Chapter 927: Chapter 590: Primal Aura, Mysterious Ancient Tower

“It seems that if we want to find a way out, we’ll have to try and make contact with those powerful factions.”

Lu Qing sighed.

If given a choice, he really didn’t want to have any entanglements with those major powers.

After all, his identity was somewhat sensitive, and within both the Gongsu Family and the Joyful Union Sect, there were people who hated him to the core.

Once his true identity was exposed, he would face a considerable crisis.

So, unless absolutely necessary, he really didn’t want to get involved with those powers.

But right now, they were trapped in the secret realm, unable to find a way out.

And most importantly, even within this secret realm, Lu Qing could still feel the “mountain qi” accumulating continuously within his divine soul.

Although it wasn’t affecting him yet, over time, it certainly would.

Therefore, despite the risks involved in contacting those powerful factions,

given that there were no Primordial Spirit Great Powers present in the secret realm, if he was cautious, there shouldn’t be any significant problems.

Even if something was truly noticed, at worst he could just change his identity once he’s out.

“If even those big factions don’t know a way out, then I’ll have to try the last resort, using the Void Flying Boat,” Lu Qing thought silently.

The Void Flying Boat had the ability to traverse the void, and before entering the secret realm, he had already set space coordinates outside.

But the Tianshu Divine Mountain was too mysterious, and he couldn’t be certain if its secret realm could be pierced by the Void Flying Boat.

Moreover, the Void Flying Boat was one of his most powerful trump cards, something he didn’t want to expose unless absolutely necessary.

Otherwise, once the news that he possessed a High Grade Spirit Artifact got out, the consequences would be far more terrifying than his true identity being exposed.

Whether it was various powers or strong Loose Cultivators, they would all see him, a mere Golden Core Realm cultivator, as prey to be fought over by any means possible.

Having made a decision, Lu Qing put away the jade talisman on the ground, and the two of them started heading towards the mountains ahead.

As the two transformed into streams of light and entered the mountains,

on the other side, the seventy-six Loose Cultivators in the Golden Core Realm, who had been previously released by Lu Qing, regrouped once again.

Seeing the two streams of light disappearing into the mountains, they all showed expressions of awe.

“Who is that person, so formidable, likely not much inferior to the Daoist Saintess of those major factions, how come I’ve never heard of them?”

“There’s nothing strange about it. The world is vast, and there are countless geniuses. It’s quite normal for there to be those we’ve never heard of, maybe this person is the direct disciple of some secret power, an unparalleled prodigy perhaps.”

“Anyway, we managed to save our lives this time, it’s just a pity about Mr. Gu, don’t know what displeased that person, but they got crushed directly.”

“Hmph, that Gu fellow was always shadowy, like a viper, making people uncomfortable just to see him. Who knows what he used to do, maybe that person just found him unpleasant and decided to kill him.”

“Compared to Liu Hui and his group, we’ve been lucky enough not to be completely wiped out.”

“That’s right, Liu Hui and his group managed to escape from our hands but then immediately ran into such a calamity, they deserved their misfortune.”

“In my opinion, they weren’t unlucky; they were greedy! Liu Hui’s group must have seen that person was alone during their escape and harbored evil intentions, wanting to rob, but ended up kicking an iron plate, losing their lives in the process.”

“Speaking of which, with such a formidable dragon having entered the mountains, I wonder if they’ll clash with those Daoist Saintesses.”

“Even if they do, we wouldn’t be able to witness it. Are you planning to go into the mountains just to watch?”

“Naturally not, we barely escaped from that ghastly place; going back in, if we run into a couple of mutant beasts, we might end up staying there for good.”

…

“The feeling of spatial resistance in this deep mountain is actually stronger than on the grasslands outside.”

Upon entering the mountains, Lu Qing and the Daoist Wubao immediately sensed something unusual.

Inside the mountains, flying required even more mana.

Not only was the space more oppressive than outside, but it was also filled with a primordial aura.

Every now and then, strong presences flared and dashed below, and just through their senses, they detected many mutant beasts in activity.

Although most were still at the Foundation Establishment level, their presences were stronger than the Black-scaled Black Rat.

Among them, Lu Qing also sensed the activity of human presences.

However, neither he nor the Daoist Wubao had any intention of making contact, they just flew past.

From the words of the people earlier, they already knew.

Due to the scarcity of spirit stones and elixirs, there was a lot of distrust among cultivators in this deep mountain now.

Approaching recklessly could very well lead to conflict.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, they didn’t plan to engage with these Loose Cultivators.

Likewise, their flamboyant display of flying as streams of light naturally drew the attention of many cultivators in the mountains below.

Immediately, they were both surprised and puzzled.

“Who are they, so bold and wasteful of mana?”

“At such times, to have the audacity to fly around like that, these two must have brought plenty of spirit stones upon entering.”

“Should we take action and bring them down?”

“Don’t act rashly, these two dare to fly this flamboyantly, there must be something to rely on. If we provoke the wrong people, we might end up stuck here for real.”
