A trace of admiration appeared on Lu Bo's face. To be able to understand this truth at a young age, this young man was truly extraordinary.
In fact, Lu Bo had been against Zhou Ya's approach from the beginning, but he was, after all, a servant. The final decision was in Zhou Ya's hands. He could only comply with her wish and seal Tang Huifang's profound vein.
Yun Lintian knew that there was no need for him to say more. After so many ups and downs that Zhou Ya had gone through, he believed she could understand what he wanted to say.
He changed the topic and asked. "Senior Lu, can I ask you something? I am curious just how many Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm experts out there. Honestly, I always thought they are legendary existences, but I've encountered a lot of them lately."
He couldn't help saying. "If there were so many of them, why would we almost lose in the battle four thousand years ago?"
This question had been lingering in Yun Lintian's mind for a while now. Before this, he understood that the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm experts were very rare and hard to find. However, after he went to the Western Continent, he discovered that his previous thoughts were too na?ve. There were several of them everywhere.
Lu Bo was surprised when he heard this question, but it was understandable. After all, Yun Lintian was too young.
Lu Bo smiled and explained. "In the ancient era where practitioners here could ascend to the Divine World, the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm practitioners were like clouds. You could find them wherever you go to."
"One day, everyone suddenly found out the world had been sealed. The ascending path had been completely blocked. There was no way for them to ascend. This led to a famous Ascension Convention led by the arguable number one expert in that era, Longevity Monarch."
A layer of haze emerged in Lu Bo's vision as he continued. "At that time, countless powerhouses all over the world had jointly destroyed the world's boundary seal and succeeded in the end. However, instead of opening the ascending path, it ended up leading to a pitch black world called Abyssal World and invited countless Abyssal Beasts in."

"Once the world fell into chaos, Longevity Monarch and the other powerhouses found another way to leave this world. They didn't hesitate to abandon this place and fled away, leaving a huge mess behind."
Lu Bo sighed softly and said. "Of course, there were still many powerhouses left behind. They were worried about their descendants and chose to stay, trying to fix the mess they brought up."
"The Abyssal World is similar to ours. They have so many powerful experts that are not inferior to Longevity Monarch. Several of our powerhouses had sacrificed their lives to fight back, but the number of enemies was too large, and we began to suffer disadvantage."
He turned to Yun Lintian and said. "That incident had taken countless heroes away but also created new ones. For example, the founder of the Azure Palace. Under his leadership, we could finally turn the tide and successfully drive them away. Even though some remnants were left behind, it could still be counted as a win for us."
"Those experts you've met are naturally the survivors of that battle. Since the hope of breaking the boundary again is bleak, they either live a normal life among mortals or isolate themselves from the world. No longer care about worldly affairs."
Yun Lintian slowly nodded his head. Looked like Lu Bo had no idea about Yun Wushuang and the Misty Cloud Palace. The curiosity in his heart had grown bigger again. He was truly wondering who the person that altered history was.
Since it was something he couldn't find the answer at the moment, Yun Lintian put it aside and changed the topic. "I can you give a general map of the Skymist Ancient City, Senior?"
Lu Bo didn't answer right away but asked instead. "I'm curious. What method are you going to use? You should be aware that not a single person could successfully enter the ancient city." He paused for a moment and said. "Naturally, it's fine if you don't want to tell me. But if you're confident about getting in, I want to ask you to do me a favor."
Zhou Ya's expression changed slightly when she heard this. She looked at Lu Bo with a questioning gaze.
Lu Bo ignored Zhou Ya and calmly waited for Yun Lintian's answer.
Yun Lintian smiled faintly. "I cannot guarantee the result, but I am confident."
"Uncle Lu…" Zhou Ya said in a low voice while shaking her head slightly.
Lu Bo looked at her and said solemnly. "Miss, this is the only way we could help the little young master. My intuition told me that this young hero was likely to succeed. And with a divine beast by his side, at least, his character is guaranteed. I believe he's not a bad person… He could simply subdue us, but he didn't do it. You can think about it, Miss."
Zhou Ya opened her mouth but couldn't find any reason to refute him. Of course, it could be Yun Lintian's conspiracy all along, but she could see clearly that Yun Lintian didn't honestly care about them and their matters. Besides, there was no point in him going through such a troublesome method while he could subdue them directly.
After a while, Zhou Ya let out a sigh and said. "Alright."
Lu Bo nodded solemnly. He turned to Yun Lintian and threw a jade slip toward him. "This is the city map. There's everything in detail… Even the Skymist Ancient Clan's treasury."
Yun Lintian skillfully caught the jade slip and read it briefly with his Spiritual Sense. It was, as Lu Bo said, the map was highly detailed. As long as he could enter the city, he would never get lost with this.

Yun Lintian put the jade slip away and said. "Please state your condition."
