Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Reportedly, the Heaven and Earth Mutant Fruit of Mount Tai is about to ripen. All the forces in China have arrived at Mount Tai!”
On the day that Ye Chen returned, an earth-shattering news came from Mount Tai. It immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
Ever since the spiritual energy recovery, the world had changed.
Famous mountains like Mount Tai and Mount Hua were no longer tourist attractions. Instead, they had become dangerous lands.
It was because these famed mountains had been filled with fog for the past ten months. Vicious beasts roamed within them, and ordinary people would die if they ventured too deep.
There was once a force that attempted to attack these famed mountains, but they were all wiped out in the end. From then on, these famed mountains were treated as forbidden grounds.
One month ago, the spiritual energy on Mount Tai, the head of the five mountains, was suddenly unsealed. A mutant fruit appeared and emitted a fragrance that stirred China.
In the end, they could not resist the temptation and headed for Mount Tai. Humans could not resist it, let alone beasts.
“What? All the forces have gone?”
Someone could not help but exclaim, “Could it be that the six Chinese consortiums are also here?”
Ever since the spiritual energy recovery and the great changes on Earth, six major consortiums had appeared in China.
They were Star Group, f.u.xi Taiji, Nuwa Maker G.o.d, Pangu Biogenetics, Primordial Gene, and Spiritual Energy Recovery.
These six consortiums were terrifyingly powerful. They started to study the human body and invented measures such as gene serum and spiritual energy firearms. It could be said that they controlled the core power of cultivation in China and were regarded as sacred grounds by all the mutants.
“Yes, you’re right!”
Someone chuckled, “In fact, the six consortiums arrived at Mount Tai a month ago on the day that the mutant fruit appeared!”
“Even the six consortiums have taken actions. Oh my G.o.d, what a big move. It’s definitely a big move. Looks like the mutant fruit that has appeared this time is definitely extraordinary!”
“I once heard that this mutant fruit was born from the luck of Mount Tai. It can allow an ordinary person to become a level-9 mutant!”
“That’s right. I’ve also heard that Mount Tai has been hailed as the head of the five mountains since ancient times. The emperors of all dynasties have held a ceremony to wors.h.i.+p the heavens here. Naturally, it is extraordinary!”
An insider revealed a great secret, “Rumor has it that when the mutant fruit on Mount Tai appeared, the sacred image of Mount Tai manifested!”
When this secret was released, the entire world erupted into commotion.
After the spiritual energy recovery, the animals and plants underwent a mutation. Some of the more talented humans awakened directly and became mutants. Although most people could not awaken on the spot, they discovered a way to become mutants.
That was to consume the mutated spirit fruit and use the spirit fruit to transform one’s body to become a mutant. Naturally, the process was extremely dangerous.
As the world gained a deeper understanding of the spiritual energy recovery, many biotech companies started to use these mutant fruits to develop the gene serum. It allowed ordinary people to become mutants.
Now that the mutant fruit on Mount Tai had caused such a huge commotion and even caused a phenomenon, how could it be ordinary?
At the same time, a piece of news was released.
“The six consortiums joined forces and attacked Mount Tai with large-scale spiritual energy weapons. Within a month, they paid an extremely painful price and finally killed the beast horde on Mount Tai, successfully reaching the summit!”
Before everyone could react, another piece of news spread, “The No. 1 person in the Star Group, the Patriarch of h.e.l.l, suppressed the other five consortiums and the mutants. He dominated Mount Tai. Unfortunately, an ancient almighty appeared on Mount Tai and suppressed the Patriarch of h.e.l.l!”
As this news spread, countless people were shocked.
“What? An ancient almighty has appeared? The No. 1 person in the Star Group, the Patriarch of h.e.l.l, has been suppressed?”
Someone was shocked, “How is that possible? The Patriarch of h.e.l.l was a powerhouse before the spiritual energy recovery. After the spiritual energy recovery, he was known as one of the only eight powerhouses in China!”
“The news was spread by the people of the five consortiums, so it can’t be wrong. Furthermore, the five consortiums are communicating with that ancient almighty and trying to cooperate with him.” Someone who knew the situation chuckled.
“Oh my G.o.d, the five consortiums are trying to take that ancient almighty under their wing. In that case, the Star Group is in danger, and it might even be destroyed by the five consortiums!”
For a time, many people began to worry about the future of Star Group. After all, after the beast horde outbreak, Star Group had contributed a lot to the safety of mankind.
Especially when the five consortiums were scheming against each other and trying to control China, the Star Group still sent out their mutants to cooperate with the government to suppress the beast horde.
“Sigh, what a pity!”
A portion of the older generation said with tears in their eyes, “Star Group was the property of the former No. 1 person in China, Mad Southern Ye. If Mad Southern Ye was still alive, these clowns wouldn’t have the chance to behave atrociously!”
“Mad Southern Ye? You think too highly of him!”
Someone retorted with a cold smirk, “It’s true that Mad Southern Ye was the No. 1 in China before the spiritual energy recovery. Don’t forget that times are different now!”
“Well said!”
His words were immediately approved by the others, “After the spiritual energy recovery, the Age of Mythology came and we entered the era of cultivation. The rocket launchers developed by the five major consortiums are enough to destroy him!”
Countless people agreed. After all, the future generations would not remember the history of their predecessors forever. It was just like how a rookie celebrity dared to look down on an old celebrity.
And as fanatics of this rookie celebrity, they bombarded the old celebrity on Weibo just because he had never heard of their idol’s name.
…
While China was busy discussing the mutant fruit of Mount Tai, high up in the sky, a private jet manufactured by the Star Group led to Mount Tai.
Ye Chen looked at the tablet in his hand calmly while carrying his daughter. He was quietly learning about the situation in the country and abroad.
Actually, what he wanted to know the most was the situation on Mount Tai. He wanted to contact Yang Tian, the patriarch, and the others through the communicator.
However, after the spiritual energy recovery, the magnetic field had changed. The magnetic field of famed mountains such as Mount Tai was even more chaotic.
Even as one of the six major consortiums, Star Group still had no means to break through the magnetic field of Mount Tai and cover it in real time.
Subsequently, he cast his gaze towards the Luo siblings behind him and said, “Brother Luo, Ms. Luo, what do you think about this matter?”
“Chaotic!”
Luo Tianya frowned, “The secular world is too chaotic right now. To be honest, the recovery of spiritual energy has the greatest impact on the secular world!”
“That’s right!”
Luo Shuiyao nodded as well and said, “Ye Chen, you have to be careful. I once heard from my grandfather that there were some saints who chose to sleep 500 years ago to deal with the great calamity of the world. They must be the ones who woke up after the spiritual energy recovery!”
“Saint?”
Ye Chen peeled a grape and fed it to his daughter. He said in a voice that only he could hear, “I’ve even killed immortals before, let alone a mere saint!”
