Chapter 124 Journey (2)
Wulingyuan was, as always, shrouded in countless mists and clouds.
A rugged terrain untouched by any civilization’s progress.
That place was Zhangjiajie’s Wulingyuan, also called the cradle of ancient martial arts.
Gu Yangji lifted his head.
‘It was once notorious for all sorts of barbaric training methods.’
Even now, martial artists who only brutally mastered external techniques were mocked with questions like, “Are you from Zhangjiajie?”
Having seen many such fools in his past life as a wandering swordsman, relying solely on external techniques, Gu Yangji held no fond impression of Zhangjiajie.
Thus, he asked the Sage of Ten Thousand Treasures with skepticism.
“Surely you didn’t come here to meet some stubborn barbarian?”
“A stubborn barbarian? He ranks among the top five strongest men I’ve ever seen in the martial world.”
Gu Yangji couldn’t help but be astonished by that statement.
If Wutongzi, who had lived for hundreds of years and seen countless martial artists, said so…
Gu Yangji no longer doubted the man said to be in Zhangjiajie. A small glimmer of hope even arose within him.
“Huh… So where is he?”
“The summit of Tianwufeng Peak.”
“Tianwufeng?”
The name sounded familiar, and Gu Yangji tilted his head to one side.
After a moment, a name came to mind.
“Ah! That Tianwufeng!”
“Do you know him?”
“Wei Jintian. I first saw him at the Nine Dragons Tournament and met him again at the Martial Alliance.”
Though they weren’t exactly close friends, this eased Gu Yangjie’s apprehension about the unfamiliar territory.
