Before long, the group arrived at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains.
Chen Feng noticed a massive stone tablet standing at the base of the mountain.
Carved on it were fourteen characters:
"Lush and boundless for tens of thousands of miles, the Kunlun Range stretches endlessly."
Chen Feng teased,
"Tens of thousands of miles? That’s impossible."
"The entire planet probably isn’t even that big."
At this, an old man gave an eerie smile and said,
"Young man, don’t be so sure."
"Once you’ve seen the dragon veins, you’ll understand."
Chen Feng was stunned.
"It seems the secrets of Kunlun are far from simple."
The martial arts guild’s records had no description of what the dragon veins looked like.
He was genuinely curious to see them.
Soon, the group stepped into the mist.
At the same moment,
all electronic devices lost signal and network connectivity.
However, basic functions still worked—
checking the time, playing music, recording videos, and so on.
The only issue was battery life.
The mountain paths were nonexistent, overgrown with dense vines and vegetation.
After trekking for several hours, Chen Feng’s surroundings finally began to open up.
The mist dissipated, and the group truly entered Kunlun Mountain.
"Finally made it in! My vital energy has dropped to that of an advanced martial artist!"
"Mine too. I feel completely drained."
"As a grandmaster, having my vital energy drop from over 7,000 to just 1,000 is unbearable."
Though they had prepared for this, the elders couldn’t help but lament the sudden loss of their vital energy.
The younger members, whose vital energy had already been around 1,000, didn’t feel much difference.
Once out of the mist, the group instinctively spread out.
Though it was night,
the sky was ablaze with stars, and the moonlight was bright.
Coupled with the enhanced senses of top-tier martial artists, visibility was almost as good as daytime.
The elders quickly picked up their pace, pressing forward.
Chen Feng knew their goal was to reach the legendary Jade Mountain and the Pool of Immortality as fast as possible.
Meanwhile, the younger members, including himself, hoped to find opportunities along the way to the dragon veins.
Over the next few days, the group of several hundred gradually scattered, each moving in their own direction.
As they advanced, they searched for rare treasures.
On the third day in Kunlun, a young man excitedly dug up a thousand-year-old fleeceflower root.
"I’ve struck gold! Hahaha…"
He immediately chose to turn back,
sparking envy among the others.
According to the rules, those who obtained high-value treasures were allowed to return immediately.
As they ventured deeper,
the original group of a hundred had completely dispersed.
Everyone was now hunting for treasures on their own.
Half a month passed.
By now, Chen Feng couldn’t see another soul.
From time to time, he spotted enormous footprints on the ground.
Based on this world’s common knowledge, those were likely left by Kunlun dinosaurs.
Yet after all this time, he hadn’t seen a single dinosaur, which disappointed him.
However, an elder had mentioned before leaving that the chances of spotting dinosaurs were higher near the dragon veins—
because dinosaurs were valuable treasures.
Their bones could fetch 5,000 yuan per gram and were a key ingredient in many elixirs.
Just as Chen Feng was taking a selfie with his phone next to a dinosaur footprint,
five figures lurked in the shadows behind him.
"Hardly anyone around now. I think it’s time to make our move."
"Don’t forget to take a photo with your phone afterward. We’ll need proof for the hall master."
After a brief discussion, the five crept toward Chen Feng under cover of darkness.
Wei Xu had also been quietly trailing Chen Feng.
He’d noticed the five figures following him but couldn’t discern their intentions.
He decided to wait and observe.
Now, seeing them suddenly accelerate,
he immediately signaled his own group to follow.
Meanwhile,
the alliance led by the Western Continent had begun sending people into the mist emanating from Kunlun Mountain.
They planned to wait for Great Xia’s forces to enter first, then infiltrate in small groups from the borders.
With nearly a million people involved, their movements were too conspicuous.
To avoid detection by Great Xia,
they would enter in staggered batches over time.
The exact number of invaders this time was known only to the highest-ranking commanders.
Most assumed it would be similar to past operations.
Even the spies Great Xia had planted were unaware that a million invaders were coming.
Since this event occurred only once every sixty years, none of the spies had experienced it before.
Unfamiliar with the scale, they could only relay all gathered intelligence to the Great Xia Martial Arts Guild.
Based on this information, the guild swiftly dispatched elite fighters to intercept the invaders.
As the Western Continent’s forces poured into Kunlun Mountain,
fierce battles erupted along multiple stretches of the mist-shrouded borders.
The covert division of the Martial Arts Guild
intercepted over a dozen attempted incursions,
killing thousands of invaders on the spot.
In such critical times, there were no prisoners—only swift burials.
Meanwhile, some were already emerging from Kunlun Mountain,
most carrying rare treasures.
The moment they stepped out of the mist,
they were greeted by eager merchants ready to make offers.
Others returned early due to injuries or other reasons.
However, all who exited were young—not a single elder among them.
Reporters and independent media waiting outside Kunlun promptly uploaded updates online.
...
Chen Feng had trekked over a hundred miles, from starlit night to midday sun.
He flipped through his illustrated guide to rare treasures,
hoping to stumble upon a valuable herb to ease his financial strain.
After all, he still hadn’t paid off his loans.
Whoosh!
A sharp sound cut through the air behind his head.
Chen Feng’s entire body broke out in goosebumps.
His state of "Unity of Heaven and Man" activated instinctively,
manifesting as a towering humanoid silhouette dozens of meters tall.
The figure waved its hand,
and several golden dragon projections solidified midair,
letting out thunderous roars as they deflected the ambush.
Seizing the moment, Chen Feng spun around.
A dagger the size of a finger clattered to the ground, knocked aside by one of the golden dragons.
Wiping cold sweat from his brow, Chen Feng realized—
had he reacted even a split second slower,
he might have been finished.
"A dagger aimed straight for the back of my head? Someone’s out for my life."
"Whoever you are, show yourself!"
Among the five from the War God Hall, the dagger-thrower exclaimed in shock,
"What the—he actually blocked that!"
"This kid’s reflexes are insane!"
"What kind of technique was that? It’s ridiculously powerful!"
The others snapped,
"Doesn’t matter what technique it is. He’s dead either way."
"Five top-tier martial artists against one? No technique can save him now."
"Enough talk. Surround him before he bolts."
With their cover blown, the five abandoned stealth.
They fanned out, encircling Chen Feng.
For added caution, they masked their faces—
no point risking identification if bystanders recorded the fight.
Seeing five burly men closing in, Chen Feng’s heart pounded with unease.
"Damn, why are there five of them?"
"I thought it was just one person."
This was Kunlun Mountain, and anyone appearing here at this moment was likely a top-tier martial artist.
Chen Feng was confident. With his current 500-point vitality value and the state of Harmony Between Man and Nature, taking on one top-tier martial artist shouldn’t be a problem. Besides, no one should know yet that his vitality had already risen to 500.
But now, with five appearing at once, he abandoned any hope of luck.
Chen Feng immediately reached into his pocket, pulled out a Vitality Pill, and swallowed one.
Seeing his action, the five scoffed:
"What’s the point of taking a Vitality Pill?"
"A measly martial artist like you—even with a pill, you’d only reach the level of an advanced martial artist at best."
"Facing five top-tier martial artists, that pill of yours is just a waste."
"Enough talk. Finish him quickly before anything goes wrong."
Just as they were about to strike, rustling sounds came from the side—and nearly a hundred more figures emerged, all with their faces concealed.
Chen Feng was stunned!
The five from the War God Dojo were equally dumbfounded!
What the hell was going on?
