Chapter 1640 - 1463: Heavenly Patrol Order_4

"I see." Ye Guichen suddenly realized, and instead of hurriedly attacking Netherworld Mountain, he first had everyone stop to rest while he himself headed to the Black River's edge.

Sitting cross-legged, Ye Guichen sent his mind straight into the Jiuyou Tower.

He summoned the Ghost King and went with him to where the Holy Infant was imprisoned.

Since the Holy Infant is the reincarnation of an Immortal, he must know some things about Immortals. There's no one better to ask than him.

Moreover, the Ghost King seems to come from the Chaos Sea.

With a ready guide, why go to great lengths?

"Ghost King, do you truly come from the Chaos Sea?" Ye Guichen looked at the Ghost King and asked.

The Ghost King naturally understood the purpose behind Ye Guichen's question about the Chaos Sea and promptly replied, "Indeed, I come from the Chaos Sea, but back then, my departure was entirely by chance."

"Oh? Let's hear it."

The Ghost King explained, "There's a hidden gate above the Chaos Sea, isn't there? It's said that within the hidden gate, the Demon Clan's experts are imprisoned, and even the former Demon Saint is held there. However, as time passes, the hidden gate is becoming increasingly unstable, and the Demon Clan seems intent on breaking free from their seal."

"This is precisely why, over the past century, demon winds frequently sweep out from the hidden gate, and each time, they stir up huge waves on the Chaos Sea."

"By accident, I got close to within a hundred miles of the hidden gate and was swept up by the demon wind from within. At the time, I thought I was doomed, but unexpectedly, I ended up here. Left with no options, I decided to cultivate a Ghost Pill; swallowing a Ghost Pill might allow me to reach a higher level and return to the Chaos Sea."

"So you can't find your way back to the Chaos Sea?" Ye Guichen teased.

The Ghost King blushed: "During all this time, I've secretly explored Netherworld Mountain, but strangely enough, it seems endless. No matter how I climb, I can't reach the summit. So, the legend seems true; if one can truly traverse Netherworld Mountain, maybe they'll find the Chaos Sea."

Ye Guichen nodded, indicating he understood, and his gaze fell again on the Holy Infant.

The Holy Infant was squatting on the ground, somehow having obtained a small wooden stick, poking at the sand on the ground.

Hearing Ye Guichen and the Ghost King's conversation, the Holy Infant didn't even look up.

"Hey, last time when you devoured that Chang Hu, was it satisfying?" Ye Guichen kicked the Holy Infant.

The Holy Infant rolled over to one side, lifted his head, and looked at Ye Guichen with a face full of grievance: "What exactly did I do to offend you? Why do you treat me like this? It's fine that you keep me here, yet you bully me from time to time? In my past life, I was an Immortal. If it weren't for the fact that I've lost my cultivation in this life and need to retrain, I'd have pinched you to death with a mere finger."

Seeing the Holy Infant, he still seems unconvinced.

Ye Guichen chuckled, not angry, and stepped forward to grab the tuft of hair on the Holy Infant's head, lifting him up: "How about you pinch me to death now, let me see?"

"Ah! Ah! Ow, ow! Let go, let go!" The Holy Infant screamed, kicking his arms and legs, but his little arms and legs were no match for Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen didn't let go, just held the Holy Infant like that: "When I ask, you answer. If you cooperate honestly, I might be kind-hearted enough to let you go. But if you don't answer, heh, heh, I don't mind using the Jiuyou flame to burn your little bird for fun!"

The Holy Infant was so frightened by this that he quickly covered his little bird, glaring spitefully at Ye Guichen: "What do you want to ask?"

"Very simple, how much do you know about Netherworld Mountain, and if one wants to enter Netherworld Mountain, what should they do? And once inside, how can one traverse over it."

Ye Guichen finished speaking and looked at the Holy Infant expectantly.

The Holy Infant pouted: "Do you think it's that easy to traverse Netherworld Mountain? It's said to have formed at the dawn of the earth's creation; unless you have a Heavenly Patrol Order, no matter how high your cultivation is, you can't cross it."

"Heavenly Patrol Order?"

Ye Guichen's eyes lit up: "What is this thing?"

"Hah, you know nothing!" The Holy Infant showed a face full of disdain, but was lifted strongly by Ye Guichen again, and painfully gave in: "Just knows to bully the weak. Alright, alright, I'll tell you, is that okay?"

The Holy Infant begged for mercy while saying, "There's a Heavenly Patrol Order on Netherworld Mountain, hidden away somewhere on the mountain. As for whether anyone has found it today, I don't know."

"There's a Heavenly Patrol Order on the Netherworld Mountain?"

Ye Guichen was incredibly delighted.

If that's true, then attacking Netherworld Mountain this time is truly worthwhile.

Once Netherworld Mountain is conquered, finding the Heavenly Patrol Order will be a breeze.

At that point, crossing the Chaos Sea and achieving the ultimate Immortal path.

Haha, just imagining it is delightful.
