Amidst the statue, Yan Zhaoge stared at the higher echelon experts of Great Snowy Mountain.
Gazing carefully, there were four Martial Saints and over ten Martial Grandmasters present.
Of the four Martial Saints, one was a late Merging Avatar Martial Saint, one was a mid Merging Avatar Martial Saint and two were early Merging Avatar Martial Saints.
Adding in Bai Ziming who had ascended to the World beyond Worlds not long ago, Great Snowy Mountain's lineage had previously had at least five Martial Saint experts.
Bai Ziming had once mentioned that his Great Snowy Mountain was not the strongest power of the Floating Gate World.
He himself had also not been the first person of the Floating Gate World to ascend after attaining the fourth level of the Martial Saint realm.
Yan Zhaoge nodded to himself, "Indeed, this is a world where the martial civilisation has developed and is even more prosperous than the current Eight Extremities World."
Still, Yan Zhaoge could not be bothered to consider these problems now.
He was currently within the variant wound of the sky, danger lurking all around him. Madame Kang, Tan Jin and the others were also eyeing him like tigers watching their prey.
As soon as the bloodred vortex vanished and the wound of the sky returned to normal, Madame Kang and Tan Jin might make a move.
Also, Tan Jin and the other Radiant Light Sect martial practitioners had returned to the World beyond Worlds to receive their Chief Luo Zhiyuan. If this expert of the peak of the late Seeing Divinity stage were to return, Yan Zhaoge would be in an even more dangerous situation.
Having finally arrived in the Floating Gate World, Yan Zhaoge now had to consider how to contact his Grand Master.
Yan Zhaoge did not know whether to laugh or to cry at the current situation.
Those of Great Snowy Mountain were rather fast. Bai Ziming had only ascended not long ago, yet they had already finished constructing the Incense Bearing Temple.
Through the jade pendant that Bai Ziming had given him, he had attached a strand of his divine will to the jade green mist in descending here, somewhat resembling a dream of divinity.
Yan Zhaoge felt that this was actually the reason why Great Snowy Mountain had paid a visit to Bai Ziming's Incense Bearing Temple. It would be convenient for their old Grand Master to communicate with those of their lineage who were still in the Floating Gate World, passing down their teachings.
Bai Ziming had not been able to accurately locate the Floating Gate World before this, so this method had never been put to use.
Now that he had succeeded in his first descent, the one who had descended was himself and not Bai Ziming.
Looking at the obvious anticipation and joy of those of Great Snowy Mountain on their faces, Yan Zhaoge, Yan Zhaoge the fake felt a great pressure.
He had originally wanted to rely on the jade pendant to guide the way, helping his Northern Ocean Clone directly descend into the Floating Gate World. Yet, he had not thought that this would be the case.
Yan Zhaoge pondered, could it be that he had to impersonate someone?
"It shouldn't be that easy, right? Otherwise, Bai Ziming wouldn't have given me the jade pendant so hastily. Isn't he afraid that I'll screw over his disciples in the Jambu Realm? "
As Yan Zhaoge thought thus, indeed, the joy on the faces of the four Martial Saints leading the Great Snowy Mountain martial practitioners before him faded as their gazes turned doubtful and cautious.
Seeing this, Yan Zhaoge knew that he had guessed correctly. Wanting to be a charlatan was not so easy.
The late Merging Avatar old man before him did not change his expression, "May I ask who you are? Why do you possess senior apprentice-brother Bai's Descending Spirit Jade Pendant?"
The other Great Snow Mountain cultivators still did not notice. They continued to greet Bai Ziming's statue excitedly.
Those four longtime Martial Saints of Great Snowy Mountain did not stop them. Not being clear on Yan Zhaoge's background and Bai Ziming's current situation, they placed caution above all else, not daring to alarm or enrage Yan Zhaoge in any way.
Yan Zhaoge answered candidly, "I am surnamed Yan, Yan Zhaoge. I appeared in the World beyond Worlds and was fortunate enough to be acquainted with Mister Bai."
