Chapter 1012: 1012

The spiritual qi was like a sea pouring over them . All their pores opened and greedily absorbed it .

Long Chen was shocked to find that the spiritual qi in the Xuantian Dao Sect wasn’t just dense; it also seemed to contain something he had never felt before . He was unable to describe it .

Seeing this huge gate open before them, the hundred thousand disciples were incomparably excited . They followed Mu Qingxuan inside . As for the disciples outside, they could only watch as those figures disappeared within the sect . Then the thick gate closed tightly .

Long Chen and the others followed Mu Qingxuan along a long path . The sides of the paths were lined with ancient trees thrumming with vitality .

Dozens of miles in, a plaza appeared . The plaza was huge, several times bigger than the entire branch sect of the Eastern Wasteland . It was also much grander .

At the center was a huge statue of a man . It was simple and majestic, seeming like a G.o.d overlooking the sky .

They were surprised that the sea of people they had expected to see inside never appeared . Instead, there was only a single, long-haired man in the plaza . He stood there like a javelin planted in the ground, patiently waiting for them to get closer .

His expression was icy, and faint runes were revolving in his eyes . Standing there, he gave off a dark feeling despite not having any of his aura leak .

“Greetings, senior apprentice-brother Su Mo . ” Mu Qingxuan bowed slightly .

“It’s been hard on you junior apprentice-sister Qingxuan . Leave the rest to me . ” The man called Su Mo returned the bow . His tone was refined and courteous, but also felt a bit icy . A faint killing intent pervaded the air around him .

“This is a true expert . ” Long Chen’s pupils shrank . He sensed immense pressure from this person, a pressure that was even greater than what he felt from the Elders .

Although Long Chen couldn’t sense his aura, he was able to sense the Foundation Forging realm’s spiritual fluctuations . However, the reason why Long Chen felt that this man had to be incredibly powerful was because of the killing intent resting within the depths of his soul .

He had to be an expert who had slaughtered countless people . His killing intent permeated every single one of his cells . Even when he spoke calmly, his killing intent leaked out .

Mu Qingxuan said, “Then I’ll leave it up to you . I’ll take my leave . ”

After saying that, she waved her hand and left them all blankly standing there .

Su Mo looked over them and shook his head . A fleeting emotion flashed in his eyes for too short of a time to see clearly, but Long Chen knew it was a kind of pity .

However, when Su Mo’s gaze swept over the Dragonblood Legion, his eyes brightened slightly . His gaze suddenly stopped on Long Chen, and his eyes were like sharp blades that could see through his heart .

Despite his electric gaze, Long Chen simply looked back at him without revealing the slightest emotion .

Su Mo’s icy mouth curled into a smile . He nodded slightly . “Not bad, there are at least a few decent ones . ”

Everyone was startled, not understanding what he was saying . But the pressure they felt from him made it so they didn’t dare to ask .

“Let me introduce myself . I am Su Mo, a disciple from the previous generation . Ten years ago, I stood here just like you . Looking at you, I remember countless faces full of antic.i.p.ation and hope . However, now that ten years have pa.s.sed and I stand here once more, the majority of those people have been buried beneath the ground,” said Su Mo .

Ignoring their shocked expressions, he continued, “First, let me congratulate you . You’ve pa.s.sed the initial trials and become a disciple of the Xuantian Dao Sect . Some of you relied on your talent to pa.s.s, and some relied on luck . But either way, those are still your strengths and there’s nothing wrong about either . However, this is just the first step . The trials you’ve pa.s.sed are for the outer sect, so right now, you are outer sect disciples . My mission is to lead you to the next trial, the trial for the inner sect . ”

“The inner sect trial!” All the disciples were excited, especially those disciples who were more talented . They almost couldn’t wait .
