Chapter 840: Can We Start Now?
After the two turned around, Licentiate Lu "belatedly realized" it, turned to look, and a touch of joy appeared on his face.
"It's Senior Brother Wan!"
"That's great, Senior Brother Wan is fine; he shook off those five Integration Stage interceptors."
Under the gaze of the three, the figure in the distance quickly became clear, and in the blink of an eye, arrived before the three.
"Daoist Friend Wan."
"Junior Brother Wan."
"Senior Brother Wan."
The three hurriedly gathered around Wang Jianqiang.
"Daoist Friend Wan, you aren't hurt, are you?"
Long Er searched Wang Jianqiang's body, her face full of concern.
Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head.
"Junior Brother Wan, you actually shook off those five Integration Stage cultivators; it is truly incredible."
Wen Ya looked at Wang Jianqiang, her face full of amazement and relief.
Upon hearing this, a flash of lingering fear crossed Wang Jianqiang's face, "Everything was just luck."
Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Wen Ya and Long Er hurriedly focused, wearing expressions of listening intently.
Wang Jianqiang smiled and said, "The location where I entered the Wuyin Mountain Range happened to be the territory of a Great Demon, and I was targeted by the Great Demon as soon as I appeared."
"Originally, I thought I was surely going to die, but I didn't expect those five to follow me in."
"It seems that upon sensing those five were more threatening than me, the Great Demon and its many subordinates did not attack me, but instead launched an attack on those five."
"I took advantage of the chaos to flee, and that is how I luckily managed to escape."
Hearing Wang Jianqiang's explanation, Wen Ya and Long Er revealed expressions of sudden realization.
Just at this moment.
Wang Jianqiang's voice came again, "Those five were only entangled and cannot get away for the time being; we had best leave quickly."
"Otherwise, once those five break free, we will still be caught."
Hearing this.
Wen Ya and Long Er both had their expressions tighten.
"Set off immediately and return to the sect."
……
During the rest of the journey.
The four did not encounter any more rule-breaking powerhouses, and without any surprises or dangers, they returned to the territory belonging to the Beast Taming Sect at the fastest speed.
This evening.
Just as Wang Jianqiang and the others arrived outside the mountain gate of the Beast Taming Sect, a figure suddenly flashed out without warning.
The person who arrived was middle-aged in appearance, with a face like polished jade.
The moment he saw this middle-aged man, Wang Jianqiang's heart skipped a beat.
Wen Tiansheng, Sect Master of the Beast Taming Sect, a Great Vehicle Early Stage cultivator!
He had the Mountain and River Fate-Extinguishing Map to conceal himself, which even Great Vehicle Stage cultivators could not see through.
But the Magic Treasure for concealment on Mu Lingxi was the one Xiaobai had gifted him back then, which could only deceive Void Refinement Stage cultivators.
If a Great Vehicle Stage cultivator observed carefully, they would definitely be able to see through it.
Mu Lingxi seemed to also sense the power of the newcomer and stood at the very back without saying a word.
What made the two feel fortunate was that after Wen Tiansheng appeared, he did not pay attention to Mu Lingxi.
After his gaze paused on Wen Ya and Long Er, he looked directly at Wang Jianqiang, a gentle smile appearing on his face, "You are Wan Guiyuan, right?"
"Disciple Wan Guiyuan pays respects to the Sect Master."
Wang Jianqiang hurriedly bowed to Wen Tiansheng.
Wen Tiansheng smiled and nodded, "Originally, I thought that in this Spirit Ranking Battle, only Yuan Xiuya had a chance to make it onto the Spirit Ranking, and furthermore, my expectations for him were only outside the top ten."
"I didn't expect that Yuan Xiuya would fail to make the list, but instead, you entered the Spirit Ranking and gave me a big surprise."
"The Sect Master overpraises me; it is all because of the sect's good teaching that I, Wan Guiyuan, am who I am today."
