Capítulo 1110: Chapter 1111: Holy Hall
Passing through the dense forest-like lightning, Lin Fei and the Human-faced Goat landed on an island of several hundred miles in circumference.
The island was extremely desolate, with withered vegetation and not a single flower in bloom; it seemed like a dead land devoid of any life force.
Yet Lin Fei saw, at the center of the island, a towering giant mountain, on whose summit emanated a faint light. Although the light was weak, in this death-like barren island, it provided a sense of light and hope.
Moreover, this faint light exuded an aura of solemn holiness.
With the help of this faint light, Lin Fei could faintly perceive the majestic temple atop the giant mountain.
“This is Bright Island, the only island on the entire Bright Continent that hasn’t sunk into the ocean, because this island was once inhabited by the Emperor of Light. The Holy Hall atop Bright Mountain remains intact due to the presence of the Emperor of Light’s Holy Power, unaffected by the Unparalleled Demon Ancestor’s destruction.”
At that moment, the Human-faced Goat gazed at the distant faintly glowing giant mountain, with a hint of old wisdom in its eyes, and spoke.
Lin Fei was astonished that a goat’s eyes could convey emotion more complex than that of humans.
He was immensely curious about how long the Human-faced Goat had existed in this dark Ancient Sea.
If the Human-faced Goat had been here since the time of the Bright Continent, then it probably had a lifespan of tens of thousands of years.
With this understanding, Lin Fei could comprehend the look of ancient wisdom in the goat’s eyes.
The Human-faced Goat stayed for a short while, then said to Lin Fei, “I will now take you to the Holy Hall, where you can cultivate well and subdue the Saint Fire within you.”
Lin Fei nodded, eager to learn what kind of place the Holy Hall inhabited by the former master of the Bright Continent was.
The Human-faced Goat led Lin Fei, wielding the Holy Ring, flying toward the Holy Hall at the center of Bright Mountain on the island.
Shush.
A dozen minutes later, Lin Fei and the Human-faced Goat landed on the summit of Bright Mountain, on a spacious plaza that could accommodate tens of thousands of people.
This plaza was paved with white stone, engraved with talismanic characters exuding an ancient aura; the talismanic text was golden, emitting a gentle glow that illuminated the entire mountain top.
Forming a veil of light, it spread a solemn and sacred atmosphere.
Lin Fei did not expect that the faint light he saw from afar, upon arriving here, would be so bright and the aura so solemn and sacred.
Being amidst it, Lin Fei felt a mystical force; although unseen and untouchable, he could sense this force as if it was protecting the colossal Bright Mountain.
Moreover, Lin Fei could distinctly feel that the light emanating from this plaza was fundamentally different from the oppressive dark force he sensed before.
Earlier, while traversing the black mist, the surrounding aura and dark force felt oppressive and heavy, yet the light on this plaza offered brightness and hope, invigorating the spirit.
Lin Fei couldn’t help but think: perhaps the outside dark force remnants belonged to that Unparalleled Demon Ancestor, while the mystical force and light on this plaza was left by the Emperor of Light’s Holy Power.
Furthermore, the Human-faced Goat also mentioned that most of the Bright Continent’s land had sunken into the sea, with Bright Island being the exception, likely due to the Emperor’s Holy Power strengthening Bright Mountain.
The Holy Hall stood at the other end of the plaza, towering up to several tens of meters high; grand and majestic, even dust could not conceal its brilliance, and the two mighty stone Qilin statues at the entrance imparted an imperial aura.
The golden-bronze doors were tightly closed, with a large stone plaque above it inscribed with the two words “Holy Hall.”
The Human-faced Goat said, “On every stone brick of this plaza, the Emperor of Light penned his scriptures; the plaza is also known as the Bright Scripture Plaza, with each scripture infused with the Emperor’s Holy Power, creating the scripture’s Holy Light, shielding the entire Bright Mountain and Holy Hall from demon fiends.”
Only then did Lin Fei realize that the magical aura he perceived was the scripture’s Holy Light left by the Emperor of Light.
Simply writing scriptures carried such strong and sacred energy; Lin Fei could imagine the monumental strength of the Emperor himself.
The Human-faced Goat led Lin Fei toward the Holy Hall, strolling upon the Bright Scripture Plaza that emitted scripture’s Holy Light; Lin Fei felt as though he was being baptized by the scripture’s Holy Light, aiding quick recovery from his heavy injuries.
Arriving at the Holy Hall’s door, the goat extended a hoof and traced a few markings on the bronze door as if writing something.
Shortly after, a silver talisman appeared on the bronze door.
The talisman emitted light and soon submerged into the bronze door before vanishing; instantly, the door groaned as it opened about a meter wide.
The Human-faced Goat then entered, and Lin Fei suddenly realized that what the goat drew earlier on the bronze door was a talismanic spell meant to open it.
Lin Fei was truly surprised that a goat could draw such a talisman.
But upon recalling that this was no ordinary goat, but one of notable background, Lin Fei was no longer astonished.
Following the goat into the Holy Hall, the door automatically closed behind them.
The first sight that greeted Lin Fei was a large courtyard, spacious enough to hold thousands of people, and within it grew more than a dozen large trees.
The difference was that these dozen trees were unlike any Lin Fei had ever seen; their trunks required four to five people to embrace, and they bore lush leaves that were all golden.
These golden leaves emitted light akin to moonlight, illuminating the entire courtyard brightly.
Furthermore, Lin Fei could sense a vast and rich Spiritual Qi emanating from the dozen golden leaf trees.
It seemed as though these trees could generate a substantial amount of Spiritual Qi.
As Lin Fei scrutinized the trees in the courtyard, the Human-faced Goat said to him, “These are Holy Spirit Trees, planted by the Emperor of Light himself when constructing the Holy Hall. The Holy Spirit Trees can absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and the essence of sun and moon, and after absorbing the Spiritual Qi essence, they transform a hundred-mile radius into a place abundant with Spiritual Qi.”
“However, the Bright Continent had long been contaminated by Demonic Qi, and relying solely on a dozen Holy Spirit Trees is insufficient to completely resolve the Demonic Qi. Thankfully, Bright Mountain fortified by the Emperor’s Holy Power remains immune to Demonic Qi corrosion, preserving these Holy Spirit Trees.”
Lin Fei heard that these trees could absorb Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and the essence of the sun and moon, and transform a hundred-mile radius into a place rich in Spiritual Qi.
He couldn’t help but think: If these dozen Holy Spirit Trees were transplanted to Huaxia, wouldn’t it create realms abundant with Spiritual Qi, ideal for cultivation Secret Realms?
However, he was just musing; Lin Fei had no intention to truly move these Holy Spirit Trees back to Huaxia; they were the Emperor’s legacy, a matter of respect he dared not disregard.
Surrounding the courtyard were numerous grand palaces.
The Human-faced Goat led Lin Fei to a pavilion with a plaque reading “Scripture Pavilion,” and said to Lin Fei, “This is the Emperor of Light’s Scripture Pavilion, which houses numerous books covering astronomy, geography, humans and ghosts, gods and immortals, elixirs, magical artifacts, Martial Dao and Saint Dao. You can peruse them aside from cultivation; I have some errands for a few days, you can find fruits in the orchard beyond the Holy Hall when hungry.”
Saying this, the Human-faced Goat didn’t wait for Lin Fei’s response, as the Holy Ring’s light illuminated, it disappeared from sight.
