Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 84 Cloud Mountain

"Okay, let's go then."

An aged voice came from within the black robe, and then Xiao Jue accelerated, shooting towards the massive mountain ahead. "Is this it?"

Looking at the rows of military camps not far away, where a large number of elite soldiers were diligently patrolling at night, and looking further up, one could see countless blue stone steps leading to the top of the mountain.

"Hehe, this is an elite legion of the Jia Ma royal family stationed here specifically to guard against the Yunlan Sect. It is personally overseen by a Dou Wang from the Jia Ma royal family. Such a large force that does not belong to the royal family is located not far from the imperial city. Anyone would be uneasy."

Xiao Jue chuckled as he explained to the old doctor.

"Hehe, interesting. Let's be careful now and sneak in."

After arriving at the Yunlan Sect, Elder Yao asked, "Which way do we go from here?"

At this moment, Xiao Jue was standing on top of the stone tablet in the center of the Yunlan Sect's huge bluestone square. Around the square, groups of Yunlan Sect disciples carrying torches and wearing moon-white robes were patrolling.

Xiao Jue said in a low voice, "When we were in the capital, I obtained a layout map of the Yunlan Sect from Yaoyue. Over the years, the royal family has also figured out some of the situation of the Yunlan Sect. Let's go to the north, that is the living area of ​​the Yunlan Sect disciples."

"Whoosh!"

Looking again, the mysterious figure that had just been standing on top of the stone tablet had disappeared.

"Why is this room a woman's room?"

Seeing the rouge and powder on the dressing table in the room, Yao Lao couldn't help but feel puzzled. Just as Yao Lao was about to continue complaining, a series of footsteps suddenly came from outside the courtyard.

"Squeak!"

The door was slowly opened, and a graceful and elegant woman walked in.

The woman before me wore a simple dress that hugged her full, delicate figure. Her long black hair was styled into an elegant phoenix ornament. Her beautiful and charming face was calm and serene, yet it exuded a sense of grace and nobility that her simple clothes could not conceal.

"Hmm?" Yun Yun, who had been looking sad, was initially surprised to see Xiao Jue, but then she smiled.

"Xiao Jue, I understand your feelings now." Yun Yun smiled and walked forward, taking out a collar from her storage ring, intending to put it around Xiao Jue's neck.

Xiao Jue frowned and took a step back to avoid him, asking, "What do you know? Be careful if you keep this up, or I'll seal your fighting spirit."

The old ghost in the Bone Inflame Ring cackled, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

Yun Yun scoffed, "You helped Yanran improve her strength just so she could defeat Xiao Yan, and then you'd be..."

Xiao Jue's face immediately darkened. "What nonsense are you thinking? Even if Nalan Yanran's strength has improved, she still can't be Xiao Yan's match."

Xiao Jue then asked, "Have you confirmed the situation at Yunshan?"

"Hmm." Yun Yun put away the collar with some disappointment, then said sadly, "Not long ago, Gu He invited me to go to the Snake People's Clan with him, but apart from me, everyone else died at the hands of the Snake People's Great Leader."

"Originally, Yunling did not want me to disturb the teacher, but after Guhe died, he agreed to let me see the teacher. After all, Guhe's identity was too important to the Yunlan Sect."

"After the test, my teacher told me about Protector Wu of the Soul Palace. Protector Wu is not currently in the Yunlan Sect, but my teacher has a way to summon him. Are you confident in dealing with Protector Wu?" Yun Yun looked at Xiao Jue expectantly.

With Xiao Jue's talent and strength, the person behind him must be quite powerful; it's impossible for an ordinary person to cultivate such an outstanding disciple.

Moreover, Yun Yun had also heard the news that Xiao Jue had become the number one alchemist in the Jia Ma Empire. A sixth-grade alchemist might be able to invite a Dou Zong powerhouse.

"Take me to see Yunshan," Xiao Jue said. "I have the pills my teacher gave me. Once I see Yunshan, I'll know what to do."

"it is good."

Yun Yun nodded and left her room with Xiao Jue. They bypassed the layers of interception by the Yunlan Sect and finally stopped in front of a strange building far from the center of the Yunlan Sect.

This strange building seems to be built against the mountain, and its interior seems to be a different world altogether. Above its gate hangs three powerful characters, "Gate of Life and Death," which looks unusually solemn and desolate.

Yun Yun said, "Our teacher is in the forbidden area of ​​the Yunlan Sect, the Gate of Life and Death. The sect leaders of the Yunlan Sect are buried here. Their battle qi has been preserved through the power of the Gate of Life and Death. If future generations can gain the recognition of the battle qi of the sect leaders, they can absorb their battle qi through enlightenment to enhance their strength."

"This is why the successive heirs of the Yunlan Sect all experience a surge in strength after emerging from the Gate of Life and Death."

Xiao Jue used his soul power to sense that the previously inconspicuous building was actually surrounded by invisible transparent threads.

If anyone were to rashly trespass into this place, they would be immediately discovered by the owner, and might even be strangled by the unknown power of the threads here.

Xiao Jue and Yun Yun entered together. Scattered throughout the vast space were exquisite small cave dwellings, each containing energy imprints that resonated with each other.

In the very center of that distant space, an exceptionally violent aura seemed to rise from the ground, and a white-robed figure sat cross-legged. Sensing someone entering, he slowly rose to his feet.

He was dressed in a very simple white robe. A gentle breeze blew, and the robe fluttered, giving him an air of otherworldly elegance. He did not look very old. His face did not have the wrinkles that an old person should have. Instead, it was like a piece of warm jade that radiated a soft glow.

"So you are Yun'er's man?" Yunshan smiled gently, stood with his hands behind his back and walked forward, looking Xiao Jue up and down with satisfaction.

"I originally thought Guhe would be a good match for Yun'er, but I never expected that she would meet a young hero like you. A 17-year-old sixth-grade alchemist, your talent far surpasses that of Guhe."

"It's just a pity about Guhe..." Yunshan shook his head regretfully. Guhe died at the hands of a powerful snake-man for the sake of the strange fire. After this matter is over, he will go to the snake-man clan to demand an explanation.

Regardless of right or wrong, it's simply because Guhe died at the hands of the snake people, and they want to give him an explanation.

Xiao Jue cupped his hands and asked, "I wonder how long it will take for Protector Wu to arrive at Yunlan Sect after Senior Yunshan summoned him?"

"I don't know where he is either," Yunshan said. "But how can I prove that he tampered with my soul?"

"Since it was someone from the Soul Palace who helped you break through, why is there any need to prove it?"

An aged figure appeared, looked at Yunshan standing with his hands behind his back, and said, "You only need to tell that hawk that my soul body, Yao Chen, is extremely weak and only has the strength comparable to a Dou Huang left. If you capture it, he will naturally come to die."

Yun Shan's pupils contracted, and he respectfully asked, "Senior, are you the Medicine Venerable of the Starfall Pavilion?"
