Outside the Heaven-reaching Secret Land, on the Heaven-reaching Peak of the Xuanji Empire, there were less than 20 seniors and elders who were waiting for their disciples to come out of the Heaven-reaching Palace. They all looked up at the sky at the same time!
Just a moment ago, the sky was abnormally clear with the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, but in an instant, it suddenly became dark and gloomy. What was strange was that the gloomy weather this time was different from before. Within sight, the entire world seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds.
Many seniors and elders were surprised to see such weather, but they were not surprised. The world was so big that there were all kinds of strange things, let alone strange weather.
Only the silver-haired old man with the Star Crown, who had the highest cultivation here, looked at the sky strangely. He faintly sensed the strange pressure!
However, at this time, the silver-haired old man with the Star Crown didn't pay much attention to the abnormal weather. Instead, he used a victorious gaze to size up the less than twenty elders from the various sects and clans in front of him.
That kind of worry, that kind of hesitation while holding the Soul Jade Token to see the life and death of his disciples, gave him a special kind of pleasure, the pleasure of being superior. In front of these sect leaders who were worried about their lives, he had a strong sense of superiority!
Their Hidden Star Palace never had to worry about the life and death of their disciples. The only thing they cared about was how much their disciples had gained on this trip and whether they could get the important Star Reiki. If they could get the Star Reiki, maybe in one or two years, they would have another Gang Spirit Realm expert!
"Humph, look at the attitude of you leaders. I know what your disciples are like. You want to enter the Heaven-reaching Palace to seek treasures and grab the Star Reiki? You're more like throwing your lives away!"
When a long cry of pain interrupted the thoughts of the old man with the star crown, the silver-haired old man with the star crown looked at the martial practitioner who was crying while holding the soul jade and didn't hide his disdain.
The way he looked at the other martial artists was like looking at ants without any status. "If you want to make a fortune, you have to be prepared to die!"
The cultivator who was mocked did not even dare to say a word to this silver-haired old man from the Hidden World Star Palace. He glared at him angrily before descending the mountain in a daze!
As for Head Master Chu Fangyue, who was seated not far away, her heart was beating like a drum. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't nervous. At this moment, Chu Fangyue was more nervous than anyone else!
Three days ago, Chu Fangyue mustered up her courage and took a look at the soul jade. That lively red dot made Chu Fangyue wild with joy.
Alive! The three disciples from True Astral Sect who entered Connecting Heaven Palace were all alive. This was unprecedented. Chu Fangyue was looking forward to Ling Dong and the rest's harvest. Being able to survive until now, they must have gained something, right?
As the saying goes, the more you look forward to it, the more nervous you get. Because the trip to Connecting Heaven Palace was nearing its end, Chu Fangyue was so nervous that she didn't dare to look at the soul jade again. She was afraid that if she did, one of the red dots representing the lives of the disciples would be destroyed. This worry made Chu Fangyue caress the soul jade non-stop for three days, but she didn't dare to look at it again!
"Rumble …" At this moment, the faint sound of thunder suddenly came from the sky. The faint sound of thunder was extremely loud, making everyone feel their blood boil.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
At this moment of thunder, the place where the Gate of Heaven was originally open suddenly flashed intensely. Every time it flashed, a martial artist would come out from there. Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to these martial artists who had survived.
However, the leaders of the various sects were immediately disappointed. This was because the four martial artists who had returned were all wearing the same Star Crown and silver Daoist robes. The leader was a young man who looked even more impressive. With one look at this attire, everyone understood that the first to return this time were the disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace again.
According to past practice, the first batch of martial artists to come out alive were usually the martial artists who returned with the treasures. In other words, the treasures in Connecting Heaven Palace this time might belong to the Hidden World Star Palace.
This meant that the disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace had returned victorious!
This deduction made everyone heave a sigh of relief. Their hanging hearts were also put down. In their opinion, it was normal for the disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace to obtain the treasures in Connecting Heaven Palace. After all, they had always been the ones to take all the treasures.
If the treasures were unfortunately taken by other sects, they wouldn't be able to accept it and would be mad with jealousy.
Seeing that the first batch of martial artists to come out of Connecting Heaven Palace were the disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace, Chu Fangyue also vaguely felt that the treasures this time must have been taken by the Hidden World Star Palace. In addition to being disappointed, he was also very happy. Just now, he had secretly glanced at the soul jade and found that the three red dots of his disciples were still alive and kicking.
Just as Patriarch Stargazer had said, returning alive was the most important thing! And if these three disciples returned alive, they would definitely become the pillars of the entire sect.
Just as everyone was staring at the Gate of Heaven, waiting for the other disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace to come out, the flickering brilliance on the Gate of Heaven suddenly stopped flickering. This discovery shocked everyone. Could it be that the Hidden World Star Palace only had four martial artists who came out alive this time?
While everyone was guessing, the silver-haired old man with the Star Crown was smiling and stroking his beard, waiting for his disciples to report the results of this trip. His expression suddenly changed and his smile froze because he also saw that the Gate of Heaven had stopped flickering.
"Where are the others?" The silver-haired old man with the Star Crown asked quickly. He suddenly had a bad feeling. Not only did the Gate of Heaven stop flickering, but he also found that the faces of his disciples showed no signs of victory at all. All of them were unusually solemn.
"Martial Uncle, the other junior brothers are …" Jian Qingxuan, who had just come out of the Connecting Heaven Palace, suddenly didn't dare to say the news himself. He was afraid that his Martial Uncle Xiao would kill him.
