Chapter 2092: Chapter 2047: Mount Kunlun Summit
The four women also drove away separately.
Chen Yang tidied up the remnants and then went to manage the herb field, taking a rest...
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for Chen Yang to go to Mount Kunlun and attend Cangnan Academy.
During this half month, Chen Yang had arranged everything at home.
He left a lot of Spirit Stones for his second uncle, Chen Tianmin, to develop the Chou Alliance.
The family’s business was also entirely entrusted to Elder Qiu.
Elder Qiu specifically manages resources; he is suited for business.
Letting him manage the village’s industry to earn money in exchange for cultivation resources is the best option.
He also carefully explained the purpose of his trip to his second uncle and others.
To the Mystic Realm, to improve his cultivation! To see an even more magical world.
When he returns, it will be the time to annihilate the Blood Bat Hall!
Second uncle Chen Tianmin, although reluctant, certainly supported Chen Yang’s decision.
A capable man aims for distant places; staying in this realm will greatly slow Chen Yang’s cultivation speed.
After all, he had already entered the Condensation Realm.
In this realm, strong ones in the Condensation Realm are scarce.
Moreover, most are elderly.
Why are there no young cultivators in the Condensation Realm?
Of course, it’s due to the depletion of Spiritual Energy in this realm.
So, to develop faster, one must go to the Mystic Realm!
Having arranged everything at home, Chen Yang took some items he might need and headed to Mount Kunlun.
Mount Kunlun is one of the most mysterious mountains in this realm.
In the eyes of ordinary people, it is the ancestor of all mountains.
In the eyes of cultivators, Mount Kunlun is equally mysterious and great.
The mountain range stretches thousands of miles, and higher areas are covered with ice and snow all year round.
Chen Yang proceeded along the route according to the map.
Feng Nihuang mentioned that the location for Cangnan Academy’s enrollment is on the summit of Mount Kunlun!
"It’s just ahead, why can’t I see anything?"
Chen Yang stood on a vast snowfield, looking up at the highest peak of Kunlun.
It’s still a snow mountain, nothing else around.
Could it be a barrier too?
Chen Yang was puzzled but didn’t ponder much.
Since Feng Nihuang said it was here, she must be right.
The other party had no reason to deceive her.
He continued forward.
After an hour, he reached the summit of Mount Kunlun!
Initially, half a step from the summit platform, it was still a vast expanse, nothing visible.
But upon fully climbing the summit, the space in front suddenly rippled.
As if walking into an invisible water gate...
Through the water gate, the scene changed completely.
There were many people.
The platform had at least dozens of people.
Most were young people in modern clothing, along with some elders.
Only a few wore ancient robes.
Those people had identical colors and styles in their clothing.
Blue long robes, cuffs embroidered with gold thread showing a timeless, majestic Cangwu tree symbol.
These are the people of Cangnan Academy?
Chen Yang speculated inwardly.
But before he could think further, an old man in a green robe approached.
"Are you here for the test too?"
Asked the old man.
Chen Yang nodded: "Yes, I’m here for the test."
"What’s your name?" The old man looked Chen Yang up and down and asked.
"Chen Yang."
"Good, take this and wait over there. The test is in half a day’s time. If you’re called, go for the test over there." The old man directly handed Chen Yang a Jade Token.
Then he pointed to the crowd, indicating for Chen Yang to wait there.
"Okay." Chen Yang took the Jade Token and followed the instructions.
Sudden arrival of a newcomer naturally attracted quite a few gazes.
Thirty or so pairs of eyes were all focused on Chen Yang.
As if trying to see through Chen Yang completely.
However, Chen Yang had special methods to conceal his aura, avoiding revealing any of his cultivation.
While those people scanned Chen Yang, he also felt curious about them.
Unexpectedly, knowledge about the Mystic Realm and Cangnan Academy’s disciples seemed quite widespread.
It seems there are quite a few in this realm with good cultivation talent.
Though, the cultivation levels of these people are generally low.
The highest is merely a young man who just recently broke into the Spirit Gathering Realm.
The young man in a suit, wearing a branded watch, raised his head high, appearing very confident.
Or perhaps, arrogant!
Around him had already gathered a bunch of other cultivators.
They didn’t know each other.
Just noticed the young man’s uncommon cultivation, hence came over to curry favor.
While Chen Yang felt disdain for such behavior, he didn’t comment.
After all, everyone has their own thoughts.
Moreover, away from home, seeking protection through connections is normal.
Chen Yang scanned everyone present and, finding nothing special, chose a quiet spot to stand.
Waiting for the elders of Cangnan Academy to start the test.
"Greetings, friend. My name is Nangong Zheng. I’d like to make friends with you."
Shortly after standing there, a man with a standard look, about 1.7 meters tall, wearing regular clothes, approached Chen Yang and kindly extended his hand.
Chen Yang didn’t intend to get involved with anyone.
But facing someone’s goodwill, he couldn’t ignore it.
So he politely extended his hand, shaking his: "Hello, Chen Yang."
After saying his name, Chen Yang had little more to say.
He assumed that Nangong Zheng would leave afterward.
Unexpectedly, Nangong Zheng stood beside him, not speaking further.
Instead, he stared coldly at the arrogant young man surrounded by the crowd.
Chen Yang noticed this and became curious about his stance.
So he asked: "Do you have a grudge against that person?"
Nangong Zheng turned, the coldness on his face slightly dispersed, and said: "No, just simply don’t like his demeanor and the pandering attitude of those people."
"How others act is their freedom, isn’t it too much to care about?" Chen Yang laughed.
Nangong Zheng, however, replied with righteousness: "If this wasn’t on the path to the Mystic Realm, I wouldn’t bother, but this is on the way to the Mystic Realm."
"They haven’t even stepped into the Mystic Realm and already show such demeanor. If they truly get there and people see them, wouldn’t it embarrass our realm?"
Chen Yang hesitated.
Thinking deeply, Nangong Zheng makes a good point.
The arrogant young man is merely in the early Spirit Gathering stage, yet so arrogant; if he goes to the Mystic Realm, he will surely suffer.
And as for those pandering, even more so.
Being so sycophantic to someone in the early Spirit Gathering stage.
Once they encounter stronger ones, wouldn’t they fall to their knees in worship?
Doesn’t this embarrass our realm?
"You’re right." Chen Yang thought and agreed with Nangong Zheng.
"Chen Yang, to be honest, I wanted to make friends with you mainly because I saw you aren’t sycophantic and have backbone. So I approached; we don’t know much about the Mystic Realm, forming an alliance might be helpful." Nangong Zheng clasped his hands earnestly to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang was very strong in his own right; despite not knowing much about the Mystic Realm, he was fearless.
He really didn’t need allies.
But he found Nangong Zheng interesting and worth befriending.
