Chapter 262: Rushing Towards The Planted Cultivators’ Mountain

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The death rate on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain was as high as 90 percent. The news that Di Jiu, a newcomer on the mountain, was meeting his doom did not cause any sensation.

Everything at the foot of the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain went on as usual.

Chu Ju had not come to the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain with the intention to increase his lifespan. He was well aware of his own capabilities, and this mountain was not one he could climb. Given his current strength, climbing this mountain would only lead to his death. The reason he had come was to gain some insight into the order at the foot of the mountain. A lot of people said that the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain possessed some kind of time order that could allow one to leapfrog and win battles after gaining even the slightest insight into the order.

Chu Ju had come here to try his luck. After all, he would regret it if he did not get to the foot of the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain when he had made a trip to the planet.

However, he was completely dumbfounded when he stood at the foot of the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain and saw Di Jiu, who stood erect on the mountain. “Why would Young Master Red Embellishment Di Jiu meet his doom on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain?”

He immediately became excited. Others might not know that Di Jiu possessed many quality items, but he knew. Di Jiu had obtained 200 spirit meridians at the spirit vein canyon. These spirit meridians were either high-grade or supreme-grade.

Should he head up to the mountain?

Chu Ju started to hesitate. The spirit meridians might be good, but his life was important as well. Could he do this when even Young Master Red Embellishment had met his doom on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain?

After hesitating for the span of several breaths, Chu Ju made a decision. If opportunities could be obtained so easily, they would be called something else. He had to head up and try his luck, for there was a possibility that he would obtain the spirit meridians.

“Hold up!” a voice suddenly called out to Chu Ju. “I noticed that you didn’t intend to head up earlier. You only decided to head up after seeing something.”

When he looked back, Chu Ju saw a long-haired man whose cultivation level he could not see. Purely based on his aura, Chu Ju guessed that the man was at least at the fifth-stage Pioneer Sea Realm, while he was only at the ninth-stage Void Spirit Realm himself.

“I simply wished to try my luck and see if I could climb the 100 steps,” said Chu Ju hurriedly with respect.

The long-haired man grunted coldly and said, “You have one more chance. I will search your soul if you refuse to tell me the truth this time.”

Chu Ju shuddered. He did not believe that the man was lying. One could only resign oneself to their fate if someone killed them on the Small Central Planet.

However, he would not let this long-haired man take advantage of him in this manner. He made a decision quickly and said loudly, “Senior, Young Master Red Embellishment met his doom on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain. Within his ring are 200 spirit meridians completely comprised of supreme-grade and high-grade spirit meridians.”

“What?” The long-haired man regretted his decision. He had not expected that Chu Ju would speak so loudly. 200 spirit meridians, all of them either high-grade or supreme-grade? Even the strongest power in the True Dominion would not possess so many spirit meridians.

After finishing his sentence, Chu Ju quickly retreated. The long-haired man was no longer taking heed of Chu Ju. His gaze landed on Di Jiu.

He did not know who Young Master Red Embellishment was, but he had heard of this name many times. The red embellished saber on the back was Young Master Red Embellishment’s signature weapon. A cultivator carrying a red embellished saber on his back, his head lifted and looking at the mountain peak, was standing still 100 steps away from the foot of the mountain. That had to be Young Master Red Embellishment.

The long-haired man immediately rushed up the mountain without hesitation. 200 spirit meridians, all supreme-grade or high-grade, were worth this risk. After all, he had come to the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain with the intention to climb it.

The rest of the cultivators, who had heard the speech, were no longer in the mood to stay at the foot of the mountain and gain insight either. Nearly 90 percent of the cultivators stood up. Only a scant minority started to debate if they should head up and try their luck as well.

Information disseminated from the foot of the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain. In a very short time, the rumor that Young Master Red Embellishment had met his doom on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain spread to the rest of the Small World Planet. It was also said that Young Master Red Embellishment possessed nearly 900 supreme-grade spirit meridians...

...

10,000 miles away from the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain, a lady in light purple robes was staring at a level-eight Yellow Elm Plant in the center of a swamp.

Standing beside the purple-robed lady was a blue-robed lady, whose cultivation level was much weaker than the former’s.

“Moshuang, this Yellow Elm Plant is useful. I will pick it later. Remember, once I can’t withstand the suction of the swamp, use this rope to pull me back...” Suddenly, the purple-robed lady saw two more cultivators rushing towards the North. This was the third time she saw someone heading in that direction.

“Yes, Senior Sister Qingyi,” replied the blue-robed lady without hesitation. Her face was severely disfigured.

