Chapter 1219: The Fake
Peerless Medicine God · 第1219章 “李鬼”
The Divine Fall Mountain Range stretched vast, spanning hundreds of millions of miles.
It lay in the far south of the Divine Domain, and no one knew where its end was.
Because no one could fly across the Divine Fall Mountain Range!
Not even Divine Path powerhouses!
Legend in the Divine Domain said that countless Divine Path powerhouses had fallen within the Divine Fall Mountain Range.
Some Divine Path powerhouses had attempted to force their way across, but the farther they flew, the more unstable the space became.
With one misstep, even a Divine Path powerhouse could hardly escape disaster.
Yet during the Divine Path era, even though those powerhouses knew how dangerous it was, they still flocked there.
Even if it meant dying there, they did not hesitate.
Why they did so had long become an unsolved mystery.
Over time, it came to be called the Divine Fall Mountain Range.
But for the powerhouses of the Divine Domain today, the Divine Fall Mountain Range was a treasure trove.
Though dangerous, it held countless opportunities.
Amid the flow of people, four figures walked slowly.
These four were none other than Ye Yuan, Bai Guang, Lü'er, and Yue Mengli, who had traveled from afar.
For this trip to the Divine Fall Mountain Range, Ye Yuan and his companions had made considerable changes to their appearances and taken Sealing Yuan Pills to suppress their cultivation to around the Dao Profound seventh or eighth level.
There might be demon spies in the Divine Fall Mountain Range; if they were discovered, it would be a considerable danger for them.
Dealing with three Demon Gods, Ye Yuan could still manage.
But if five attacked together, the outcome would be uncertain.
"Big Brother, why are there so many people at the entrance to the Divine Fall Mountain Range?" Bai Guang asked in confusion.
"With the demon calamity erupting, aside from the Mystic Gates, the Divine Fall Mountain Range is probably the safest place. But those who dare come here must have some strength," Ye Yuan said.
"Taking refuge in the Divine Fall Mountain Range? Are these people crazy? Before the demon calamity passes, they'll probably all die here!" Bai Guang said.
"They come here to gamble on a slim chance, hoping to obtain supreme inheritances and gain the power to protect themselves," Ye Yuan said indifferently.
"Heh, with the demon calamity erupting, everyone thinks only of escape. They'd rather risk their lives seeking opportunities here than face the demons head-on. How pathetic! Even if these people obtain supreme inheritances, would they truly fight for humanity like you and Senior Fang Tian?" Bai Guang said disdainfully.
Ye Yuan sighed and said, "Let fate take its course! Perhaps among these people, someone really can obtain a heaven-defying inheritance and break through their shackles? Heaven never seals off all exits. If I can't do it, I hope someone else can step up."
To be honest, Ye Yuan himself was uncertain whether he would succeed.
Not to mention whether he could find the Kunlun Divine Wood; even if he did, he had no confidence that the Inverse Dao Pill could truly go against the Dao.
"Quick, quick, go see! I heard that the Divine Sovereign of Lingtian has also come to the Divine Fall Mountain Range!"
"What? The Divine Sovereign of Lingtian! He's a great hero of humanity, currently fighting the demons in the Demon Domain. How could he be here?"
"I heard he's come to seek a breakthrough opportunity to fight the demons!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go see!"
The four were walking along a mountain path when they suddenly heard a group of people nearby discussing animatedly.
Hearing these remarks, the other three looked at Ye Yuan with strange expressions.
The Divine Sovereign of Lingtian had indeed come, but judging by those people's attitude, they clearly weren't referring to Ye Yuan.
Could there be a second Divine Sovereign of Lingtian?
Ye Yuan smiled wryly and said, "What are you looking at me for? Let's go see, shall we?"
Bai Guang laughed, "Haha, of course we have to go see! I want to see just what kind of character this 'Divine Sovereign of Lingtian' really is!"
Just then, a martial artist at the Dao Profound seventh level happened to pass by them. Hearing Bai Guang's loud laughter, he said in surprise, "You haven't even heard of the Divine Sovereign of Lingtian? How ignorant! Now that the demons are rampant and the six great Demon God powerhouses are watching covetously, during the battle at the Misty Sect, when all hope seemed lost, the Divine Sovereign of Lingtian descended from the sky. A single dragon roar shook heaven and earth, directly killing one of the six Demon Gods and severely wounding the other five, forcing them to flee..."
The martial artist rattled on, recounting Ye Yuan's heroic deeds, and even Ye Yuan himself was quite amazed.
In this guy's words, he had practically been deified.
Yue Mengli and Lü'er both covered their mouths and laughed, making Ye Yuan feel a bit embarrassed.
But since the man was enthusiastically explaining beside them, he couldn't bring himself to drive him away, so he had to brazenly accept it.
Not far ahead was an open space, already crowded with a large group of people.
In the center stood a young man in white, with an imposing aura, heroic and spirited, quite the image of a master.
Beside the young man stood a man and a woman; the man was also young, and the woman had some charm.
"Lord Ye Yuan, could you tell us about the battle at the Misty Sect? We've long admired your style!" a martial artist said with a look of reverence.
The young man in white smiled faintly and said, "Of course! I know there are many rumors outside, but those six great Demon Gods were nothing special! At that time, I used a single move, the Sky-Breaking Dragon Roar, and scared them out of their wits..."
The young man in white was eloquent, describing the battle at the Misty Sect vividly, as if he had truly experienced it himself.
The surrounding crowd listened with admiration, exclaiming in praise.
"The Divine Sovereign of Lingtian is truly a hero of humanity!"
"Long live the Divine Sovereign of Lingtian!"
"By the way, Lord Ye Yuan, since those Demon Gods are so vulnerable, why didn't you just destroy them? Why come to the Divine Fall Mountain Range to train?" someone suddenly asked.
The fake Ye Yuan smiled and said calmly, "What do you know? The strongest among the demons are not just the Demon Gods! They are mere underlings! The true masters behind them are the real drivers of this demon calamity! My current strength is still somewhat lacking compared to them, so I came to the Divine Fall Mountain Range to train, find an opportunity to break through, and then lead humanity to fight back!"
Ye Yuan and his companions were also quite amazed by his words.
That there were even stronger beings behind the Demon Gods was something few in the Divine Domain knew.
This fake Ye Yuan actually knew such things!
Ye Yuan was watching with interest when he noticed Lü'er beside him looking a bit downcast. He asked curiously, "Lü'er, what's wrong? Who bullied you?"
Lü'er pouted and said unhappily, "Young master, look at the one next to him—that must be Bai Guang, and that woman must be Sister Li!"
Ye Yuan was taken aback, not quite understanding, but Li'er covered her mouth with a smile, leaned close to Ye Yuan's ear, and whispered, "Lü'er is upset because since they're impersonating, why did they leave her out!"
Ye Yuan suddenly understood and laughed, "Haha, from now on, wherever I go, I'll bring my Lü'er along. That way, they'll know that the young master has a beautiful and lovely Lü'er by his side. How about that?"
Lü'er was overjoyed and said, "Young master, you said it!"
Just then, a middle-aged man suddenly jumped out, pointed at Ye Yuan, and sneered, "Hey, you say you're the Divine Sovereign of Lingtian? Just like that? The Divine Sovereign of Lingtian is of such strength—how could he mingle with the likes of us? In my opinion, you're a fake Divine Sovereign of Lingtian!"
