Chapter 1431 - 653: Daoist Saint

"Splash!"

A figure flew out from within a spring.

"Is this the Upper Domain?"

It was Chen Xuan.

This place was situated within the mountains, beneath his feet was a pond.

"The Spiritual Qi is somewhat different, purer."

Looking at the Spiritual Power gathered at his fingertips, Chen Xuan murmured, compared to the Supreme Domain, this place was indeed much stronger.

Moreover... he looked up towards the sky, "Is it because it’s closer?"

He felt that cultivating here seemed to be easier.

"Enough, let’s find someone first." He was new to the Upper Domain and quite confused.

A moment later!

"Seventh level of Dao Realm, not bad."

Chen Xuan nodded approvingly, then chose a direction, transformed into a streak of light and vanished.

An hour later, he finally saw a group of people.

Wearing black robes, all of them of high Dao Realm, they seemed to be searching for something.

Chen Xuan concealed himself in an isolated space.

"Brother Qiu, did it really escape to this mountain range? Why hasn’t it left any trace?"

The man referred to as Brother Qiu did not explain but took out a black Spirit Talisman.

"Ah... This is the sect’s Seeking Talisman, then it should be fine, it’s my excess worry."

The man promptly apologized upon seeing the black Spirit Talisman.

Brother Qiu was also satisfied with his attitude, "This was personally crafted by the Ninth Elder, it’s a shame... he passed away in the Lower Realm."

Upon hearing this!

Chen Xuan in the isolated space was momentarily stunned, but the next moment he laughed; wasn’t this destiny?

It turned out these people were from Jidao Mountain.

Immediately, he pointed downwards.

Instantly, these people’s eyes became vacant, and Chen Xuan stepped out of the space, then approached Brother Qiu.

His eyes flashed with a stream of light, and the next moment scenes appeared within his eyes, these were Brother Qiu’s memories.

Jidao Mountain.

Ranked eighth among the top ten sects in the Upper Domain, the last saint.

Called Daoist Saint.

And this Brother Qiu was a True Disciple of Jidao Mountain, endowed with considerable talent, a double eight, ascending to Emperor Realm was expected to be effortless.

"Indeed, the Upper Domain is incomparable in this aspect."

Chen Xuan sighed inwardly.

"Since there is such a destiny, let’s start with this Daoist Saint."

Then Chen Xuan lightly tapped, and Brother Qiu turned to dust, while Chen Xuan transformed into Brother Qiu’s appearance.

Then snapped his fingers, everything returned to normal.

And these people’s eyes instantly regained color.

Just a moment ago, Chen Xuan had frozen time in this place, so these people had no recollection of it.

"Brother Qiu, is the sect’s secret realm about to open?"

The previous man spoke again.

"Hmm!"

Chen Xuan imitated Brother Qiu’s tone.

This secret realm is only accessible to those with double eights, in which one can rapidly advance to the Pseudo-Emperor Realm, after which the Daoist Saint would personally appear to lecture them.

Allowing those who enter the secret realm to reach the Emperor Realm faster.

Thus, those who manage to enter the secret realm nearly all break through to the Emperor Realm.

And for Chen Xuan, this was also the best opportunity, with the leaves given by the New World Tree, he could discreetly eliminate the Daoist Saint, and even take his place.

At this moment, others showed signs of envy.

To them, in this lifetime, there was almost no chance to enter the secret realm.

"In the future, Brother Qiu should take care of us."

"Yes, Brother Qiu, please don’t forget us."

...

Flattery abounds, alike everywhere, these people also wanted to cling to ’Brother Qiu’s’ thigh, only to realize it was now Chen Xuan.

"Rest assured."

"Once the Nine-Tailed Fox is caught, I won’t forget my fellow brothers."

Chen Xuan said with a light chuckle.

"We pledge our utmost effort!"

...

Under Chen Xuan’s control, it only took slightly over half an hour to easily capture the Nine-Tailed Fox, at this point they were on their way back to Jidao Mountain.

"Brother Qiu."

The speaker was named Zhong Yue, who sidled up at that moment.

"What’s up?" Chen Xuan asked.

"Didn’t you previously say you had some interest in my sister? Once we return, I’ll send her to your residence."

Previously he had said he would consider.

But seeing that he was about to enter the secret realm, his attitude immediately changed.

After all, emerging as an Emperor Realm powerhouse.

In the sect, Emperor Realm powerhouses possess vastly different status and treatment.

"Okay."

Chen Xuan replied with a single word, then continued flying forward.

To Zhong Yue, Chen Xuan’s indifference seemed perfectly normal.

He even felt this was correct.

After half a month’s travel, Chen Xuan finally saw Jidao Mountain.

It was situated in mid-air.

Majestic peaks suspended, clouds flowing like streams, this scene left Chen Xuan shocked, feeling like a country bumpkin.

"The Upper Domain is truly the Upper Domain!"

He sighed inwardly, meanwhile, he gazed at the highest peak, its summit shrouded in golden clouds.

That’s where the Daoist Saint resides.

"Well, I’ll take my leave then, fellow brothers."

"Farewell, Brother Qiu!"

Everyone replied in unison.

As a True Disciple, his abode was in the middle of Jidao Mountain, while they were downstream.

In Jidao Mountain, disciples downstream are not permitted to go up.

Watching Chen Xuan’s disappearing figure, these people displayed envy, feeling that middle-river abode has ample Spiritual Qi, making cultivation faster.

But for these people... hoping to reach the middle in this lifetime was difficult.

"Let’s go..."

The group flew towards the bottom-most peak.
