Before Lin Chen could speak, Ji Ziyue suddenly shouted.
"Indeed! The legendary Humble Peak Immortal Technique is naturally prepared for me, the future peerless female immortal... ah, I mean, for an immortal!"
Lin Chen remained silent.
This narcissist actually stole his own lines.
On her shoulder, Qin Yao, transformed into a little white goose, chuckled softly.
The young man in white couldn't help but chuckle, clearly not taking their words seriously.
“You two are quite interesting. The Tai Xuan Grand Gathering is about to begin. Let’s hurry up and get in line.”
"Those who are not disciples of the Tai Xuan Sect, unless they are renowned geniuses, can only observe from afar outside the mountain gate."
"The clash between the Ji family's Eastern Wilderness Divine Body and the first successor of the Tai Xuan Sect is a moment that will haunt you for life if you cannot be there in person!"
The three chatted as they mingled into the crowd of people seeking apprenticeship.
The Tai Xuan Sect has an extremely high reputation, and countless cultivators want to become its disciples, so it's impossible for it to accept just anyone.
The most basic test is to cross a celestial gate; if one's aptitude is insufficient, one will be teleported back the instant one passes through.
With Lin Chen and Ji Ziyue's cultivation and aptitude, they naturally passed through the Immortal Gate with ease.
Upon entering, the young man in white headed straight for a magnificent main peak.
"Lin Chen, should we go find my seventh brother first?"
Ji Ziyue asked, having already sensed Ji Haoyue's aura from afar, but Lin Chen shook his head.
"No rush. Now that we're here, how can we not visit Zhuofeng?"
"Hehe, that's what I think too. The legendary Nine Secret Immortal Techniques must be waiting for this fairy to arrive!"
The two people and the goose continued on their way, the mountain path was overgrown with thorns and wild grass, resembling a desolate mountain.
"Zhuofeng has truly declined. Five hundred years ago, the master of this peak once fought against the Supreme Elder of Yaoguang Holy Land, and they both perished in the end."
Ji Ziyue sighed.
That was a truly important figure in the Eastern Wilderness, demonstrating the power of the Zhuofeng lineage, yet now it presents such a desolate scene.
Lin Chen remained silent, silently sensing the mountain peak.
When he first stepped in, he also felt that the place was extremely desolate and had completely fallen into ruin.
But Lin Chen knew that this main peak itself was the supreme scripture that inherited the riddle of the character "皆".
Moreover, he had previously studied the "Book of Origin of Heaven" and comprehended the great method of changing the world, which contained many records about mountains and terrain.
This peak blends seamlessly with nature and harmonizes with heaven and earth. According to the "Book of Origin," it is an extremely terrifying terrain with unfathomable power.
Chapter Fifty-Five: Merging with the Humble Peak! Li Ruoyu's Astonishment!
"As expected of a sacred mountain that has inherited one of the nine secrets, it truly has its unique features."
As Lin Chen walked past a dilapidated palace, he couldn't help but sigh.
Upon hearing this, both Ji Ziyue and Qin Yao were somewhat bewildered.
What makes it unique?
What makes it unique?
If you're looking for something special, then yes, it is.
Of the 108 main peaks, only this Zhuofeng is shorter than the side peaks.
The desolate and dilapidated landscape is a stark contrast to the other 107 peaks that are shrouded in a mystical aura.
Judging from Lin Chen's tone, he was clearly praising Zhuofeng's extraordinary abilities, which was really hard to understand.
Just then, a hunched, frail old man emerged from the dilapidated hall next to him.
"What's so special about it? The heritage is gone, no one wants to come here, leaving only desolation."
The old man's eyes were cloudy. He sighed and then asked, "Are you here for a test? Five hundred years have passed, and the tradition here has long been severed. I advise you not to waste your time here and to seek another peak."
Lin Chen looked at the old man and immediately guessed his identity, since he was the only disciple in the entire Zhuofeng.
"We are not afraid; we have come for the Nine Secrets!"
Ji Ziyue said.
She had heard the legend of the Nine Secrets since she was a child and had always longed to visit it.
