Chapter 322: Chapter 215: Returning to the Clan, The Seven Peaks Martial Meeting! _2
Every meeting ended with an immediate and complete oblivion.
Now, the remaining memories are only some insights about the cultivation of techniques.
People and events, as if erased from her memory by a supreme power.
Up to now, she inhaled many fragments of real spirits, also saw some previous life memory fragments, but never knew what her previous life looked like.
Like viewing flowers in the fog, or watching the moon in water, it’s never clear.
An hour and a half later.
“We’re here.”
Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and the two instantly appeared at the entrance of Heaven Lead Peak.
At that time, it was midday.
Under the bright sunshine overhead, the two disciples in front of the gate looked sleepy, their eyes flickering.
The sudden appearance of Jiang Yuan and Shu Xiaoxiao dispelled their drowsiness.
One of them rubbed his eyes, showing a terrified look.
The other one yelled: “Hey, where do you hail from that you dare impersonate my Senior Brother Jiang Yuan!”
Looking at their appearances, Jiang Yuan was speechless.
Upon hearing the outcry beside his ear, the one rubbing his eyes promptly pressed down his arm.
“Stop frowning, this is Senior Brother Jiang Yuan!”
“Ah! Greetings, Senior Brother Jiang Yuan!”
He hurriedly bowed.
A faint smile appeared on Jiang Yuan’s face, “No need for formalities, please let Chief Kong know that I have come to visit him!”
“Senior Brother Jiang, you don’t need to report your arrival. Feel free to go straight up there. However, Chief Kong is not on Heaven Lead Peak today!”
“Not there?” Jiang Yuan frowned, “Did he travel again?”
“No! These days are the once-every-five-years Seven Peaks Martial Contest. Chief Kong is currently watching the progress of the contest. He’s probably on Heavenly Pillar Peak now.”
Seven Peaks Martial Contest?
Jiang Yuan was slightly stunned.
He’d heard of it before, but didn’t expect it to be held at this time.
Jiang Yuan said with clasped hands, “I see, thank you for the information!”
The two of them were suddenly slightly anxious, “Senior Brother Jiang, you needn’t be so formal. You’re a legendary figure among the outer sect disciples. Helping you is our honor.”
“Yes! It’s our honor!”
Jiang Yuan smiled at Shu Xiaoxiao, “Let’s go!”
The two of them instantly took to the air, transforming into two streaks of light, flying toward the main peak of the Supreme Mystery Sect, the Heavenly Pillar Peak.
Leaving behind two stunned figures.
“Flying! This…this…” That person swallowed: “Senior Brother Jiang can fly, could he have broken through the legendary Divine Bridge Realm?”
“It can’t be! Even the Sect Elders are only at the Divine Bridge Realm. No matter how exceptional Senior Brother Jiang is, he probably hasn’t caught up with the Elders’ strength so quickly!”
“But, this… this flight, isn’t it a skill exclusive to the legendary Divine Bridge Realm?”
“Maybe we, as outer sect disciples, are just ignorant! Look, even the maid of Senior Brother Jiang can fly, she can’t possibly also be of the legendary Divine Bridge Realm, can she?”
“This… sounds reasonable! It’s plausible that Senior Brother Jiang has achieved the Divine Bridge Realm, but how could his maid also have achieved the Divine Bridge Realm!”
The two of them finally understood.
Then they said, “Even if Senior Brother Jiang hasn’t achieved the Divine Bridge Realm, he must be close! I’ve heard that the Pearl Cave is filled with countless natural treasures. There are decades worth of Spiritual Sea and even century-old medicinal herbs scattered around!”
Envy filled their eyes instantly.
“Yeah, I’ve heard about it, too. It’s like paradise on earth. Anyone who walks out of there would naturally achieve breakthroughs in their cultivation. I wonder if I’ll ever get the chance to go in!”
“You? Stop dreaming, last year, only four people in the entire Supreme Mystery Sect qualified to go there. Only heaven geniuses like Senior Brother Jiang are allowed into Pearl Cave.”
Jiang Yuan and Shu Xiaoxiao quickly arrived at Heavenly Pillar Peak. As he extended his divine sense, Jiang Yuan immediately located Kong Nian.
With a flash, he appeared next to Kong Nian.
“Who goes there!” Kong Nian suddenly shouted, his body tense, ready for a serious fight.
