Chapter 2331: Chapter 2380: Five Magnet Immortal Mountain

Jiang Fan felt a surge of gratification.

The companion who had walked alongside him from the Continent had finally arrived at this world’s highest stage. A sense of comfort welled up within him—the solace of having someone by his side on this long, arduous journey.

Once the anomaly vanished, Xia Chaoge’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she opened a pair of clear, bright eyes. Reflected in them was solely the smiling figure of Jiang Fan.

Her heart brimmed with gratitude. "Thank you, Martial... Teacher!"

She had almost blurted out the words "Martial Uncle."

Jiang Fan smiled. "There’s no need to thank me."

In his heart, he thought, "I owe you much more."

She had followed him through life and death on multiple occasions and gifted him her life-saving feathers several times. How could a mere two drops of Holy Blood ever fully repay that debt?

After pondering for a moment, he tentatively asked, "Are you willing to leave the Northern Heavenly State with me?"

Hearing this, Xia Chaoge’s heart raced uncontrollably. She wondered, "What does Martial Uncle mean by this?"

Lowering her beautiful eyes, she pursed her rosy lips slightly and asked, "Why do you want to take me away, Teacher?"

Jiang Fan explained, "The East Emperor is only temporarily held back by the West Empress. If given the chance, he will still force your hand.

"Besides, he might not necessarily marry you."

The East Emperor held no romantic affection for Xia Chaoge. He simply coveted her unique bloodline and wanted her to bear his children. His previous betrothal gifts were nothing more than a show of respect for Linglong, an Eight-winged Archangel.

When push came to shove, he was entirely capable of imprisoning Xia Chaoge and forcing himself upon her. At that time, she would have absolutely no power to resist. Therefore, he had to take Xia Chaoge away.

Xia Chaoge’s eyes dimmed slightly as she muttered, "So it’s just about that?

"Martial Uncle only knows how to trick people into being happy! Hmph!"

With a tense, unhappy little face, she said, "What are you to me, Teacher? Why should I leave with you?"

This left Jiang Fan momentarily speechless. He thought, "Is this girl trying to infuriate me on purpose?"

However, he couldn’t reveal his true identity, or it would expose the fact that his memories had been erased. Just as he was about to come up with another excuse, a slow and gentle voice rhythmically echoed throughout the entire Holy City.

"Prodigies, please gather at the Holy Mountain to compete and discourse with the world."

Jiang Fan raised an eyebrow. He wondered, "Is the sparring about to begin? And the venue is at the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain?"

Pressed for time, he could only wait until the sparring concluded to find a way to persuade Xia Chaoge. If persuasion failed, he would just take her away by force!

Rising to his feet, he said, "Let’s go. Let the Northern Heavenly State witness your transformation."

Xia Chaoge had absolutely no interest in this. However, realizing that the stronger she appeared, the more it would prove her Martial Uncle’s superiority over other mentors, she hastily stood up. "I’ll lead the way!"

SWOOSH! She flew out of the great hall, and then out of the Holy City. Then, she converged toward the very bottom of the Holy City.

Jiang Fan followed closely behind. Before long, he noticed that the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain inside his Space Storage Device was trembling uncontrollably, as if responding to some kind of summoning.

Looking down, he saw a thousand-foot-tall Five-Colored Divine Mountain, shaped exactly like a massive hand, plunged into the ancient earth. Its five fingers each displayed a different color. These corresponded perfectly to the five colors of the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain.

Within a ten-thousand-foot radius of the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain, there was neither Spiritual Energy nor dust. Any power that approached would be repelled by the mountain, creating a ten-thousand-foot Forbidden Land devoid of any power.

Within this Forbidden Land, the remains of creatures that had trespassed could be faintly seen. The weak had already crumbled into decayed dust. The strong, however, retained lifelike bodies, looking as fresh as if they were still alive. These were all experts who had been illuminated by the divine light, stripped even of their Physical Power, and trapped inside to die.

Jiang Fan’s eyes burned with desire.

