Chapter 220 The Giant Hand Reaching Out from the Undying Mountain!

The Central Region is full of winding mountain ranges, so finding a place to cultivate in seclusion is not difficult at all; it can be described as effortless.

After leaving Xinxi City, Qi Zhe traveled hundreds of thousands of miles south and discovered a primeval forest along the way, where he stopped to rest.

This primeval forest is teeming with monsters, some of which are powerful beast kings with the cultivation of a half-step great being. In other places, they would have long been a scourge to the region.

However, these powerful beast kings are usually very quiet. Even when thousands of demonic beasts gather under their command, they never fight each other easily and dare not make any big noise.

All of this is because the deepest part of the primeval forest is a continuous mountain range, with each peak majestic and towering, like hundreds or thousands of sharp swords piercing the sky.

"Mountain of the Immortal."

The monks living nearby called this mountain range the Undying Mountain, knowing it was a forbidden zone for life, and they would not even set foot in this primeval forest normally.

The deathly silence in the Undying Mountain seemed contagious, making the entire primeval forest quiet, and the oppressive and terrifying atmosphere sent chills down one's spine.

Qi Zhe was naturally aware of all this, but he still stayed and decided to cultivate in seclusion near the Undying Mountain to avoid being disturbed.

However, discussions about him have not stopped, and many people are still waiting for news of Qi Zhe's death.

Surprisingly, even though the Great Sage Hun Tuo had been born, the ancient clans remained silent, and no one went to kill Qi Zhe.

Then news spread that even the great sage of the ancient clans could not predict Qi Zhe's whereabouts, which surprised many people.

"Even the Great Sage of the Primordial Era couldn't figure it out?" Many powerful forces in the Eastern Wilderness were shocked when they heard the news, but they quickly let go of the past grievances.

They had tried to intercept and kill Qi Zhe but had never succeeded. Now, they were comforted and could no longer give up hope.

"He possesses a rare treasure, and we were unable to deal with him in the past, but now it seems he will not die, and the ancient clans cannot harm him either."

Some concluded that if the situation were true, Qi Zhe would continue to live a carefree life, and no one in the entire Eastern Wilderness could touch him.

The ancient race was naturally furious about this. Qi Zhe killed many ancient creatures on two separate occasions, which angered at least twenty royal families.

Now that the Great Sage Hun Tuo has been born, he cannot predict Qi Zhe's whereabouts. Therefore, it is no longer possible to capture him, and he will be able to overcome his weakness.

"I don't think he'll emerge until he reaches the Great Power realm." Some of the lineages expressed their regret, having guessed Qi Zhe's plan.

As the days passed, Qi Zhe disappeared, and many ancient clan experts gave up and returned to their ancestral lands.

A month later, big news spread in the Northern Region: the Jiang family cultivators had mobilized all their forces to collect a massive amount of source energy, which had helped Ye Fan, the Holy Body, break the curse.

People were unaware of the details and were utterly horrified, shouting that the Ancient Holy Body had reappeared in the world and that it should restore its former glory.

"The Holy Body has broken the curse, and a being capable of rivaling the ancient emperors is about to reappear in the mortal realm!" a human expert exclaimed, finding it unbelievable.

The Holy Body lineage has left behind countless legends in the Eastern Wilderness, earning a formidable reputation that even ancient clans are astonished upon hearing.

However, some experts from various races were quite dismissive, believing that the Holy Body was not worth mentioning and whether it could regain its former glory was still unknown.

The following news also drew the world's attention: unfortunate news came from within the Jiang family that the Holy Body had failed to truly break the curse and was about to die.

"When the Holy Body broke through, a heavenly tribulation descended, and the innate Great Dao Divine Diagram suppressed it from the sky. If it weren't for the intervention of the God King, the Holy Body would have died at that time!"

When the news spread, people were astonished by the difficulty of the Holy Body breaking the curse. Even the God King Jiang Taixu was injured as a result, and even then, he did not succeed completely.

"Alas," many human cultivators sighed, and then stopped discussing it.

