Chapter 826: The Peak of the Heavenly Mountain
‘The Piercing Sky Beast King is here on the Heavenly Mountain?’ This was unexpected news to Huang Xiaolong. The Piercing Sky Beast King, as well as other characters of his caliber; Ancestor Mountaingoat, Green Dragon Beast King, and Ancestor Bifang.
Did news about the White Tiger Divine Fire leak out? Huang Xiaolong shook his head in denial the next second, there couldn't be such coincidence.
“What do you guys think, is it because of the Heavenly God’s godhead fragment?”
“The godhead fragment, that might be it. Not long ago, the fragment that the White Tiger Institute auctioned off was found here by Wan Zhengxing. There’s bound to be more than one fragment on the whole Heavenly Mountain!”
“That Huang Xiaolong is a true-blue prodigal son, actually spending 5 trillion to buy a Heavenly God’s godhead fragment!”
“That’s called domineering!”
Voices sounded from the same table.
Huang Xiaolong’s movements froze for a second at their words, then he smiled wryly. Prodigal son? Domineering? In all truthfulness, he really did not think of other things when he was bidding for the godhead fragment.
Listening to these people, Huang Xiaolong fell into contemplation… Could it be, the Piercing Sky Beast King, Ancestor Mountaingoat, and the others really came here in search of a piece of the Heavenly God’s godhead?
But Huang Xiaolong soon threw the matter to the back of his mind. Even if there were other godhead fragments on the Heavenly God Mountain, he had no interest in them. His main purpose in coming here was for the White Tiger Divine Fire.
Time flowed by and soon two months had passed.
During this period, Huang Xiaolong stayed in Lulong City to gather information related to the Heavenly Mountain, especially those related to its peak. Although this kind of information was less than desirable, with the magic of his top divine grade spirit stones, he managed to hear some useful things.
For example, Huang Xiaolong found out that the Heavenly Mountain’s peak was shrouded by dense layers of mist-like white gas throughout the year, and only Highgod Realm masters were capable of passing through it. Therefore, in order to reach the peak, one needed to have strength comparable to a Highgod Realm master, unlike what Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi said the past, that only Highgod Realm masters could reach the peak of the mountain.
No doubt, the closer one got to the peak, the heavier the pressure from this white gas became. From the information Huang Xiaolong heard, a late-First Order Highgod Realm master could barely make it further than a thousand zhang through the white gas.
An early Second Order Highgod Realm master was able to go two thousand zhang, mid-Second Order as far as three thousand zhang, a late-Second Order four thousand zhang, and a peak late-Second Order Highgod Realm master could reach five thousand zhang at most. No one knew how far a Third Order Highgod Realm master could go.
In these two months, other than searching for information related to the Heavenly Mountain’s peak, Huang Xiaolong set aside time to refine Spring Autumn Hundred Life Divine Pellets.
On this day, Huang Xiaolong left Lulong City, heading to the Heavenly Mountain. With his speed, it didn’t take him long to reach halfway up the mountain. Along the way, before any demonic beasts could assault him, they died from Huang Xiaolong’s soul attack.
With the current level of his soul force, he could instantly kill a Second Order Highgod Realm and below with a tangible soul attack, not to mention these God Realm demonic beasts.
Halfway up the mountain, Huang Xiaolong’s vigilance rose as he continued up cautiously. Although he wasn’t afraid of any demonic beast attacks, he’d rather not get trapped by one of the many formations around the Heavenly Mountain.
Slightly over a month later, he finally arrived safely close to the summit after being on his nerves the entire time and saw the said white gas enshrouding the Heavenly Mountain’s peak.
Watching this dense white gas, Huang Xiaolong’s brows were locked together with grimness.
In the four galaxies’ long history, the masters who climbed to the Heavenly Mountain’s peak had all fallen, hence, there was more to this white gas than simple gravitational force.
