Chapter 279: Lost Swamp Of Certain Death
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
The Lost Sky Ruins bordered the Fallen Ruins, and to Zhen Mo Continent’s cultivators, there weren’t many treasures in the Lost Sky Ruins.
Despite that, it was still very dangerous inside the Lost Sky Ruins, and even True God Stage experts could perish inside.
Thus, for cultivators that hid at Fallen Ruins, once someone came looking for them, they would flee into the Lost Sky Ruins. Not many would give chase in there.
At this moment, in a remote tea house of Fallen Ruins’ market, two men and one woman sat at the corner.
”Brother Qi, I heard that it’s more dangerous to go to Lost Sky Ruins than the Star Wars Battlefield. At least there’s a chance of survival in the Star Wars. Going to the Lost Sky Ruins means certain death.” The woman broke the silence. She had slightly darker skin, two big and bright eyes, and a set of thick eyebrows, which gave her a heroic look.
The man she called brother did not appear ordinary either, as his face was rather bronzed. In his eyes there was a tinge of loneliness, and he had an uncaring look on his face.
”Brother Qi, there’s no point in wasting away as you are now. I feel that what Rong He said makes sense. With our level of cultivation, certain death awaits us in the Lost Sky Ruins.” Seeing that brother did not speak, the other short, lean man lamented.
Brother Qi finally regained his senses, and he sighed, ”Sister Rong, Xingteng, I’ve dragged the both of you down this time.”
The lean man named Xingteng quickly waved it off, ”Brother Qi, don’t speak as though as we are not family. Now that we have come this far, why don’t we think about how we can hide from the Jing Clan.”
After hearing that, Brother Qi got his act together, ”The Jing Clan is strong, so we have no choice but to go to the Lost Sky Ruins. I heard that we can reach the Lost Continent through the Lost Sky Ruins. As long as we do that, we will be able to set up a life for ourselves. As long as we can reach the Lost Continent, I, Pang Qi, pledge that I will bring you guys back to Zhen Mo.”
Xingteng sighed, and said, ”Brother Qi, it’s not that we want to discourage you, but this is just a far fetched dream with our current cultivation levels. Even if we have extremely good luck and manage to pass through the Lost Sky Ruins, what can we do in Lost Continent? I heard that the cultivation culture of Lost Sky Ruins is very backwards, and Star King Mountain even brought a batch of genius cultivators from there back to Zhen Mo Continent. If there’s better opportunities there, why would they come to Zhen Mo Continent?”
Pang Qi looked at the two of them, and said in an extremely serious tone, ”You’re both wrong, the Lost Continent may not be able to allow people to become Worldly Immortal Kings, but this does not mean that there’s nothing there. We have a low cultivation level, so there’s even more opportunities for us at Lost Continent.”
”How so?” Rong He asked out of confusion. While she believed that Pang Qi would not lie to Xiong Xingteng and her, but she still did not really understand what he was saying. Just as Xingteng had said, if the cultivation culture of Lost Continent was that great, why did their top geniuses come to Zhen Mo Continent?
Pang Qi then asked, ”Let me ask you two, do you know who is rank 1 on the Mortal Board?”
”Isn’t it Yan Yangnan?” Rong He and Xiong Xingteng were puzzled, as this information could be found in every cultivation city, so why did brother have to ask about it?
Pang Qi quickly added on, ”What I’m talking about is not the current rank 1, but the previous rank 1… Another way to put it is that Star King Mountain’s Mortal Board ranking, is the Mortal King Board’s ranking…”
”Brother Qi, how do you know of the Star King Mountain’s Mortal King Board?” Xiong Xingteng asked excitedly.
The Mortal King Board was a ranking made of all past rank 1s of the Mortal Board. This ranking was completely based on the strength of the past rank 1s, and only those who had been rank 1 on the Mortal Board would be qualified to be on this board. Similar to the Mortal King Board, there were a Earth King Board and a Heaven King Board.
However, the Mortal King Board was completely different from the Mortal Board. The Mortal Board rankings was known by everyone, but the Mortal King Board was located in the deepest part of Star King Mountain, and no one other than a few experts knew the rankings on the Mortal King Board. Most people didn’t even know of its existence.
Precisely because of that, Xiong Xingteng was shocked.
”Brother Qi, I remember now. The previous Mortal Board rank had a very weird name, called Rogue Cultivator 2705.” Rong He suddenly said.
Pang Qi nodded his head, ”Sister Rong is right, the previous rank 1 of Mortal Board was Rogue Cultivator 2705. You two should know Gu Shaoyi right? Rogue Cultivator 2705 defeated him to become Mortal Board’s rank 1. Do you think that Gu Shaoyi is strong? Compared with the current Mortal Board rank 1, Yan Yangnan, who is stronger?”
”Gu Shaoyi should be stronger.” Xiong Xingteng replied. He had seen Gu Shaoyi fight before, and the strength that he witness made him give up any notion of battling Gu Shaoyi.
Pang Qi continued, ”I believe that Gu Shaoyi is stronger too. Because Gu Shaoyi was rank 1 on Mortal Board, so his name is also on the Mortal King Board. From what I heard, Gu Shaoyi is in the top 100 of the Mortal King Board, and since he is in the top 100, it means that Rogue Cultivator 2705 who defeated Gu Shaoyi is also in the top 100…”
”But brother Qi, how does this have anything to do with us going to Lost Continent?” Xiong Xingteng furrowed his brows.
