Chapter 3319: Resplendent Beauty
Paramount Supremacy Chang Qing and the other two could not help but sigh deeply when they saw that.
Although they had lived for billions of years and were used to seeing life and death, they still felt a sense of sadness and could not help but sigh when they saw the outcome of Paramount Supremacy Lin Meng.
Paramount Supremacy Chang Qing and the other two turned to look at Su Zimo.
At that moment, the purple flames in Su Zimo’s eyes had gradually faded and returned to normal. The sense of pressure the three Paramount Supremacies felt from him seem to have disappeared as well.
The three Paramount Supremacies exchanged glances and went forward one after another. They knelt down and said in a deep voice, “Master, sorry, we deserve t—”
“Get up.”
Before the three Paramount Supremacies could finish, Su Zimo waved his robe and gestured for them to stand up.
Although the three Paramount Supremacies earlier on chose not to help either side, in reality, they were on Paramount Supremacy Lin Meng’s side. It was equivalent to them having a tacit agreement that Paramount Supremacy Lin Meng would kill Su Zimo and replace him.
However, he did not succeed in the end.
Su Zimo said, “It’s difficult to be loyal to two parties. This was a difficult choice to make to begin with. You’re all people who value relationships and righteousness, what’s wrong with that?”
Paramount Supremacy Chang Qing and the other two stood up to thank him.
Su Zimo gave the three of them a few more instructions before leaving. He sped southwest and rode like the wind.
He countered some setbacks along the way as well, but there were no actual threats.
Crossing the South Region, Su Zimo finally set foot in the Southwest Region.
There was an extremely obvious border between the two regions.
The South Region was blazing hot and the ground was scorched. There was hardly even any vegetation.
However, in the Southwest Region, it was green and filled with vitality. Rainbows shone through the immortal fog like a paradise.
Su Zimo arrived at a small town and bought a map of the Southwest Region from a cultivator. He found the direction of Mount Xuan Pin and set off once more.
About half a month later.
Su Zimo finally arrived at his destination.
The moment he arrived near Mount Xuan Pin, Su Zimo could sense that this place was different.
Along the way, he passed by a few of the 36 Grotto-heavens and 72 Blessed Grounds. The Grotto-heavens and Blessed Grounds here were similar to the 108 states in the southeastern region and the 49 Spirit Grounds in the South Region. They were all factions occupied by cultivation experts.
These experts were all high and mighty and resided at the peaks of immortal mountains, far away from the secular world.
However, near Mount Xuan Pin, Su Zimo saw villages and houses. Traffic was everywhere and the chickens and dogs could be heard clearly. Men plowed and women weaved in a carefree manner.
Su Zimo stood there quietly for a long time. In a flash, it was as though he had returned to the mortal world and saw a long-lost scene.
Among them, the cultivation realms of the men and women were different. Some of them did not even cultivate and looked like mortals.
However, even for cultivators with strong cultivation, they did not have the arrogance of looking down on cultivators with low cultivation realms. There were no such things as bullying the weak here.
There was no bloodshed in the village. Instead, it was peaceful.
Surrounded by the immortal mountains and cave abodes of the 36 Grotto-heavens and 72 Blessed Grounds, this village was like an isolated paradise in the major chiliocosm.
This was Mount Xuan Pin?
If not for the fact that he knew that he was in the major chiliocosm, Su Zimo would have thought that he had returned to a village beneath Ping Yang Town.
Su Zimo took a deep breath of air and walked towards the village ahead.
In the distance, someone in a straw cape sat quietly like a stone and fished by the stream motionlessly.
In the forest, a woodcutter waved his axe and slashed at the trees one after another. He was sweating profusely and there were already many branches piled under his feet.
In fact, Su Zimo was unwilling to break the tranquility. He merely walked along a small path in the field with much lighter footsteps.
A few children played and chased each other.
A child did not look where he was going and ran to Su Zimo. He bumped into Su Zimo and was a little dizzy.
“Are you alright?”
Su Zimo asked.
“I-I’m fine.”
The child bowed hurriedly. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Su Zimo smiled.
When the child saw Su Zimo’s smile, he turned around and played with the other children.
In the field beside the path, a middle-aged farmer who was plowing nodded at Su Zimo and smiled apologetically when he saw that.
The child who bumped into Su Zimo earlier on looked similar to the middle-aged farmer.
Su Zimo nodded in acknowledgment as well.
Along the way, the people in the village did not have any hostility or vigilance when they saw an outsider like him and smiled kindly.
Above a house, smoke coiled up and the door was open. Through the window, smoke could be seen lingering inside and a burly man’s bare arm was faintly visible.
Su Zimo smelled a fragrance.
It was not the fragrance of immortal pills or spirit medicines, but a delicacy cooked from the simplest ingredients in the world.
This ordinary smoke and fire somehow made him inexplicably touched.
“It’s time to eat!”
“Brat, come back for dinner!”
The burly man’s rough voice sounded from the house.
Su Zimo snapped out of his stupor as well.
A child who was playing not far away abandoned his companions and skipped over, his stomach rumbling but his face filled with joy.
“May I ask if this is Mount Xuan Pin?”
When the child ran past Su Zimo, he asked the child instinctively.
The child turned around and asked, “Are you here to seek knowledge from the Mountain Chief as well?”
“Mountain Chief?”
Su Zimo was stunned.
The child extended two fingers and pulled down the corners of his eyes. He made a silly face and smiled. “The Mountain Chief lives at the foot of the mountain over there. He’s an old grandpa with a long face. You can recognize him at a glance.”
“Hey!”
The burly man in the house had just finished cooking. When he heard the sound outside, he carried a rag in his hands and shouted as he wiped the oil on his hands, “Brother, do you want to come in and eat together?”
Su Zimo was stunned for a moment before smiling. “Thank you for your kind intentions, Brother. I’m Su Zimo and I have something on. I won’t disturb you.”
“You’re here to look for someone, right?”
The burly man asked.
Before Su Zimo could reply, the burly man pointed into the distance. “Go look over there.”
Su Zimo was surprised and delighted.
To think that the burly man knew his intentions.
However, he did not know if the direction the burly man was referring to was the Mountain Chief or Die Yue.
Before Su Zimo could continue asking, the burly man had already brought the child into the house and sat at the table, eating heartily.
Su Zimo was a little uneasy but still walked in that direction.
After taking a few steps, he was shocked and suddenly snapped out of his stupor!
The few people he met along the way, their cultivation realms should have already reached the perfected Dao Hegemony realm. They were Paramount Supremacy experts!
The fisherman by the stream, the woodcutter logging in the forest, the farmer plowing in the field and even that burly man earlier on…
However, these people had long fused into their surroundings.
At first glance, one would only take them as ordinary fishermen or woodcutters.
While deep in thought, Su Zimo did not stop in his tracks. Before long, a faint fragrance came from ahead that seemed familiar.
This was the fragrance of peach blossoms.
Su Zimo looked up.
At the foot of the mountain not far away, peach blossom trees grew one after another. At that moment, the peach blossoms were in full bloom and countless butterflies were fluttering between the flowers.
A blood-robed woman leaned against a peach blossom tree. Her body was half-suspended and her slender legs were casually placed on a branch. She was resting with her eyes closed and her black hair cascaded down her shoulders. She had a lazy expression and was extraordinarily charming.
This was a resplendent beauty that was surrounded by butterflies.
