Chapter 79 Celestial Race
Nearby, a waterfall cascades down a rocky cliff, fragrant old herbs grow at your feet, and rare birds and animals disappear into the distance.
In addition, there are some thatched huts where powerful individuals from various races live in seclusion and cultivate.
Clearly, these must be the legendary pilgrims who hoped to become disciples of the sacred mountain and were willing to build huts and live there.
But just as Shi An was looking around, Yun Canghai on the other side reached out and reminded him, "Young friend, over here!"
Upon hearing this, Shi An glanced over.
A magnificent passage suddenly appeared ahead, stretching forward, with nothing, whether ancient trees, rocks, or streams, able to obstruct its path, like a divine bridge close to the ground.
Beside this divine bridge stood a golden beast, radiating divine light.
If there are no surprises, then the divine bridge should have been laid by this golden beast.
However, Shi An didn't say much, just nodded slightly, and then followed Yun Canghai and the other person onto the divine bridge.
Soon, the three of them crossed the sacred bridge and arrived at a sacred mountain.
This sacred mountain, shaped like a real dragon, is magnificent and soars into the sky, connecting mountains and rivers. It seems to have a life of its own, with flowing springs and waterfalls, and orchids and magnolias growing on it.
A spirit dragon coils on the cliff face, a crow's nest is built on a giant tree, a divine sable appears among the piles of rocks, and a black turtle floats in the deep pool.
This place is incredibly beautiful and is home to many rare creatures and strange species.
But what caught Shi An's eye the most was the pair of Eight Treasures Chickens leisurely pecking at the spiritual herbs outside the mountain gate.
If it is like this outside the mountain, it is even more so inside. Not only are there flocks of colorful cranes, but also phoenixes soaring, and the air is filled with the fragrance of orchids and the essence of the sunset. No one can help but praise it as a sacred mountain full of spiritual energy!
As for the scenery on the mountain, it makes you feel like you are in a fairyland, otherworldly and peaceful!
First, there was a gurgling spring, then various rare birds and animals that were playing in the mountains and had long since become extinct elsewhere, and ancient medicines whose fragrance wafted so far that it formed a white mist.
Finally, atop the mountain stood various magnificent heavenly palaces that sent shivers down one's spine.
Seeing that Shi An had been looking around ever since arriving at Heavenly God Mountain, Yun Canghai couldn't help but begin to doubt Shi An's identity. Why was he behaving this way despite having such a powerful protector?
While pondering, Yun Canghai couldn't help but look Shi An up and down, but in the end, he was still wary of the strength of that green willow branch and didn't say anything more, only bowing and saying, "Young friend, please!"
"it is good."
Upon hearing this, Shi An immediately withdrew his gaze and followed Yun Canghai deeper into the area.
Logically speaking, Shi An, having received the inheritance of the Purple Spirit True Immortal, shouldn't have acted like a country bumpkin visiting the city when faced with the scenery of Tian Shen Mountain, showing great curiosity about everything.
In reality, the so-called true immortal inheritance, apart from having a slightly more tangible sense of cultivation or practice, is more like watching a play or playing a role called Zi Ling, which is far less tangible in terms of sensory experience.
That's why he seemed a little out of sorts just now.
But now that he had come to his senses, Shi An had restrained himself and no longer paid much attention to his surroundings. He simply followed quietly behind Yun Canghai and moved forward silently with Yun Xi.
Thus, a quarter of an hour later, led by Yun Canghai, Shi An arrived at a place that was clearly the location of the council.
Some hunchbacked old men, radiating intense divine light like miniature suns, sat on either side. Although their eyes were closed, Shi An could still sense an earth-shattering power emanating from them, as if they were facing the entire world.
Clearly, although the group of elders did not know why he was there, it did not stop him from considering himself one of the members who wanted to join the sacred mountain.
Shi An paid little attention to this, but quietly looked at Yun Canghai, who was slowly landing in the second position, and said, "Senior, now that you have entered Tian Shen Mountain, when will you fulfill your promise?"
Seeing that Shi An wanted him to fulfill his promise right away, Yun Canghai's heart skipped a beat, but he was not angry. Instead, he said very calmly, "Young friend, please don't be impatient. Let me discuss this with the elders of my clan first, and then I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
As he spoke, Yun Canghai seemed to realize that his voice sounded a bit off, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Of course, if you don't want to wait here, you can leave first and take a walk around to see the sights of my Heavenly God Mountain."
After saying that, Yun Canghai turned to Yun Xi, who was standing next to Shi An, and said, "Xiao Xi, please show my friend around and make sure he feels the warmth and sincerity of our Tian Shen Mountain."
"Yes, Grandfather!"
Upon hearing this, Yunxi nodded slightly, then turned to Shi An and said, "Let's go, I'll show you around Tian Shen Mountain."
"Thank you for your help!"
Seeing this, Shi An nodded slightly, withdrawing his gaze from the hunchbacked old men radiating intense divine light. He was secretly on guard, but remained outwardly calm.
Because, despite Yun Canghai's promise and Liu Shen's protection, in such a place full of powerful people, he himself still needs to be sufficiently cautious, otherwise even if he doesn't die, he will definitely be badly injured.
However, Shi An was only worrying unnecessarily, because even after he left the gate with Yun Xi, the old men did not make trouble for him, nor did they even say a word. They simply turned their attention to Yun Canghai, clearly wanting him to answer their questions.
Seeing this, Shi An felt a little relieved and stopped paying attention to what happened next. Instead, he followed Yun Xi and began to explore Tian Shen Mountain.
And so, the two walked and talked along the winding path.
Along the way, Yunxi introduced Shi An to various aspects of Tianshen Mountain, from ancient legends to the footprints left by powerful figures from various races, and some precautions to take when visiting Tianshen Mountain.
Shi An listened quietly, nodding occasionally and asking questions now and then. The atmosphere between the two gradually became more harmonious without them even realizing it.
In addition, they also encountered some powerful Celestial Race cultivators who were cultivating. Some were concentrating with their eyes closed, while others were wielding their swords to cut through the wind. Each of them was immersed in their own cultivation world, as if they were isolated from the outside world.
"This is········"
Suddenly, Shi An smelled a medicinal fragrance, which made him involuntarily take a few more breaths.
Just then, Yunxi pointed to a garden shrouded in mist not far away and introduced it: "That is our Celestial Race's medicine garden. It is planted with rare spiritual herbs, which are very beneficial to cultivation."
Upon hearing the sound, Shi An looked over and saw that the garden was lush with spiritual herbs, and the air was filled with the fragrance of medicine. Strange beasts could be seen moving among them from time to time, guarding these precious spiritual plants.
"Truly befitting a prestigious family!"
Looking at the scene in the garden, Shi An sighed with genuine emotion.
To be honest, he sometimes really envied these big families, who always had a medicinal herb garden or a spirit beast garden.
In contrast, Stone Village has no medicinal herbs, let alone large areas of them. There isn't even a single mature plant. It's truly infuriating to compare oneself to others.
