Chapter 2737 - The Immortal Ascension Ladder Appears
Chapter 2737: The Immortal Ascension Ladder Appears Translations
Since Young Master Jiu was travelling alone, this elderly man couldn’t have been with him. However, after observing them seated together, He Shu assumed that they had met along the road.
Feng Jiu gave a nod and looked back at the group behind He Shu. “You don’t seem to be slow either.”
He Shu smiled. “If I hadn’t run into Young Master Jiu along the way, I probably wouldn’t be here yet.”
“Oh?” The elderly man smiled at Feng Jiu and said with a laugh, “Young friend has even helped others while on the way?”
“Do I seem to be someone who will not help others?” Feng Jiu arched her brow.
“Hahaha. That’s not something I’d say. I just didn’t expect it.” The elderly man raised his head and laughed. After all, the group was far from weak, but they needed help from this young man. This confirmed his hunch that this young man was not ordinary.
He Shu told the group to take a seat before returning to sit next to Feng Jiu and the elderly man. “It’s unusual to run into old friends here, but what are you doing at the Immortal Ascension Ladder?”
Don’t tell him that Young Master Jiu had also come to try climbing the Immortal Ascension Ladder?
Feng Jiu smiled as he heard this. “This old friend had previously asked me this question, and you have now done the same. Because we’re all here, whatever you intend to do here, I’m coming here to do the same. There’s no need to ask this question.”
After a brief moment of surprise, He Shu burst out laughing. “Yes, I am indeed ignorant. I shall make amends to Young Master Jiu immediately.” He took the wine from the space and poured three cups, and then picked up his wine cup and drank it in one gulp.
Upon seeing this, the elderly man also raised his wine cup. After motioning to the other two, he sipped from the cup and set it down.
Feng Jiu enjoyed drinking wine. She picked up the wine after seeing the other man pour it for her and tasted it. Even though it was a good wine, it was still inferior to the wine in her cellar.
They sat around and chatted while waiting for the immortal ascension ladder to appear. Some groups came here every now and then. They would come over and ask after seeing the dried lake, but nobody knew what was going on.
......
“Strangely, there used to be a lake here, but it had dried up by the time we arrived, taking the golden lotus and the white python with it. The white python has devoured a large number of cultivators who were after the golden lotus.”
The elderly man recounted this story while looking at the dry lake in front of him. “That golden lotus is a good thing. People say that the lotus seed is a treasure that helps one’s strength advance. But, of course, no one knows what happened to the golden lotus.”
Feng Jiu coughed awkwardly. “Perhaps it was picked, or the lake has long been dry, so the golden lotus has long vanished.”
“The white python in there is a sacred beast. It’s huge and has a powerful fighting capacity. But I’m not sure why it is currently unseen. Otherwise, we may be able to determine what is occurring here.” The elderly man spoke while stroking his beard and gazing forward.
However, as he stared ahead, a look of surprise flashed across his eyes. He immediately stood up, stretched out his hand, pointed forward, and exclaimed, “Look! That’s the Immortal Ascension Ladder! The Immortal Ascension Ladder has appeared!”
Most of the cultivators in the area stood up in amazement as soon as they heard his cry and turned to see the ladder rolling down from the sky like a misty cloud.
