BXBX NOVEL Chapter 170 Demonic Mountain
The Spirit Devouring Mountain is one of the strongest sects in the Naran Continent, only there will you be able to truly spread your wings and grow to become a true powerhouse. That's why you need to grasp this chance"
The Bloodfang Kingdom was just too small for him, and staying there would instead limit his growth.
Even the most talented eagle would ultimately descend into mediocrity if trapped in a cage
"I know…" Ezra nodded, his hands slowly clenching as he peered into the distance.
"Father, mother… although I can't bear to leave you, as the saying goes, an eagle will one day have to leave its nest. But don't worry, when I return to the Bloodfang Kingdom
I will personally take back everything our Bloodfang Kingdom has lost! So… you must wait for my return!"
<2 Days Later>
High up in the sky.
The clouds were suddenly torn open as a giant shadow zoomed past. The shadow cleanly cut layer after layer of cloud into two, its speed as fast as a shooting star.
At closer inspection, one would discover that it was a giant boat. Countless ancient patterns had been carved into the boat's body, giving off magnificent spiritual energy undulations.
The boat was known as a Storm Breaker Shuttle.
It was a treasure used for rapid long-distance travelling and boasted extremely high speeds. In addition, it could withstand numerous natural elements, allowing it to travel freely.
On the giant boat was a beautiful flower picture, indicating that it belonged to the Veiled Virgin Valley.
The passengers on board were the many envoys and the chosen geniuses from the Naran Continent.
The region of Guardians was extremely far from the region where the 7 sacred sects were situated, and not all the regions along the way were equipped with teleportation arrays. Therefore, the only option was to travel through these continents.
However, there were strong astral winds between the continents, which could only be crossed by a vessel such as the Storm Breaker Shuttle. Trying to cross without one was extremely exhausting, and not a feat that ordinary people would be capable of.
Given the martial prowess of Ezra Zephyr and the rest, they clearly did not possess the qualifications to cross between continents.
On a certain level on the giant boat.
Xavier was seated crossed-legged as he puffed his cigar. Before him were Ezra, Zulfi, Shifa, Argus, Theor, Xyr and the other hundreds or so geniuses of Bloodfang that had been chosen to enter the Spirit Devouring Mountain.
Ezra was seated at the front, clearly the leader of the group.
In the small group behind them was a familiar figure. It was a man named Cen Zutton, the man who once troubled Ezra and Theor in the auction, following the lead of Salom Uqually and Emily Jomez.
At the very beginning, Theor, who remembered him had been rather astonished that he had managed to enter the Spirit Devouring Mountain.
Later on, Xavier explained that he had given his permission because the Zutton Clan Leader had personally pleaded.
Although Theor was not really fond of the guy who had given him and his prince quite a bit of trouble in the Auction. Surprisingly, he did not join hands with Salom Uqually in Spirity Bailiwick. After all, following Ezra's rise in strength, Cen Zutton was no longer a threat.
Cen Zutton was a smart individual and knew that his status as the clan's young master was useless here. Hence, he was much more well-behaved on their journey, as if afraid that prince Ezra would target him.
"At our current speed, we should reach the Demonic Mountain in a month.
Do all of you know of the Demonic Mountain?" Xavier felt that it was a good time to teach these little ones some common knowledge.
Everyone shook their heads.
Xavier sighed and began to explain, "The Demonic Mountain is the largest mountain in the Naran Continent. Legend says all of the other big mountains nearby were split off from Demonic Mountain during another worldly battle."
At that point, a fight came to Ezra's mind. The fight between Spirit Devouring Mountain and Dragonkin Ayrton Magnus.
Xavier was perpetual "Hence, if one were to say that the total minerals of other sects were ten, Demonic Mountain would be blessed with sixty percent. That's why it has been called the gathering place of material.
The Demonic Mountain's vastness is far beyond your imagination, and there are seven peaks that have been established there."
After spending a good part of the day talking, Xavier took one final puff of smoke, before he glanced at the group and slowly said, "Besides all this, there is something I should tell all of you. Although you guys were selected by me, it does not mean that you will be able to truly become disciples of the Spirit Devouring Mountain."
These words caused everyone's expression to freeze for a moment.
"There are millions of continents in the Lower Realm, and the geniuses of these continents will also be selected by the Spirit Devouring Mountain.
At the end of the day, the number of new disciples will likely be over ten thousand. These individuals are the same as yourselves, each one an outstanding elite in their respective continents.
After you guys arrive at the Spirit Devouring Sect, all of the new disciples will have three months to acclimatise and train. After which will be the peak selection ceremony. And only by passing the peak selection ceremony would you be allowed to enter one of the seven peaks, and formally become disciples of the Spirit Devouring Mountain.
About half of the participants will be eliminated during the peak selection ceremony. In other words, likely half or even more of you guys will be eliminated. These individuals can only become recorded disciples which may only train outside the peaks. Only after making sufficient contributions will they be permitted to join the seven peaks."
Upon hearing these words, even Ezra Zephyr's eyes widened slightly. To think that half would be eliminated looks like it wasn't so easy to enter the Spirit Devouring Mountain.
