Chapter 2194: Blue Sky Mountain

Zhao Hai calmly marched along the road. Now that he’s a Battle Corpse Sect member, he’s required to do missions. The first mission he took wasn’t very difficult. The mission was to find an ore on a mountain not far from the sect’s location. 

Before this, Zhao Hai had never heard of the ore’s name. The ore was called green gold ore. Zhao Hai heard of black gold and white gold, but he has never heard of green gold. The ore’s unique name piqued Zhao Hai’s interest, so he took the mission.

The mountain where green gold ore could be found was called Blue Sky Mountain. The mountain was known for its rich amount of Blue Sky Trees. Blue Sky Trees couldn’t be used for cultivation. However, it was useful in making high-grade coffins. In the underground world, besides the Battle Corpse Sect, very few people would go to Blue Sky Mountain to cut down Blue Sky Trees. Because of this, the mountain preserved its lush forest. The Blue Sky Tree wasn’t entirely blue, only the nodes where its branches sprout out were blue.

Very few people know that there is another resource in Blue Sky Mountain, and that is green gold ore. Green gold ore was a green ore with the same properties as gold. But unlike gold, green gold had another attribute, which was wood.

Metals would innately have the metal attribute. However, some metals would have two attributes. Green gold was one of these metals. Green gold was a metal with a metal and gold attribute.

Metals with double attributes were rare. When green gold ore was first found in Blue Sky Mountain, it attracted a lot of cultivators in the underground world. But in the end, they were all disappointed. They found nothing in Blue Sky Mountain.

But strangely, although there was no green gold ore in Blue Sky Mountain, people could still find green gold ore from time to time. This was one of the mysteries of Blue Sky Mountain.

Although cultivators couldn’t understand why this was the case, they still went to Blue Sky Mountain every year in hopes of striking it rich.

Because Blue Sky Mountain was close to the Battle Corpse Sect, the cultivators who went to the mountain were mostly from the sect. Some of them went because they needed green gold ore, but were also trying their luck. After all, looking for green gold ore didn’t depend on one’s strength.

Ads by PubFuture It was also because of this that other cultivators looked at the green gold ore collection mission as chicken feed. n.o.body can confirm how long the mission would take, and a cultivator would need to sc.r.a.pe up all their luck to find an ore. There were plenty of missions that took less time and had more rewards.

Zhao Hai took the collection mission because he wanted to research green gold ore. He wanted to know why it had two attributes.

The distance between the Battle Corpse Sect’s Mountain and Blue Sky Mountain was less than a thousand kilometers. For a cultivator in the Teleportation Stage, it would take them one jump. Even Soul Fusion cultivators like Zhao Hai wouldn’t take long to reach the mountain.

Zhao Hai traveled for around two hours before he could see Blue Sky Mountain in the distance.

The Earthfire Pillars were burning brightly, providing light and warmth to the underground world. After half an hour, Zhao Hai finally entered Blue Sky Mountain. Zhao Hai was also careful. This was because there were demon beasts in Blue Sky Mountain. The mountain specifically has a special demon beast called the Bluefire Monkey.

Bluefire Monkeys are the most famous demon beasts in Blue Sky Mountain. They weren’t strong. The strongest Bluefire Monkey only has the strength equivalent to an Earth Monarch. However, their lack of strength was supplemented by their numbers. In the entire Blue Sky Mountain, there were no less than 100 thousand Bluefire Monkeys. Although they couldn’t fly, they were skilled in fire-based spells. They could send a fireball or a fire snake to their enemy. The fire they produced was very strong. If their fire touches your hand, the best course of action is to cut it off. Otherwise, the fire would eventually consume your entire body.

Bluefire Monkeys were famous for being difficult to deal with, which Zhao Hai knew very well. It was because of this that he was being very careful. To be honest, he wanted to catch bluefire monkeys for the s.p.a.ce. But he also knew that they were dangerous targets.

Bluefire monkeys were relatively gentle monkeys. They weren’t large. They have blue fur and big eyes. Their temperaments were also good. Although they regarded the entire Blue Sky Mountain as their territory, they wouldn’t attack people who enter it. 

However, bluefire monkeys have one reverse scale. Anyone who touches this reverse scale would be subjected to an endless chase by the monkeys. This reverse scale was their companions. Bluefire monkeys attach great importance to their fellow bluefire monkeys. Because of this, bluefire monkeys were ma.s.sive headaches in Blue Sky Mountain.

