Chapter 657: Chapter 657: The Method of Starting_1
The visitor wore a long black dress, her white hair tied up in a bun, revealing a goose-oval face full of wrinkles.
If it weren’t for the ravages of time, distinct traces would have remained on her face. Her well-proportioned facial features suggested that she must have been a great beauty in her youth.
Regrettably, time, like a ruthless knife, had mercilessly stripped away her youth.
"Master, what are you doing here?"
Zi Yu’s petulant demeanor was nowhere to be found when she saw who had arrived. freeweɓnovel~cѳm
This was not fear but respect. She deeply respected her master, who raised her single-handedly, and despite being strict, always showered her with love.
"I came to see Zhang Xian."
ZiZhu walked up to Zhang Xian. After examining him carefully with her eyes, she nodded and praised, "Good, worthy of being a student of my eldest fellow-apprentice. So young, yet already accomplished."
"Haha..."
Boss Gui laughed, "Junior sister-apprentice, long time no see. You seem to have changed a lot."
"Everyone changes, be it our looks or our heart."
ZiZhu looked at Boss Gui, "Elder brother, you’ve also changed quite a lot; it’s just that you have not realized it. You are no longer as sharp as you used to be."
"What’s there to be sharp about when you’ve aged?"
For once, Boss Gui shyly scratched his head like a little boy, "The world now belongs to the young."
"Such an affair."
Zhang Xian blurted out a comment from the side, catching the two off guard.
ZiZhu and Boss Gui looked a bit embarrassed at his words.
Surprisingly, Boss Gui didn’t scold Zhang Xian. Normally, he would have already started a fight.
"Master, were you and senior uncle..."
Zi Yu chuckled, "But I am curious, how come you two never met over the years? If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would never have known that I had a senior uncle."
Your guys shouldn’t meddle in our affairs."
ZiZhu looked at Zi Yu, "Instead, what about you, girl? Zhang Xian is right here. You owe me an explanation about the two of you."
"Master, I..." Zi Yu didn’t know how to respond.
Zhang Xian could understand Zi Yu’s predicament and knew that she couldn’t escape. So, he stepped forward and laughed, "Well, aunt, you don’t need to pressurize us about our affairs. As a girl, my senior sister might be a bit shy about such matters. It would be best if we settled it privately."
Zi Yu glanced at Zhang Xian, her eyes expressing gratitude.
"That’s fair."
After casting a glance at Zi Yu, ZiZhu walked towards the stele, "Do these two characters represent ’Immortal Path’?"
"Yeah..."
Zhang Xian nodded, "But we came across a teleportation array in an ancient sect not long ago. If this here is the ’Immortal Path’, then that teleportation array appears to be superfluous."
"Who told you that there must be a teleportation array here? Or do you know if that array can cross time and space?"
ZiZhu said, "Instead of standing on the outside, we might as well go in and take a look. Zhang Xian, do you think you can break through this formation?"
"Um, that won’t be a problem,"
Zhang Xian advanced, spreading his divine consciousness. He quickly found the formation’s breaking point and easily removed the whole formation. Suddenly, a cave appeared.
The formation protecting the cave was about to dissipate. Even if it was once mighty, it now barely differed from a basic formation.
One didn’t need a formation master, any cultivator with a bit of knowledge could easily break it.
"Let’s go!"
Boss Gui glanced at the dark cave entrance, striding in without hesitation.
Zhang Xian, Zi Yu, and ZiZhu followed him closely.
"Another formation?"
From a nearby forest, two figures emerged, their eyes locked onto the suddenly appearing dark cave.
They were Bai Yu and Feng Xinzi.
Last time, they narrowly escaped death. After recovering their vitality, they hid outside Lingxiao Island, waiting for a chance to kill Zhang Xian and seize the resources.
"Why have so many strange formations started to appear recently? Where are these formations coming from?"
Bai Yu touched his empty sleeve, his face turning green with rage, "Zhang Xian knows a lot of secrets. Damn it, we’re the ones being kept in the dark this whole time."
"It’s a pity we can’t follow too closely, or we could have eavesdropped."
Feng Xinzi was also quite vexed by this, "I always feel that there’s something suspicious about Big Buddha Temple and Zhang Xian being together, but I can’t figure out what brought them together."
"Shall we go over and take a look?" Bai Yu asked.
Feng Xinzi frowned, "That old man is a strong cultivator in the Legendary Realm, and the girl is not weak either. Add Zhang Xian to the mix, do we stand a chance? Right now, you’re not as strong as before. You’ve lost your right arm, your strength has dropped by at least thirty percent. We have no chance of winning against two cultivators from the Legendary Realm."
"So what if I’ve lost thirty percent of my strength?"
The mention of this made Bai Yu grind his teeth with rage, "If we both strike together in a sneak attack, Zhang Xian is as good as dead. Once that guy’s gone, what can the girl do to me?"
