Chapter 296 Mortals Worse Than Pigs and Dogs! The Changchun Sect Has Arrived!
The night passed quickly.
Inside the cave on Caixia Mountain, Chen Fan also slightly opened his eyes.
As he exhaled a breath of stale air, a glint of golden light flashed in his eyes.
With a smile playing on his lips, he stretched his back and then walked out of the cave.
Looking up, the sun rises high in the sky, and countless rays of light envelop the entire Caixia Mountain, making it resemble a fairyland shrouded in mist.
Moreover, this place is rich in spiritual energy, making it a veritable paradise for cultivators.
Chen Fan smiled as he greedily inhaled two mouthfuls of spiritual energy, then walked away with his hands behind his back towards the rest of Caixia Mountain.
He hasn't even had a chance to explore the area since arriving here yesterday to rest.
After all, this was the territory of the Changchun Sect, and Chen Fan had heard more about this behemoth than seen it.
He was quite interested in seeing what it looked like inside.
With a thousand thoughts swirling in his mind, Chen Fan quickly left the cave and headed towards the main hall.
That's where the disciples of the Qingyun Sect gather.
They were out of place with the visiting cultivators and naturally possessed a sense of superiority.
Chen Fan, who was passing by, certainly wouldn't make a fool of himself. He only glanced at the scene twice before walking off in another direction.
After passing the main hall, a clanging sound, similar to striking iron or stone, soon came from ahead.
Curious, Chen Fan scanned the area with his divine sense and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
What came into view ahead was the back mountain outside the main hall, and at the foot of the mountain, people in tattered clothes and with disheveled hair were mining!
With numb eyes and pale skin, they looked like walking corpses.
"This is... a mortal..."
After taking a closer look, Chen Fan immediately recognized the identities of these people.
Incredulous, he followed and walked closer.
Some ordinary people, upon seeing him, dared not even look him in the eye, and even avoided him in fear.
"You...are all from Dayuan, right?" Chen Fan asked tentatively upon seeing this.
Unfortunately, these people had blank stares and did not respond.
Like corpses, they numbly used their tools to dig for ore.
Chen Fan shook his head slightly upon seeing this.
Without wasting words, he casually waved his hand, then used gravity magic to grab a middle-aged man, saying:
"Tell me your origins if you want to live!"
"Kill me!" the dark-skinned, vacant-eyed middle-aged man said in a hoarse voice.
"Kill me..."
Chen Fan, who was squinting, swallowed hard.
Even though he didn't kill anyone, he arrested several more people for questioning.
In the end, without exception, these people were all apathetic and single-mindedly seeking death!
Left with no other choice, Chen Fan had to resort to soul searching!
The truth he uncovered after searching the soul was chilling!
According to these people's memories, they were all ordinary people from the Great Abyss, some of whom were even martial artists.
At different times, they were captured by the Changchun Sect and made into slaves, living a life that was neither human nor ghost!
Over time, countless people have died on Caixia Mountain, and this is just one of the Changchun Sect's peaks!
Knowing the truth, Chen Fan felt a mix of emotions.
He had heard about the fact that the immortal sects regarded mortals as worthless grass for a long time, and he had heard most of these things from Jianwen.
That kid said that the Changchun Sect, under the guise of selecting immortal seedlings, was capturing people and enslaving them all over Dayuan, treating human life like dirt.
Not content with humiliating ordinary mortals, the Changchun Sect also wanted the Great Abyss royal family to make endless offerings to them and act as their puppets.
This also led to the Da Yuan royal family developing rebellious intentions and wanting to break free from the control of the Changchun Sect.
At that time, Chen Fan was somewhat moved when he heard about these things, but he was still somewhat numb!
After all, he was just a eunuch who raised horses. What did it matter to him if the royal family and Emperor Changchun were at odds?
However, when Chen Fan first saw the Changchun Sect keeping ordinary people as slaves, he still felt a lot of anger.
And he suddenly felt that Jianwen's rebellion was reasonable; overthrowing such a sect was indeed something everyone had the right to kill!
With this in mind, Chen Fan walked past the slaves and toward the area around the mine.
As he passed some mines along the way, he could easily see piles of white bones resembling small hills.
The sight of mountains of white bones was so shocking that Chen Fan felt his scalp tingle!
You should know that Caixia Mountain is just one of the many mountains in the Changchun Sect!
If this place is like this, what must the other mountains be like!
This is especially true of the eight major sects; in their eyes, these mortals from the eight countries are no different from pigs and dogs!
With a mix of emotions, Chen Fan sighed inwardly and left the mining area.
Leave the mine.
Chen Fan then visited the Caixia Mountain Herb Garden.
Looking around, the ground here is completely bare.
Forget about medicinal herbs, I didn't even see a single weed.
Some of the land was even uprooted and taken away!
This place has obviously been completely looted!
Somewhat disappointed, Chen Fan shook his head slightly and walked towards other areas.
Hoping to find a bargain, he wandered around for a while but ended up finding nothing!
Enemy attack!
The Changchun Sect has arrived!
Just then, a powerful and resonant voice came from Caixia Mountain. It was Qingmuzi from the Qingyun Sect!
Then Qingyunzi, Yundaozi and the others all shot into the sky and disappeared!
Seeing this, Chen Fan also rushed towards the main hall!
On the way there, he met up with Zhou Xin and the others, and they headed down to the plains below the mountain!
On the plains of Caixia Mountain, thousands of Changchun Sect disciples arrived one after another.
They came in large numbers, like a dark cloud!
Some powerful cultivators flew on swords, while others arrived riding cranes!
Most of them were outsiders like Chen Fan, whose cultivation levels were not high and who were all at the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Realm!
As they marched down, a murderous aura instantly filled the plains!
"Qingyunzi...who gave you the audacity to oppose my sect?"
Under everyone's watchful eyes, a familiar figure quietly appeared!
"Xuanmiaozi..." Chen Fan smiled as he recognized him at a glance.
I still remember the last time I saw this person was when Emperor Yongle was offering sacrifices to Heaven at the Temple of Heaven.
I never expected that we would meet here in Caixia Mountain!
"Xuanmiaozi... The Changchun Sect is in turmoil, yet you still have the mind to come here? Interesting!"
As he rose into the air, Qingyunzi, standing with his hands behind his back, smiled and said:
"You won unfairly last time, shall we try again today?"
snort!
Upon hearing this, Xuanmiaozi snorted coldly and, without uttering any further words, raised his hand and swept his sword horizontally!
The terrifying sword energy spread out, unleashing an astonishing aura of the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment!
"I thought you had broken through to the Core Formation stage..." Qingyunzi shook his head and said:
"Unfortunately, you're only at the Foundation Establishment stage... In that case, prepare to die! Form ranks!"
Qingyunzi gave the order!
Chen Fan and the other thirty-six people instantly lined up and assembled!
With the combined power of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Sword Formation, a pressure surpassing even the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment suddenly appeared!
Standing atop the sword formation, Qingyunzi raised his hand and waved it, and an eighty-foot-long giant sword appeared out of thin air!
Just as Xuanmiaozi's sword energy approached, the sword fell straight down...
