Night fell.
The forest was silent.
They lit a bonfire and ate a simple meal of dry food.
Everyone sat around the fire and chatted for a while.
Before long, they each returned to their tents and went to sleep.
Because the spot they chose was beside the official road, they didn’t have to worry about encountering bandits or robbers. Even if they did, with the status of the Misty Cloud Academy, they wouldn’t dare to mess with them. Therefore, Chen Dongfeng didn’t have anyone stand guard.
A few minutes later, thunderous snores resounded from Bai Xiong’s tent.
Luo Tian lay on the ground, not feeling sleepy. After recalling what Chen Dongfeng said during the day, he asked Illusion Fairy, “Big Sister Illusion, is Heaven’s Chosen Mountain really that powerful?”
Illusion Fairy replied, “Heaven’s Chosen Mountain is known as a sacred place in the Ancient World, and is the closest place to heaven. Any climber, as long as it allows you to take the first step, can obtain Heaven’s Chosen Power. This is one of the strongest three powers in the Ancient World, so how could it not be powerful?”
“To give you an example that you can understand: In the hearts of all martial artists from the Central Continent, the Misty Cloud Academy is similar to heaven. But to the king level forces of all five continents and their academies, their heaven is the Heaven’s Chosen Mountain. Obtaining Heaven’s Chosen Power is a symbol of strength.”
“That Hai family’s Crown Prince, that the old man mentioned during the day, does sound very powerful. To be able to climb to an unprecedented height on Heaven’s Chosen Mountain at the age of twenty, I guess the rumors they are spreading are considered true. He should be a Heaven’s Chosen Child, someone who is favored by heaven.”
“Once a person is favored, he will one day enter a higher plane and be among the gods.”
“Moreover…”
Illusion Fairy paused briefly before continuing, “The Hai family was able to rise rapidly within a year, so I suspect it was precisely during the year after the Hai family’s Crown Prince climbed Heaven’s Chosen Mountain. And… I suspect he entered a higher plane. There must be a powerhouse from the higher plane helping him. If those experts in the higher plane want to make a family on the Ancient World rise, it’s as simple as lifting a finger.”
The corners of Luo Tian’s mouth curled up into an excited smile. He then said, “He’s really powerful to the point of being terrifying. He actually entered a higher plane and even got help from an expert in the higher plane. It seems that it’s really difficult to overthrow the Hai family within ten years.”
Illusion Fairy then said, “Did you think it was so easy to overthrow a king level force? It’s even more difficult, especially for the Hai family. I advise you to find a way to reconcile with the Hai family because it would be more beneficial to your development.”
“Reconcile?”
“Hahaha…”
Luo Tian chuckled briefly before saying, “I didn’t finish my sentence just now. Although it’s difficult to take down the Hai family, they have repeatedly tried to put me to death. Even if it’s difficult, I, Luo Tian, will definitely take them down. Just because they have provoked me, Luo Tian!”
It was impossible to reconcile.
The tragic deaths of the resentful spirits in the Boundless Mountain Range, Wu Sha’s pursuit, and Hai Yulong’s humiliation. All of these things made reconciliation impossible. Even if Hai Tongtian knelt before him and asked for a reconciliation, Luo Tian would not agree.
At least he’d have to sing Conquered first.
At this moment, a faint sound came from the forest.
The sound was so faint that it could be easily ignored!
But the sound startled Luo Tian and made him sit up. He instantly released his spiritual senses.
“Ommm~!”
“Ommm~!”
“Ommm~!”
His spiritual senses didn’t detect anything but he did sense a buzzing sound.
Luo Tian had never encountered this kind of thing before.
However, his intuition told him that danger was approaching.
Right after that, he concealed his aura and took out his treasured Mirror of Divine Void. He then used the mirror to summon a clone. The clone lay in the tent, while his true body quietly left the tent and hid on a treetop, quietly observing everything. ȑ𝙖𝐍ȯʙÈŚ
Half a minute passed by, but there was not a sound, and no strange aura approached.
Just as Luo Tian was about to jump down from the treetop, a black shadow flickered against the dark backdrop. In the blink of an eye, the figure landed in front of a tent.
Right after that, two more black shadows approached.
The leader was none other than Hai Yulong!
Luo Tian’s brow furrowed as he stared at Hai Yulong. He then said to himself, “Heaven has a path, but you don’t take it. Hell has no door, but you still try to break in. Today, I’ll see who can save you!”
Back then, Hai Yulong treated Yi Yunmeng like shit in Towering Cloud City.
If that powerhouse hadn’t appeared, Luo Tian would have definitely ended Hai Yulong’s life then.
Yi Yunmeng’s disfigurement was because of this bastard!
The Hai family’s pursuit of him, the cause of everything, was all due to this guy!
Hai Yulong whispered, “First find that dog thing Luo Tian. After finding him, I want to thoroughly humiliate him.”
Hai Yulong had been feeling extremely upset.
His position in the Hai family was impacted due to being defeated by a useless person with a shattered dantian. This was a huge disgrace for him. He was punished by his father, but he had broken through to the Great Diffusion realm as a result of it. After gaining the power of the Great Diffusion realm, he felt that he was strong enough to crush Luo Tian.
In his heart, Luo Tian was at most in the Condensation Element realm. In a short month, it was impossible for him to break through to the Martial Void realm no matter how quickly he cultivated.
He was absolutely confident in defeating Luo Tian.
This time, he snuck out, bringing two Poseidon ranking disciples with him. It could be said that this was the main reason for his absolute certainty.
“Young Master, what should we do with the others?”
“Never mind them. Just find that dog thing Luo Tian for me first. I won’t be happy until I kill him. I spent half a month in seclusion just so I could crush him mercilessly,” Hai Yulong said coldly.
“He dares to touch the woman my brother has his eye on? He’s courting his own death!”
A tent was lifted open very lightly.
Everyone except Luo Tian was sleeping soundly.
Who would dare to mess with the examiners from the Misty Cloud Academy?
Wasn’t that courting their own death?
It was precisely because of this that the slight sound he made when opening the tent didn’t wake anyone up. They were still sleeping soundly. Especially Bai Xiong’s snoring, which could scare a cow to death. It was simply too deadly.
A short while later, a man in black opened Luo Tian’s tent. He took a look at the ‘sleeping’ Luo Tian and a look of joy appeared on his face. “Young master, he’s here!”
Hai Yulong was extremely excited and immediately responded, “Good!”
Because he was too excited, he forgot that there were other people sleeping nearby.
Lin Dong was the first to wake up and rushed out of the tent, shouting, “Who is it?!”
Immediately after, the two elders, Chen Dongfeng and Old Xu came out. Then followed by Bai Lingling, and finally Bai Xiong, who was rubbing his eyes as if he hadn’t woken up yet. He scratched his head and said, “Who is yelling in the middle of the night?”
Suddenly, Bai Xiong saw a man in black walking out of Luo Tian’s tent, carrying Luo Tian in his hand.
Bai Xiong instantly woke up, and roared angrily, “Let go of my boss!”
As soon as his words faded, his figure rushed over like a heavy tank at top speed.
Luo Tian’s expression changed as he said to himself, “Oh crap! This damn fatty can’t hold in his temper at all. It’s definitely dangerous for him to rush up so recklessly.”
