Chapter 913: Heaven Saint Palace

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

How fast were the movement techniques of the four people? Journeying all the way towards the southeast direction, in just a few days, they’d covered several thousand li of distance. In these few days, the four practically did not say anything to each other.

Cheng Yin Xiao and Qu Wu Hui were still more broad minded; however, Qiao Ying was filled with worries all the way as she thought about the War for Seizing the Heavens. She’d actually grown much more distraught looking over just this few days. With her cultivation, it should not have been easy for her to get to such a state. But the worries weighing down her heart were too difficult to dispel.

The four travelled a distance apart from each other, staying away from human civilization. The further they travelled, the more desolated the lands became. In that way, they travelled for another few days and climbed to the top of a tall mountain. Looking into the horizon, the sight before them was an endless ocean of mountains, seemingly stretching to the edge of the sky.

Looking back, the scenery was as beautiful as a piece of painting. Far away, it was still possible to make out the outlines of the nearest town. However, it was so far away that it was blurry and difficult to see.

“Jun Mo Xie, the name of this mountain is called ‘Realm of Man’! Because the north face of the mountain is facing the human world, while to the south, it’s nothing but a land of desolation!” Qiao Ying said as she looked at the last vestiges of human civilization far off to the north.

“Realm of Man? What an odd name,” Jun Mo Xie replied. At the same time, he was thinking to himself deep in his heart. Qiao Ying had been ignoring the most of this journey; but now, she was taking the initiative to talk to him. Why was that?

“Do you see that? The further north one goes from this mountain, the denser the human population becomes. All the countless human legacies and tens of thousand of years of civilization development are gathered there, forming the flourishing age of humans we have today!”

Qiao Ying looked coldly at Jun Mo Xie. “And the only thing protecting this way of life is the War for Seizing the Heavens! Look over there; all the way south of here is the Pillar of Heavens Mountains! And the War for Seizing the Heavens will take place over there!”

Jun Mo Xie raised his eye and looked into the distance. Among the hazy mist far away, the outlines of a majestic and straight mountain could be seen, towering all the way into the sky. The main body of the mountain was completely covered by the voluminous clouds and it was impossible to see where its peak was, as if it stretched all the way to the edge of the sky!

“If the War for Seizing the Heavens ultimately fails, the strange races will invade the world of humans. And all that we have achieved in these tens of thousands of years would very possibly be destroyed in a single instant! The peaceful world right now would quickly turn into hell on earth! Furthermore, all humans would probably end up becoming slaves and food of the strange races!”

Qiao Ying stared coldly at him and asked heavily, “And just a few days ago, the 30 something people you killed were experts that were supposed to represent the human race to fight in the upcoming War for Seizing the Heavens! Do you know what the deaths of those people mean?”

“What does it mean?” Jun Mo Xie tilted his head and asked.

“It means that for the upcoming War for Seizing the Heavens, the Xuan Xuan Continent will be defeated for the first time! The invasion of the strange races is soon to become a guaranteed matter! The destruction of life on the continent, and the tears and hardships of the world is right before our eyes!” Qiao Ying’s lips trembled with emotion, and her eyes blazed like two balls of flames. “And the reason for all their suffering was because of that one battle of yours! Jun Mo Xie, do you not feel any guilt in your conscience?”

“Guilt? Why should I have a guilty conscience?” Jun Mo Xie shrugged his shoulders lightly. “Those things you said... the suffering of the world, invasion of the strange races... what... the f*ck do they have to do with me?”

“You!” Qiao Ying had never expected that the young hero who wielded such great strength to utter such irresponsible words. Her face turned white from anger, and she couldn’t say anything in that moment.

Jun Mo Xie completely did not place Qiao Ying’s expectations and disappointment in his eyes at all. Turning his eyes away, he continued emotionlessly. “I’ve already grown sick of hearing about all that stuff about the safety of the people and the peace of the continent long ago! In the future, I don’t wish to hear those irksome words ever again. Just mentioning it in front of this Young Master makes my balls ache! And don’t try to link all these nonsense with this Young Master. This Young Master does not have anything to do with it at all!”

“You don’t want to hear about it? But you’re harming the interests of all the people in this continent!” Qiao Ying’s voice turned shrill and sharp. “The War for Seizing the Heavens is going to fail because of you! Because of you, everyone’s life will be plunged into suffering! You did not kill the common people, but the common people are going to die because of you! What qualifications do you have to say that you don’t want to hear about it? How does it have nothing to do with you? Do you know how many people in this world will lose their lives and fall into misery because of you?”

“Bullsh*t! The people of the continent are dying because of me? Everything in this world has a cause, and there are no waves without wind. The reason I killed is because others want to kill me!”

Jun Mo Xie snorted with rage. “This daddy had never once gone to offend your three Holy Lands of my own initiative! This daddy had never even thought about bothering you all! But you guys f*cking came to look for me, behaving like thieves and harlots while pretending to be noble saints, finding trouble for me time and time again without rest! No matter what I tried, the bunch of you were like dogskin plaster, impossible to get rid of! Now, you actually have the face to question me? Even if all the people in the world died, it would be the responsibility of your dogh*t lands! What the f*ck does it have to do with this daddy!

