Ao Sheng’s expression drastically changed.
When he heard the title Poseidon #990, his body involuntarily shivered.
At first, he was showing some respect for the young man because he was from the Hai family. But now, he felt fear and a chill in his heart because of the #990 ranking.
There was a very special ranking system within the Hai family, and only 1000 places were established.
The ranking of 990 was near the end, but the ranking was from a king level force. The rank was completely different when compared to gold or silver level forces.
It was very difficult for a person to even get on the ranking list inside the Hai family.
It is rumored that the top 1,000 people on that ranking were even stronger than the top 1,000 students of the Misty Cloud Academy.
The Misty Cloud Academy was the strongest academy in the Central Continent and has produced countless powerful individuals. These individuals are all high-level students, but they were still not as good as those on the Poseidon ranking list of the Hai family.
This demonstrated what terrifying existences they were!
Ao Sheng bent lower, not daring to turn around, and only backed out one step at a time.
Wu Sha’s face showed no expression while his eyes were slightly narrowed. He looked out of the window at the night sky while his mouth curled up slightly. He then muttered to himself, “After completing this task, my ranking should go up by one place, heh heh…”
Black Wind Cave.
“Oh damn!”
“You guys are all perverts! I can’t believe how fast you guys are!” Luo Tian stood at the entrance of the iron door, his eyes filled with shock when he looked at Bai Lingling and the other two. Their cultivation bases had all risen.
Especially Lin Dong!
This guy has broken through three times in just a short three days, already reaching Condensation Element 6th rank.
This speed was inconceivable!
Bai Lingling and Bai Xiong each broke through a small realm.
When they saw Luo Tian, the three of them smiled in excitement.
Bai Xiong was the first to say, “Boss, this place is amazing! There’s so much yuan energy that our speed of cultivation has increased by several times! I really didn’t expect the Black Wind Cave to be a treasure ground. It’s so unexpected, hahaha…”
Bai Lingling then said, “If the Bai family controls this place, the Bai family’s power might rise to the gold level within three years. This secret must not be known to outsiders!”
“Not to mention the gold level; it is only a matter of time before the Bai family can reach an even higher level of power in a place with such an abundance of yuan energy.”
Luo Tian smiled and said, “Who would dare to come here? The Black Wind Cave is forbidden ground, so no one in their right mind will come here.”
Lin Dong added, “If it wasn’t for the boss discovering this secret, who would have known that there was a treasure ground deep in the Black Wind Cave? Hahaha…”
“Hahaha…”
The few of them laughed together.
Bai Lingling said, “There are a few more hours until the time of our first exam. Our cultivation levels have improved, so all four of us should be passing the assessment.”
“That’s a definite!”
“Needless to say, our cultivation has greatly improved this time, so we will definitely pass.”
At this time, the four of them started laughing once more.
Finally, Luo Tian looked up at the mysterious runes on the walls and said to himself, “I definitely wasn’t the first to come to this place. There must have been others before us. Is the strange runes on the wall a seal or something? Is there anything else hidden within the Black Wind Sect from ten thousand years ago?”
“Hey! What are you thinking about?”
“Not something dirty, right?”
Illusion Fairy’s voice suddenly sounded off in Luo Tian’s mind.
Luo Tian jumped in fright, forgetting that she was inside him. He immediately chuckled and said, “Uhhh, I was just thinking how I can’t read any of these strange runes on the walls. Fairy, can you read them?”
Illusion Fairy said disdainfully, “It’s just some runes carved by a sorcerer. What’s so special about it? Do you want to learn about them?”
Luo Tian nodded and said, “I do. I feel that these runes on the walls should be telling a story. Are there some other secrets that the Black Wind Sect is hiding? Could it be that Mount Hua’s Progenitor used some type of supreme ability to send the Black Wind Sect of the Canglan Continent through a space warp to the Central Continent? That would be too powerful!”
Illusion Fairy replied, “What’s so great about that? If you were to become a Great Sorcerer, you can do it too. It’s really easy if you want to understand these sorcerer runes. You only need to become a sorcerer yourself, and you will naturally understand it.”
“Huh?”
Luo Tian was briefly stunned before asking, “Didn’t people say that all sorcerers are chosen by the heavens? I’m not a chosen one, so how can I become a sorcerer?”
“No such thing!”
“Do you know what heaven’s chosen really means?” Illusion Fairy asked.
Luo Tian replied, “Of course! A person that heaven chooses!”
“Idiot!”
Illusion Fairy said disdainfully, “Have you heard of the Heaven Chosen Mountain? It is the closest place in the Ancient World to the heavens. If you want to become a heaven’s chosen, you can just climb the Heaven Chosen Mountain. As long as you climb halfway up the mountain, you will be qualified to become a sorcerer. However, not to mention halfway up the mountain, you won’t be able to climb even one step on the Heaven Chosen Mountain with your cultivation realm.”
Heaven Chosen Mountain?
Luo Tian had never heard of it.
Even the books and scrolls he read through after coming to this world never mentioned it.
However, Luo Tian was just merely curious about the runes on the wall. He had a nagging feeling that there was something useful recorded there.
It also didn’t matter if he didn’t know about it since he wasn’t very interested in becoming a sorcerer. It would be good to become one, but it’s not a big deal if he couldn’t. Luo Tian smiled and said, “Even though I cannot become a sorcerer, I can still beat up sorcerers until they can only crawl on their hands.”
Illusion Fairy suddenly became quiet in contemplation.
Luo Tian thought she wasn’t going to talk about the subject any longer and was about to leave with Bai Lingling and the others.
Suddenly, Illusion Fairy muttered, “How… how… how come these runes would have the solution to the Soul Poison?”
She didn’t notice it at first. In her opinion, the runes carved by the sorcerer were nothing special. What she didn’t expect was to see a possible solution to the Soul Poison just by glancing at it.”
Luo Tian’s heart skipped a beat as he asked, “What did you just say?”
Illusion Fairy frowned and said, “It doesn’t say specifically, but it does say that the first step to solving the Soul Poison is to become a sorcerer and use the power of the chosen one to create an antidote. As for the details of the antidote, it doesn’t say.”
Curing the Soul Poison has become one step harder now.
Luo Tian thought that as long as he became a student at the Misty Cloud Academy, he would be able to find that old man who had mentioned the Soul Poison to Dongfang Shuo’s father. Then, he would be able to find the formula for the antidote. But now, he had to become a sorcerer. He didn’t know anything about Heaven Chosen Mountain, but from the words of Illusion Fairy, what he knew was that the mountain would be a very difficult place.
“Fuuu~…” Luo Tian exhaled.
The tone of Illusion Fairy also became a bit somber, saying, “Don’t worry; you can’t enter the Heaven Chosen Mountain Range with your current cultivation realm. But I will help you. I will definitely do what I promised you. Didn’t you want the bodies of the seven Honorable Emperors?”
“I will give them to you.”
Luo Tian was dumbstruck by those words.
