Chapter 1186: Ancient Feather Abyss
With this sentence, Chu Liuyue could finally rest assured. It’s rare to have such a chance, so I have to treasure it!
Thus, she rapidly recalled the herbs she saw at Medicinal Valley today. After calculating for a while, she came to a conclusion: I’m on a roll! In consideration of how much Elder Wan Zheng is going to spend, I have to produce the pill properly this time!
...
Miles away, in Ancient Feather Abyss.
The mountains surrounded the area with lush greenery.
A dark-blue lake was in the middle with many trees growing beside it, adding a tinge of soft greenery around it.
The sky and the water were of the same color as the branches swayed, and the water flowed down from one direction, forming a faint silver waterfall.
It appeared like a river that passed through the forest, looking brilliant.
This was an extremely special place within the God Residence Realm. Rumors had it that a royal Armory Refinement Master had produced weapons here thousands of years ago and successfully made a royal Yuan instrument. It was a pity that the production had exhausted all of the Armory Refinement Master’s strength and energy.
Not long after he produced the royal Yuan instrument, he collapsed. Ever since then, the royal Yuan instrument had been left within Ancient Feather Abyss, disappearing without a trace.
Over thousands of years, countless cultivators from the God Residence Realm came here and used all the means they had to find that royal Yuan instrument. However, Ancient Feather Abyss was very perilous.
Cultivators left their lives here one after another, yet they still couldn’t find that item. Gradually, fewer people came.
But in recent months, strange happenings kept occurring in Ancient Feather Abyss.
Quite a few people guessed that it was probably the royal Yuan instrument that was about to descend! Hence, everyone was tempted! Many powers wanted to take this chance and obtain it for themselves!
Originally, Ling Xiao Academy rarely participated in such matters.
But this time was different. This was because the person who produced the royal Yuan instrument and had fallen—the royal Armory Refinement Master—was someone from Ling Xiao Academy!
Thus, the elders and students formed teams this time and made preparations to come to this place.
Rong Xiu and the rest had been waiting here for a solid ten days.
During this time, many people came from all sorts of places. When some people saw Ling Xiao Academy’s formation, they cowered and sensibly decided to give up.
However, there was still a portion that stayed.
Ling Xiao Academy was truly the top academy in the God Residence Realm. The people who came today included Rong Xiu and the others, who represented many formidable aristocratic families.
But even so, it couldn’t deter everyone.
After all, the Sky-Cloud Empire and the others weren’t the only aristocratic families in the God Residence Realm. Besides, with such benefits, who would care about those things?
At this point, people from all walks of life gathered at Ancient Feather Abyss as they waited for the descent of the legendary royal Yuan instrument.
“It has already been so long. Other than the occasional strange phenomena appearing in the sky, there hasn’t been much reaction below. I wonder how long we will need to wait for the treasure to descend...” A woman’s soft voice could be heard from Ling Xiao Academy’s team.
“It’s a royal Yuan instrument after all, so it’ll naturally require some effort. We’ve already waited a few thousand years. This bit of time is nothing,” comforted someone from the side.
“Yeah! Such Yuan instruments haven’t appeared in the God Residence Realm in a while. Besides, this is an item that originally belonged to our academy’s senior. No matter how long it takes, we have to wait for it.”
“Not only do we have to wait, but we still need to bring the item back successfully. If not, we’ll waste our time here, and we’ll tarnish our reputation.”
They discussed softly, but from start to end, Rong Xiu didn’t say anything as he stood at the side and waited patiently.
He was dressed in a snow-white robe and stood upright as if he were quietly admiring the scenery of Ancient Feather Abyss. But if one took a closer look, they would realize that the surrounding Heaven and Earth Force was entering his body rapidly and silently.
Actually, those who traveled with him had long discovered this. But every time they saw it, they still couldn’t help but be shocked. Only the people who have completely entered the Apotheosis Realm can do this, yet he can do it so smoothly and nonchalantly!
People couldn’t even be jealous of him.
When one was more outstanding than the surrounding people, they would usually be the targets of jealousy or ostracization. But if they were much better—to the extent that others could only look up to them—those feelings would turn into admiration and respect.
Rong Xiu was the second type. It wasn’t that nobody wanted to overtake him, but... It was too difficult!
“Rong Xiu has left the academy for a few years, right? I didn’t expect him to improve in strength so quickly... Even some of the elders in the academy might not be his match now, right?”
“Didn’t they say that the Sky-Cloud Empire has been very messy for the last few years? Originally, I thought that he wouldn’t have time to properly cultivate as he would be busy handling those matters. Who knew... The Sky-Cloud Empire is in his hands now, and his abilities have been greatly strengthened! How exactly did he do it?”
“Tsk, you’re asking me? If I knew, could I still be like this?”
The crowd of people roared with laughter, and the atmosphere was rather harmonious. However, there were times when people loved to ruin such an atmosphere.
“He just became a true god one step earlier than us. What’s so amazing about that?” Wei Xiping’s face was cold, and his voice had a hint of mockery.
The surrounding people’s voices gradually quietened down as quite a few people exchanged glances in secret.
A young woman smiled and said, “It’s easy to talk. Wei Xiping, you’re also considered a famous cultivator. Surely you know how difficult it is to ‘become a true god one step earlier,’ right?”
They were all around the same age and had entered the academy around similar times. But now, Rong Xiu had already broken through to become a true god, yet they could only admire him.
The difference between them grew larger and larger. How could they not feel emotional?
Wei Xiping clenched his teeth and didn’t answer. He thought to himself, When I have the chance, I must kill RongXiu’s aura! This time, I must be in front ofRongXiu when the royal Yuan instrument descends!
Rong Xiu completely ignored those discussions. As he kept absorbing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Force to strengthen himself, he kept looking at the scenery below and around him. His handsome and demonic-like expression was light. Nobody knew what he was thinking.
Rumble!
A loud sound suddenly came from the sky, and the originally noisy sounds disappeared in unison.
Everyone looked up, and they saw that the dark clouds gathered quickly in the cloudless sky!
The harsh winds howled angrily, and the thunder boomed.
The sky quickly darkened.
“It’s for real this time! That item must be descending!” On a mountain peak not far away, a macho man with tanned skin laughed. “It came just on time! Let me see what this legendary weapon can do!”
Rong Xiu also looked up. His eyes were filled with calmness, and nobody could see through him.
Rumble!
The lightning descended!
