Chapter 180: Entering Kunlun (2/2)
“Illusion?” Cheng Yu frowned and quickly reacted. He had stepped into a illusion array. Cheng Yu put forth a few law engravements and chanted a few incantations, allowing baffled hearts caused by the illusion array to sober up. Very quickly, the supposed daytime gradually turned back to night and Cheng Yu’s position had moved from the hilltop of the Kunlun Mountain Range to a mountain slope.
Cheng Yu observed his surroundings for a while. There was actually such a large restriction placed here that was extremely stable. Cheng Yu cast several law arts onto the restriction and only saw his law arts disappearing the moment it contacted the restriction.
Cheng Yu surveyed and guessed. Only an immortal level expert would be able to set up such a restriction. Cheng Yu circulated around this mountain and found out that not only was this restriction strong and stable, it was also very wide. At least it was not limited to only this mountain.
In Cheng Yu’s opinion, it was no doubt that this restriction should be the Cultivation World. Because, outside this restriction was surrounded by layers of illusion arrays. This was a method used frequently by cultivators. Since the commoners had no idea that the Cultivation World existed, they also hoped for them to not charge into the restriction randomly.
However, Cheng Yu believe that all this restriction would inevitably have a weak spot and that would be the gate to the Cultivation World. Otherwise, with such a wide restriction, who would be able to enter? Cheng Yu took out his flying sword once again. While flying around the outskirts of the restriction, he tried to look for the weak point.
However, Cheng Yu searched for hours and was still unable to pinpoint a single weak spot. Unknowingly, the day had already turned bright. The more Cheng Yu searched, the more apprehensive he got because he realized the width of this restriction was beyond his imagination. It seemed like this restriction was not placed by just any random immortal expert, but at least an upper-ranked immortal. Furthermore, it was not done by a person because the mountain was so vast.
Thinking about this, Cheng Yu became even more astonished. Could it be that there were upper-rank immortals in the Cultivation World? This was impossible, right?! After living for over a thousand years, Cheng Yu never once heard of any immortals that were not summoned to the Immortal World and could stay in the lower realms!
Strange! This was truly too strange! This world was not as simple as he thought it to be. It was even more complicated than his previous world. Cheng Yu was astonished, but at this very moment, it was more important to look for the gate to the Cultivation World. So, Cheng Yu used his flying sword and looked for it again.
After another two hours, Cheng Yu finally managed to spot a frail area of the restriction. Cheng Yu was elated. Finally, he had found the gate! The restriction here was a lot weaker than before. Cheng Yu brought forth a few law[1] arts and the restriction disappeared a short while later.
“Who is it?! You actually dared to selflessly charge into our Kunlun’s entrance?!” Cheng Yu had just passed through the restriction and entered when he heard a loud voice shouting. Cheng Yu took a look. It turned out that it was eight cultivators who were donning daoist uniforms. However, their cultivation was very low. They were all Qi Training Realm initial stage cultivators. When Cheng Yu heard their threatening speech, he did not get angry, but was happy instead.
Because for the sake of searching for the gate to the Cultivation World, Cheng Yu had already deviated from the Kunlun Mountain Range for about 100 kilometers. Cheng Yu was afraid that he had left Kunlun’s stronghold. Never had he expected that this would be the entrance to Kunlun. Isn’t this what they called, searching high and low, but the thing you sought for was just in front of you?
“Hello, Daoist friends, I am not trespassing and just wish to enter the Cultivation World. I searched for very long and was finally able to spot this place. Therefore, I plead for the few daoist friends here to take it as you saw nothing,” Cheng Yu took out a few Qi Gathering Pills and gave to them before saying politely.
Cheng Yu did not wish to invoke troubles everywhere he went. Even though the other party’s cultivation was low, he could not possibly just kill them because they saw him, right?
“So it’s like that. Since daoist friend is also a cultivator and wants to enter the Cultivation World, it wouldn’t be nice for us to hinder you. It’s just that this place is not far from Kunlun Sect. I hope daoist friend would not stay here too long. Otherwise, if it were to cause any misunderstanding, it will be very troublesome,” The few cultivators saw Cheng Yu taking out Qi Gathering Pills, so their eyes shone. The arrogance they displayed previous completely vanished and they immediately became extremely polite.
Actually, they were only ordinary disciples. Their cultivation was very bad and very rarely would they be able to receive pills to assist them in their cultivation. Each of them relied on their hard work to achieve their current cultivation. When they saw how magnamious Cheng Yu was, taking out five Qi Gathering Pills for each of them. They, as ordinary disciples, were only able to receive a bottle of low-grade Qi Gathering Pills from the sect.
Compared to Cheng Yu’s top-grade Qi Gathering Pills, even if they were disciples who were at Qi Training Realm late stage, they would at most get ten. This showed how precious this pill was to them.
“So it’s like that. Thank you, daoist friends,” Cheng Yu had no idea how precious the pills he had just given out were. However, even if he knew, he would not feel that it was a waste.
