Chapter 415: The Unknown Place!

“Is Guan Shanyue that powerful?” Ye Chen could not help but ask after noticing that Niu Qingshan was fearful of Shang Santian and Guan Shanyue.

“Not just powerful. It’s no exaggeration to describe him as terrifying!” As Niu Qingshan shook his head lightly, the wrinkles on his old face squeezed together. He looked serious now. “It was the peak of Martial Dao in China 50 years ago. There were many martial venerables in the world. Meanwhile, my Fourth Junior Brother was a legend back then. Most importantly, I suspect that he’s been to Kunlun.”

“Kunlun?” Ye Chen frowned.

“Shang Santian’s entrance is in Kunlun!” Niu Qingshan coughed hard a few times and continued, “However, nobody knows exactly where the entrance is. Back then, Fourth Junior Brother was close to the people from Shang Santian. He even disappeared for three months. Therefore, I suspect that he went into Shang Santian and comprehended something.”

“So, that’s the reason why the Heavenly Palace was trying to stop me from killing the people from Shang Santian?” Ye Chen came to a realization as he began thinking to himself.

Guan Shanyue must have some relationship or business with Shang Santian. That was the reason why he had sent people from the Heavenly Palace to stop him.

“That’s right!” Niu Qingshan nodded lightly. “Don’t judge him by my severe injury from fighting him. That only happened because we had the same master besides knowing each other for half of our lives. That’s how well we know each other.”

“Don’t worry about it!” Ye Chen chuckled softly, appearing at ease. “I won’t offend people who haven’t offend me. If he really attacks me, I’d really like to know exactly how powerful is the man who was a martial art legend 50 years ago.”

“You sure are confident!” Niu Qingshan looked at Ye Chen with a burning desire in his eyes. He could roughly guess Ye Chen’s ability. The man had killed quite some half-step martial venerables. However, it was hard to predict the outcome if he was to fight a real martial venerable.

Ye Chen interrupted him and asked, “Let’s not talk about that for now. Do you know where’s the 10,000 Sword Pavilion?”

According to Lin Tai, Wushuang had been taken away by an old beggar after he crushed his sword. The man had asked Ye Chen to go to the 10,000 Sword Pavilion to look for Wushuang. However, he had never heard of the 10,000 Sword Pavilion before.

“The 10,000 Sword Pavilion?” Niu Qingshan was slightly stunned. He said while shaking his head after thinking to himself for a little bit, “I’ve never heard of it. However, I’m sure that there’s no such place in entire China or even the whole of Southeast Asia.”

He was the Dragon Soul’s king who had lived for up to a hundred years. One could say that he knew everything about the world. However, even he did not know about such a place.

Ye Chen frowned slightly.

Niu Qingshan seemed to have recalled something after noticing that Ye Chen was silent. He added, “If there’s really such a place, I suppose it’s in…”

“Shang Santian!” Ye Chen said.

“That’s right!” Niu Qingshan looked at Ye Chen, feeling impressed. “In entire China and even the world, there are only a few unknown places that existed although I don’t know about them, including Shang Santian and the Egyptian pyramids!”

Although the Dragon Soul was powerful, they could not go to those places.

Ye Chen secretly sighed. It seemed like Wushuang had really been taken to Shang Santian. In that case, he must visit Shang Santian. Whether Wushuang was dead or alive, he must bring him back.

Niu Qingshan said after seeming to realize what he was thinking about, “It’s very difficult for you to get into Shang Santian. This unknown place has existed for up to 1,000 years. Nobody has been able to find it throughout the 1,000 years. Even Qin Shi Huang failed to find it with the power he had back then.”

“Why was that?” Ye Chen said.

“After Qin Shi Huang conquered the six countries and unified China, he was after the elixir of life. He sent many people to look for the elixir. A portion of them went abroad to look for the immortal mountain while a portion of them went to Kunlun.”

Niu Qingshan put away the tobacco bag and said while shaking his head, “Kunlun is the ancestor of 10,000 mountains, the ancestor of the dragon vein. The dragon vein is divided into eight. Five flow through China and three are abroad. Legend has it that the Kunlun Mountains is also the Queen Mother of the West’s palace. Therefore, Qin Shi Huang wanted to look for the Queen Mother of the West. However, everyone who goes to Kunlun disappears mysteriously.”

“Did the people Shang Santian capture them?”

“I don’t know about that!” Niu Qingshan shook his head and said, “Throughout the 36 years Qin Shi Huang was in reign, he only began obsessing with being immortal in 225 BC. He died in 210 BC. Throughout those 15 years, he sent over 10,000 people to Kunlun. All of them disappeared. Some said that they were eaten by monsters while some said they were killed by the Kunlun locals.”

He paused as he spoke to this point and proceeded, “However, from what I know, I speculate that these people died at the Kunlun border. They didn’t find the Queen Mother of the West’s palace until they were dead because there are just too many strange things happening at the Kunlun Mountains.”

“Strange things?” Ye Chen frowned.

“That’s right!” Niu Qingshan nodded. “Someone saw the monkeys at the Kunlun Mountains walk like humans besides eating vegetables, and chanting and reciting the Diamond Sutra. Some said that on certain nights, darkness would invade the Kunlun Mountains. Living humans would be left with skeletons from the darkness, and there would be white fog on the Kunlun Mountains. As people walked out of the fog, they’d find that they arrived 3,200 kilometers away on land…”

A gleam flashed through Ye Chen’s eyes upon hearing that.

If what Niu Qingshan said was the truth, then the Kunlun Mountains were really strange. However, he was not exactly surprised about that. After all, compared to the cultivation world, the Kunlun Mountains were insignificant.

He was getting more and more determined to explore Kunlun now.

Just when Niu Qingshan was going to speak further, Li Ying walked over from far away. She said while smiling, “Boss, Mr. Ye, it’s time for lunch!”

“That’s all I’m going to tell you. It’s better that you talk to me before you visit the place. Please don’t do as you wish. The world isn’t as simple as you think!” Niu Qingshan took a good look at Ye Chen and left after rolling up the bottom of his pants.

Ye Chen caught up with him and they had lunch at the Dragon Soul’s base. He only left in the afternoon.

…

At the same time at sea, a young man with long hair sat 1,000 meters under the sea with his legs crossed. If one were to look closer, they would notice that there was no seawater around him. The seawater seemed to have let out a five meters space for him, creating a vacuum.

Meanwhile, the young man was at ease in the vacuum in such immense water pressure. His eyes were shut, and there was a white gleam shining on his body. White energy was being exuded on top of his head.

The seawater would freeze as soon as the white energy touched it. Even when a killer whale attempted to eat him, its gigantic body turned into an ice sculpture in the next second.

At that moment, the young man suddenly opened his eyes. He took out something that was similar to a mobile phone. A smirk appeared on his cold face when he looked at the video on it for a couple of seconds.

“My dear senior brother, you sure are tough. You survived the battle, and that brat healed you. You’ve even become a martial venerable now. But do you think you can stop me? Aren’t you trapping yourself by trying to stop me? Do you really think that I, Guan Shanyue, can do nothing about that brat?”
