The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 007
Chapter 007 Central Divine Mountain
Li Qing looked at them in awe and couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Are you really immortals?”
The old man shook his head with a laugh and said, “No, there are no immortals in this world. Even if there are, they are only powerful humans.”
“Why did the corpses of those two demonic beasts disappear?” He felt a little incredulous in his heart. This was completely beyond his comprehension.
“That’s a spatial ring. Don’t you even know about spatial rings?” The girl said with a shriveled mouth.
“A spatial ring! There’s actually such a thing?” Although Li Qing had never heard of this thing, it did not prevent him from understanding what it was.
The old man smiled faintly and said, “The world is so big. There are many things you don’t know. You’ll know when you see more. Alright, don’t ask. Let’s go. Let’s continue on our way.” He didn’t want to say anything else and continued to walk forward with the girl.
Although Li Qing was very curious, it was not convenient for him to ask any further. He hurriedly followed behind. The three of them continued towards the center of the mountain range.
The old man’s surname was Liu, and the girl was his granddaughter, Liu Ke’er. She was fifteen years old.
Ke Er, Ke Er, as her name suggests, she is indeed extremely cute.
Li Qing had never seen such a beautiful girl before. He was a little tempted, so he couldn’t help but peek at her from time to time, wanting to find an opportunity to talk to her and get close. However, Liu Ke’er was like a proud little swan, raising her head high, with an arrogant and tender expression, ignoring him.
Seeing her like this, Li Qing was also a little angry in his heart. Immediately, a masculine aura emerged. He also raised his head high and no longer looked at her.
The three of them walked silently for a while.
“Hey, coward, why aren’t you talking?” Liu Ke’er’s crisp and melodious voice rang out.
Coward? Hearing this, Li Qing’s face turned green. How did he get such a nickname?
With a “puchi” sound, Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but laugh. She smiled even more adorably, her eyes narrowed like a pair of crescent moons.
Li Qing’s eyes went straight when he saw it. He hurriedly moved his eyes away and didn’t dare to look any further. He replied sullenly, “I don’t think you want to talk to me, so I didn’t say anything.”
Liu Ke’er revealed a wronged expression and said, “If I ignore you, will you ignore me? My parents said that girls can’t speak to boys on their own initiative.”
Li Qing scratched his head and didn’t know what to say. He was not good at communicating, and his emotional world was blank, so he looked very clumsy.
Seeing this, Liu Ke’er pouted and said, “What a piece of wood.” With that, she giggled again. What a laughing girl.
Such a beautiful laugh always made people feel good and liked.
Hearing this laugh, Li Qing’s mood became much happier. He couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Alright, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t ignore you, okay?”
Liu Ke’er said proudly, “That’s more like it.”
As soon as the gap between the two disappeared, they quickly got to know each other. Although Liu Ke’er looked a little arrogant, she was actually very lively, chattering nonstop. After all, the two of them were teenagers. Soon, there was nothing they could not talk about. Along the way, there were a lot of cheers and laughter.
Just like that, the three of them slowly walked towards the depths of the Lianyun Mountain Range under the setting sun.
Through talking to Liu Ke’er, Li Qing learned a lot about common sense. For example, the interspatial ring was actually forged from something called a Star Stone. The Star Stone contained a space that was the product of the natural luck of heaven and earth, but humans would never be able to create such a miraculous object.
Of course, he would encounter all sorts of dangers along the way, but with an unfathomable expert like the old man, these problems were no longer a problem. No matter how powerful the demonic beasts were, they were mercilessly suppressed by him with one hand. It was simply unstoppable.
This last part of the journey was also the most dangerous part of the journey. Being crushed by him all the way, it was extremely relaxed and peaceful.
Three days later, they arrived at their destination. In front of him was the center of the mountain range. It was shrouded in thick clouds and was extremely mysterious.
Here we are at last!
Li Qing felt relieved. He remembered that it had taken him three years to reach this place, and that the last part of the journey had only taken three days. He couldn’t help but burst into tears. It was convenient for an expert like the old man to lead the way! This was truly a person-to-person competition. It was extremely irritating.
He looked at the mysterious place shrouded in fog and asked, “Why is the fog here so heavy?”
The old man said, “Of course there is another mystery. Actually, this is a peerless grand formation. If you walk here alone and no one leads the way, you will definitely not be able to walk through this fog and enter it.”
“A peerless grand formation!” Li Qing was shocked. He couldn’t help but ask, “Why is there a grand formation here? Could there be someone…”
The old man nodded and said, “That’s right. The formation here was set up by people. There is a mountain inside. There is a secluded sect on the mountain. This formation is the Mountain Guarding Formation. Follow me and you will know. I will bring you into the formation now.”