Wang Jianqiang smiled reservedly, then continued, "Senior Brother Yuan Xiuya is actually very hardworking too, it's just that his luck was a bit worse."
Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Wen Tiansheng looked at him with a smile that was not quite a smile.
Wang Jianqiang's expression was calm.
Wen Tiansheng shook his head and laughed, "His luck was indeed a bit worse, but with you here, whether he can enter the Spirit Ranking is no longer important."
"The Fortune Power on your body is enough to become the most stable foundation on the path of the Beast Taming Sect's rise."
"Sect Master, we were attacked by unknown powerhouses on the way back." Just then, Wen Ya looked at Wen Tiansheng, her expression cold and stern.
After Wen Ya, Long Er added indignantly, "These people are too hateful; Daoist Friend Wan almost perished at their hands. The Sect Master must teach them a good lesson."
Hearing the words of Wen Ya and Long Er, the smile on Wen Tiansheng's face slowly faded, and he nodded with a serious expression, "After you stepped into the territory of the Beast Taming Sect, Elder Wu had already returned to the sect a step ahead and mentioned this matter to me."
"The force that took action is called the Xuanfeng Sect, a second-rate force in the south of Youzhou."
"Rest assured, since this Xuanfeng Sect dared to openly violate the rules of the Spirit Ranking Battle, there is no need for it to exist."
"I will deal with this Xuanfeng Sect."
After speaking, Wen Tiansheng's gaze returned to Wang Jianqiang.
A gentle smile appeared on his face again, but deep within this smile, one could clearly see a touch of hard-to-conceal excitement.
"Wan Guiyuan, integrate the Fortune Power on your body into the mountain gate of the Beast Taming Sect."
Wang Jianqiang nodded upon hearing this.
With a flash of his figure, he appeared above the Beast Taming Sect.
With a shift of his intent, a massive golden dragon, fifty-eight thousand zhang in length, appeared in the sky.
It illuminated the entire sky of the Beast Taming Sect in gold.
This golden dragon was formed from the Fortune Power of Youzhou, connecting with the heaven and earth of Youzhou.
The moment it appeared, winds rose and clouds surged, with auspicious clouds stretching for ten thousand miles.
Within the Beast Taming Sect, countless Disciple looked up.
Upon sensing the anomaly in the sky and the mysterious yet majestic aura permeating the world, they all wore expressions of astonishment.
Many Beast Taming Sect Disciple had felt this kind of aura before.
It was what erupted when Wen Ya returned after obtaining second place on the Spirit Ranking and integrated the Fortune Power into the mountain gate.
It was just that the scale of the anomaly was far inferior to the present, and the intensity of the aura produced was nowhere near as strong as it was now.
"Look quickly, it's Senior Brother Wan!"
"Rumor has it that Senior Brother Wan won first place in this Spirit Ranking Battle, but isn't this Fortune Power a bit too astonishing? Did previous Spirit Ranking first-place winners also have this much Fortune Power?"
"Dream on! I heard that the Fortune Power of Senior Brother Wan's generation far exceeds any previous one; in terms of the strength of Fortune Power on their bodies, the previous Spirit Ranking first-place winners aren't even fit to carry Senior Brother Wan's shoes."
"So amazing, it makes me want to be his Dao Companion!"
"This Junior Sister, you had better go take a piss and look at yourself before you speak."
Wang Jianqiang could feel the gazes filled with admiration cast from within the sect, and could also hear the bursts of exclamation and sighs coming from the sect.
However, he did not care about empty fame, nor did he listen intentionally.
They were just some shallow praises and exclamations.
Not worth a smile.
He hovered in the air, his robes fluttering, standing with his hands behind his back.
The golden dragon coiled above his head, looking down at the ground below.
As if a deity looking down upon the common people.
After a while.
Seeing that "Wan Guiyuan" showed no intention of taking the next step, Wen Tiansheng was somewhat speechless.
"Wan Guiyuan, can we start now?"
