"However, brothers, considering our current abilities, it might be difficult to storm the Divine Profound Hall," Zhang nglong said.
His realm has now reached the fifth grade of Divine Cultivation, but even with his unique constitution and having various gifts combined in one, he is perhaps only slightly stronger than Lei Poguan was back in the day. Even if he utilizes all of his trump cards, he would only be on par with the Hall Master of the Divine Profound Hall, still quite a distance away from reaching the Hall Master’s level.
Of course, Zhang nglong could choose to use the powers of the teachers from Super God Academy, but this vendetta, he plans to settle himself!
Moreover, although the others have also mastered the second layer of the Nine Nether Sunset Art, and can rampage through the Divine Cultivation Realm, it’s still far from enough to deal with the nurous Elders of the Divine Profound Hall.
Even a single Elder in the Dao Realm can easily defeat any one of them, and trying to storm the Divine Profound Hall now would likely end up in a humiliating defeat.
"Of course, what I’m saying now isn’t our current task," Zhang nglong said. "We need to avenge ourselves against the Divine Profound Hall, but now isn’t the right ti. Our abilities are still sowhat lacking, so our current goal is to break through to the peak of Divine Cultivation in a short ti!"
"Clan Leader, that’s not going to be easy," everyone sighed, not because it’s so difficult, but because reaching the peak of Divine Cultivation might take an extrely long ti, unless they re-enter that miraculous room of spirit and ti or use the ti hourglass again.
Unfortunately, neither the ti hourglass nor the room of spirit and ti can be used indefinitely, and they won’t be able to exploit such ti laws in the short term.
"Let’s return to the sect first," Zhang nglong said, "We might not have a way, but the Sect Master and others are knowledgeable and might give us so guidance."
"Alright!"
...
"Senior Brother Gu Xiao is back!" The disciples guarding the mountain gate cheered as soon as they saw them.
"What? Senior Brother Gu Xiao is still alive?"
"Wasn’t Senior Brother Gu Xiao directly struck by the Hall Master of the Divine Profound Hall? My goodness, not even a Peak of Dao Realm expert could kill him!"
The tales of Zhang nglong had already spread throughout the Sunset Sect. Everyone knew he led a group of newly upgraded outer sect disciples to Xuanyun City, causing chaos to the entire city. Even 80,000 Elders personally intervened to deal with them, but were frightened half to death by reinforcents called by Gu Xiao.
Ultimately, it was only when the Hall Master of the Divine Profound Hall personally intervened that the situation was contained; otherwise, given Gu Xiao’s temperant, those Elders wouldn’t have faced a good outco. He even took a fierce blow from the Hall Master, and everyone thought he was dead, even the Elders from superpower forces thought he was dead, only to find him now lively and appearing in front of everyone.
"I knew you couldn’t be killed!"
That ragged Elder Qi Congyun was the first to fly out from Sunset Sect. He was on good terms with several Elders from other superpowers, and many participated in the operation supporting Zhang nglong. They inford Qi Congyun that Gu Xiao took a hit from the Hall Master of the Divine Profound Hall, and when they left, they couldn’t even sense his presence.
Yet, Qi Congyun vaguely felt that Zhang nglong was not a person who’d easily keel over. Turns out, his intuition was right!
"I nearly rushed to the Divine Profound Hall to fight to the death for you. No way, you made worry so much, you must compensate !"
"Hey, hey, hey, alright, alright, I know you!" Zhang nglong quickly pushed Qi Congyun away. "Tell what you want, don’t give that sentintal stuff, I don’t buy it."
"Hahaha, do you still have that beer from last ti? Get so more white stuff?"
"That’s an easy request," Zhang nglong said, "Elder Qi, could you introduce to the Sect Master, I might need to ask him for help with sothing."
"What are you looking for the Sect Master for?" Qi Congyun asked curiously, "Don’t tell you want him to avenge your beating? That’s not very likely, the Sect Master’s only hobbies now are fishing and playing chess, he’s got nothing else he wants to do."
"Why do you care so much about my business; just tell if you’ll help or not!"
"You little punk, do you even respect as an Elder? Do you believe I’ll smack you?" Qi Congyun jokingly scolded.
"Co then, see if you can smack , let’s see who smacks who!"
Zhang nglong unleashed his aura, demonstrating the second layer of the Nine Nether Sunset Art, with energy fluctuations surpassing even the average fourth or fifth grade of Dao Realm.
"You brat!"
Qi Congyun’s smile halted abruptly, realizing that in just a few days, Zhang nglong’s life level had surged from Divine Breath up to the fifth grade of Divine Cultivation, to the point where his real combat power made him sowhat nervous.
"So, still want to fight?" Zhang nglong asked with a grin.
"Only a fool would fight you; I have to save face," Qi Congyun said nonchalantly. "You rascal, the first ti I t you, you were asking for help. Now, if I have trouble, I’ll co to you, hahaha!"
"Stop with the nonsense, when can you set up a eting with the Sect Master?"
"You stay put in the sect for a few days, once the eting is arranged, I’ll inform you."
"Alright!"
...
Even though Zhang nglong and the others were still outer sect disciples, based on their performance, the sect gave them a very high evaluation and even granted them the treatnt of Core Disciples.
Of course, there was also an unwritten rule within the Sunset Sect that you could provoke Inner Sect Disciples and Core Disciples, but never should you provoke Outer Sect Disciples because you never know when you might end up offending a monster who could unleash the second layer of the Nine Nether Sunset Art.
"Gu Xiao, we’re off, I’ll take you to see the Sect Master!"
Just a few days later, Zhang nglong hadn’t even finished wandering around the whole Sunset Sect when Qi Congyun ca looking for him.
"So soon?"
"Actually, the Sect Master wanted to et you too. Just don’t talk nonsense; although now you’re tougher than I am, in front of the Sect Master, you’re still a little nobody."
"Got it, why are you nagging like a woman?"
Zhang nglong’s words made Qi Congyun clench his fist, but he eventually relaxed, realizing he couldn’t beat him now!
After traversing half of Sunset Sect, they arrived at a small garden behind the island—aside from a rather large fish pond and various plants and flowers, there was only a small wooden house. No one anticipated that the Sect Master of such a superpower would live so humbly.
"Sect Master, Gu Xiao is here." Qi Congyun spoke cautiously at the garden entrance.
"Alright, you may leave; I will talk to Gu Xiao alone."
"Yes!"
Qi Congyun shot a warning glance at Zhang nglong, then respectfully retreated from the garden.
Like a ghost, a phantom swiftly flitted down the small path in the garden and soon arrived before Gu Xiao.
This was a chubby old man, entirely different from the Sunset Sect Master Zhang nglong imagined, looking hardly like a Martial Artist at the Peak of Dao Realm.
"Hello, Sect Master." Zhang nglong greeted.
"No need to be so formal," the Sect Master moved closer to Zhang nglong, ensuring no one else was around, and said, "That battle in Xuanyun City was splendidly fought, truly satisfying!"
