Chapter 1381: Chapter 1352: True Person Zhang
Ning Wangyang was watching Li Chen.
He noticed Li Chen’s expression was somewhat strange, but as to why, he didn’t ask.
He wasn’t a talkative person; more often than not, he was just accustomed to doing things.
However, if given the chance not to work, chatting and drinking with brothers was actually a nice option.
But.
“There’s work to be done.” Li Chen’s expression looked quite peculiar.
“Where to?” Ning Wangyang asked straightforwardly.
“Kunlun Mountains.”
Li Chen’s face remained in a bitter smile, nothing but bitter smiles.
“There, right now, is a large number of Infinite Level powerhouses.”
“Oh.” Ning Wangyang nodded.
At this moment, Li Chen couldn’t help but turn his head to Ning Wangyang: “You aren’t even the slightest bit curious why there’s so many experts?”
“A bit curious.” Ning Wangyang honestly nodded.
“Then aren’t you worried?”
Ning Wangyang nodded again: “A bit, but I’ve gotten used to it. Worrying doesn’t help; when the time comes, I’ll just fight desperately.”
Li Chen sighed silently to himself; he didn’t know how to converse with Ning Wangyang.
Sometimes, he even thought that people as straightforward as Ning Wangyang were quite nice.
But most of the time, Ning Wangyang really disliked relying on his brains.
In summary, he’s single-minded.
He goes about his business, unaffected by the world’s troubles.
To put it in his words: What’s the worst? Just fight desperately.
“Alright, let’s go.” Li Chen looked at Ning Wangyang with some exasperation, then the two no longer hesitated and came out of the forest.
Glancing back at the forest behind him, for some reason, Li Chen felt it might be his last time visiting.
However, to his disappointment, he didn’t see An Cheng and An Xiu and didn’t know how they were doing.
From the dead Infinite Level elder’s words, Li Chen learned they were likely still alive, but where they’d gone, he didn’t know.
Perhaps they’d already reached the outside world?
Li Chen didn’t know, nor did he have time to ponder.
As a professional firefighter, he knew he should now head to the Kunlun Mountains.
Though from what he’d heard, even if he could get there now, he might not be of much use.
“A group of Infinite Level…” Despite his current strength being Great Scorching, Li Chen couldn’t help feeling his scalp numb.
He had no strategies in mind, but he knew he had to go first.
After all, his family was still there.
“Sigh, let’s take it one step at a time.”
…
Kunlun Mountains, a group of powerhouses were tensely eyeing each other.
Of course, this referred only to the experts on the mountain below.
The Infinite Level powerhouses seemed mostly disinterested in speaking to them, quietly lingering in the sky, exchanging occasional words among themselves, but quickly fell silent again.
These powerhouses came from the Main World and also passed through the dimensional gates from minor worlds over there.
Dai Ren, with a few others, returned here, looking at the sky wordlessly.
Initially, he indeed had thoughts of resisting these strong foreigners, but upon seeing their strength, he quickly gave up.
How could they fight?
Even though the Infinite Level powerhouses hadn’t acted, the sheer intensity of their aura made them breathless, let alone fighting.
Although Dai Ren was regarded as a decisive expert, he wouldn’t throw his life away meaninglessly.
“What are they waiting for?” Approaching Wenxing’s side, Dai Ren couldn’t help but ask.
“They’re waiting for the Heavenly Gate Realm passage to open.” Wenxing didn’t speak, but a middle-aged Taoist beside him slowly began to speak.
“Sect Master Dai, this is my senior brother, Prison Star Daoist.” Wenxing introduced upon seeing Dai Ren’s surprised look.
“Prison Star… senior, hello.” Dai Ren’s expression became peculiar upon looking at the middle-aged Taoist, but he still greeted.
While speaking, Dai Ren inexplicably felt a bit oppressed.
After all, he was a sect master, and considered a senior within the Martial Artist World. Yet now he faced a being whose seniority and cultivation surpassed his own. Whether or not he felt stifled, he had to accept it.
“Brother Dai, no need to stand on ceremony, just call me by my Taoist title. We’re all martial artists, and Sect Master Dai is a Great Scorching Expert—let’s treat each other as equals.” Prison Star Daoist carefreely responded.
“Thank you.” Dai Ren silently sighed in relief.
Just then, he remembered what Prison Star had said earlier.
“Brother Prison Star, you mentioned these strong individuals are waiting for the Heavenly Gate Realm passage to open? Does that mean…”
“Exactly.” Prison Star nodded: “We old fellows originally were in our respective places in closed-door cultivation, and apart from the Heavenly Level, there’s nothing else. But unable to comprehend that final barrier, we couldn’t enter the Heavenly Gate Realm passage.”
“Now, because of some special circumstances, the Heavenly Gate Realm passage is about to open, so everyone’s converged here.”
“I see…” Dai Ren nodded.
“Then… how do you discern the Heavenly Gate Realm passage is about to open?” Seven Extremes Ancestor beside couldn’t resist asking.
“No one’s been to the Heavenly Gate Realm.” Prison Star shrugged: “But cultivating for so many years, we’ve become sensitive to the Heavenly Level aura. Such an aura only exists in the Heavenly Gate Realm, so upon sensing it, many of us elder folks rushed over.”
“Brother Prison Star is absolutely right.” At this moment, a voice came from the sky.
An elderly man dressed in a simple white Zhongshan suit approached the group.
“You… you are…” Wudang Sect Leader immediately widened his eyes, looking at the elderly man, full of disbelief.
“Huh?” The elderly man glanced at the Wudang Sect Leader, his eyes showing curiosity: “Are you also my descendant from Wudang?”
“I am, junior… may I know senior…”
Wudang Sect Leader hadn’t finished speaking when Prison Star Daoist laughed: “True Person Zhang, I didn’t expect you to come as well.”
“Can’t help it.” The elderly man shook his head: “Trapped in this realm for hundreds of years, suddenly seeing a glimpse of opportunity, of course, I wouldn’t want to miss it.”
“Hm? Brother Prison Star, isn’t this your junior disciple?” The elderly man suddenly turned to Daoist Wenxing, couldn’t resist speaking.
