Chapter 1103 - Mysterious Imprint Reappears
Liu Wuxie had already gathered a huge chunk of information about the Eternal Spirit Mountain.
Ruan Ying hesitantly asked, "Master, should we head in? The heavenly coffin has been acting strangely over the past few days. There's even a mysterious voice coming from within."
If the rumors were true and a deity truly lay sealed within the coffin, then those who managed to enter it could seize the chance to inherit divine powers. Beyond that, such an ancient existence would have left behind priceless treasures.
"There's no rush," Liu Wuxie replied calmly. "Who else has arrived?"
They still needed half a day's journey to reach the mountain's inner region.
Lu Liang stepped forward and handed over the intelligence he had gathered. "Quite a few experts have shown up, especially from the two great academies. The Dragon Emperor Academy, in particular, has dispatched a strong contingent."
"Besides the academies, major sects from across the Central Plains have also arrived," Ruan Ying added. "The Four Great Clans are here, and there are rumors that even Heaven Profound Realm experts are on their way."
Liu Wuxie narrowed his eyes. He hadn't expected the emergence of the heavenly coffin to draw out cultivators of the Heaven Profound Realm.
On second thought, however, it made sense. After the events in Astral Glory City, many Heaven Profound experts had broken their long seclusion.
Once those experts stepped into the world again, they wouldn't return to isolation so soon. They would need time to comprehend and integrate the laws they cultivated.
The rumors of a deity's corpse sealed inside the mystical coffin were enough to tempt even those at the peak of cultivation. For Heaven Profound experts, a deity was an existence beyond reach, divine and unattainable.
However, if they could absorb even a sliver of the divine essence lingering on the corpse, they could shatter the limitations of the True Martial Continent and ascend to a higher plane.
