would have thought that there would be a tenth dragon! He is but Immortal Wang’s child, rumored to have received great benefits from the great dao!”

Everyone immediately began to discuss among themselves. Many people got up to welcome him with smiles.
