Chapter 143: Finally Finding the Treasure Land

Chapter 143: Finally Finding the Treasure Land

Seven days later, Lin Fan discovered a "magma" river, and the result was just as he had understood: this was the Sun River, steaming with wisps of solar essence.

Here, he met the Sun Clan. Their numbers were not large, and some of them still bore injuries, obviously having just experienced a fierce battle.

Moreover, this region lacked powerful experts; there were no beings who had ignited their divine fire, nor were there any major religious orthodoxies.

When they saw Lin Fan's arrival, every single one of them was very vigilant. After all, these people were not in a good state right now.

"I have no malicious intent, I just want to ask you about a few things," Lin Fan said calmly.

Afterward, he even treated several heavily injured individuals, gaining the friendship of the Sun Clan.

He learned that shortly before, this clan had been attacked by the Golden Crow Clan, suffering heavy losses.

"At the end of the Sun River, there is a Purple Mountain. The river water flows out from the void at the peak of the mountain. Unfortunately, that place is currently occupied by the Golden Crow Clan."

An old man sighed, because the solar essence in that place was the densest, rolling forth in surges, making it most suitable for fire-attribute beings to Cultivate.

At the same time, Lin Fan also learned that this clan had been defeated in ancient times and fled to the Lower Realm, all to preserve a seed of fire.

However, what people did not expect was that the Golden Crow Clan was unyielding; a portion of them chased into the Lower Realm, took root here, and confronted them to this day.

Hearing this, Lin Fan was shocked. Just how deep was the enmity and grievance between these two clans to actually continue into this era? It was too ruthless!

According to his speculation, the Taiyin physique and Sun physique of later generations might have a great connection with these two clans, and they might even be their descendants.

In the end, Lin Fan left, deciding to go and take a look at that Purple Mountain, and reached the end of the river.

Half a month later, at the end of the river.

"This is…" Lin Fan was shocked, gazing into the distance, and saw a miraculous scene.

He saw a Purple Mountain several thousand meters tall standing abruptly on the earth, towering into the firmament, majestic and upright, extremely magnificent.

In that place, purple mist billowed upward, resembling bursts of dragon roars, with extraordinary wondrous phenomena.

"Could it be…" Having captured something, he held a star compass, flew high enough into the sky, and measured the trend of the entire earth veins.

Around that huge Purple Mountain, there were a total of nine mountain ridges, all lying horizontally with it as the center, very regularly guarding a pearl.

"Such a powerful 'grand momentum'! Nine Dragons guarding a pearl, exhausting the ultimate mysteries of heaven and earth changes!"

Shocked, Lin Fan, who had learned some geomancer methods, naturally understood just how rare and magical such a terrain was; it was simply a holy land for cultivation.

You must know that was the essence Qi of nine dragon veins, all surging toward the center. Just how dense would that level be? Thinking about it, cultivating here would definitely yield twice the result with half the effort.

In fact, even the locations of the Upper Realm's immortal orthodoxies did not have such a spectacular "grand momentum", with at most three or four dragon veins gathered together.

Of course, the heaven and earth essence Qi of the Three Thousand Provinces was already many times denser than the Lower Realm Eight Regions, so there was no need to arrange such a terrain to be sufficient to support the cultivation of an entire major religion.

However, what shocked him even more was yet to come. Looking up through the layers of clouds and mist, the Taiyin and Sun Rivers flowed out from the same Void Realm.

The Taiyin River was pitch black like ink, piercingly cold with ice, and black mist churned, resembling the River Styx from Hell.

The Sun River shone with brilliant golden light, blazing like a sun, just like a divine kingdom of its Origin.

These were two different rivers, both shrouded by Dao runes, containing terrifying power, boiling and surging, cascading down like a natural disaster tsunami.

Moreover, the confluence of the two rivers emitted surging Chaos Qi, submerging everything, allowing no living beings to survive or approach.

Even the Golden Crow Clan occupying this place only cultivated near the Purple Mountain and did not dare to ascend the peak of the mountain.