The two ladies were naturally Han Qingyi and Jing Moshuang. By the time Han Qingyi had brought Jing Moshuang to the five-colored teleportation stretch below the Small World Planet, Di Jiu and company had already entered the planet.

“Hold up...” Han Qingyi said before landing directly in front of the cultivator rushing over and stopping him by force.

The cultivator was enraged when he saw someone blocking his way. He immediately realized that the person blocking his path was Han Qingyi.

Everyone who had been to the Five Continent Square knew who Han Qingyi was. She was a top-notch genius of the True Dominion. Even the five large sects of the Small Central World had to be cautious around her.

There was, in fact, a rule on the Small Central Planet that forbade True Dominion Geniuses from entering it. However, it was a rule people never obeyed. Everyone just remained silent and turned a blind eye to the situation.

“Greetings, Han Qingyi.” This cultivator was only at the first-stage Pioneer Sea Realm. Hence, he dared not be disrespectful to Han Qingyi.

Han Qingyi nodded her head. “I noticed that many people are heading to the north, and so are you. What happened?”

“It is said that Young Master Red Embellishment, Di Jiu, died on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain. In his possession are nearly 1,000 supreme-grade spirit meridians...” the cultivator said hastily.

Moshuang’s body swayed as she stood beside Han Qingyi. Then, she rushed frantically towards the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain.

Han Qingyi knew that Jing Moshuang was anxious because Di Jiu was her cultivation partner. It would be strange if Jing Moshuang was not anxious. Di Jiu had met his doom on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain after all.

She was just as anxious. Di Jiu possessed a Plane Split Talisman. Her motive for having Jing Moshuang by her side was to pressure Di Jiu into giving her the talisman. How could she possibly allow anyone else to seize Di Jiu’s ring now that he had died on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain?

Han Qingyi’s body flashed as she headed towards the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain. Thanks to her ninth-stage Ekayāna Tripod Realm strength, she reached Jing Moshuang’s side shortly and carried her with a wave of her hand.

The foot of the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain was crowded by the time Han Qingyi and Jing Moshuang arrived. Jing Moshuang spotted Di Jiu immediately. At the moment, there were more than 100 cultivators behind him, almost all of them planted on the mountain. However, there was still a steady stream of cultivators rushing up the mountain.

Han Qingyi remained very calm. What attracted her to Di Jiu was not his spirit meridians but the Plane Split Talisman in his possession.

“Thank you for your care all this while, Sister Qingyi. Without your help, I would not have attained the sixth-stage Void Spirit Realm in such a short time. My debt to you is perhaps something I will never be able to repay.” Jing Moshuang bowed in front of Han Qingyi before turning and rushing towards the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain.

The surrounding cultivators were all alarmed by Jing Moshuang’s demeanor. Although the number of people gathered there kept increasing, only a scant minority would climb the mountain. The majority was hoping that someone would obtain Di Jiu’s ring. The real battle would begin the moment the ring left the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain.

Han Qingyi sighed when she saw Jing Moshuang rushing up the mountain. She chose to remain at the foot of the mountain instead. The Planted Cultivators’ Mountain was extremely infamous for its high death rate. She might be a True Dominion Genius, but even she dared not climb the mountain without making several preparations. She shared the same thought as the majority of the cultivators there. She would just wait for someone to bring Di Jiu’s ring down the mountain.

At the very least, Jing Moshuang was her cultivation companion. Although her motive for choosing Jing Moshuang had not been pure, she still wished that Jing Moshuang would be the one to obtain the ring. She knew very well that it would be nearly impossible, and the probability of her being planted on the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain was more than 95 percent.

Han Qingyi couldn’t believe Di Jiu’s luck. Being liked by an impassioned lady like Jing Moshuang was extremely rare. Jing Moshuang did not want a man to obtain cultivating resources for her, which happened seldom in the Cultivation World those days.

She suspected that among all the cultivators rushing towards Di Jiu, only Jing Moshuang was doing so without any intention of seizing the ring. She only wanted to carry Di Jiu down the mountain.

At the moment, Jing Moshuang thought of nothing else except carrying Di Jiu down the Planted Cultivators’ Mountain. Everything else did not matter.

Di Jiu was the only person she knew who had saved people without any motive. He had saved her a few times and had even saved Shanshan, He Tai and Yu Jie. Was there anyone else who saved people without any motive like Di Jiu?

She had only taken several steps when she felt deep sorrow. Jing Moshuang lifted her head in despair and looked at Di Jiu, who was a few steps away from her. Then, she stopped moving.

These few steps felt like an insurmountable chasm. Jing Moshuang looked at Di Jiu’s back in a daze, thinking how great it would be to be able to take Di Jiu away from this place. She despised cultivating and hated dealing with human politics even more.
