Chapter 57 Elder Zhao? A Master? !

Translator: 549690339 |

A group of people looked at the small mountain village ahead with great surprise.

Although it looked the same as any ordinary mountain village, compared to the background behind it, it seemed far too extraordinary.

What kind of village could remain intact through a disaster that caused the entire Cangli Mountain Range to collapse?

This alone signified something extraordinary!

“This place must be extraordinary! To have survived such a catastrophe, there must be something exceptional in it!”

A glimmer of hope shone in Long Zi Xuan’s eyes!

Could it be that heaven hadn’t closed all paths? Here, might there actually be some fortunate opportunity waiting for him?

He was about to get up.

“Wait a minute!”

However, Lu Rang stopped him and said, “Are you crazy?”

Long Zi Xuan asked, “What is it?”

Lu Rang pointed to the small mountain village and said, “We know nothing about the depth of this mountain village, how can we just rashly barge in? Don’t forget, the Cangli Mountain Range is a forbidden territory!”

“Even the forbidden territory has been destroyed, yet this place remains unscathed. What does that mean? It means this is the forbidden of the forbidden. Do you understand?”

There was urgency on his face.

This place was obviously not somewhere easy to enter.

It could well be a huge trap!

He had let his imagination run wild to the utmost.

But Long Zi Xuan shook his head, his eyes full of determination, and his somewhat pale face was filled with an unstoppable resolve.

“Brother Lu, your concerns are valid, and so we part ways here.”

“You have many choices and can avoid entering, but I have nowhere to go.”

“To tell you the truth, even though I am a prince of the Imperial Dynasty, I am no different from a cripple, and rather than existing in this world to face disdain, mockery, and oppression, I would rather risk my life!”

“Even if it is a dead end, I am not afraid to be buried there!”

He looked at Lu Rang and smiled, “If there really is any opportunity, I will inform Brother Lu in due time.”

After speaking, he walked straight towards the small mountain village, not looking back!

Seeing him walk towards the mountain village, his four guards looked at each other in dismay.

“The Empress commanded us to follow him, but she didn’t tell us to follow him to our deaths!”

One of the guards spoke up in a low voice.

“Right, this place is mysterious and unpredictable. With the notorious reputation of the Cangli Mountain Range, we cannot enter recklessly. Let’s stop here. We can go back and report this.”

“Following him to our deaths is not worth it!”

For example, the four guards directly turned around and left, completely ignoring Long Zi Xuan!

Witnessing this scene, Lu Rang was shocked; damn, this Long Zi Xuan, despite being a prince, lived a life worse than a beggar’s!

Suddenly, he understood why Long Zi Xuan was desperately trying to get inside.

It was better to die!

“Damn it… This young master really doesn’t want to court death!”

“Long Zi Xuan, you owe me a life!”

Lu Rang gritted his teeth and rushed over!

He ran quickly and soon caught up with Long Zi Xuan.

“Why did you come, Brother Lu?”

Long Zi Xuan asked with some surprise.

Lu Rang, with an unpleasant expression, said, “You’re not the only one with no way out. If I fled or went back to the Sect Gate, it would most likely be a death sentence anyway.”

“Let’s go. It’s worth it to see what exists in the forbidden territory before we die!”

The two then walked shoulder to shoulder into the small mountain village.

Upon entering the village, everything they saw was quite ordinary.

Just like a mortal village.

“This place seems to have nothing out of the ordinary, right?”

Lu Rang was puzzled.

“It can’t be.”

Long Zi Xuan shook his head and said, “The more it seems this way, the more it proves the extraordinariness of this place. Brother Lu, think about it, do you believe a mortal village could have survived such a catastrophe?”

Lu Rang nodded, “That’s a reasonable point!”

They continued to walk along the road inside the village.

“Hmm? There’s something peculiar about this ditch!”

Suddenly, Long Zi Xuan squatted beside a water ditch.

The clear water in the ditch babbled and flowed, and as it passed a certain section, a misty vapor was emitted.

Long Zi Xuan was greedily inhaling the vapor emanating from the water ditch!

“It’s just a ditch, what’s so surprising about that?”

Lu Rang didn’t understand and was even more astounded by Long Zi Xuan’s behavior. Could it be that Long Zi Xuan was not in his right mind?

He approached, but Long Zi Xuan pulled him down to squat and said, “Smell it!”

Lu Rang instinctively sniffed it.

“Holy shit!”

Lu Rang was immediately shocked. Just one breath seemed immensely invigorating!

The vapor cleared his mind as if all the confusion in his brain had been dispelled at that moment.

“This vapor… contains spiritual energy!”

Lu Rang said in amazement.

“Right!”

Long Zi Xuan nodded. He couldn’t help but lean down, scooped up some water, and drank it!

“Refreshing!”

Long Zi Xuan praised loudly; the water contained a unique essence. Although it wasn’t direct spiritual energy, it made his whole body feel comfortable.

“I’ll have a taste, too!”

Lu Rang couldn’t hold back any longer, he was even rougher, bowing his head to submerge his mouth in the water, and drank a large gulp!

“If this water is used to cultivate Spiritual Medicine, it surely would work wonders, probably bringing about extraordinary medicine!”

He gave a direct appraisal, his eyes burning with fervor.

As an expert in cultivating Spiritual Medicine, he was all too familiar with this, so much so that he wished he could relocate the entire ditch!

