Perhaps it was because Ancestor Stargazer's third goal or wish was so unexpected, but when they came out of Ancestor Stargazer's place, the atmosphere was a little quiet. Ling Dong, Qiu Qingyi, and Tu Bai all had their heads lowered, as if they were thinking about something.
"Why? Do you think the Ancestral Master is exaggerating to scare you?" Chu Fangyue reprimanded his three disciples, especially his own disciple, Tu Bai, when he saw the puzzled look on his face.
"I'm not afraid to let you know. Our True Gang Sect has existed for more than a thousand years. We sent more than sixty disciples to enter the Sky Reaching Realm eleven times, but only nine of them survived!" Hearing Chu Fangyue's words, Ling Dong, Tu Bai, and Qiu Qingyi raised their eyebrows in surprise.
Even though Ling Dong already knew that the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land was dangerous and that there was a seventy to eighty percent chance of death, Ling Dong did not expect Chu Fangyue to say that the survival rate of True Gang Sect's disciples was less than one-fifth.
While the three of them were still in shock, Chu Fangyue continued, "Among the nine who survived, only three of them survived in one piece. The other six were either crippled or crippled.
To tell you the truth, Ancestor Stargazer and … He Wanshan, who was killed by Ling Dong a few days ago, are all complete survivors. Any martial artist who survives the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land will have a great improvement in their cultivation after they return. "
"Sigh, to tell you the truth, my grandfather participated in the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land 120 years ago. After he returned, his cultivation was completely crippled and he became a cripple. Fortunately, my grandfather brought back a few Formation Incantations. However, it was these Formation Incantations that allowed my Zhang Family to become the Peak Master of True Gang Sect's Hundred Formation Peak!" Zhang Bingzheng added, as if to prove the truth of Chu Fangyue's words.
Without waiting for Ling Dong and the other two to respond, Chu Fangyue continued, "I won't hide it from you. In the past, seven out of the eleven times my True Gang Sect participated in the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land were just cannon fodder."
As he spoke, Chu Fangyue cast a sidelong glance at his disciples, Tu Bai, Ling Dong, and the other two. Seeing their astonished expressions, he was satisfied and said, "Do you know what it means to send cannon fodder to make up the numbers? Even if you know you will die, you will still send a few disciples to try your luck in the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land. Of course, you three are disciples with ordinary cultivation.
Even the three of you. If it wasn't for Ling Dong's extraordinary display of strength during the Grand Competition, I'm afraid that I wouldn't have sent you guys. I would have sent some cannon fodder to try my luck. "
Chu Fangyue's words made the three people's hearts were unusually cold. These words reduced Ling Dong's optimism about his trip to the Heaven Reaching Mystic Realm by 30%.
Seeing that his words had the desired effect, Chu Fangyue continued, "In this trip to the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land, after entering the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land, Ling Dong will be in charge. If you are lucky enough to meet up with him, you will listen to Ling Dong on all matters, hmm?" While saying this, Chu Fangyue's gaze was fixed on his disciple, Tu Bai. Obviously, Chu Fangyue was a little worried about this proud disciple of the Sect Master's.
Tu Bai was also a clever person. Seeing this scene, he naturally understood Chu Fangyue's meaning. He hurriedly nodded and said, "Master, don't worry. This disciple will definitely obey the orders of the Deputy Palace Master. That day, the Deputy Palace Master displayed his invincible power and killed He Wanshan. This disciple has already been convinced.
Tu Bai was originally Chu Fangyue's proud disciple. After He Zhaixing's death, the possibility of him inheriting the True Gang Sect was very high. However, unexpectedly, Ling Dong appeared out of nowhere. Tu Bai's words were a disguised acknowledgment of Ling Dong's position. At this time, Chu Fangyue was also dispelling the possible conflicts between Ling Dong, Qiu Qingyi, and Tu Bai's team.
Seeing that Tu Bai was so sensible, Chu Fangyue was naturally very happy. Chu Fangyue's original plan was that if Tu Bai showed any signs of dissatisfaction, she would immediately replace him. In the Sky-Reaching Mystic Realm, where one's life was at stake, if the fellow disciples were not united, it would definitely be a disaster.
"Sect Leader, in this case, let's hurry to the Teleportation Hall. Compared to usual, we are already late!" Zhang Bingzheng suddenly urged.
It was also at this time that Ling Dong knew that it was not only the three of them going to the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land, but also Zhang Bingzheng and Chu Fangyue, Head Leader Chu. These two people were going with them.
Therefore, the group hurried to another forbidden area of the True Gang Sect, the Teleportation Hall. On the way, Ling Dong was thinking about the special instructions that Ancestor Stargazer had given him before he left.
