Chapter 171: Chapter 171
Although the recovery of spiritual energy allowed many people to elevate their realms, it only meant the number of Qi Condensation cultivators would exponentially increase.
The threshold for ordinary people to step into cultivation had been drastically lowered. This was actually a massive opportunity for ordinary people. If they could grasp it, it was a chance to soar into the heavens.
Vendors hawked their wares non-stop on both sides of the street.
"Supreme-grade healing pills, we have everything you need! The unparalleled choice for seeking opportunities in the wild and hunting demonic beasts!"
"When traveling abroad, how can you not have a handy weapon? Supreme-grade flying swords, only 100 high-grade spirit stones!"
"Spiritual herbs! Thousand-year spiritual herbs! Don’t miss out as you walk by!"
A middle-aged man with an extremely ordinary appearance walked through the crowd, looking at these goods, he didn’t show much interest, although everything was advertised as supreme-grade pills and supreme-grade flying swords, they were just mundane items.
To his current self, they were of absolutely no use.
The middle-aged man eventually found an inn, took a seat by the window, and ordered a pot of clear sake and a few side dishes, he had already been flying long-distance for several days.
There were only a few entrances in the Eastern Continent that led into the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm.
Unfortunately, the Vast Azure Region didn’t have one, the middle-aged man had to make the long trek to the neighboring Eastern Abyss Domain.
Furthermore, it wasn’t a place you could enter as you pleased. Under normal circumstances, ordinary people were forbidden from entering the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm.
Only merchant caravans traveling between the two realms were permitted entry.
The middle-aged man planned to rest here for the night and ask around to see if any caravans in the neighboring domain were short on hands. Otherwise, arriving there would be like running around like a headless fly.
"Guest, all your dishes have been served, please enjoy!" The waiter, with a white towel draped over his shoulder, smiled broadly and added, "Guest, you must also be here for the Saint’s Tomb, right?"
The middle-aged man was startled, the name giving him a fright.
A Saint’s Tomb? Who would dare use the word Saint to describe a tomb? Could it really be the tomb of a Saint?
"Waiter, a Saint was buried here?"
"Guest, I wouldn’t know about that. I only heard it from passing travelers. They say there’s a Saint’s tomb here, and many major clans have arrived. I heard even the great clans from the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm have sent quite a few people!" The waiter shook his head, his face full of amazement.
"Where is the Saint’s Tomb?" the middle-aged man frowned and asked.
"In Windgrass Village, fifty kilometers west of Crystal Forest City, the night it emerged, there was a deafening rumble that shook the entire city. The next day, a massive tomb appeared right above that village. It’s incredibly huge, I heard it covered the entire village!" The waiter’s eyes gleamed as he spoke.
"Which major clans have come?" The middle-aged man took out a piece of broken silver and tossed it to the waiter.
The waiter was overjoyed, the smile on his face growing even wider. "Guest, a lot of people have come! The imperial family of our Celestial Mandate Dynasty, and the dynasty’s number one sect, the Azure Cloud Sect. I heard they’ve dispatched several Mortal Supremes!"
The Celestial Mandate Dynasty could be considered the strongest dynasty in the Vast Azure Region, roughly equal to three Silver Willow Dynasties combined.
"There are also sects from neighboring regions who have sent a similar caliber of people!"
"But the ones from the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm are truly formidable! Both the Solar Ancient Clan and the Bloom Ancient Clan have dispatched Dao Childs. I reckon the opportunities within this Saint’s Tomb will fall into their hands!" The waiter finished with a look of regret.
"Alright, you may go!" The middle-aged man waved his hand, having gathered enough information.
"Right away, Guest! Take your time and enjoy. Just call if you need anything!" The waiter was already satisfied having received the silver. It was just a pity it wasn’t a spirit stone.
Once, a customer had paid with a spirit stone, shocking even the innkeeper, he heard a single spirit stone was worth many, many taels of silver.
"This spiritual energy recovery is truly a wonderful thing!" After turning around, the waiter happily muttered to himself.
The middle-aged man’s face grew slightly heavy, a complex look appearing in his eyes.
Is the recovery of spiritual energy truly a good thing? The Saint’s Tomb descended upon a village... what about the people who originally lived there?
He sighed and stopped thinking about it, everything had its destiny, he didn’t want to get involved in this mess, heading to the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm was more important.
This middle-aged man was exactly Adam, having altered his appearance and aura.
The Saint’s Tomb might be real, but no one could guarantee whether it contained opportunities or deadly peril.
If he didn’t have pressing matters, Adam might have gone to join the fun, but...
"Hmm? Did you hear? Some Mortal Supremes came out of the Saint’s Tomb, they said it seems to be the tomb of some Book Saint. However, there’s a restriction, so they are preparing to join forces with other Mortal Supremes!"
"What? Are you talking about the Saint who achieved sainthood through reading, Liber?"
Two people suddenly walked in through the doorway while conversing.
Abruptly, the person sitting at the table by the window vanished, no one even noticed.
"Waiter, clean up this table by the window," one of the two called out.
"Right away, Guest, I’ll... wait, there was just someone sitting here!" The waiter stared at the untouched food and wine, falling into complete bewilderment.
You should have said it was a Book Saint earlier!
In the very next second, Adam appeared fifty kilometers west of the city.
He loved reading books the most! A Book Saint’s ancient tomb definitely had to have an incredible amount of books!
As soon as Adam stepped out of the spatial rift, he saw the massive tomb, completely exposed to the open air.
It looked incredibly ancient, as if it had weathered boundless eons of time!
