The Hero Summit was going to take place tomorrow, and the atmosphere at Tai Wu Gate was bustling with activity today. After finding Yun Xiaojiao and company, Shen Xiang gathered them together before returning to Tai Dan King Palace. He moved all the medicinal herbs in his alchemy garden into his invisible ring.

The magical ring could store living beings and allow them to survive for a long time within, much like having a small Xuan Realm on your person. Although it was somewhat primitive, it was still quite convenient.

Unlike the Xuan Beast Bag, which could only store spiritual beasts, these spiritual beasts had the ability to absorb essence qi through their barrier and live well. Thanks to Shen Xiang’s mass production of Bestial Essence Pills, the spiritual beasts inside wouldn’t perish from lack of air or essence qi.

Shen Xiang had once inquired about Liu Meng’er if she could produce such rings. Liu said yes, but it would require very special medicinal ingredients and the use of many advanced spirit arrays. It could take decades to create one successfully.

Liu Meng’er was a master of alchemy, and the Xuan Beast Bag she created for Hua Xiangyue was later passed on to Shen Xiang. Her ability to create such items indicated that she had experience in crafting high-rank storage treasures.

"Where is Hero Mountain Why haven’t I heard of it before Do any of you know" asked Shen Xiang while digging the earth.

"I don’t know, but I guess it’s near Tai Wu Gate," said Su Meiya.

"It’s inside a mountain near Tai Wu Gate, and the place has an eerie kind of death. Although it’s suffused with this death, it’s not filled with the sort of negativity you’d expect. It seems like there are many deceased spirits who were pure and righteous!" said Bai Youyou.

Shen Xiang was taken aback. "That place seems to be a restricted area, not inside Tai Wu Gate but managed by it. Could this be Hero Mountain"

Long Xueyi said, "It’s very likely that it contains the remains of heroes who died in battles ten thousand years ago, but why are their spirits still there Do they need to be resurrected"

“Ten thousand years ago, relics of the ancient world have come back to life! What’s going to happen" Shen Xiang didn’t find it ridiculous, as he had seen resurrected double-headed snake demons in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain. If Bai Youyou’s sister hadn’t intervened, they would’ve given Gudongchen and company a hard time.

The soil in Shen Xiang’s small medicinal garden had long been watered with dragon essence, transforming it into spiritual soil that greatly assisted the growth of medicinal herbs.

After removing some of the medicinal herbs with their roots and soil, Shen Xiang placed them in his ring before digging the soil. The remaining tasks were given to the two beauties inside the ring.

After completing the excavation, it was already midnight. Shen Xiang sat on the rooftop, gazing at the full moon in the sky. He wondered about tomorrow’s events, not knowing that his master had promised him safety, or else he would’ve already fled.

Not many people in the mortal world knew about divinity, let alone those capable of divine abilities.

Before dawn, Gudongchen came looking for Shen Xiang. They were headed to Hero Mountain together now that many disciples from Tai Wu Gate had returned home, leaving only those at the Profane Martial Realm and a few True Martial Realm disciples behind. After Gudongchen and company left, Tai Wu Gate’s remaining disciples would all guard the entrance to the Xuan Realm.

As predicted by Su Meiya and company, Hero Mountain was indeed the forbidden mountain nearby.

Along the way, Shen Xiang saw Liu Meng’er sitting on a white jade flying lotus with Xue Xiaonian and Leng Youlan, while Gudongchen’s company walked.

Then, other continent’s leaders brought their disciples flying towards that mountain not far away. Shen Xiang saw familiar faces, including Lian Yingxiao from Lotus Island, Tang Yichao from True Martial Gate, Xiao Ziliang from逍遙仙海, and Yue Jianglin from Proudsword Sect.

He was even more astonished when he saw that the leaders of the Five Demon Sects were there too! He hadn’t seen Hua Xiangyue, who was the strongest in Danxiang Taoist Landscape. In Chenguang Continent and even all of the Eastern Sea, she was quite famous, although she became notorious after her identity was revealed.

"These fellows from the Five Demon Sects don’t seem confident about the妖魔 realm. After they came, everyone disavowed their relations immediately, let alone people from the mortal world!" muttered Gudongchen as he watched the Five Demon Sects’ leaders flying over with their disciples.

“It was said that the Hero Summit was held on Hero Mountain ten thousand years ago, so those who died in that upheaval were buried there. I wonder if anyone from the people who participated survived until now."

Wu Kaiming said, "It’s impressive that ancient people managed to keep the Profane Martial Realm safe during that war ten thousand years ago, otherwise our current realm would be filled with demons."

Shen Xiang had heard from Long Xueyi and company. After the three realms’ war, the passageway was closed based on the demon essence within each world. If a world was invaded by demons and had heavy demon essence, it would eventually be absorbed into the妖魔 realm.

A similar principle applied when humans attacked the妖魔 realm, with their passage closed and eventually entering the human world. However, this was rare; usually, human worlds were captured.

Therefore, protecting a world was the responsibility of all strong individuals in that realm. Unity was essential, but Saint Light Religion wanted to unify Eastern Sea through these passages for more resources. However, Chenguang Continent’s factions were all very strong and had vast territories, making them unwilling to be controlled by Saint Light Religion.

As they entered Hero Mountain, the sky was fully lit by dawn. Shen Xiang didn’t expect to find such a flat area atop the mountain’s giant peak, made of huge stones. It seemed old, and around it were many stone benches and tables that appeared rather rough. One table was a large square-shaped stone, similar to the benches.

People who arrived early had already taken seats. Each sect only got a table, but there was one large enough for forty people near the entrance, leading Shen Xiang to assume it was Tai Wu Gate’s spot.

Indeed, Gudongchen led Tai Wu Gate’s disciples to that table.

After sitting, Shen Xiang gave a friendly tongue wag to Xue Xiaonian and company as greetings. He knew he would soon face his doom, hoping for a good farewell with this fairy-like wife if possible.

Everyone arrived in silence, creating a tense atmosphere. Bored with the situation, Shen Xiang counted the number of tables instead and found there were over four hundred!

Aside from Tai Wu Gate’s large table, the others could only accommodate five people each. This meant the maximum number of participants in the Hero Summit was two thousand.ang was using spatial powers to cast this sensing domain. As long as he was in the same space with them, once they entered his domain, he would instantly sense them, and it wouldn’t matter if they hid...
