Chapter 1745: 1745
Gongxi Qing and the others were utterly dumbstruck by what they were seeing .
That was their old ancestor, an Ancient Sage expert! It was just a moment earlier that he had declared that he would redress their grievances, but as soon as he learned that the culprit was Zhang Xuan, he turned tail and fled without any hesitation!
What the freaking hell was that?
Was the other party not just a mere Aureate Body realm consummation cultivator?
Why did it seem like their old ancestor… feared the other party?
While Gongxi Qing and the others were feeling stifled at being left in the lurch by their old ancestor, the old ancestor was on the verge of spurting blood as well .
He was actually the same Ancient Sage who had been injured by the Infernal Blacksaber back at the entrance of the Hall of Great Accomplishment!
Of course, given the tremendous strength he wielded as an Ancient Sage cultivator, there was no way that he would fear a mere Aureate Body realm cultivator . However, the young man had an Ancient Sage saber in his possession, which changed the very nature of things . Furthermore, he could feel that Zhang Hongtian was hidden somewhere around the area, discreetly protecting the young man from the dark .
If he was really caught between an Ancient Sage cultivator and Ancient Sage saber in his wounded state, he could end up losing his life!Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
Ancient Sages were extraordinarily resilient creatures . However, if one successfully slew an Ancient Sage, one would find that the body of an Ancient Sage was filled with treasures from head to toe .
He had thought that the reason why Zhang Xuan was able to enter the Hall of Great Accomplishment was because he had studied the Zhang Clan's Celestial Amulet of Legacy thoroughly, to the point that he was able to decipher its seal and overcome it even without the amulet in hand . The possibility that Zhang Xuan would have been able to enter the Hall of Lull as well had never crossed his mind .
Who would have thought that even after fleeing there, he still ended up encountering the other party?
"The rest are in the midst of preparing for that matter, so I can't bother them at the moment . However, once they are done with that, we'll surely get back at them!" The old ancestor harrumphed .
It went without saying that the powerful Hundred Schools of Philosophers did not just have him as their only Ancient Sage . However, it just so happened that the others had more important matters to attend to, so he was the only one free enough to take care of the younger generation .
He had thought that with him standing up for the younger generation, neither the Master Teacher Pavilion nor the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe would dare cross their path . Yet, contrary to his expectations, he ended up being severely wounded as soon as he made an appearance…
The more he thought about it, the more miserable he felt .
However, as one who had survived to become an Ancient Sage, there were hardly any challenges that he had never encountered before . He would just have to tolerate it for the time being . Once the others were free, it would be time for him to exact his vengeance!
…
With the Infernal Blacksaber in his grasp, Zhang Xuan walked out of the Hall of Lull .
He knew that his actions in the Hall of Lull would surely draw an Ancient Sage from the Hundred Schools of Philosophers over, so he had taken out the Infernal Blacksaber in advance to counter any assault .
It was impossible for an Ancient Sage to kill him while keeping his location hidden . As soon as the other party revealed his location, the Infernal Blacksaber and golden page would swiftly rush forth to reap the other party's life . Thus, there was nothing to fear .
Walking out of the seal, Zhang Xuan saw the nine youths standing completely unharmed before him . Infernos of rage were burning in their eyes, but they did not attempt to make any moves against him .
"Oh, you've recovered," Zhang Xuan remarked nonchalantly as he cast a sweeping gaze across the surroundings .
While it was possible for them to recover from their fractured limbs using the Grand Intermittence Pill, they would still have to rest for at least a couple of days before they could make a full recovery . Considering how their injuries had completely vanished within ten minutes of being thrown out, it was very likely to be the doing of an Ancient Sage .
However, even after scanning the surroundings, he could not find anything at all . At the same time, the Infernal Blacksaber also reported that there were no Ancient Sages around .
Knowing that the trembling nine youths did not even pose a threat to him, Zhang Xuan shot them a piercing glare, which caused them to drop to their knees, before walking back down the road that he had come from .
It did not take long before he returned to the poison dimension . Without the koi fish around, poisonous creatures had swiftly swarmed around the pond . It seemed like it would not be long before the tiny 'safe haven' in the poison dimension was devoured by poison .
After passing through the exit, Zhang Xuan found himself standing in the midst of a world filled with boulders of all sizes .
It was as if he had stepped into the midst of a bald mountain range, filled with nothing but massive rocks . His visuals were instantaneously assaulted by the overwhelming onslaught of monotonous gray; there was not the slightest greenery in sight .
From the looks of it, it seemed like he was standing in the center of a stone forest .
The area was not as dry as the desert dimension, and it was not as rich in spiritual energy as the forest dimension either . If he had to use a single word to describe the current dimension that he was in, it would be 'bizarre' . The boulders around him had extremely bizarre shapes, and just taking a swift glance at the surroundings was enough to leave his eyes spinning .
"It seems like these boulders are depicting a certain kind of move . " Zhang Xuan leaped onto one of the taller boulders and pondered with a frown .
Looking at the general shape of the stone forest, he found that it resembled multiple experts executing their secret arts all at once .
"I'll know it once I give it a try!"