This was the innate "Five Magnetic Divine Light" of the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain! Except for the Five Elements Power, no other force could pass through it. Moreover, his sharp eyes spotted that one of the fresh-looking corpses had eight pairs of wings on its back!

He thought, "Under the divine light of the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain, even an Eight-winged Archangel loses all power.

"And this is merely the outer perimeter of the mountain."

Based on Jiang Fan’s understanding of the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain, the closer one got to the core, the stronger the might of the Five Magnetic Divine Light became. If the outer perimeter could suppress an Eight-winged Archangel, just how powerful would the suppressive force be on the core mountain?

Jiang Fan grew even more covetous. The sheer might of the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain had vastly exceeded his expectations. If he could haul away the entire Five Magnet Immortal Mountain and smelt it into the Five Magnetic Yuan Mountain, the power of this Magical Treasure would likely rival that of a World Artifact.

"Chaoge! Chaoge!"

Just as they arrived, a crisp, charming voice interrupted Jiang Fan’s thoughts. A pretty young Angel girl approached them with a beaming smile. It was none other than Xia Chaoge’s best friend, Hua Wenqi.

Bubbling with liveliness, she pointed at the top of her head with a grin and asked, "Look what’s above my head!"

Xia Chaoge looked up and revealed a look of surprise. "Congratulations! You’ve broken through to become a Five Qi Angel Lord."

A month ago, Hua Wenqi had only been a Four Qi Angel Lord. To break through to the Great Venerate realm in just one short month was a rare sight in the Northern Heavenly State.

Hua Wenqi boasted, "Isn’t it? Elder Yun has been so good to me; he spared no resources to help me break through.

"If you had joined Elder Yun, you would definitely be a Four Qi Angel Lord by now."

She was still brooding over the fact that Xia Chaoge had rejected Yun Wanxiao in favor of receiving guidance from a member of the Human Clan. She couldn’t understand why someone with Xia Chaoge’s aptitude would willingly delay her own progress. What kind of help could a human possibly offer her?

As these thoughts crossed her mind, she curiously glanced at the top of Xia Chaoge’s head—and immediately froze in disbelief. "Where is your cultivation?"

The space above Xia Chaoge’s head was completely bare; the three Little Angels that once symbolized her status as a Three-qi Angel Lord were nowhere to be found.

Xia Chaoge smiled placidly and changed the subject. "I hid it."

Hua Wenqi looked thoroughly suspicious. "Why would you hide your cultivation for no good reason?

"Your cultivation hasn’t dropped, has it?"

Suddenly feeling upset, she glared angrily at Jiang Fan. Placing her hands on her hips, she snapped, "You human! Chaoge is the number one Prodigy of our Northern Heavenly State!

"Yet your guidance actually caused her cultivation to drop!

"You’re dead meat! Our Northern Heavenly State won’t let you off the hook!"

Jiang Fan couldn’t help but chuckle. This girl genuinely had Chaoge’s best interests at heart, so how could he possibly blame her?

He opened his mouth, just about to explain, when suddenly, two terrifyingly powerful auras surged toward them from the east and the west simultaneously. Looking up, they saw none other than the East Emperor and the West Empress. Surrounded by their respective groups of Great Angels, they arrived in the sky above the Five Magnet Immortal Mountain.

The East Emperor stated indifferently, "Get ready. The competition will begin in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea."

Not daring to delay, Hua Wenqi shot Jiang Fan a vicious glare and waved her little fist. "I’ll settle the score with you later."

She immediately flew toward Yun Wanxiao. However, halfway there, a Flower Skirt Six-winged Great Angel blocked her path.

Hua Wenqi’s expression changed, and she hastily bowed with the utmost respect. "Hua Wenqi greets the Ancestor!"

This Ancestor, with a cultivation as high as a Six-winged Archangel, was the supreme powerhouse of their clan. She usually stayed by the West Empress’s side and rarely returned to the family.

The Flower Skirt Six-winged Great Angel revealed a kindly expression, her eyes filled with anticipation. "Wenqi, you are actually acquainted with that senior from the Human Clan?"
