Chapter 905: Chapter 316: Suitable for All Ages (Part 2)
The Wangchuan Immortal City, primarily composed of white and green hues, exudes a calm atmosphere with passersby courteously nodding to each other, their faces adorned with smiles.
Sun Lingtong’s goal was quite clear— the City Lord’s Mansion.
He slipped into the alleys, gradually showcasing the essence of a distinguished disciple of the Bukong Sect, stealthily advancing until he reached the City Lord’s Mansion, where he found the entrance tightly shut, with the prohibition upon the door pulsing intensely, while outside the towering walls, squads of Yin Soldiers patrolled ceaselessly.
Sun Lingtong deployed a Magic Artifact, probing cautiously, imdiately perceiving the secrets of Divine Sense and the operation of a Detection Array.
“The previous Demon Cultivator was too brazen, barging into the city, triggering a full-scale alert. Alas…”
“The standards of this City Lord’s Mansion are too high. I’m rely at the Foundation Establishnt level; how can I sneak in?”
While Sun Lingtong was feeling stumped, a carriage ca speeding toward him.
The coachman snapped the whip, keeping up the high speed while shouting, “Open the gates quickly, my master has urgent business to tend to at once!”
The guards instantly raised their weapons, but in the next mont, the Array outside the City Lord’s Mansion activated on its own.
A white light flashed from the carriage, emanating the aura of the Lord of Wangchuan.
“Ah, it’s a direct order from the Lord himself!”
“Quick, open the gate.”
“Clear the path!”
The gatekeepers’ expressions changed dramatically, and they imdiately complied.
“A good opportunity!” Witnessing this, Sun Lingtong’s eyes widened, gleaming with excitent.
Even though he knew this action was dangerously reckless, Sun Lingtong did not hesitate; in this mont, he bet his life!
He used a Stealing Technique to hide himself as much as possible, and as the carriage passed, utilized the shadows in the corner to roll forward and climb onto the undercarriage.
The wheels were spinning, and the carriage dashed straight through the gates, charging into the City Lord’s Mansion.
“I’m in!” Sun Lingtong clung tightly to the undercarriage, feeling exhilarated, “Getting into the City Lord’s Mansion wasn’t so difficult after all.”
“Hahaha!”
“This is truly thrilling.”
Sun Lingtong’s eyes radiated light, his mouth watering, his entire body tingled with excitent.
The carriage wound its way through the City Lord’s Mansion, seemingly familiar with the roads. Nurous guards and attendants along the path hurriedly stepped aside.
Woo! The coachman finally pulled hard on the reins, causing the four fine horses to rear up. Consequently, the carriage ca to an abrupt halt.
A cultivator sprang out of the carriage, his expression anxious, muttering urgently to himself: “Hurry, hurry, hurry!”
He ran to the entrance, performing a Finger Technique for quite a while before finally succeeding in opening the door.
By this ti, the coachman had cald the horses and began checking the condition of the carriage.
Once the door opened, the cultivator barged in without looking back, casually shutting the door behind him.
“Since there’s such a complicated process just to open the door, this room must be a crucial area within the City Lord’s Mansion!” Sun Lingtong mused to himself.
The two doors swiftly closed, leaving only a person-sized gap.
Sun Lingtong had already hidden himself in the bushes by the entrance, at this mont he leaped silently into the room, as if threading a needle, barely making it through without a sound.
The doors closed with a thud.
The cultivator hurried forward, and Sun Lingtong followed close behind.
Inside the room stood rows of bookshelves, filled with Jade Slips.
“Could this be the Cultivation Technique Library?” Sun Lingtong’s interest waned slightly.
He and Ning Zhuo lacked excellent Cultivation Techniques.
“Even if we sold it, it would fetch a decent price,” Sun Lingtong consoled himself.
“Here, here. Yes, this is the one!” The cultivator, sweating profusely, searched the shelves back and forth, quickly finding his target, overjoyed, he reached out to grab it.
“Who’s there?!” In the next mont, he suddenly turned around, spotting Sun Lingtong at the corner.
In an instant, Sun Lingtong’s hair stood on end, alarm bells rang in his heart, feeling the threat of imminent crisis.
This cultivator seed unremarkable, but he had restrained his aura to the extre. When he made his move, shockingly he was at Nascent Soul level!
Thud.
The cultivator was just about to make a move when he was ambushed, fainting on the spot.
Sun Lingtong, having returned from the brink of death, was so overwheld by the sudden turns of events that he was left gasping for breath, montarily stunned, his eyes wide open.