“This daddy was originally living the life of a rich young master in Tian Xiang City, clad in riches and comforts, enjoying a life of luxury! But I was chased around and forced to a dead end because of you all, forced to abandon my home and move into Tian Fa Forest to live with millions of Xuan Beasts!

“This daddy had already taken so many steps back, but the lot of you were still unwilling to let it rest, going as far as to pressure my relatives and deal with my friends. As long as anyone had any sort of relationship with my Jun Family, you people would not let them off at all, even going as far as to run into Tian Fa Forest to assassinate me. If not for this daddy having some skills, and some hidden trump cards, I would have already been destroyed countless times by the sinister schemes of you bunch of bastards! How utterly despicable!

“Guardians of the continent? The three Holy Lands are simply a bunch of scoundrels—the three of you included! To think that you still have the face to talk to me about justice and the common people? Try asking yourselves; are you fit to do so?! After failing to kill me and instead ending up being killed by me, you all come to blame me for dooming the common people? Is there a greater joke in this world?

“Since you all want to kill me, and even tried to do so on many occasions, then I shall kill you all off in advance! The matter is just that simple. So what if you all are really doing everything for the sake of the world? Even if it’s for the sake of the universe, and you are the only thing propping up the world, and killing you would result in the entire universe collapsing... as long as you want to kill me, I will still strike back without hesitation! At the most, both sides will be destroyed, and all of us will die together!”

Jun Mo Xie smiled cruely and continued. “Everyone only has a single life anyway. A person will create more damage as long as their alive! So what if the entire world is plunged into suffering? That kind of stuff is completely unimportant to this daddy. If you expect this daddy to be noble, that’s impossible. This daddy has never thought of myself as some kind of noble hero or a charitable soul. You’re gravely mistaken if you think that you can talk to this daddy about the common people! So what if this continent really turns chaotic? After another tens of thousand or hundreds of thousands of years, it would be a new world again! But please don’t frame yourselves as saviours of the world. That is exceedingly disgusting!”

Young Master Jun snorted venomously and looked at Qiao Ying. “Have you heard of an idiom about a monkey wearing a hat? Can a monkey call itself a king just because it has a hat on? Tell me, is your three Holy Lands laughable or not? Comparatively speaking, you all are nothing but a bunch of monkeys acting imposingly; what rights do you have to represent the entire world? What rights do you have to proclaim yourselves saviours of the world? OK, even if you want to think yourselves as saviours of the world, it’s fine. But don’t use that as an excuse to pretend that you’re infinitely better and more morally upright than others, and at the same time, use that self proclaimed nobleness to attack others! You all do not have those qualifications! And you’re not worth that much!”

Jun Mo Xie spoke very swiftly, not even realizing that he’d used the english word ‘OK’...

“Taking another 10,000 steps back, even if you truly want to prop yourselves up as gods and saviours because of some of the actions you did, that’s still none of other people’s business. Don’t go around expecting the world to be grateful to you! Three advanced in years and highly experienced Seniors, I guess that you should know the difference between initiative and passivity? You all did those things out of your own volition; nobody ever put a knife against your necks and asked you to sacrifice, right?! You could have done nothing! This is not your responsibility... understand?! Let me tell you, this world will not change because it lacks somebody! Even if there’s no three Holy Lands, the strange races might not necessarily be able to anything too. Understand?! How absolutely laughable!”

After scolding to his heart’s content, Jun Mo Xie felt a satisfying feeling flowing through his entire body.

But after he finished with his whole tirade, the three people beside him actually did not say a single word. Instead, their faces were sullen in thought, as if they had much to mull over.

The group stood at the peak of this ‘Realm of Man’ in complete silence and after a long time, Qu Wu Hui sighed longly and said, “Let’s go. There’s still three days journey from here...”

Qiao Ying, who was furious earlier, now had a heavy expression as nodded. She did not continue to berate Jun Mo Xie, and the four ran along quietly, like four shooting stars streaking across the land...

The saying that ‘horses run themselves to death whilst setting their sights on the mountain before them’, was indeed true. From the peak of ‘Realm of Man’, they had clearly saw Pillar of Heavens Mountains. But despite the four top tier experts’ frenzied speed, they still hadn’t even reached the foot of the mountain despite rushing for two full days.

Jun Mo Xie also felt it was somewhat odd. With a distance of thousands of li between them, how did he even manage to see Pillar of Heavens Mountains? Even if his eyesight was good, it shouldn’t be to such an extent right? Afterall, the distance was really a bit too much...

As if he had seen through Jun Mo Xie’s doubt, Qu Wu Hui smiled lightly and said, “You’ll understand when you’re there.”

