Chapter: 1134 (1/2)

AST 1134 – Blue Clouds Sect, Seal of Xuantian, Heaven Seal of First Wave

“Martial Senior Uncle, Martial Junior Uncle and Martial Brother, this is Qing Shui, whom I have been talking about. This is Miss Ruyan. Brother, these are my martial senior uncle, martial junior uncle and martial brother!” Qiu Feng introduced them with a smile.

“Welcome, young man. We have seen you long ago. We didn’t expect the young man that Qiu Feng has frequently mentioned was actually you. It’s a great fortune to meet you here today. You are a genius from heaven. This is indeed a pleasure,” the refined old man, who was oldest in age among them, laughed to Qing Shui.

“Old man, you are flattering me,” Qing Shui responded with a smile. His understanding of these people from the Formation Immortal Sect was not even the tip of the iceberg, so he didn’t know what to say either. The old man could recognize him probably because they had seen him during his fight with the Beitang Clan.

“Brother, we are part of the Formation Immortal Sect. Wait until we’ve crossed to the other side and I’ll tell you some of the things you want to know. When Brother and Miss Ruyan stay over here for a few days, be cautious of any challenges from other people.” Qiufeng jumped into the conversation with a smile when he noticed Qing Shui’s discomfort.

“Oh? Challenges? Why would they pick a fight?” Qing Shui had heard Qiufeng mentioning that some people would be snatching cores last time. Could it be that it had something to do with these challenges?

“There’s an unwritten rule here. At every teleportation array, the people who are heading towards the other four continents may challenge someone at the other teleportation arrays and start a fight. The loser follows the winner. This is only limited to people from the five continents who are heading towards the other four continents.” Qiufeng sounded pretty glum when he explained this rule.

“There’s still such a rule like this?” Qing Shui was feeling especially glum too. This was completely putting strength above all else. Were they not treating humans as human? Although he knew that the World of the Nine Continents was cruel, he didn’t expect that it would be this downright cruel.

“I know right? So there will definitely be someone who wants to bring you back. I’ve heard about you from Martial Senior and Junior Uncles, so I’m still not that worried.” Qiufeng smiled at Qing Shui.

“Just because I am a little young?” Qing Shui asked with a laugh.

“That’s right. Age reflects the standard of talent.”

“What if the loser doesn’t follow them back?” Qing Shui asked curiously.

“Then the winner has the right to kill the loser…….”

“I understand. It’ll be fine,” Qing Shui chuckled.

Qiufeng brought Qing Shui and Yu Ruyan to greet the rest of the people before they went to search for the cave dwelling. The cave dwellings here were all at about more than ten metres high in the mountain wall. They had already gone into one earlier. This cave dwelling wasn’t too wide and had no pillars in it. The ceiling was dome shaped and the stony surface was smooth, as if it had been peeled by a knife. The interior design however, was about the same as a normal house. The bed, table and chairs were all made of stone. The layers of beast leather cushions on them were very thick and brand new.

“Brother, see if this place is to your liking,” Qiufeng said after bringing Qing Shui and Yu Ruyan to take a look around here.

“It’s great. I have troubled you, Brother,” Qing Shui said happily. He was very satisfied with the place here. The interior design suited his taste very well. It kind of made him feel like picking a place like this to live in the future. It was said that the people who stayed in the big mountains lived in places like this. They were sturdy, waterproof, coldproof and could keep the wild beasts away.

There were two bedrooms, one living room and one kitchen here. It was neither too spacious here nor too narrow. However, there weren’t too many bedrooms so it was best for two people to live in. Most people lived in it alone, since there weren’t too many people coming here and they were not ordinary people either.

“This place is quite decent. We should build this kind of house in the future too.” Qing Shui pulled Yu Ruyan and took a look around here.

“Hehe, it’s not bad. But are you thinking of living in seclusion?” Yu Ruyan chuckled.

“It’s still fine for all of us to live in a place like this for a month or half a year.” Qing Shui pondered and laughed.

“Qing Shui, do you think anyone will come and challenge us?” Yu Ruyan and Qing Shui took a seat on the couch after taking a look around here. Although everything here was made of stone, they had no sharp edges. All of them were rounded and most importantly, they were padded and layered with thick cushions. It was extremely comfortable and fluffy. The weather was extremely frigid around this area so it was quite warm inside the cave dwelling.

“Who knows? Does it make a difference if they come? If they come, I will beat them and chase them away,” Qing Shui said indifferently. He really wasn’t bothered by this.

……….

Before they could realize it, they had already stayed here for a week. Other than cultivating, they explored around. Life was quite peaceful. It was only three days before the Ancient Great Formation activates. Tantai Xuan had yet to show up. This made Qing Shui very depressed.

Tantai Xuan was a very important person in his journey to the other four continents. Having a few more friends over there would be a great advantage.

Qing Shui and Yu Ruyan chatted with some people at the mountain valley today. These people were all from different places in the five continents. All of them were chieftains in their regions. The youngest among them was already 130 years old.

These people would join the Formation Immortal Sect when they reached the other four continents.Qiufeng didn’t directly tell Qing Shui to join, he instead dropped some hints. But Qing Shui didn’t give any response to that. He wasn’t ready to join that sect yet. If he had such intention in the future, he wouldn’t mind joining the Formation Immortal Sect. Since he had been studying formations, the Formation Immortal Sect should have quite a number of formations.

Just at this moment, more than ten silhouettes were sighted in the distance. In the blink of an eye, they were already in the sky right above them. Qing Shui lifted his head to look at them and laughed, “The ones who ought to show up have indeed showed up after all.”

Among this crowd of people, two of those Qing Shui spotted were the old men dressed in crystal blue robes from the other day. The most conspicuous one among the remaining few people was a man that looked like a little giant. He had the appearance of a middle aged man and was as strongly built as a bear.
