Chapter 44 Henglong Mountain



Taiwei Mountain, Wujianping.

A graceful figure in white faced the bright moonlight, brandishing a sword and dancing, her sleeves fluttering. She moved like a lotus, as light as a swallow, but her body was as fast as lightning when she was retreating, and her moves were fierce. However, her posture was extremely beautiful, as graceful as a butterfly, as ethereal as smoke, like an elf under the moon, or a fairy in a painting. When she jumped up, it seemed as if she was going to soar into the sky and head straight for the bright moon on the horizon.

Not long after, a set of sword techniques was finished, and the figure was about to swing the sword again, but heard a cold voice saying: "Junior sister, your heart is in turmoil."

The graceful figure sheathed the sword, bowed to the person who spoke and said, "Master Sister."

These two people are none other than the three disciples of the sect, Han Biyun and Lu Qingyuan.

Han Biyun looked at Lu Qingyuan, who had a calm expression, and sighed, saying, "Junior sister, you should have heard about the second branch, right?"

Lu Qingyuan nodded silently.

"So what do you want to say?"

After a long silence, Lu Qingyuan shook his head.

Han Biyun laughed, "Junior sister, everyone in the sect says that you have a cold personality and keep people at a distance, but little do they know that your thoughts are actually the easiest to guess. If I'm not mistaken, you actually want to go down the mountain with Erzhi to look for Senior Brother Feng, right?"

Although Feng Shao has left the sect, Han Biyun still habitually calls him "Senior Brother Feng" when mentioning him.

Lu Qingyuan's face flushed slightly, but she said stiffly: "Junior sister doesn't have this idea."

Han Biyun looked at Lu Qingyuan for a long time, until Lu Qingyuan could not help but turn her head away. Then she sighed and said, "Junior sister, why do you have to be so stubborn in front of me? I know that you had some misunderstandings with Senior Brother Feng because of Ye Chen's matter some time ago. But Senior Brother Feng is kind and generous. Since he can protect you from advancing to the Golden Core Realm, you will no longer take those misunderstandings to heart."

Ever since she learned that the person who stole the Bifang Flame that day was Ye Chen, Han Biyun no longer considered him her junior brother. In her opinion, since Ye Chen could attack her, it proved that in Ye Chen's heart, he did not regard her as his senior sister at all. If that was the case, why should she take him to heart?

So when she addressed him, she called him by his name.

Hearing this, Lu Qingyuan pursed her lips and whispered, "Big Sister, I...I feel that our three branches are really ashamed of Senior Brother Feng."

Han Biyun smiled and said, "You said that because you don't understand Brother Feng at all. Brother Feng is a man who always distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. He will not vent his anger on the three branches because of Ye Chen's matter, and he will not disown us brothers and sisters because of this."

Lu Qingyuan couldn't help but ask: "Big Sister, didn't Senior Brother Feng leave the sect? If that's the case, how could he..."

"You mean, since Senior Brother Feng has left the sect, he won't recognize us brothers and sisters anymore, right? Then I can only say that you are wrong." Han Biyun looked at the bright moon in the sky and said calmly, "I have been on the mountain for twenty-eight years, and I have known Senior Brother Feng for twenty-eight years. In these twenty-eight years, I have seen Senior Brother Feng angry, but he has never been angry because he was dissatisfied with his brothers and sisters. In fact, he has always regarded us as his brothers and sisters, and has always tolerated us with his broad mind. So whether it is for him or for us, this bond is unbreakable."

At this point, Han Biyun took a deep breath and said, "The second group of disciples have already headed for Liyang City. If you go there now, you can still catch up with them."

Lu Qingyuan couldn't help but be startled: "Senior Sister..."

Han Biyun smiled and said, "I am the eldest disciple of Master, so I will not go with you. As for you, I will report to Master and say that you have just entered the Golden Core Realm and need to travel down the mountain to broaden your horizons and seek opportunities for further improvement. This way, it will be more reasonable for the headmaster."

Lu Qingyuan looked hesitant and couldn't help asking, "But Senior Sister, I angered Senior Brother Feng some time ago because I protected Ye Chen. And Senior Brother Feng's departure from the sect was also due to Ye Chen. I... I really don't have the face to face Senior Brother Feng."

"Then go and apologize to Senior Brother Feng. Apologize in front of Senior Brother Feng. If you are unwilling to take this step, then your path of cultivation will probably end here!" Han Biyun said seriously, "So even if it's for your own sake, you must go find him."

Lu Qingyuan pondered for a while, then suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "Senior Sister is right. If I can't resolve this knot in my heart, I won't be able to continue practicing!"

She looked up at Han Biyun, bowed, and said, "Then Junior Sister will go now!"

Han Biyun nodded: "Be careful on the road! If you meet Senior Brother Feng, say hello to him for me."

"yes!"

