Chapter 1585 - 100 000 Cold Mountain
Chapter 1585 – 100 000 Cold Mountain
After leaving the small lakeshore, An Zheng followed the directions given by the key and quickly headed towards the northeast. With his current peak of the Emperor Level 6, sixteen thousand kilometers was nothing to him.
It would be an exaggeration to say that it could only happen in an instant. If he was at the peak of Emperor level 9, then the sixteen thousand li of distance could really be covered in an instant.
And beyond the Emperor level, with the strength of a supreme Emperor level powerhouse, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to travel tens of thousands of kilometers in an instant. Thus, a supreme Emperor level powerhouse like that Daofather who travelled through the vast universe was nothing.
With An Zheng’s current strength, opening the teleportation gate, one foot in, and coming out from the other side, was three thousand miles.
Sixteen thousand kilometers, An Zheng would probably need around three minutes, plus the time to open the teleportation gate.
However, An Zheng opened the teleportation gate for the fourth time, and after traversing 12,000 kilometers, he didn’t feel like he would rush through it the last time. Because the environment here had undergonuge change.
North, 100 000 Cold Mountain, where Bai Lingqi had come from.
Bai Lingqi had said it herself. He was the strongest general under Pre-Qin Emperor’s command back then, the descendant of the War God Bai Luo.
Who was War God Bai Luo?
The Infernal King who had slain four hundred thousand cultivators with a single sword.
It was rumored that there was a small country at the time. Although the country was not very big, but after Qin Mie had destroyed this small country, the exiled small country’s ruler had cultivated a very evil technique, his power multiplied, to the point that Bai Luo’s descendants had no choice but to stay in the 100 000 Cold Mountain to suppress that guy.
Maybe, the king of that small country was still alive now, even if something strange were to happen, An Zheng would find it hard to accept it.
Not only was the 100 000 Cold Mountain so cold that ordinary people couldn’t even get close to it, the pattern formed from this mountain range was actually a natural defensive formation. An Zheng had even inferred that the ice and snow that covered this place throughout the year and the temperature was extremely low was definitely noure natural formation.
An Zheng stopped at the mountain peak closest to the 100 000 Cold Mountain and frowned slightly. With his current strength, his perception of danger had already reached an extremely strong level. He could vaguely sense that there was something powerful in the 100 000 Cold Mountain, that it seemed to be ready to move at any time.
Of course, An Zheng would not be afraid. In this era, the peak of the Emperor Level 6 was almost the strongest existence.
An Zheng extended his hand forward, as if he was touching something in the air, but the thing he wanted to touch was not the space in front of him… When An Zheng stretched out his hand, his sense of touch had already stretched out to a distance of several hundred kilometers. He could tell that the composition of these mountain peaks were very peculiar, and although they looked irregular on the surface, if one were to look at them from a high altitude, they would realize that these mountain peaks were encircled by a ring, as though they were a kind of super barrier created by borrowing the power of the land.
If this barrier was created by the Bai Clan back then, then there must still be people of the Bai Clan supporting it right now. And the function of this barrier should be to suppress the small Xiao Monarch, who even the Pre-Qin Emperor considered to buge threat.
An Zheng recalled carefully, Bai Lingqi seemed to have said before that the small country was called Zhongshan, and Xu Shiyi had also mentioned it before. That small country’s ruler was called Xue Xue Ping, because later on, on the way they were fleeing, they had cultivated an extremely evil art, which caused them to go berserk, killing one of them fohousand miles without a single blade of grass growing.
An Zheng’s sense of touch stopped a few hundred kilometers away, which was the first layer of defense of the 100 000 Cold Mountain’s barrier. The defense was extremely high, and cultivators of the Celestial Sovereign Realm were probably unable to enter.
But to An Zheng, this level of defense was meaningless. However, An Zheng did not dare to let down his guard, as he had keenly sensed that the first layer of defense was actually a type of switch, and that when the first layer of barrier was broken through, it would immediately activate the second layer of defense.
The safest way was to walk through. The defenses in the air were obviously higher than the ground. For cultivators at this level, who would be willing to step inside the barrier?
But An Zheng was in a hurry.
So he stood on the outermost mountain peak and cupped his fists: “There is one of these 100 000 Cold Mountain s that I have to go to, that is what I left behind back then, I will take it back, but I will not offend anyone else, and I will not be rude to all of you, please forgive me.”
With that said, An Zheng rushed towards the northeast direction like a meteor.
In the 100 000 Cold Mountain, the further north they flew, the lower the temperature would be. An Zheng even felt that the air seemed to be frozen over, and the more they flew, the greater the resistance would be.
A streak of white light suddenly attacked from below at an extraordinarily fast speed. Before it appeared, no aura had leaked out.
An Zheng only changed his direction in the air to avoid the rainbow, and continued to move towards the northeast.
“I do not wish to offend you. I merely wish to retrieve something that belongs to me.”
