Seeing the Heaven Seeking Cauldron being suppressed, was something that the Dao Sect could not accept. The Heaven Seeking Cauldron was like the Hong Ni Shuang Jian of the Zongtian Sect, it was a symbol of a sect, and if the Heaven Seeking Cauldron was suppressed, that meant, in terms of power, the Zongtian Sect was stronger than the Dao Sect by a fold.
"How many years has it been? I can't even remember. Finally, a talented disciple has come out."
"Welcome, Master." All of the Dao Sect disciples kneeled down towards one direction, kowtowing from the bottom of their hearts.
To have such an existence in the Dao Sect was beyond the realm of neo-spiritual realm, possessing the power to destroy the heavens and earth.
However, there was only one such existence in the Dao Sect, and it was just like how there was the same person in the Zongtian Sect.
These people normally wouldn't care about the trifling matters of the sect, and would only act when life and death were at stake. These people were more like guardians of the sect.
Mu Cheng looked thoughtfully at that direction. In his heart, he yearned for that kind of realm. That kind of strength of being able to cover the sky with one hand caused Mu Cheng to yearn for it even more.
It was the man who had just been hiding. With just one word, he had scattered the strange phenomenon in the sky. He was strong enough to look down on the whole world.
Mu Cheng naturally knew how powerful it was. With just a single sentence, it caused the Spiritual Energy to dissipate into nothingness. This was the first time Mu Cheng felt fear towards such a powerful force.
"Little friend, our ancestor invites you over for a chat." A Dao Sect disciple walked towards Mu Cheng.
This person's gaze towards Mu Cheng changed as well and he was filled with reverence. This was the reverence that other cultivators would have for those with great power.
Mu Cheng smiled, and his heart was in turmoil. Since that person had taken action earlier, not only did he not take his life, but his tone was also filled with goodwill, so Mu Cheng was not worried that the other party would secretly harm him. Furthermore, there were so many cultivators around, so even if Dao Sect wanted to play some tricks, he would not make a move now.
"Damn it, what ability does that Mu Cheng have to be summoned by the ancestor?"
Long Juyin let out an unwilling roar in his heart and looked at Mu Cheng with hostility.
"This brat was too rude just now. Senior Brother, please lead the way." Mu Cheng maintained an extremely low profile as he said this with extreme modesty.
"Okay, senior brother does not dare to say anything. The strength senior brother Mu displayed just now, I'm afraid he already possesses the fighting strength of neo-spiritual realm."
The Dao Sect cultivator probed.
Right now, I am at most in the middle stage of the broken soul. Perhaps, I might even reach the late stage of the broken soul soon. "
Mu Cheng's tone was light and casual. The more he acted this way, the more reverence this Dao Sect cultivator had for him.
"My god." The cultivator exclaimed in his heart, but his expression became increasingly fiery as he looked at Mu Cheng.
Such a talented individual would have unlimited achievements in the future, so it was necessary to strike up a good relationship with him now. Perhaps in the future, other people might even pay attention to their relationship.
When Mu Cheng arrived, he turned around and started to size up Mu Cheng. At the same time, Mu Cheng also started to size up this old man.
This person had a very thin and weak body, but Mu Cheng could feel the tyrannical strength within his body.
"Senior, why have you summoned me?" Mu Cheng cautiously said as he looked at the old man.
"Hehe, it's nothing much. I just want to meet little friend. Your name is Mu Cheng, right?"
The old man said indifferently as he looked at Mu Cheng with a burning gaze.
"Hey, you have Mysterious Heaven Jade on you?" The old man discovered a Mysterious Heaven Jade on Mu Cheng's right hand.
Mu Cheng was also astonished in his heart. The expression on the old man's face changed drastically as he glared at Mu Cheng.
Mu Cheng felt as if he was being stared at by a wild beast. Was this the aura? Mu Cheng was alarmed and looked towards the old man.
The old man didn't use any Fa Li at all and only relied on his own power.
"Does Senior not know?" Mu Cheng looked at the old man in shock and asked in a low voice.
"Hehe, it has been a long time since I heard about what happened outside, if it wasn't for your Qi Lin Sword waking me up, I'm afraid that I would still be in deep sleep."
When the old man noticed Mu Cheng's restraint, he faintly smiled. Mu Cheng felt the pressure around him immediately disappear.
"Senior, it's like this …"
Mu Cheng told the old man about how he obtained the Mysterious Heaven Jade, and even mentioned the Whistling Sky Wolf.
"Oh? That Whistling Sky Wolf actually has such big guts. Don't let me meet him in the future, maybe I will capture him and lock him up for a hundred years. "
The old man's tone was stern, and his eyes emitted a bright light.
