59: A mysterious omen

Led by the Grand Elder and the Third Elder, along with three Elders from Doujian Peak and three Elders from Mingjing Peak, they rode the wind and stood in the air, overlooking the surroundings.

Not far from these Elders, there were also more than ten Disciples who didn't look old, also standing in mid-air. Their Aura was as deep as the sea, completely incomparable to ordinary Disciples.

Even the outstanding Disciples in the Xuan Fa Realm who seemed like they could take the final step at any moment to form a Dao Embryo felt insignificant in front of these people.

"Senior Brother Dong, who are those few?" Lu Chen asked Dong Cungang beside him in a low voice via telepathic transmission.

He was a Dongming Sect Disciple, so why didn't he recognize any of these impressive people?

His understanding of the Sect was really lacking!

"Those are the True Disciples of the Peak Lords from the six major peaks, existences who have already formed a Dao Embryo. Look at the three in the middle, it is said that they are about to break into the Yin Spirit Realm, and will soon become True Disciples, ranking alongside Inner Sect Elders. They are almost the most formidable existences among the Disciples," Dong Cungang quietly transmitted to Lu Chen to explain.

Moreover, Lu Chen clearly heard an undisguised envy and awe in Dong Cungang's tone.

'As expected, the existences who can stand in mid-air with those Elders are all far stronger than ordinary Disciples.' Lu Chen nodded in realization.

He then curiously transmitted, "How long have they cultivated to reach this point?"

Dong Cungang said, "Roughly around three to four hundred years." He couldn't help but glance at Lu Chen: "If you continue to cultivate and break through at this speed, even the True Disciples of those Elders will have to stand behind you."

Lu Chen quickly waved his hand, "Senior Brother Dong, please don't overpraise this Junior Brother."

Although I do have this thought, it's not right for you to say it out loud. Isn't that becoming arrogant? Low-key, low-key!

"Junior Brother Lu, are you really not coming with us? The Ancient Demon Remnant Tomb is not without danger, it's always safer with more people!" Dong Cungang was still unwilling to give up and asked again.

Lu Chen smiled, "Senior Brother Dong's good intentions, this Junior Brother also understands."

He stopped there, but the meaning in his words was already very clear.

To be honest, Lu Chen now had twelve Golden Armor Dao Soldiers, and his own strength had also made significant progress in the past half month. After refining a 'Qing Yang Pill', he was already close to breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Realm Great Perfection.

It is estimated that in about another month, he can start preparing to impact the Penetrating Aperture Realm.

His cultivation speed was extremely astonishing, otherwise, Dong Cungang wouldn't have said that if he continued, even the True Disciples of those Elders would have to stand behind Lu Chen.

Compared to other Disciples who often cultivated for seventy to eighty years, a hundred years, or even several hundred years, Lu Chen's cultivation time of less than a year was truly outrageously unbelievable.

The key point is that up until now, there have been no signs of Lu Chen encountering a Bottleneck and getting stuck. Isn't that infuriating?

Dong Cungang was helpless but said no more!

From the battle between Lu Chen and Fan Sheng earlier, he saw that Lu Chen's Puppet technique seemed to have made another Breakthrough. Previously, Lu Chen's Dao Soldier didn't have the ability to kill a Xuan Fa Realm cultivator alone, but in the battle with Fan Sheng, that dark golden Golden Armor Dao Soldier had truly used the Earthly Fiend Dragon Slaying Art to severely injure Fan Sheng.

Earthly Fiend Dragon Slaying Art!

This was a powerful Spell that even many Body Refinement Xuan Fa Realm fellow Disciples found difficult to cultivate and master, but Lu Chen's Puppet knew it!

"Hmm? Is that guy glaring at me?" Lu Chen felt something and suddenly turned his head, just in time to see Li Jinyi at the very front of the crowd, retracting his gaze.

If nothing unexpected happened, Li Jinyi was just looking at him!

'He injured his subordinate, so he's not convinced?'

'Does he want to cause trouble for me after entering the Ancient Demon Remnant Tomb?'

