Chapter 800 Absolute Mountain City (1/2)

This long-range teleportation process was something that would consume a large amount of top-grade spirit stones. For Chen Feng, though, the amount required was nothing. However, Lan Ling, Jian Qingwu and Jian Qingling ended up going speechless when they saw the spirit stones.

“Chen Feng, did you find some treasure hoard inside the Heavensday Battlefield? You seem quite rich,” Jian Qingwu, who was standing beside Chen Feng, asked him in a hushed tone.

“Yes, I found a big treasure hoard,” Chen Feng said smilingly.

“What is in it? Hurry, tell us about it,” Jian Qingling asked curiously.

“Some Immortal artefact…” Chen Feng said, deliberately pausing slightly. As expected, everyone there jerked, turning their gazes over. Jian Qingwu and Jian Qingling stared with widened eyes.

“Fragments!” Chen Feng then continued.

Hearing that, they all ended up sighing.

“Obtaining some Immortal artefact fragments is also an enviable thing. Many Earthen Immortals would want to get their hands on them. Chen Feng, you will have to be careful.”

“Ha ha ha! Thank you for the advice. However, there is no need to be careful. I have already sold all the Immortal artefact fragments for spirit stones,” Chen Feng said, laughing.

“What? You sold them all? Those are Immortal artefact fragments! No matter how much spirit stones you might have, you will be incapable of buying them!” Jian Qingwu stared at Chen Feng. The gaze she gave him was like that of one staring at a spendthrift.

“Changing them to spirit stones makes it easier for me to cultivate. What’s the point in keeping Immortal artefact fragments? I am neither able to eat or drink them.” Chen Feng shook his head.

“Sigh! You’re simply… just…” Jian Qingling stared at Chen Feng, uncertain of just what to say.

Although they doubted the veracity of Chen Feng’s words, Tie Yuan and Feng Jian had still decided to ask Chen Feng if he still had any more of the Immortal artefact fragments on him.

Immortal artefact fragments were good items. By obtaining one, they would be able to study higher-levelled immortal dao laws. By doing so, it was possible for them to experience a rapid rise in strength.

“Ha ha ha! I had sold them all.” Chen Feng shook his head. Hearing that, everyone grew disappointed. As for Chen Feng, he smiled inwardly. The fact that he no longer possessed any Immortal artefact fragments aside, even if he did possess some, he would not bring them out. There was the Longevity Tower waiting for the Immortal artefact fragments, after all. If he had any good items, he would want nothing more than to throw them all at the Longevity Tower.

Absolute Mountain City was a large-scale city with up to tens of millions of cultivators living inside it. Although it was built by Absolute Academy, the cultivators living there came from all over the place.

It was the same thing for the Absolute Mountain Range. Although the Holyland known as Absolute Academy was located there, there was also a high number of forces and countless cultivators residing within the Absolute Mountain Range.

That said, Absolute Academy was still the apex existence there. If Absolute Academy so desired, it could easily clear the entire Absolute Mountain Range. However, it chose not to do so. On the contrary, Absolute Academy would take measures to encourage more cultivators to come. Occasionally, some high-level cultivators from Absolute Academy would link up to the Immortal Plane to absorb an enormous amount of immortal energy and spread it around to make the spiritual energy streams around Absolute Mountain Range even richer.

Many cultivators did not understand the reasoning behind this move. Even many of the students from Absolute Academy were puzzled about it. Likewise, after finding out about that, Chen Feng himself was also feeling puzzled.

Thus, upon entering Absolute Mountain City and seeing the cultivators from the various parts of the world there, Chen Feng inquired about it.

“For the development of the academy!” Lan Ling gave a very simple answer.

Hearing that, Chen Feng was first puzzled again. However, after pondering it for a moment, he ended up smiling.

This is a good policy. Looks like I will also need to attract some foreign cultivators to develop East Dragon Island, Chen Feng considered.

“Absolute Mountain City has a population size of 50 million people. The weakest amongst them is at the Concealed stage. Over 100,000 of them are Human Immortals. As for Earthen Immortals, there are around 1,000 to 2,000 of them. Here, you can buy almost everything in the world of cultivation,” Lan Ling proudly introduced the city to Chen Feng.

After hearing what Lan Ling said, Chen Feng sucked in a sharp breath of air. All else aside, the number of Earthen Immortals made Chen Feng wonder if he had misheard her.

“Over 1,000 Earthen Immortals? For real?” Chen Feng asked. It had to be said, some first-rate sects would only have several Earthen Immortals in their ranks. If that number was true, then just how powerful were the Holylands?

“It is the truth. However, they are not part of Absolute Academy’s power. Truth be told, those from Absolute Academy only account for 10% of the forces within this city. The rest are all foreigners,” Feng Jian said.

Chen Feng pondered the matter for a moment before saying, “I think there must surely be a reason why so many cultivators would choose to stay here. Having Human Immortals and those below that stay here is understandable. However, for even some Earthen Immortals to choose to seclude themselves here, there must be a reason.”

“Junior Brother Chen is correct. There is a reason for that,” Lan Ling said smilingly.

“It’s all for the sake of the underground essence vein beneath our Absolute Mountain Range,” said Tie Yuan, who pursed his lips to the side.

“Underground essence vein!”