"Senior knows the Whistling Sky Wolf?"
When Mu Cheng heard the meaning behind the old man's words, a sense of respect arose in his heart. The gaze with which he looked at the old man became even more respectful.
"Hehe, knowing each other is not enough, I have destroyed your Qi Lin's sword and condensed a sword spirit, as compensation, I will gift you some good fortune." The old man said meaningfully, at the same time, his eyes shot out a ray of light, which pulled Qi Lin's sword over.
Mu Cheng only felt that his body was no longer listening to him and he felt all of the mana in his body converging into his body. A strange energy was guiding the massive mana in his body and Mu Cheng knew that this mana was most likely a gift from the old man.
Thus, Mu Cheng closed his eyes and circulated the Fa Li in his dantian. Following this flow of Fa Li through his meridians, a strange energy rose from within his body, warming him.
"Since you've become a good person, then send the Buddha to the west. Also, repair the sword spirit of your sword while you're at it."
The old man had also held onto Qi Lin's sword, and repeatedly checked on it as he muttered to himself.
A faint purple mana shot out from the old man's body, slowly surrounding Qi Lin's sword.
Woo! Woo!
The body of Qi Lin's sword released a humming sound, as though it was rejecting the old man's mana.
It seems that this sword spirit has already recognized him as its master, so if you try to forcefully repair it like this, it might cause the sword spirit to resist. Since you are unwilling, then I will not force you to do so.
The old man waved his hand, and sent Qi Lin's sword into the core of the earth. Waves of warmth flowed into Qi Lin's sword, causing the sword's body to tremble, and emit joyous cries.
"Master Gu, do you think Mu Cheng will be fine?" Zi Ling looked at Gu Qianche with a face full of worry.
"Hehe, foolish girl, do you think that our Ancestor will harm his own disciple?"
Gu Qianche laughed and said, looking at the place where the light aura was rising, he looked to be deep in thought.
"But, why is it that five days have already passed, and tomorrow is the departure date? Mu Cheng still hasn't come back?"
If it wasn't for Gu Qianche stopping him, it was very likely that Zi Ling would have gone to the main peak of the Dao Sect to ask for an answer.
"Wait, Zi Ling, where are you going?" Gu Qianche looked at Zi Ling who looked like she was about to leave, and blocked him from entering.
"Master Gu, since they haven't given us an answer, I'll ask for it."
Zi Ling looked coldly at Gu Qianche in front of him, her eyes filled with an ice-cold color.
"Zi Ling, calm down. Dao Sect will definitely not harm Mu Cheng's life." Gu Qianche said calmly.
"Zi Ling, do you see that light cloud? Don't you feel that it's a little familiar? I suspect that Mu Cheng is currently experiencing some sort of good fortune. If you were to head over at this time, you might be able to interrupt him. " Gu Qianche pointed to the circle of light formed by mana in the distance.
"But …" Zi Ling was unreconciled, she immediately turned her body, and stood dejectedly by the side.
"Zi Ling, would Master Gu lie to you? If I am unable to see Mu Cheng tomorrow, not only you, I will also have to ask for an answer. The three of you were brought here by me, so I will bring the three of you back untouched. Gu Qianche said firmly, his eyes revealing a trace of determination.
Time passed by very quickly. On the morning of the second day, Zi Ling was already standing outside of the Dao Sect's Main Hall, looking at the cultivators that were walking in and out. Zi Ling was looking for a similar person, but she couldn't find Mu Cheng's back no matter how hard she searched.
"Junior Sister Zi Ling, why are you here so early today? Right now, there are still four hours until the starting point. "
Zhan Xingchen looked at Zi Ling curiously, who knew that Zi Ling's anxious face would change in an instant when she saw him. She looked at Zhan Xingchen with an ice-cold gaze, and a burst of magical power aura burst out from her body.
"Speak, what did you do to Mu Cheng?" Zi Ling coldly asked, a change from her usual calm demeanor surprised Zhan Xingchen.
"Junior Sister Zi Ling, who knows where this Mu Cheng is, and how he has the time to bother us."
"Even if he were to head to the trial grounds this time, it would probably not be as lucky as what he would receive this time."
Zhan Xingchen finally understood why Zi Ling would be so angry, and he laughed in his heart.
"Zhan Xingchen, if you have something to say, just say it, stop chattering and listen to it." Zi Ling said coldly, with an impatient look. This was the first time Zi Ling had displayed such an unladylike appearance.
"Hehe, Junior Sister Zi Ling, listen to me."
Zhan Xingchen was not good with words to begin with, and now that he was blocked by Zi Ling, he did not know how to explain.
