Chapter 198 Danger

Bonus Chapter 1/5----------

After moving within the small island for a while, Wu Xiaotian finally finds the reason for the feeling he seems to be familiar with, a carefully laid array just covered by sand in the shore, the intricate patterns seemingly old and desolate, yet still emanating a significant trace of spatial fluctuation, the very same fluctuation invoking a familiar feeling to the immortal-like young man.

However, despite already discovering the thing he's searching for, Wu Xiaotian decided to hold off from activating the array as he already knows that whatever they're doing is already being watched by the audience outside, and he doesn't want anyone unrelated to him to know whatever would happen if he activates it, matters such as whether this will bring a boon or a bane not affecting his decision.

After making sure that no one will be able to discover this spatial array, he proceeds to tour around the third layer of the Golden Spirit Pool once again, trying to search for something similar to the array he just found, yet even after circling around the entire place more than once, he never saw anything similar to it.

Deciding to call off his search, he moves towards the island where the ladies are cultivating, his movements not even alerting the people from the other forces related to the ladies cultivating along with him, his arrival seemingly at the right time as the ladies just finished cultivating as well.

"There's only a day left until the Golden Spirit Pool closes, make sure to make the most out of it, young geniuses" out of nowhere, four figures emerged to notify the talents cultivating in the Golden Spirit Pool, five olden figures that elicits respect and awe whenever anyone looks at them, their experienced, elderly eyes displaying a wise gaze that seems to be tempered by time itself.

Hearing the words, the talents from all sorts of forces starts to go full throttle on cultivation, prompting the entire Golden Spirit Pool, no matter which layer, to enter an unprecedented time of calm, not a single one among the remaining participants trying to create a conflict for themselves now.

Of course, this took toll on the people watching outside, as not even before the first hour passed that there's no fights anywhere, the crowd within the coliseum starts thinning out, within the next hour nearly being reduced to just a small fraction of the original, the only ones remaining being people who are either related to someone still participating or some sort of die-hard fan of one of the geniuses still in the Golden Spirit Pool.

After this, the geniuses broke through the next level one by one, multiple dazzling lights from everywhere along the islands piercing through the dome encasing the third layer of the Golden Spirit Pool and passing through the waters, shining as if to try and reach the sky, yet even the combined brilliance of all of them pales in comparison to the first pillar of light that emerges before, making these geniuses wonder just what sort of monsters broke through to invoke such kind of phenomenon.

Time quickly passes by and a day concludes, the next day, the four old men arrives once again to pick all of the people up, their heads shaking quite a bit as they saw the people incapacitated by the young man they are quite fond of, thinking that this children brought it upon themselves for not knowing not only that young man's strength, but also his ruthless character when it comes to dealing with enemies.

"Young fellows, this time's Golden Spirit Pool is now closing…" one of the old men, seemingly the oldest among them stated before looking at the younger generation already gathered within a relatively large island in the third layer, among them are those who fails to reach this layer, said people clearly identifiable from the rest given their roaming gazes trying to take in the view of the mystical third layer.

"Looks like a lot of you got some significant benefits" the oldest added before smiling, looking towards the other old man beside him and nodding at him, prompting said old man to swing his hand, ripping a tear through space, behind them the very same structure they are in before they entered here, the coliseum standing near the middle of the Heavenly Secret City.

"Now, go home and show the world how much powerful you are now, inspire cultivators all throughout the continent to strive higher, to try better, I hope that most, if not all of you can lead this continent to greater heights in cultivation" the old man who opened the spatial tear said, seemingly talking to all of the younger generation present.

There are always the sharper ones though, some of them knows that there's a clear recipient of this message, making the smarter ones look at a young man with a significantly greater build than them, surrounded by five goddess-like ladies enough to cause the downfall not only of a nation, but an entire world.

After the blood boiling speech from the legendary elders of the Heavenly Secret Tower, the young geniuses couldn't help but clench their fists, thinking of how they should try to do as these elders instructed, all while walking through the spatial tear, finding themselves within the familiar massive structure.

After all the other people moves, the elders proceeded to stop Wu Xiaotian's group from passing through, the oldest among them, Hua Xuantian, warned with concern.

"Boy, be careful, your… father is waiting on the other side" the old man said, causing the immortal-like young man to turn serious, his face that of someone who seems prepared to kill or be killed.

"Don't worry kid, these three cannot interfere with your business but I, as Xian'er's grandfather, refuses to let her grow widowed at such an early age" interrupting his oldest brother's warning, Hua Xingtian declared assuringly, the three old men nodding as if to tell him that there's nothing to worry about if their second brother is here.

"Thanks for the concern elders, however, this is something that I need to face alone, there's no need for all of you to interfere unless I am really about to get killed, which I highly doubt that man will do" the immortal-like young man stated with a confident look on his face, the seriousness not dissipating as despite all his guts, it is still pretty problematic to face an Ascension Realm expert given his strength even with the help from the system.

'I can escape, but that's a last resort' he thought to himself as he prepares an Unbounded Spatial Talisman, realizing later the looks that her younger sister is giving her.

In her eyes, multiple negative emotions, terror, worry, concern, even hatred and anger is swimming around the moment she heard the word father, her shaking body clearly signifying just how much trauma she experienced in the hand of someone who was supposed to protect her at all cost.

Seeing her shaking body, Wu Xiaotian pulled her closer to him, gently caressing her small back and head, taking him a few minutes to put her in a calm state.

"Don't worry, he won't be able to lay a single finger on you and your mother from now on, you're under our protection now" he softly whispered to her, causing her to nod a little while sounding her agreement, the immortal-like young man separating a now relatively calm Wu Xiaoyao from himself, patting her head for the last time before asking the elders to take care of her.

As the people move towards the spatial tear, Wu Xiaotian looks in all seriousness, taking a deep breath before using the [Red Thread System], contacting the most important person in his heart.
