Chapter 380: Crisis

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was daytime.. The sun was bright and cloudless.

Qin Jue woke up as usual. After casually eating something, he continued to lean against the blue stone and drink.

On the other side, Yun Xi’s eyes were closed slightly, and her aura was calm and dense. Surprisingly, she didn’t run around and was cultivating in peace. Long Zhui and the husky were the same. For a moment, the cliff seemed exceptionally quiet.

After drinking two pots of spirit wine, Qin Jue felt somewhat bored, so he took out his spirit tablet and flipped through the recent events of the Spirit Central World.

The Southern Land was still considered “peaceful”. Because of the sudden rise of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect and the fact that the impact caused by the purple fiends had yet to recover, many factions had become extremely well-behaved, including the Three Major Sects.

What surprised Qin Jue was that a hidden clan had appeared out of nowhere in the Central Continent, replacing the destroyed Spirit Clan and becoming the new twelfth sacred clan.

It was said that the patriarch was at the peak of the Grand Saint Stage and was only half a step away from the Great Sage Stage. If nothing went wrong, he was very likely to become the next Great Sage Stage expert.

Apart from that, there was also news of internal strife in the Pure Yang Sacred Land. As for the exact details, no one in the outside world knew.

Could it be because of Luo Weiwei?

Qin Jue frowned.

Just as he thought until here, an air-transportation spirit artifact suddenly appeared on the horizon. It approached from afar and quickly arrived above the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. Then, two figures jumped down and landed by the cliff.

Qin Jue focused his eyes. It was Luo Xun and Luo Weiwei!

What a timely arrival.

However, at this moment, Luo Weiwei looked even more beautiful than before. Her black hair fell like a waterfall, and her appearance was exquisite and flawless.

Not only that, but her cultivation had also reached the early-phase of the Supreme Stage. Clearly, Luo Weiwei had benefited greatly from this trip to the Pure Yang Sacred Land.

“Senior, we’re back.”

Luo Xun cupped his fists and bowed.

“Yeah.”

Qin Jue was expressionless as he said indifferently, “Did Luo Weiwei enter the Pure Yang Sacred Tower?”

“Yes.”

Luo Xun’s face was filled with excitement as he answered, “Weiwei broke all the records of the Pure Yang Sacred Tower that were never broken for the past tens of thousands of years and ascended to the top floor!”

The so-called Pure Yang Sacred Tower was actually the top cultivation ground of the Pure Yang Sacred Land. Only the direct descendants with pure bloodlines and top talent were qualified to enter.

A descendant like Luo Weiwei who was initially judged to be a mixed-blood should not have been able to enter. It was only because of the Pure Yang Sacred Master that she was ultimately allowed to enter. Despite the others disapproving, she became the first mixed-blood to enter the tower.

What was worth mentioning was that the Pure Yang Sacred Tower was divided into nine levels. If one reached the seventh level, it meant that one would be able to reach the Saint Stage in their lifetime. The eighth level represented an upper limit of Grand Saint Stage and the ninth level represented an upper limit of Great Sage Stage.

No one expected Luo Weiwei’s talent to be so terrifying. She had actually directly ascended to the top level of the Pure Yang Sacred Tower!

One had to know that even Luo Xun, the previous holy son of the Pure Yang Sacred Land, had only barely reached the eighth level!

In an instant, the entire Pure Yang Sacred Land shook. The elders who had originally treated Luo Weiwei as a “mixed-blood” all began to show concern for her and even treated her as a holy maiden.

Unfortunately, they were all rejected by Luo Weiwei. She had never thought of staying in the Pure Yang Sacred Land, so why would she become a holy maiden?

After coming out of the Pure Yang Sacred Tower, Luo Weiwei prepared to leave.

However, how could those elders agree to this? They immediately used force to forcefully imprison Luo Weiwei and Luo Xun. This was the internal strife of the Pure Yang Sacred Land that was circulated in the outside world. Even the Pure Yang Sacred Master could not help but advise the two of them to stay.