"Hahaha, I've finally found it. It's exactly the same as described on the animal skin: Yin and Yang intersecting, Nine Dragons appearing together, and Chaos surging."

Lin Fan was so excited that he danced with joy. It had taken him a full three months to find this place, which was quite not easy.

Now, he only needed to open the star gate of the Chaos Small World to find the Reincarnation Immortal Seed.

However, at this moment, he fell into a dilemma. The two great rivers surrounded the entire Purple Mountain, and no living being could cross over or resist the power of supreme Yin and supreme Yang.

Because this was not the impure Taiyin and Sun Rivers he had seen before; what was before his eyes was the ancestral root, the source of the rivers, and its terrifying degree far exceeded the tributaries.

Even if an Upper Realm sect master came, they might not necessarily be able to withstand that kind of fluctuation.

Taiyin and Sun were the two most original rules between heaven and earth, evolved from the Dao. Opposing yet complementary, even the Five Elements that constituted all things originated from Yin and Yang Qi.

"How should I ascend that Purple Mountain?" Lin Fan muttered to himself.

As for those Golden Crows guarding here to Cultivate, he did not look down on them or take them to heart; at worst, he could call for backup, or use a forbidden artifact to clear the way.

Moreover, the Golden Crows did not occupy the entire region. On the other side of the mountain, where the Taiyin River flowed, they avoided it like the plague.

Taiyin water was the coldest and most Yin substance in the world, which could extinguish the true fire of the sun. For that clan, it was a life-threatening poison and something that must never be touched.

"Crack!"

Lin Fan placed a precious artifact on the Taiyin River. In just an instant, the runes on the small boat dimmed, a very thick layer of ice formed on the surface, and it shattered into slag.

"Such terrifying Taiyin power; even Divine Rank Magical Artifacts cannot defend against it," he said, feeling alarmed.

This place was extraordinary, causing one's Soul to palpitate along with it, filled with awe.

"Had I known, I would have borrowed Little Yueyue's Taiyin Moon Wheel. That is a supreme treasure forged from Taiyin stone, and perhaps one could use it to cross this river."

This was not a joke; Taiyin stone was a rare treasure nurtured within the Taiyin River in the first place, and it could be considered of the same lineage, at least it would not be destroyed.

"Could it be that I have to return the way I came, borrow the supreme treasure, and then open the star gate?" Lin Fan muttered, then shook his head. It was too much of a waste of time; a round trip would take at least two months.

Suddenly, he thought of something: the material of the golden animal skin was extraordinary, and it was also the key to opening the star gate. If he used it as a boat, he could presumably cross safely.

No sooner said than done.

"Whoosh!"

The next moment, the animal skin unfolded, blooming with brilliant golden light, and it eerily floated on the Taiyin River without sinking or being frozen to destruction.

"Hahaha, just as expected!"

Lin Fan was extremely happy and steadily leaped onto it. The terrifying Taiyin Qi was isolated, blocking the ripple-like Dao patterns.

Soon, he reached the opposite bank of the Taiyin River and ascended to the foot of the Purple Mountain.

As for that animal skin, he always draped it over his body, because Taiyin and Sun water dripped from the sky from time to time, making it fraught with danger.

If one was not careful, every single drop here was enough to kill the life of an expert who had ignited their divine fire, let alone a kid like him at the Inscription Realm Perfection.

"Phew, I've finally made it up," Lin Fan let out a long breath, overlooking the path he had taken, and couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

The Purple Mountain was majestic and imposing, yet it was filled with danger everywhere, and the water droplets floating down from above at any time were extremely fatal.

It took him a full half-day before he safely ascended this terrifying mountain.

At the same time, it wasn't that he hadn't thought about going deep from the underground of the nine dragon veins and slicing open the Purple Mountain to enter the interior, but he quickly rejected this idea.

Once he dug into the Taiyin River or Sun River, the water would backflow, and he would undoubtedly die.
