Chapter 627: Distant Cousin

The teleportation ray flashed by, and when Zhong Yue and the others touched the ground moments later, they found themselves situated on a precipice grander than any they had ever seen.

Divine birds streaked across the sky, and divine beasts galloped on the grasslands. The spiritual energy in the place was even a hundred times denser than on the twin planets!

They were standing on the summit of the Bi An Precipice; there was a grand palace a distance away from them with many towers and palaces stacked over one another. From afar, the whole palace looked like a horse-dragon with its head rising high up in the sky.

“There are nice treasures in the palace!”

In Zhong Yue’s psyche ocean, Xin Huo looked at the Bi An Precipice through his divine eyes and said solemnly, “Amazing, there are at least a hundred emperor-level divine weapons guarding the palace! This little Bi An Precipice, why does it have such strong defences?”

Zhong Yue was shocked. For even someone like Xin Huo to notice, then just how strong would the defences need to be?

Over a hundred emperor-level divine weapons, what are they guarding against? Zhong Yue couldn’t help but to wonder.

Then, an old granny tottered her way toward them, she bowed and said, “Masters, you are back.”

Bi and An nodded together, they said, “They are our guests, Granny Shan should treat them well.”

The old granny’s eyes opened a slit and bright rays flashed across her greyish pupil as she glanced over them; seconds later, her eyes returned to normal and she said, “Dear guests, please follow me.”

Zhong Yue and the others were shocked. Granny Shan looked no different to any other commoners out there, but the light in her eyes was no lie. But she was just too old, so old that even Zhong Yue and the others could sense the life force leaking from her body like water flowing through a sieve.

Her days were coming to an end, all of her cultivation base and power, psyche and arcane energy were slowly collapsing \. Not much time was left for her to live, perhaps, only a few years at most.

“This Granny Shan is a Deity Overlord.” Old Man Six Paths conducted his voice to them and said, “I am very clear of such a strong aura, it can only come from a Deity Overlord. Hmmm, I can still remember the taste of those like her, incredibly delicious, but also extremely hard to digest.”

Shi Buyi heard him and was shocked greatly, Just exactly who is this old guy? He’s even devoured a Deity Overlord’s corpse?

Zhong Yue calmed himself, if Granny Shan was a Deity Overlord and was only just guarding Bi and An’s home, then exactly were these two brothers?

Granny Shan led them into the palace, while Bi and An exchanged a look and said with a smile, “Junior Martial Brother Zhong, my fellow friends, you may stay for a few days. Please excuse us as we still have matters to attend to. We shall further discuss our plans a few days later.”

Zhong Yue cleared his throat and said, “Senior martial brothers, you still haven’t told us how to avoid Realm Lord’s inspection…”

The two brothers laughed in unison, “Junior martial brother, please be patient for a little longer!”

Granny Shan was expressionless, her voice was cold and hoarse as she said, “Dear guests, this way please.”

Zhong Yue and the others followed her, along the way, Granny Shan assigned them each a palace of their own. These palaces were all well-equipped, there were the bedroom, cultivation room, alchemy room, a leisure garden and many other facilities.

After Granny Shan left, Zhong Yue and the others gathered together. They sat down in the lotus position but did not say a word, instead it was their psyche that were reverberating around as they communicated through mental transmissions.

“This Granny Shan is dying, she won’t live for long.” Old Man Six Paths said, “But to have such a strong Deity Overlord as the guardian of their home, those two are no ordinary cultivators.”

Shi Buyi nodded, “Master Zhong, they seem to value you a lot. They only addressed us due out of politeness but called you their junior martial brother instead. It is you they were always talking to. Do you know them?”

Zhong Yue shook his head, “The furthest I have been before this is the Kun Lun Realm and the Returning Ruins; if I have never been here, how would I know them?”

“Then they must be seeking something from you, there must be some underlying reason for this!” Jun Sixie concluded decisively.

Zhong Yue answered mutedly, “We shall see soon.”

Suddenly, Qiu Jin’er said, “Senior martial brother, I just sensed a spot that is particularly dense in spiritual energy that would also make it easier for us to attain the Dao. It is the best place to cultivate and fix the flaws in our cultivation from the Ancestral Star. We will experience a great leap in power if we can cultivate there!”

“Is there really such a place?”

They were all surprised and overjoyed, Qiu Jin’er held the Innate Wood Spirit Body, her sensitivity toward spiritual energy was higher than others’. If she said there was such a place, then it was probably true.

The Dao in the Prison Realm was complete, although it may feel like a norm to the living beings here, for Ancestral Star cultivators like themselves, they would see incredible benefits in cultivating here!

Zhong Yue stood up and said while smiling, “Then, let’s go and have a look!”

