Chapter 755: The Gift of the Gap
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
After the exploration by generations of powerful cultivators, the veil over the three celestial mountains was beginning to fade, and they laid in wait for a fortunate passer-by to control them .
Amongst the three, Penglai Celestial Mountain had a sea on its own . The waters were murky and dark, giving it the name 'Dark Sea' . There was no wind but yet there were powerful tides that surged up to over hundred feet high and moved with the mountain, protecting it wherever it went .
This Dark Sea was different from the Netherworld Sea and its real name was Vast Black Sea .
The intensity of its blackness was comparable to the darkness of the sky above . Its vastness was comparable to that of the void battleground where an ocean of space exists . Hence, it was given the name Vast Black Sea .
For the common folk who wanted to access Penglai Celestial Mountain, the Dark Sea was an effective deterrent .
Even for the Immortal Soul Third Level cultivators who tried bashing their way through, the pressure from the void of the Ying Sea would remain as a substantial challenge .
These obstacles applied to the other two mountains as well .
All three mountains were protected by some divine power . But just as the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain was subdued by the Zhou Emperor, the formations around Yingzhou Celestial Mountains were getting weaker, and people had found ways to cross the Dark Sea .
This amazed Lin Feng . The collective power of mankind was overwhelming . This was like a challenging game where while individuals failed, the combined abilities and intellect of additional players who joined in the fray would allow the group to solve one of nature's greatest puzzles .
As generation after generation of people came and passed, they solved the puzzles and had new breakthroughs . The final breakthrough seemed to be on its way for this difficult puzzle .
Logically speaking, even if Lin Feng and crew did not succeed in this attempt, it would not be long before someone actually gained control over them .
But it was difficult to ascertain yet who would have the final laugh .
Lin Feng looked and Red Dragon King and said, "If your methods really work, then I shall allow you to follow . "
After all, one had to find the mountain even before conquering the seas .
Red Dragon King replied, "In actual fact, this method has been tested and proven by my clan’s Purple Sea Dragon King thousand of years ago . "
"But the Hades Emperor’s sudden arrival resulted in Purple Sea Dragon King loingt contact with the Penglai Celestial Mountain, allowing the Dark Sea to regenerate and conceal the mountain thereafter . "
"It was a lose-lose situation even for Hades Emperor," Red Dragon King continued with a sigh .
A thought flashed through Lin Feng's head . But he showed no expression and only nodded in agreement .
Red Dragon King added, "As the leader of the Celestial Sect, you ought to know that in the Ying Sea there exist a Space Monster that entraps anyone who enters . It will then proceed to kill them and feed on their energy . "
Lin Feng nodded . He had encountered such creatures before and even slayed a few .
"These monsters can move freely through the mysterious space around the mountains, and could even swim in the Dark Sea . Purple Sea Dragon King knew this and captured thousands of this monsters, collecting their blood and soul and used it to pave a way to the Penglai Celestial Mountain . " said Red Dragon King .
Lin Feng considered his words for a moment and ascertained that what the Red Dragon King had shared followed a sound logical before replying, "You may follow . "
Solar Sage did not know what the other three immortal soul elders said to Lin Feng due to the usage of voice projection . But from their communication, there seemed to be nothing to hide, and from their expressions of delight, they must have provided substantial information for Lin Feng to allow them to follow him .
Solar Sage had his doubts . He had some information from Golden Roc Grand Sage, but did not know if it was worth sharing with Lin Feng .
He looked once more at the golden thread created by the Green Glass Soul before deciding to swallow his pride and proceed to share with Lin Feng, "The Zhou Emperor might have the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain, but it does not mean that their control over the mountain is firm . "
"The shadows of dragons that float above the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain were created by the infiltration of countless dragons eons ago . Their attempt to penetrate the defenses left a serious dent in the defensive mechanism of the celestial mountain . "
"The Zhou Emperor probably leveraged on those weaknesses to come up with a strategy to break through," said Solar Sage .
He continued, "If what Master Lin said about the dragon shadows being the same as before, then perhaps the Zhou Emperor himself has yet to mend those gaps in the defenses . "
"To integrate the old and new defenses together would be an arduous process . The Zhou Emperor Liang Pan and the Marquis of Xuanji Zhu Hongwu did not have much time . Relying on the split of Immortal Stage Level 1 Liang Pan would take forever to complete the refining process . "
