I Have A Qi Fortune Altar
Chapter 1669 - 797: Mount Gazing Heaven, Xuanwu! (Part 2)
And behind the Gujin Royal Court, there are actually two terrifying grassland royal courts existing. In this grand invasion by the Gujin Royal Court, the figures of two other great royal courts were involved.
This time, Chen Yuan's destination, the Extreme North Snowfield Wangtian Peak, as seen on the map, is somewhat associated with one of these royal courts.
This royal court is called the Gumu Royal Court, located furthest north on the grassland, extremely far away from the Central Plains, at a distance of over a hundred thousand li, rarely seen by ordinary people.
But its position is near the ice plain.
This royal court is recorded as the oldest one, its strength yet unknown, always existing in legends, even the former Princely Heir of Beiliang, Wei Wuque, was not very clear about it.
Therefore, in truth, Chen Yuan's arrival this time could be considered groping in the dark.
However, for an existence like him, a moment is enough for a Soul Search, learning detailed information from the tribes under the rule of the Gumu Royal Court.
The grassland nomads under the Royal Court number far fewer than those of the Gujin Royal Court, possessing less than three hundred thousand troops, yet its strength cannot be underestimated, in terms of elite forces, the three great courts could be considered the first.
Three hundred thousand Snowfield Iron Cavalry are enough to match five hundred thousand troops of the Gujin Royal Court, and their powerful martial artists are titled as Snowfield Warriors, trained from a young age, possessing strength that ordinary martial artists of the same level cannot match.
As for matters concerning the Barbarian God at higher levels, no small tribe could know of it, but this is enough to heighten Chen Yuan's vigilance.
If he can avoid encountering the Barbarian God of the Gumu Royal Court, that would naturally be best.
But....
Sometimes, it's not about what he wants, but he can't avoid it.
Because the Wangtian Peak, his destination, is the Holy Mountain of the Gumu Royal Court. Although it's unguarded, if there's too much noise, it would inevitably be discovered.
Upon learning this news, Chen Yuan's heart sank.
...
The cold wind howled, bone-chilling.
The entire sky was turned to a snow-white color, and goose feather-like snow was falling from the void, this wasn't by coincidence, but rather the norm on the ice plain.
Furthermore, he learned from the tribe's mouth that in recent years, the ice plain has grown colder, gradually devouring the grassland, turning it into an ice plain.
And their origin is from migrating all the way south....
The Barbarian God of the Gumu Royal Court is a major threat, but Chen Yuan cannot stop just because of the threat, he dared to act even under the eyes of the Buddha, so naturally a royal court could not halt his steps.
Chen Yuan still wore a thin robe, seemingly about to be overwhelmed by the heavy snow at any moment, but if looked at closely, the cold wind and snow avoided him.
Within a ten-zhang radius around him, it was as if a layer of a protective shield was enveloping him, standing firm.
"Hu...."
Chen Yuan's brows furrowed tightly, even if he could follow the Heavenly Phenomenon to find a general direction, finding the Wangtian Peak amidst a vast white snow was no easy task.
Wangtian Peak is a holy place of the Gumu Royal Court. Ordinary tribes only know of its existence and general direction but not its exact location, nor is there any map for his reference.
Truly difficult....
"I must find a direct descendant of the Gumu Royal Court!"
Soon, Chen Yuan swiftly made up his mind, though a bit dangerous, it would at least give him a concrete target, rather than aimlessly wandering on the ice plain.
The Extreme Northern Ice Field.... according to the grassland tribes, it is as endless as the Southern Border's Ten Thousand Great Mountains.
No sooner said than done, Chen Yuan acted swiftly as always, with no delays, quickly changing direction and returning to the grassland.
Afterwards, Chen Yuan concealed his presence, stealthily venturing into the Gumu Royal Court's territory. Due to his excellent concealment of his aura, this mission went very smoothly for Chen Yuan.
He easily found a Saint Heir of the royal court. Without any nonsense, just as the heir was about to scream in terror, Chen Yuan's Divine Thought penetrated his mind.
Within moments, he obtained all the information he desired.
Afterwards, he expertly transformed the heir into dust, disappearing silently within the royal court.
He watched as the royal court descended into chaos over the heir's death, distracting many, before continuing in the direction of the ice plain with peace of mind.
Without causal ties, unless the Gumu Royal Court could reverse time, they wouldn't find the truth.
From the heir's memory, Chen Yuan finally found what he wanted and learned the specific location of Wangtian Peak. In short, the Gumu Royal Court was very sly.
The so-called Wangtian Peak is not the tallest snow mountain in the Snowfield, nor does it appear remarkable at first glance, just one among thousands of inconspicuous snowy peaks.
If not previously informed, it would be very hard to find.
But if you know its location, finding it becomes extremely easy.
The specific use of the Holy Mountain, even the Saint Heir wasn't clear, he only knew that every few years, the Great Khan would lead some royal court leaders there to conduct rituals.
Seemingly like an origin place.
After about half a day, Chen Yuan arrived at Wangtian Peak.
Looking at this ordinary snowy mountain, Chen Yuan laughed, there was nothing unusual about it, if there were anything different, it was how quickly the snow melted here.
Besides that, no anomalies existed.
The surrounding was desolate, Chen Yuan searched a hundred-li-radius around without a trace of human presence, and even at the speed of a Demi Immortal, it was a half-day's journey to the Gumu Royal Court.
Even if a great battle occurred, the Barbarian God of the Gumu Royal Court couldn't arrive in time.
This was the only good news Chen Yuan received.
The Emperor Slaughter Saber slowly took form in his hand, Chen Yuan's gaze became cold, and his physical body's blood began boiling, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy in the snowfield swiftly gathering.
Although slightly thin, it was of an extremely vast amount.
With a single strike, a terrifying sword light of hundreds of zhang burst forth, tearing through the sky, directly striking Wangtian Peak.
The quickest and most effective way is to crush this mountain, then slowly search for the trail of the North Pole Xuanwu Divine Beast, which for him, was very easy. ๐๐๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐๐ธ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ต.๐ฌ๐ค๐ข
The horrifying sword light struck the mountain, instantly causing a sky-shaking tremor, the entire ground shuddered as if ten thousand horses were galloping.
Surrounding snow mountains crumbled, the rumbling sound raising a mist of snow reaching a thousand zhagns, echoing as if the entire world resounded.
Enduring Chen Yuan's one strike, Wangtian Peak was abruptly sliced at its waist, countless rocks and snow avalanches rolled down like doomsday.
Chen Yuan's heart showed no emotion, as one strike concluded, a second sword light blossomed, striking again at the now half-height Wangtian Peak.
This strike replicated the previous scenario, only resulting in ever more avalanches.
Even tens of miles away, due to the roar of this sword light, everything seemed to collapse, looking from a distance, as if half the sky was crumbling.
The relentless rumbling persisted for dozens of breaths.
Just as Chen Yuan was about to continue with the third strike, he suddenly stopped his hand, his expression gradually turning grave, because the booming that had just ceased resounded again.
This time it wasn't because of him, but as if something was surging up from beneath the ground, causing surrounding mountains to tremble, countless hills collapsing.
The ground cracked, and Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy raged throughout the realm.
Under Wangtian Peak, a huge head suddenly emerged and roared at Chen Yuan, ears slightly ringing from the roar, the enormous head nearly a hundred zhang in size.
Soaring momentum erupted, half of Wangtian Peak was directly lifted up, turned out....the entire Wangtian Peak rested on the back of the Xuanwu, its massive form, exceeding a thousand zhang.
"Roar!!!"
The Xuanwu seemed startled awake, opening its mouth to emit a white beam of light.