Although this Zhuofeng Peak was much more dilapidated than she had imagined, Ji Ziyue had never come here with the intention of joining the Tai Xuan Sect, and had no interest in the other main peaks at all.
Even at its most prosperous peak, could the inherited scriptures of the Ji family surpass those of the Great Emperor?
Only the legendary Nine Secrets, comparable to immortal arts, could stir her emotions.
Ji Ziyue smiled innocently and brightly, and stepped forward to help the old man.
Seeing that Ji Ziyue's purpose was so straightforward and undisguised, the old man was not annoyed, but instead nodded with a smile.
"Young people, you have ambition. I hope you can gain something from this place."
Ji Ziyue helped the old man as the group slowly made their way up the mountain.
Lin Chen recalled the contents of the "Origin Book" in his mind and compared them with the terrain of Zhuofeng.
With a physical object to correspond to, the understanding becomes extremely quick.
As its name suggests, Zhuofeng has neither palaces suspended in the clouds nor majestic grandeur.
It is very ordinary, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it is desolate, and it has nothing to do with a fairyland.
"Great perfection seems imperfect, great fullness seems empty, great skill seems clumsy... What is called ordinary is just a superficial appearance, returning to simplicity is the essence."
Lin Chen remained silent throughout the journey, using the "Source Heaven Book" as a foundation to quietly comprehend the profound mysteries hidden within the Humble Peak.
He activated the Heaven and Earth Transformation Technique, gradually merging his aura with the entire Zhuofeng Peak, as if he were to become one with it.
Gradually, the once vigorous blood and energy begin to wither, as if undergoing a transformation from prosperity to decline.
The traces of the Dao were emerging between heaven and earth. Lin Chen tried to capture them, but found that something was missing.
"A clumsy bow?"
Lin Chen murmured to himself.
"Ok?"
The old man, who was being supported by Ji Ziyue, seemed to sense something and turned to look at Lin Chen.
Suddenly, a glint of light flashed in his lifeless eyes.
Surprise, confusion, astonishment...
"Quack quack—"
On an ancient tree not far away, several crows were cawing, their calls hoarse and unpleasant.
Then it flapped its wings and circled around Lin Chen.
"Where did all these crows come from? Lin Chen, are you in really bad luck?"
Ji Ziyue teased.
Seeing Lin Chen being harassed by such a flock of crows was quite amusing.
Lin Chen opened his eyes and, realizing that Zhuofeng was flawed, stopped making pointless attempts.
Unexpectedly, this realization would attract the divine beings conceived within my clumsy bow—these are the crows.
Lin Chen joked, "It's definitely not my fault. Since they're all birds, they must have been attracted by Fairy Qin."
"After all, such a beautiful white goose is rarely seen in the wilderness, how could these crows not be excited?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp pain shot through his neck.
"Hey! Fairy Qin, why are you pecking at me? You're so big, so white, and you're a goose, am I wrong?"
"Are you talking about the goose? You filthy scoundrel!"
"Fairy Qin, you've changed. You were so reasonable before. Have you been corrupted by Ziyue?"
……
Zhuofeng is not high, and the three people and one goose quickly reached the summit.
Just then, seven or eight figures flew by in the sky, passing by this place by chance.
Seeing that no new disciples had joined Zhuofeng for many years, the new faces that appeared today aroused their curiosity, and they all descended.
"The youth gathering in the southern region of the Eastern Wilderness has really attracted all sorts of strange and monstrous people. Even someone from Zhuofeng wants to join."
"I definitely don't have the qualifications. Other main peaks wouldn't consider me, so I have no choice but to come here to be tested."
"What a joke! What kind of test could Zhuofeng possibly have? It's good enough if there are any newcomers. Do you expect anyone to actually climb the Ninth Heavenly Ladder?"
"However, Zhuofeng is still one of the 108 main peaks. Today, many young and handsome people from the Southern Region have gathered here. Senior Uncle Li should still bring out the Ninth-Rank Heavenly Ladder to test them. Don't lose face for my Tai Xuan Sect."
