Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 975 - 517 Exploring Five Poison Mountain

Chapter 975: Chapter 517: Exploring Five Poison Mountain Chapter 975: Chapter 517: Exploring Five Poison Mountain Half a month later.

In the central-southern region of the Huangyang Kingdom, a clear figure of Lin Tianming appeared atop a barren mountain.

At that time, Lin Tianming was standing on the mountaintop, his sharp gaze cutting through the thick clouds and mist, overlooking the vast mountains and rivers that were faintly visible in the distance.

Following his line of sight, there was an endless range of mountains crisscrossed with many peaks and valleys, rivers cutting through the mountains, and marshlands scattered at the foothills.

In such a rarely trodden place, there were also many gloomy and dark valleys whose depths couldn’t be discerned at a glance.

Turning his gaze back, Lin Tianming once again took out the map given to him by Zhou Yunxiao and began to compare it with the scene before his eyes.

Soon enough, he made a judgment. The boundless forest-covered mountains in front of him were precisely his destination—the Five Poison Mountain.

...

At this time, a light smile overshadowed the fatigue of traveling non-stop for the past half-month, reflecting Lin Tianming’s delight.

During this half-month journey, he had been on the move incessantly and had finally arrived here smoothly.

Along the way, he had indeed encountered quite a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators who, like him, were also heading in this direction, presumably also aiming to train at Five Poison Mountain.

However, with Lin Tianming’s powerful Divine Sense, if he didn’t wish to reveal his whereabouts, even an Early Stage Golden Core Cultivator would likely find it difficult to detect him.

At this point, instead of continuing towards Five Poison Mountain, Lin Tianming gazed at the scenery before him without making a move.

He planned to find a place to rest and recuperate for a couple of days, adjusting his state before venturing into Wudu Mountain.

Having made up his mind, Lin Tianming’s figure turned and vanished on the spot.

In a short while, he appeared in a small valley.

After spending just under half an hour, he had dug out a simple cave abode and quickly went inside.

Two days later, a revitalized Lin Tianming emerged from the valley and concealed the entrance to the Temporary Cave Abode.

After erasing his own traces, Lin Tianming set off towards Five Poison Mountain.

Traveling westward for over two hundred li, he arrived at a range of mountains.

According to the records on the map, this place was already the outer region of Five Poison Mountain.

He stood still and looked inside to see the lush and verdant vegetation of the forest, while the terrain was also rugged and uneven.

At first glance, such a scene seemed rather ordinary.

However, this particular scene was quite different from other places, especially in terms of the richness of Spiritual Energy, which was significantly denser than elsewhere.

Such characteristics were normal because, in the Cultivation World, the places where Demonic Beasts resided often had denser Spiritual Energy, which in turn could birth more treasures.

In fact, many of the territories and sects of various powers had once been the domains, even the main lairs, of Demonic Beasts a very long time ago.

After those Demonic Beasts were eradicated by Human Cultivators, they would utilize the power of Formations to gather the surrounding Spiritual Energy.

Through long-term gathering of Spiritual Energy, combined with some Spirit Stones or special treasures for improvement, these sect territories gradually became Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands.

However, this process was generally very lengthy and required no small amount of resources.

Especially those powers with millennia of heritage, their sect territories, after the efforts of dozens or even hundreds of generations, managed to form a substantial scale and a high-quality Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands.

Given the vast expanse of Five Poison Mountain and the number of Demonic Beasts that once dwelled here, the richness of the Spiritual Energy was unsurprisingly high.

It was even possible that tens of thousands of years ago, the Spiritual Energy density here was several times higher than it is now.

Nowadays, after wave after wave of cultivators came to explore, the number of Demonic Beasts in Five Poison Mountain continued to decrease, and many treasures were plundered by Human Cultivators.

Such sustained plundering led to the gradual shrinking of Five Poison Mountain’s size, and the density of its Spiritual Energy also substantially decreased.

Even so, the Spiritual Energy in this outer area was still not inferior, enough to match a small Foundation Establishment family’s sect.

Aside from the difference in Spiritual Energy density, the main feature of Five Poison Mountain was the perpetual layer of poisonous mist shrouding the entire vast area.

It wasn’t too severe in this outer region, to the point where ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators might not even notice the difference if they weren’t paying close attention.

But Lin Tianming, with his Golden Core Stage Cultivation and powerful Divine Sense, along with the aid of the Eye of Five Colors, perceived a faint green mist in the air as soon as he entered this region.

The basic characteristics of Five Poison Mountain were well-known throughout Huangyang Kingdom.

Before coming here, Lin Tianming specially gathered a lot of information and understood much more about Five Poison Mountain.

According to the collected information, there were numerous dangers deep within Five Poison Mountain; the threat of Demonic Beasts and poisonous insects was only one of them. The vast poisonous mists in the deeper regions were also a significant hazard.

This kind of toxic mist was very troublesome. If inhaled in small amounts, a cultivator could rely on their own resistance to fend it off or expel it by circulating their energy.

But once inhaled excessively, it was easy to lose one’s mind, becoming a mindless husk.

In such a scenario, wandering through the perilous Five Poison Mountain, death would just be a matter of time.

For the time being, the concentration of poison mist in the outer regions was too low, essentially negligible.

However, once one reached the deeper parts, the concentration of the poisonous mist would increase drastically, and it was said that there would even be massive clouds of roaming poison mist.

These roaming poison clouds were not small in size, and the toxic mist within them was extremely potent, moving unpredictably and leaving no trace.
