Chapter 179: The Unaffiliated Cultivator, Revealing the Divine Secrets with a Single Sentence?!
The cultivations of the few were quite good. In the blink of an eye, two hours had already passed, and they were already in the wilderness.
Here the sky was filled with shining stars. Everything seemed to have become totally visible under the starlight.
Coincidentally, such weather widened everyone’s field of vision. Though, this did not matter to Jiang Yiming. After all, his Supreme Celestial Demon Body could strengthen his body while his cultivation improved, therefore, his eyesight was also different from ordinary people. Even at night, he could clearly see the situation around him.
He did not even need the help of the moonlight to be able to do so.
In front of them was a high cliff. Everyone could see that there seemed to be a figure before them who had his back towards them.
“Oh, as expected of a mysterious unworldly expert. This is really quite interesting!”
When everyone saw the person’s back, they knew that things were not that simple anymore.
The person in their field of vision looked like a Celestial, and he had a long sword on his back.
However, his hair was not white. He did not look like those isolated old men that were aloof from the world.
“Hahahaha! You guys are really here! As expected of the Lingyun Sect, you have solved the problem that I set so quickly.”
“It’s not like that. It’s just that among us, there are some people who happened to know a thing or two about it, which is how we barely managed to solve the problem that you have set. I’m impressed!”
“It’s alright! It’s alright! To be honest, it’s nothing much. It’s just a whim of mine,” That person turned around and spoke directly to the members of the Lingyun Sect. There wasn’t the slightest hint of contempt towards the Lingyun Sect in his words.
Instead, there seemed to be... a sense of praise!
This was something that made Jiang Yiming puzzled. After all, the old man could be considered a person of his generation. Yet, the other party’s reaction didn’t seem to carry any disdain.
No matter which records one looked through, shouldn’t such unworldly experts be aloof and arrogant?!
The person in front of him did not give him this kind of feeling at all!
Could it be that in this world, there was really such a person who had clearly seen through the affairs of the world, but still maintained a modest heart?!
“Please just say it. Since we have been able to find this place, you should also be extremely clear about why we are here!” Jiang Yiming took a deep breath and said.
This was his purpose for finding the old man in the Divine Phoenix Region so late at night!
Regardless of how he looked at it, being able to directly obtain the guidance of this person was something that would guarantee profits and zero losses!
Not only would it allow his disciple to obtain experience, but more importantly, he would also be able to unravel all the existing mysteries within his sect!
This was what their attention was on now!
“The moon tonight is really beautiful, don’t you think so? The wind is tens of thousands of miles long, and the world is one,” The old man recited a poem that sounded really baffling. After which, he finally turned around and looked at the people behind him.
“May I know what you want to tell me? Please just say it!” Jiang Yiming cupped his hands, indicating that the other party needn’t beat around the bush. Since he had decided to come here to ask about relevant matters, he naturally wouldn’t have any objections. He knew that the other party should be an unaffiliated cultivator, so perhaps his way of thought would be different from that of an ordinary cultivator.
“Tonight, when I observed the celestial phenomena, a fierce omen has appeared... Sect leader, you should understand what I mean.”
As the person spoke slowly, Jiang Yiming’s entire body trembled. What exactly did “a fierce omen” mean?
If they were to talk about it, many things were not simple!
“There should be a disciple in the Lingyun Sect who has been somewhat unusual today?”
That’s right, the old man must be talking about Gu Lingfei! Who else could it be other than Gu Lingfei?
“I’m willing to listen to your explanation. What exactly is the reason?”
If it was really as he said, then Gu Lingfei must be a genius!
It was just that they hadn’t been able to discover it before!
The heavens were really helping him! It seems like the constitution of his eldest disciple was vastly different from that of an ordinary person! After awakening, Jiang Yiming reckoned that Gu Lingfei’s strength will be greatly improved. Perhaps, there would be a second Incarnation Realm cultivator in the Lingyun Sect today!
Thinking of this, how could Jiang Yiming not be excited?
“To be honest, I can’t help you much. I can only point out a path for you,” It seemed that the situation ahead was still shrouded in a thick fog. The help that the old man could provide wouldn’t be able to directly solve the problem.
However, it did not matter. As long as the old man could point out a direction for him, he would definitely have a way to solve it!
“I can’t give you anything either. It’s just that within your sect, if I’m not wrong, there should be... a map fragment.”
To think the old man could know of such information!
Everyone’s bodies trembled. Even Jiang Yiming was in disbelief. Could it be that his speculations had been correct? ! Were these matters all inextricably linked?!
If there really was a connection between these matters, then what was the background of his eldest disciple, Gu Lingfei?!
From what he had learned, the incomplete map was a picture of an ancient demonic god!
If that was really the case, then what level of combat power would his eldest disciple have?!
“There’s still one most important part missing from your map fragment. Do you know what this is?” That person had an unfathomable look as he said.
Jiang Yiming naturally didn’t know what the other party meant. However, as long as he had a hint, he would think of a way to solve this matter.
“If that’s really the case, are you saying that the problem in my sect isn’t that simple?” Jiang Yiming was a little confused. He had thought that this matter could be easily solved, but that didn’t seem to be the case. The other party’s puzzle after puzzle seemed to be luring him into an endless abyss.
In the abyss, he seemed to be able to see many ways out in the surroundings, but it was as if each and every one of them was shrouded in fog.
He could only get some more information from the words of the person in front of him.
