Chapter 2011. The Bell Rings on Top of Mount Gu Dao (1/2)

In the land of the Ancient Dao, the restriction valley hidden inside the mountains, the pool in the plain, and the huge underground burial ground were three places containing great fortune. Xuan Luo had prepared these three places for his disciple, for Wang Lin.

In the mountains stood Wang Lin and Xuan Luo’s figures. Their figures also appeared outside the pool and inside the burial ground.

The pool on the plain contained powerful killing intent, and Wang Lin immersed himself inside for three months!

Xuan Luo stayed outside the pool the whole time. While protecting Wang Lin, he also silently looked at his disciple and revealed a kind smile.

The cliffs of the valley were engraved with runes, and each contained restrictions. As the years passed, the valley slowly became a famous place in the Ancient Dao: the prestigious Restriction Valley!

Ordinary people couldn’t enter as this place had been sealed by Xuan Luo hundreds of years ago. It became a place he especially prepared for his disciple to comprehend the restriction essence.

Wang Lin comprehended for three months inside the Restriction Valley.

There was another very mysterious place in the Ancient Dao. It was an underground burial ground. No bodies were buried here, but it was filled with abandoned treasures. They were useless and had no value, but at an unknown time, someone had buried them here like a sacrifice.

Due to the existence of the treasures, this area was enveloped in the power of the five elements. This aura had become more and more dense until the aura of essences began to appear.

Wang Lin also sat in this burial ground for three months. He was unwilling, but he decisively stopped absorbing the five elements essences and left with Xuan Luo.

In the Ancient Shi, Wang Lin saw the Grand Empyrean of the Ancient Shi. He went to three places to cultivate and comprehend. This lasted for five months.

In the Ancient Ji, Wang Lin didn’t see the Grand Empyrean but went to various places across the 12 countries to comprehend for nearly half a year.

In a flash, from when Wang Lin and Xuan Luo left the Ancient Dao imperial city, it had been one and a half years.

In this one and a half year period, Wang Lin faced no danger and didn’t have to struggle between life or death. He just had to absorb essences and increase his cultivation level.

He didn’t have to think too much, as everything was taken care of by his teacher, Xuan Luo!

Wang Lin could feel that Xuan Luo was really treating him as a direct disciple without any schemes. The warm gaze Xuan Luo gave him when he cultivated felt like home.

Wang Lin hadn’t experienced this much in his life, but the more rare it was, the more he cherished it. He cherished this time, he cherished Xuan Luo as his teacher, and he cherished these rare moments of happiness in his life.

In his heart, he wanted times like these to continue forever. Wang Lin could even ignore the suppression from the Ancient Dao Emperor.

“Teacher has treated me this well… I must protect the Ancient Dao…”Wang Lin said in his heart once more.

He cared a lot about his relationships. Xuan Luo had helped him in the cave world and was his teacher. He saw all of it and remembered it in his heart.

He didn’t want to disappoint Xuan Luo.

One and half years of travel ended this way. After the two had gone through most of the Ancient clan, Wang Lin and Xuan Luo arrived at Mount Gu Dao!

Mount Gu Dao was the intersection of the three ancient clans and where Grand Empyrean Gu Dao was!

This mountain was also referred to as the holy mountain and holy land. All of this was because of Grand Empyrean Gu Dao.

Below Mount Gu Dao, even Xuan Lou became respectful. He didn’t fly or teleport up, but walked up the this holy mountain like a mortal with Wang Lin.

These steps seemed to lead to the sky and were covered by clouds. One could not see the end, but a vague shadow could be made out.

At the bottom of the mountain, Xuan Luo walked in front and kindly looked back at Wang Lin. “If Grand Empyrean Gu Dao sees you, remember to be respectful. Grand Empyrean Gu Dao is a senior, and even Teacher has to bow to him.”

“Teacher, rest assured, Disciple understands.” Wang Lin’s expression was serious and his heart felt warm. Along the way, Xuan Luo had admonished him a lot like a real old man who was worried about his descendant making a mistake. Even though Xuan Luo had the appearance of a young man and didn’t look much older than Wang Lin.

“Grand Empyrean Gu Dao is someone who came from the same era as the Ancient Ancestor and is also the guardian of the Ancient clan. If he didn’t exist, I fear my Ancient clan would have been devoured by the celestial clan and would no longer exist.” Xuan Luo looked up at Mount Gu Dao with respect coming from his heart.