When he arrived at the fog, he even deliberately turned around and warned, “You must follow me closely. Otherwise, it would be very easy for you to get lost.” After saying that, he took the lead and entered the fog.
Li Jin and Liu Ke’er hurriedly followed. As soon as they entered, they felt their entire bodies sink. It was as if a huge boulder had been pressed down and their bodies had been suppressed. However, Li Qing had a lot of strength, so he could easily endure it. Looking at Liu Ke’er again, she exuded a burst of spiritual light. She actually looked completely unharmed. She was a little surprised in her heart. She didn’t expect that she would actually have such strength at such a young age.
Inside was a vast expanse of white, only a few meters away could be seen, and the old man’s figure could be vaguely seen. He followed closely, feeling confused. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he suddenly felt his entire body loosen up. His eyes lit up, and the heavens and earth suddenly became clear.
Finally, they left the formation. Li Jin looked up and couldn’t help but be shocked: What a divine mountain!
The mountain in front of him was very peculiar. There were eight mountain peaks that formed a circle and formed a mysterious formation. It was completely natural.
The old man introduced, “This mountain is called the Eight Desolate Mountains. There are eight mountain peaks on the mountain. It just happens to be divided in all directions. It is in line with the meaning of the Eight Desolates, so it gets its name.” The so-called Eight Desolates were located in eight directions, namely, the east, south, west, north, southeast, southwest, northwest, and northeast.
“Each of the eight peaks has its own unique scenery. They are: Cyanwood Peak, Li Huo Peak, Golden Emperor Peak, Xuanshui Peak, Flaming Sun Peak, Jade Light Peak, You Yue Peak, and Blue Wolf Peak. You can distinguish them if you take a closer look.”
Li Qing stared at the eight peaks. As expected, the eight peaks had their own strange scenery. They were extremely miraculous. The scenery is as follows:
Dongfang Qingmu Peak: Immortal peaches often bear fruit, pine and cypress in Changchun.
Southern Li Fire Peak: Mountains and stones like red jade, flames reflecting sunset clouds.
Western Golden Emperor Peak: Cutting the wall into a strange peak, Heaven and Earth forging divine swords.
Northern Profound Water Peak: Overhead Profound Water Pool, white rainbow hanging from waist.
Southeast Yan Yang Peak: Muddy Yellow Carrier Line, Qi Qi Zhen Yang.
Southwest Jade Light Peak: Green clusters piled up, no stone color.
Northwest Secluded Moon Peak: The mortal world is as independent as the moon.
Northeast Blue Wolf Peak: Pill Cliff gathers monsters, Blue Wolf lies on the peak.
Li Qing couldn’t help but sigh. All sorts of strange phenomena of the eight peaks shone with each other. They were truly divine workmanship of ghosts and axes, the supreme good fortune of nature!
The old man continued, “On this mountain, there is a sect called the Eight Desolate Sect. I am the elder of the Eight Desolate Sect’s Flaming Sun Peak. You can call me Elder Liu in the future.”
Li Qing suddenly realized that it was no wonder that someone with such strength was such a big shot. “Greetings, Elder Liu.”
Elder Liu waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to be too polite. Let’s go, let’s go up the mountain.” After saying that, he took the lead and continued forward.
Just as Li Qing was about to follow, the Heavenly Saber in his hand suddenly shook and a thought entered his mind, seemingly extremely excited. He could feel that the thing Heavenly Saber was longing for was on top of this mountain.
He took a deep breath and thought to himself, “The thing Heavenly Saber craves is right here. But now that this mountain is occupied by the sect, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to obtain. It seems that we still need to act according to the situation and consider it in the long run.”
Suddenly, someone patted Liu Ke’er on the shoulder. She pretended to be a ghost and giggled, “Why are you dumbfounded? Hurry up and leave, wood.”
The old man had already gone far. Li Qing hurriedly followed. Not long after, he saw a stone stele that was several hundred feet tall. On it was written, “Eight Barren Mountains.”
Behind this stone tablet, there was a staircase that went straight up into the clouds. This path was the entrance to the Eight Barren Mountains.
There were four disciples guarding the intersection. They wore uniform clothes, and there was a pattern on their chests. The pattern was eight vertical lines of different colors and lengths.
When they saw the old man, they hurriedly walked forward and saluted, “Greetings, Elder Liu.”
The old man nodded and said, “I want to bring these two up the mountain.” Naturally, the four disciples didn’t dare to object. They hurriedly turned around and made way.
The old man turned around and pointed at the staircase. He said to the two of them, “Next, you two must pay attention. Do you see this staircase in front of you?”
Li Qing looked at the endless mountain climbing staircase and couldn’t help but ask, “Is there anything strange about this staircase?”
The old man said indifferently, “Of course there is. This road is called the Road to Heaven.”