He couldn’t wait any longer, the Six Paths Fruit was already in his Dao Yi Realm, hovering above the Pan Gu God while the Pan Gu God gleaned and attained the knowledge within the divine fruit.

If he was able to find a good location to cultivate, he would be able to attain many more insights in the Six Paths!

Just as they walked out of the palace, Granny Shan suddenly walked out of the void in front of them, she asked indifferently, “Dear guests, where are you heading to?”

Zhong Yue clasped his hands and replied politely, “Granny, we are planning to tour ourselves around for a good location to study, I wonder if you can let us through?”

“There are many forbidden areas in the masters’ Bi An Precipice, as long as you don’t intrude into those places, I can bring you around.” Granny Shan replied.

“Thank you.” Zhong Yue then furtively glanced over at Qiu Jin’er, and the young lady led the way toward the location she was referring to.

Soon, they walked out of the palace and reached the precipice. Suddenly, Qiu Jin’er took a sharp turn and flew down to the bottom of the precipice.

However, there was a strange force that pulled them toward the summit of the precipice, causing them to hover above the ground as they flew further.

They traveled thousands of miles and finally reached a vast ocean; there were many marvelous sea creatures unheard of shuttling and playing in the waters. Some were leaping in and out of the sea surface, some dove into the deepest region of the ocean, some were casually floating while some were simply cultivating.

Shi Buyi couldn’t help himself and huge lion head grew out from his neck, he gnawed on a mountainous octopus and swallowed it.

“Ahh, its taste, its texture, how delicious! And it is even better than any other medicinal pellets I have ever eaten!” Shi Buyi praised.

But Granny Shan suddenly gave a cold snort, “There will be no second time.”

Shi Buyi was just planning to consume a second one, and quickly stopped when he heard that.

Qiu Jin’er was still flying. Another hour flashed by, and the tip of a giant golden flower bud slowly rose above the horizon. Then, they saw many golden flower buds floating on the ocean surface.

These flower buds were at least 30,000 feet tall, their petals wide and huge with sharp tips through the firmament. The spiritual energy gathered at the tip of the flower buds and formed into auspicious clouds around them.

What was even more astonishing was that these flower buds come in pairs.

There were 98 flowers with a total of 196 flower buds, yet none of which were blooming.

From far, there were streams of goldy totem patterns curling around the flower buds, these totem patterns were glimmering in golden rays and thus, illuminating the flower buds with a pure golden color.

However, when they drew closer, they realized that it was not only the golden lights, but the flower buds themselves that were already golden in color. They seemed to be completely devoid of any impurities within.

As the spiritual energy was literally blowing right into their faces, it was even stronger and thicker than that of the Bi An Palace!

Yet, there were many strong forces all over the place stopping them from getting any closer.

“This is a forbidden area with restricted access only, you are prohibited from entering.” Granny Shan said frigidly, “Please leave now, or I will show no mercy.”

Qiu Jin’er pleaded, “Granny, can you please consider it? We are Senior Martial Brother Bi and Senior Martial Brother An’s guests, why don’t you ask them first? If they allow it, we will go in and cultivate for a few days, but if they don’t, we will leave.”

Granny Shan looked at her little cute face and before reluctantly replaying her request to her masters. Moments later, she said, “Masters have agreed for you to stay, but you only have ten days. After ten days, you will have to leave.”

Qiu Jin’er was overjoyed and quickly thanked her.

Granny Shan’s wrinkled face grew older as she raised her hand and lifted off the seals for Zhong Yue and the others to enter, “No need to thank me, I am just following my orders. If the masters didn’t allow it, then I will not hesitate to kill each and every one of you right here if you dare to take any step further into the forbidden area.”

…

Meanwhile, in the Bi An Palace.

Bi and An was kneeling on the ground facing a godly statue with three burning incense sticks in front of them. The statue had no face, but its domineering aura seemed to replete the hall.

The hall was silent except for the sounds of the burning incense sticks, then suddenly, the goldy statue shuddered as if there was a great force descending down from the void onto the statue.

Bi and An bowed their heads and they said, “We are sorry to trouble you, father. But we have recently met with a distant cousin, the blood that flows in him is similar to ours, that’s why we came looking for father.”

“Distant cousin?” The godly statue asked, its voice trembled the space around, “Where is he? Show me!”

At that point in time, Zhong Yue has just walked into the midst of the golden flower buds, and suddenly, his heart tensed up, his muscles bulged out, his scalp tingled and his blood turned cold. He felt a pair of eyes staring at him, stronger than anything he had ever felt. He quickly turned back but saw nothing, but his heart still thumped in terror.

In the hall, the godly statue then said, “He is indeed your distant cousin, but he is…”
