Chapter 119: The Luantian Sect’s Investigation

On the Heaven-Ascending Immortal Stairway, quite a few cultivators had already stopped in their tracks.

Their faces had beco incomparably twisted under that terrifying pressure. With their talent, being able to reach this point was already quite impressive.

Looking at the entire Heaven-Ascending Immortal Stairway, there were only a handful of people who could step onto the thousandth step. They were basically all prodigies from the various great forces.

Of course, there were only three people who left them unable to even hope to catch up. Those three were Lu Xiaoyao, Lu Qingyun, and Gu Tiansheng.

And the only ones Gu Tiansheng could not hope to catch up to were Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun.

“Damn it. Damn it! Am I really only able to stop at the three-thousand-six-hundred-and-fiftieth step?”

Gu Tiansheng felt incomparably stifled. When he looked up again at Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun, those two had already climbed to more than seven thousand steps. Moreover, they only looked slightly strained, and reaching the summit did not seem too difficult for them.

One had to know that he possessed a Divine-Grade Spiritual Root, a Divine-Grade Spiritual Root that appeared only once in ten thousand years on the entire Tiansheng Continent! How could he stop here?

Thus, he suddenly erupted with power, and his speed soared by quite a bit. However, after reaching the four-thousandth step, he could no longer advance and was suppressed to the ground by that terrifying pressure.

In the void, True Mystery Immortal King looked at this scene and sighed helplessly.

In truth, with Gu Tiansheng’s talent, he should have gone far beyond the four-thousandth step. The reason for this was that the True Mystery Immortal King had acted.

After all, he could not allow Gu Tiansheng to take first place. If he possessed Gu Tiansheng, he might end up provoking an Immortal King.

However, only after he acted did he realize that even if he had not intervened, Gu Tiansheng still would not have surpassed those two prodigies. At most, he would only have stopped at the seven-thousandth step.

On the seven-thousandth step, Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun continued climbing one after the other. It was only that their speed was clearly much slower than before.

Sotis Lu Xiaoyao was first, and sotis Lu Qingyun fell behind.

Outside, Lu Xunxian’s attention was naturally focused entirely on his son and daughter. Zhao Xiaoyi looked at the expression on Lu Xunxian’s face and actually felt that it was exactly the sa as the way her own father looked at her. She imdiately swallowed and carefully asked, “Senior, are these two prodigies your children?”

“Oh? How did you guess that?”

“From their appearances. After all, the two of them look sowhat similar to Senior. In addition, Senior’s attention has been focused on them. Moreover, Senior said earlier that you ca for the inheritance, but also did not co for the inheritance.”

“Then there is only one answer. Senior ca for soone.”

Zhao Xiaoyi made this bold guess. In that case, everything could be explained.

Hearing this, Lu Xunxian did not deny it. He waved his hand and said, “All right. Just focus on watching.”

Seeing Lu Xunxian’s attitude, Zhao Xiaoyi already knew that what she said should be true.

Senior was actually planning to use an Immortal King to temper his son and daughter. This could only be described as terrifying beyond belief.

Was he not afraid that sothing would happen to his son and daughter?

But looking at Lu Xunxian’s calm and casual appearance, it seed that everything was within his control, so Zhao Xiaoyi did not continue speaking.

Since Senior was doing this, he should have absolute confidence.

After sensing sothing, Zhao Xiaoyi turned to look at Xu Rou beside her, only to see that Xu Rou had already sat cross-legged and was actually attacking the Mid Saint King Realm.

Seeing her close friend begin cultivating, Zhao Xiaoyi did not remain idle either and began cultivating along with her.

At this mont, inside the Luantian Sect.

With a bang, all the cultivators of the Luantian Sect felt a terrifying pressure rush out from the sect’s forbidden grounds. In an instant, all disciples below the Saint Monarch Realm were suppressed by that pressure.

Even the elders at the Saint Monarch Realm had pale faces and were struggling to support themselves.

Only after quite so ti did that terrifying pressure slowly dissipate.

