Chapter 1035: Chapter 1033: Mount Kunlun
If the Saint Master Hall could have its own place, even if just a corner, I would be thrilled to death.
But then some trash started causing trouble, and of course, Sword Star Lord was not pleased.
As for that Netherworld God, Sword Star Lord didn’t take him seriously. He posted information on Weibo, knowing it’s a primary social media tool in the Yang Realm.
"That so-called Netherworld God dares to call himself a god! If he disrupts the Holy Master’s affairs, I’ll be the first to kill him," said Sword Star Lord.
Countless people were astonished. Who is this Sword Star Lord?
It seemed like Sword Star Lord was quite familiar with the Saint Heavenly Master. Was it true or not?
Sword Star Lord quickly revealed his identity. He thought for a moment and said, "I am Sword Star Lord, a warrior under the Holy Master."
The crowd was taken aback.
Was he for real?
Sword Star Lord was already well-versed with Weibo. He took a photo and posted it online so that people could recognize him in the future.
Of course, it would be best if he could establish a place for himself in the corner of the Saint Master Hall.
When Sword Star Lord’s photo was posted, everyone was shocked.
This guy was no human; he was a black shark demon, muscular with a body covered in black scales, exuding a terrifying aura.
After all, being the Jail Master, he did have some level of intimidation.
"Amazing, my Holy Master," people exclaimed.
"The Holy Master actually has such a warrior," others marveled.
Sword Star Lord posted a message: "To the trash causing trouble, I’m coming to annihilate you."
With Chu Hao absent, Sword Star Lord was idle and decided to head abroad without a second thought, searching for that so-called Netherworld God.
The Western Ghosts were oblivious that Sword Star Lord had set his sights on them.
...
At this moment.
Chu Hao arrived at Kunlun Mountain.
The people of Kunlun Mountain had mostly evacuated, led away from the Realm of Yanhuang Yangjian by the Golden Cicada.
At this time, Kunlun Mountain was desolate, with only a few old Taoist priests who stayed behind. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to leave, but there were too many cherished memories here.
They didn’t have long to live and only wished to dedicate their remaining life to the Kunlun Daoist Temple.
Chu Hao descended on a sword, landing at the Kunlun Mountain Daoist Temple.
An old Taoist priest was shocked to see Chu Hao and excitedly said, "You, you are the Saint Heavenly Master!"
Chu Hao nodded slightly and asked, "How many people are left at Kunlun Mountain?"
The old Taoist priest, still excited, quickly answered, "The Kunlun Daoist Temple now has only four people. It’s an honor to receive you, Saint Heavenly Master."
These days, the Yin-Yang Realm of the Yanhuang Human World was fragmented, with too many people having left.
However, those who left never imagined that Chu Hao would fight the Foreign Ghosts to the death.
Chu Hao sighed, feeling complex emotions about the once first Taoist temple in the Yin-Yang Realm, Kunlun, now reduced to only four people.
Chu Hao asked, "Where is Kunlun Mountain’s treasure pavilion?"
The old Taoist priest was stunned.
Of course, Chu Hao wouldn’t say he was there to loot Kunlun, else it might scare the old man.
"Ah! The treasure pavilion of the Kunlun Daoist Temple has already been relocated," said the old Taoist priest.
Chu Hao figured as much.
He said, "Continue with your tasks; I’ll stroll around."
The old Taoist hastily said, "I’ll prepare a meal for the Holy Master."
After the old Taoist left, Chu Hao asked the System, "System, are all the treasures of Kunlun Mountain really gone? Is there anything to find these treasures of the Yin-Yang Realm?"
System: "Recommend the Host to purchase the Yin-Yang Treasure Hunt Bee."
"Purchase."
"Ding... Host purchased the Yin-Yang Treasure Hunt Bee, consuming 30,000 Pretentiousness Points, 157,000 points remaining."
Item: Yin-Yang Treasure Hunt Bee
Function: This bee has the ability to search for secrets, magic artifacts, treasures, etc., in the Yin-Yang Realm.
