728 -726: Only Those Who Possess Longevity Can Enter!
“Long Sihai, dare to touch my things, and I will exterminate your nine clans!”
A chilling voice suddenly came.
Only to see the void next to Xiao Yi abruptly tore open by a pair of large hands as Yue Shanchuan followed by an elder with white hair holding two brown walnuts, appeared beside Xiao Yi.
“Elder Yue?”
Xiao Yi and Little Lin both were startled.
Yue Shanchuan winked at the two of them and made a reassuring gesture towards the white-haired elder beside him.
Long Sihai’s pupils shrank slightly as he stared at the white-haired elder in front of him, a solemn look on his face.
This white-haired elder was a master of the Earth Venerate Realm, a Fifth Layer Earth Revered at that, the one with the strongest cultivation present.
In addition, he also had another identity – he was one of the Changsheng Sect’s thirty-six Elder Tiangangs, Elder Tianku.
As far as the world knew about the Changsheng Sect, there were a total of thirty-six Elder Tiangangs and seventy-two Earthshatter Elders.
Elder Tianku was ranked thirty-fifth.
He was also among the most frequently seen of the Changsheng Sect’s one hundred and eight elders in the world.
Fifth Layer Earth Revered!
His combat power was certainly top-tier.
“Elder Tianku of the Changsheng Sect?”
Long Sihai stared at Elder Tianku, his gaze slowly falling on Xiao Yi, “Who would have thought that Xiao Zhenguo of the Daqian Dynasty, of such noble stature, would have such close ties with a heretic.
Truly unexpected!”
The Nantian sacred land had just issued the Heaven-South Pursuit Order in Southern State.
Both the Daqian Dynasty and the Nantian Dynasty were after the heretics of the Changsheng Sect.
Up to now…
The heretics that the Nantian Dynasty had executed or captured were already in the dozens, while the Daqian Dynasty had not caught a single one.
This had greatly dissatisfied the Nantian sacred land, and if they were to find out that Xiao Yi fraternized with the heretics of the Changsheng Sect, the Nantian sacred land would surely mete out punishment.
It was exactly what Long Sihai had guessed.
Elder Tianku gave a cold laugh and said indifferently, “Xiao Zhenguo once saved my useless grandson.
I, this old man, cannot fail to repay such a life-saving grace.”
With this statement, he clarified why he helped Xiao Yi, made his determination to protect Xiao Yi known, and distinguished Xiao Yi’s relationship with the Changsheng Sect from the heretics.
Long Sihai’s face turned as black as coal.
He had not expected that his carefully laid plans to entrap Xiao Yi would be so casually resolved by a single comment from Elder Tianku.
After all, even the Nantian sacred land could not fault Xiao Yi for Elder Tianku repaying a favor, thus taking their ire out on the Daqian Dynasty.
Xiao Yi also understood the crux of the matter, and he clasped his hands towards Elder Tianku, “Thank you, senior!”
“Young friend, there’s no need for such formality!”
Elder Tianku’s walnuts gently spun in his hand, his face wearing a faint smile, “If it were not for your timely assistance on Gold Field Island, Shanchuan, this blockhead, would have perished there!”
Blockhead?
Xiao Yi was taken aback and looked towards Yue Shanchuan.
Yue Shanchuan’s face darkened, and he said in frustration, “Great-Grandfather, shall we take a look at the Cloud Dream Temple first?”
Elder Tianku smiled and said, “There’s no rush, the real decision-makers have yet to show themselves!
It’s not urgent now…”
“Decision-makers?”
Yue Shanchuan was startled.
Xiao Yi’s eyes flickered as he stroked his chin, deep in thought.
About half an incense stick of time later.
Several fluctuations once again came through the void, and two figures appeared consecutively on the edge of Yunmeng Marsh.
It was none other than the commander of the forbidden army, the formidable Fourth Layer Earth Revered, Nantian Lie.
And the Nantian sacred land’s Yang Dingtian!
Yang Dingtian’s gaze instantly fell on Elder Tianku, releasing an incredibly terrifying energy fluctuation all around him.
His eyes, as bright as stars, and his fighting spirit were fully unleashed in an instant, “Tianku, I’ve looked so hard for you, I never expected to encounter you here.