“Humph!”
A cold snort came out, followed by someone shouting angrily: “Everything in this 100 000 Cold Mountain, where is yours, as long as it’s in this 100 000 Cold Mountain, it’s all ours.”
These words were overbearing and unreasonable.
An Zheng frowned, but was not prepared to retaliate.
It was obvious that it was not the same person who had launched the attack last time. From the power of the rainbow, An Zheng could determine that the person who had unleashed the attack had cultivated a similar cultivation technique to Bai Lingqi.
Bai Lingqi herself said that this generation’s descendant was the one who controlled the Bai Family’s inheritance for tens of thousands of years. However, An Zheng was a little suspicious back then … Although the Bai Family was bitterly guarding inside the 100 000 Cold Mountain, from another point of view, for the past tens of thousands of years, the Bai Family had not been affected by any outside interference, and could completely cultivate in peace. Although Bai Lingqi was strong, it did not seem to match her identity as the only successor of the Bai Family.
Xu Shiyi didn’t haveaceful cultivation environment like the Bai Family, and killing Bai Lingqi wasn’t difficult either.
Seemingly because An Zheng had completely angered the person who had dodged the rainbow’s attack twice, there were many sharp rainbows that shot over from many mountain peaks. Their speed became faster and their might became stronger.
An Zheng was like a fighter jet in the air, constantly swaying left and right while dodging the rainbow’s chase, while on the mountain peak underneath An Zheng’s feet, white figures unceasingly flashed and teleported. They were actually completely able to keep up with An Zheng’s speed.
“I will repeat myself one last time. I have only come here to retrieve the item that I lost back then. I have no ill intentions toward you all. If you all continue to push me forward, I will attack you all.”
“Then attack. 100 000 Cold Mountain has never allowed outsiders to be so presumptuous.”
“So what if you’re 100 000 Cold Mountain?”
An Zheng was slightly angered: “In this world, where I can’t come?”
“100 000 Cold Mountain, you can’t come!”
In the blink of an eye, they had already arrived in front of An Zheng. An Zheng had made them know that he had to retreat, but this time, he did not dodge, and released the Cultivation Power, as if he was releasing a mighty divine might. The dozen or so sword Qis that could split apart mountains and seas but were unable to even break An Zheng’s protective Zhen Qi barrier, and shattered one after another.
“Hmm?!”
Some people seemed quite surprised.
“Friend, please stop for now.”
An aged voice appeared. The voice contained an Emperor level might.
It was clear that the people here had already sensed the terror of An Zheng, and the people who had attacked previously already knew, if An Zheng wanted to retaliate, how could they still have the chance?
A figure that seemed to be drifting in the air suddenly appeared abouundred meters away from An Zheng. Of course, An Zheng could tell that it was not the body of the person nor was it a clone, but a projection formed from the Great Cultivation Power. This person’s body was perhaps still very, very far away from here.
The area of 100 000 Cold Mountain was too big, and the deeper they went, the more unusual it became. It was simply too easy to hide someone.
“Excuse me, friend, what are you looking for?”
The white-haired old man asked.
An Zheng floated in midair and replied: “My things.”
Just these four words made the old man frown. “Friend, you said that it’s yours. How can we be sure?”
“Why do I need your confirmation?”
This sentence was even more overbearing, the old man’s temper was obviously provoked, but because he was unsure of An Zheng’s strength, he did not dare act rashly.
“Friend, my clan’s 100 000 Cold Mountain has protected this place for too long. Everything here concerns the rise and fall of my clan, so I hope that you can tell me the truth. If not, then this old man can only reject you.”
“Then I’ll say it again. What I want back is mine, it has nothing to do with you.”
“Everything in the 100 000 Cold Mountain is related to us.”
An Zheng raised his chin slightly, “If you continue to stop me, I will make sure that everything in the 100 000 Cold Mountain has nothing to do with your Bai Family.”
Hearing this, the old man’s expression changed.
“How do you know?”
He asked harshly, “You still say that you are not scheming against my clan?!”
An Zheng asked in his heart: “How far is it?”
Heaven’s Eye’s voice immediately appeared.
[Master, the bronze door is less than 500 kilometers to the northeast and it has started to flicker and disappear. From the feeling of the key, it will disappear in at most an hour. The next time it appears, it will be impossible to determine where it will be.]
“Yes.”
An Zheng looked at the old man: “You don’t want to move?”
The old man snorted: “In this 100 000 Cold Mountain, there has never been anyone who dared to be so impudent in front of my clan.”
“You talk too much.”
An Zheng suddenly stretched out his hand. On a large mountain hundreds of miles away, an elderly man who was sitting cross-legged under a snowy pine suddenly felightening sensation on his neck.
A few hundred kilometers away, An Zheng raised his hand up and caught hold of the emperor level one stage old man. He casually pressed him back down on the ground and then put him down, “Don’t disturb me again.