After all, the Pure Yang Sacred Master was the oldest cultivator among the Eight Great Sacred Lands. His name demanded respect but it also indicated that the Pure Yang Sacred Master’s lifespan was about to dry up.

And once the Pure Yang Sacred Master died, the Luo Clan would definitely fall out of the ranks of the Sacred Lands and even be attacked by other Sacred Lands.

Luo Weiwei’s appearance allowed many elders to see the hope of maintaining the status of the Sacred Land. As long as Luo Weiwei could advance to the Great Sage Stage, the Pure Yang Sacred Land would definitely rise to glory for tens of thousands of years!

However, Luo Weiwei did not have any sense of belonging to the Pure Yang Sacred Land. No matter how the Pure Yang Sacred Master persuaded her, she was unwilling to stay.

What happened next was very simple. Although the Elders Guild was very angry, with Long Zhen’s warning, the Pure Yang Sacred Master could only choose to give up and let Luo Xun leave with Luo Weiwei.

Of course, no matter what, her bloodline was still from the Pure Yang Sacred Land. Therefore, before she left, Luo Weiwei promised that if she advanced to the Great Sage Stage in the future, she would definitely protect the Pure Yang Sacred Land.

With this promise, the Pure Yang Sacred Master heaved a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

It couldn’t be helped. After all, they had been blind back then, causing Luo Weiwei to hate the Pure Yang Sacred Land.

Otherwise, Luo Weiwei would have long become the holy maiden of their Pure Yang Sacred Land!

After this incident, the Pure Yang Sacred Master decided to completely overturn the rules of the Pure Yang Sacred Land to seek a breakthrough, especially the rules concerning bloodline.

After hearing Luo Xun’s description, Qin Jue was stunned. He didn’t expect so many things to happen. It seemed that he had indeed made the right choice by letting Long Zhen warn the Pure Yang Sacred Master. After all, it saved him a lot of trouble.

“By the way, Uncle-Grandmaster, I brought you a gift.”

At that moment, Luo Weiwei took a step forward and took out a few pots of thousand-year-old spirit wine.

“Thank you.”

Qin Jue was stunned for a moment before he took the spirit wine and thanked her.

Although a thousand-year-old spirit wine was nothing to the current Qin Jue, it was absolutely not that simple for Luo Weiwei to take out a thousand-year-old spirit wine.

In fact, that was indeed the case. A large part of the reason why Luo Weiwei had agreed to protect the Pure Yang Sacred Land after advancing to the Great Sage Stage was because she wanted to obtain these pots of spirit wine from the Pure Yang Sacred Master.

“The two of you have traveled thousands of kilometers to rush back. Go and rest first. Also, from now on, you are officially ‘members’ of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect.”

Qin Jue ordered.

“Yes.”

Luo Xun’s expression shook. He knew that he had finally completely obtained Qin Jue’s recognition!

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Luo Xun put away his air-transportation spirit artifact and turned to bring Luo Weiwei back to the courtyard where he had previously lived.

Watching the two leave, Qin Jue opened one of the pots of thousand-year-old spirit wine and took a sip. The taste was not bad.

Perhaps it was because it came from the Pure Yang Sacred Land, it contained dense pure Yang energy. If the cultivators of the Pure Yang Sacred Land cultivated with this spirit wine, they would definitely be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort.

“Hmm?”

As if sensing something, Qin Jue raised his eyebrows and looked into the depths of the void.

Just now, his bloodline connection with Killing Dao suddenly produced waves of ripples that were extremely intense.

Could it be that Killing Dao was in danger?

How was that possible?

Apart from the Heavenly Emperor, who else in the Inner Realm could pose a threat to her?

Without any time to think, Qin Jue’s figure distorted and he instantly appeared in the void.

After slightly judging the direction, Qin Jue raised his hand to open a spatial gate and headed straight for Killing Dao.

As soon as he passed through the spatial gate, the first thing he saw was countless complicated and obscure runes that seemed to envelop an area of 5,000 kilometers.

Not only that, but there were also thousands of array formations in the surroundings that intertwined and combined together.. It was simply like an inescapable net.
