Ch. 43 - Adding Incense

After pondering about it for a while, Ji Yuenian changed into the sky-blue talisman robe, which he had received from Lingcai (Spiritual Materials) Hall, and once again stepped out of the attic courtyard, discerned the direction, and headed along the steep mountain path towards the upper court of the Eclipsed Moon Peak.

According to the Eclipsed Moon Peak’s rule, after selecting a courtyard, the new disciples must have to go to the main mountain hall within a day to receive the necessary items.

On both sides of the mountain path were dense plantings of Clear Blue Flower and Spiritual Grass, which gathered extremely rich heaven and earth energy on the mountain path, which had a calming effect on the people’s mind and spirit.

The Eclipsed Moon Peak was over 1,000 feet (ca. 305 meters) high, and the place where the upper court was located was 400 feet (ca. 122 meters) higher than the atrium. Although this mountain path was called a road, in reality, it was a simple path paved with large rocks. In case the mortal disciple who had not ignited his Heart Fire who walked this mountain road, he would be in danger of falling down the mountain and breaking his bones every moment.

The Profound Sea in Ji Yuenian trembled slightly, and Zhan Qing's(deep blue) mysterious air flowed out, and each of which could travel several meters away.

After walking for a while, several gorgeous courtyards with carved beams and painted buildings appeared before him. Under the cover of clouds and mist, with a strange fragrance, which was quite mysterious.

On the sideways of the mountain path, countless huge peaks stood amidst a sea of tumbling snow-white clouds, as if in a fairyland. Although it was already at the highest point, it was still not the upper court of Eclipsed Moon Peak.

Ji Yuenian continued to climb the stone path after walking through the courtyards along the edge of the mountain road.

Just as he passed a few steps, a soft voice came to his ears from behind: "Junior Brother, come and rest for a while."

His gaze moved slightly, halting on the track, he turned his head to the source of the voice.

Outside one of the exquisite courtyards stood a pretty girl in a pink gauze dress, looking at him with a smile.

Recalling the information contained in the brief transcript of Eclipsed Moon Peak, Ji Yuenian already knew in his heart who this woman was.

The Tianxiang Pavilion on Eclipse Moon Peak was located ‌in between the atrium and the upper court. There were seven female disciples living here for a long time, and they offered people to play with in exchange for spirit stones.

Of course, these "senior sisters" were extremely beautiful in the form of young girls, and had a certain charm. Even the disciples from other mountain peaks often came to visit them.

Ji Yuanian shook his head, and without saying a word, turned his head toward the mountain road.

"Junior Brother, stop!"

Seeing that Ji Yuenian was about to leave, the beautiful girl in the pink gauze skirt said in a hurry, "I think you seem to be a new disciple of Eclipse Moon Peak. Senior Sister will not ask your spirit stone this time, how about it?"

As if Ji Yuenian didn't hear it, Zhan Qing's mysterious energy surrounded his body, and within a minute, he disappeared on the misty mountain road.

The girl stomped her feet fiercely, and said bitterly, "What a pity!"

"It is indeed a pity," another nonchalant girl in black came out behind her, looking at the direction where Ji Yuenian disappeared, "This junior brother was born so handsome, if he lets me take him to paradise on the couch, I am willing to subsidize the spirit stone."

Boom!

A dazzling light shone through the clouds and mist outside the mountain, and landed in front of the attic of Tianxiang Pavilion.

After the light disappeared, a man in black robe without a word of nonsense threw two spirit stones at the cold-looking girl in black and directly hugged her waist and walked towards the edge of the building.

Eclipsed Moon Peak, Upper Court.

Nearly a hundred courtyard attics were lined up, forming a mysterious and unparalleled array on top of the peak. At its center were three magnificent halls, located at the very top of the Eclipsed Moon Peak, without anything present to support.

Ji Yuenian walked along the mountain path to the upper court, slowly walking through these distinctive courtyards, which were very far from the atrium's courtyard, attracting a lot of inquisitive eyes along the way.

There were few new disciples on the Eclipsed Moon Peak, except for those who were forcibly assigned by Hall of Records, almost no one would choose a mountain peak that requires a monthly subsidy of spirit stones, so Ji Yuenian's arrival attracted the attention of some disciples in the peak.

A disciple of the upper Xuan [Profound] realm came out of the courtyard and stopped Ji Yuenian, his gaze was somewhat playful: "Is junior brother going to the main hall of the peak?"

Ji Yuenian looked around, and many disciples in the surrounding courtyard were all looking at his side.

"Yes, I am new to the atrium of Eclipse Moon Peak, and I'm going to the main hall of the peak to collect the necessary materials."

The upper Xuan realm disciple shook his head and said, "Junior Brother, I advise you not to go, apart from when you have to go to the peak master’s hall to pay a spirit stone every month, don’t go for the rest of the time."

Ji Yuenian thought for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by that, senior brother?"

"Nothing, I've already said what I should say, that's all." That disciple smiled, then directly returned to his courtyard, after opening a protective light shield.
