Chapter 398

    After hearing Bradley’s words, everyone present fell silent.


    Immortals!


    Were there really immortals in the world?


    Not just the group, even Nash felt puzzled.


    He had not witnessed his master’s ascension, and his master rarely mentioned immortals.


    What did his master mean by ascension? Was it just a euphemism for death, or did it mean moving to


    another world?


    In the Path, death was referred to as emergence, which many associated with actual ascension to


    heaven.


    Regaining hisposure, Finn asked in surprise, “How did they determine that it was an Immortal


    Tomb?”


    “Elixirs! Immortal techniques! Undposed bodies! Revived sacrificial followers!”

    Bradley answered with narrowed eyes.


    That year, he was in the prime of his youth.


    Even after decades, he still vividly remembered everything.


    Finn asked with palpable excitement, “Does the tomb still exist? Can we visit the Miliard Flora Valley?”


    The thought of an Immortal Tomb was thrilling!


    If they found some elixirs, would their cultivation not skyrocket?


    “The ancient tomb had self-destruction mechanisms. Over 90 ventured there, including two Mystique


    Loyalty Realm and eight Profound Reality Realm members from the Youngs.


    “Only eight individuals without any cultivation skills managed to escape. In front of those revived


    sacrificial followers, even the Profound Reality Realm and Mystique Loyalty Realm cultivators seemed


    like mere ants.”


    Bradley recounted as his hand trembled slightly whit


    Suddenly, there were knocks on the door.


    Bradley gestured to Nico, who quickly opened the door.


    holding his pipe.


    Several people, wearing aprons, stood there, each dragging two hefty sacks.


    “What are these?”


    Nico asked, puzzled.


    “Good stuff…”


    One of them replied with a smile, and then, with theirpanions, they turned to leave,


    Nico peeked into the sacks to find tools like shovels and pickaxes.


    Tools for tomb raiding, perhaps?


    Derek and Finn helped drag the bags inside.


    Bradley proceeded to empty them.


    They contained tools like windmill de shovels, telescopic rods, grappling hook, wide- mouthed


    shovel, thick fishings, gas masks, rice, donkey hooves, dog blood, and more.


    Lastly, Bradley pulled out a map, apass, and two satellite phones.


    “Now this is the good stuff.”


    Bradley held the map with a smile on his face.


    Nico muttered, “Didn’t you go there once? Don’t you remember the route?”


    Bradley exined, “What if that route doesn’t work?”


    One had to be fully prepared when trekking the mountains.


    The terrain of the Nine Absolute Mountain Range was steep. It would be difficult to get out if they were


    to get lost.


    Bradley spread the map over the coffee table, which was filled with detailed annotations of mountain


    peaks and water sources.


    Taking a red pen from his hat, he marked a spot near the name of Madam Lunaris’ homestead, saying,


    “We’re currently here… and the Tomb of the King of Medicine is beneath the main peak of the Seven


    Peaks Mountain.”


    While saying this, Bradley drew a straight line to the central peak of the Seven Peaks Mountain. “This


    route is the shortcut we’ve nned. It’ll roughly take about four days if we travel day and night.”


    “Four days of non-stop traveling?


    “Why don’t I rent a few helicopters to fly us in?”


    Melody could not imagine herself trekking through the mountains for four days.


    Moreover, thinking about Heidi, a girl in her mid-teens, made her worry. It might exhaust the poor girl!


    Bradley, pointing to some red crosses on the map, exined, “Within the Nine Absolute Mountain


    Range, there are restricted areas established by the government, making them no- fly zones.


    “No aircraft can approach, and there are areas with maic disturbances. Over the past 30 years,


    several fighter jets have crashed within these mountains.”


    Melody sighed in resignation.


    She began to regret her decision to follow Nash to Xanthalos.


    Sensing Melody’s thoughts, Nash said with a yful smile, “Why don’t you go back? Hera’s probably


    returned to Jonford today. You can ensure her safety back home.”
