Chapter 827: Exactly One Hundred
While Jiang Yun followed the strong man towards Tianluo Mountain, at the peak of the mountain that was always covered in clouds, there was an immensely large circular platform.
At this moment, more than ten figures were seated there.
Except for the old man at the very front with pale golden complexion and slightly closed eyes, everyone else’s bodies were covered in a light mist, making it impossible to see their faces clearly.
However, strangely, even though snow was falling heavily from the sky, all the snowflakes would pass through these people when they landed on them, melting into the ground, as if these people were all illusions.
A group of people sat silently here, until after a long time, a voice filled with endless sadness spoke, "Tianluo, this is not the first time you have sensed something. This time, how confident are you?"
The old man with the pale golden complexion remained silent for a moment before speaking slowly, "Not even a sliver of certainty!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, another voice exclaimed, "Not even a sliver of certainty, yet you gathered us all here. Do you think we have nothing to do?"
The old man opened his eyes and glanced calmly at everyone, saying, "Even if there is no certainty, as long as I sense something, we must put in full effort to search! This way, we will eventually find it!"
Upon hearing this, the others fell silent once again.
After quite a long time passed, a woman’s voice asked, "So, this time, how many people have you found?"
The old man with pale golden complexion spoke again, "Ninety-nine, no, exactly one hundred!"
Just as the old man’s voice fell, a large sword about ten feet long slowly flew into Tianluo Mountain!
…
Strictly speaking, at this moment, Jiang Yun had not truly set foot on Tianluo Mountain, he had only entered the vicinity of Tianluo Mountain.
But in his eyes, a light had already lit up.
This light contained not only confusion and surprise, but more importantly, joy!
Because he could clearly feel that within Tianluo Mountain, the spiritual energy was extremely abundant.
He didn’t even need to actively absorb it himself, the spiritual energy would naturally flow through his pores and into his body.
If he could stay in such an environment all year round, even without taking any medicine or seeking help from a stronger person, in about a hundred or eighty years, it should be enough to completely break down the finger in his body.
As for the confusion and surprise, it was because when he had looked at Tianluo Mountain from afar in Gudang Village before, the feeling of being drawn to something here had become even stronger.
However, this thing seems very far away from me, like it’s on the top of Tianluo Mountain.
It’s even farther!
"What is it about Tianluo Mountain that is attracting me? It must be related to the nine powers and three dao bodies inside me!"
Apart from that, Jiang Yun could feel a strong pressure, but his body was strong enough to not be affected by it.
At that moment, the muscular man who had been silent all the way finally sighed and said, "How about the abundant spirit qi here?"
After saying that, the muscular man shook his head and said, "No, you don’t know what spirit qi is. Do you feel refreshed and energized here?"
Although Jiang Yun chuckled inwardly, he nodded calmly, "Yes."
"Let me tell you, this place is full of spirit qi. Even though you can’t see or touch it, spirit qi is essential for becoming an immortal."
"And, this is just the foothill of our Tianluo Mountain. The higher you go, the more abundant the spirit qi becomes!"
When these words were mentioned, the strong man also raised his head, looking up at the top of Tianluo Mountain.
Although Jiang Yun couldn’t see the expression on his face, it was not difficult to guess that the strong man’s face must be filled with longing at this moment.
Jiang Yun was also quietly watching Tianluo Mountain.
Now Jiang Yun no longer had divine sense, he could only rely on his eyes to see.
Because he was now at the front of Tianluo Mountain, he could only see part of the mountain.
Even so, it was still visible that Tianluo Mountain was not only astonishingly high but also extremely vast in size.
The red mountain gate facing Jiang Yun alone was about a hundred feet wide, very majestic.
Especially the two characters "Tianluo" written on it in a lively manner, made Jiang Yun’s eyes sparkle.
Because these two characters are very ancient, it indicates that Tianluo Sect has been in existence for a very long time.
On both sides of the mountain gate, there were no guards in sight. It seemed unguarded, but Jiang Yun knew deep down that the red gate covered in various runes must hold some mysteries inside.
To the right of the mountain gate was a sizable valley, where Jiang Yun could see some formations at the entrance and several simple huts inside.
Inside the mountain gate, there was a winding staircase going steeply upwards. One wrong step could lead to a fall.
The staircase extended about a thousand feet high, revealing different styles of buildings scattered across the mountainside.
Even though it was nighttime, the sight of colorful rainbows constantly moving in and out of the buildings was clear.
For cultivators, there was no real distinction between day and night.
Moving further up, at about a thousand feet high, another similar group of buildings emerged.
Even though this wasn’t the Mountain-Sea World or the Seeking-Tao Sect, Jiang Yun knew that disciples from different sects had various levels of hierarchy.
Since the higher they went on Tianluo Mountain, the richer the spirit qi, it was clear that Tianluo Sect disciples resided at approximately a thousand feet above ground.
The first buildings at the highest position are where the lower disciples of Tianluo Sect live.
"Since you are not a disciple of our Tianluo Sect yet, you cannot enter the sect for real."
"It’s getting late now, and you are just a mortal. You can spend the night in that valley, and tomorrow morning, someone will guide you to enter the sect."
As they spoke, the strong man had already brought Jiang Yun down to the valley.
On the cliff at the valley entrance, there was a groove and its shape made Jiang Yun think of the shining stone right away.
Indeed, the strong man walked up and placed the stone in the groove. A gust of wind blew, and Jiang Yun knew that the hidden formation here had been activated.
Then, the strong man took the stone out and pointed to a house in the distance, saying, "The second room in the third row, that’s where you’ll stay tonight."
"Okay!"
Without asking further, Jiang Yun was about to step in, but the strong man stopped him and said, "Oh, and if someone asks who brought you here, remember to mention my name. Otherwise, I won’t get the credit."
Jiang Yun sadly shook his head and said, "Shouldn’t you tell me your name first?"
"Oh, I forgot. I’m called Wu Ning, and you?"
"Fang Mang!"
Jiang Yun borrowed the name of the One Hundred Thousand Mang Mountains, after all, both the names Jiang Yun and Gu Jiang were no longer a secret.
He knew nothing about the Tianluo Sect, or even this world, so just in case, he couldn’t use these two names anymore.
"Dear Fang, I hope you pass tomorrow’s test successfully!"
"Wait!"
Wu Ning’s words made Jiang Yun frown, "There’s a test? What kind of test? What will happen if I fail?"
