Chapter 344 - The Mysterious Sacred Leader Qinglong (1/2)
The Martial Serendipity Pavilion was a famous forbidden area in the lower district.
That being said, no one would expect it to be floating high up in the sky while observing the events taking place at the Qinglong Sacred Area.
...Meanwhile, on the fifth-layer of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion...
On the fifth-layer stood an old man, a middle-aged man, and an old woman.
If Qin Nan were to be here, he would discover them to be the examiners of the first, second, and third rounds of the trial.
In front of the three stood a young man with a blurred face, preventing anyone from seeing his face.
“Hehe, this young lad. Previously, I was aware of his talents with just a glimpse!” The examiner of the first round of the trial said with a spooky smile, “Too bad that he’s not a woman…”
“Huh, didn’t he give you a great shock?” The middle-aged man said with a hollow laugh.
“Are you guys seriously arguing over something like that?” The old woman was left speechless, before she then glanced at the young man and said in a respectful tone, “Master, we’ve been waiting for a thousand years. Now that the extraordinary presence of the Canglan Continent has finally appeared, what shall we do? Should we help him? After all, the reward we gave him when he completed the trial of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion was not enough at all.”
“Reward?” Although no one could see the young man’s face, they could feel him smiling as he said, “Previously, an Arcane Realm Stone was more than enough to fulfill his needs. Gifting someone is a process, in which you must first know what the person needs, then fulfill the requirements, that would be the best case scenario. As for helping him, he won’t need our assistance for the time being. We should just observe him secretly and witness how he grows stronger.”
“I am confident that when he gradually grows stronger, he will attract the attention from the other side. Therefore, our task is to conceal his secrets and prevent the people there from discovering his existence for as long as possible, so he can have sufficient time to grow stronger!”
“Affirmative!”
The three examiners groaned.
The young man stared into the sky and let out a sigh, “A cultivator can only cultivate by communicating with the Heavens and Earth through a Martial Spirit. Canglan isn’t benevolent, the world isn’t benevolent…”
Following the sigh, the silhouette of the Martial Serendipity Pavilion eventually vanished in the sky, without anyone being aware of its appearance.
……
……
Sacred Leader Qinglong had achieved the Martial Sacred Realm; the power he possessed had completely surpassed Qin Nan’s understanding.
Qin Nan could only feel his breathing stopping for a while, and the next thing he knew, he was brought to another place.
It was a residence with a circumference of over ten zhang that was clean and tidy with a simple appearance. A few strange flowers with brilliant colors could be seen, emitting mysterious auras. What caught his eye the most was a table made of stone in the midst of the flowers; its surface was similar to the surface of a pond of clean water, with light dots forming a chessboard on it.
“Sacred Leader Qinglong, I’m really curious, what do you know? Who exactly are you?”
Qin Nan was not at all interested in his surroundings as he immediately asked the questions in his mind.
His Martial Spirit was extremely important to him; he did not want his secrets to be exposed.
“I’m afraid I can’t tell you yet.” Sacred Leader Qinglong spoke in a calm tone, “Your cultivation right now is not strong enough. I can only tell you after you have reached the peak of the Martial Ancestor Realm!”
Can’t tell yet?
Qin Nan’s eyes turned cold.
Did you think you could trick me just because you are a Martial Sacred Realm expert?
Sacred Leader Qinglong wore a friendly smile, as if he was not concerned with Qin Nan’s anger, “Don’t be so hot-tempered, calm yourself. Although I cannot tell you everything, I can still reveal a bit. I have no intention of harming you. In fact, you have to trust me; I’m afraid that I’m the person friendliest to you that you will find among the Heavens and Earth.”
“The friendliest person?”
Qin Nan could not help but laugh.
This Sacred Leader Qinglong possessed a secretive background, but he was not willing to tell me everything, despite knowing my secrets.
And now he was saying that he possessed no intention to harm me and was the friendliest person I would find?