Lu Chen's thoughts raced, and he kept an eye on Li Jinyi. This guy would likely still cause him trouble. If they met later in the Ancient Demon Remnant Tomb, he would strike first and directly beat him half to death.

He thought he was stronger than Fan Sheng, but little did he know, when fighting Fan Sheng, Lu Chen only used one Golden Armor Dao Soldier. If all twelve Golden Armor Dao Soldiers were unleashed, with each delivering a punch, Fan Sheng wouldn't even leave a trace. What was Li Jinyi compared to that?

If he dared to come, Lu Chen dared to fight.

"Are everyone present?" In the air, the Peak Lord of Mingjing Peak, the Grand Elder, asked.

A deacon below respectfully replied, "Out of seventy-six thousand Inner Sect Disciples, the thirty thousand Disciples who could come are all here."

In a large Sect like Dongming Sect, Inner Sect Disciples are considered the backbone of the Sect, so it's impossible for all of them to leave. The vast majority of Inner Sect Disciples who have lost their potential and cannot advance further are either stationed outside or need to remain in the Sect. Some things always require people to do them. To have thirty thousand Disciples enter the Ancient Demon Remnant Tomb together is already an extremely large number.

Furthermore, in the other areas of Qing Province and Yuan Province, where the Dongming Sect gates are overseen by True Disciples, there will also be Disciples coming, and their numbers are also not small.

"Since the Disciples who should be here have arrived, then let's set off for the Ancient Demon Remnant Tomb!"

The Grand Elder gave the order, and immediately the Elders raised their hands and threw out one flying ship after another, a total of three ships. As soon as the flying ships entered the air, they suddenly expanded, instantly blocking out the sky and sun, becoming unimaginably large.

"All Disciples, board the ship." The deacon at the front spoke, arranging for the Disciples to board the flying ships in an orderly manner.

'Traveling to the Ancient Demon Remnant Tomb by flying ship?' Lu Chen frowned.

Why wasn't it like last time when all the Disciples were put into the Refining Demon Pot? Wouldn't that be more convenient?

Something is wrong!

Ten thousand things are wrong!

Lu Chen keenly sensed that something was amiss. The big shots of the Sect might be up to something again.

Of course, it's also possible that for such large-scale movements of the Sect, they always travel by flying ship.

"Senior Brother Dong, in the past, did we also use flying ships to travel to the Ancient Demon Remnant Tomb?" Lu Chen couldn't help but ask Dong Cungang beside him.

"Naturally. The Inner Sect Disciples are almost all mobilized, which also serves to display our strength to the smaller Sects and can deter them to make them behave," Dong Cungang replied.

'Have we always traveled by flying ship?' Lu Chen still felt that something was not right.

His intuition had always been very accurate, almost never wrong.

Without asking further, Lu Chen followed the Doujian Peak Disciples onto the flying ship on the left, which was overseen by the Third Elder and his two True Disciples.

Before long, all thirty thousand Inner Sect Disciples had boarded the flying ships. Immediately, the flying ships broke through the air, disappeared below the clouds, and headed towards the North of Ye Province.

The Ancient Demon Remnant Tomb is located deep within the 'Ancient Lang Mountain Range' in the northernmost part of Ye Province, less than a hundred thousand li away. At the speed of those Elders, it would only take a few hours to arrive.

But the flying ships were not very fast, estimated to take about ten hours. Calculated this way, it was actually quite fast, traveling five thousand li per hour.

Time passed, but Lu Chen, sitting on the flying ship, felt more and more that something was about to happen.

'It's a pity this is in the sky, I can't escape underground!' Lu Chen felt quite regretful.

Otherwise, he would definitely go underground to hide his figure first. Lu Chen never doubted his intuition.

Deep within the clouds, there was no trace to be seen.

The person wearing the Green Fox mask stood there, and beside him were people wearing Kirin masks, Peacock masks, and Azure Dragon masks, totaling more than ten.

Among them, there were two wearing dragon-shaped masks.

"The people from Dongming Sect are almost here!"