Everyone looked toward the forbidden grounds as though they had survived a calamity. Their hearts were incomparably curious about exactly what had happened to make the patriarch so furious.

That was right. In their eyes, they had determined that only the patriarch who had already broken through to the Mid Saint Emperor Realm could possess such terrifying power.

And the truth was exactly as they had expected.

At this mont, inside the Luantian Sect’s forbidden grounds, an old man in a gray robe sat cross-legged on the ground, his expression incomparably ugly.

Around him stood two Early Saint Emperor Realm cultivators. They were the Sect Master of the Luantian Sect, Jiang Fengyun, and the Grand Elder, Li Shunxian.

The old man was none other than the Luantian Sect’s patriarch, a Mid Saint Emperor Realm mighty expert, Jiang Nixian.

“Patriarch, all the disciples of my Luantian Sect have fallen inside the Tiannan Secret Realm. There must be sothing suspicious about this matter. I ask Patriarch to co out of seclusion and uphold justice for my Luantian Sect!”

Jiang Fengyun stood at the side and spoke to the patriarch with an ugly expression.

Although they could not enter the secret realm, they could still observe the disciples’ conditions through their Soul Lamps.

Almost in an instant, the Soul Lamps of Jiang Tiansheng and the others had gone out.

One had to know that Jiang Tiansheng still had the thods Jiang Fengyun had given him. Even a Peak Saint Monarch Realm expert could not kill him, yet he had fallen in an instant. If soone said that no one had targeted him, Jiang Fengyun would not believe it.

Therefore, he could only invite the patriarch out to uphold justice for the Luantian Sect.

Hearing this, Jiang Nixian slowly stood up, his expression incomparably gloomy.

“It seems that because this old man has not acted for many years, so people think this old man can no longer wield a blade.”

“To think soone actually dared to attack this old man’s most beloved junior. In that case, they shall die!”

As soon as his words fell, Jiang Nixian’s aura continuously surged. He actually broke through from the Mid Saint Emperor Realm to the Late Saint Emperor Realm in one go.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Fengyun and Li Shunxian’s faces were filled with excitent as they congratulated Jiang Nixian.

“Congratulations, Patriarch, on breaking through to the Late Saint Emperor Realm!”

“It was rely sothing that was bound to happen when the conditions were right.”

Jiang Nixian waved his hand, then imdiately said, “You do not need to concern yourselves with this matter anymore. This old man will personally go and guard outside the secret realm. No matter who it is, since they killed my good grandson, they must pay the price!”

As soon as his words fell, Jiang Nixian directly tore open the void before him, stepped inside, and hurried toward the Tiannan Secret Realm.

Seeing this, Jiang Fengyun and Li Shunxian could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Since the patriarch had acted, then this matter should be settled.

At present, apart from the Five Great Sacred Lands, the Three Great rchant Guilds, and Myriad Dao Academy, they believed themselves unmatched.

In the Immortal Realm.

“Do your two great forces intend to stop my Qingfeng Sect from investigating the truth?”

Before the Tiansheng Continent’s Ascension Node, the True Immortal experts of the Qingfeng Sect had been stopped by the elders of the Primordial Sect and the Ancient Wood Sect, and their expressions were extrely ugly.

After investigating for a while to no avail, Hu Pogu had planned to send two Late True Immortal Realm elders down to the Tiansheng Continent to investigate in secret. He had thought that as long as they were careful and discreet enough, nothing should happen.

Unexpectedly, before those two elders even reached the Ascension Node, they were stopped by the elders stationed at the Ascension Node by the Primordial Sect and the Ancient Wood Sect.

“Apologies. My Primordial Sect’s Sect Master has ordered that no one is allowed to descend to the lower realm. Otherwise, they will be making an enemy of my Primordial Sect!”

“My Ancient Wood Sect is the sa!”

After learning that Lu Xunxian was at least an Immortal King, the two great forces’ attitudes toward Lu Xunxian had undergone a subtle change.

In addition, Lu Xunxian’s children were the Holy Son and Holy Maiden of their forces, so naturally, they were worth the two forces paying such a great price.
