“I wonder who will collect the most monster crystals? My bet's on Su Yang,” Elder Tianzun Sect started the conversation as all the Sect Elder representatives were having lunch together at the Pavilion in front of the entrance to the Dragon Demonic King's tomb Labyrinth.
“Su Yang, who is that? Isn't the strongest disciple in your sect young master Gu, who is the direct disciple of Sect Leader Tianzun?” replied the Elder of Heavenly Lotus Lake Sect.
Elder Tianzun Sect chuckled as he sipped his warm tea.
Su Yang’s existence was not yet widely known to the outside world because he came from a small Clan that had been destroyed by the Demonic Cult. However, this year's monster hunt would be an opportunity to make him known as a dark horse who surpassed the top disciples of the great Sects throughout the Tianwu Continent.
“Su Yang is a gem I found in a small clan. With just a little polishing, he grew into a Dragon. Sometimes I suspect that he is the reincarnation of the First Martial Alliance Leader,” replied the Tianzun Sect Elder, which surprised the other Sect Elders.
The basis for this suspicion was that the Demonic Cult suddenly rose after disappearing for thousands of years. In the stories of the ancients, whenever there was a disaster, a hero would be born who would lead the world to peace.
“It seems that you drink too much tea so that your brain is a little shifted, disciples who have such talent are abundant in our Peach Mountain Sect,” sneered the old woman who was an Elder from the Peach Mountain Sect.
However, the Elder Tianzun Sect remained calm and smiled in response to the taunt. “It's up to you to believe it or no- ”
Before he could finish his sentence, his eyes widened as the mountain in front of the Pavilion suddenly collapsed and disciples from various Sects rushed out of the labyrinth.
“What happened in there? Did Su Yang enter the tomb of the Dragon Demonic King?” he muttered speculatively.
However, that was impossible because Su Yang’s cultivation base was only at the Heavenly Emperor Realm, while the tomb was guarded by Seven Demons equivalent to the Eternal Realm.
The First Martial Alliance Leader had also installed an artifact that prevented someone from going to the deepest part of the labyrinth because the other function of the labyrinth was to prevent powerful Cultivators from escaping from the Tianlong Continent.
If there were Heavenly Emperor Realm Cultivators who forced their way into using the ancient Teleportation altar left by the First Martial Alliance Leader, then they would be transported to the tomb of the Dragon Demonic King. In the end, of course, it is easy to guess, the intruder will die attacked by monsters equivalent to the Heavenly Emperor Realm.
However, information about the other functions of the labyrinth was only known by the higher-ups of the great Sects, while the current generation of disciples and Cultivators many did not know this information.
“Who is that man, how can he be inside the labyrinth?” the Heavenly Lotus Lake Sect Elder shouted loudly while pointing towards the man whose hair was partially white.
The man had saved hundreds of disciples by enveloping them with his spiritual energy.
“Is he the one who destroyed the labyrinth?” replied the Peach Mountain Elder. “Even though the Martial Alliance forbids the Eternal Realm from entering the labyrinth. He must be a member of the Demonic Cult looking for a Teleportation altar to the Tianlong continent.”
Everyone knew that the Demonic Cult were followers of the Demonic Emperor who was imprisoned in the Great Fortress Mountains Artifact, Tianlong Continent. Every follower of the Demonic Cult must try to enter the Tianlong continent to free the Demonic Emperor.
Because the Demonic Emperor had been sealed since the era of the First Martial Alliance Leader, people on the Tianwu Continent believed there was no life on the Tianlong Continent. The place was an ice-covered area that was uninhabitable, moreover, records of the Tianlong continent had long been lost or the scrolls of paper that wrote about it had rotted and no one copied them as they did with martial arts scrolls.
The old woman from the Peach Mountain Sect suddenly shot towards the mysterious man.
“Don't act rashly, Elder Long Yue!” exclaimed Elder Tianzun Sect immediately after her. He was afraid that the mysterious man would hurt their disciples if they showed hostility towards the mysterious man.
Long Yue transformed into a White Dragon, the surrounding area instantly froze. Even Elder Tianzun Sect who was also an Eternal Realm felt the cold and almost froze his blood.
“High level danger detected!”
Su Yang’s Heavenly System suddenly detected danger as soon as he exited the labyrinth.
His face immediately turned pale when he saw a mountain-sized Dragon darting towards them.
“Damn it, why am I so unlucky today? Where’s the Protagonist's luck that usually always drives the story’s plot at will!” Su Yang cursed.
He was sure this misfortune was because he was near Xuan Ji. Now he hoped that the figure that could not be identified by the Heavenly System would save them.
Xuan Ji turned to Su Yang with a puzzled expression and said, “Are you a reincarnation from another world?”
However, Su Yang didn’t hear what Xuan Ji said because his gaze was focused on Long Yue who had already spewed out Ice spiritual energy.
“It turns out there is a Long Clan on this Tianwu continent,” muttered Xuan Ji. “Maybe my distant relatives are here too.” Because the people who were on the Tianlong continent were originally from the Tianwu Continent.
Xuan Ji snapped his fingers, a large amount of Wind spiritual energy then formed a turtle shell protecting everyone.
He used one of Yan Chung’s martial arts techniques to deflect Long Yue’s attack.
“What a cold greeting, have I ever broken a promise to you, miss?” Xuan Ji teased Long Yue.
He didn’t know that the woman he was teasing was an old woman who already had dozens of grandchildren and an Elder of a great Sect.
The White Dragon Avatar suddenly frowned. It seemed Long Yue was surprised to hear the seduction of the strange man who appeared out of nowhere.
Elder Tianzun Sect tried to hold back his laughter, but suddenly he realized that the disciples from his Sect were around Xuan Ji. He had to stop Long Yue from attacking the mysterious man from hurting his disciples.
“Calm down, Elder Long Yue. If you act recklessly, our disciples might be killed by him.” Elder Tianzun Sect sent a telepathic voice to Long Yue.
Xuan Ji suddenly let out a long sigh after observing his surroundings. “It seems my disciple is not here.”
“Disciple?”
Long Yue, Elder Tianzun Sect, Su Yang and the others were surprised to hear this. They didn’t expect the mysterious man to be a Sect Elder.
“It seems it’s time to part, hopefully we will meet again in the future.” Xuan Ji winked at the White Dragon Avatar and one blink later a gentle breeze blew.
“Eh, where is he?” Su Yang was surprised.
Hua Yuerong was also taken aback because she didn’t feel Xuan Ji’s movements.
“Who is senior Ji really? Didn’t he say before that he was a Wandering Doctor, why did he suddenly say he was looking for his disciple?” Hua Yuerong whispered.
Su Yang shook his head, he felt that Xuan Ji's identity must be unusual. Even the Heavenly System couldn’t identify him. However, he also breathed a sigh of relief because Xuan Ji was moving away from him, meaning that his luck would not be taken away by Xuan Ji anymore.
