What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

Soon, they arrived at the outer perimeter of Starfall Mountain.

Upon arriving here, Qi Shi'an was surprised to find that the interior of Starfall Mountain was like two different worlds from the outside.

If the outer world is a colorful world, then the interior of Starfall Mountain is an endless black and white world.

The surrounding area is surrounded by rolling mountains, with purple mist rising from them, creating a magnificent and auspicious landscape, like a pure land of good fortune.

The Starfall Mountain is enormous, with its peaks reaching into the clouds as if it has no end. The mountain is shrouded in wisps of white mist, exuding a mysterious aura and giving people a sense of ancient vicissitudes.

Some people tried to probe with their divine sense, but found that their divine sense could not penetrate the fog at all.

"This place is truly mysterious and unpredictable. I wonder how many of us will survive."

The leader was somewhat worried. Although they had a map and their chances of survival were extremely high, he was still afraid of the worst-case scenario.

This place is a recognized forbidden area. No one who has entered has ever come out alive. They have all vanished without a trace, leaving not even a skeleton.

"But we have no way out; we can only choose to trust the Little Demon King," Mu Yan sighed.

They have a lot of followers behind them, which they can't possibly deal with all of them. In addition, they are still recovering from their injuries, and now nearly three days have passed. They estimate that the four great creatures are still behind them.

The Fire Emperor can save them temporarily, but not forever. Now, the only way is to cross realms.

"Since we're here, let's give it a shot!"

"Yes, we'll fight to the death and then survive. What's there to be afraid of? Maybe we can come back alive!"

Many elders wanted to venture into Starfall Mountain, but their current path to survival was blocked. They might as well try their luck on this "dead end."

"Don't worry, the teleportation array left over from the inheritance will definitely work. I'm very confident about that!"

Qi Shi'an was also uneasy. Although Supreme Luo Xiu had helped him break through to a higher realm and had even given him a Ten Fierce Treasure Technique, when it came to life and death, anyone would hesitate.

However, for now, we can only believe that if this Starfall Mountain is indeed a treasure left behind by Supreme Luo Xiu, then it should be able to identify Supreme Luo Xiu's aura.

And on his person, there happened to be a treasure that carried a trace of Luo Xiu's aura—Moro Peak!

"Then let's go for it!"

Lei Zumu Yan's eyes were resolute, and his body was crackling with purple lightning, as if he were about to explode at any moment.

"All disciples, stay close behind the elders and don't fall behind."

The sect leader gave the order, and all the disciples stood close to the elder, their expressions serious, not daring to hesitate in the slightest.

Qi Shi'an took out a small mountain and released wisps of black mist, which, under his control, entered the bodies of everyone in the Butian Pavilion.

These black mists all carried a trace of Supreme Luo Xiu's aura. If his guess was correct, they would definitely not encounter any accidents on this trip and would be able to reach the mountainside safely.

Moreover, he also wanted to know the connection between Starfall Mountain and Supreme Luo Xiu.

Qi Shi'an guessed that there must be some unknown secrets about Starfall Mountain that made Supreme Luo Xiu attach great importance to it. It must be related to immortals!

He couldn't think of any reasonable explanation for something that would attract the attention of even a Supreme Realm expert, except that it was related to immortals.

Led by the elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, the group slowly walked into Starfall Mountain.

As soon as they stepped inside, the white mist within Starfall Mountain became even thicker, almost obscuring everyone's vision, making it impossible to see anything beyond ten meters.

As everyone looked up, they saw that most of Starfall Mountain was shrouded in mist, but at the summit, a faint blood-red light flickered, emanating a faint pressure.

This faint crimson light became the only color in the desolate Starfall Mountain!

"Everyone, hold on tight and don't stray more than ten meters apart, lest you trigger some unknown restriction."

Lei Zumu Yan walked solemnly ahead, cautiously scouting the way.

If he were to encounter any mishap, those behind him could be evacuated from Starfall Mountain in an emergency.

Upon hearing this, everyone pressed themselves even closer together, with nearly three hundred people crammed together, none of them letting anyone out of sight.

Qi Shi'an followed closely behind Tao Ye, constantly alert to his surroundings. The Moro Peak in his palm emitted a dim light, giving him a sense of security.

And so, the members of Butian Pavilion cautiously made their way towards the high mountain, as if walking on thin ice.

Meanwhile, outside, all the forces lying in ambush felt a little calmer after witnessing everyone from the Heaven-Mending Pavilion step into Starfall Mountain, a place they considered a "forbidden zone."

