I'm working on Marvel's Spider-Man in American comics.
Chapter 756 First Arrival at Kunlun
Chapter 756 First Arrival at Kunlun
Kunlun Mountains.
Peter was hiking with Daniel. Neither of them brought any protective gear, warm clothing, or safety ropes. They were just wearing windbreakers, carrying cell phones and backpacks. If something happened, it would be excellent material for Secret Garden a few years later.
Old Wang, who was supposed to be there to meet them, didn't follow. He was just an ordinary person; once he got to the foot of the mountain with them, the job was done. The rest of the way, these two superhumans had to walk on their own. As Peter walked, he watched Daniel skillfully hopping and leaping, moving nimbly through the rugged terrain formed by the glacier's compression. He looked around; it was October, and the mountaintop was already a blanket of white.
Are you sure you won't step into a snow hole?
“I am very familiar with Kunlun, and the flow of Qi allows me to perceive the surrounding situation.”
As Daniel spoke, he took off his rain jacket and stuffed it into his backpack, then took a deep breath. Peter quickly looked around to make sure they were on a route that no normal person would take, a hiking trail that didn't exist for experienced hikers. If anyone else had happened to encounter this scene, they probably would have thought Daniel was starting to suffer from hypothermia.
"Hurry up, Peter, we're almost there, we're almost at Kunlun."
"Really? Is there a temple on the mountaintop, or a cave that we can pass through to reach our destination?"
Peter asked questions as he climbed the mountain, and saw Iron Fist reaching out his hand to him. He reached out and grasped Iron Fist's hand. The moment they touched, the surrounding wind and snow stopped, and the steep mountain path beneath his feet became flat ground. He staggered for a moment, then straightened up and looked around. Daniel couldn't help but smile: "We've arrived."
Peter looked around. The entire "Kunlun" was still mountainous, with continuous peaks all around. Looking straight ahead, one could only see the area above the mountainside, proving that this was also the summit of some mountain. From here, one could see a large number of wooden Chinese-style buildings built along the mountainside, almost as if climbing from the foot of the mountain to the top, with pavilions and towers scattered among the lush greenery.
Peter turned around and saw only a wide bluestone road leading to a huge mountain gate with three large characters written on it: South Heaven Gate.
"...I thought Kunlun would be more shrouded in mist and clouds, you know, more like a place where immortals live."
"That's what ordinary people imagine Kunlun to be like. After all, gods aren't allowed to interfere in the affairs of the mortal world. Even with a supernatural threat like the Hand, they only allow martial artists who have trained in Kunlun to form the Holy Society."
This is also the significance of the separation between heaven and earth: the gods and immortals will not interfere with the affairs of the mortal world, nor will they pursue faith and power, but will let human beings decide their own destiny.
The soldiers guarding the South Gate clearly recognized Daniel and greeted him. Peter followed them into Kunlun. Like the surrounding mountains, Kunlun was filled with numerous buildings. However, the people inside dressed differently from what Peter had imagined. Many were wearing contemporary clothing, and at first glance, most seemed more like humans than gods like the Asgardians.
"Then where do we go? How do we find the Spider Kingdom?"
"No rush, let's visit Lord Lei Gong first. He is Iron Fist's mentor and knows more about matters related to immortal weapons."
Peter's expression was a little tense. Although he had known for a long time that Lei Gong was the mentor of the Iron Fist throughout the ages, he still found it very strange when he heard that the Iron Fist was trained by Lei Gong, and that Lei Gong himself was the instructor of the 800,000 Imperial Guards of Kunlun.
And indeed, Lei was training a large group of martial artists in a training ground-like location. He was shirtless, revealing his well-defined muscles, but what was even more troubling was his appearance—or rather, Marvel's interpretation of him—covering the upper half of his face with a green bandana, strikingly similar to Iron Fist's attire. "I've been wanting to complain about this masking issue of yours for a while now. Everyone else's masks are normal, but you guys basically just wrapped a piece of cloth around your heads. Is that really effective?"
"The biggest use of a mask for me is to conceal my identity. There's no difference between having a custom-made mask and just covering my face with a piece of cloth, Spider-Man."
Daniel stood obediently to the side, waiting for Lei Gong to finish training his disciples. After watching for more than ten minutes, the disciples finally got a short break. Lei Gong then walked towards Daniel: "It's a pleasure to see you, Immortal Iron Fist. Have you come to exchange immortal power with Elder Shou again?"
"It's just on the way, Master Lei Gong. I was entrusted by someone to take this person with me to the Spider Kingdom to try the immortal trial of the mountain spider."
Hearing this address made Peter even more nervous. He could only clasp his hands in greeting. However, after carefully examining Peter, Lei Gong showed a surprised expression: "He has not learned how to use Qi. Strictly speaking, he is not even a martial artist. Are you sure he wants to participate in the Immortal Trial?"
"He is a powerful warrior, Master Lei Gong."
"That's why he shouldn't participate in the Immortal Trial; he'll miss out on a lot of things we need to learn."
Daniel countered, "No, he came here to learn these things."
Peter watched the two riddle-solving men talk for a long time, still not understanding what they were talking about. But they seemed to have reached a consensus after some discussion, although Lei Gong still made a suggestion first: "Take him to see the mountain spider first, and then you can go find Shou Lao in time. Perhaps he can provide you with some extra help then."
After the two finished talking, Peter asked Daniel, "What did you two mean by what you said?"
"What Lei Gong means is that you are too powerful. Powerful warriors are different from beginners and may not be able to understand the importance of all this training. But I think this is perhaps what you need to learn."
"The special thing about the power of immortality is not only its immense strength, but also its literal meaning—immortality. If a person obtains the power of immortality and coordinates it with the flow of Qi, then he can maintain his immortality as long as his Qi is still flowing. This is an extremely powerful force, and only those who are deemed qualified are worthy of obtaining it."
Peter understood what Daniel meant, so he asked Daniel in return, "But you don't seem to agree?"
"Because Lei Gong doesn't understand you, and perhaps you don't yet know how to control Qi, but I believe you are already qualified to become an immortal weapon."
The Kunlun realm in Marvel is actually not in the same dimension as the Immortal Realm (Daluo Tian). This is a simplified explanation for easier reference.
