642 One Step, Lonely Goose; One Step, Demon (1)
On the pitch-black abyssal sea, the leaf ship moved extremely fast, almost ten times faster than before. It strode crazily, as though it was afraid of wasting Xu Qing’s time.
When it sensed Xu Qing’s gloomy expression, it sped up again.
After learning about what the Smoke Race was doing, Xu Qing gave up on the idea of going to Green Fog Mountain. He was going to rush to Mount Morning Glow immediately. At the same time, a huge haze rose in his heart.
On one hand, he was worried about the war in the two major war zones in the north and west. On the other hand, the information from the Smoke Race made it very difficult for him not to associate it with the suspected culprit in the jade slip given by the Palace Master.
“The matters on the battlefield aren’t something I can control… The only thing I can do is to complete the mission given by the Palace Master.” After a long time, Xu Qing muttered to himself.
Just like that, time flowed by and several days passed. In these few days, there were more streams of light in the large net in the sky than before. From this, Xu Qing could determine that the war in the north and west should have reached an extremely intense level.
He sighed softly and looked at the distant world.
Finally, on the fourth night, Mount Morning Glow was reflected in Xu Qing’s eyes.
This mountain was very special. Its color wasn’t black but rainbow-colored.
At first glance, it looked like it was pieced together, but it was actually a single entity.
Moreover, its size clearly surpassed any mountain Xu Qing had seen on his way here. It stood on the abyssal sea and shot into the sky. The part above the surface of the sea was almost 100,000 feet tall.
Under the moonlight, the rainbow colors of Mount Morning Glow were reflected in all directions, forming a gorgeous halo.
Xu Qing could vaguely see its majestic part below the abyssal sea that was even more vast.
As he got closer, Xu Qing felt waves of pressure spreading out from the mountain and enveloping the surroundings. At the same time, the solar wind was also extremely powerful here. Wherever it passed, not only would the whimpering sound of the wind echo, but countless spatial cracks would also appear. They quickly healed and formed again, repeating this cycle.
Looking at this mountain, Xu Qing felt a little complicated as well as rare waves of uneasiness. These emotions blended together, ultimately forming a feeling of anxiety and worry.
It was the mission given by the Palace Master, but more importantly… his parents’ graves were there.
Xu Qing stood on the leaf ship and stared at Mount Morning Glow. After a long time, he suppressed all his thoughts and took a deep breath. He walked out of the leaf ship and moved toward Mount Morning Glow.
As for the leaf ship… almost at the instant Xu Qing left, it sank. Afraid that it would disturb Xu Qing if it left too late, it dived into the depths of the abyssal sea in the blink of an eye and left rapidly.
The head on the stone lion’s tail looked at this scene from afar with an intense envy…
After about fifteen minutes, Xu Qing reached Mount Morning Glow. He felt an invisible barrier surrounding the surroundings of Mount Morning Glow.
This was the array formation of Mount Morning Glow’s Sword Holding Court.
This array formation prevented entry to anyone who wasn’t allowed to enter. Even if the Sword Holders from the other provinces wanted to come, they had to have authority. Only the Sword Holders from their province could enter.
Only by spending battle merits to exchange for the qualifications to enter the secret land could one truly enter unimpeded.
However, to the current Xu Qing, this barrier no longer existed. The authority of the jade slip given by the Palace Master was so high that it was as if the Palace Master had personally arrived.
Hence, his arrival wouldn’t cause any fluctuations in the array formation, nor would there be any secret places that could obstruct him.
“I’ll complete the investigation before searching for my parents’ graves.”
Determination appeared in Xu Qing’s eyes. He took out the jade pendant given by the Palace Master and walked into the array formation on Mount Morning Glow without causing any fluctuations.
The instant his footsteps landed on Mount Morning Glow, ripples rose in Xu Qing’s heart. A mysterious bloodline connection made his breathing hurried and he felt a piercing pain in his heart.
That was his bloodline resonating with his parents’.
With his cultivation, he could sense his bloodline. It was also this perception that made Xu Qing instinctively press his hand against his chest.
“Father… Mother…” Xu Qing mumbled, his eyes a little red.
In the eyes of outsiders, Xu Qing was a decisive person who killed and attacked ruthlessly. Moreover, his emotions weren’t very obvious. However, this was forced by life and wasn’t his nature.
Now, on this Mount Morning Glow, the scenes of Peerless City involuntarily appeared in his mind.
After a long time, Xu Qing lowered his head and completely concealed his aura. He also suppressed the ripples in his heart. He knew that he had to complete the Palace Master’s mission first.
He silently walked up the mountain.
There were over a hundred palaces of various sizes built near the top of the mountain.
The materials of these palaces were all made of stone from Mount Morning Glow, so they were also rainbow-colored. Moreover, they were built in an imposing manner, and emitted holiness under the moonlight.
Compared to the Yinghuang Province, the Sword Holding Court here was much larger in scale. The number of Sword Holders guarding here also surpassed the Yinghuang Province’s Sword Holding Court.
However, in this wartime, 99% of the Sword Holders in the Sword Holding Court of Mount Morning Glow had already headed to the battlefield. As Xu Qing walked, he felt that this huge Sword Holding Court was extremely quiet.
Xu Qing saw less than 30 Sword Holders here. He also secretly noticed that most of these Sword Holders were patrolling and their expressions were extremely vigilant. Clearly, they had heard of the external world transmitting messages that someone wanted to attack the Sword Holding Court.