"Haha... All the remaining members of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion have entered the forbidden area; they are doomed!"

"No rush, let's wait a few more days and see if any of them take the opportunity to escape."

"Hmph, who can leave Starfall Mountain, a universally recognized forbidden area, alive!"

Many factions were discussing the matter, believing that the members of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion were already dead the moment they entered Starfall Mountain.

After all, so many outstanding talents and heroes throughout history have entered it in search of opportunities.

To this day, not a single person has managed to walk out alive.

The forces that had been lingering on the outskirts of Starfall Mountain waited anxiously for several days, but still no one came out. Everyone's faces lit up with joy.

"Haha... He hasn't come out for several days, he must have died inside!"

"Alas, how pitiful. He wanted to enter Starfall Mountain to find a chance to turn the tables, but in the end, he was reduced to ashes."

"There's nothing to sigh about. It's better if they're all dead, then no one can pose a threat!"

The representatives from various factions displayed a variety of expressions, some lamenting, some indifferent, and some joyful.

Finally, none of them lingered any longer and chose to leave to return to their respective factions to report the news—the Butian Pavilion had perished at Xingyun Mountain!

However, while these forces were holding victory celebrations, the members of the Butian Pavilion, located in the Starfall Mountain, had already arrived at the entrance of a quiet cave.

"Is this where the formation is hidden, as depicted on the map?"

Lei Zumu Yan stared solemnly at the dark cave entrance before him, which resembled a black hole capable of swallowing up anyone who entered.

Although none of them perished along the way, the memory still sends chills down their spines and evokes a sense of immense danger.

After traveling for several days, they encountered countless corpses, broken artifacts, and flowing blood along the way, all of which filled them with dread.

The higher they climbed, the more desolate the place became, and the more skeletons and remains they found, each one containing immense power.

There are even the remains of gods and saints who have fallen!

The blood shed by countless sages has flowed into a river of blood, flowing upstream.

Like a river of the underworld reaching to the heavens, carrying blood, bones, and wronged souls, it drifted towards the summit of Starfall Mountain, where it condensed into a faint crimson light.

The scenes unfolding before their eyes filled everyone with terror, and all they wanted to do was escape as quickly as possible.

Qi Shi'an was also sweating profusely, thankful that he had the foresight to take out Moro Peak in advance and implant a black mist into everyone's bodies.

The black fog resisted the erosion of the white mist, allowing them to reach their destination safely.

"Let's go. We're already here, and besides, we haven't encountered any danger along the way, so it should be safe inside as well."

Lei Zumu Yan was once again the first to lead the charge, entering the dark cave.

Everyone followed. The cave was pitch black, and they could only rely on the faint light in their hands to guide their way.

Qi Shi'an kept a close eye on the changes at Moro Peak. Since climbing to the mountainside, the eerie light emanating from Moro Peak had become noticeably stronger.

He also tried to release a wisp of black mist, which was able to merge with the white mist, as if Moro Peak was originally part of Starfall Mountain.

Qi Shi'an has more and more mysteries in his mind, and perhaps he will find the answers in the future.

Their current goal is to find the teleportation array and safely reach the Xuan Domain!

Chapter 73 Immortal Gold

Inside Starfall Mountain, the members of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion slowly made their way forward according to the location shown on the map.

The cave was dark inside, with a whistling wind coming from the depths. A gentle breeze blew through the crowd's hair, bringing a chilling cold that was quite unsettling.

Qi Shi'an held the Moro Peak, releasing endless black mist to protect everyone, and secretly absorbed and merged some of the white mist.

He wanted to see if he could prove his doubts: was Moro Peak part of Starfall Mountain? Could the black and white mist have some special function?

Why did Supreme Luo Xiu erase everything about Starfall Mountain? These questions were etched into Qi Shi'an's mind, arousing a deep curiosity.

The elders were utterly astonished to see the small mountain in his hand emitting a ghostly light, from which wisps of black mist continuously billowed.

They didn't know where the little devil had gotten the hill from, but they could sense that it was an incomparably precious treasure.

The fact that the black mist emanating from it could help them travel freely through this forbidden area shows just how extraordinary the small mountain was.

They had some guesses that this treasure might have an extraordinary connection with Starfall Mountain.

"arrive!"

The pavilion master looked ahead, where a ray of light appeared.

The moment everyone saw the light at the exit, they were filled with tears. They had been working tirelessly for several days without a moment's delay.