"Afterwards, I learnt from Mister Bai that I have a senior who is currently in the Floating Gate World. Therefore, I wanted to look for him. With Mister Bai's help, he lent me this Descending Spirit Jade Pendant, allowing me to communicate with you all. I did not understand the situation here previously. Please forgive this Yan for being rude."
Those four could not help but exchange looks. After pondering for a moment, their leader waved his hands towards the others, indicating for them to leave first.
While they were taken aback, they could only obey their Chief's instructions as they all left in unison. Only the four Martial Saints of Great Snowy Mountain remained in the great hall.
The leader said, "Young Master Yan is polite. Senior apprentice-brother Bai being willing to lend you the Descending Spirit Jade Pendant, Young Master Yan is a friend of my Great Snowy Mountain. Still, what is the name of your senior?"
Bai Ziming himself had still not been able to completely communicate with the Floating Gate World through the Descending Spirit Jade Pendant.
Otherwise, he would definitely have been the first to attempt it, first greeting and communicating with his sect.
In lending this to Yan Zhaoge on one hand, it was to form a good relationship with him. On the other, it was also with the intention of borrowing Yan Zhaoge's strength to complete the ritual.
After all, Yan Zhaoge always had shocking feats, especially in the area of various miscellaneous arts and formations which left the world sighing in admiration.
And the truth now proved that Bai Ziming had guessed correctly.
Yan Zhaoge and the four Elders of Great Snowy Mountain were all well aware of this. Still, there was no need for them to mention it openly.
Yan Zhaoge said, "My Grand Master's surname is Yuan, and his name is Shangzhengxia Feng."
Hearing Yuan Zhengfeng's name, they were instantly rather taken aback as they exchanged glances.
Noticing that their expressions were not quite right, Yan Zhaoge asked, "Mister Bai said that he once met my Grand Master. When he ascended to the World beyond Worlds earlier, my Grand Master even went to Great Snowy Mountain's Icy Palace to observe his ceremony."
Bitter smiles appeared on the faces of the four Great Snowy Mountain experts.
One of them sighed, "To tell you the truth, we are naturally acquainted with your Grand Master, Mister Yuan. While we have only met a few times, we still have a deep impression of him. Still …"
He shook his head slightly, changing the topic, "Senior apprentice-brother Bai once said before ascending that Mister Yuan will soon be able to attempt a breakthrough into the Seeing Divinity stage. Still, Young Master Yan, I fear that you will not be able to see him ascend to the World beyond Worlds within a short period of time."
Yan Zhaoge asked, "Why is that?"
The other party answered, "Your Grand Master, Yuan Equalling Heaven, was originally a guest Elder of our Floating Gate World's Towering Wave Pavilion. Towering Wave Pavilion was destroyed by the Heavy Sun Sect before this. While your Grand Master was not of the direct lineage of Towering Wave Pavilion, he was highly regarded by the Heavy Sun Sect, who trapped him at the mouth of the West Sea with a trap."
Yan Zhaoge was rendered speechless upon hearing his words.
He had heard Bai Ziming mention the Heavy Sun Sect before. It was the number one power of the Floating Gate World in recent years, the strongest sect.
There was not just a single one of their experts who had ascended to the World beyond Worlds. It was even rumoured that they had even re-established their sect in the World beyond Worlds, just that it was not in the Royal Reed Sea.
The elder from the Great Snow Mountain continued, "Mister Yuan's strength is astonishing. Even the leader of the Chongyang Sect was no match for him. This time, the Chongyang Sect took advantage of his unpreparedness and trapped him in the eye of the ocean with a trap. Then, they launched a surprise attack and destroyed the Towering Wave Pavilion.
Yan Zhaoge asked in a heavy tone, "How is my Grand Master now?"
The Great Snowy Mountain Elder answered, "After destroying Towering Wave Pavilion, the Heavy Sun Sect dispatched a great number of experts to the West Sea. Still, they were unable to do anything to your Grand Master, only able to make use of the geographical advantage of the mouth of the sea to set up a formation to trap him. The two sides are currently in a stalemate. The Heavy Sun Sect should be planning to slowly whittle away at his strength."
