Brutal Battle
Reportedly, people obtained Divine Rank cultivation methods from the halls before.
Chubby: “What a large-scale maze.”
Black bird: “It’s caught people for good before.”
Chubby: “We have a head start, then, hehe.”
“Not necessarily. It’s actually safer to be later.” Tone sly, the bird added, “Divine Rank cultivation methods are hard to obtain. Some choose their masters of their own accord. Once they’re done fighting, we can go in and throw them out.”
Xuanyuan Mu didn’t have a good impression of the bird after seeing its sly nature.
The fog cleared after an hour to reveal a jade building sitting in the air, extending up to the clouds and giving an ancient vibe. It was a scripture hall that left Yang Tian breathless. And, indeed, there were already people heading in. Hence, the bird shook his head casually. “Wait for a while a longer. I’m willing to bet there are people fighting in there at the moment. There’s no point in wasting our energy fighting with them.”
Dahu: “Brother Bird, you’re a genius…”
Yang Tian went into the jade carriage to check on Yun’er. He sighed, praying he’d find Nine Yin Divine Manual.
The others took cover in the clouds. Dozens had gone in, yet none came back out. Yang Tian smiled at a few faces he recognised. Their leader was Ancient Sacred Grounds’ first elder, Gu Ming. Next to him was the one-arm elder. The group traded comments pertaining to Ancient Sacred Grounds.
Yang Tian’s group raced to the hall after ten minutes of waiting. The interior was wide. Limbs littered the ground. Xiaoji summoned Great Void Genius, the silver boat. They sped through after fusing with the void. There was a fierce fight between hundreds of adepts far above the level of Battle Emperors raging on inside. Right above them were ten jade platforms where glowing jade slips hovered. Whenever someone tried to jump up to snag one, the jade slip would blow them away. Three fortunate souls managed to take one each. There was a hot light in the deepest section.
Yang Tian clenched his fists when he saw a bright light. “Is that the one?!”
Black Bird: “I think so. Nobody has taken it!”
Xuanuan Mu grinned. “I reckon the sealed cultivation methods are beyond belief and had to obtain.”
“I know,” responded Yang Tian, adding a nod and looking around from their hiding spot.
Lots of blood was spilt. Lots of groans were audible. And they were all for the cultivation methods.
A taotie killed a human cultivator for his jade slip and continued slaughtering more. More joined, but most retreated. There were more people than previous times.
Yang Tian watched Gu Ming the entire time due to interest in the latter’s Chaos Light. He eventually peered into his body. Wind Locking Jewel, which hovered above his lake, was almost ready to acknowledge him, which would eventually upgrade Star Scroll.
A day later, Yang Tian urged, “Let’s go, or it’ll close on us.”
Great Void Genius arrived above Gu Ming in an instant. The void opened. A hand pulled him up. The adepts announced someone joined and retreated swiftly.
Taotie: “Come out!”
Sad elders of Ancient Sacred Grounds: “First Elder…”
It was a tragic journey for Ancient Sacred Grounds thus far. They left before they died waiting.
Eight creatures locked down the void to kill the adepts within.
