"Sect Leader …" Everyone's surprised and delighted gazes were focused on the person in charge of the sect.
Qu Jiang frowned, and waved his hand. "Let's go take a look first." With a wave of his hand, he summoned his flying sword. Suddenly, he recalled something, and turned to look at Zhu Yao. "That … elderly man, come with us."
The crowd once again gathered their gazes onto Zhu Yao.
Elderly Zhu Yao: "…"
With a wave of the Sect Master's hand, Zhu Yao flew towards him, and stopped on his flying sword.
"Sect Master, then these new disciples who have yet to wake up …" Someone asked.
"Who cares about the disciples now!" He waved his sleeves and said. "We'll talk about it tomorrow."
Thus, he brought the group of upper echelons towards the peak of nouveau riche he had just unlocked – Skybond Peak!
In an instant, the dozen or so upper echelons and the elderly man had already arrived in front of the jewel-adorned palace on Skybond Peak. Strangely, though this mountain had risen from the water, not a single trace of water could be seen on the mountain. It was clean and refreshing, however, the spiritual energy here was especially abundant.
The huge doors of the palace were tightly shut, and a golden formation was currently circulating on the door. Countless complicated runes were flowing within it, and even though they were quite a distance away, they could still feel the supreme pressure coming from the formation. It made them feel a little stuffy and short of breath.
"Senior-martial brother, look at this …" The crowd looked at the formation a little helplessly.
Qu Jiang frowned, and turned to look at his unreliable junior-martial brother Qu Qu. "Junior-martial brother Qu, you have always been proficient in formations and runes. Can you tell what kind of formation this is?"
Qu Qu sized up the formation on the door, and after studying it for a long while, he said. "Five Words Chaos Formation. This formation is an ancient formation. The method to enter it can be said to be simple, but it can also be said to be very difficult. "
"What do you mean?" Qu Jiang frowned.
"To be more precise, it requires a correct password." Qu Qu continued. "Only a person recognized by this formation can enter by saying the correct password. Furthermore, this formation cannot be dispelled. If someone were to barge in, their divine sense would definitely be injured by the formation if their cultivation level is lower than the person who laid the formation. If their cultivation level is higher than the person who laid the formation, the formation will immediately activate. The entire Skybond Peak will be destroyed. "
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Did they need a password to enter? This palace had been buried for hundreds of thousands of years. Who would know …
If there really was … Everyone was startled. Suddenly recalling something, they looked towards Zhu Yao one after another.
Why are you looking at me? I don't know either.
"This …" The Sect Master took a step forward, and his attitude instantly became much more respectful. He cupped his fists towards Zhu Yao, yet, he simply could not recall her name, and was momentarily stumped.
"Zhu Yao! She's called Zhu Yao. "Qu Qu jumped out with a proud look, and excitedly said." This is my sister-in-law! "
"…" Sister-in-law my ass!
"The riddle of Skybond Peak was solved by her. She must know the password to open the door." Everyone's eyes lit up. Qu Qu winked at her and said confidently, "Isn't that right, sister-in-law?"
Zhu Yao wanted to give him a kick!
Your sister, what the hell does she know! Who the hell would know what the password was?
"Fellow Daoist Zhu." The Sect Master finally found a suitable form of address. "There's no harm in giving it a try."
Could she reject it?
She glanced at the pairs of ardent and sparkling eyes around her. If she rejected it, she would be beaten to death, right?
Zhu Yao had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward. She glanced at the formation. The password, the password, could it be …
"Open sesame?"
…
No reaction.
Alright, as expected, she was too naive. In this world, the only one called sesame was that beastie. Taking a deep breath, she consecutively tried a few more.
"Alibaba?"
…
"Taobao?"
…
"Ma Yun?"
…
"Ma Huateng?"
…
Ugh!
○ | ̄ | _
I tried my best.
Everyone's excited expressions instantly turned cold.
Qu Jiang pondered for a moment, and then suggested. "Fellow Daoist Zhu, why don't you use the mystic art you used to solve the riddle earlier?"
Earlier?
"…"
Zhu Yao gave a face. Aren't you forcing me to swear? You're the headmaster of Ness Cesary Academy, is it really good to teach students like this?
Left with no choice, she could only take a deep breath, and angrily said. "Cheng Qingdiao, the hell, you bitch, goodbye!"
She shouted three times in succession!
There was still no reaction from the formation on the door. Everyone's faces were already filled with despair.
Zhu Yao suddenly recalled that when this Tycoon Mountain rose earlier, the words on Trueheart Door had disappeared.
Could the password be a simplified version? The last two words that disappeared were …
"Cheng Qingdiao, bitch?"
The moment her words fell, the formation instantly shot out a ray of golden light, directly shining on her arm. Zhu Yao simply felt her hand heating up. She rolled up her sleeves to take a look. An umbrella-shaped pattern suddenly appeared on her arm's neck, and it was even faintly flashing with a golden light.
Before she could even retort, that jeweled door suddenly opened with a loud bang.
The hell, that sentence earlier was really a password. Just what kind of grudge did the owner of this palace have with that Cheng Qingdiao?
That door was not completely opened, it had merely opened up a small crack that allowed a person to pass through. In the next moment, that formation once again emitted out a golden light. Zhu Yao simply felt her body becoming light, and with a flash of white light, she disappeared from where she stood. The door closed with a loud bang as well.
