History’s Number 1 Founder

Next to the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage, another giant ape, who was slightly smaller than him but still humongous like a small mountain, appeared.

That ape had a white head and red feet. Its entire body was white, and its limbs appeared to be ablaze with fire. It had a pair of crimson red eyes which flashed with green light. It was the leader of the Crimson Gorilla Tribe, the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage.

Together with the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage, the Crimson Gorilla stared at the endless sea of purple clouds above their heads.

The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage said quietly, “You probably don’t need to go Mount Shu anymore. This time, Lin Feng is not after Heavenly Charms or Golden Roc. Instead, he is coming after us.”

The Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage’s mouth twitched as he said, “My tribe was slow. If not, we would have left already.”

“Eh?” The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage turned his head to look at him. The Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage chuckled, “As long as one of us is here, it will be very difficult for the Lin Feng to intrude into the Lingyuan Mountains. If he releases the seal of his sword, then there’s still a chance. However, it will take some time before the victor is determined.”

“The final result will be similar to the battle between the Great Void Sect and the dragons. With his pride, Lin Feng may not be able to deal with this result. Furthermore, he is probably after the gate to the Starry Sea in Heavenly Charm’s hands. We don’t have that in the Lingyuan Mountains.”

Hearing that, the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage snorted coldly, and the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage laughed, “Coming here, he is probably trying to trick Golden Roc or Heavenly Charms into doing something. Now, he is waiting for their counter-move.”

“For us, all we have to do is to observe the situation quietly. As for Mount Shu, it doesn’t matter if we go now and go later. I am patient enough to wait it out.”

The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage said coldly, “Do you think that Lin Feng doesn’t want the Lingyuan Mountains? We can wait, but we must resist his attack first.”

The Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage looked at him and said, “Xuangang, are you scared of fighting after the battle in the Starry Sea?”

“No, in fact, it’s the exact opposite. I want more than anything else to kill the leader of the Celestial Sect and retrieve our gate to the Starry Sea. I even want his gate to the Starry Sea and his many treasures,” said the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage emotionlessly. He stared coldly at the skies above his head. “This is why we must treat the issue seriously. I will not make another mistake like that in the Starry Sea.”

“Just now, I have already contacted Heavenly Charms and Golden Roc and invited them to come and kill Lin Feng together. If we do not do anything about him, he will come a big threat to us demons. If the two of them are smart, they will know what to do.”

“The more we delay, the powerful he will become.”

As he said that, black fog covered his lower body. Starlight glittered in the black fog and merged with it. Then, it turned into rays of black light.

The ray of black light sank downward and merged with Lingyuan Mountains, which was underneath the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage’s feet.

The giant mountain turned completely black in the blink of an eye. Then, with the black peak as its center, rays of black light shot in all directions and soon, the entire Lingyuan Mountains were enveloped.

As the black light flashed, the Lingyuan Mountains, which formerly appeared to be sleeping, appeared to have been jolted awake.

An infinite amount of demonic Qi rose into the sky and covered the entire surroundings. As the Qi headed upward, it caused the sea of purple clouds to churn non-stop as if it was going to be dissipated.

In the huge cloud of demonic Qi, one could see many apes roaring into the sky. Their voices were shrill and deafening.

As the demonic Qi spread even further, demons who were far away from the Lingyuan Mountains could hear the roars of the ape. They became increasingly agitated and seemed to have gone crazy.

The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage stared at Lin Feng. His already-huge frame continued to grow. Soon, his skull reached the higher levels of the sky itself. As the demonic powers of the Lingyuan Mountains were infused into him, he became even more ferocious.

A pair of giant, blood-red eyes stared through the void at Lin Feng as the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage said, “Lin Feng, how have you been?”

The Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage stood next to Lin Feng. His expression did not change as he looked at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng stood in the sky and took the change of the Lingyuan Mountains in with interest as he felt the change in its demonic aura.

He looked at the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage and smiled, “I’m fine, of course. I am happy to see that you are still the leader of the apes, Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage. Earlier, I was worried about you.”

As he said that, Lin Feng’s gaze turned to the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage and said, “After all, the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage has completed his Cardinal Tribulations Beginner Stage and ascended into the Vipralopa Stage.”

Hearing that, the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage was emotionless.

How could there be no repercussion from his defeat by Lin Feng and the subsequent loss of the gate to the Starry Sea?

After all, he led the apes for many years. With his firm foundations, he was able to stabilize the situation and prevent the apes from sinking into civil conflicts.

At the same time, while the situation of the apes appeared calm, it was actually very tense. The external situation was a big contributor to peace among the apes. Pressure from outside helped to resolve the internal tensions.

The Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage lifted his head to look at Lin Feng and his face cracked open into a smile, “You are too kind, Lin Feng. I must thank my leader for obtaining the blood and flesh of the Golden Cicada. Only with them was I able to complete my Cardinal Tribulations so quickly and recover swiftly afterward.”

“Speaking about it, I have to thank you, leader of the Celestial Sect. Thank you for discovering the location of that b*stard, the Golden Cicada.”

Lin Feng smiled and said, “There’s no need to thank me, Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage. If you feel that you owe me anything, you will be paying it all back to me in due time.”

Hearing that, the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage fell silent.

The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage then said quietly, “Return me my gate to the Starry Sea, Lin Feng!”

As he said that, he reached out his gigantic hand and took a step forward to grab Lin Feng!

Lin Feng’s expression did not change. With his right hand, he performed a spell gesture and the sea of purple clouds split open. The majestic white Mount Yujing appeared. On top of the holy mountain, the leaves and branches of the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree shook as the entire mountain came crashing down!

Around the holy mountain, light swirled and a giant halo centered around Mount Yujing started to spread outward.

Countless rays of light crisscrossed in an orderly fashion to form odd images in the sky. The images congregated together and turned into a giant pattern where black and white were clearly demarcated. Then, it enveloped the entire Lingyuan Mountains.

With Mount Yujing as its center, the black-and-white pattern started to spin non-stop. On top of Mount Yujing, in the center of the spell formation, a giant crucible stood quietly.

The crucible was green and black and there were many intricate patterns carved on it. The patterns represented the many geographical features, such as mountains, valleys, lakes, seas, and ravines, of the Divine Lands.

These complicated patterns grew and shrunk. Some of its more minute changes could not be detected by weaker cultivators. Even Immortal Soul Stage cultivators had to devote all their attention to observing them.

These patterns reflected all the geographical changes in the Divine Lands of the Greater World, both gargantuan and minute.

This crucible seemed to carry the entire Divine Lands with it. It was vast, enormous, majestic and heavy.

With the Crucible of the Divine Lands as its center, the Two Elements of Creation Formation started to change too. It added its own boundless power on top of Mount Yujing from top to bottom. Then, Mount Yujing came squashing down on the palm of the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage.

Even though the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage was powerful enough to tear the heavens apart with his hand, he could feel Mount Yujing weighing down on his hand.

As a Heavenly Demon Ape, the Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage had not had this feeling for a very long time. Right now, he could acutely sense the weakness in his body.

It was if an entire Greater World had come crashing down on him. He found this weight hard to deal with.

He bared his teeth and the red light in his eyes became even brighter. The Lingyuan Mountains underneath his feet trembled more and more as more demonic Qi entered his body. His strength increased even further.

Around the Lingyuan Mountains, from the skies above it to the ground below it, demonic Qi began to spread. Humongous demonic apes started to appear as they clawed at Mount Yujing, which was covered by the Two Elements of Creation Formation.

Grabbed by these apes formed from demonic Qi, a huge energy manifested and it appeared to be dragging Mount Yujing down from the heavens.

As countless monkey claws exerted their strength, the Two Elements of Creation Formation trembled non-stop. Light from the formation patterns around it started to disintegrate.

Around Mount Yujing, with the Two Elements of Creation as its axis, a shapeless ball of light appeared and started to crush down on the Lingyuan Mountains. However, as the power of the Lingyuan Mountains grew, the shapeless ball of light started to twist about and appeared to be breaking.

Looking at the situation, Lin Feng’s expression did not change. He was still quiet and calm. He descended from Mount Yujing’s peak and sat cross-legged. With his two hands, he rapidly performed spell gestures and soon, purple clouds spread forth and combined together with Mount Yujing, the Two Elements of Creation Formation and the Crucible of the Divine Lands.

At the same time, black-and-white Holy Light started to shine brightly from his body and a divine singing could be heard.

Dots of light started to appear on Lin Feng’s body. Every single dot of light seemed to reflect a particular god.

Like the clouds around a rising sun, the black-and-white Holy Light, along with Lin Feng’s own mana, fused with Mount Yujing. The shapeless ball of light, which appeared to be on the verge of destruction, stabilized and then, disappeared. The power of the holy mountain and the spell formation continued to expand, and they continued crushing down on the Lingyuan Mountains from above.

The Heavenly Grandmaster Grand Sage’s face was expressionless. The powerful the Lingyuan Mountains expanded rapidly too. It sought to seize Mount Yujing and destroy it.

Demonic Qi coursed through the heaven and earth, messing up void space. Where the two mountains touched, space had already been destroyed. Then, it was reformed and then destroyed again. It was an endless cycle.

Bigger tears appeared in the void space around it. White light flashed and the power from the dimensions surged. As the two sides continued battling, it appeared as if the Lingyuan Mountains were going to be forcibly separated from the Barren Expanses.
