Chapter 991: Entering the Mountain
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the foot of Fallen Immortal Mountain, Yao Mengji, Gu Changqing and the others led the Heavenly Army and the others and sat around the mountain. They were resting while they guarded the perimeter.
They just worked together to fight Madman Chu. They suffered heavy injuries.
Not a single person spoke there. All of them were incredibly focused, with heavy expressions on their faces.
That was because all of them knew that they were the expert’s last line of defense. Even if the line was very weak, they needed to persevere to the end. They would not regret dying!
“Who is this?!” Yao Mengji’s eyes widened, looking at the air in the distance.
Over there, the figure slowly walked toward them.
Suddenly, everyone stood up as they locked into that person, preparing for battle.
Yao Mengji and the emperor headed toward that person, “You’re… Zhou Yuanhai?”
Yao Mengji recognized that person, and could not help but frown.
Zhou Yuanhai was at the Heavenly Palace before and was also a servant of one of the ancient battle spirits. Yao Mengji had an impression of him.
Zhou Yuanhai had a warm smile on his face, nodding, “It is me..”
“Zhou Yuanhai, the situation is a little unique at the moment. Please don’t come any closer,” The emperor said, his eyes full of alertness.
Zhou Yuanhai did not appear that many times, so the Heavenly Palace did not give him their complete trust. Furthermore, in such a time, it was one thing to not participate in the battle, but coming here meant that he did not look like a good guy at all.
“I know. This should be where Wisdom is, right? The expert you talk about,” Zhou Yuanhai still had a warm smile on his face, and his expression was calm. However, what he said caused a chill in everyone.
“Formation!” Yao Mengji immediately shouted, his power soaring as he pushed it right at Zhou Yuanhai.
The emperor summoned up fire dragons to surround Zhou Yuanhai as well, preparing to fight to the death.
The Heavenly Army immediately jumped up at Yao Mengji’s voice, surrounding Zhou Yuanhai in a massive formation, intent on sealing Zhou Yuanhai up.
Yao Mengji clenched his teeth as he said, “Why are you here?”
“Can’t you guess my goal?” Zhou Yuanhai thought nothing about all of them. He was in no panic at all. That was because he calculated everything. No one could stop him at this moment.
“Kill him!”
“Kill him at all costs!”
“We can’t let him advance any further!”
Yang Mengji and the others all shouted at the same time. At that moment, all of them were ready to sacrifice themselves, using their powers without holding back at all. They even burned up their life force to stop Zhou Yuanhai.
Yet…
Zhou Yuanhai merely let out a small wave, and their powers were all suppressed.
The Heavenly Army started to fall like rain, crashing on the ground as they glared at Zhou Yuanhai reluctantly.
“Do you know why I’m not killing you? All of you can be considered protectors too. It’ll be interesting letting you witness me swallow up Wisdom,” Zhou Yuanhai continued to smile after he said that. In front of everyone, he started to walk up the mountain.
“S-stop!” The emperor grabbed Zhou Yuanhai’s leg but was kicked away.
Yao Mengji, Gu Changqing, and the others did everything they could to crawl onto the ground, trying to stop Zhou Yuanhai.
However, it was all futile.
The strongest among them was only at the second step of the Wisdom Elite Realm. Zhou Yuanhai had been a supreme being for a long time, no ordinary one at that.
He did not even bother looking at everyone as he continued up the mountain.
…
“Someone barged into the mountain!” Cultivator Junjun frantically said, feeling something.
His opponent took the chance to slam a palm onto his chest, causing a massive hole to form there.
Yet, Cultivator Junjun did not care at all, and said anxiously, “Someone’s climbing the mountain. He’s aiming for the expert!”
It was not just him, Yang Jian, Xiao Chengfeng and the others suddenly lost their focus as well, losing out to their opponents. Half of Xiao Chengfeng’s body was shattered by Space Disruptor, laying his life bare.
They shared senses with those from the Heavenly Palace, and immediately received the news. They were suddenly not interested in fighting at all.
At that moment, they only had one thought in mind, which was to stop that person. They needed to get back even if they died trying!
“How could this be? Someone’s looking for big brother?” Nanan and the others started to panic as well.
“Water as a guide, Water Mirror!” Dragin blocked down the attack that came at her and used her Water Mirror, revealing the situation in Fallen Immortal Mountain.
They saw the army on the floor hopelessly as they looked in a direction with reluctance. Over there, Zhou Yuanhai walked up Fallen Immortal Mountain, heading straight for the residence.
“It’s him! Zhou Yuanhai?!” Xiao Chengfeng’s face tightened as he said coldly.
Yang Jian quickly figured everything out, “He had mixed in with us to figure out the expert’s situation. He was preparing for this!”
Hearing that it was related to Wisdom, the traitors all stopped as well. When they saw Zhou Yuanhai, they were stunned.
“It’s him?”
The drunkard was taken aback, “You know him as well?”
“He was the one who told us we could use this chance to swallow Wisdom, urging us to ambush you,” the Unrivaled said darkly, realizing he was used.
“Crap, you bunch of idiots!” The strong man cursed, wanting nothing else than to appear at Fallen Immortal Mountain in an instant to stop Zhou Yuanhai.
In the image, Zhou Yuanhai seemed to feel everyone’s gaze. He looked over and gazed right at everyone before revealing a mocking smile.
“I don’t mind telling all of you. I’m the leader of the Heaven Plundering Alliance. Also… The Wisdom Fire you saw in the Golden Lake, and the one protector that was missing. That was me. For the last lifetime, I protected the Wisdom Fire. However, I regretted it at the last moment. I realized that I don’t want to sacrifice myself. I want to stand at the peak of the world! Hahaha, after waiting for so long, the day is finally here!”
Zhou Yuanhai laughed out loud, incredibly pleased.
He did not only survive protecting the Wisdom Fire, but also learned how to absorb the gray mist. He founded the Heaven Plundering Alliance and stole everything in the world. He was not just researching Wisdom, but the gray mist as well. He hid behind the scenes for so many years, all for the sake of this day.
At that moment, he unleashed his power without reservation. It exceeded the Unrivaled, and even Blackie!
He hid all this while despite being so long. He already had the power to suppress Li Nianfan’s residence, but he remained in hiding. That was because he did not want to be noticed by Wisdom. He did not want to become a chess piece.
In a flash, he appeared at the door.
