Within Linghu City, everything was peaceful.
However, in these past 12 years, Duan Lingtian hadn't left the Linghu family's mansion. No one knew whether or not the Tianlong Clan's inner sect Elder Kuang Tianzheng was lurking outside or not.
Of course, this possibility wasn't high.
Although the possibility wasn't high, Duan Lingtian didn't plan on taking any risks. Moreover, there wasn't much in Linghu City that could attract him.
If he wanted something, he only needed to speak to the Linghu family's Patriarch, Linghu Renjie, and he would immediately send someone to deliver it to him.
"I have no idea when I'll be able to break through the bottleneck of my cultivation."
As he thought of his current cultivation, Duan Lingtian sighed. He sat in the void, overlooking Linghu City. A trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes.
"It's too difficult."
"From becoming a Divinity to breaking through to the lower God King realm, it didn't take long … but now, I've been stuck at the lower God King realm for over a dozen years!"
Fortunately, Duan Lingtian's mutterings weren't heard by anyone. Otherwise, they would have been angered by him.
Being stuck at the lower God King realm for over a dozen years, was that a long time?
"Right now, the king level divine pills and emperor level divine pills that can be refined aren't able to help me break through the bottleneck … but there are several emperor level divine pills that can help me break through the bottleneck after being refined into the limit of divine pills. But, I don't have enough materials for those divine pills. Moreover, with my current ability, I can't refine the limit of emperor level divine pills.
"Forget it … for the next period of time, I'll continue studying alchemy. Perhaps I'll find a turning point and make a breakthrough. "
Thinking of this, Duan Lingtian didn't dwell on his cultivation that hadn't made a breakthrough. He shifted his focus to alchemy.
…
Hidden Fog Sect.
Outside the station.
A figure in snow-white clothes seemed to appear out of thin air. He stood outside the Hidden Fog Sect's station, behind the thick fog.
This was a tall young man. He was handsome, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. His temperament was outstanding. As he stood there, he was like a mountain, towering and unmoving.
Suddenly, his brows raised as if he had noticed something.
Immediately after, he suddenly raised his right hand and reached into the void beside him.
The next moment.
Whoosh!
A figure flew out from behind the white mist. To be precise, it was bound by an invisible force and brought to the white-robed young man.
The person who was caught was an old man. When he looked at the young man in white, his eyes were filled with fear.
No matter what, he was still a High God King with extraordinary strength.
However, before the other party, he was no different from a three-year-old child, completely unable to retaliate at all. The other party's divine power fell on him like a mountain, suppressing his divine power to the point that he was unable to move in the slightest.
Even a Lower Divine Emperor couldn't possibly have such strength, right?
"Even the three Highest Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect don't have this level of strength … just who is he? Why would you appear outside the Hidden Fog Sect's station? "
The old man's heart was filled with nervousness and unease. He excelled in the Water Laws. When he concealed himself, even a Lower Divine Emperor wouldn't be able to discover him unless they swept their divine sense around.
However, even if a Lower Divine Emperor swept out with their divine sense, he would still be able to detect a trace of him.
But, he didn't know if this white-robed young man in front of him used his divine sense to discover him. If he didn't use his divine sense, then one could imagine how terrifying this person was.
If he did use his divine sense, then this person's cultivation was at least that of a middle Divine Emperor!
"Middle Divine Emperor …"
Thinking of this, the old man's heart trembled.
"Who are you? Why are you sneaking around outside the Hidden Fog Sect? "
After capturing the old man, the white-robed young man glanced over him and asked in an indifferent tone.
The indifferent tone seemed to contain pressure, causing the old man's complexion to change.
The old man's eyes flashed several times. Then, he said with a guilty conscience, "My lord, I am just passing by."
The Hidden Fog Sect shouldn't have this person in front of him.
But, who knew if this person in front of him was a powerhouse from the Hidden Fog Sect that was stationed in the Heavenly Dragon Sect? The strongest person in the Hidden Fog Sect was a lower Divine Emperor, but the powerhouses that the Hidden Fog Sect sent to the Heavenly Dragon Sect were all middle Divine Emperors and above.
"I will give you one more chance."
The white-robed young man stared at the old man. His indifferent tone suddenly turned heavy. "If you dare to bully me again, I will immediately cut you down!"
The white-robed young man's tone caused the old man's pupils to shrink. His complexion instantly paled.
He could tell that this young man wasn't joking.
"My lord."
The old man panicked. Even if he was a higher Divine King, in front of this powerhouse that was like a mountain pressing down on him, he couldn't maintain his calm. He didn't dare to lie. "I am here because I want to hide in the shadows and wait for the Hidden Fog Sect disciple to come out. Then, I will follow him and kill him from afar."
"Why?"
The white-robed young man's eyes sharpened. He deeply looked at the old man and asked, "Do you have enmity with the Hidden Fog Sect? You actually dared to take the risk of lurking outside the Hidden Fog Sect and attack their disciples. "
"A blood feud!"
The old man seemed to recall something. His face revealed a pained expression and a terrifying hatred burst out from his eyes. "My only son and my two grandsons went to Linghu City to handle some matters. They just so happened to encounter the Hidden Fog Sect's Elder Feng attacking the Linghu family's Foreign Elder Duan Lingtian.