In his previous perception, a person silently appeared within 10 feet of him.
It was only at this distance that he actually noticed.
The implications of this were profound.
It meant that this person’s understanding of the Unity of Heaven and Man was far superior to his, which was the only way they could have approached him so quietly without his awareness.
Under such circumstances; if he were to be ambushed, he might not even have the chance to react.
If this person held hostility, it would be an extremely terrifying matter!
Equally on power, a prepared mind against an unprepared one.
When suddenly ambushed, he would almost be left with no room to fight back, being easily heavily injured by them, and eradicated on the spot.
Moreover, he was currently at the ninth level of the Divine Bridge Realm, just a step away from the Dharma Realm.
His understanding of the Unity of Heaven and Man was also at an extremely deep state and had already touched on the elusive state long spoken of.
An inexplicably profound state.
That this person’s comprehension of the Unity of Heaven and Man far exceeded his own was even more alarming to him.
Then, when Kong Nian finally recognized Jiang Yuan’s face.
“Jiang Yuan?”
He widened his eyes, revealing an incredulous look.
Jiang Yuan smiled, “Senior, why do you look at me like this?”
“Is it really you?”
Doubt filled Kong Nian’s eyes.
“Who else could it be besides me?” Jiang Yuan chuckled.
At this moment, Shu Xiaoxiao also slowly landed within ten feet behind Jiang Yuan.
“You…” Kong Nian hesitated for a moment, looked around, and then changed the topic, “You came out of the Pearl Cave?”
It was only then that Kong Nian took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and suppressed the fright in his heart.
When Jiang Yuan appeared so suddenly, it brought up countless questions in his mind.
But knowing that this place is bustling with people and not suitable for conversations, he could only temporarily suppress his doubts and divert the topic.
“Yes!” Jiang Yuan nodded, “That’s right!”
“Where’s Lu Qingshan? Why hasn’t he arrived yet?” Kong Nian surveyed around.
“The Sect Leader is still on the way, I returned a step ahead.”
The commotion between the two immediately attracted the attention of the crowd on the distant high platform.
All the major chiefs of the Supreme Mystery Sect, except Lu Qingshan, the Chief of Heavenly Pillar Peak and Sect Leader, were present.
Each one sat separately, with several core disciples from their respective lines standing at their sides, all ready to take the stage.
The presence of each chief was extremely lively, with a bustling crowd, vibrant and thriving.
The disciples beside them, from time to time, cheered and encouraged those below.
Only Kong Nian’s side was cold and clear, he was alone on the high platform, seeming like a solitary man.
Nie Xuan immediately revealed a friendly smile upon seeing Jiang Yuan, “So it’s Jiang Yuan’s return. But where’s the Sect Leader? Why hasn’t he appeared yet?”
“Greetings to Chief Nie!” Jiang Yuan saluted, “The Sect Leader is currently on the way, I returned to the Sect first.”
“Impressive!” Nie Xuan’s eyes lit up; he praised, “Your current speed must be much faster than the speed of the Void Flying Vessel! Are you at the eighth or ninth level of the Spiritual Sea?”
“Yes!” Jiang Yuan nodded.
“Great!” Nie Xuan was delighted, “It seems that in no time, our Supreme Mystery Sect will have another master of the Divine Bridge Realm!”
Upon hearing these words, Chief Mu, the Chief of Slanting Moon Peak, Wu Yin, and others looked at Jiang Yuan in surprise.
“Pearl Cave, it indeed is extraordinary, it can lead you to quickly reach this stage!” Chief Mu looked at Jiang Yuan with a complex expression on his face.
Looking at Jiang Yuan, she thought of Jiang Zhenyuan from the mortal world back then.
If Jiang Zhenyuan had such talents as Jiang Yuan, he would have been able to seize the opportunity she had given him back then.
Perhaps, he could have cultivated into the right fruit with Tantai Ming.
Because of her intervention back then, Tantai Ming had changed a lot over the years.
She appeared to be a stranger, no longer the innocent girl of the past.
She begrudgingly agreed to Tantai Ming’s engagement to Wang Yu of the Heaven Sword Mountain upon her independent request.
She had seen all of this.
Sometimes she would wonder, if she hadn’t intervened back then, would Tantai Ming have been much happier?
It also wouldn’t have led to her personality changing so much, becoming increasingly introspective.
Over the years, she was increasingly unable to understand Tantai Ming!