"Really want to fight?" Feng Xinzi doubted their chances.
It wouldn’t be a contest if two legendary powerhouses sneaked up on a grandmaster. Bai Yu, despite losing an arm, might not necessarily lose against the girl from the Legendary Realm.
However, the old man nearby gave him an uneasy feeling. He seemed like a dangerous person.
Others may think that reaching the Legendary Realm is the pinnacle of martial arts, but those who have ventured into it know that the higher the climb, the greater the divide. Once their realm can’t be improved, they try to enhance their strength in every possible way, thereby widening the gap.
Bai Yu turned to Feng Xinzi, "Are you scared? If we don’t kill Zhang Xian now, it will be our end once he grows stronger."
"Let’s go and take a look."
Feng Xinzi hesitated, then waved his hand, leading the charge towards the cave entrance.
Bai Yu smirked coldly, following closely behind.
...
The cave was dark and extended deep.
About ten meters in, there was a large cavern. A faint light streamed in from a fist-sized, milky-white stone embedded in the ceiling.
The stone walls of the cavern were smooth, as if polished over time, and covered in strange, etched symbols.
"Zhang Xian, come see what is written here."
After examining the stone wall, Old Man Gui cursed, "This damned place is filled with ancient writings. I don’t recognize any of the characters, it’s giving me a headache."
Zhang Xian nodded and began to read the symbols on the wall.
Not long after, he chuckled bitterly, "This cave only contains instructions on how to activate the teleportation array."
"Just a few words?" Old Man Gui asked in surprise.
Zhang Xian nodded, "Yes, just these few words, nothing else. However, it clearly states that the inheritance, teleportation array, and immortal path were intentionally separated to find the Heaven Bearer. If only one them is obtained, it wouldn’t be enough to reach their space-time. Without obtaining the inheritance first, one can’t access the immortal path and the teleportation array."
"No wonder..."
Zizhu chuckled, "So you are the Heaven Bearer they were searching for. Now, you have acquired everything they left."
"Seems like it!"
Zhang Xian smiled and continued, "I already know the location of the teleportation array, and how to activate it. Now the only thing left is the power, which is the toughest part."
Old Man Gui chuckled, "But surely it can’t be that hard for Zi Yu and Yao Rao to break into the Spiritual Origin realm, right?"
"It’s quite difficult..."
Zhang Xian said, "But the truth is I have no intention of going to that realm. So, the teleportation array doesn’t really matter to me. If I go there with my current power level, surely it would be suicide."
"Then let’s leave this place!"
Zizhu suggested, "If you don’t wish to go, you can pass on the inheritance generation after generation. Even if you don’t go, it doesn’t mean your descendants won’t. The cultivators chase after ultimate power."
"Hmm..."
Zhang Xian nodded, "I will pass on the inheritance generation after generation."
Old Man Gui glanced at Zhang Xian but didn’t say anything further. He took the lead and started to walk out.
Zhang Xian was an orphan. Old Man Gui not only played the role of his master but also his father. However, he didn’t want to interfere with Zhang Xian’s choice concerning such a significant matter.
"Wait, someone is coming."
Suddenly, Zhang Xian halted, chuckling, "It’s an old acquaintance of mine."
"Who?"
Knowing that Zhang Xian had mental extrasensory powers to aid him, Old Man Gui didn’t show any disbelief.
"Who is coming?"
Zizhu asked in surprise, "Why don’t I feel anything? Has my perception regressed? But it shouldn’t! Perception shouldn’t deteriorate along with the loss of power."
"Haha, younger martial sister, although you’ve lost your cultivation, your perception is still there, only the range is limited."
Old Man Gui laughed, "Zhang Xian is not an Ancient Martial Arts Practitioner but a Cultivator. He has the aid of mental psychic powers and can sense from afar, something that we can’t do."
"I see!"
After Zizhu gave Zhang Xian a surprised look, she nodded in understanding.
The matters related to cultivators were something she had only recently heard from her martial brother and she didn’t know much about them. At that moment, she became interested in Zhang Xian and wanted to know more about cultivators.
"Let’s go."
Old Man Gui chuckled, "It’s been a long time since I’ve last fought, my fingers are itching. I’m curious to see who dares to target the little brat."
"Heh..."
Zizhu teased, "Brother, there are probably no more than three people in this world who could make you turn away and leave, right?"
"Well... I’ve never competed before, so I’m not sure."
Old Man Gui chuckled, "However, anyone who wants to kill me better be well-prepared."
Zhang Xian listened with curiosity.
Old Man Gui was undeniably his master who had brought him up, but how powerful was he truly? He had yet to witness Old Man Gui in a real fight.
However, he sensed that the vulgar old man was incredibly powerful, certainly stronger than an average legendary powerhouse.
