Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 619: Entering Mount Sumeru

Despite the division of Mount Sumeru into three major regions, there would still be many cultivators who found themselves at a disadvantage within.

But this was already the greatest concession Elder Fu Hu could negotiate.

"Mount Sumeru is a shared territory among our three major sects, on what grounds does your Spirit Dragon Holy Land suddenly change the rules?"

A cultivator at the early stage of the Great Saint Realm soared into the air, intending to question the Supreme Saint expert face to face.

Being in the early stage of the Great Saint Realm, he stood no chance against a Supreme Saint expert.

No sooner had his figure taken flight than an overwhelming pressure descended, pinning him to the ground.

"Humph, shared by all three? What do you think Heavenly Sword Gate and Xuanhuang Sect are worth to claim shared ownership of Mount Sumeru?"

The Supreme Saint expert showed no mercy as he suppressed the Great Saint expert, who lay prostrate on the ground, unable to get up.

He Qianshan looked around disdainfully and said coldly, "Spirit Dragon Holy Land contributed the most in suppressing Golden Buddha Mountain, and it was the Holy Master himself who seized Mount Sumeru. Out of compassion, the Holy Master graciously allowed your two sects to send disciples to participate when Mount Sumeru opens.

If you disdain it, you are very welcome not to enter, and we of Spirit Dragon Holy Land will certainly not force you."

"You..."

"You are bullying us too much!"

Who present was not a genius from each of the three great sects? Hearing what He Qianshan said, they were indeed filled with indignation.

Even many cultivators were already contemplating retreat, for although opportunities were important, life was even more precious.

Those allowed to attend the grand event of Mount Sumeru were all prodigies of their respective families, invincible within their own realms. To fight across realms was exceedingly difficult.

As everyone spoke, the environment around He Qianshan began to change.

Behold.

Behind He Qianshan initially stood a stone hill about half the height of a person.

The hill was rugged with stones, on which were carved strange Buddhas and mythical beasts—Suan Ni, Qiong Qi, Buddhist Pagoda, and various Ancient Fierce Beasts, all vividly detailed.

This was indeed the Supreme Treasure of Buddhism—Mount Sumeru, which ordinarily appeared no more than a hill the size of half a person.

But the space inside this small hill was vast, comparable even to the size of the Nanchi Continent.

On Mount Sumeru, these fierce beasts cowered and trembled towards the Buddha sitting calmly at the center on a lotus platform, clearly those fierce demons once suppressed within the mountain.

The Buddha carved into the stone was none other than the creator of Golden Buddha Mountain, Sakyamuni. He sat with majestic solemnity, suffusing the entirety of Mount Sumeru with solemn reverence.

At this moment, the lotus platform beneath Sakyamuni began to sparkle with golden Buddhist light.

The lotus shone brightly, emitting a radiant light, and the surging Buddhist rays began to emerge from Mount Sumeru, converging before He Qianshan.

Streams of Buddhist Law and the Dao flowed incessantly, and soon, a shining golden gateway manifested.

This gateway, bathed in Buddhist light and enveloped in sacred chants, appeared sacred and pure, like the gates to the Western Paradise.

However, the light screen above the gateway was still shifting, not yet fully open.

"Mount Sumeru is about to open!" Seeing this spectacle, everyone understood.

"Elder Fu Hu, please proceed. Now, it's up to you!"

He Qianshan looked indifferently at Fu Hu and spoke.

Fu Hu placed his palms together, chanting the Buddha's name. He stepped up to the divine gateway of Mount Sumeru.

Fu Hu sat cross-legged in front of Mount Sumeru, reciting Buddhist Scriptures, similarly enveloped in the radiance of a thousand rays of Buddhist light.

With the chanting of the Scriptures.

At that moment,

there came a "beep" sound as the light screen above the gatehouse began to dissipate. Within the gate, mists were heavy, and rosy clouds abounded. The solemn Buddhist light and the misty Immortal Qi spilled out.

The Mount Sumeru passage had fully opened!