An elderly man appeared, smiling at Sun Lingtong, “Kid, why are you staring at ? I’m your savior after all.”
The old man previously encountered at the Forgetful Crossing had unexpectedly appeared again, just in ti to save Sun Lingtong.
Sun Lingtong ca to his senses but stepped back a few steps, wary: “Senior, it was clear that you used to draw the target’s attention and then took advantage when they least expected it to knock them out.”
“And at the city gate, you used to pass the Evil Mirror’s scrutiny smoothly.”
“At first, it started at Forgetful Crossing. While you helped , you also took the opportunity to praise Yun Xiao and Yue Yi, gaining their favor, and were the first to board the Empty Return Raft!”
“Were you helping or using ?”
The older man laughed, “The kid is quite vigilant, worthy of being a junior of my Bukong Sect.”
Sun Lingtong was surprised, “Senior, you…”
The old man said nothing, his hands continuously performing a few of Bukong Sect’s Stealing Techniques, including signature moves and secret techniques.
He used the simplest thod to prove his identity.
The old man continued: “I am indeed from the Bukong Sect, called Zeng Jide, the elder of your elders. Kid, you’re exceptionally bold, hundreds of tis bolder than I ever was!”
“You don’t know anything, yet barged into the Wangchuan Immortal City… Tsk tsk, it’s simply courting death!”
“I’ve been protecting you in secret, especially during your infiltration by attaching to the undercarriage into the City Lord’s Mansion. Do you think that you could have gotten through just by your own ans?”
Sun Lingtong hastily bowed in thanks: “Master Zeng, it turns out you’re one of us. You saved my life; this life-saving grace is engraved in my heart.”
Light dawned on him, and he realized this was why Buddhist Doctor ng Yaoyin had advised him to go with the flow—there was actually a sect elder covertly assisting him!
Sun Lingtong imdiately changed his expression, rushing over to Zeng Jide, directly getting down on his knees to pay respects.
Zeng Jide, though long deceased, hadn’t lost his roguish nature, still relishing in thievery. His stealing style was very high-profile, sending out notices in advance to the targets to tighten their defenses, artificially increasing the challenge.
Zeng Jide’s stealing techniques were incredible, always relishing a challenge.
Upon discovering Sun Lingtong’s Bukong Sect identity, he genuinely began to favor this sect junior from the bottom of his heart.
“This young fellow is even bolder than I am! What a find, truly extraordinary.”
“His mastering of stealing techniques is profound; though they seem like sect Youthful Emperor’s Techniques, his physical and soul foundation is incredibly substantial. Such a solid base built at such a young age, excellent, truly excellent!”
Sun Lingtong mainly cultivated the Upper Dantian, but his body benefitted from the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat, and his soul foundation was even stronger, reaching the level of a million Human Soul.
The bountiful accumulation of his soul was entirely reliant on the Heavenly Gifted Talisman.
This Talisman was obtained from Luo Si, arranged by Grey Bone Elder as a token for a savior. After Ning Zhuo learned of this, he proactively rendered the Heavenly Gifted Talisman for Sun Lingtong’s usage, himself wielding four Nascent Soul level Magic Treasures, had earlier elevated his soul to the level of a million Human Soul.
“eting here is fate. Little one, I shall guide you for a bit. When you return to the Mortal World, rember to ntion my good deeds frequently,” Zeng Jide stroked his beard and said.
Clearly, he was quite pleased with airing his prowess in public.
Sun Lingtong queried: “Senior, why did you co to the Wangchuan Immortal City, and what do you intend to do?”
Zeng Jide then narrated his previous announcent to the Lord of Wangchuan about his intent to steal treasures.
Sun Lingtong imdiately gave a thumbs up, praising Zeng Jide’s penchant for thievery.
This touched on Zeng Jide’s most prideful point, making this old sect elder laugh heartily, subjecting Sun Lingtong to a flurry of questioning.
Sun Lingtong responded with half-truths, particularly emphasizing his interest in thievery and pursuit of excitent, which delighted Zeng Jide even more.
“Marvelous, marvelous!”
“No wonder you so enchanted .”
“This ti, I’ll take you to cause a big ruckus in Wangchuan Immortal City, and together, we’ll make our nas known across the Netherworld, hahaha!”
A series of conversations brought them significantly closer.
Sun Lingtong went over to the unconscious cultivator and took the Jade Slip from the latter’s hand. Curious, he injected his Divine Sense into it, imdiately raising an eyebrow in surprise: “Oh? It’s Luo Si’s dossier!”
