Chapter 2347: Canonization Mountain (2/2)
“Where are we?” whispered Lin Feng. It was a strange world. He couldn’t see clearly.
“Celestial Dao is dimly discernible,” whispered Saint Emperor Freeze. He had been a Saint Emperor for such a long time, he really wanted to become a Saint.
Suddenly, more figures appeared behind them. Lin Feng was startled; many cultivators were walking in there alone, and they weren’t from the Shrines. They knew they couldn’t steal the Saint Luck from the Shrines, so they had followed Saint Emperor Freeze.
“What a strange place,” murmured everybody. A terrifying strength appeared and made everybody shake. Clouds appeared and a strong wind started blowing. A mountain became visible. The crowd looked at the mountain. It seemed extremely close and extremely far away at the same time.
A figure flew up; he wanted to get closer to the mountain, but it looked enigmatic and unfathomable; it was extremely high and it seemed impossible to get close.
“This place is called the Canonization Area, so that mountain could be the Canonization Mountain,” said someone. Everybody looked at the mountain as if it were a holy mountain, a holy creature. It seemed so close and yet so far…
The crowd saw a demon fork appear in Chu Chun Qiu’s hand, and he suddenly threw it at the mountain. The demon fork crashed into the mountain, people’s hearts pounded. Was he insane? And why could his fork reach the mountain, and they couldn’t?
Boom boom boom! A terrifying Celestial Dao oppressed the atmosphere. People couldn’t compete with it.
“That kind of strength!” Lin Feng frowned and looked at Chu Chun Qiu. Was Chu Chun Qiu the same as he used to be? Or had he changed after the Supreme Ancient Pit of Hell?
“Celestial Dao deceives people,” said Chu Chun Qiu. He released Demon Qi and absorbed the vitality of the area. He slowly walked forwards, moving farther and farther from the crowd. When he stopped, the crowd realized he was at the foot of the mountain.
“How come he managed to get there?” the crowd frowned. Lin Feng was astonished too. Nobody could get close to the mountain but Chu Chun Qiu could. Did it mean that he was going to become a Saint? and what did “Celestial Dao deceives people” mean?
Lin Feng’s figure flickered, he moved towards the mountain too. However, he realized he couldn’t get close. Lin Feng wondered whether it existed for real or not.
Maybe it’s just an illusion, a mirage. But why did Chu Chun Qiu manage to reach it?, thought Lin Feng. He continued walking forwards, but couldn’t get close to it. The distance between him and the mountain remained the same.
Some strong cultivators released empty space strength and tried, but they failed too.
It’s fake? Maybe it’s a mixture of truth and falsehood?, thought Lin Feng with a sudden smile. He regained his calm. He didn’t try to walk towards the mountain anymore. However, his figure became blurry and he disappeared from their field of vision. After a millisecond, Lin Feng reappeared at the foot of the mountain. Lin Feng and Chu Chun Qiu then suddenly appeared in another area.
“What’s going on?” the crowd was astonished, dumbstruck, those two people had reached the mountain and then they had disappeared all of a sudden?
When Saint Emperor Freeze saw that, he started shaking with emotion. “I see! Transcend worldliness and attain holiness! I was too stubborn all those years, and it had the opposite effect! Actually, it’s just one step!”
Saint Emperor Freeze took a step forwards and disappeared. He arrived in front of the mountain, too. The crowd was astonished; Saint Emperor Freeze had understood something?
————
At that moment, in the outside world, there was a great battle going on. Many people who were alone and didn’t belong to Shrines died. Even some members of the Shrines died.
The Fire Shrine obtained one Saint Luck entity.
The Fortune Shrine and the Earth Shrine also obtained a Saint Luck entity and left the battlefield. They weren’t greedy, and didn’t try to obtain more.
Some people who were hopeless did like Lin Feng and the others and entered the vortex.
