Before dawn the next day, Qin Fengming rose on his own. A little over half an hour later, a towering mountain that pierced the clouds appeared before him. The mountain was magnificent and imposing. Looking up, he saw a layer of white mist completely enveloping its peak, making it utterly different from the surrounding mountains. This was undoubtedly Yellow Sparrow Mountain.
Qin Fengming cautiously released his spiritual sense. To his astonishment, it could not penetrate very far. After a moment's thought, he realized that this place must have been protected by powerful restrictions.
Standing beneath the mountain, he saw cultivators flying in from afar at intervals. Without stopping, they went straight into the white mist and vanished from sight.
Seeing this, Qin Fengming did not linger. With a movement of the cultivation art within him, he too flew toward the white mist.
Atop the mountain, a level area spanning a hundred zhang appeared before Qin Fengming. Gazing at the houses and halls before him, he felt as though he had stepped into a secular town.
Various buildings stood in orderly rows. At a rough glance, there appeared to be several streets. Shops lined both sides, their signs representing every conceivable trade. Hundred Treasures House, Treasure Gathering Tower, Divine Artifact Hall, Artifact Refining Workshop, and countless others could be seen. Several restaurants and inns were even interspersed among them.
Everyone walking along the streets was a cultivator. They came and went, while cultivators also entered and exited the halls and shops. The entire place was bustling with activity.
As he walked through the streets, Qin Fengming secretly weighed his options, unsure which shop he should enter.
Suddenly, a shop bearing the words "Thousand Soldier Pavilion" appeared before him. It was extraordinarily grand, clearly standing head and shoulders above the surrounding shops.