"Such intense Qi of creation!"

The Spiritual Energy and Qi of creation surging from within the Mount Sumeru passage instantly set everyone ablaze with excitement.

This was merely the Spiritual Energy emerging from the passage of the small world, and it was already comparable to that of an ordinary Blessed Land.

It was hard to imagine what incredible opportunities and creatures of creation awaited inside Mount Sumeru!

Seeing the creation-enriched Spiritual Energy flowing from the passage, many cultivators who had been ready to retreat were now filled with fervor in their eyes.

With He Qianshan's resolute shout, Mount Sumeru was officially open.

The next moment, numerous geniuses surged towards the Mount Sumeru passage, afraid of falling behind.

"Remember, the Mount Sumeru passage will only be open for three days. You must return within these three days, or else you will be trapped inside the mountain until the next opening in thirty thousand years."

Hearing this, the crowd went mad, frantically propelling their movement techniques towards the gatehouse.

With only three days of open time, every second had to be fought for.

"Huo'er, Xian'er, you two must be extremely careful inside!" Ye Xuanji came over to Ji Huo'er and Ling Xian'er to caution them.

Although both of them were only at the late stage of the Immortal Platform Realm, their strength was not weaker than that of an ordinary practitioner in the late stage of Dragon Transformation; he was not overly worried about them.

"Grandfather Xuan Ji, you should also be careful!" Ji Huo'er said obediently.

Ye Xuanji, being at the late stage of the Great Saint Realm, could hold his own against all but the experts at the late stage of the Supreme Saint Realm, even having a chance to withstand a couple of moves against an ordinary late-stage Supreme Saint.

"Of course, even if I were to meet a late-stage Supreme Saint expert, I could still preserve myself," Ye Xuanji said.

After bidding farewell to the two, Ye Xuanji also shot towards the passage.

"Ye Shiyi, you've just broken through to the Meridian Opening Realm. If you encounter a high-rank Meridian Opening Realm martial artist or someone from the Spirit Martial Realm, you won't have any chance to fight back. Why don't you just wait outside for us to return?" Ji Huo'er looked at Ye Shiyi and said.

"No!" Ye Shiyi shook his head, his expression determined as he spoke: "The master once said that cultivation itself is a path against the heavens, and if one wishes to defy the heavens, one will inevitably face all kinds of life-and-death crises, maybe even a fate of soul and spirit scattering.

But I am ready. Since I have chosen this path, how could I possibly shrink back?"

Ye Shiyi was originally just a little beggar from a small city in Dongju Continent. After meeting Qinchuan, he embarked on the path of cultivation, and since then, his mindset had undergone earth-shattering changes.

"Good, if that's the case, then be extremely careful."

Ji Huo'er didn't try to persuade him further and instead spoke these words.

"Young Master Thirteen, be careful in everything."

Jiang Youwei was also by the side, offering his earnest advice.

"Okay, thank you!" This was the first time Ye Shiyi directly responded to Jiang Youwei.

As they spoke, everyone began shooting towards the Mount Sumeru gatehouse.

The radiance of the gatehouse bathed everyone in light, and as Ji Huo'er and others crossed through, they only felt a surge of warmth. Sudden dazzling lights flashed before their eyes.

As the lights faded, the world seemed to turn, and Ji Huo'er found herself in a strange place, surrounded by trees as thick as several people around, blocking out the sky and the sun, cloaking the land in darkness.

All around was silence; not only was Ye Shiyi's figure missing, but also Ling Xian'er and Jiang Youwei had vanished.

It turned out Mount Sumeru randomly transported cultivators to corresponding areas.

PS: I have seen readers mention that Ye Xuanji has reached the late stage of the Supreme Saint, I went back to look through the manuscript, and Ye Xuanji was at the intermediate stage of the Great Saint when he left Tianqing City; in chapter 574, he broke through to the late stage of the Great Saint during the battle with Xi Long. I did not see where he reached the late stage of the Supreme Saint, so there must have been a textual mistake concerning the Supreme Saint.
