Chapter 1394 The Youth in Black
At the same time,
On a barren hillside,
The East Divine Master sat cross-legged on a huge rock, occasionally looking into the distance, his mood far from calm.
Beside the East Divine Master,
Sat a young man in black clothes,
The black-clothed youth had distinguished features and an extraordinary demeanor. On his body, faint dao patterns appeared intermittently. These patterns were extraordinarily mysterious, and when combined, they seemed to form terrifying talismans that resonated with the great dao of heaven and earth, emitting an extremely imposing aura!
At this moment,
His indifferent expression formed a stark contrast with the somewhat anxious East Divine Master.
“Being anxious is useless! If you want to save your daughter, we can only take a risky approach!”
The black-clothed youth spoke slowly.
The East Divine Master exhaled a long breath, shifting his gaze toward the black-clothed youth with a somewhat complicated expression.
Back then,
He had been surrounded and attacked by powerful cultivators from the three major forces. Although he had desperately used a teleportation talisman to escape, he was severely injured and nearly died!
Just when he was in utter despair, thinking he couldn’t escape, this black-clothed youth appeared before his eyes!
“Young brother, save me!”
The East Divine Master lay on the ground, covered in blood, calling out weakly.
But the black-clothed youth didn’t even look at him, simply walking past toward the distance.
“I am the Divine Master of East Divine Mountain. If you save me today, you will be generously rewarded in the future!”
The East Divine Master said with a face full of despair.
Upon hearing these words, the black-clothed youth actually paused his steps. His cold expression changed, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He came to his side, crouched down, and asked:
“You are the Divine Master of East Divine Mountain?”
“That’s right. As long as I can survive this calamity, my East Divine Mountain will certainly not treat you poorly!”
The East Divine Master’s voice trembled uncontrollably.
The black-clothed youth fell silent upon hearing this.
He stood up and looked into the distance, lost in thought. After a long while, he said something that would be unforgettable for the rest of the Divine Master’s life, in a calm yet arrogant tone:
“Who wants to kill you? Take me there, I’ll eliminate them for you!”
Heaven knows,
How explosive the East Divine Master’s mindset was at that moment!
If he hadn’t been severely injured, he would have truly wanted to say, aren’t you being a bit too overconfident?
In the end,
At the East Divine Master’s strong insistence,
The black-clothed youth changed his mind, brought him here, helped heal his wounds, and protected his safety!
During this time,
He had been trying to contact his father, the Absolute Heaven Saint,
But this place was Sky City, and there were too many powerful cultivators searching for his traces outside, so he couldn’t leave for the time being!
As time passed,
The East Divine Master’s mindset became increasingly stable. Unexpectedly, last night, news that his daughter had been captured suddenly reached his ears, completely shattering his hard-won composure. He immediately shouted about going to rescue his daughter!
At the critical moment,
It was this black-clothed youth who stopped him, and clearly stated that he had a plan that might save Murong Youru!
The strategy was to first set up a trap formation, lure the powerful cultivators from the three major forces, capture them alive, and then exchange them for Murong Youru!
The plan wasn’t particularly brilliant!
But it was indeed the only chance they had now!
Otherwise, in his current condition, trying to directly confront the three major forces was completely impossible!
“Young brother, we’ve been together for quite some days now. Who exactly are you? Are you really helping me, risking confrontation with the three major forces, just for the reward I mentioned?”
The East Divine Master couldn’t help but ask.
He had originally thought the black-clothed youth was just an ordinary rogue cultivator, but after spending several days together, he discovered that he couldn’t see through the youth. Moreover, when the black-clothed youth practiced cultivation, it was always very mysterious, with many terrifying ancient symbols surrounding his body.
That brilliant and mysterious scene was incredibly imposing, making him feel an inexplicable trepidation!
As if the person before him wasn’t a youth,
But an ancestor who had lived for countless tens of thousands of years!
“What do you think?”
The black-clothed youth asked in return.
“Regardless, you’ve helped me! As long as I can survive, you will be an honored guest of my East Divine Mountain in the future!”
The East Divine Master said with sincere gratitude.
“I don’t care about being some honored guest of a divine mountain. I’m helping you only because you once helped my junior brother, nothing more.”
The black-clothed youth responded indifferently.
“Junior brother?”
The East Divine Master was stunned,
Not understanding what the black-clothed youth meant.
When had he helped the black-clothed youth’s junior brother?
The East Divine Master wanted to inquire further,
But just then, the sound of something cutting through the air broke the silence. The gray-clothed man who had appeared in the south of the city earlier rushed over!
“Master, I did as you instructed! The people from the three major forces are right behind me, they should arrive soon!”
The gray-clothed man came to the black-clothed youth’s side and said respectfully.
This scene appeared quite strange!
Because the gray-clothed man had white hair and a weathered face, looking like a cultivator who had lived for countless years, yet he was now calling a young man “Master.”
“Did you catch any big fish?”
The black-clothed youth asked.
“No! Among those who followed, the strongest is merely a cultivator who has condensed a celestial body, probably an Elder from a divine mountain!”
The gray-clothed man replied respectfully.
The black-clothed youth frowned slightly upon hearing this, then smiled lightly:
“No matter, trading one Elder for a woman, I believe they will be willing…”
Just as his words fell!
“Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh!”
Several sounds of air being cut came from the distant horizon!
A full thirty to forty powerful cultivators rushed over, surrounding the hillside completely. Leading them was an old man with surging blood energy, piercing eyes, and an imposing aura emanating from his entire body!
This person was none other than the Elder of West Divine Mountain—Li Chonghai!
“Hehe… East Divine Master, long time no see! I never expected you to be hiding in such a desolate place!”
Li Chonghai fixed his gaze directly on the East Divine Master, his aged face filled with a smug smile.
As for the black-clothed youth and the gray-clothed man,
He chose to ignore them!
The black-clothed youth looked young, so how strong could he be?
And although the gray-clothed man was older, his aura was concealed, making him seem like an ordinary old man—clearly a weakling!
“Li Chonghai, you dare to ambush me, capture my daughter, and seize my Elder. Have you considered the consequences if my father finds out?”
As the saying goes, the sight of an enemy makes one’s blood boil!
The East Divine Master looked at Li Chonghai with frost covering his face and immediately shouted loudly.
Back then,
This person had participated in the attempt to kill him!
“Facing death yet still daring to threaten me? Truly absurd!”
Li Chonghai sneered, directly waving his hand to signal his many subordinates to surround and kill the East Divine Master.
Unexpectedly, at that moment,
“Rumble rumble!”
Hundreds and thousands of terrifying dao symbols suddenly appeared around the small hillside. The symbols covered the sky and earth, enveloping this area and forming a supreme trap formation that created an alternate dimensional space!
Behind them,
Lin Feng, who had been following, witnessed this sudden development and his expression changed slightly.
He extended his vast divine sense, trying to explore the situation within the alternate dimension, but found he couldn’t see through it. His immense divine sense was blocked by the symbols emanating an ancient aura!
Even his true form would find it difficult to break in within a short time!
“Which heaven-defying figure is helping the East Divine Master?”
Lin Feng’s eyes flickered slightly, but he wasn’t worried!
This formation was obviously set up by the East Divine Master’s side!
