Chapter 432: The Appearance
Chapter 432: The Appearance
Peach Valley Secret Realm.
This secret realm was located in a valley, with cliffs towering several light-years high on both sides. The annihilation wind blew year-round, and even Essence Spirit Realm experts would be blown to ashes.
The only entrances to the valley were at its mouth and tail. The mouth, 'Peach Source Fortress,' was occupied by Boundless Mountain, while the tail, 'Peach Blossom Source,' was in the hands of the Azure Emperor Palace.
Naturally, the Peach Valley Secret Realm became a battleground for disciples of Boundless Mountain and the Azure Emperor Palace.
Even core disciples had fallen within it.
On this day, a black dragon and a white ape appeared.
"Is this the 'Peach Source Fortress'?"
Fang Xing stared at the pitch-black city before him, a solemn expression on his dragon face.
"Indeed, this Peach Source Fortress is a mighty weapon forged by several Great Virtuosos of Boundless Mountain. Even Celestial Immortal Realm experts can only withstand it for a short while. Ordinary Essence Spirit Realm cultivators would perish in droves."
The white ape, Wu Qi, spoke casually.
Just then, a stream of light flew in from the outside world, revealing a person—none other than Song Zhong!
"Master!"
Song Zhong bowed respectfully, then was casually stored by Fang Xing into a spatial equipment.
This spatial equipment was obtained by Fang Xing using Merit Points from Boundless Mountain. It was similar to the Boundless Demon Palace, with a limited internal void but capable of storing living beings.
"This is..."
Wu Qi asked in confusion.
"This is a human pet I acquired," Fang Xing explained. "I'm planning to use him to lure out a Demon Prince from the Azure Emperor Palace..."
"But your human pet is already at the Essence Spirit Realm. How can you bring him into the Peach Valley Secret Realm?" Wu Qi asked, puzzled.
"There's no need to bring him in. Just hiding him outside will do," Fang Xing said nonchalantly.
Recently, he had been practicing the Break Causality Secret Technique.
This technique could be used on oneself and others.
After 'blocking' Song Zhong, the Cause and Effect Line was still 99% connected, pointing back to himself.
After all, he was the true culprit behind Fu Shan's brother's death!
Once he entered the Peach Valley Secret Realm, the Demon Prince would surely follow. How could he not enter?
No!
The other party would only feel more at ease, as there were no Essence Spirit Realm cultivators in the Peach Valley Secret Realm, ensuring safety.
"Tsk tsk... You're quite sinister, but I like it."
Wu Qi clicked his tongue, "Last time, Kunyuan Son died in the Peach Valley Secret Realm. If we can take revenge, we'll definitely win the favor of those big shots above. Maybe we'll even be accepted as disciples..."
Being taken as a disciple by a Celestial Immortal Demon was the dream of many core members.
After all, although they had the opportunity to challenge the Celestial Immortal Demon Realm, the chances were slim.
Among hundreds of core members, it was unlikely for even one Celestial Immortal Demon to emerge.
Unless they were an Emperor's Son, the chances of becoming a Demon Emperor were slightly better.
Those who could reach the heights of Timekeeper were few and far between, and becoming a disciple of a Celestial Demon was already satisfying.
"Haha... I don't have such intentions. Getting more peaches is enough."
Fang Xing laughed heartily.
...
Fang Xing and Wu Qi, both core members of Boundless Mountain, headed towards the Peach Source Fortress for a brief inspection.
After passing through layer upon layer of restrictions, they arrived in the Peach Valley Secret Realm.
Inside, the realm was lush and verdant, with mist enveloping the surroundings. Numerous mountains and lakes were vaguely visible.
What was even more surprising was the fragrance of peach blossoms in the air.
Fang Xing flapped his wings and arrived at the edge of a jade-like lake.
Along the lakeshore, a peach grove flourished, and many branches were already laden with abundant fruits.
"Tsk tsk... The peaches in the Peach Valley Secret Realm are the best."
Wu Qi plucked one and took a bite, "Sweet... Try it. This white peach has no special effects; it just tastes good. Compared to the Azure and Crimson Peach, it's far inferior..."
Whoosh!
Fang Xing opened his mouth, and a whirlwind seemed to form within his dragon maw, creating a vortex.
Countless white peaches were sucked in, like a dragon drawing water, and disappeared into his mouth, barely making a mouthful.
Crunch! Crunch!
His sharp teeth bit down, and the sweet and juicy peach juice exploded between his lips and teeth, causing his eyes to light up, "Indeed, it's delicious..."
"Haha, these are just ordinary ones... They're everywhere in the Peach Valley Secret Realm."
"Another ninety billion miles ahead is the core zone... In the core zone, there are scattered Immortal Peach trees, and in the middle, there's one that's a Heavenly Spirit Root with astonishing power. We can't get close to its main body... But according to the agreement, this Heavenly Spirit Root Immortal Peach tree occasionally throws out Azure and Crimson Peaches, allowing us to compete with the Azure Emperor Palace for them..."
"Throw out?"
Fang Xing became interested.
"You wouldn't expect a Heavenly Spirit Root that can produce Azure and Crimson Peaches to still be an ordinary tree, would you? That Heavenly Spirit Root Immortal Peach tree is the only one in the Peach Valley Secret Realm that has broken through restrictions and is unaffected by strength. It's rumored to be incredibly powerful, and although it can't move, within its coverage area, it possesses the strength of an Essence Spirit Tyrant..."
A hint of fear flashed across the white ape's face, "When this secret realm was discovered, the Tree Demon signed a contract with the Great Virtuosos of Boundless Mountain and the Azure Emperor Palace, agreeing not to harm mortal realm cultivators. When the Immortal Peaches mature, it occasionally throws some to us... But that Tree Demon has a terrible temperament. It will definitely choose to send Immortal Peaches when we meet with the Azure Emperor Palace's Demon Race, intentionally provoking a deadly fight for its amusement..."
