"What!?"
Everyone’s gaze focused on Jiang Feng.
Several people walking in front of him turned around, and even Chen Shan and Wei Jie had looks of surprise and disbelief in their eyes. Not only the more than one hundred disciples, but even the four elders standing on both sides locked their sights on Jiang Feng.
Even Zhang Shanyuan, standing inside the Gathering Yuan Tower, looked sowhat shocked.
Normally, these Core Formation and Nascent Soul Stage youngsters wouldn’t have the opportunity to co into contact with such things. The first ti young disciples encounter a Grotto Heaven is basically when several Great Sects discover an unexplored Secret Realm and open an entrance with the combined efforts of their many experts.
Only then do they qualify to enter, and the struggle for it begins.
Many disciples only have this one opportunity in their lifeti; even if elders ntion it at ho, it’s impossible to recognize it without personal experience. But Jiang Feng...
"Damn it, not again! I won’t go, I won’t go!"
Soone’s heart was pounding with fear.
His mouth trembled. This special wave of Spiritual Energy was fresh and unfamiliar to others, yet for Jiang it was a lifelong nightmare. The smile of the Golden Monk was still vivid in his mind.
The psychological shadow cast by that old demon may take years to recover from.
"Oh?"
The noisy surroundings suddenly fell silent.
It was so quiet that he could hear his own wildly beating heart. His fellow sect brothers stood in place, seemingly unable to see him, still whispering and discussing.
There seed to be an invisible, thick barrier between them, as if it couldn’t be broken by external forces.
"You’re Jiang Feng, right."
The old man’s voice sounded by his ear. The elderly yet powerful voice remained gentle, as if sensing the turmoil in the young man’s mind. With his extensive experience, he quickly realized the young man had likely been frightened before, otherwise, he wouldn’t have such a strong reaction.
With a raised hand, he casually ford a spell. His lips moved slightly, and the old man’s voice seed to have a magical power, imdiately calming the boy’s racing heart, even the surging blood returned to normal.
Reason prevailed, and it was like a splash of cold water on his face, waking him up instantly.
"Is this the Heavenly Clarity and Serenity True Technique?"
Such a question flashed through his mind.
This remarkable calming effect made him instantly realize it was probably an Earth Rank ntal thod. Even if he hadn’t eaten pork, he had seen pigs run.
Zhang Shanyuan rely nodded.
"The Heavenly Clarity and Serenity True Technique was created by my master’s wife. She was also the Peak Master of Qingxia Peak back then. This ntal thod is exceptionally suitable for you. It is treasured within this Gathering Yuan Tower, and if I’m not mistaken, you should choose it as your reward for the Nine Peaks Martial et."
"Yes, disciple Jiang Feng, trained in Sword Control, pays his respects to Elder Shanyuan."
He bent down and gave a very standard Junior’s salute.
"Hmm."
The voices of others were no longer audible, as if he was completely isolated. He rely gestured for Jiang to follow him, while he himself strode into the Gathering Yuan Tower.
Without much hesitation, Jiang followed.
Though he had encountered an attack within the sect, he subconsciously maintained trust in the sect. Additionally, he felt no threat from the old man but rather a strong sense of security.
Moreover.
He was quite curious about this elder who was even older than the Sect Master.
"This tower is called the Gathering Yuan Tower, also known as Tiandu Abyss."
The first sentence was his knowledge blind spot.
Ti completely halted around them, even the actions of the four elders leading the team slowed like in a slow-motion replay, filled with eeriness.
His heart skipped a beat as he realized this was likely a form of direct communication through ntal states, a contact between Divine Souls.
"Smart, no wonder Xiao Liuer speaks so highly of you. If the second elder were still alive, they would probably treasure you as well."
He chuckled softly.
The ’second elder’ he ntioned naturally referred to Liu Tangxi’s master, Liu Jian.
"The Tiandu Abyss was discovered more than six thousand years ago, located at the extre south, forming a chasm between Jiuzhou and the territory of extraterrestrial demons, ten thousand feet deep, bottomless."
"On its cliffs, countless relics of ancestors remain. It was once an ancient relic, later becoming a battlefield for the Human Clan’s predecessors and extraterrestrial demons, and that area was destroyed long ago during the war."
"The extraterrestrial demons are extrely terrifying. I saw many in my youth, all difficult to handle, their skin festering, strange appearance, flesh exposed like peeling paint."
"So demons possess multiple limbs, so are neither human nor beast, and even their Divine Skills and moves are unheard of."
"Most frightening is that these demons are born with cultivation realms that ordinary humans can’t hope to match. In the nine realms of the immortal path, they stand at Core Formation from birth, with many at the Mahayana Realm. If I recall correctly..."
"Among the Xuanyin Sect mbers you briefly encountered last ti, there’s one who inherited from an extraterrestrial demon, that Bone Dragon is one of those Divine Skills."
With eyes wide open.
A bit shocked within, but quickly regaining composure under the old man’s spell, frowning slightly.
Because there was an unrealistic thought that flashed through his mind. It wasn’t out of greed, but rather he recalled a recent conversation with his senior sister about structures under East Sea Extre Island that didn’t seem to belong to the current era.