Luck really does favor the persistent!”
“Yang Dingtian, do you think it’s appropriate to make a move now?” Elder Tianku said with neither servility nor overbearingness.
Yang Dingtian’s brows knitted slightly.
He scanned his surroundings.
Indeed, as Elder Tianku said, with the convergence of powerful figures from various factions, there were no less than four Earth Venerate Realm powerhouses and over a hundred Human Venerate Realm powerhouses.
The gathering was teeming with mixed forces.
Acting now and if others took the opportunity to enter the Cloud Dream Temple, that would truly be a loss not worth the gain.
With this thought in mind.
Yang Dingtian took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and said with a heavy voice, “Hmph, consider yourself lucky.
Once I make a round in that Cloud Dream Temple, I’ll settle the score with you later!”
“Hold on a moment!”
Nantian Lie stepped forward, blocking Yang Dingtian’s path.
Yang Dingtian frowned and said, “Nantian Lie, you dare to stop me?”
Nantian Lie shrugged his shoulders and spoke with an indifferent face, “Yang Dingtian, this Cloud Dream Temple emerged within the territories of the Nantian Dynasty.
This place should belong to the Nantian Dynasty, isn’t it inappropriate for you to barge in like this?”
“You…”
Before Yang Dingtian could speak, Elder Tianku by his side nodded and added, “Nantian Lie is right.
The Cloud Dream Temple isn’t just for the people of the Nantian holy land!”
In this world, there are no permanent friends, nor are there permanent enemies. freёwebnoѵel.com
There is only interest!
When interests align, any existence that shakes their grip on interests is an enemy!
And the enemy of an enemy is a friend!
Because of this…
Elder Tianku of the Changsheng Sect and Nantian Lie of the Nantian Dynasty stood on the same front!
Yang Dingtian’s expression changed unpredictably, his face cold, and he said, “What do you want?”
Elder Tianku said coolly, “Join forces to explore the Cloud Dream Temple together!”
“Join forces?”
Yang Dingtian frowned slightly, looking towards Nantian Lie.
Nantian Lie just nodded.
Even though the Nantian Dynasty truly wished to claim the Cloud Dream Temple as their own, both he and Nantian Wen knew that was unrealistic.
Neither the Changsheng Sect nor the Nantian holy land would allow them to do so.
Yang Dingtian hesitated for a moment and then said, “I can agree to your terms.
The three factions will join hands in exploring the Cloud Dream Temple.
Now that we’ve agreed upon a plan, the three of us can go in now, right?”
“Of course!”
Nantian Lie said with a smile and a nod.
Elder Tianku twirled a walnut in his hand and looked at Xiao Yi and Yue Shanchuan, “You just wait here…”
Immediately after.
The three Earthly Honor Realm powerhouses walked towards the Cloud Dream Temple.
Long Sihai laughed heartily, looking at Xiao Yi with a mocking face, “Xiao Yi, you’ve gone through so much trouble to discover the Cloud Dream Temple, only to end up making wedding clothes for others.
You can only watch helplessly as we take the treasures of the Cloud Dream Temple, powerless to do anything.
Doesn’t that feel sad?
Hahaha…”
“Damn it…”
Little Lin was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
Xiao Yi’s expression wasn’t looking too good either.
Of course…
The one with the ugliest expression had to be Su Xinghe, who had been ignored by Nantian Lie and the others from the beginning to the end.
This Cloud Dream Temple was his doing!
Yet it had nothing to do with him.
Long Sihai boasted triumphantly, “Just watch from here.
Once I get the treasures from inside the Cloud Dream Temple, I’ll be sure to let you have a good look as well, haha…”
While saying this.
Long Sihai also followed the three towards the Cloud Dream Temple.
However…
Just as the trio of Nantian Lie arrived at the outermost layer of the skyscape surrounding the Cloud Dream Temple, they found themselves unable to move, as if a Paralysis Spell had been cast upon them.
The three exchanged glances, and just as they were about to force their way through, several lines of text reappeared on the stele — “Only those below longevity may enter!”
Seeing those eight characters, Xiao Yi and Little Lin looked at each other and nearly burst out laughing…
PS: Writer’s block, just one release for today!
I’ll make it up tomorrow!
