The Heavenly Dragon's Beginning in the Journey Through the Heavens

Ling Feng listened to their discussions throughout, and his previously anxious heart finally calmed down.

Judging from their discussion, it proved that the plot had not truly begun yet. Ling Feng was worried that something unexpected might happen, causing the plot to start ahead of schedule, which would mean he would miss out on the opportunities in Langhuan Paradise.

Having confirmed that the opportunity still existed, Ling Feng stopped trying to eavesdrop on their conversation and instead pondered the content of their words in his mind.

The sudden large-scale attack by the Divine Dragon Gang on the Boundless Sword Sect was already somewhat suspicious. Ling Feng had been puzzled before, as even the books from his previous life didn't explain it in detail. It turns out that the root of everything lies here.

The Lingjiu Palace, under the control of Tianshan Tonglao, was already extremely domineering. Although Tianshan Tonglao's period of rejuvenation was approaching, her strength remained unfathomable, and even the most outstanding masters in the martial arts world dared not provoke her easily.

Moreover, Lingjiu Palace is always very secretive, and it is difficult for outsiders to know the inside story.

It's truly baffling that the secret of the Heavenly Child Granny was leaked this time.

Ling Feng fell into deep thought. Who leaked this information? And what was their purpose?

Could it be that someone wants to take advantage of Tianshan Tonglao's weakness to harm Lingjiu Palace? Or is there some other conspiracy?

A host of questions arose in Ling Feng's mind, and he felt that things were far more complicated than they appeared.

But that's none of his business. As long as these people don't stop him from seizing the opportunity, Ling Feng won't care whether they live or die.

With this in mind, Ling Feng's eyes hardened. He told himself that he had to be careful and not let anyone ruin his plans.

The reason why the Wuliang Sword Sect chose to test Tianshan Tonglao at this critical juncture was probably because they were hoping that Tianshan Tonglao wouldn't do anything to them.

However, they underestimated the methods and determination of the Heavenly Child Granny.

At this moment, the Heavenly Child Granny needs an opportunity to make an example of someone to establish her prestige.

If it were any other day, the Wuliang Sword Sect might have been able to quell the storm by offering more tributes.

But now is a sensitive time, and Lingjiu Palace urgently needs someone to establish its authority. The Wuliang Sword Sect is so tactless as to offer itself up. Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

According to the original plot, the matter was temporarily put on hold due to the unexpected involvement of Duan Yu and Zhong Ling.

The book does not describe in detail what fate awaits the Wuliang Sword Sect.

However, it's easy to imagine that their ending won't be good.

Of course, these things have little to do with Ling Feng.

He only thought about it because he overheard people talking about it by chance.

At this moment, Ling Feng quickly finished his meal, settled the bill, and left the restaurant to return to the inn.

Back at the inn, Ling Feng stopped overthinking to avoid causing any further trouble.

He decided to rest here for the night and head up the mountain early tomorrow morning to find the legendary Langhuan Paradise.

After all, time is of the essence, and finding our target sooner will put our minds at ease.

The next morning, as sunlight streamed down the earth, Ling Feng, iron sword in hand, strode confidently out the door.

Following the route he had learned the day before, he embarked on the winding, narrow path and headed towards the majestic Wuliang Mountain.

Ling Feng did not choose to check out of the inn's room.

Not only that, he even paid half a month's rent in one go.

The reason is simple: since he is going to participate in the plot, he will need to stay here for the next ten days or so.

During this period, Ling Feng was absolutely unwilling to compromise himself, let alone endure hardship and sleep outdoors.

Ling Feng had his own reasons for choosing this narrow path.

On the one hand, he didn't want to cause any trouble.

If we proceed along the main road leading to the Wuliang Sword Sect, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the Wuliang Sword Sect members.

At that time, he will find it difficult to explain his intentions and purpose.

On the other hand, his goal for this trip was to find the Wuliang Jade Disc hidden in the Wuliang Mountains.

If you can find a spot overlooking the Wuliang Sword Sect, you'll likely discover this mysterious jade disc.

After all, it is said that people in the Wuliang Sword Sect can witness the amazing sight of immortals dancing with swords on the jade wall, so it can be inferred that this jade wall must be quite large.

Wuliang Mountain is not a single peak, but rather part of a continuous mountain range, resembling a giant dragon coiled in the area.

Therefore, Ling Feng did not feel abrupt as he walked up the winding mountain path.

Although Wuliang Mountain is not very high, Ling Feng reached the halfway point in no time.

Standing here, through the hazy mist, one can vaguely see the Wuliang Sword Sect in the distance, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

Because the mountains are often shrouded in fog, visibility is affected, and only the general outline can be seen.

Ling Feng's purpose in coming here was not the Wuliang Sword Sect; he only needed to know its approximate location.

However, perhaps because of the fog, he did not find any trace of the Boundless Jade Disc.

At this moment, he was trying hard to recall the description of the Wuliang Jade Disc in the book.

He hoped to find the legendary Langhuan Paradise without attracting the attention of the Wuliang Sword Sect.

However, despite his best efforts to recall the descriptions of the legendary Langhuan Paradise, Ling Feng could only remember three prominent features:

One of them is a clear and deep pool of water below;

Secondly, the jade disc was actually an enormous, seemingly naturally formed stone wall;

Thirdly, this mysterious Langhuan Paradise is hidden deep beneath cliffs, and it was only because Duan Yu accidentally fell that he was able to glimpse its true face.

Ling Feng stopped and began to look around intently, hoping to find a place that matched the characteristics mentioned above.