Zhao Hai carefully walked up the mountain. He didn’t stop taking trees and plants for the s.p.a.ce. As long as it’s not in s.p.a.ce, he would send them to the s.p.a.ce.

By this point, every new thing introduced to the s.p.a.ce only provided very little experience. However, collecting has become Zhao Hai’s habit. He just wants to see what the s.p.a.ce could turn into.

Zhao Hai also saw a few bluefire monkeys along the way. Bluefire monkeys weren’t afraid of people. When they saw Zhao Hai, they just sat on the branches of the tree and ate leaves. They had no intention of hiding at all.

One couldn’t deny that bluefire monkeys are very cute. Seeing its usual state, one couldn’t help but have the urge to hug them. This was especially true towards women.

Seeing the bluefire monkeys, Zhao Hai’s decision to send them to the s.p.a.ce was reinforced. This was because he wanted Laura and the others to have more cute pets.

But Zhao Hai didn’t act on this goal yet. He was planning to complete his mission first. Zhao Hai wasn’t hoping to find green gold ore immediately after arriving. However, it wouldn’t be hard for him to search for them. When he arrived at the mountain, he immediately released liquid silver dust to search for the ore.

Although Bluefire Monkeys have the strength of Earth Monarchs, their temperament was quite moderate. They would just stare at you all the time.

After Zhao Hai released liquid silver, he continued to stroll around Blue Sky Mountain. He was quite interested in the mountain’s ecosystem. It had a lot of things that the s.p.a.ce didn’t have.

Besides bluefire monkeys, there weren’t a lot of other beasts in Blue Sky Mountain. There were also few incidents of cultivators killing each other. Even if cultivators attack another, they would do it outside the mountain. The reason for this wasn’t because they were afraid of ruining the trees on the mountain. Instead, they didn’t want to accidentally injure a bluefire monkey.

It might be ridiculous to think that ghost cultivators would be afraid of injuring a demon beast. However, every ghost cultivator who goes to Blue Sky Mountain knew that bluefire monkeys liked to watch exciting things. If two cultivators fought, bluefire monkeys would definitely come over to watch. Moreover, bluefire monkeys tend to get very close to the action. But as soon as they get close, the monkeys would be susceptible to getting hit by attacks. Ghost cultivators might not hold back and hit a bluefire monkey by mistake. Once this happens, the cultivator would be subjected to vicious attacks by the entire group of bluefire monkeys. 

Because of this, Blue Sky Mountain was mostly safe. As long as the bluefire monkeys weren’t hurt, then everything would be fine. Therefore, Zhao Hai was very relaxed while strolling around the mountain.

However, the more he walked around the mountain, the more Zhao Hai felt that it wasn’t simple. Or rather, the Blue Sky Trees on the mountain weren’t simple.

Zhao Hai already sent a Blue Sky Tree to the s.p.a.ce. The prompt sent by the s.p.a.ce was that it was a mutated tree. Then there was no other information because of the lack of levels.

This prompt surprised Zhao Hai. Although the True Spirit Realm had many things that couldn’t be a.n.a.lyzed by the s.p.a.ce due to the lack of levels, ordinary trees weren’t a problem for the s.p.a.ce. But now, the s.p.a.ce couldn’t a.n.a.lyze the Blue Sky Trees. This meant that the tree was at a much higher level compared to other trees. If this was the case, then the tree was indeed not simple.

In addition to Blue Sky Trees, there were also other shrubs and trees in the mountain. And the deeper Zhao Hai went into the mountain, the shrubs and trees became more lush and higher level. Most of the shrubs and trees were also mutated. They might not look different from the outside, but their insides were dramatically different.

This discovery surprised Zhao Hai. He wondered what was going on. He wanted to find out why Dark Sky Mountain has such a phenomenon.

Zhao Hai absent-mindedly walked forward as he thought about the changes brought by the mountain. At this moment, he heard a squeak. Zhao Hai turned his head and saw a bluefire monkey sitting on the tree, squeaking at him.

Zhao Hai glanced at the bluefire monkey in confusion. When the bluefire monkey saw that Zhao Hai noticed it, it became excited. It squeaked more and jumped on the tree, which confused Zhao Hai even more.

After standing for half an hour, Zhao Hai finally understood what the monkey was doing. It was actually singing, and it called Zhao Hai to become its audience!
