"What if you didn't see me again?" She asked. She never thought that there will still be good people existing. "Then it's fate" the man replied. "Okay if you say so. First of all do you know where the Moon clan is located?" She asked and the man's eyes widened "Heavens! You are from the Moon clan?" the man almost screamed. Even though he managed to restrain himself he was a thread away from bouncing up and down.
Xinyi could tell that what was keeping him sane was he didn't want someone else to notice and share the connection glory with him. But she didn't mind all of that, she just need the information she is looking for. "Yes I am. But I lost contact with the people I came here with, leaving me lost. Now can you tell me what I asked for?" She said.
"Of course! Of course! I don't really know much about the Moon clan, but I heard that they were once considered a very powerful clan even in Primal world as a whole. That time they were the dominant force at the extreme north of the world where there is eternal ice landscape and no other Ice related force dared to come too close to them. But now not only have the Fox clan taken root at the extreme north but even the Bing clan are sharing the extreme north with the Moon clan" the man shook his head and sigh as if lamenting on the unfairness of the passage of time.
"Back then who doesnt know about the Moon goddess? The Sun god, the colorful ancient dragon, the phoenix empress and others, those powerhouses where at the top of the world, at least the people known to us. Then it was said that the Moon goddess left the world to seek a breakthrough. As you know, this world is powerful and unique, it's not that she couldn't breakthrough if she stayed but she have stagnated and wanted a faster breakthrough so she left to seek luck" he said.
Xinyi couldn't help but ask "When she was leaving didn't she know that the Moon clan will be put in a difficult situation?". "How would she know that the current moon clan won't be able to stimulate their Moon bloodline to its potential? As you know, the Moon bloodline if stimulated to the peak won't lose to the dragon bloodline. Of course just as the dragon bloodline have levels, the purity of the Moon bloodline have levels too. But alas. The reason the Fox clan and the Bing clan let the Moon clan reside there with them despite their weak strength is due to their fear of the Moon goddess. If she returns one day and find out her clan has been extinguished, it will be bloody" he sighed and muttered "If the Moon goddess and the Destiny Imperial were in good terms she would have warned her of her clan decline..." he muttered but Xinyi heard it clearly.
'Who is the Destiny Imperial?' she thought. "Anyways are we in the north?" she asked and the man laughed "Of course not. We are in the east region. Although its the edge closest to the north but its still far. Even if you enter the north, it might even take you a lifetime to reach the extreme north, besides there is potential danger to life at every step of the road, especially for weaker cultivators. I suppose the people you came with made use of teleportation arrays from domain to domain to be able to reach here. How come you don't know any of this?" the man eyed her suspiciously.
"It's not that I'm not aware but as I have no spirit stone with me I have no other option than trying to reach there by flight" she explained herself. "That's true" when she heard the man respond she exhaled.
"How can I earn spirit stones aside from killing monsters?" Jade asked. [I will be using the name Jade or Xinyi from now on as they mean the same thing. Yue also means Moon which is her family name]
"Aside from killing? Then it will be if you find rare treasures like long lost weapons or if you discover ores for making weapons. Or if you find a spiritual fruit, even better if you find immortal fruits. If you take them to the treasure hall you will receive satisfying rewards based on what you need. Be it spirit stones, cultivation techniques, weapons and so on" the man said and Jade snorted inwardly. If she find a spirit fruit or immortal fruit she will eat it herself, why exchange?
And based on the man. The only place to find all these things is in the boundless mountain. It is said that no one knows how big or deep the boundless mountain is. Rumours have it that inside the deepest part of the mountain resides demon emperors and heavenly demons but no one who have set foot at it center have ever returned alive. They might not even need to reach the center before they meet their death.
As for the superpower who have ventured there will not come and be sharing what they saw, leaving everyone with questions till now. But one thing was certain, approaching the middle of boundless mountain is a death wish. You do not even need to reach the middle as if you don't get killed, you might die of old age before you succeed. Just heading deeper you will encounter immortal beasts you can't even run from.
"You have not told me your name?" Jade asked "Oh sorry. I'm Xie Dong. I live in this Rock city" he said with a smile and Jade nodded. "You can call me Miss Yue. I will be heading to the boundless mountain now to try my luck. We will see later. Bye" Jade said and with a step she disappeared from the man's sight shocking him. "Even with my cultivation at the peak of unification realm I didn't even see how she moved" he said and turn towards a resturant.
"That was definitely not flying. But what was it?" he couldn't figure it out so he waved it off. Entering the resturant she maneuvered everyone and headed to a secret room at the upmost floor. "Master Yuwen, I have something to report" he said.
After a minute, a voice came from inside the door "What is it?"
"A member of the Moon clan just arrived at the rock city. And based on what I have noticed, she is powerful" Xie Dong said.
"She? When did the Moon clan birth a female who could travel alone without fear?" And then there was silent.