As the saying goes, perseverance pays off. After a meticulous search, Ling Feng finally found a place in the surrounding environment that seemed to meet most of the requirements—a precipitous canyon right next to the left side of Wuliang Mountain.

However, the only drawback was that Ling Feng was unable to find any trace of the jade disc here.

However, in order to verify whether his inner speculation was accurate, Ling Feng resolutely decided to go and find out.

After all, it seems difficult to find another location in this area that can meet all of the above requirements at the same time.

Ling Feng had come up the mountain along this side of the canyon, so he was not far from the canyon at the moment. Before long, Ling Feng arrived at the edge of the canyon.

As Ling Feng approached the canyon, he still couldn't find any trace of the jade disc. Unwilling to give up, he walked a little further up the canyon. After walking two or three hundred meters, he finally saw the jade disc mentioned in the book.

It turns out that the entrance to this canyon is wider than other places. Because of Ling Feng's position, he couldn't see the jade wall from below, but from the position of the Wuliang Sword Sect, he could clearly see the stone wall.

Now that we've found the location of Langhuan Paradise, the most urgent task is to figure out how to get down there.

Ling Feng stood at the edge of the canyon and looked down, only to see a vast expanse of white mist, making it impossible to see the bottom of the valley and thus impossible to know how deep it was.

In the original story, Duan Yu survived the fall off the cliff, thanks to the protagonist's halo. However, the bottom of the cliff must have been quite deep; otherwise, Newton would probably be turning in his grave.

Ling Feng naturally wouldn't follow Duan Yu's example and jump down directly, since he knew nothing about the situation at the bottom of the cliff. If he were to die there, wouldn't that be a huge joke?

However, there are always more solutions than problems, especially since this place is ancient and has lush vegetation.

Ling Feng quickly gathered some vines in the woods, the smallest of which was as thick as a baby's arm.

He connected the vines together, but felt it wasn't secure enough, so he went to find more until it was more than a hundred meters long before he stopped.

He secured one end of the vine rope to a tree above, threw the rest off the cliff, then, holding the rope and lightly touching the rock face with his feet, leaped down into the canyon.

Although Ling Feng was not proficient in any advanced lightness skills, he had learned some second-rate lightness skills at Mantuo Manor. With the help of the rope, it was not difficult to descend to the bottom of the canyon.

He leaped down fifty or sixty meters, finally passing through the fog, and was able to see the bottom of the canyon clearly.

Seeing that the rope could reach the bottom of the canyon, Ling Feng felt a little relieved. He was really worried that the canyon was too deep. If the rope could only reach halfway up the canyon, that would be troublesome.

After descending to the bottom of the valley, Ling Feng looked around and saw that the place truly lived up to its reputation, with sheer cliffs rising thousands of feet.

Except for a dozen meters or so near the top of the canyon, the area below is all white stone walls.

Just now, because of the fog, Ling Feng was unable to see the whole view below.

After he saw the whole place, he couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature.

If someone were to accidentally fall from there, even if they survived the fall, they would likely starve to death down there.

Although there is some vegetation in this canyon, judging from the traces of erosion, there must be occasional flash floods here.

He thought to himself, "This Langhuan Paradise is so close to the Wuliang Sword Sect, yet it has remained undiscovered for so many years. It turns out that this is a forbidden place, and no one dares to venture into it lightly."

Moreover, the Wuliang Sword Sect doesn't have any real experts. Zuo Zimu's strength is at most second-rate, so it won't be easy for him to come down. Naturally, no one dares to take the risk.

This is why the blessed land of Langhuan has remained hidden until now.

As for why Wu Yazi and Li Qiushui chose to live in seclusion here back then, Ling Feng had no idea.

But he knew that what was a dead end for others was like flat ground for them.

After all, even Duan Yu, who had just learned the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique), was able to get out of here, let alone the two of them who had already mastered the Lingbo Weibu to a high level.

Ling Feng landed in the middle of the canyon. The terrain here is rugged, but fortunately the view at the bottom of the valley is wide, and the whole canyon can be seen.

In the original story, the Wuliang Sword Sect members could see immortals dancing with swords on the Wuliang Jade Wall. Ling Feng estimated that this was due to the effect of light refraction.

With several leaps through the canyon, he traversed the pile of rocks and arrived at the front of the canyon.

There was indeed a bottomless pool here, which must have been caused by the impact of the water flowing from above. In front of the pool, there was a beach about the size of a basketball court. This beach was the only relatively flat beach in the canyon.

At this point, Ling Feng suddenly realized why there were immortals dancing with swords on the legendary Boundless Jade Wall.

It is said that Wu Yazi and Li Qiushui once lived in seclusion here, and would often spar and discuss swordsmanship here. The sunlight reflected on the pool, and the pool reflected the two of them dancing with swords on the stone wall. From the perspective of the Wuliang Sword Sect, it was as if there were figures dancing with swords on the stone wall.

Of course, Ling Feng was not there to solve a case, so he didn't care about that. His primary task at the moment was to find the legendary Langhuan Paradise.

After all, this was the purpose of his long journey; everything else was secondary.

The place was only so big. Ling Feng looked around and quickly discovered something unusual on the cliff face.

The bottom of the cliff is covered with vines, but these vines are much denser than those in other places, and there are some signs of human intervention.

Aside from Wu Yazi and Li Qiushui, Ling Feng couldn't think of anyone else who would come here. Moreover, since Duan Yu was able to stumble upon the place by accident, it probably wasn't very well hidden.
