511 The Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty & Splendid Landscape Map (1/2)
The Tomb-sweeping Day was a good time to visit the graves to honor the dead. But now, under Greensword Mountain, no one was concerned about it anymore. Everyone had only one thing in their mind: the Evil Fire Kylin.
The Evil Fire Kylin was a Primordial Fierce Beast and also an auspicious beast in antiquity times. Every part of its body was a treasure, but capturing it was merely a dream. A little bit of its essence and blood was enough to help the better part of the martial arts practitioners here to break through their bottlenecks. Legend had it that its essence and blood enabled people to obtain an amazing ability. Just because of these rumors, more and more people gathered under Greensword Mountain. Many people always had the mindset that they would be the protagonists in this world and would have some lucky chances. So they would never miss such an opportunity. But they hadn't expected that there were just too many looters for a limited wealth, and not everyone was the protagonist in such an event. Most people chose to ignore this fact because of greed and came here for acquiring benefits. However, it turned out to be what it was now.
These days, these people kept searching for the Kylin in some secret places on the mountain. In the beginning, there were even some conflicts between them and the people from the Redflame School. But now, to their surprise, they found out that the people from that school were all gone overnight. There was not even a soul in the headquarters of this school. After the initial surprise, they disregarded all this. Since they had no place to live, some people with good strength occupied the headquarters of this school and lived there, thinking of themselves as the master there.
At this moment, Greensword Mountain had already fallen into inexplicable chaos and anxiety.
The sun was shining brightly today, and the sky was cloudless. As usual, a group of Jianghu people climbed mountain after mountain and descended fire vein after fire vein. When they were desperately searching for the Kylin, the sky suddenly darkened. Those who had entered the fire vein didn't know what was going on outside, but those who were searching for the Kylin on the mountain saw it clearly. The originally cloudless sky darkened over their heads. And then a circular cyan light curtain fell from the sky. These martial arts practitioners were just nobodies, so how could they figure out what the light curtain was? Before they could figure it out, the light curtain fell onto Greensword Mountain. The downfall of it changed heaven and earth.
The entire Greensword Mountain disappeared without a trace.
”What's going on?”
”What happened?”
”What was that? What was that thing that fell from the sky?”
”Look! Guys, be quick! The mountain, the mountain disappeared. Greensword Mountain disappeared!”
”How is that possible? How did the mountain...!”
”No way! Am I dreaming? Am I seeing ghosts? How could Greensword Mountain disappear?”
There were too many martial arts practitioners gathering under Greensword Mountain. Only those who were powerful enough were qualified to go up the mountain and enter the fire vein. And those who were weak could just act as onlookers and didn't go up the mountain. They were just waiting for the news under the mountain. Now, they were secretly glad that they had not ventured to go up the mountain. Otherwise, it would be too late for them to regret. Currently, they were in a state of shock and could not believe what had happened in front of them. Looking ahead, there was a huge mountain a moment ago, but it had already disappeared without a trace. Most people couldn't help but pinch their flesh to make sure that they were not dreaming.
Not resigning himself to the unpleasant situation, the master of the Redflame School, who had been peeping down on the mountain these days, swallowed a few mouthfuls of water. His heart was still fluttering with fear. Secretly, he thought that if it wasn't for his Patriarch gaining insight into this matter and evacuated the people of the Redflame School earlier, he wouldn't know what would have happened to himself and his men.
”It's not too late to feel frightened now!”
”Teacher, who did this? How mighty he is!” The master of the Redflame School was shocked and then turned around, hurriedly asking Raging Fire Ancestor, who was standing behind him and looking in the direction of Greensword Mountain helplessly.
”It's nothing but a Pure Yang Treasure, the Splendid Landscape Map of the Youxian Temple. Haha, I never expected that the Youxian Temple in the Three Western Regions would act first!”
”Pure Yang Treasure, Youxian Temple, and Splendid Landscape Map?” The master of the Redflame School felt confused upon hearing these words. However, Raging Fire Ancestor didn't plan to explain it to him; instead, he rolled up his robe sleeves and covered the master's body with them, saying, ”Let's go. The real battle is about to begin and don't get in the way here, lest you suffer great pain and cry!”
