Chapter 328: Something Wrong! (1/2)
The night was peaceful like it was every day. Occasionally, a few disciples who were on patrol could be seen surveying their surroundings. No one who expected that in this night, there would be 2 Great Ascension Realm expert dropping in!
“Senior Brother! Let’s split ways! I believe those old fellows in Kunlun would not appear here.” After they reached the mountain top, Qing Yuanzi suggested.
Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might...let's just hope it doesn't come to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.
Normally speaking, those Late Stage Great Ascension expert would head over to the sect forbidden area to seclude themselves in order to prepare for their upcoming tribulation. Therefore, they would never make any moves easily. If they were to be injured in the process, it was very likely for them to fail the tribulation.
Thus, Middle Stage Great Ascension expert could be counted as the strongest existence traveling around. Qing Yuanzi and Qing Xu duo were both in the Middle Stage Great Ascension Realm. As long as those old fellows in the sect wouldn’t appear, there were basically no dangers for them.
Even so, they still had to be on guard. After all, those old fellows weren’t vegetarian. It was especially so for those loose immortal experts.
“Sure! I will start from the left peak while you start from the right peak.” Qing Xu nodded.
Kunlun’s main peak was Yunxiao Peak. Other than that, they still had other peaks that were placed in charge by their elders. They were Yunzi Peak, Yunzhu Peak, Yunhai Peak, Yunqing Peak, Yunshui Peak, Yunxuan Peak, and Yunmu Peak.
Qing Xu arrived before the Yunzi Peak. Compared to their main peak, the grandeur emitted from this place was a lot worst off. Qing Xu did not head into the main hall because that was the residence of an elder.
In fact, in all sect, especially for those big sects, every peak signifies an elder within the sect. They would recruit their own disciple, had their own cultivating location, medicine herb field and etc.
Therefore, there would be a lot of disciples at every peak. However, each elder would only have a limited amount of direct disciples. The other disciples couldn’t be counted as the elder disciple but someone who lived in the peak.
Just like Qing Xu’s Extreme Heaven’s Peak. Although it had been many years since he accepted a direct disciple, it didn’t mean that there was no one else in the Extreme Heaven Peak. There were still lots of disciple in the Extreme Heavens Peak who would help him do those odd jobs, run errands, cultivating the medical herbs and etc. Basically, there was still quite a substantial amount of disciple living in his peak.
Among these disciples, the majority of them belonged to those newly recruited outer disciples. And depending on their status, the area they stayed at would differ.
The residence of outer disciples and ordinary disciples were separated. While the outer disciples would stay together, ordinary disciples had their own residence.
Only direct disciples had a lot of freedom. They would usually be able to get a residential area that was filled with dense spiritual qi.
It was to the point that those outstanding disciple would even be able to possess a peak alone. Those peaks couldn’t be compared to those elder peaks but for it to be possessed by a person only helps to further signify the person strength and was also a glory.
Qing Xu and Qing Yuanzi were looking for Nascent Soul cultivators that were 200 years old and below. Such disciples could never be found in these ordinary disciples but as the direct disciples of those dealers.
Hence, Qing Xu observed the buildings in Yunzi Peak for a while before deciding to search around. It was impossible for them to rush straight into the elder’s residence. Although those elders were younger than them by a generation and had a weaker cultivation level, it was still impossible for him to kill them. Therefore, if the elders were to send out any signal, they would not be able to accomplish their tonight’s mission.
Qing Xu released his spiritual sense as he searched around the peak. However, even after he had fully searched the Yunzi Peak, he was unable to locate any Nascent Soul disciples.
In Qing Xu’s opinion, not every elder would have such an outstanding disciple. It was very normal for a peak not to have any. Subsequently, Qing Xu left the Yunzi Peak and flew towards Yunzhu Peak.
However, after he had finished scanning the Yunzhu Peak, he was still unable to locate any Nascent Soul cultivators. It was to the point that there weren’t even any golden core realm disciples as well!
Qing Xu didn’t place much attention to it. On the contrary, he was more than happy to witness such a scene. For this to happen only meant that there weren’t many experts in Kunlun. If so, the chances of Cheng Yu would be higher. How could he not be happy?
Followingly, he flew towards Yunhai Peak and Yunqing Peak. Similarly, he was unable to locate any Nascent Soul cultivators. Only then did Qing Xu felt something was wrong.
Currently, he couldn’t even detect any Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, much less those which were 200 years old and below. This was somewhat outrageous. No matter what, Kunlun was one of the ten great sects in the cultivation world. How could they not have even one Nascent Soul disciple?
“Senior Brother! Did you manage to find any? Why did I feel something fishy is going on?” This moment, Qing Yuanzi had also searched the other 4 peaks.
“You are also unable to find any?” Qing Xu frowned.
“That’s right! Looks like they are prepared. The day after tomorrow is the challenge. They couldn’t be employing another scheme right?” Qing Yuanzi spoke with worries.
“You are saying they had long figured out that we would be coming and had safeguarded their Nascent Soul disciples?” Qing Xu also knew that something fishy was going on. If they had really done so, it would be hard for them to locate anyone.
“I’m afraid it was not only so!” Qing Yuanzi replied.
“What do you mean?” Qing Xu enquired confusedly.
