Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 757 The Sixty-Year Agreement: The Ancestor vs. the Old Demon
The name Yushu Qiongshan sounds a bit pretentious, but the environment is really not flattering.

It's a remote, deep forest.

"Such a huge mountain, luckily we came early, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to find anyone at all." The dragon carried Chu Danqing as it circled in the sky.

His eyes scanned the ground repeatedly, searching for any suspicious targets.

However, while it's easy to find jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards in these mountains, finding people is not so easy.

"It's a pity that Jade Tree and Jade Mountain are shielded by celestial secrets, otherwise we could have located it directly," Chu Danqing said regretfully.

"Look over there." Suddenly, Elong pointed in a direction to Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing looked closely and indeed saw two black dots.

"Who is it?" Chu Danqing was certain that someone had arrived, but she didn't know who it was.

“Zhu Danfeng,” Elong said, “and there’s another middle-aged man, who should be his master, Yue Tianpeng, the Sword Shadow of the Cold Pool.”

As it spoke, the Cretaceous Dragon increased its altitude again and then quickly flew towards the two of them.

They didn't know the exact location of the contract performance, but Yue Tianpeng certainly did.

Therefore, what the Cretaceous Dragon had to do was to follow them in secret.

What else can we do? We can't just search the whole mountain slowly.

"How many more tests do you have left?" Chu Danqing asked.

"You haven't used it even once, have you run out?" the dragon asked rhetorically.

“There’s one more time. I’ll use it on Ancestor Xuan Yi first,” Chu Danqing said. “If it’s not him, then we’ll make other plans.”

“Sure.” The Cretaceous Dragon didn’t care at all; the number of tests wasn’t some rare and precious treasure.

Even if it's not used up, it will be recycled by the park and won't be converted into strength or rating.

They followed the two men at a distance, and soon the two men arrived at a wooden house.

The wooden house was located in a remote and secluded place, and unless a dinosaur flew at low altitude, it would be impossible to detect.

It's obvious that someone specifically chose this location.

If Yue Tianpeng hadn't led the way, it wouldn't have been easy for Chu Danqing and Elong to find it.

They were still in the sky and did not choose to go down.

Yue Tianpeng led Zhu Danfeng to kowtow and pay their respects outside the door. Before long, an elderly man with white hair, a youthful face, and a kind and plump body opened the door.

After slowly helping the two people up, he slightly raised his head and looked up at the sky before opening his mouth and saying something.

"What's going on?" Chu Danqing sensed something, but couldn't see it clearly because of the distance.

"This Ancestor Xuan Yi has noticed us," said E Long. "He's inviting us down for a chat."

"What do you think?" The Cretaceous Dragon sensed something was amiss.

With his strength, a level 5 cultivator usually wouldn't be able to detect him.

And this Ancestor Xuanyi was able to accurately determine that there were two people spying on him from the sky.

Chu Danqing's heart sank when he heard this.

"Could he really have the strength of a level 6 expert?" Chu Danqing said.

“That shouldn’t be the case,” said the Cretaceous Dragon. “If he were a Tier 6, we would have been captured by now.”

“That makes sense,” Chu Danqing replied, then added, “But who knows if it’s just that they have high moral character.”

"Since they've invited us, let's go down and meet them."

From the very beginning, Chu Danqing had no intention of hiding anything; if they could find someone, the two of them would have already rushed over.

This was purely by chance.

"Alright, just be careful," said the dragon. "If things go wrong, I'll take you on a runaway trip."

Chu Danqing is just a summoner, and a slow starter at that.

The difference between being prepared and not being prepared is too great, so it's necessary to create a gap.

After saying that, the Cretaceous Dragon landed.

Ancestor Xuan Yi's gaze first fell on the Elong. Just as he was about to marvel at where this strange beast came from, the Elong turned into a human.

Then his gaze turned to Chu Danqing.

Upon meeting, Chu Danqing immediately instructed the Paradise to examine Ancestor Xuan Yi.

[Detection complete; target object exhibits severe abnormal derivative fluctuations]

Upon seeing the feedback from the amusement park, Chu Danqing immediately took a screenshot and sent it to the Cretaceous Dragon.

Ancestor Xuan Yi is not an anomaly, but he is closely related to anomalies.

Therefore, the park's test results had a 'derivative' label.

"What was the purpose of your earlier spying, you two?" Ancestor Xuan Yi did not question him arrogantly, but instead spoke in a friendly tone.

"There's something I need to ask the senior about," Chu Danqing said.

Since the other party was polite and gave him face, Chu Danqing certainly wouldn't make the atmosphere too awkward.

"Please speak," Elder Xuan Yi replied. "However, please hurry, as I have important matters to attend to today and I am afraid I cannot keep you two company for long."

"I'd like to know, senior, do you think there have been any unusual events or unusual people in your life?" Chu Danqing asked.

Ancestor Xuan Yi paused upon hearing this.

He truly hadn't expected Chu Danqing to ask that question.

Then he frowned and began to think.

"There is," said Ancestor Xuan Yi. "In terms of his extraordinary life experiences, he is someone I admire."

Then he told a melodramatic love story, leaving Chu Danqing and Elong speechless.

