Chapter 342: Chapter 275 Yellow Stone Mountain, Land of Sword Relics
The next day, early morning.
“Ruan Ruan, let’s go.” Su Yuan called out.
“Squeak!”
Ruan Ruan, who was beside him, leaped up high and transformed into a bracelet, wrapping around Su Yuan’s wrist.
Su Yuan squeezed it lightly and then went out the door.
First, he headed to the office building to meet Zheng Chusheng. Then, Zheng Chusheng summoned a dragon made of water mist that enveloped them and flew swiftly towards the back mountain of the academy to the east.
Back Mountain Gorge.
A dragon of mist rapidly descended from the edge of the sky and landed deep within the gorge. As the mist dissipated, Zheng Chusheng and Su Yuan’s figures were revealed.
“How about my Fog Dragon Technique?” Zheng Chusheng smiled.
Su Yuan rubbed his temples. “Impressive, but a bit too shaky.”
“Haha, you just haven’t adapted to it yet.”
Su Yuan silently shook his head. Who would want to adapt to something like this…
In comparison, Bai Ze’s Floating Cloud Technique was much more comfortable.
Casting aside his thoughts, Su Yuan began to examine his surroundings.
Not far ahead was the end of the gorge. Other than a single path, the sides were completely mountainous, almost completely visible at a glance.
But Su Yuan didn’t see any entrance, which puzzled him.
“Teacher Zheng, where is the Land of Sword Relics?”
Zheng Chusheng seemed leisurely. “Why don’t you try to find it?”
Hearing this, Su Yuan didn’t hesitate. Silver light glowed in his eyes as he unleashed his All-Knowing Vision.
Within the scope of his All-Knowing Vision, no tiny detail could escape his detection. It took only a moment for Su Yuan to scan the entire gorge without any findings.
Su Yuan frowned slightly. Since Zheng Chusheng brought him here, the entrance to the Land of Sword Relics must be here.
“Could it be hidden within the mountain?”
Su Yuan changed his mindset. The silver light in his eyes intensified, and he used his X-ray Ability to see if there were any problems within the mountain.
With this attempt, Su Yuan’s expression changed slightly.
Originally, his All-Knowing Vision combined with his Far-Sighted ability could see through several mountains. But now it reached its limit after only penetrating less than one meter into the mountain!
“Oh?”
Su Yuan’s eyes narrowed. He activated his White Flame Burning Body, which greatly enhanced his X-ray Ability, allowing him to see several meters into the mountain.
Su Yuan’s gaze quickly scanned the surroundings. Soon, he found a structure within the mountain at the end of the gorge that differed from the surrounding mountain body.
Because it was encased within the mountain, it wasn’t very obvious. But Su Yuan could make out that it was a giant bluish green stone gate!
Su Yuan dissipated his Great Sun Burning Body Technique and All-Knowing Vision and walked a few steps to the end of the gorge. He knocked on the mountain wall.
“Teacher Zheng, is it here?”
Zheng Chusheng, seeing where Su Yuan pointed, was surprised but couldn’t help but nod in admiration.
“Not bad. As expected of the strongest genius in Demon Capital, you actually found it!”
Zheng Chusheng walked to Su Yuan’s side, looked at the mountain wall in front of him, and whispered, “Reveal the entrance, Yellow Stone Mountain.”
Accompanied by a peculiar wave, the rock on the mountain wall began to move. Just as Zheng Chusheng said, it parted to the sides on its own.
Within a few moments, an immense bluish green stone gate, nearly ten meters tall, appeared before Su Yuan and Zheng Chusheng!
“Truly magnificent…” Su Yuan marveled. It was his first time seeing such a large gate.
However, Su Yuan didn’t rush forward. Instead, his curiosity about the change in the mountain deepened. It could easily alter its terrain and hide such a large stone gate within.
“Teacher Zheng, is this a Barrier, Magic, or…?”
“No,” Zheng Chusheng shook his head. “It’s a Star Device.”
Su Yuan was stunned. “A Star Device?”
“Correct. This entire mountain is an Epic Star Device named Yellow Stone Mountain. Moreover, it was produced from within the Land of Sword Relics!”
Su Yuan looked around the entire gorge and couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
“A Star Device this enormous? It’s simply astounding!”
“Astounding?” Zheng Chusheng shook his head.
“Yellow Stone Mountain can change in size. It can grow to three times its current size or shrink to the size of a fist.
The larger the size, the greater the strength of Yellow Stone Mountain with the force of the Five Mountains pressing down.
The smaller the size, the stronger its defense, almost like Absolute Defense!
Being both offensive and defensive, it is considered exceptional among Epic Star Devices.”
Su Yuan smacked his lips silently, re-evaluating the mountain before him.
“Compared to this Yellow Stone Mountain, Blue Star Artifacts simply pale in comparison…”
Zheng Chusheng slowly said, “Of course. The gap between Epic Star Devices and Blue Star Artifacts is far greater than you might imagine.
For the ordinary, elite, and master grades, we usually refer to them by their corresponding colors.
But for epic, legend, and myth, we generally call them by name because colors aren’t sufficient to convey their value!
From the Epic Star Devices onward, they possess a certain level of spirituality and often wield extraordinary divine skills.
If white, green, and blue Star Devices are compared to just ordinary iron, the difference between ‘transcendent’ and ‘mortal’ objects,
then from the Epic Star Devices onward, we can truly call them ‘divine items’!”
Divine items…
After hearing Zheng Chusheng’s explanation, Su Yuan felt his horizon broaden.
The difference between Star Devices was indeed much greater than that of Skill Star Cards.
Perhaps some extremely top-tier Skill Star Cards could match the top-tier Star Devices of the same grade.
But regardless of the level, Star Devices’ value floors were always higher than those of Skill Star Cards.
While cheap Blue Star Cards cost just two or three hundred cent star stones, the worst Blue Star Artifacts cost at least a thousand cent star stones.
