Chapter 1595: Chapter 1591: Slicing the Mountain

With the destruction of the Netherworld Chicken, gratitude from all directions converged on the Heavenly Sword.

Chu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrow.

This gratitude from all directions rolled in like mighty rivers.

The birds and beasts around had suffered from the Netherworld Chicken for a long time.

This gratitude was gathered, absorbed, and transformed by the Heavenly Sword to strengthen itself.

The Elephant Beast urged, "Come on, come on, let’s hurry."

It couldn’t wait to see if the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree could restrain those Strange Beasts.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, gracefully moving forward.

Within a hundred-mile radius, no Strange Beasts came to harass.

Their message transmission was unimaginably fast.

It was through a unique method of message transmission, three points faster than his movement technique.

Everything went smoothly, the Elephant Beast’s tail swayed rhythmically, enjoying itself.

After a hundred miles, another Strange Beast blocked the way, it was a Mystic Tiger, mightily intimidating, with a roar that shook the soul.

Chu Zhiyuan activated the Heavenly Sword to directly kill it.

And then he easily traveled over two hundred more miles.

He understood it was the domain of this Mystic Tiger.

In this realm, he killed the ruler, creating an intimidation, daring no more hindrances.

Beyond this domain, other rulers would not yield.

Finally, he killed two more Strange Beasts, encountered two batches of experts, and appeared at that mountain cliff.

They stood at the foot of a mountain, stood on the treetops in a dense forest, looking up.

The Elephant Beast stood on his left shoulder, its left paw on its right brow, peering and then sitting down: "This is the place, it hasn’t changed much!"

Chu Zhiyuan sized up the cliff.

Around were towering peaks, lush and green, overhead like mist or smoke.

This cliff nestled among them, quite inconspicuous.

He turned to look at the Elephant Beast.

The Elephant Beast proudly said, "I remember it clearly, this is it."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "How did you come across it?"

The Elephant Beast shook its head, not speaking.

Chu Zhiyuan chuckled, didn’t ask further, continued surveying the cliff.

The cliff protruded out eastward, forming a beckoning shape.

At first glance, it seemed to stand atop the peak, waving in the wind.

To the west, it was sheer and steep, as if carved by a knife.

Chu Zhiyuan pondered, "This must be the remnants of a fierce battle, right?"

"Hmm, two Divine Race members battled, cleaving this cliff like this."

"Two Divine Race members..." Chu Zhiyuan’s eyes brightened.

A moment later, his eyes returned to normal, exclaiming, "Truly worthy of the Divine Race!"

Among the two, one used a knife, one used a sword.

This cliff was split by a single stroke from that knife master.

He saw the middle-aged man soar to the skies, striking down with a knife.

No earth-shattering phenomenon, yet the mountain peak split in two.

Creating a seventy-thirty split, the seventy portion remained stable, unmoving, while the thirty shook and then collapsed, forming this precipice.

"They vanished here," Chu Zhiyuan pointed at the cliff: "Haven’t emerged since, so you surmise this is a Grotto Heaven? Or perhaps they ended together."

This cliff’s peculiarity is its ability to block the Divine Eye, let alone Super Sense.

What Super Sense and Divine Eye see is a vague interior, unclear.

Perhaps due to special materials, or covered by a Spiritual Artifact, or having a unique power.

At least power at the Divine Yuan Level is needed to do so.

The Elephant Beast snorted, "I saw it myself, but that Grotto Heaven is very dangerous, far more than that of the Heavenly Escape Sect."

Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded, "Then let’s go in and have a look."

The Elephant Beast said, "Be cautious, don’t capsıze in a ditch."

Finally reaching here, failing at this final step would be too wrong.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

The Heavenly Sword unsheathed at his waist, flying out silently, heading towards the cliff.

The Heavenly Sword was like his Clone, agile in its ascent, reaching above the cliff, overlooking all around, then heading to a cave.

That cave seemed to be a beast’s den, only half a man’s height.

The Heavenly Sword drilled in.

He didn’t use Flying Knife.

