Long Zhuoyan's methods were formidable, and her considerations were thorough.
The moment Chu Feng stepped out of the teleportation tunnel, he found himself within an entirely different world.
But almost no one noticed his arrival, for the instant he emerged from the tunnel, a layer of concealing power shrouded both him and the tunnel's exit — a precaution courtesy of Long Zhuoyan.
Before his eyes, figures filled the sky and the ground alike. Both the Demon race and the Human race had gathered in force.
Yet even the towering Demon race giants, standing tens of thousands of meters tall, were not the most eye-catching presence in this realm.
What truly drew all attention was a massive barrier gate not far away — so enormous that normal units of measurement were utterly inadequate to describe it.
It had transcended the boundaries of the world itself, reaching deep into the stars.
Without question, this was the entrance to the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain — and the reason so many powerhouses had come to this world.
"Chu Feng, is there any reaction from Little Fish's tracking talisman?" Eggy asked.
When Little Fish had sent Chu Feng his message, he had also sent back tracking talismans — not just his own, but also ones belonging to Xianhai Shaoyu and Wang Qiang.
As long as they were within a certain range, Chu Feng could lock onto their positions.
"No reaction yet. I'll probably need to go inside first."
As he spoke, Chu Feng soared toward the towering barrier gate, maintaining his concealment the entire time.
After all, he still couldn't be certain that the Seven Realms Sacred Palace had no involvement in this matter — he had to remain on guard. And it wasn't just the Seven Realms Sacred Palace. The Origin of Veins within Chu Feng's body, though it had yet to reveal its power, was being coveted by nearly every formidable figure present.
He was essentially a walking treasure vault. Anyone with sufficient strength and ambition would covet the valuables he carried.
That was precisely why Chu Feng had said Long Zhuoyan was dependable — she absolutely had the strength to seize what he possessed, yet she had chosen not to do so.
The moment Chu Feng passed through the barrier gate, he transitioned from the true world into a spatial realm.
For all the breathtaking spectacle of the barrier gate he had just witnessed, the landscape that now appeared before him looked no different from any other spatial world.
If one were to nitpick a difference, it would be that other worlds typically featured mountains, waters, and deserts — a more balanced spread of scenery.
But this world, as far as the eye could see, was nothing but an endless chain of mountain ranges.
Every range was blanketed in green.
And so, a particular mountain range in the far distance stood out in striking contrast.
That range was extraordinarily majestic and grand, with the central peak in particular resembling a great sword thrusting into the clear blue sky above.
Beyond that, the mountain range flickered in and out of view — not merely because of the distance, but because it carried a sense of separation, as though it did not truly belong to this world.
And judging by its appearance, that was none other than the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain.
Of course, compared to the colossal phantom visible in the starry sky, this was the real thing.
Being a physical entity, it was naturally far smaller than the illusory projection one could see from the heavens.
"There's a reaction."
Chu Feng produced the tracking talisman, and the direction it pointed was none other than toward the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain.
He immediately set off.
At the same time, he took out the stone that Long Zhuoyan had gifted him when they parted ways.
The stone had originally been transparent, but it had now turned gold and radiated a brilliant glow.
"Huh, this stone has changed! What exactly does it do? Can you feel anything, Chu Feng?" Eggy asked.
"This stone is connected to that mountain."
At first, Chu Feng had sensed very little from it. But the closer he drew to the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain, the more he could feel emanating from the stone.
"This stone contains considerable power. In my estimation, it's closely linked to the benefits one can obtain inside the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain."
"No wonder my sister said that the Bloodline Opportunity Mountain relies on resources."
"So this stone — it IS the resource." Chu Feng said.
