C77 Profound Blue Sect

After returning to the camp, Hou Mingyuan and the rest did not pay too much attention to Luo Xiu and his group leaving. Everyone should rest for the night, and continue their journey on the second day.

During the following journey, because they had traveled deeper into the inner circle of the Mount Cang Yun, the number of times they met with Demonic Beasts had increased. However, in front of this group composed mainly of Martial Masters, they weren't much of a threat.

On the third day, Luo Xiu and the others had already sensed that the number of beasts in the vicinity had started to decrease. At the same time, they could sense the disordered aura of vitality in the air.

Shortly after noon, Luo Xiu and the rest passed through an extremely vast forest and appeared outside a very large and protruding mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, a cylindrical light curtain shot up to the sky and coincidentally surrounded the mountain peak. The pressuring aura in the air spread out from the light barrier.

"We've finally arrived at the location of the Profound Blue Sect!"

Luo Xiu looked at the light pillar from afar, his eyes blazing with fire.

"Yes."

Hou Mingyuan smiled and nodded: "That light curtain is the Profound Blue Sect's Mountain Defence Barrier. It is said that during that year, Daoist Master Cang Song used his own Wu Yuan as a guide and used the essence of heaven and earth to activate the formation. Later on, even a few Martial Lord experts combined their attacks but were unable to break through the barrier."

Chu Hongling could feel the unusual fluctuations in the air, and sighed: "Although it's been a hundred years and the barrier has weakened, it still cannot be underestimated, and I am afraid even today, martial general level experts are still unable to move."

"Yes!"

At this time, Mu Kun also came closer, and looked at Hou Mingyuan with a sincere face: "That's why Sect Master handed the treasure that can break the barrier to Eldest Brother, and asked Eldest Brother to lead us into the mountains to look for treasures."

Luo Xiu muttered to himself for a while: "However, according to the current situation, if I want to break this barrier, I will probably need an extremely powerful treasure."

Mu Kun's eyes shined slightly as he laughed: "At least it's a Mysterious rank treasure, right?"

As soon as he said that, the disciples' gazes all turned to Hou Mingyuan, as if they had been attracted by a magnet, showing their interest towards the "Xuan Artifact".

The pros and cons of magical equipment and weapons were divided into grades. From low to high, the pros and cons were: Low, Middle, High, Exquisite, Mysterious etc.

High-grade treasures could be counted as treasure grade; top-grade treasures were already the targets of the top powers in the county for it; as for the Mysterious rank, it was extremely rare even in the Burning Sun Sect.

As a result, when everyone heard that the treasure in Hou Mingyuan's hand was extremely likely to be a Mysterious rank treasure, everyone gave him a curious look. After all, a Mysterious rank treasure was a very precious treasure!

The envy in Xue Qiang's eyes was not concealed at all. "Eldest Senior Brother, what did Master give you?"

Mu Kun saw that Hou Mingyuan had not moved and chimed in: "That's right Big Senior, why don't you take it out for us to experience?"

Hou Mingyuan smiled and shook his head: "The sect doesn't even have ten profound treasures, and they are all the personal treasures of the Lord of the Five Peaks. How can they be so easily taken out of the sect by us?"

When everyone heard this, a look of disappointment appeared on their faces.

Mu Kun still did not give up. "Big Senior couldn't be lying to us, right? Even if it is a hundred years from now, the might will still remain. If there is no Xuan Artifact that can unleash a power comparable to that of a Martial Lord, how could we people break the barrier? "

"About that," Hou Mingyuan suddenly laughed mysteriously, "Everyone will know when they get to the scene."

After saying that, Hou Mingyuan no longer explained, everyone still wanted to ask more, but Hou Mingyuan waved his hand, signalling everyone to hurry up and rush down the mountain, and then everyone gave up.

The group continued onward, and after about an hour, they arrived at the entrance of Profound Blue Sect, about two to three hundred meters away from the gigantic barrier of light.

"So many people have come!"

Luo Xiu's gaze swept across his surroundings, looking at the many scattered camps at the foot of the mountain.

At the bottom of the Profound Blue Sect, there were already many teams searching for treasures. These squads formed camps according to their respective forces' organization, and maintained a safe distance from each other's hearts, gathering sparsely and densely at the foot of the Profound Blue Mountain.

"All the nearby Monstrous Beasts were driven away by the undulations from this protective formation. Right now, every team here are potential competitors." Chu Hongling detected the vigilance in every single one of their eyes, and warned Luo Xiu to be on alert.

"En," Luo Xiu nodded his head, "Although it is so, but before seeing the treasure, everyone would not act rashly."

Just as Luo Xiu had said, every team here was an opponent that was fighting over the treasures. They were very hostile towards each other and they were very vigilant.

The arrival of Burning Sun Sect's group quickly attracted the attention of many forces. Not long after, almost all of the teams focused their attention on them.

"They don't have the ability to break the barrier, and the appearance of the Burning Sun Sect means that the barrier is about to open."