Only the crowd was left in a daze.
When Zhu Yao regained her senses, she was already standing at the center of a great hall.
This great hall was extremely luxurious. Even the floor was paved with white spiritual stones, the surrounding stone pillars were also materials for refining artifacts, and even the light muslin hanging in the hall was … menstrual pads!
No wait, it was the material her master once gave her to make menstrual pads.
Zhu Yao instantly felt that she was unable to look straight at the muslin.
She carefully walked towards the center. Just as she stood at the center of the great hall, a translucent figure suddenly appeared in midair. It was a handsome man with a stern expression. Zhu Yao guessed that this person should be the owner of this mountain.
However, that was merely an image, and did not have a physical body. It should have been left behind by the man before he ascended.
As expected, in the next moment, a deep and solemn male voice resounded in the hall.
"I am Daoist Wang Shang. After searching for the Dao for several tens of thousands of years, I finally managed to peek into the Heavenly Dao, and cultivate to an unparalleled perfection. I have specially left this hall in this world, to those who are fated to obtain it, to benefit the descendants of Xu Yao. This hall contains all the techniques I have learned in my life, three thousand mystic arts, pellets … "
What followed was a large pile of introductions to the topography of Skybond Peak and the usage of various items. Zhu Yao was a little drowsy from listening to him. Summarizing the gist of it, this person called Daoist Wang Shang, was a wealthy nouveau riche when he was alive, and he had collected various rare treasures in the world. After that, he was about to ascend, and these things could no longer be of use to him, so he placed them all here. However, he was afraid that someone else would snatch it from him, so he sealed it and waited for a fated person to be chosen before passing it on.
He hoped that the people who came would make good use of them.
Hearing up to this point, Zhu Yao felt that he was very normal. Because, in most scenarios, powerful practitioners would always do something like this.
Just when he thought that it was just the usual plot of these cultivation novels and that there was nothing new, the man in the image suddenly changed his tone. His tone became angry and agitated.
"Anyone who enters this hall must remember one thing. Do not befriend people from the Wind Riding Sect. If you see people from this sect, you must kill them. To think that I, Wang Shang, have cultivated for tens of thousands of years and traversed the cultivation world unhindered. I was only deceived by Cheng Qingdiao, the Wind Resistance Sect Master. This person is treacherous and cunning, he's worse than pigs and dogs … "
Eh, isn't Cheng Qingdiao the person on the password? There's hope! Zhu Yao's expression shook, and her gossip mode was instantly activated.
"Back then, when I got to know her during the Azoth Core stage, when I saw that she had a weak personality, I instantly felt pity for her. I protected her for thousands of years, and was wholeheartedly devoted to her. I had never once been disloyal. No matter if she encountered danger in a secret realm, had difficulties in her cultivation, or was troubled by a heretic practitioner, I would go through fire and water to protect her. I was afraid that she would suffer even the slightest bit of bullying or grievance. "
Yo, so it was actually a love story. It seemed like this girl Cheng Qingdiao, had betrayed him in the end.
"For her, I was willing to reject my childhood sweetheart junior-martial sister, and be despised by my master, in order to be together with her. I wandered outside for exactly two hundred years, unable to return to the sect, yet, I never had a single word of complaint. And, in order to be together with her openly, a heart demon had nearly been born. "
It seemed like he was still an infatuated type.
"After narrowly escaping death, I successfully formed my Nascent Soul, only then did I receive my master's forgiveness and return to the sect. In order to gain her favor, I even gathered various mystic artifacts and pellets from all over the place, hoping that she would smile at me. For thousands of years, I guarded her without leaving her side. Because of a single sentence from her, I never took in a single disciple, and did not even have a successor. "
The man's voice grew even sharper.
"And because she didn't like others to know about our relationship, she had always hidden it from the world. She worked hard to cultivate into a Demigod. With the identity of a Demigod Sovereign, I proposed to her with the utmost sincerity … "
Zhu Yao's heart sank, as she faintly guessed the ending. This guy must have been rejected, right? And then, his love turned into hatred or something?
As expected, Daoist Wang Shang's voice grew even louder, to the point of roaring.
"This old man had thought that the reason why she didn't want others to know was because she was afraid of implicating me. Who would have thought that this old man would happily propose to her. He even took off his pants, and he actually told me that he's a man! Momma's egg, he's actually a man! "
"Uh …"
"The hell, can you even understand? The person this old man has been longing for for thousands of years, is actually a goddamn man! Can any of you understand this old man's heartbreak? Where's the most basic trust between people? This old man feels like I've been made a fool of by the entire world. Cheng Qingdiao, you motherf * cking bitch! This old man will never forgive you for my entire life! Even if you turn into ashes, I will blow you to pieces! Bitch, bitch, bastard … "
Zhu Yao listened to the furious curses with a dumbfounded expression. She felt as though she was in Sparta.
From the looks of it … It was completely understandable for this bastard to set down those curses that sounded like vulgarities.
Zhu Yao listened to the image's curses for exactly two hours, and not a single word was repeated? Even Zhu Yao wanted to exclaim at how good his language skills were! It was no wonder even the password to enter the door was so fresh and refined.
After the image finally had his fill of cursing, that otherworldly aura earlier had already completely disappeared. What was left was an image of a boorish "man" panting heavily with his hands on his hips. Without any image to speak of, he waved his hand in the air and said. "Wait a moment, let me catch my breath."