Only he knew how precious the ten chosen disciples to enter the Connecting Heaven Palace were. In terms of age and seniority, the ten of them were all the thirty-seventh generation disciples of the Hidden World Star Palace. However, in reality, the identities of these ten people were all the thirty-fourth generation disciples, second only to the current Palace Master and the Protector. All ten of them were the personal disciples of the current Palace Master and the Protector. Now, more than half of them had died!
"What? Speak clearly! "The silver-haired old man with the Star Crown surnamed Xiao's eyebrows were raised and his face was instantly livid. Perhaps because Jian Qingxuan was frightened, he didn't answer for a moment.
The furious Martial Uncle Xiao suddenly remembered. Didn't he have the soul jade left behind by the disciples who went in? Wouldn't he know at a glance? He hurriedly took it out from his Yin and Yang Ring.
He wouldn't know if he didn't look, but when he did, he was shocked! Martial Uncle Xiao's scalp went numb and his hands went soft!
Six of the ten red dots on the palm-sized soul jade had disappeared. Only four red dots were still flashing on the soul jade. And the four living Hidden World Star Palace disciples standing in front of him were those four red dots!
"Pa!"
His hand trembled and the soul jade in Xiao Shishu's hand fell to the ground. With a crisp sound, it shattered into pieces. Xiao Shishu seemed to have lost his soul. "Qing Xuan, where are the others? All … all gone? " Martial Uncle Xiao asked again in disbelief. It seemed like he wanted to hear Jian Qingxuan's answer to be sure!
"Martial Uncle, the other six Junior Brothers are all … gone!" Jian Qingxuan did not know how much courage he had to muster to say these words.
"What about the Star Crystal?" Suppressing his anger that was like a volcano that was about to erupt, Martial Uncle Xiao asked again.
Hearing Martial Uncle Xiao's question, Jian Qingxuan lowered his head and replied in an inaudible voice, "I didn't get it …"
Hearing Jian Qingxuan's words, Martial Uncle Xiao's silver beard stood up. His aura surged and his robe suddenly puffed up. A fierce aura seeped out!
"Bastard, how did you, the eldest senior brother, lead the team? The junior brothers are all dead, why didn't you come back alive! I'll chop you alive! " As he shouted angrily, he raised his palm. A brilliance that resembled a silver knife extended from Martial Uncle Xiao's palm. As if responding to his agitated emotions, the silver energy on his palm shuttled about chaotically with a 'chi chi chi' sound!
"Martial Uncle, please calm down!" Seeing this situation, the four Hidden World Star Palace disciples didn't dare to stand on the spot anymore. They suddenly knelt in front of Martial Uncle Xiao and begged for mercy. Their faces were filled with fear.
The brilliant performance of the people from the Hidden World Star Palace had attracted the attention of the leaders of the other sects who had yet to leave. In addition, this Martial Uncle Xiao did not care about others at all. After a few more guesses, they understood everything!
The insufferably arrogant Hidden World Star Palace disciples were unexpectedly snubbed in this trip to Connecting Heaven Palace. Not to mention the loss of more than half of their disciples, they didn't even get the treasure.
This was really strange!
Aside from being surprised, the leaders of the various sects and clans who had had enough of this Martial Uncle Xiao looking down on them with his nose started to gloat. Of course, it was only in their hearts. No one dared to show it on their faces!
"Even your Hidden World Star Palace has such a day?"
"You deserve it!"
.....
At the same time as the numerous martial artists were cursing in their hearts, another major event happened on Heaven Connecting Peak!
First, an elder of the Kuixing Pavilion looked at the miserable state of the Hidden World Star Palace and thoughtfully took out the soul jades that were connected to the ten disciples of his sect who entered Connecting Heaven Palace.
With just a glance, he was shocked!
"How could this be? So many were lost? How could this be? " The elder of the Kuixing Pavilion exclaimed. His hands were shaking because there were only four red dots on the soul jades!
How could this be? The Kuixing Pavilion, which had always been low-key, had not lost so many disciples in the last ten years!
"Ah …" When the elder of the Kuixing Pavilion exclaimed, a middle-aged man in white who came from the Wang You Palace stared at the soul jades in his hands in shock. There was only one red dot left on the soul jades. He looked up to the sky and screamed before fainting on the ground in pain!
The unexpected situation of the Hidden World Star Palace, Forgotten Worries Palace, and Kuixing Pavilion, the three former overlords, however, made many warriors who had not yet left feel a lot more balanced psychologically. They even felt a sense of relief.
But doubts crept into their hearts again. "Two Palaces and One Pavilion, the three Overlords have suffered such heavy losses. Who picked up this opportunity?"
"Tell me, what happened on this trip?" Seeing that the Kuixing Pavilion had also suffered heavy losses, and the Wang You Palace was left with only a single commander, Master Xiao of the Hidden World Star Palace was less angry. He asked Jian Qingxuan again!
Hearing this, Jian Qingxuan's face lit up. He had been waiting for this sentence! As long as Master Xiao asked, he would tell him the ins and outs of the matter, and then tell him his plan. It was called a crime turned into a merit.
The Star Reiki and at least two or three Precious Weapons of Heaven and Earth that he knew of. Wasn't that a great merit? Not to mention, he also had an even more important piece of information!
"Master Xiao, it's like this …"
"Rumble …" Just as Jian Qingxuan was about to speak, a deafening thunder exploded. When the sound echoed in everyone's ears, silver snakes began to dance in the sky!
