Chapter 253 Waiting for the Visitor
Having said this, the old man's aura couldn't help but float, and the space around him was filled with a halo of spiritual power.
On the deck of the flying boat, the cultivator named Jia who was in the late foundation building stage felt the powerful fluctuation of spiritual energy, and couldn't help but reveal a look of envy and respect on his face, thinking to himself.
"This elder's cultivation is so powerful. Among Jindan cultivators, he is probably one of the most powerful. If I can reach this level one day, I will have no regrets in my life."
In the attic of the flying boat, the old man felt that his aura was going away with his turbulent emotions, and he couldn't help but restrain himself. His cultivation had reached the late stage of Jindan, and just now, because he was worried about his disciple, he couldn't help but be controlled by his emotions.
He has a disciple. Thirty-two years ago, under the leadership of the upper sect, the Hehuan Sect successfully annexed the Five Elements Sect and opened a branch sect, which attracted the attention of the young monks of the Hehuan Sect. After all, young monks aspire to become the backbone of the sect and the managers of the sect.
The disciple then asked him to recommend him to the branch sect. He initially disagreed, but due to the deep bond between master and disciple, the disciple was not only his disciple, but also the son of one of his saviors.
He and his savior were from the same sect and were brothers. When they were carrying out a sect mission together, Senior Brother Yu died while saving him. Senior Brother Yu's Taoist partner became depressed because of this, and while in seclusion practicing, he went astray and died.
Only one young son, Yu Danian, was left in the world, so the old man accepted him as his last disciple. He never married and had no children in his life. He treated him like his own son and helped him cultivate to the late stage of foundation building. However, his aptitude was poor and he was afraid that he would not be able to form an elixir in this lifetime, so he chose to go to a management position in the branch sect.
Although the old man tried to dissuade him again and again, the disciple Yu Danian insisted on going. Although the old man was reluctant, he used his authority as a Jindan elder to arrange for his trip.
Afterwards, he went into seclusion and refused to see him again. But on the day when Yu Danian went to the branch sect, the old man stood in the air to see him off. He watched his disciple Yu Danian leave sadly and prayed that he would return to the main sect of Hehuan Sect.
But more than ten years have passed, and not only has Yu Danian not returned to his side and listened to reports from his subordinates, he has also become the custodian of the branch sect's protective formation.
The old man had also secretly visited his disciple Yu Danian, and seeing that he was doing well, he left. He did not expect that such a thing would happen after that separation.
As an elder in the late Jindan stage, he naturally received news from the sect. When he heard that Patriarch Yuchen had sent a Jindan elder to lead a team to investigate, he volunteered to go.
With a sigh, the old man made a hand seal again and cast a hand seal towards the sphere, speeding up the flying boat.
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door.
"Elder Li, I have something to ask you."
Upon hearing this, the old man in the late Jindan stage raised his hand and waved, and the door opened.
"Thank you, Elder Li!"
Then, two figures walked in respectfully.
It was the middle-aged man named Jia who was in the late foundation building stage and the young man who was in the early foundation building stage who were chatting on the flying boat earlier.
The old man surnamed Li, who was in the late Jindan stage, was the first to speak in a cold voice.
"What's the matter?"
The two men then bent down and bowed, and the cultivator named Jia, who was in the late foundation building stage, spoke respectfully.
"Elder Li, I am the captain of this team, and I haven't received any mission notifications. My subordinates are confused. I have come here specifically to ask the elders, what our mission is?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Li couldn't help but look at the two of them deeply, then turned his gaze back to the ball in front of him, sighed, and explained.
"Hey, just for this matter, you are all cultivators of our Hehuan Sect, so you should just obey the sect's orders. This matter is urgent, and the sect has not had time to inform you. Only the elders know about it, so it's not a secret."
"The branch sect was attacked, and several elders were killed. The current situation is unknown. Our mission this time is to go to the branch sect and investigate the details. We will not participate in the fighting, so you can rest assured."
When the two heard that the branch sect was attacked and several elders were killed, and that their mission was to go to the branch sect, the expressions on their faces suddenly changed.
Even several Jindan elders died. Even if they went there to build their foundation, they would still not be enough to kill them.
Elder Li naturally noticed the change in their expressions, and finally explained that they were going to investigate and would not participate in the battle. This made the two men's expressions look a little better.
"Oh! Are you the ones from the Hehuan branch sect investigating ahead?"
As soon as Elder Li finished speaking, an unfamiliar voice sounded in the attic, which immediately changed the expressions of the three people.
Elder Li frowned, blue spiritual energy surged around him, and his late Jindan cultivation was released as he shouted.
"Who! Who's talking? Come out!"
Then, he saw the two people in front of him. Their expressions changed drastically, and they looked in his direction as if they had seen a ghost.
Elder Li's scalp turned pale and goose bumps appeared all over his body. He cried out in his heart, "Not good!" and was about to circulate his spiritual power and mobilize the magic weapon in his body to kill backwards.
But he heard an extremely cold voice behind him, like the whisper of death, echoing in his ears.
"Five Elements Sect [Xuan Kun]."
There was a loud "boom".
A huge three-colored spiritual power burst out from the flying boat pavilion.
Then there was another loud "bang".
The entire flying boat exploded directly, turning into fragments that fell rapidly to the ground from a high altitude.
……
Hehuan Sect, outside the mountain gate.
In a dense forest on a mountain top, a black-clothed figure was standing on a tall tree, looking down at the Hehuan Sect in the distance.
This person has an ordinary appearance, just like a passer-by in life, with an ordinary face that no one would remember. It was Xuan Kun who was heading south.
Three days had passed since the battle at the Hehuan branch sect. Xuan Kun rushed south to the Hehuan sect without stopping. When he was not far from the Hehuan sect, he flew at a low altitude, slowed down, and came to the dense forest on the top of the mountain, restrained his breath, and hid his body.
Xuan Kun looked at the Hehuan Sect below and began to assess it, observing and guessing.
"The He Huan Sect's protective formation is likely capable of stopping cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. While it can't compare to the Five Elements Tai Chi Bagua Formation in its prime, it's undoubtedly an extremely powerful formation. With my early Nascent Soul cultivation, even with the Ghostly Cold Flame, I wouldn't be able to escape unscathed if I broke into it. Not to mention Yu Chen, who's in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and Fen Yu and Ling Huan, who are in the early stages of the Nascent Soul."
Thinking of this, Xuan Kun sighed deeply and shook his head.
"Oh, no hurry, we still need to wait, everything should be considered in the long run, wait for someone to come."
……
In the blink of an eye, nearly a month passed. Not far from the Hehuan Sect, two dusty and disheveled figures were flying towards the Hehuan Sect on a flying magic sword.
In the dense forest on the top of the mountain, Xuan Kun, who was sitting on a big tree, said silently.
"coming."