"Amusement?"
Fang Xing chuckled, feeling a sense of helplessness.
For a Soul Core Tyrant, even a fight to the death between core members and a Demon Prince was merely a momentary amusement in their long and tedious lives.
"Then... let's go!"
He grabbed Bai Yuan and entered the Great Void Layer, then ascended to the Illusion Layer.
From a higher-dimensional perspective, he saw the entire 'Peach Valley Secret Realm', which was indeed vast beyond measure.
More importantly, at the center of the Peach Valley Secret Realm, there was an indescribably enormous Immortal Peach tree.
The tree stood tens of thousands of miles high, blocking out the sun.
Within the area covered by the Immortal Peach tree, even teleportation was a luxury.
"No wonder he's a Soul Core Tyrant."
Fang Xing didn't provoke anyone but instead teleported outside the area covered by the peach wood.
Shua! Shua!
Two human figures appeared, gazing at the enormous Immortal Peach tree that blotted out the sky.
"We're here, the core zone... Only by reaching the base of the tree will we have a chance to find the Azure and Crimson Immortal Peaches... Of course, the probability of encountering the Demons from Azure Emperor Palace is also the highest."
Wu Qi said, "When the fight breaks out, I'll take the lead, and you'll provide support. If we encounter someone we can't beat, remember to run with me."
"Mhm."
Fang Xing nodded. A monkey and a dragon entered the area covered by the peach wood.
The sky instantly turned a gloomy shade, as the tree's canopy blocked out the sky's radiance.
The mist around them thickened, and even with Fang Xing's divine sense, he could barely see through a ten-mile radius.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Fang Xing exclaimed in surprise, flicking his tail.
Whoosh!
Amidst the howling wind, a cloud of mist dispersed, revealing a green peach about the size of a fist.
This peach was roughly the size of a fist, with a sky-blue jade-like skin and some patterns on its surface.
Just a whiff of it made one feel refreshed and invigorated.
Without much hesitation, Fang Xing stuffed the green Immortal Peach into his mouth.
A taste completely different from the previous white peach filled his mouth, causing him to almost slip up, and the peach in his mouth vanished.
Instead, his dragon body felt warm, and the essence energy within him seemed to purify a little more.
"No wonder it's worth a thousand merit points; it's indeed exceptional."
Fang Xing was surprised. Such a wonder, for those with Mortal Blood, or even ordinary Human Cultivators, was a heaven-defying treasure that could change their fate.
Even for Demons with ordinary bloodlines, consuming one of these peaches would allow them to match those with Royal Bloodlines during the Mortal Realm! Even after advancing to the Soul Core Realm, consuming eight to ten more would allow them to purify their essence energy to Medium-grade, solidifying their foundation.
"Haha, Black Dragon, you're lucky. You came and got an Azure Immortal Peach... The first time I came here, I wandered around for a month and gained nothing. Then I encountered a few Demons from Azure Emperor Palace, fought them, and discovered a Crimson Immortal Peach..."
Wu Qi sighed.
"It seems... to get a Crimson Immortal Peach, we have to cause some trouble."
Fang Xing vaguely understood the malicious intent of a certain Tree Demon.
"That's the idea... When we encounter Demons from Azure Emperor Palace, we'll fight them, and we'll probably be close to finding a Crimson Immortal Peach."
Wu Qi spoke with a face full of admiration.
Fang Xing's thoughts stirred, and he looked towards a distant Heaven Pillar.
Although he didn't know how many tens of thousands of miles away it was, at this moment, the Heaven Pillar still stood tall and majestic, like a half-wall.
On the ancient, twisted wall, there was even a sharply defined face, as if observing everything...
...
As Fang Xing and the demon explored the Peach Valley Secret Realm, near the entrance of the Peach Blossom Source.
Fu Shan, a prince from the Azure Emperor Palace's Shooting Breath Division, also entered the Peach Valley Secret Realm.
In his hand, he held a nameless thread.
"The Cause and Effect Line... points towards the core direction of the Peach Valley Secret Realm... Song Zhong has already reached the Soul Core Realm, so it's impossible for him to enter... Moreover, a mere Elder from the Seven Slaughters Demon Palace doesn't have the qualifications to enter the Peach Valley Secret Realm... So... this is the real mastermind?"
Fu Shan felt a sense of danger.
As a high-level cultivator, he had a premonition.
If he were outside, he might have already returned to the Azure Emperor Palace or even called for powerful cultivators from the palace for help.
But inside the Peach Valley Secret Realm, he didn't feel that he was any weaker than a ninth-level Mortal Realm cultivator!
Moreover...
"Young Master."
A Serpentian Demon flew over, his expression extremely respectful, "We've found out that Jade White is currently active in Heavenly Waterfall City, and he appeared just yesterday... Cloud Pagoda is in seclusion, and only Ao Xin's whereabouts are unknown, possibly in some secret realm."
"Among the core members of Boundless Mountain, only Jade White is capable of challenging me..."
Fu Shan immediately felt relieved.
In fact, within Boundless Mountain, Jade White was equivalent to an Emperor's Son, holding an overwhelming advantage over the other princes, and even capable of killing them!
In other words, even if Fu Shan encountered Cloud Pagoda or Ao Xin... he could escape even if he couldn't win, and he was definitely not going to lose! Only when encountering Jade White would he have no chance of escape!
Upon hearing the precise news about Jade White, his eyes narrowed, and he transformed into a stream of light, flying towards the core region of the Peach Valley Secret Realm...