If the Divine Sword Sect had such a ditch, there would never be worries about finding a place to grow Spiritual Medicine!

“This small mountain village actually has such Holy Water!”

Long Zixuan also praised, his anticipation growing even more.

“Hey, what are you doing? Why are you drinking water from a ditch?!”

At that moment, a voice came through.

Turning their heads, they saw an elder passing by on the road, who happened to be Elder Zhao from the village.

Elder Zhao was leaning on a walking stick, his face full of puzzlement, saying, “Are you visitors from outside? Must be tired from walking, eh? But you can’t drink this water, it’s unclean, people upstream are growing vegetables, they often use farm manure.”

Upon hearing this, Long Zixuan and Lu Rang both turned green.

Good lord, farm manure?

“Young man, you really should be more careful. Come on, follow me to my house.”

Elder Zhao, being kind-hearted, gestured for the two to follow him.

“Brother Long?”

Lu Rang was somewhat apprehensive.

This was no ordinary small mountain village, and this elderly man suddenly appeared; who knew if he was friend or foe?

However, Long Zixuan was greatly shaken. He had seen the Elder’s walking stick and his pupils shrank!

He couldn’t discern the material of the walking stick, but he saw a faint dragon pattern carved on it, which was just for decor.

Yet, that dragon pattern made him feel that the stick was none other than a resting dragon!

The Dragon Soul within him even started to tremble.

This was an extraordinary person.

He immediately took a deep breath and said, “As the elder commands, we dare not disobey!”

Elder Zhao smiled and turned to walk toward his nearby home.

The two followed.

“Brother Long, this old man doesn’t know the situation…”

Lu Rang was somewhat perplexed.

“Don’t speak!”

Long Zixuan sent a message directly to him, saying, “This elder is beyond imagination. The walking stick in his hand, it seems to be of a higher grade than even the Quasi-Immortal Artifacts of my Holy Ground… This elder must be the reclusive master from the legends, who seeks apprentices!”

On hearing this, Lu Rang was also instantly shocked.

He immediately became reverent and solemn.

It wasn’t long before Elder Zhao arrived home.

“The water over there isn’t clean. Here, each of you have a ladle to quench your thirst, then pick some fruits on the way to satisfy your hunger before continuing on your journey. Within ten miles, you won’t find another place to rest and eat!”

Elder Zhao uncovered the water jar and scooped up a ladle of water, handing it to Long Zixuan.

Long Zixuan took the ladle subconsciously, but when he grasped it, his whole person was shocked.

He clearly felt that what was in his hand… was not a ladle, but a dragon bone, a dragon soaring through the clouds!

Looking down, he saw that even the wooden ladle was carved with a dragon!

Yet another artifact surpassing Quasi-Immortal items!

Just used… for drinking water?

How could he not be shocked? He could hardly drink the water!

At his side, Lu Rang was standing there dumbfounded, but not because of the ladle but because he saw two trees in Elder Zhao’s courtyard!

One was a date tree, the other also a date tree.

On the two date trees, clusters of fiery red dates shone like translucent agate, bright and dripping with appeal, their brimming Spiritual Energy almost bursting forth, visible to the naked eye!

“Top-grade Spiritual Medicine… no, superior-grade, superior-grade Spiritual Medicine!? Or even above that?!”

He muttered to himself, his heart filled with awe and incredulity!

The Divine Sword Sect, as a Quasi-Saint Holy Ground Sect, had superior-grade as its strongest level of Spiritual Medicine!

It was a treasured orchid, extremely precious in the Sect, protected by a Supreme, and he had only seen it from afar.

But these two date trees, either one was more dazzling and more radiant than the Sect’s treasured orchid!

Their grade was even higher!

Unimaginable!

Seeing the two of them stupefied, Elder Zhao was somewhat perplexed, asking, “Why are you both so dumbstruck?”

At this moment, Long Zixuan could not hold back any longer. He immediately knelt on the ground with a thud, holding the water ladle with a face full of devotion, and said, “Elder, please accept me as your disciple!”

He was now certain that this elder before him was indeed the legendary reclusive expert, an unimaginable existence!

Moreover, he had come across two artifacts related to dragons in succession, clearly, this was destiny!

This was his own opportunity for immortal fate, he had to seize it!

At that same moment, with another thud, Lu Rang also knelt on the ground, excitedly saying, “Elder, please take me as your disciple as well!”

The two date trees had thoroughly conquered him!

In his life, what he loved most was cultivating Spiritual Medicine; when harvesting Spiritual Medicine, he would experience an immense sense of fulfillment.

And now, should he be allowed to care for these two unimaginably superior-grade Spiritual Medicines, he would be willing to give everything!

But Elder Zhao, upon seeing this, was taken aback.

After a moment of shock, he came back to his senses and chuckled, ” What are you doing in our little mountain village, seeking a master, eh?”

“You’ve certainly come to the right place.”

On hearing this, both Lu Rang and Long Zixuan became even more excited, did this mean that the elder agreed to accept them as his disciples?

But Elder Zhao then said, “However, you’ve got the wrong person if you’re looking for a master. It’s not me who’s taking disciples.”

On hearing this, Long Zixuan was taken aback and asked, “Elder… it’s not you?”

Elder Zhao nodded and said, “What capability do I have to take disciples… The person taking disciples is Little Li.”

Little Li!
