Divine God Against The Heavens

When Ye Xiao was about to exit the city gate so that he can go to the Cloudsmoke Forest again, a guard came and told him to stop.

Ye Xiao stopped and looked at that guard. It was exactly the previous guard who wanted to obtain benefits from him when he first came here, in the Southwood City.

"What do you want?" Ye Xiao asked coldly. He was about to go out so that he can go back to the Cloudsmoke Forest and search for the location where a treasure was about to born.

Ye Xiao did not wanted to cause trouble but the trouble itself came knocking at his door.

"I don't want anything from you. It is just that the City Lord of this Southwood City want to meet you. Please come with me and meet with the City Lord." That guard said.

Ye Xiao frowned his brows. He has not done any crime or any kind of thing here, in the Southwood City which can attract the attention of the City Lord toward him then exactly why the City Lord of the Southwood City wanted to meet him?

After thinking for a while, he suddenly came to realization that all of these things are happening because of spirit stones.

"Damn it. Looks like, I have to be careful while spending the spirit stones otherwise it will cause many unnecessary trouble." Ye Xiao cursed in his heart but on the surface he smiled at the guard and said, "I am in hurry but please report the City Lord that I will pay him my visit when I'll come back again."

Not wanting to start any argument, he secretly put five low grade spirit stones in the guard's hand and hurriedly left the city.

That guard wanted to stop Ye Xiao from leaving the city but when he saw five shining light blue crystals in his hand, he stopped himself and did not tried to make things difficult for Ye Xiao.

While Ye Xiao was leaving in hurry, he was also carefully observing the actions of that guard. When he saw that the guard did not stopped him again from leaving the city, he heaved a long sigh of relief.

F*ck! I don't know who said it but this saying is really true that money can almost solve ninety percent of the problems.

But even if I have a whole mine of low grade spirit stones, it is not easy to take advantage of me. Next time when I'll return here again, I'll definitely let you know the consequences of taking advantage of me.

.....

Ye Xiao ran toward the Cloudsmoke Forest and in his way there, he saw hundreds of martial artists moving toward the Cloudsmoke Forest just like him.

He did not stopped and continued to move forward. After obtaining the information about the Golden Fragrance Country, Ye Xiao knew that on his way to the Cloudsmoke Forest, he will encounter place known as The Hundred Mountain Range.

The Hundred Mountain Range was actually a continuous mountain range with rugged terrain. The hundred Mountain Range is known as the Hundred Mountain Range not because there were hundred mountains here. There were only twenty mountains here. When one climb at the top of any of these mountains, they'll see an illusion that there is hundreds of mountains standing tall here. Only because there is such illusions on top of each mountains that this place is known as the Hundred Mountain Range.

There is a legend about this place that tens of thousands of years ago, there were no Hundred Mountain Range. There used to be a vast river in this place instead of these twenty mountains. One day, two experts came here from some unknown place and started fighting. They fought a bloody battle with each other because of some sort of treasure.

The outcome of that battle was unknown but it is said that after that bloody battle, this Hundred Mountain Range appeared here and the previous vast river shrunken and became a small river. This river is exactly the river where Ye Xiao fell after being hit by the attack of the Barbaric Bulls' King.

After that battle between those two unknown experts, many people came here to investigate the reason of the appearance of this Hundred Mountain Range but they failed to find anything. They did not even found any corpse here thus the outcome of that battle remain unknown.

No one knows, where those two experts went after fighting a terrifying battle here. Some people say that those two people were immortals. They died here and before their death, they build a magnificent tomb for themselves and that tomb is this Hundred Mountain Range.

Some people opposed them and said that they were unable to decide the winner and because of this, they stopped fighting and went their own way. And the Hundred Mountain Range is just a result of their fighting. They are someone who are standing at the peak of the Azure Sky Continent and it is normal for them to change the size and shape of land with their capabilities.

There were many other rumours like this but which one is true, no one knows.

Slowly, many magical beasts started to come here and take shelter in the Hundred Mountain Range. After just five hundred years of the appearance of the Hundred Mountain Range, it became the forbidden land. It became a forbidden land because of some events that happen here. It is said that every hundred years, a strange phenomenon take place here. All twenty mountains becomes illusory and started moving in circular motion.

Many people again came here so that they can find the reason of this phenomenon but after entering the into this mountain range during the phenomenon, only one tenth of those people came back with extremely terrified face.

They said that there is a very terrifying demon sleeping inside the mountain range. Previously, when they entered, this terrifying demon woke up and started attacking them. They fought a very hard battle against the demon but even after that, only one tenth of them survived. As for the rest of people, they were eaten by that terrifying demon.

There were even some cultivators at the Martial Ancestor Realm that were eaten by that demon.

Those people who survived and managed to come out, rose in strength after just tens of years.

How can only those people rose in strength, who came out from the mountain range? Why is that no one else apart from them gained strength?

Many questions started to come out one by one. People began suspecting and thought that those people did not told the whole truth so they started forcing those people who survived and rose in strength.

Being forced by the many people, those people who survived finally revealed an astonishing truth. And this truth was something that later made this Hundred Mountain Range a forbidden land of the Golden Fragrance Country.

Those people revealed that even though there is a terrifying demon inside the Hundred Mountain Range, there is also many opportunities inside. Many rare herbs, ores and treasures are inside the Hundred Mountain Range.

But obtaining these treasures is very difficult. Even the Martial Ancestor Realm cultivators can not obtain these treasures easily let alone cultivators below the Martial Ancestor Realm.

When this matter was made public, many people started to enter the Hundred Mountain Range even after knowing that they can die here. They risked their lives only because of one reason which was they wanted to obtain those treasures so that they can also rise in strength.

But to their disappointment, they failed to find even a single treasure inside the Hundred Mountain Range.

After years of searching and researching, a conclusion was made. That was that only when a strange phenomenon takes place here, can they find treasures inside the Hundred Mountain Range.

After hundred years of the previous phenomenon, another phenomenon appeared in this place. The scene was exactly the same as before. All twenty mountains became illusory and it started moving in circular motion.

When this happen, many people again entered in the Hundred Mountain Range at this time. And everything after that was the same as what happen previously.

This time, only less than one tenth of the people who entered in the Hundred Mountain Range managed to come out after surviving the same disaster.

They also said that there really is a terrifying demon inside the Hundred Mountain Range. After surviving this disaster, these people also rose in strength after some years.

From then onward, every hundred years, many people started to enter into the Hundred Mountain Range. At this time, this mountain range also became the forbidden land.

But from the last three times, no one manage to come alive after entering into the Hundred Mountain Range. People said that maybe, the demon inside became stronger and it ate all those people who entered into the Hundred Mountain Range.
