679: Chapter 679 So glib! You're all talk!

"That fleeting premonition of danger just now was definitely not my imagination!"

"I need to be even more careful from now on."

Su Yun looked up at the entrance of the Ancient Road to Immortality ten miles away, a look of solemnity flashing across his face.

As it turned out,

his premonitions were very accurate.

For instance, he had sensed the crises he encountered in the Western Middle Domain and the hall deep within the Xu Family Ancestral Land beforehand.

Therefore, this Ancient Road to Immortality was likely even more dangerous than he had imagined!

It seemed he would encounter quite a few crises this time!

As for what those crises specifically were?

Thinking of this, a glint flashed in Su Yun's eyes as he looked around, quickly checking the life scripts of the powerhouses from various major factions.

To his disappointment, however,

he didn't find much.

After all, the life scripts of supporting characters and bystanders weren't as detailed as those of a protagonist.

They only recorded two scenarios in a scattered manner.

Either these powerhouses failed to pass the trials of the Ancient Road to Immortality and were teleported out,

or they died during the trials, without even getting the chance to leave the Ancient Road to Immortality.

At that moment, Meng Shuyan's clear and melodious voice suddenly rang in his ear, carrying a hint of bashfulness.

"Yun'er... can you... let go now? We've already landed safely..."

"Ahem, Revered Master, I'm sorry! I forgot for a moment!"

Hearing this, Su Yun smiled and withdrew his hand from her shapely and slender waist.

"By the way, Revered Master, you aren't hurt, are you?"

"Yun'er~ are you treating your Revered Master like a weak woman? Don't forget! My cultivation is higher than yours! How could I possibly be hurt?"

Meng Shuyan blinked, then gave a sweet smile and spoke softly.

As she spoke, she extended a slender finger and lightly poked Su Yun's chest.

"That's true. Revered Master is the strongest, most beautiful, and gentlest Fairy in the Haomiao Realm. This little mishap naturally wouldn't trouble you!"

Su Yun nodded and smiled in agreement.

"Glib-tongued! You're the only one who can talk like that~ Is your Revered Master really that good?"

Hearing this, Meng Shuyan's beautiful eyes flickered, and her red lips curled up.

"Of course. Revered Master has too many virtues; I wouldn't be able to finish listing them even if I talked for a day and a night~"

Su Yun said with a beaming smile and without the slightest hesitation.

He really wasn't lying; after all, his Revered Master was just that wonderful!

"A day and a night? Don't be so dramatic~"

Meng Shuyan's face flushed, and she spoke with a hint of embarrassment.

Then, she turned around and walked toward the entrance of the Ancient Road to Immortality with light steps.

"Alright, alright... enough talk. Yun'er, let's hurry and set off! Otherwise, the Opportunity for Immortal Ascension within the Ancient Road to Immortality will be taken by someone else~"

"I know, but Revered Master, you forgot one thing!"

A smile curled on Su Yun's lips as he took two steps forward to catch up and walk side by side with her.

"Hmm? What is it?" Meng Shuyan turned her head and asked.

Su Yun didn't answer but took action instead, reaching out to take her delicate hand once more.

He did this not just to prevent getting separated from Meng Shuyan on the Ancient Road to Immortality,

but also because her hand felt absolutely wonderful to hold!

It was as soft as if it had no bones and incredibly smooth.

It was hard to let go.

Once he held it, he didn't really want to release it.

Seeing this, the corners of Meng Shuyan's lips tilted up, and her beautiful eyes flickered as she let him hold her hand.

She also squeezed Su Yun's hand slightly in return, a faint sense of joy welling up in her heart.

Then, the two of them set off, walking step by step toward the entrance of the Ancient Road to Immortality.

The Taixuan Elders followed closely behind them.

Meanwhile, the powerhouses from other major factions who had fallen to the ground also stood up one after another and headed toward the entrance of the Ancient Road to Immortality.

The closer they got to the Ancient Road to Immortality, the stronger the surrounding pressure became.

Walking gradually became more difficult for everyone.

Along the way, Su Yun vigilantly observed his surroundings to guard against any sudden changes like the one before.

But other than the pressure slowly intensifying,

he didn't discover anything.

In this manner, Su Yun's group arrived near the entrance of the Ancient Road to Immortality without incident.

"We're finally here!" Su Yun looked at the entrance to the ancient road, which was emitting a hazy glow. Just as he was about to continue, he suddenly remembered something and paused.

He then turned his head and looked at the Taixuan Elders following behind him, his tone gentle.

"Elders, next we will enter the Ancient Road to Immortality to explore.

It is rumored to be full of dangers and numerous trials.

I may not be able to ensure everyone's safety!"

"What I want to say is that you must act within your capabilities while exploring the Ancient Road to Immortality!

If you encounter an insurmountable crisis, remember to find a way to escape in time!

After all, while opportunities are important, life is even more so!

If you die, no Opportunity will be of any use!"

He didn't want to return from the Ancient Road to Immortality only to find that all these Taixuan Elders had perished.

Wouldn't he, as the Taixuan Holy Master, become a leader with no followers then?

Besides that reason,

his relationship with these Taixuan Elders was usually quite good.

So, for both public and private reasons, he didn't want anything to happen to them!

Hearing this, the Elders felt a warmth in their hearts. Moved to tears of gratitude, they looked at Su Yun with respectful expressions.

The Holy Revered Master's words couldn't help but remind them of the advice their Revered Masters or Elders gave them before every exploration of a Secret Realm.

They hadn't heard such words since they became powerful figures in their own right.

It truly had been a long time!

The Elders bowed slightly, cupped their hands, and said in unison:

"The Holy Revered Master's instructions! We will surely keep them in mind!"

"As long as you understand!"

Su Yun nodded slightly, turned back, and continued walking forward.

But he had only taken a few steps when a loud boom suddenly came from ahead.

The nearby ground shook violently several times in an instant.

Immediately after, a dark figure flew rapidly from the front as if breaking through space, crashing directly into a boulder a hundred zhang away before instantly exploding.

Boom—!

Violent Power of Law surged in all directions, as if capable of swallowing everything.

It blasted a massive crater several thousand zhang wide right where it hit.

"Hmm? What happened?"

Seeing this, Su Yun quickly looked back, a look of surprise flashing across his face. "Isn't that the Sky Demon Daoist?"

The Sky Demon Daoist had been charging at the very front just now.

How did he get sent flying all of a sudden?

What exactly happened?

"Yun'er, I saw just now that the Sky Demon Daoist seemed to be sent flying by a white light emitted from the entrance of the Ancient Road to Immortality!"

"But what's strange is that the demonic cultivators he brought weren't sent flying; instead, they entered the Ancient Road to Immortality directly without any obstruction!"

Meng Shuyan's brows knitted slightly as she looked at Su Yun, her eyes filled with confusion.