Chu Hao released the Treasure Hunting Bee, which circled in mid-air a few times before flying towards a specific direction.
Chu Hao, delighted, quickly followed.
The Daoist Temple of Kunlun Mountain was vast. He followed the path up and reached a courtyard where the Treasure Hunt Bee darted into a window on the left side.
Chu Hao entered the room; its owner had already left.
The Treasure Hunt Bee landed on a stone slab. As Chu Hao reached out to touch it, he discovered it was loose. He pulled the stone slab away, revealing two items inside.
"Ding... Found Spirit Gathering Technique, can exchange for 1,000 Pretentiousness Points."
"Ding... Found a copper object with remnants of magical power, can exchange for 1,000 Pretentiousness Points."
Whoever left these, the room’s owner didn’t take them. These two items weren’t very useful, so he exchanged them for Pretentiousness Points.
Chu Hao looked at the Treasure Hunt Bee and said, "Keep searching."
The Treasure Hunt Bee buzzed out of the room.
After some searching, he did manage to find a few things, but they were all minor items of the Yin-Yang Realm that Chu Hao didn’t care for.
He couldn’t help but say, "Can’t you find anything more valuable? These junk items are useless unless there’s a pile of them."
The Treasure Hunt Bee seemed to understand and led him further up Kunlun Mountain.
Kunlun Mountain is the first sacred mountain of Huaxia Country, also called the Mountain of Ten Thousand Gods.
Legend has it that countless Taoist masters reside there.
For instance, the Mother of All Gods, Queen Mother of the West.
The dojo of the Heavenly Venerable, Yuan Shi, and so on.
Famed deities known worldwide.
Chu Hao didn’t believe these were just legends.
Kunlun Mountain was vast, its range connecting many places.
The Treasure Hunt Bee flew ahead and finally spotted a well.
Kunlun Spring.
This was a scenic spot, with the pool’s edges made of granite slabs forming a polygonal pattern. At the center, a spring burst forth, forming a crystalline mushroom shape, its countless jade-like petals scattering around.
It was like a blossoming lotus flower, with countless shattered jade-like pieces splashing silently into a clear pool, then rushing into the mighty Kunlun River.
The Treasure Hunt Bee paused at Kunlun Spring.
Chu Hao walked over to examine the unique features of Kunlun Spring.
This well didn’t appear to have anything special at a glance.
However, Chu Hao’s eyes flashed with golden light, the Ultimate Fiery Golden Eyes revealing everything.
Suddenly, he saw a golden light flash within the well, and without hesitation, Chu Hao leapt into it.
The well was deep, and as he swam down through its narrow crevices, he immediately sensed a vast space below.
Beneath the well, there was a Daoist platform, where a skeleton sat cross-legged.
This skeleton had been soaking in the water for who knows how many years, with all flesh decayed away.
Chu Hao saw the golden light in the skeleton’s mouth.
He pried open the skeleton’s jaws and retrieved a thumb-width jade shard.
"Ding... Found a Luminous Jade Shard with magical power, can exchange for 20,000 Pretentiousness Points."
Chu Hao was delighted.
This Luminous Jade Shard was from a larger object, seemingly shattered, with this being one small piece held in the skeleton’s mouth.
"Ding... Quest released: Collect Luminous Jade Shards. Completing the quest grants 50 million Experience Points."
"Ding... Completing the quest grants the complete rare treasure, the Luminous Jade Object."
If just a small Luminous Jade Shard can exchange for 20,000 Pretentiousness Points, how much would the complete object be worth?
This Kunlun Mountain indeed held surprises.
Apart from the skeleton, there was nothing else in the well, so Chu Hao returned to the surface.
He took out the Luminous Shard and said, "Treasure Hunt Bee, can you locate this item?"
The Treasure Hunt Bee circled the Luminous Shard a few times and shot into the sky, with Chu Hao eagerly following.
