961: Chapter 273: Dragon Girl Becomes a Disciple at Guiwang Mountain 961: Chapter 273: Dragon Girl Becomes a Disciple at Guiwang Mountain “Where to?” Su He asked with delight.
Although she didn’t know why Ji Feixue had caught up with them, she felt…
inexplicably happy!
A joy in her heart that she couldn’t quite put into words.
Ji Feixue looked back at him, “Can you enter Guiwang Mountain?”
“Not sure!” Su He answered straightforwardly.
If it had been in the present world, entering Guiwang Mountain wouldn’t be an issue for him.
With his Dragon Turtle identity and the relationship between his daughter and Xuanzhen Taoist, it would have been a piece of cake.
But in this era, things were much less certain.
Su He didn’t even know who the guards of Guiwang Mountain were, let alone which way the main gate opened.
If he had known they were going to Guiwang Mountain to steal treasure, he should have planned ahead with Xuanzhen Taoist, exploring the environment and layout of the mountain…
“I will get you in,” Ji Feixue said, as if she were discussing an extremely mundane matter.
Su He suddenly looked up, astonishment written all over his face, followed quickly by him shaking his head earnestly, “No need!”
Regardless of whether Thai Zu was paying attention to his dice, Su He didn’t care about stealing the treasure, successful or not, he could retreat with his whole body intact — at worst, he could just travel back through time.
Even without time-traveling, he could just blame everything on Thai Zu.
With Thai Zu’s backing, Guiwang Mountain might not be pleased with him at worst they would suppress him.
There wouldn’t be a threat to his life.
It was different for Ji Feixue, his wife had no backing!
Once he became a wanted criminal for stealing the treasure, how would Ji Feixue fare?
Wanted by Guiwang Mountain for tens of thousands of years?
That would be the least of it.
The two of them, one at Stepping Sky Five-fold, and the other at Opening Heaven Three-fold.
They didn’t fear the Common Step Heaven Seven Layers, but in front of Guiwang Mountain, they really didn’t amount to much.
Ji Feixue had already placed one hand on Su He, her voice cold as iron, “I’m not discussing this with you.”
What Ji Feixue wanted to do, how could she allow others to argue?
She was merely informing him.
This unreasonable woman.
Su He looked helpless, “Wife, don’t mess around!”
As he spoke, he felt a strong suction on his body.
Ji Feixue wasn’t listening to him at all, getting ready to throw him into her Cave World.
The suction was very strong.
A regular Opening Heaven Three-fold Divine God Beast probably couldn’t resist, but Su He could break free with a jerk.
“If you resist, I will go to Guiwang Mountain and inform them that someone is planning to steal treasure.”
Su He: “…”
This woman is so domineering!
Su He resisted briefly and then was pulled into Ji Feixue’s Cave World by her.
He fell with a splash into the vast ocean.
Ji Feixue’s human body was her Cave World, while her Dragon Body was her Inner World.
Though their natures differed, both were purely oceanic worlds in appearance.
Only, her Cave World didn’t have the Opening Heaven Divine Artifacts shaped like Dragon Balls; instead, a pair of bells floated above in the sky.
When a Cultivator steps into the Demonic Realm, there are seven Boundary Statuses: Demonic, Sword Offering, Demon Tribulation, Heaven Boundary, Human Boundary, Heavenly Tribulation, True Self.
The Sword Offering demands the forging of a “sword” within one’s body, solidifying the foundation of one’s path.
Just as a Divine God Beast must solidify its path foundation before Opening The Heaven — Su He didn’t have this; his foundation was Tai’a Mountain, Little Sixty-Four Hexagrams, a strategy that White Spirit had planned for him for ten thousand years.
The “sword” that Cultivators forge during their Sword Offering doesn’t necessarily have to be a sword; for a Pill Cultivator, it might be a Pill Furnace, and for an Array Cultivator, it could be a Formation.
It differs from person to person based on their Cultivation Technique and temperament.
Ji Feixue’s was the pair of bells.
Similarly, when stepping into the Demonic Realm and developing one’s Cave World, it is about wielding the sword to Open The Heaven.
But Ji Feixue’s Cave World was a direct transformation from her Dragon Body Inner World; it wasn’t opened separately.
However, as a Cultivator, she had all the necessary stages from Sword Offering to Demon Tribulation — not one was missing!
When a Cultivator reaches Stepping Sky Four-fold, they enter the Cave World during Demon Tribulation, taking control of it.
It’s similar to how Su Huanian underwent Demon Tribulation and then entered the Inner World.
Beneath the bells of Ji Feixue’s Cave World was her Demon Tribulation form.
It was an exact replica of Ji Feixue, cold as snow, rejecting others from a thousand miles away.
Su He looked towards the Demon Tribulation form with a wry smile, “I have an invisibility skill; I should be able to enter Guiwang Mountain safely.”
The Demon Tribulation form of Ji Feixue opened her eyes to glance at him and said emotionlessly, “Guiwang Mountain is the ancestral temple of all sects.”
If it was Thai Zu, she believed he could sneak into Guiwang Mountain without a sound!
She even believed that Thai Zu had the capability to quietly make Guiwang Mountain into the Dragon Turtle’s old home.
If it were Luo or Flame who said they could sneak in unnoticed, she might be half-convinced.
But Su He, definitely not.
Maybe if he advanced another two Heaven-fold levels, he might manage it?
“I will send you in, the rest has nothing to do with me,” Ji Feixue’s voice was clear and cold, as if she hardly knew him and was even somewhat reluctant to help him.
Su He was silent for a long while, then finally nodded slightly, “Okay, you…
take care of yourself!”
This girl obviously had the attitude that nobody could stop what she wanted to do; instead of a futile attempt to dissuade her, it was better to cooperate.
Maybe that could yield the best result?
In the present world, Ji Feixue had no grudges with Guiwang Mountain, so maybe this treasure-stealing escapade would go smoothly?
Su He fell silent again and began to check and analyze the information Ji Feixue had previously sent him, one item after another.
Most of it was hearsay, various rumors.
There was even one that claimed all the Divine God Beasts originated from Guiwang Mountain and were raised by the Taoist Ancestor — pure nonsense.
The Boundary Statuses of Cultivators were derived from the Divine God Beasts, which means the Taoist Ancestor had studied the Divine God Beasts, and they likely existed before the Taoist Ancestor…
At the very least, as contemporaries!
Taoist Ancestor and Tao Master are not the same.
The Taoist Ancestor is the Ancestor Master of Guiwang Mountain, the origin of the Cultivators’ path of cultivation.
The Tao Master is the current Lord of Guiwang Mountain, the present Ancestor of the mountain.
Just as the relationship between the Dragon Turtle First Ancestor and Thai Zu.
While the Guiwang Mountain Sect Leader is equivalent to the Leader of Dragon Turtle Clan — there is no Clan Leader for the Dragon Turtles now, in later times Uncle Luo held some authority of Clan Leader, but he wasn’t one yet.
However, there was one rumor that was particularly interesting.
It claimed that Guiwang Mountain was jointly created by the Four Spirits’ First Ancestor, that there was no real Taoist Ancestor, and that the Taoist Ancestor was just an incarnation of the Four Ling Ao Zu.
