"In the southern part of Feather City, at Feather Peak, there was once buried a sword specifically designed to counter the most malevolent forces in the world. It played a significant role during our great battle against the Demon Clan. After the last time Water God Gonggong used it to severely injure Brahma Demon King, the divine power of the sword greatly diminished, and it was buried within Feather Mountain."
Wang Long frowned and said, "But since you just mentioned that the sword has lost most of its divine power and is no longer valued by your divine race, what use is it to bring it back?"
Not only Wang Long, but many others present shared the same doubt.
"Hehe, saying that its divine power has greatly diminished only applies when dealing with the Demon Clan, especially the Ancient Demons. However, it is still very useful against such evil and malevolent forces."
"That's wonderful!" Lin Jueying had regained some composure reminiscent of before the great battle, but those who had seen through his true nature no longer regarded him with any respect. "But does Lord Shunshen know exactly where that sword is buried on Feather Peak? Moreover, the area is surrounded by dense poisonous mist; how are we supposed to retrieve it?"
"Don't worry. If there's anyone in this world who can traverse this poisonous mist, it's definitely Shunshen. I just wonder if Lord Shunshen can take me along; it's always better to have someone else for support."
Shun Liu roughly estimated the width of the poisonous mist and readily agreed to Wang Long's request: "No problem. Just follow my instructions when the time comes, and we will be able to pass directly beyond the range of the poisonous mist."
"In that case, why not let Old Cai join us as well! I'm really curious to see what kind of treasure that sword is compared to my big knife!"
"Not possible." Upon hearing Cai Burin's suggestion, Shunshen immediately shook his head. "Don't forget, I can only take one person with me. Bringing Wang Long along is already pushing my limits. If I take another person, I can't guarantee we will make it through smoothly. If anything goes wrong and we fall into that poisonous mist, do you think we three will survive?"
Others respected and feared Cai Burin for his immense strength and fiery temper, but to Shunshen, he was merely a 'little fellow,' so his tone was more direct.
"Uh." Cai Burin didn't want to argue with this Ancient Deity; after pondering for a moment, he realized it made sense and could only step back.
Wang Long consoled him: "Even if Brother Cai can't accompany us to Feather Peak this time, at least you can hold down the fort in the city. Although we've achieved victory now, on one hand, the Third Realm may not be completely satisfied; on the other hand, both Shunshen and I need a top expert here to stabilize things while we're away. Otherwise, if we leave no one behind for an extended period, those warriors and elders in Feather will feel abandoned by us. At that time, Brother Cai's presence will be crucial!"
Upon hearing this, Cai Burin finally calmed down: "Alright then. You all can rest assured outside; from this day forward, I will ensure that Feather City operates completely under my control without any mistakes!"
The speaker was unaware, but the listener was attentive. Lin Jueying, who seemed to be marginalized, felt quite displeased when he heard Cai Buwei treating Feather City as if it were his personal property to do with as he pleased. This was disrespectful to all the people of Feather City.
Seeing that Lin Jueying appeared to have calmed down and was not causing a scene, everyone naturally began to ignore him. However, they forgot that there are people in this world who do not express their emotions outwardly. When certain feelings build up to the point of eruption, they often act in ways that astonish everyone.
After arranging the entire situation in Feather City, Cai Burin, although powerful and quick-witted, was sometimes overly impulsive. Moreover, he was not originally from Feather City.
Therefore, they assigned an assistant to Cai Burin, which included the former head of Feather City, Third Elder Lin Jueying. However, they were relieved to find that Lin Jueying seemed to have no objections to this arrangement. With him leading, others would certainly refrain from saying anything against Cai Burin.
Once Wang Long and Shunshen were prepared, they directly crossed into a Void. Wang Long's vision went dark for a while until Shunshen pulled him out. At that moment, he could clearly sense the layers of Toxic Corpses' bodies and the deadly poisonous mist behind them.
"Feather Peak should be straight ahead. We shouldn't delay; let's set off immediately," Wang Long said as he identified their location and leaped forward towards it.
With a flash of Eerie Light, Shunshen effortlessly moved slightly ahead of Wang Long. "Now it's just the two of us. Earlier you mentioned you came to the Northern Qian Mountain Range looking for me; now we can finally talk."
Wang Long seized this opportunity and replied quickly, "Actually, you can already see that I am not one of the divine beings; I am not even from the Divine Realm! I come from what you call the Zero Realm!"
"Zero Realm!" Despite having some lingering doubts in his heart, hearing Wang Long confirm his suspicions made Shunshen's heart race with disbelief. "I can't imagine how you managed to break through such constraints of power. Moreover, I remember when our divine race completely withdrew from the Zero Realm; we left behind a projection. With your strength, even if you found the Gateway to the Abyss and figured out how to unlock it, that projection would definitely not let you go!"
"The process is indeed very complicated, and with our current abilities, we still cannot eliminate that monster—the projection you mentioned. We can only temporarily injure it so it cannot cause trouble for a while. Haha, I didn't expect Lord Shunshen to hold us in such high regard. So what do you think our purpose in seeking you out is?"
"Is it related to the Gateway to the Abyss?" Shunshen replied with a calm smile. "Your guess is correct. When we fully withdrew from the Zero Realm, those three Gateways to the Abyss were indeed created by me. I know how to destroy them so that projection can no longer control you through those Gateways."
"You truly are perceptive, Shunshen; you've guessed our entire purpose right away. However, I'm curious why you always refer to that deity as 'the projection.' I wonder why he would project himself in the Zero Realm since it would affect his own power? And who is the true body of that projection?"
Shunshen asked curiously, "You've been in the Divine Realm for quite some time now; haven't you asked anyone about these questions?"
Wang Long shook his head and said, "I know too little about the situation in the Divine Realm. Asking too many questions might bring unforeseen consequences. I don't want to worry every time I encounter a strong enemy, fearing that someone might ambush me from behind. Moreover, if the divine race harbors hostility towards us in Zero Realm, revealing my identity would be like throwing myself onto the Spirit Origin Bullet."
"Alright, since you trust me so much, I can assure you that as long as you don't do anything to harm the divine race as a whole, I won't hold it against you."
With this concern alleviated, Wang Long felt much more relaxed, and his pace quickened significantly.
Seeing Wang Long darting off towards Feather Peak again, Shunshen was momentarily taken aback, then smiled and shook his head before disappearing into the air once more.
The area around Feather Peak had once been a major battlefield during the great war of the divine race. At that time, the Divine Realm's control over the Northern Qian Mountain Range was far less than it is today, and Feather City was one of their direct confrontations with the Demon Clan.
Therefore, what lay buried here was not just a divine sword of the divine race. There were also treasures from various Ancient Demons and Ancient Deities, even their remains. However, the few remains that Wang Long encountered did not meet the conditions for extracting any Primordial Power. Not to mention that there was already an abundance of Primordial Power within the Divine Realm, making such extraction unnecessary.
Moreover, in this area, while the terrain was treacherous, what frustrated Wang Long even more was that remnants of Spiritual Vortexes from that great war still lingered. These would often appear suddenly without warning amidst the mountains, catching Wang Long off guard several times.
After a difficult climb, he had just reached halfway up Feather Peak when suddenly, sounds of fighting came from another side.
Wang Long exchanged glances with Shunshen and slowly crept towards the source of the noise.