At this moment, they are only one step away from escaping the forbidden area and heading far away to the Xuan Domain!

"Don't be too happy yet, stay alert!"

Lei Zumuyan interrupted everyone's thoughts. At this moment, they were still inside the forbidden area, and danger could appear at any time. They must not let their guard down until the very last moment.

There's a reason why Starfall Mountain is called a forbidden area. So many people have entered, yet no one has ever left, which shows just how dangerous it is.

After continuously absorbing the white mist, Moro Peak in Qi Shi'an's hands underwent a strange change.

Moro Peak, which was originally a dark mountain, was now shrouded in gray-white mist, its aura being no different from that of Starfall Mountain. A few runes also appeared on the mountain.

Furthermore, Qi Shi'an discovered that Moro Peak originally only had five layers of restrictions, but now, after incorporating some white mist, it showed signs of recovering a sixth layer of restrictions.

This unexpected change startled Qi Shi'an, who thought to himself, "Indeed, Moro Peak was originally a corner of Starfall Mountain, but for some reason, it was refined into his own supreme treasure by Supreme Luo Xiu."

This idea was proven, which further fueled his curiosity about Starfall Mountain.

The Starfall Mountain that could pique the interest of Supreme Luo Xiu must be a treasure related to immortals, and perhaps it even holds the secrets of true immortals.

The members of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion walked together into the light, where several huge rocks stood. At the center of the rocks was a teleportation array, with endless runes engraved on it.

The surrounding stone walls were covered with azure crystals, which were incredibly beautiful. Even the boulders were covered with azure crystals.

The light they saw was the glow emitted by this crystal.

The most dazzling and unique one is the black ore located at the very top of the center of the formation.

It was about five meters wide, pitch black all over, and surrounded by wisps of eerie dark light, its radiance as intense as the sun, and incredibly mysterious.

"This is... Dark Immortal Gold!" the Pavilion Master exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, everyone was somewhat puzzled, except for Lei Zumu Yan and Qi Shi'an, who were as surprised as the Pavilion Master.

"Sect Master, what is Dark Immortal Gold?" Tao Ye asked in confusion.

"Dark Immortal Gold is a supreme treasure formed by the pollution of dark matter by natural elements. As can be seen from the word 'immortal' in its name, this treasure is extremely rare and even immortals covet it."

"Moreover, this kind of immortal gold is indestructible and extremely heavy. Even a fist-sized piece of dark immortal gold weighs hundreds of thousands of kilograms. This piece, which is that big, must weigh at least several hundred kilograms, or even tens of millions of kilograms."

"These kinds of precious materials are usually spiritual, and can even take human form to cultivate and attain the Great Dao!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded. Even True Immortals coveted this treasure, which was now right before their eyes. How could they not be shocked?

Upon hearing this, Qi Shi'an immediately thought of Master Jingbi in the Void God Realm. Master Jingbi was originally a celestial being who had attained enlightenment, so he had no doubt about what the Pavilion Master said.

What he didn't expect was that the cave halfway up the mountain contained such a treasure as Dark Immortal Gold. What kind of treasure must be on the mountaintop?

"Sect Master, if we obtain this treasure, the Heaven-Mending Pavilion will surely regain its former glory!"

Tao Ye stared intently at the dark immortal gold, wishing he could dig it out immediately.

"Forget about it. Such a treasure is beyond our reach right now. Judging from its form, it is likely already sentient, and its strength must be extraordinary."

"Moreover, this kind of celestial material contains a rich dark essence, and one could easily become tainted by misfortune if one is not careful."

The Pavilion Master's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over everyone's heads, extinguishing the flames in their hearts.

"That scary?"

Elder Xiong Fei was unwilling to accept this. If such a celestial treasure had not appeared, it would have been fine, but now it was right in front of him, and he was unable to obtain it.

The Pavilion Master calmly said, "Don't worry, with this map, we can come back and take it when we have the ability to avoid being corrupted by darkness in the future."

"Very well, then we can only wait until another day to retrieve it." Elder Zhuo Yun said with considerable regret.

At this moment, the members of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion stood in the formation, and the elders activated the runes on the formation.

In an instant, the place was filled with dazzling light, shimmering with rosy clouds, rising in a misty haze, and shrouded in black fog.

Such inter-domain teleportation arrays consume enormous amounts of resources. They originally thought they would have to use all their treasures to activate the runes within the array.

As it turned out, a new world opened up before them, and the azure crystals here were enough for them to cross the realm.