The Eastern Wilderness fell silent, with many ancient clans eagerly awaiting Qi Zhe's next appearance, but the wait turned into a long one. During this time, Ye Fan recovered from his injuries and rose to prominence, and the prodigies of various clans began to fight fiercely. Hua Yunfei, Ji Haoyue, and the Holy Son of Yaoguang emerged one after another, and even Jiang Yifei was not to be outdone.

Zixia, the innate Dao embryo of the Purple Mansion Holy Land, was among them, and the Holy Maiden of Yaochi had also made several moves. All these scenes seemed to be prophesying something.

During this period, even the ancient clans' prodigies continued to emerge, beginning to write their own imperial paths, such as Zi Tiandu and the Yuan Empress's descendant Yuan Gudu, who have already appeared in the world.

"The great era has begun!" All signs indicate that the great era has begun.

The Qishi Mansion in Zhongzhou was thus fully opened, and many geniuses from the five major domains began to gather there, with many people rushing to the place.

In this magnificent era, some have already made their names known, such as Qi Zhe, who is famous throughout the five domains, infuriating the ancient clans.

Others, like Ye Fan, who had fallen far behind, began to catch up with great effort, defeating the holy sons one after another, who subsequently perished at his hands.

Both the human and ancient races have seen the emergence of many prodigies, one generation after another, until even ancient princes began to appear.

The Holy Prince, who had been silent in the Holy City Stone Archway for a long time, suddenly emerged. He possessed great combat power from the moment he was born, which greatly surprised many ancient clans.

Six months later, another stone egg unexpectedly appeared, startling the Immortal Queen of Purple Mountain, who forcibly rushed out and took the stone egg, calling it a descendant of the Heavenly Queen.

In this vast world, Qi Zhe was nowhere to be seen. No one knew where he was hiding, but many people knew that if something happened to him, it would surely shock the world.

As time passed, after a year of seclusion, Qi Zhe finally emerged from seclusion again, this time about to undergo his tribulation.

"I climbed the steps, and finally I have this day." Qi Zhe left the primeval forest with strange steps, his face filled with inexplicable emotion.

During the year that Qi Zhe was in seclusion, it took him nine months to break through the last two steps of Sendai First Heaven, and now he is undergoing another tribulation.

He completed the cultivation of the first level of heaven, and even transformed his divine soul once during this period, completing the cultivation of strengthening his divine consciousness.

Qi Zhe also knew that this tribulation was going to be very big, and he had a premonition that it would be unprecedented and that he would see all sorts of incredible sights.

In addition, the scale of this calamity will be enormous, potentially affecting tens of thousands of miles of land, and it is almost certain that it will be discovered.

This also gave Qi Zhe a headache. There might not be a 100,000-mile uninhabited area in the Eastern Wilderness where he could undergo tribulation, and going out into the starry sky to undergo tribulation would be too conspicuous.

"The East China Sea is an option," Qi Zhe suddenly thought of overseas, knowing that it was a vast and sparsely populated place where the probability of being discovered was not high.

With a "whoosh," Qi Zhe no longer hesitated and directly steered the Longevity Dao Temple into the void, beginning to traverse the void amidst the boundless Dao patterns.

"Chucky!"

As turbulent currents of the void surged, the Changsheng Taoist Temple traversed the void at high speed, with various strange scenes flashing before Qi Zhe's eyes.

"boom!!!"

With a loud bang, a gigantic hand suddenly reached into the void and grabbed towards the Changsheng Taoist Temple, startling Qi Zhe into exclaiming, "No way?"

The large hand was speckled with blood and covered with strange, intricate patterns. The wisps of imperial power emanating from it made the Changsheng Dao Temple sway beneath its grasp.

The void was shattered by the giant hand, revealing the origin of the opponent. A headless, tall figure sat on a stone horse, coldly attacking Qi Zhe.

"Why did you attack me? I have never ventured deep into the Undying Mountain!" Qi Zhe was somewhat angry, guessing that the headless knight was after the Longevity Temple.

It's a transitional phase; we want to speed things up but can't seem to get going. There are some things that need to be clarified.