Ancestor Stargazer had told him to try his best to get one thing in the Heaven Reaching Arcane Land. This was not strange to Ling Dong. What was strange was that Ancestor Stargazer had told Ling Dong to protect Qiu Qingyi as much as possible. He had to make sure that Qiu Qingyi came back alive. Moreover, he had better bring Qiu Qingyi along when he took that treasure.
Of course, protecting Qiu Qingyi was something that Ling Dong had to do. However, Ling Dong did not understand why Ancestor Stargazer had deliberately told him to do so. His beautiful master, Qiu Qingyi's identity seemed to be very unusual.
.....
The Teleportation Hall of the True Gang Sect was actually where the Teleportation Formation was located. There was a super-large Teleportation Formation inside, occupying an area of four to five rooms.
"Now, the five of us will use the Teleportation Formation to directly teleport to the Heaven Reaching Town of the Xuanji Empire, and then to the Heaven Reaching Peak. Remember, during the process of teleportation, do not use Gang Qi casually. Otherwise, it will bring unknown danger!" Chu Fangyue instructed, and Zhang Bingzheng quickly set up the crystals on the Teleportation Formation.
Even with Zhang Bingzheng's skills as a peak master, it still took him less than an hour to set up the crystals of the Teleportation Formation. As he did so, he said, "Why, is this your first time using the Teleportation Formation? Don't think that using this Teleportation Formation is easy. The consumption is not something that ordinary people can afford. For example, the long-distance teleportation that we are using this time will consume 100 mid-grade crystals and one upper-grade crystal. Ordinary people really can't afford it. "
"Alright, close your eyes and guard your mind. Conceal your spirit and qi. No matter what happens, don't move. I'm going to activate the Teleportation Formation. " The moment Zhang Bingzheng's Xu Yin landed on the ground, Ling Dong felt his body being tightly wrapped by a ball of gentle and vigorous energy. After that, a terrifying energy wave started to rise beside him, and a feeling of dizziness assaulted his entire body ….
It seemed like an instant, but also like a long time had passed. Ling Dong suddenly felt the bottom of his feet stop, and the gentle and vigorous energy that enveloped him receded like the tide. Ling Dong's expression became serious. As he circulated his Gang Qi, he forcibly suppressed the nauseating feeling in his body.
Ling Dong had sat in this Teleportation Formation several times in his previous life, so he was more familiar with the dizziness. Since he was already prepared, the discomfort disappeared in an instant.
After opening his eyes, Ling Dong didn't look around at the first moment. Instead, he looked at Qiu Qingyi, wanting to see if she was feeling uncomfortable. What surprised Ling Dong was that Qiu Qingyi was also looking at him with a surprised expression. On the contrary, Tu Bai, who was ignored by everyone, rushed out of the Teleportation Formation with a cry and started vomiting.
"What a good-for-nothing. You're just sitting in a Teleportation Formation and you're still so cowardly …" Chu Fangyue couldn't help but scold Tu Bai when he saw that Ling Dong and Qiu Qingyi were fine.
"Forget it, Sect Master. Back then, you weren't as good as Little White …" While Chu Fangyue was reprimanding him, Zhang Bingzheng continued Chu Fangyue's story about Great Sect Master Chu. When Chu Fangyue glared at him with dissatisfaction, Zhang Bingzheng changed the topic and said, "Little White, spit it out. Drink some water, circulate your Gang Qi and walk around. You'll be fine.
At this time, Ling Dong looked around. The teleportation array here seemed to be a public square. It was completely paved with fiery-red stones. At the head of the public square, there were two cultivators sitting lazily, but there was no one else around.
"This is Heaven Reaching Town. There are still two days before the Heaven Reaching Secret Land opens, and one day to reach Heaven Reaching Peak. I'm afraid our True Gang Sect is the last to arrive …"
"That's right. Your True Gang Sect isn't the last to arrive, but you'll always be the last." As the teleportation formation flashed, another group of people walked out of it. As they walked out, a mocking voice was heard.