Lu Qingyuan no longer hesitated, drew out his sword, and flew away.

Han Biyun stood there, watching Lu Qingyuan's figure gradually disappearing into the distance, her expression looking somewhat melancholy.

After a while, she suddenly laughed at herself and murmured, "He's gone, what are you still thinking about?"

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving only a lonely figure, feeling quite lonely.

Just like Mount Taiwei today.

——————————

After nearly a month of flying on the sword, Feng Shao finally saw a vast expanse of majestic mountains in the distance.

Henglong Mountain, located at the border of Zhongzhou and Dongzhou, runs from north to south, stretching for more than 6,000 miles, is a famous mountain in the Upper Domain. It is filled with mist, like a fairyland, but inside it are monsters and thorns everywhere. If a cultivator walks into it, he will risk being devoured by monsters. As for mortals, they regard this place as a forbidden area.

It is said that Henglong Mountain was formed after the fall of an ancient giant dragon, but there are many errors in the rumor, and no one knows whether it is true or not. After all, real dragons have not appeared in the world for many years, and no one knows if there are any real dragons in the world. Moreover, how can a dragon be so big? Therefore, most people scoff at this rumor.

Although the rumors about Henglong Mountain were false, the danger was real. But the greatest danger did not come from monsters, but from a forbidden area hidden in it.

Three Lives Tower.

According to legend, the Sansheng Tower is a miracle left by the immortals in the upper domain, which controls the marriage and reincarnation of the world. Many people have longed for the Sansheng Tower and have been looking for it. Many of them have actually found the Sansheng Tower. However, almost everyone who entered the Sansheng Tower failed to come out. The only person who was recorded to have escaped unscathed was Xihe Palace Master, one of the three palace masters of Qiankun Palace, a major cultivation sect that flourished thousands of years ago.

The real name of the Xihe Palace Master is not Xihe, but her real name is no longer traceable. It is rumored that the Xihe Palace Master found the supreme opportunity in the Sansheng Tower, and then established the Qiankun Palace. But some people say that the fundamental reason why the Qiankun Palace was short-lived was that the Xihe Palace Master entered the Sansheng Tower and angered the gods in the upper realm, which led to the divine punishment. Some people even say that the Xihe Palace Master is not from this world, but from the upper realm. He took over the body of a cultivator who accidentally entered the Sansheng Tower, and then reincarnated into this world. And the Qiankun Palace was actually taken away from this world by this great man from the upper realm. As for where the Qiankun Palace went later, no one knows.

However, Feng Shao didn't care much about these rumors. His real purpose in coming here was to reshape his own qualifications.

Reshaping one's aptitude, to most people, is simply like a fairy tale. Aptitude is like gender, it is determined at birth, and no one has ever heard of aptitude being reshaped. Therefore, there has always been a saying in the world of cultivation that "one life is reincarnated, and fate is determined by heaven", which means that when you are born, the upper limit of your cultivation is already determined.

Originally Feng Shao also thought that it was impossible to reshape one's qualifications. It was not until he cultivated the "Qiankun Treasure Book" to the innate realm and activated the subsequent chapters that he realized that there was such a heaven-defying method in this world.

However, the reshaping of qualifications must be done in the innate realm, and it cannot be done earlier or later. Not only that, the reshaping of qualifications also requires the help of the great power of the Three Life Pagoda to communicate past and present lives in order to achieve it.

In other words, the so-called reshaping of talent is actually to integrate the talent you once had in your previous life into the blood of this life. After thousands of reincarnations, there will always be a few times when you will be lucky enough to obtain a talent that defies the heavens. Just having a talent that defies the heavens does not mean that you can achieve the right result. The vast majority of people with extraordinary talents are actually buried among ordinary people throughout their lives, and they have not been able to embark on the path of cultivation until the day they die.

Moreover, if one can truly achieve the right result through cultivation, there will be no afterlife unless one enters reincarnation. Either one lives as long as the heaven and earth and does not enter reincarnation, or one dies and disappears into ashes. It is for this reason that the qualifications brought in by communicating with the previous life are almost never activated.

Feng Shao was actually a little bit nervous when he came here. He was not nervous because of the mystery of the Three Life Pagoda, but because he remembered his true life experience.

He was a time traveler and not from this world, so could he still communicate with his past life in the Three Lives Tower? Even if he could, where was his past life? Was it in the world he originally lived in, or in this world?

But even so, he still wanted to take this gamble. He felt that the fundamental reason why he could travel to this world might be hidden in this Sansheng Tower. Even if it was just to figure out the mystery of himself, he had to come here.

After flying over Henglong Mountain, he activated the Tianhua Jade Slip in his body. A layer of light blue light enveloped his pupils. Then, he saw a purple column of air standing far between heaven and earth, reaching the sky and the earth, and straight into the clouds.

Feng Shao couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth into a smile.

There is the San Sheng Tower!
