313: Chapter 310: Searching for the unusual rising person
Zhao Yuanlang and Lin Lang both had gloomy eyes, staring with murderous intent at the old man from Haoyue Sect and the ghost-faced man from Hongdao Sect.
The two had been fighting for a long time, their power was largely depleted, and their combat strength had been reduced by at least thirty percent.
However, they showed no fear. The Third Elder of Haoyue Sect said in a chilling tone, “Zhao Yuanlang, you merely killed a few servants back then, your crime wasn't that serious. But if you attack me, you will embark on a path of no return!”
Zhao Yuanlang was disdainful. “Killing one is killing, killing a hundred is also killing! Besides, if I kill all of you now, who will know what happened here?”
The Third Elder of Haoyue Sect's face turned ashen. “How could you become so brutal? Are you going to fall into the Demonic Path?”
The Cultivator from Hongdao Sect nearby brightened at these words. “Hehehe, Zhao Yuanlang, this Seat sees great potential in you. If you join Hongdao Sect, this Seat can join forces with you to slay this old geezer!”
The Third Elder of Haoyue Sect was furious and cursed, “Zhao Yuanlang! Don't forget you were just an abandoned infant, and Haoyue Sect raised you. You were sent to be a servant because you lacked Aptitude. Now you repay kindness with enmity like this, aren't you afraid of Heavenly Dao's retribution?”
Zhao Yuanlang's face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot. That time as a servant was his most humiliating and unwilling to recall period. This old fellow actually dared to bring it up; he truly had the audacity of a dog!
“That guy from Hongdao Sect, if you help me kill this old geezer, then perhaps I can consider joining Hongdao Sect!”
The Cultivator from Hongdao Sect's eyes immediately lit up. What he wanted most now was to kill this old man and seize the Sacred Dao Scripture. As for other matters, they could wait until after the fight.
He stared at Zhao Yuanlang, a little troubled. “I'm evenly matched with him right now; it's hard to gain the upper hand. Please lend me a hand!”
Zhao Yuanlang nodded, waiting for an Opportunity on the side. The two individuals, each with their own intentions, now had a common goal, seemingly uniting.
The cat-eared girl quickly followed. “Brother Yuanlang, I'll help you!”
The old man from Haoyue Sect's face was ashen. He never expected to end up in such a predicament.
He subtly glanced into the distance, where a Disciple of Haoyue Sect had already quietly escaped a considerable distance.
His gaze was clearly hidden, but it was still discovered by Zhao Yuanlang. His sharp eyes flickered, and he was about to give chase.
The Third Elder of Haoyue Sect roared, “Little beast, don't run!”
He chased after him, spiritual Qi suddenly surging within him, a fierce and profound energy erupting, forcing Zhao Yuanlang, who intended to pursue, to retreat.
“Old geezer, since you want to die, then I'll grant your wish!”
He saw that he was about to catch up to that Cultivator and turned to attack the Third Elder instead.
The battle in the valley lasted for several hours before finally subsiding, but within Haoyue Sect, thousands of miles away, it was anything but calm.
Inside the Sect's main hall, a young man dressed in brocade robes with a noble demeanor stood with his hands behind his back. His stern face exuded an intimidating aura without needing to show anger, and his entire being radiated a profound pressure.
His cold gaze slowly swept over everyone, causing the high-ranking members of Haoyue Sect to tremble with fear.
The person who arrived was Long Tai!
Long Tai slowly walked to a chair brought by a Cultivator of Haoyue Sect and said indifferently, “Everyone, I have come to this Lower Realm on the orders of the Dao Child of Qiankun Dao Sect to search for a person. I hope you will all lend your full support and diligently work for this Seat. During this time, there will be benefits in terms of Cultivation Techniques and Opportunities!”
Everyone's expressions immediately relaxed. They had initially thought the other party was here to cause trouble, but now it seemed he merely wanted to use Haoyue Sect…
Sect Master Chen Zhou cautiously spoke, “Senior, may I ask what you need us to do for you?”
He had already sensed that the other party's cultivation was unfathomable, completely beyond his ability to contend with. It was better to ask what kind of help was needed first. As for Cultivation Techniques and Opportunities, they were only useful if one was alive to use them!
Long Tai saw how cooperative these people were and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
“I'm looking for Cultivators who were originally of extremely low status, like dogs, and then suddenly gained some Opportunity, leading to a surge in their cultivation, or who can always use strange methods to defeat the strong with the weak, shocking all sides!”
“This scope is very broad. You just need to investigate secretly. If you find anything, contact this Seat! Here are three Mind-Cultivation Techniques, enough to allow Cultivators in your Sect with strong enough Aptitude to Cultivate to the Void Refining Realm. Take them!”
Long Tai's immediate offering of three Mind-Cultivation Techniques capable of Cultivating to the Void Refining Realm shocked everyone. The entire Haoyue Sect hall was silent.
A moment later, it suddenly became noisy. Sect Master Chen Zhou tremblingly took the Mind-Cultivation Techniques and carefully examined them for a while. The shock in his eyes grew more intense, and his lips began to tremble.
This was an Opportunity for Haoyue Sect to soar, perhaps even to break out of this barren land!
He also passed the Mind-Cultivation Techniques to the Elders below, and those Elders were also full of pleasant surprises and excitement after reading them.
Long Tai spoke at the opportune moment, “There are more Opportunities than these. I hope you won't disappoint this Seat!”
The high-ranking members of Haoyue Sect finally came to their senses and repeatedly promised that they would definitely find that person!
After they guaranteed, they immediately began to investigate and inquire.
Long Tai was also treated as a distinguished guest, even invited to become the founding Old Ancestor of Haoyue Sect, as Haoyue Sect was essentially reborn at this moment.
Long Tai repeatedly refused. “No, I am merely a servant of my Dao Child! How can I be qualified to establish a Sect!”
Under Long Tai's stern reprimand, the people of Haoyue Sect all shut their mouths and dared not mention it again.
At the same time, they were also filled with fear and longing for the master Long Tai spoke of.
Someone like Long Tai could only be his servant, so how powerful must his true self be!
A few days later, some lists were sent back to Long Tai, and after Long Tai investigated them, he forwarded them to Gu Shenggo, but all of them were rejected by Gu Shenggo.
Gu Shenggo directly used Heavenly Dao's inspection to pinpoint and investigate those Cultivators. None of them had a System; they had only gained some minor Opportunities.
As Haoyue Sect continued its investigations, running around, news from the Qixia Mountain Valley Secret Realm also came back. Of all the Cultivators from Haoyue Sect who went, only one returned, and even an Elder had died in battle.
What was most unacceptable to them was that the cause of all this tragedy was a small servant from Haoyue Sect back then.
The entire Haoyue Sect felt incredibly humiliated and immediately prepared for revenge, to hunt down that servant. While they were discussing, they were surprised to find that this small servant seemed to perfectly match the person they were looking for, having suddenly risen, defeated the strong with the weak, and accomplished many things they could not imagine.
If that were the case, it might just be him!
Sect Master Chen Zhou looked at the document in his hand, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes. “You all wait. I will go ask Senior Long Tai for instructions! Before that, do not act rashly!”
