Alex and Fritz talked for a short while before saying goodbye to each other.

After separating from Fritz, Alex carefully thought about his next moves. He planned what he has to do before going into the Valley of Death to obtain the Mirror of Myriad Worlds.

On the other hand, Fritz looked at Alex's disappearing figure and a smile appeared on his face. He muttered: "I hope my hard work in creating the Mirror of Myriad Worlds will not go to waste. With its help, you could grow stronger more quickly."

"Grow... Grow stronger and stronger. We don't have much time left. In at most a thousand years, "that" period will come when you will be needed. You have promised me two things to do for me in your past life, and you have to fulfill your promises no matter what. I'll help you grow stronger as much as I could do, but I can't interfere with your fate. In the end, you have to rely on yourself!"

And with that, Fritz's figure became blurry before disappearing completely. It was as if he was never there at all.

╠ True Essence Sky World ╣

Far away in a place, a multicolored cloud was rushing in a certain direction. And very soon, an enormous mountain range appeared in front of them.

There were three people on the multicolored cloud.

Only when they got closer did they notice the endless mountain peaks that formed an endless mountain community.

If the people of Three Cultivation Lands were to see it, they would definitely be shocked by the scene before their eyes.

When had they ever seen such a vast and boundless mountain? When had they ever seen such a towering mountain that pierced through the clouds whose peak could not be seen? Where had they ever seen such a mountain filled with spirit energy?

The closer they flew, the clearer the scenery in front of them became. There were nine peaks that pierced through the clouds like seven sharp swords. They were very eye-catching.

In Nadya's eyes, this was simply a fairyland.

There were countless precious and rare flying-type demonic beasts flying around the mountain, and there were also beast trainers riding the flying-type demonic beasts and patrolling back and forth.

The mountain was filled with beasts that were jumping and running.

In front of the endless mountain range, there was a grand and imposing mountain gate. On the mountain gate, there were three eye-catching big words: Nine Star Mountain Sect.

These four words were carved on a huge rock with a sword. The characters were bold and powerful. The sword intent contained within them was about to fly out through the mountain.

The more Ian read, the more he felt that the cultivation of this person was incomparably deep.

In fact, Nadya was also dazzled just by the sight of it, as if these words could hurt her.

Yoren noticed her strangeness and whispered into her ear, "Nadya, close your eyes, and don't look at those three words."

Nadya finally snapped out of her daze and closed her eyes to avoid looking at the three words. Only then did the piercing pain disappear.

Ian said: "We're here, the gate to my Nine Star Mountain Sect is right in front. Follow me to the sect examination hall later to see the level of your Special Physique."

"Wow, such a grand Nine Star Mountain Sect. And that... The one flying in the sky is actually the legendary phoenix, right, Master?"

"Hehe, there is nothing to make such a fuss about. The Phoenix is one of the legendary Divine Beasts that only exists at the highest point of our Essence Sky World. We don't have a phoenix here, that's a vermillion bird."

Yoren swept a glance at the Nine Star Mountain Sect's gate and felt the incomparably surging spirit energy within the Sect.

Compared to Nadya, who had made a fuss over nothing and widened her horizons, Yoren appeared to be calm and collected.

After arriving at the Nine Star Mountain Sect's Gate, Ian paid special attention to Yoren's performance.

Usually, when outside people come here and feel the incomparably majestic and immortal aura shrouding the Nine Star Mountain Sect, they were usually just like Nadya, incomparably shocked.

This was the first time he saw someone act this calmly. Perhaps, it was due to his personality. Ian attributed all this to Yoren's personality.

A giant falcon with a powerful build and multicolored feathers flapped its wings and flew over. There were two disciples on the back of the giant falcon.

They were disciples that were on their way to the mountain through Nine Star Mountain Sect.

When they saw Ian's multicolored cloud from afar, one of them immediately said, "So it's Demon Peak Master, Ian. We'll let go of the protective magical formation and invite Peak Master in."

When the Mountain Patrol Disciple saw that it was Ian, he immediately bowed politely.

Nine Star Mountain Sect had a total of nine peaks, and each peak had a Peak Master. Their authority was extremely great, and every one of the several hundred thousand disciples of the Nine Star Mountain Sect was very courteous to them, not daring to defy the rules in the slightest.

One of them took out a command medallion and chanted an incantation as he waved it at the sect gate.

A blue light flashed and a door of light visible to the naked eye appeared, opening a path for them to enter.

Ian did not say anything, he only nodded slightly, urged his multicolored cloud, and flew through the door of light before entering the Nine Star Mountain Sect.

Passing through the large protective formation outside, they arrived at the true mountain gate caused by the Nine Star Mountain Sect.

The scenery in front of his eyes changed once again. There were layers upon layers of beautiful scenery everywhere. The scenery was ten miles one at a time, and it was extremely verdant and lush, like a paradise.

In the numerous mountain ranges, countless buildings could be seen. These buildings had a variety of shapes, decorations, and levels of age. It seemed like they weren't built in the same time period.

Within the entire mountain, there were countless disciples shuttling back and forth. All of them were in a hurry, and no one would laze around.

The disciples in this sect were divided into two main categories: disciples and servants.

There were still many demonic beasts and spirit birds in the mountains, and these were all the property of the Nine Star Mountain Sect. Disciples were not allowed to kill them as they pleased.

These demonic beasts and spirit birds relied on the Nine Star Mountain Sect's vast area of the mountain gate and the leisurely spirit mountain. Some of them coincidentally had opened their intelligence and took the initiative to enter the Nine Star Mountain Sect Elder's tutelage as a disciple.

historical

All living beings were spiritualists, so it was a thousand times more difficult for the beasts to cultivate than it was for humans. Therefore, any beast that had awakened its intelligence would wish to join the elder's tutelage and listen to his teachings.

In the end, he was able to take human form and achieve immortality.

The majority of the disciples running and moving within the Nine Star Mountain Sect were all Celestial Phenomenon Stage martial warriors. When they saw Ian's multicolored cloud fly past and recognized that it was one of the sect's elders, they all stopped to pay their respects.

Ian only nodded slightly as he swiftly controlled his treasured cloud and flew deeper into the sect.

He softly said, "Since you have already entered the Nine Star Mountain Sect's gate, let me explain to you the basic situation of the Nine Star Mountain Sect."

"Within the sect, there are nine peaks that pierced the clouds. Looking down from the sky, they looked like seven shining stars adorning the entire Nine Star Mountain Forest outside the Nine Star Mountain Sect."

"The nine peaks of the sect are respectively Earth Peak, Sky Peak, Thunder Peak, Sword Peak, Sage Peak, Cloud Peak, Dust Peak, Medicine Peak, Human Peak, and Demon Peak. Among them, the Human Peak is Sect Leader's residence."

"I am Demon Peak's Peak Master. From now on, Nadya, you will cultivate in Demon Peak with me. Today is the day that the Nine Star Mountain Sect will test the Special Physiques and Bloodline of the disciples of the sect. I will first take you two to test your Special Physique and Bloodline."

"As for Yoren, because of your special situation, I'll try to recommend you to Sect Leader and do my best to help you enter the Human Peak. As long as you could enter the Human Peak, you could solve your problem easily."

Ian paused for a moment before he stroked his hair with his hand and again spoke: "Oh right, let me briefly introduce you to other parts of our Nine Star Mountain Sect."

"Our Nine Star Mountain Sect is....."

"....."