Chu Fangyue, who was talking, turned his head, and a trace of anger appeared on his face. "Hmph, Kai Yang Sect, why are you guys everywhere? Wu Potao, after so many years, why haven't you been struck by lightning yet? "
That tall martial artist named Wu Potao, who came out first, spat out a mouthful of saliva and scolded, "Chu Fangyue, you stinking bug, why haven't you died yet … Heh, you sent some useless disciples to be cannon fodder again. Look at this person, vomiting like this. His legs must be weak, right? Tsk, tsk, tsk, a disciple of Xiantian Realm Level Seven. Only your True Gang Sect is thick-skinned enough to send such a disciple to participate in the Heaven Reaching Secret Land Meeting. This cannon fodder is really unique! "
After saying this, Wu Potao passed by Ling Dong and suddenly said to Ling Dong, "Well, little brother, I don't know what you did in True Gang Sect to be sent here as cannon fodder by this group of insidious people. Let this old man give you a warning, don't be harmed by them. Oh, is it because you stole the Sect Master's wife, and they took revenge on you? Hahahaha …"
After he finished provoking Chu Fangyue, Wu Potao didn't wait for Chu Fangyue to retort before his expression went grim, and he suddenly sneered coldly, "A bunch of trash. All of you, remember this well. Don't hesitate to attack them if you encounter them. Chop them to death for this old man!" After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Chu Fangyue to retort before leading his group away.
Chu Fangyue, on the other hand, stood there with an ashen face, his eyes full of killing intent.
"Master, I'm sorry, this disciple has embarrassed you!" Tu Bai, who was vomiting, walked to Chu Fangyue with a face full of shame and knelt on one knee to admit his mistake.
Seeing her like this, Ling Dong didn't try to persuade her. Ling Dong just stared at the two young men and two young women among the six people who had just passed by from afar. He memorized their appearances and figures.
The atmosphere was a bit heavy for a moment. Chu Fangyue didn't say anything and just let Tu Bai kneel there, making everyone feel very uncomfortable.
Just as Qiu Qingyi was about to summon her courage to break the silence of the morning, Chu Fangyue suddenly laughed loudly.
"Hahahaha … good, good scolding, good scolding!" Chu Fangyue's laughter made everyone confused.
While laughing, Chu Fangyue helped Tu Bai up and said, "Tu Bai, it's none of your business. It's just a grudge between the sects. They scolded you well today. They looked down on your cultivation, which is absolutely good. Ling Dong, Qingyi, Little Bai, remember, when you enter the Heaven-reaching Secret Land the day after tomorrow, if you meet the disciples of the Kaiyang Sect just now, you must kill them for me. It's better to bring their heads to me so that I can vent my anger. "
"Don't worry, Sect Leader. I've already memorized their faces. If they really meet a small fry like me, I believe I'll give them a surprise!" Ling Dong was now the Vice Palace Leader of True Gang Sect, which meant that he was the successor of the Sect Leader.
And according to Ancestor Stargazer, if he could bring back that thing on this trip, the current Master of the True Gang Sect, Chu Fangyue, would retire to cultivate in seclusion and break through to the Gang Spirit Realm in a few years. Then the True Gang Sect would be handed over to Ling Dong.
Now that someone insulted the True Gang Sect, it was equivalent to insulting Ling Dong. How could Ling Dong not do something?
"Well, you must give them a few more surprises!" Chu Fangyue patted Ling Dong's shoulder and said vigorously.
When they left the Transmitting Formation Square, Chu Fangyue paid 50 pieces of Medium Grade Crystal to the two military officers guarding here, which was the fee for using the Transmitting Formation here. Then, they naturally walked to the Heaven-reaching Peak. Two days later, the entrance to the Heaven-reaching Secret Land would appear on the peak.
Along the way, Chu Fangyue also told Ling Dong and others about the grudge between the True Gang Sect and the Kaiyang Sect.
The Kaiyang Sect and the True Gang Sect were both first-class sects in the Kaiyang Ancient Country. In terms of strength, the Kaiyang Sect and the True Gang Sect were equally matched. However, the Kaiyang Sect had a very good relationship with the government of the Kaiyang Ancient Country. In several battles for mineral resources deep in the mountains, the True Gang Sect always had the upper hand.
However, the Kaiyang Sect's power in the secular world was extremely great. Because of this, the True Gang Sect's industry in the Kaiyang Ancient Country was greatly affected. The two sides had a very deep grudge that had been accumulating for many years. It was said that the Stargazer Ancestor once single-handedly killed his way into the Kaiyang Sect's mountain gate and started a massacre.
Thus, Chu Fangyue had such a request.
Aside from some unpleasantness when they first met Wu Potao of the Kaiyang Sect, the rest of the journey was extremely peaceful and did not encounter any trouble.
After traveling for half a day, when the sun was setting in the west, Chu Fangyue suddenly pointed at a mountain peak in the distance that pierced the sky and said: "That is the Heaven-reaching Peak. The day after tomorrow, you will enter the Heaven-reaching Peak from there. Put in more effort, there is an inn halfway up the mountain. We will rest there!"
Looking at the mountain peak that pierced the sky, Ling Dong suddenly had a feeling of anticipation. He wanted to enter the Heaven-reaching Secret Land as soon as possible because Ling Dong felt that he was the king in this dangerous environment.
