"It's going to be ten years soon. I should go back …"
On a mountain peak on a planet in the Skyriver Sector, the Fifth Grand Elder slowly opened his eyes and murmured. When Chen Hao stepped into the secret grotto-heaven, he had left the Hunyuan Sect immediately. He, the Sixth Grand Elder, and the Seventh Grand Elder became the first group of people from the Hunyuan Sect to comprehend the profound meaning of nirvana. However, he had to go back at this time. To the Fifth Grand Elder, his successor was even more important than himself. Even if a cultivator reached the Dao Severing Perfected Immortal Realm, his life was not truly eternal. His lifespan was ultimately limited. However, he didn't even leave behind his legacy. That was too sad.
After sending out a wisp of Divine Consciousness to inform the Fifth Grand Elder, he turned into a stream of light, tore through the space barrier, and left at lightning speed.
…
"Phew …"
In the depths of the Fifth Grand Elder's palace, Tian Wanxiang slowly opened his eyes when the ten-year period was almost up. He looked excited. For him to be able to cultivate here, it was undoubtedly because of his precious disciple.
"The cave abode of a Dao Severing Perfected Immortal is so cool … Could it be that I can break through to the Dao Severing Perfected Immortal Realm in my lifetime? Hahaha … My disciple is coming out soon. The Fifth Grand Elder should be back soon too! "
Tian Wanxiang did not know where the Fifth Grand Elder had gone. He only knew that the Fifth Grand Elder would rush back when the ten-year period was up.
The two of them would definitely go to the sacred land of the immortal sutra to watch Li Mubai's final battle. Stepping into the sacred land of the immortal sutra was undoubtedly what they wanted to see the most. Although the hope was a little slim, it was not impossible.
…
Swish!
"Greetings, Saint Envoy!"
In the wee hours of the morning, the Hunyuan Sect's secret grotto-heaven once again welcomed the once-in-a-decade opening day. As usual, the Saint Envoy arrived at the entrance of the secret grotto-heaven a few hours in advance and bowed to the five elders. The elders only nodded slightly and sat down cross-legged as they did in the past. They slowly closed their eyes. They did not seem to care about the increasing number of Hunyuan Sect disciples.
The five elders had experienced countless worlds and had long understood the Saint Envoy's character. He would not say a word to them. Therefore, he patiently waited for noon to arrive.
The new 30 names to enter the Heavenly Passage mystic realm had already been announced. Just as the five Elders had speculated, the Sect Master's list of names was more biased towards the newcomers with potential. But, the truly powerful seeded contestants hadn't been given up. This was something that couldn't be helped. At the very least, the seeded contestants would still be able to display their superior combat strength in the final competition, even if they were eliminated …
"I wonder how strong Li Mubai will be after he comes out of the Grotto-Heaven. It really makes me curious! "
"Who knows? However, no matter how strong he is, he can't be that strong. After all, his foundation is still lacking …"
What was different from the previous years was that this time, the cultivators who were watching were not talking about the 30 top geniuses who were about to enter, but about Li Mubai who was about to come out. This was understandable. After all, Li Mubai's sudden rise was too eye-catching.
The five elders shook their heads when they heard the discussions of the disciples. They knew very well what kind of sensation Li Mubai would cause after he came out!
No one would be able to stop his rise, his true rise!
What did it mean to be in the Demonic Realm for more than 600 years? Moreover, he was someone who had obtained a powerful Immortal Fate …
Of course, this was the conclusion of the five elders.
"Eh?"
What surprised the five elders was that the statue-like Saint, who usually didn't have any reaction before the opening of the Grotto-Heaven, suddenly exclaimed and frowned.
"Saint …"
"Interesting …" The elder muttered to himself. Then, he looked at the five elders and said, "Did you notice that he was in the Demonic Realm?"
"Ah … Saint, we … noticed it earlier and paid attention to it a few times later. Could it be that he was still in the Demonic Realm?" The five Elders were extremely shocked. All along, they did not think that the Divine Emissary could sense the situation in the Grotto-Heaven. But now, they suddenly understood why the Divine Emissary would always come a few hours earlier. Why the Divine Emissary would only take a few glances at the thirty people who came out and finish selecting them. It turned out that the Grotto-Heaven, which contained the most profound mysteries and was isolated from the Laws of Space and Time, which even they had to use their tokens to check, couldn't escape the Saint's senses.
"Oh? You mean … this little fellow has been in the Demonic Realm many times? "
"This … When we first noticed it, we paid attention to it for a few days. He had been immersed in the Demonic Realm … Later, we checked a few times and he was still in the Demonic Realm …"
Hearing the elder's words, the elder's narrowed eyes suddenly opened a little. "A few days? Are you talking about inside or outside? "
"Outside …"
"After that, we didn't want to disturb the other disciples' cultivation. We checked a few times and they were all in the Demonic Realm, so we stopped paying attention to it … I didn't expect … it was still …" The elder deliberately hid the truth. After all, this definitely involved the Hunyuan Sect's top secret. They would rather play dumb than let others know that they had discovered the secret.
"Then you mean that this little fellow might have been immersed in the Demonic Realm all this time?" The elder's eyes widened even more.
"It's possible … It should be …"
"Amazing! Congratulations, the Hunyuan Sect has produced a true genius! And he must be a genius who is fated with the Immortal Sutra! Very good … very good! "
What shocked the five elders was that the sacred envoy actually said such a thing. What did that mean? It meant that Li Mubai's comprehension of the Pagoda Stele's dao marks in the Demonic Realm was extremely shocking! That also meant that when he kept going deeper, it was not purely to devour the Heaven and Earth spirit qi to refine his body!
The five elders were shocked. This was something that they could not tell at all …
But the sacred envoy had no reason to lie.
"What is that little fellow's name?"
"Li Mubai, the successor that the Fifth Grand Elder accepted ten years ago …"
"I do remember. But I didn't pay attention to his name. The little girl who was with him participated a few times. Her name is Nguyễn Thanh Lan. Hmm, her progress this time is also very shocking … Not bad, not bad! "The elder closed his eyes after saying that. Clearly, he did not have the desire to continue speaking.
But at this time, the five elders knew that the sacred envoy must have started sensing the situation inside again.
The surrounding cultivators could not hear the six's conversation at all. They only saw the old sacred envoy, who had never spoken, seemed to be saying something to the five elders. But they did not think too much about it.
Chi chi chi …
When noon was about to arrive, the thirty experts who were going to enter arrived almost at the same time. All of them were valiant and high-spirited. Especially the seven new faces, they could not hide the excitement on their faces. Until now, they were all overwhelmed by the unexpected favor. Because, they did not think that they would be qualified to enter the grotto-heaven this time.
