2057 Visit Yang Mei, As Long As It’s You, Fight Yang Mei
After the trip to the Far West Land, Chu Kuangren planned to visit the oldest existence in the Pan Gu Universe, the Great Immortal Yang Mei.
Ha had at least sixty to seventy percent confidence to locate Yang Mei.
However, he was uncertain if Yang Mei was an ally or an enemy. Judging from his decision to side with Luo Hou, Chu Kuangren tended to believe that the person was an enemy.
Therefore, he sent Gu Linglong and Lan Yu back to the empire first.
Then, he headed east and arrived at a boundless sea.
He took the ship and went on sail.
It was quiet and windy, which made the voyage a pleasant one.
Suddenly, the sky turned dark, while the wind grew stronger and soon turned into a storm.
The crew of the ship got worried.
“Bang!”
As expected, the storm arrived, and a massive tornado that connected the sea and the sky appeared, sweeping everything away.
The tornado was formed by countless mixed spiritual qi. Each gale that it released was as sharp as a blade forged by the best Immortal Metal, and it could crush one’s body easily.
Its power could threaten even a Gilded Immortal.
Shocked, the crew quickly entered the cabin and turned on the protective barrier.
“Brother, come inside! It’s dangerous out here!” said a kind-hearted man to Chu Kuangren.
However, Chu Kuangren remained standing on the deck. He smiled and said, “It’s okay.”
The kind-hearted man noticed Chu Kuangren’s amazing presence and the shimmering Immortal Sparks around him. He believed Chu Kuangren was an elite, so after a quick thought, he decided to leave him alone.
He should be keeping himself safe and not worry about others.
After everyone got into the cabin, Chu Kuangren was left alone on the deck. He looked at the tornado calmly.
Sword qi was swirling around his fingers.
However, before he could shoot his sword qi out, heavy white mist appeared further at the horizon and gradually dissipated the storm.
Chu Kuangren’s eyes gleamed with interest.
Noticing the storm had calmed down, the crew inside the cabin came out and were grateful when they saw the white mist.
“Thank you, white mist! Thank you for saving us!”
“Thank you!”
Chu Kuangren was curious, so he asked the crew about the white mist.
“Brother, you have no idea. Our people live by the sea, and whenever we run into a storm during a sail, we never know if we can make it home in one piece. But some time ago, the white mist appeared. Whenever there’s a storm at sea, the mist will come and calm the storm,” said a man.
The man was grateful for the white mist.
“Has anyone gone in to explore the mist?”
“Of course, but anything that got near, be it a ship or a flying treasure, would be rendered useless. Not even an Arch Gilded Immortal could get near. So, as time went by, everyone just let it be since the mist had never hurt us and had always helped us to calm the storm.”
“I see…”
Chu Kuangren looked at the white mist curiously.
If he was correct, the person he was looking for would be in the white mist.
With that, Chu Kuangren discarded his doubts and stepped forward into the mist.
Everyone else was shocked by his action.
“Brother, no!”
Based on their previous experience, not even an Arch Gilded Immortal could get near because the mist would nullify all powers.
Anyone who got close would fall into the sea.
They believed Chu Kuangren was not as strong as an Arch Gilded Immortal, so it was suicidal.
“None of the elites can sit tight when they learn of the mist, huh?” the man said as he shook his head helplessly.
Those who first heard of the mist believed there must be some treasures hidden in it, and they would usually go in to explore the place, no matter how much others tried to discourage them.
Taking the risk for a treasure was common in the cultivation world.
To him, Chu Kuangren was no different than the others.
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren got closer to the mist.
Just when the crew thought he would lose his powers and fall into the sea, he entered the mist and disappeared from their sight.
He became the first one to enter the mist, which shocked the crew.
“Who is he? How did he…”
“I have no idea…”
“Let’s try.”
Some other cultivators were encouraged by Chu Kuangren’s success and decided to follow in his footsteps.
With that, they darted toward the mist but fell into the sea one after another.
They were puzzled.
Why Chu Kuangren and not them?
Unfortunately, the cultivators living near the edge of the world had never seen Chu Kuangren before, or they would not ask such a strange question.
…
Inside the mist, Chu Kuangren spotted an island surrounded by Immortal Sparks and covered with Immortal Herbs.
There were even sightings of mystical beasts roaming on the island.
“One of the three islands of the Outer Seas, Yingzhou!”
Chu Kuangren calculated with his fingers and figured out the island’s history.
The three islands of the Outer Seas were Penglai, Yingzhou, and Fangzhang.
Other than Penglai, which had an owner, the other two islands remained hidden, and no one knew where they were.
However, Chu Kuangren did not expect to find one of them here.
That island should be where Yang Mei was living.
He took a step forward and appeared above the island.
“I am Chu Kuangren, and I’m here to visit,” he said.
The powerful aura of the Immortal King swept across the island like a typhoon.
The clouds and mist were dispersed instantly.
Deep inside the island, an old man with white hair and a beard opened his eyes.
“He’s finally here.”
He flew up to the sky and appeared before Chu Kuangren.
“I am Yang Mei. Greetings, Immortal King.”
Even the oldest being in the universe must pay respect to the strongest Immortal King of the era. He showed reverence and dared not be careless.
“Did you help Luo Hou?”
“Luo Hou forced me to.”
“So it’s you,” Chu Kuangren said.
He then pointed his sword hand sign and shot a sword qi forward. It was so strong that it could shatter the heavens.
Shocked, Yang Mei channeled his Daoist law energy and summoned a spatial barrier around him.
The sword qi was distorted when it hit the barrier.
Chu Kuangren’s eyes shone with interest.
Other than being the oldest being in the Pan Gu Universe, Yang Mei was also a master of Spatial Dao.
Only a few could block his sword qi.
“Immortal King, please don’t force my hand.”
“Let me see what you can do. Then, we’ll talk,” Chu Kuangren said.
After that, he unleashed more sword qi from his finger.
Yang Mei was forced to fight.
In just a brief exchange, they had exchanged more than a dozen blows.
Chu Kuangren’s sword qi scared Yang Mei, whereas Yang Mei’s spatial technique intrigued and excited Chu Kuangren.
After a while, Chu Kuangren switched his attack style by infusing spatial technique into his attacks.
His slash could now tear the void apart.
The chaotic energy stream from the rift surrounded the sword qi, and it surprised Yang Mei even more. He quickly raised his hand and shot a beam of spatial light at the sword qi.
“Bang!”
Yang Mei was pushed back more than a hundred meters, but Chu Kuangren did not even flinch.
