Chapter 451 - 443: Five Elements Peaks
At that very moment, a colossal mountain peak appeared before them, suspended in mid-air. Its sheer size was no less than that of an entire dynasty—it might have even been larger!
Five colossal peaks towered toward the sky in a perfectly symmetrical formation, encircling a central summit and appearing to hold it aloft. This sight alone was breathtaking, but the mountain’s wonders didn’t end there. Most strikingly, each of the six peaks was a completely different color. From Mu Chen’s vantage point, the peak directly facing him was a striking crimson. At a glance, faint, indomitable flames seemed to flicker and rise from its surface.
Flanking it were an earthy-gray peak and a sapphire-blue one. Since these three peaks were red, gray, and blue, the remaining two surrounding peaks must be gold and green. Beams of light cascaded down like a sacred glow, bathing the floating mountain in a vast, shimmering curtain of light that rendered it translucent.
Just from this sight, a powerful sense of familiarity washed over the new members, reminding them of something integral to their very existence...
The Five Elements of the Heaven and Earth Primordial Power! The unique nature of these six peaks had to be intimately connected to it!
This was the conclusion every new member reached at that moment!
Of course, the one most profoundly affected by Holy Tomb Mountain was none other than Mu Chen. From the moment he drew near, the Nine Attributes Dantian within him had begun to spin wildly. Ethereal streams of Five Elements Elemental Power poured through his pores, converging in his meridians and surging toward his Dantian.
’This feeling is...’
His brow twitched. Mu Chen could clearly feel several conscious summons emanating from Holy Tomb Mountain, as if invisible threads were pulling at him, urging him to enter. The sensation was inexplicably alluring, yet it also filled him with a strange sense of confusion.
’It’s not a summon from an Ultimate Attribute Spirit.’
After carefully examining the sensation, he realized he could sense a call from the Wood Attribute among the summons. He shook his head. He could now say for certain that this call was not coming from an Ultimate Attribute Spirit. His heart, which had just begun to race with excitement, gradually calmed down.
"Heh heh, Xiao Chenzi, what’s with that look on your face?"
A teasing, devilishly charming voice echoed in Mu Chen’s mind. It was, of course, the Profound Old Ghost. Hearing that voice, Mu Chen’s heart began to race with excitement all over again. He knew the Profound Old Ghost never wasted his breath; if he was speaking up, then this summons had to mean something incredibly beneficial for him.
Maintaining an impassive expression, Mu Chen pressed a hand to his chest as his consciousness flew into his mind.
"Master."
Mu Chen greeted the white figure beside him respectfully.
The Profound Old Ghost smiled faintly and waved his hand. "No need to be so serious. Your Master isn’t some stuffy old fossil from the mortal world. Just act natural."
"Uh..."
Mu Chen rubbed his nose, looking a little resigned. A moment later, he remembered the strange phenomenon from before. He was just about to ask about it when a gesture from the Profound Old Ghost stopped him.
"I know what you want to ask, but you’ll find out for yourself soon enough." The Profound Old Ghost turned to face the direction of Holy Tomb Mountain, a mysterious smile playing on his lips. He patted Mu Chen’s shoulder and said, "I was worried about whether you’d be able to fulfill your promise to that kid, Qin Shang, a year from now. But now, it looks like the problem has solved itself."
Seeing Mu Chen’s confused expression, the Profound Old Ghost grinned and chuckled. "To think that in the hundred thousand years I’ve been dormant, so many wondrous things have appeared in the world. Xiao Chenzi, trust me, your strength is about to improve by leaps and bounds here!"
"But first things first, we have to get inside..."
