"Ah~"

Many people hugged their heads and rolled around in pain when the noise came up. Warriors at low realms were hit the hardest as if they had been attacked by Lu Li’s Dragon Roar.

More than half of the 1000 passengers were above the Soul Pond Realm. The rest were miserable. Many of them feel like their heads were going to explode. They smashed their heads on the rocks, wounding themselves and bleeding…

"Control them!"

Jiang Hao shouted. He was not affected at all. Many escorts took action, with ach one of them grabbing one or two in pain. Jiang Hao shouted again, "Don’t be afraid. This is a special kind of wind in the Gargoyle Mountain. It will pass soon. Hang on."

Jiang Qiling was not influenced. Seeing that Lu Li was squatting on the ground with his heads in his hands, she came over, squatted down next to him and said, "Lu Li, hold on. It’ll be okay soon."

Jiang Qiling was not at a particularly high realm, only the later stage of the Fate Wheel Realm. Many warriors of the Fate Wheel Realm were in pain. Therefore, Jiang Qiling must have a very powerful soul.

Lu Li nodded. The pain was miserable, but he could manage. He clenched his teeth with great efforts. Yu Huashen and Ming Yu glanced over and they were relieved when they found no enemies.

After the time for half an incense stick to burn, the shrill voices died down. People felt better. After a while, the noise was gone. Lu Li exhaled. He wiped the sweat off his face, raised his head to look at Jiang Qiling, and asked, "What the hell is this place? Why is the gravity here so horrifying? Also, there is that strange noise."

Jiang Qiling said after some thoughts, "This is the Gargoyle Mountain. It is the place with second most treasures in the northern Central Plains, and of course, the second most dangerous place. Every few years or a dozen years, there will be many Purple Crystals and Soul Crystals being erupted here. With that, wind in upper space will appear. There are terrifying caves of ghosts in many places as well. Those caves can suck people right in. Once, a warrior of the Human Sovereign Realm was sucked into a cave and he never came back again."

"What?"

Lu Li, Yu Huashen, and Ming Yu were taken by surprise. Not even warriors of the Human Sovereign Realm could get out? Then everyone present here would most likely die if they got into one of the caves of ghosts.

"Don’t worry."

Jiang Qiling comforted them. "Only places erupting Purple Crystals and Soul Crystals have caves of ghost. You will be fine. Just don’t wander around. There usually isn’t any Xuan Beasts around here, but when there is eruption, some Gargoyle Rats will come out, highly unlikely, though. There isn’t any caves of ghosts here. We will be fine…"

Lu Li, Yu Huashen, and Ming Yu finally understood the situation after Jiang Qiling’s explanation.

More than 10 days ago, scouts of the Pavilion of Delicacy entered the Gargoyle Mountain but they didn’t see and indication that there was going to be large scale uprising. Therefore, Jiang Hao had made a decision to let the Iron-armored Ship fly right through the mountains. After all, a detour would cost them another two or three months.

They didn’t think that today they happened to run into a large scale uprising after the more than 10 days’ of relative small scale incidents. When these things happened, gravity in the mountains would be increased which was why the Iron-armored Ship fell.

Since there was no Purple Crystal or Soul Crystal nearby, they should be safe for the time being. After this round of uprising ended, gravity would go back down and then they could leave.

The right way to deal with the current situation was to stay where they were. Once someone entered an area with eruption, they might be sucked into a cave of ghosts or run into some Gargoyle Rats. Nobody could save them then.

"What is Purple Crystal? Some kind of Xuan Crystal? Also, what is Soul Crystal?" Lu Li was curious.

Jiang Qiling didn’t hold back any information from him. She said, "Purple Crystal is a kind of special Xuan Crystal. One Purple Crystal is worth of 10,000 Xuan Crystal. Purple Crystal is more of high-grade. We usually call them the Purple Xuan Crystal. Here… this is a Purple Xuan Crystal."

Jiang Qiling handed over a piece of Xuan Crystal. It was smaller than the usual Xuan Crystal, but it was prettier.

"Soul Crystals are used in the cultivation of souls."

Jiang Qiling continued in a low voice after checking the surroundings. "Soul Crystals are high class materials. One piece is worth of a million Xuan Crystals. When you consume a Soul Crystal, your soul will be strengthened. Of course, if you use too many of them, the effects will be reduced. Otherwise, they will be more valuable. Also… if you see any Purple Xuan Crystals and Soul Crystals erupting, don’t go near the caves of ghosts. If there are some falling near you, you can pick them up. But don’t go to the caves of ghosts. You must remember this."

Jiang Qiling warned them. She didn’t go back to Jiang Hao. When a steward walked by, she pointed to a small hill nearby and said, "Build me a tent here. Help this Young Master and build him two tents as well."

"Yes~"

The steward was afraid to dissatisfy Jiang Qiling. He called some escorts over immediately and built three tents on the top of the hill. Two of them bigger and the other one smaller.

"Let’s go. We cannot leave any time soon."

Jiang Qiling called over two maids and entered one of the tents with them.

She seemed more of herself and saner now. Lu Li thought about it and said, "Let’s go. Let’s see how it goes."

Lu Li carried Little White in his arms and went into a tent. Ming Yu worried about him so he entered Lu Li’s tent as well. The tent was a simple one. There wasn’t much in here, just a bed on the ground and some cushions.

Lu Li asked Yu Huashen and Ming Yu to sit down. The latter two tried to scan the surroundings with their psychic power but it was blocked. They could only reach an area with a radius of less than 1000 feet.

The hundreds of escorts were as busy as bees. They began to arrange the passengers to settle down. Nearly a thousand tents were built and some escorts were going out to investigate.

"Bang~"

The ground abruptly shook. Lu Li rushed out of his tent at once and looked towards where the noise had come. There was a purple glow, covering the sky, like a purple firework in the sky. However, the glow was covered by the steam so it was not clear.

"There are some Purple Xuan Crystals coming out over there?"

Lu Li murmured. He put on a more solemn look. Their sights were obstructed here, but he could somehow see the glow. It must not be from a very faraway place.

"Whoosh~"

A figure rushed over and stood outside of Jiang Qiling’s tent. It was Jiang Hao. He looked to the distance and said, "Qiling, it is not safe here. We need to go now."

"Boom, boom, boom~"

Before Jiang Qiling could come out, the ground nearby suddenly shook more violently, then a cave appeared in a hill nearby. Purple steam rushed out from the cave, rising to the sky. There happened to be several people nearby. They were carried to the sky by the purple steam and then they were smashed down. Blood fell like rain.

"Go back—"

Seeing that there were still many people nearby the cave, Jiang Hao shouted. Many of those people probably were so terrified that they forgot how to react. Some were even trying to grab the Purple Crystals in the steam.

"Fall back, back. The cave of ghosts is going to suck you in. There will be Gargoyle Rats. You can die!"

Another warrior of the Noble Lord Realm shouted. Those people finally came to their senses and they quickly retreated.

Still, some were not quick enough. The cave suddenly started to suck people in. More than a dozen people were affected. Rubbles and sands were flying all around. Many Purple Xuan Crystals and Soul Crystals were sucked back in.

"Squeak, squeak~"

Little White suddenly broke free of Lu Li’s hugs. It rushed towards a white Soul Crystal on the ground. However, the ground was shaking again…

Lu Li was scared. He angrily shouted, "Little White, it’s dangerous. Get back here."