"That Elder Feng's attack failed. Facing the siege of nine Divine Emperor powerhouses, he chose to detonate the small world within his body. He nearly destroyed the entire Linghu City and caused countless casualties!
"My son and my two grandsons were among them."
The old man's tone was incomparably cold.
"Elder Feng?"
"He detonated the small world within his body?"
"He destroyed Linghu City?"
The white-robed young man's originally calm and indifferent expression finally changed. "Are you sure what you said is true?"
"My lord."
The old man bitterly smiled. "Everything I said is true. Who in Tung Leng Province doesn't know of this matter?
"Now, many people from distant lands have come to Linghu City, all to see with their own eyes the city that was once destroyed by the Hidden Fog Sect's Elder Feng.
"However, Linghu City has already been rebuilt by the Hidden Fog Sect … it is said that this was an order directly passed down from the Tianlong Clan."
As the old man spoke to here, he cautiously looked at the white-robed young man in front of him. "My lord, you don't know about this?"
"I just left seclusion. After leaving seclusion, I directly came to the Hidden Fog Sect."
The white-robed young man lightly said.
"My lord, you aren't from the Hidden Fog Sect?"
The old man let out a breath of relief. Looking at the current situation, this person didn't seem like someone from the Hidden Fog Sect. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so clueless.
"My name is Xue Haichuan. What do you think?"
The white-robed young man deeply looked at the old man and asked.
Xue Haichuan!
The moment the white-robed young man's voice fell, the old man's originally calm complexion suddenly changed. His eyes revealed waves of panic and fear.
Xue Haichuan, he naturally knew who he was.
10,000 years ago, the Hidden Fog Sect relied on a Divine Spirit Realm cultivation to become a core disciple. Afterwards, he went to the Tianlong Clan and rapidly rose up.
Many years ago, it was said that Xue Haichuan had already become a White Dragon Elder of the Tianlong Clan.
Moreover, he was one of the three youngest White Dragon Elders of the Tianlong Clan.
"So far, how many people from the Hidden Fog Sect have you killed?"
A rare smile appeared on Xue Haichuan's face as he asked the old man in front of him.
"No … I haven't killed …"
The old man opened his mouth, wanting to deny that he had killed anyone from the Hidden Fog Sect. But as he sensed Xue Haichuan's cold gaze, he hurriedly said, "I haven't killed many! Really, I haven't killed many! "
"Lord … Lord Xue Haichuan, please spare my life. I promise I won't attack the disciples of the Hidden Fog Sect in the future. Even if a Hidden Fog Sect disciple attacks someone, I will help him!"
The old man tried his best to survive.
However, his struggle for survival was quickly futile.
Bang!
Xue Haichuan casually pushed out a palm and the old man was sent flying away. After flying a hundred meters away, he exploded into a bloody mist that filled the skies. He couldn't be any more dead.
"Every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor. I pity your children and grandchildren for dying in vain, but you shouldn't have attacked the innocent people of the Hidden Fog Sect."
Xue Haichuan glanced at the direction where the old man died and muttered to himself. Then, his figure flickered and he entered the Hidden Fog Sect.
Just as Xue Haichuan appeared in the Hidden Fog Sect's station, a Hidden Fog Sect Elder leading the patrol team recognized him. He immediately rushed forwards with excitement. "Elder … Elder Xue Haichuan!"
"It's Elder Xue Haichuan!"
"Heavens! It's actually Elder Xue Haichuan! "
…
Behind the Hidden Fog Sect's patrol Elder, a group of patrol disciples discovered the identity of the white-clothed youth. Their eyes shined with excitement.
In the Hidden Fog Sect, Xue Haichuan could be called a 'legendary' character. He was also the idol of the Hidden Fog Sect's young disciples.
In the past, they had only heard of this Elder Xue Haichuan. At the same time, they yearned to meet him one day.
Now that they finally saw him, how could they not be excited?
"I never thought that after not returning to the sect for a long time, there would still be people who would recognize me."
Xue Haichuan faintly smiled.
And just as Xue Haichuan's voice fell, ghost-like figures flew out from the depths of the Hidden Fog Sect's station.
When they found out about Xue Haichuan's identity, the patrolling elders and a group of patrolling disciples immediately sent out messages to spread the news.
The nearby Hidden Fog Sect Elders and disciples all heard the news and rushed over.
For the last dozen some years, the Hidden Fog Sect could be said to have been shrouded in dark clouds. In the past, Elder Feng had blown up Linghu City. It could be said that he had made countless enemies for the Hidden Fog Sect and had caused the deaths of many Hidden Fog Sect disciples.
Now, with the return of a legendary character like Xue Haichuan, the Hidden Fog Sect Elders and disciples immediately saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
Perhaps this legendary character had returned to help the Hidden Fog Sect resolve this matter?
"Haha …"
A hearty laugh echoed through the air. Then, a purple-robed old man's figure flickered. He carried with him surging thunder as he passed through the crowd and arrived in front of Xue Haichuan. "Brat Haichuan, you're still willing to come back? I thought you forgot about the sect. "
"Elder Thunder."
Seeing the purple-robed old man, Xue Haichuan's eyes brightened. He immediately bowed.