The information Chu Danqing had gathered was actually true. "I don't know why, but I'm deeply involved," sighed Ancestor Xuan Yi.

"You actually managed to react, that's amazing," the Cretaceous Dragon said in surprise.

Ancestor Xuan Yi laughed and said, "Haha, you flatter me."

"I am still deeply trapped in it and cannot get out. All I know is to add to my suffering."

As soon as he finished speaking, a long howl was heard, followed by a black shadow descending like lightning, carrying with it the atmosphere of pitch-black night.

“Xuan Yi, now that you have a complete understanding, you no longer need to participate in this half-life agreement.”

"For the rest of my life, I must never see Zhu Niang again."

The dark figure landed not far away; it was a burly old man, a stark contrast to the white-haired, youthful-looking Ancestor Xuan Yi.

"Tianye, it's been a long time. You're still as domineering as ever," Ancestor Xuanyi said with a smile.

Chu Danqing and Elong recognized the old man as the other person in the melodramatic love triangle.

He is known in the martial arts world as the Old Demon of Tianye.

As for the bamboo maiden, she should be the female protagonist in the story.

Tianye the Old Demon looked at Chu Danqing and Elong, a hint of apprehension in his eyes: "I never imagined that one of your third-generation disciples would be so formidable."

As he said this, four more people followed and stood behind Amano the Old Demon.

They are clearly his disciples and followers.

Chu Danqing also realized that the so-called agreement was actually a martial arts competition.

“These two people came here by chance; they are not disciples of my lineage,” said Ancestor Xuan Yi.

Just then, Xue Yuechan, the Flying Dragon Girl, arrived with Zhong Lei.

“I think it’s getting late. This is our private matter, and it’s not appropriate for you two to get involved,” said Ancestor Xuan Yi to Chu Danqing and the other person. “Please leave for now.”

"If you still have any doubts after this is over, you may come to me again."

This is an order to expel you.

"Then we'll take our leave." Chu Danqing cupped his hands in farewell, without making any excuse to stay, and left directly with the dragon.

Just now, Cretaceous Dragon also used a test on that old demon, Nono.

The feedback on their test results was exactly the same as Chu Danqing's.

This means that neither of them is truly abnormal.

That leaves only a third person.

“It seems that each person is indeed on their own path,” said Elong. “We are following the path of Ancestor Xuanyi.”

"The War Disciple should be Amano the Old Demon, while Fantasy City might be the storyline of Bamboo Girl."

But Chu Danqing frowned: "No, I feel like something's not quite right."

"Is there anything missing?" Elong hurriedly asked. The situation was already quite clear, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, the anomaly should be Zhuniang.

"I have the Luck attribute among my advanced attributes," Chu Danqing explained first, then said, "I always feel that Old Demon Tianye is quite different from Ancestor Xuanyi."

"No, he looks perfectly normal to me." Elong was surprised by Chu Danqing's words and said, "With his strength, he must be at the peak of the 5th rank."

"If it weren't for Ancestor Xuanyi, he would definitely be the number one in the world."

"Based on my observation, these two people are probably evenly matched and can be considered the strongest in this trial world."

“But since you have this feeling, it shouldn’t be unfounded. Why don’t we go back and take another look?” Elong definitely believed Chu Danqing.

He had witnessed firsthand how reliable Chu Danqing was.

"The agreement is a sixty-year cycle, meaning we meet once every thirty years, and each generation will have a martial arts competition."

"So this is the second time, which is sixty years ago, right?" Chu Danqing asked uncertainly.

"This is obvious, what's the problem?" The Cretaceous Dragon didn't quite understand.

"I just don't quite understand his narration," Chu Danqing said. "Look, if we were to meet and have a duel every sixty years, I'd say a cycle of sixty years is correct, right?"

The Cretaceous Dragon nodded: "No problem."

"But if it were thirty years, would you prefer to use half a Jiazi or just say thirty years?" Chu Danqing asked again.

"That's not necessarily true. They are considered ancient people, so it should be more accurate to say they lived around 60 years ago," Elong said after a moment's thought.

He definitely prefers to say it's been thirty years.

“Yeah, it’s only when they emphasize it that it feels a bit awkward,” Chu Danqing replied, then added, “It’s like subconsciously emphasizing the time.”

"Do you have a way to hide yourself so they don't find you?"

“Of course I have it,” said the dragon. “I also know some magic.”

Although doing so constitutes voyeurism, it is indeed unethical.

However, there's no way around it; sometimes there's simply no way to have it all.

After saying that, the Cretaceous Dragon used a group invisibility spell.

"Your skill set is quite comprehensive," Chu Danqing said.

"It's not a skill, it's the effect of the rune arrangement," the dragon explained. "Every time my bloodline is upgraded, it rearranges the runes."

"It gave me a fixed number of spells available each day, but most of the combinations were actually useless effects that I removed."

"The chances of successfully combining spells are too slim. Every time I upgrade my bloodline, I have to spend resources to increase the probability."

As for his claim of researching and arranging the data himself? He's a bloodline-based individual, not a mage.

Cretaceous dinosaurs didn't have that much time and energy.