Flying Knife could also replace him, becoming his eyes and spirit.

But Flying Knife connects through Heart and Spirit and soul.

While his link with the Heavenly Sword is through Heaven and Earth’s will.

It’s faster, more stable, broader than Heart and Spirit and soul.

This cliff can sever his connection with Flying Knife but cannot sever his link with the Heavenly Sword.

Chu Zhiyuan explored the inside of the cliff through the Heavenly Sword.

He closed his eyes, unmoving.

The Elephant Beast stood on his left shoulder, gazing alertly around, its eyes narrowed as golden slits.

It feared Strange Beasts might attack at this time, which was extremely dangerous.

After a moment, the Heavenly Sword silently appeared before him.

Chu Zhiyuan extended his hand.

The Heavenly Sword descended, the scabbard precisely falling into his palm.

"How was it?" The Elephant Beast spoke in his mind: "Was I not mistaken?"

"It truly is a Small Cave Heaven." Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded: "Is this an Array?"

"Not an Array, naturally formed," said the Elephant Beast: "No array is this strong."

Transporting a Small Cave Heaven to a cliff, there’s no such array in the world.

"Not like the wooden box?"

"The wooden box’s Small Cave Heaven compared to this Grotto Heaven?" The Elephant Beast snorted: "It’s too different, no array can move such a large Grotto Heaven!"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "The world is vast, filled with wonders, leaving one in awe."

It was a naturally formed spectacle, making people marvel at the wonders of creation.

The Elephant Beast asked, "Do you want to go in and see?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

The Elephant Beast asked, "After so many years, are there still living beings inside?"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "Alive and well, no less than here."

This cave within the cliff far exceeds the wooden box’s comparison.

Like the difference between ponds and lakes.

Moreover, importantly, the interior of that Grotto Heaven is more abundant in Spiritual Energy, far beyond the Heavenly Escape Sect’s Small Cave Heaven.

The Spiritual Energy within the cave is even richer than that of Biyuan Heaven.

Though not quite like Outer Heaven, it’s not far off either.

Inside the cave, vegetation flourished, birds and beasts were diverse, each occupying a region, it had already formed a complete and complex ecosystem.

Yet, inside there was no trace of humans, possibly because the time was too short, the Heavenly Sword hadn’t surveyed the entire Grotto Heaven.

Perhaps people existed inside but hadn’t been seen.

"What will you do?" The Elephant Beast curiously asked, "Do you want to enter and see yourself?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

He looked up surveying the cliff.

The Elephant Beast said, "Then what will you do?"

Chu Zhiyuan slowly said, "Let’s see if it can be moved into my Heaven and Earth."

"This is a mountain!" The Elephant Beast replied.

Chu Zhiyuan had previously moved the Dragon Tree and mudstone into that domain, but it was doing piece by piece, tree by tree.

And this is a mountain.

If he did it like that, surely it would fail, possibly damaging the Grotto Heaven.

Then who knows what might happen, the greatest likelihood being this Grotto Heaven completely separating from the Divine Domain.

Chu Zhiyuan solemnly looked at the cliff, slowly said, "Let’s try first."

The Elephant Beast tightly nodded.

Chu Zhiyuan flew upwards, arriving above the cliff, overlooking both sides.

The Heavenly Sword gently swung.

A gentle Sword Aura shot out, slicing towards the other side of the cliff.

The Sword Aura pierced into the stone, continuously downward, silently like a knife through tofu.

Chu Zhiyuan flicked his sleeve.

"Boom!"

Like a thunderous explosion, on the east side of the cliff, an approximately meter-thick stone plate slowly split and then fell to the ground, creating a crashing roar.

This cliff was forcibly shaved off a layer by the Sword Aura, thinning it by a margin.

Chu Zhiyuan concentrated his senses, the Elephant Beast’s eyes also became golden lines.

He turned to the Elephant Beast: "How is it?"

The Elephant Beast replied in his mind: "No problem."

"Then, again."

The Heavenly Sword swung down once more.

The cliff was shaved off another layer again.