Strangely, the three’s attitude towards him had improved greatly after he’d given them the grand scolding. This caused Jun Mo Xie to feel somewhat curious in his heart. Could it be that these three fellows were simply itching for a scolding? Or perhaps, they were those fabled masochists? The kind that simply liked being abused when they had nothing to do? Perhaps this Young Master should scold them every few days... after all, it’s just working my mouth a bit, and it’s not really anything strenuous!

Just as he was considering the feasibility of this thought, Qu Wu Hui and the others suddenly stopped. With a light step, he also stopped instantly. A heartfelt sigh of relief came out from Qiao Ying’s mouth as she pointed. “That mountain in front is the Heaven Saint Palace...”

There was a simple happiness in her voice, of one returning home after a long time.

Jun Mo Xie raised his head and looked, only to see that tens of li away, there was a towering mountain that seemed to have risen out of the ground. At the peak of the mountain, the outlines of a few houses could be seen. As they moved closer, Jun Mo Xie suddenly realized that those were simply ordinary thatched cottages! A few lush boughs propped up the main frame of the cottages, and green shoots even grew from the sides. The roof of the cottages were made out of numerous vines overlapped with each other...

These were crude structures that could not be more crude!

“That’s the legendary Heaven Saint Palace?” Jun Mo Xie widened his eyes and asked with disbelief. In his mind, the legendary Heaven Saint Palace was a resplendent palace filled with gold and jade. Who would have thought that it would be such a simple and desolated sight?

Qiao Ying smiled and nodded proudly. “Yes, this is our Heaven Saint Palace!”

“Impressive!” Jun Mo Xie praised from the bottom of his heart. For the strongest experts of the continent to be willing to stay in such a place, no matter for what reason, it was enough to cause others to feel admiration for them!

“Many thanks.” Qiao Ying smiled lightly. She felt extremely satisfied with Jun Mo Xie’s words.

She could tell that this praise from Jun Mo Xie had come from his heart, and her image of Jun Mo Xie could not help but to improve. Pointing, she said, “300 li east of Heaven Saint Palace is the mountains where the Elusive World of Immortals live. Another 1,000 something li away, you’ll find the Supreme Golden City! Further west, about 2,000 li away, is the Illusory Blood Sea. The mountain that our Heaven Saint Palace is sitting on is called ‘Mount Heaven Saint’ by the three Holy Lands. Just a thousand south of Mount Heaven Saint is the place which the fate of the continent is decided—the Pillar of Heavens Mountains! There’s a vast open area at the top of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains due to a collapse, and that is where the War for Seizing the Heavens take place!”

“So it’s all the way out here... this place is truly difficult to find!” Jun Mo Xie’s mouth trembled, and he asked, “Are those three places also the same as the Heaven Saint Palace?”

Qiao Ying’s face turned somewhat awkward as she coughed. “Those three places... cough cough, are somewhat... more gorgeous than here...”

Jun Mo Xie made a long ‘ohhhhh’ sound and nodded. “Slightly more gorgeous is it? What kind of saying is that! To actually let their own old ancestors to stay in such a crude place; if they themselves were also living simply, that would be fine. But it’s a pity that the facts might be quite different...”

“Humility and frugality has always been a tradition of our Heaven Saint Palace!” On the side, Cheng Yin Xiao mumbled blandly, as if rebutting unhappily.

“What a good tradition... it’s really not easy that you haven’t died of cold and hunger. Thankfully, you have great Xuan cultivation ah... Xuan Qi is truly some good stuff! At least, one wouldn’t starve to death!” Young Master Jun sighed and said.

In an instant, the faces of the three turned black...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“So this is what true frugality and humility is like ah!” Jun Mo Xie exclaimed with wonder the instant he climbed to the top of Mount Heaven Saint. “F*ck, even this daddy would dream to live in this kind of frugality! Can you people not be so f*cking pretentious! My goodness, even this can be called frugal and humble? Frugal your mom! I wish for your entire family riches!”

Now that Young Master Jun had finally seen these ‘thatched cottages’ up close, he could not help but to feel a ball of anger rise in his chest in an instant. F*ck, to think that this daddy was tricked into being so impressed with them; so this is what’s going on.

The top of the mountain was completely flat, and the Spiritual Qi there was so dense that it’d almost turned material. Although it was still not as dense or pure as the Spiritual Qi in the Hongjun Pagoda, there was actually a vigorous essence Qi of plants intermixed in the air!

There were roughly over a hundred of these thatched cottages here, and each of them were actually living trees! Jun Mo Xie could recognize these trees: Xuan Spiritual Trees!

Xuan Spiritual Trees could grow to ages of over ten thousand years. By cutting these trees into pieces of wood and carrying it on the body, it would have an effect of calming the mind and concentrating one’s spirit, not rotting even after a hundred years. Living Xuan Spiritual Trees were also equivalent to small Spiritual Qi gathering formations, able to continuously draw and retain Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi!

And each of these ‘thatched cottages’ were made up of at least six Xuan Spiritual Trees... If one cultivated in such an environment, they would never have to worry about heart demons and cultivation deviation!