Luo Xiu thought, his gaze sweeping across them, and noticing that when the people from the other forces looked at them, their eyes were blazing with fire that could not be hidden.

And because of the Burning Sun Sect's special position, Luo Xiu and the rest were able to pass through many teams' campgrounds without any obstructions. Some people even made way for them, allowing Burning Sun Sect and the rest to go along with them.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, Luo Xiu and the others had already arrived in front of the sect protecting barrier, and were only about thirty meters away from the barrier of light.

"What a strong source energy pressure!" Amongst the group, Chu Hongling, who had the lowest cultivation level, sighed.

Luo Xiu and the rest were all Martial Masters, so resisting the pressure was not too difficult. As for Chu Hongling who was only at the high rank martial envoy level, he found it hard to do.

"The closer you are to the barrier, the more intense the pressure from the Yuan Power radiating from it becomes. This is also the reason why there weren't any teams stationed within a radius of ten feet from the light screen."

Hou Mingyuan said, and indicated for everyone to look around. Unlike outside, at the location closest to the enchantment, there was not a single team encamped.

"Yes." "This place is already close enough. If we go any further, I'm afraid that we would all need to circulate our Essence to defend against it. Before we enter the mountain, let's not waste any energy and stop here." Luo Xiu looked at the barrier of light that was extremely dense, and suggested.

Hou Mingyuan intentionally glanced at Chu Hongling, seeing the latter's serious expression, he nodded: "Alright, let us rest here for a while."

To everyone's surprise, when Hou Mingyuan and the rest arrived at the barrier, they did not actually make a move to break the barrier, but chose to rest on the spot instead?

Not only were the people watching the Burning Sun Sect from the sidelines, even Xue Qiang and the others were slightly startled. It was obvious that they did not expect their senior brother to make such a decision.

But when they wanted to ask again, Hou Mingyuan had already chosen an empty space and sat cross-legged on the ground.

Mu Kun hesitated for a moment, thinking that a fierce battle might happen soon, he also walked over. After meditating and recuperating, most of the others, upon seeing Mu Kun's actions, went to find an empty land to rest.

Luo Xiu walked to Chu Hongling's side and stood between her and the light screen. This way, he would be able to help Chu Hongling, who had a low cultivation level, block the pressure of the barrier origin energy.

Just as Luo Xiu was prepared to sit down, his eyes suddenly flashed, he looked up and saw a high ground not far away. A group of young people dressed in navy blue entered his eyes, and at the same time, the young man was also looking at the people of Burning Sun Sect.

"They are from the Mingyou Valley, they have never been on good terms with us, the Burning Sun Sect."

Chu Hongling followed Luo Xiu's gaze and looked over, and also discovered a group of people who were eye-catching, and whispered to Luo Xiu's side.

"Mingyou Valley s of one of the Four Major Sects."

Hearing this name, Luo Xiu's heart stirred. One of the's Four Major Sects, Ling You Valley was ranked alongside their Burning Sun Sect.

His gaze swept across the faces of the group of young people, and actually saw faces of contempt, and the young man in the lead, was even staring at Luo Xiu playfully.

"That person is Lu Qing, one of the inner disciples of the Mingyou Valley. I heard that he is an extremely outstanding person among the young disciples."

Looking at the young man's pretty face, who had an evil smile on it, Chu Hongling frowned as he introduced him to Luo Xiu.

"Lu Qing!"

Luo Xiu softly muttered that name. As their four eyes met, they could feel the obscure origin energy fluctuations from each other's bodies. The degree of that aura was actually not the slightest bit weaker than senior brother Hou Mingyuan's.

"Although the Mingyou Valley has sent many people to fight for the Profound Blue Sect's secret treasure, it is only for the training of the young disciples. The people of the previous generation can only be used as a pressure array, if the people of the previous generation were to fight for the treasure, the nature of their journey would not be to train themselves, but to meddle in the territory of our Burning Sun Sect."

Chu Hongling paused for a moment, and continued: "Furthermore, looking at the current situation, it seems that the most outstanding disciples of their generation did not come.

The corner of his mouth raised up in a complicated smile. Chu Hongling's smile seemed to be a little bitter.

Luo Xiu was a little taken aback: "This Lu Qing is already a martial master of the High Level Martial Master, but he still isn't the most outstanding one in the Mingyou Valley?"

Chu Hongling looked at Luo Xiu with a complicated expression and sighed softly, "Among the three clans and four sects, other than our Burning Sun Sect, the younger generation of our sect have already produced some martial general level talents. These people are the most elite talents even in the Great Zhou Dynasty. As for Lu Qing's level, although he can be considered a young genius, he is merely a second rate disciple in the Mingyou Valley. "

The Burning Sun Sect was also one of the Four Major Sects, but the young disciple Hou Mingyuan, who had the highest cultivation in the Burning Sun Sect, was only at High Level Martial Master.

No wonder in recent years, the three clans and three sects had suppressed the Burning Sun Sect and even sent people to the Profound Blue Sect to snatch the secret treasures. All of this was to bully the decline of the Burning Sun Sect, there was no one left to take over!
