Miao Jian who was at the side could not help but reveal a slight smile. This brat is truly interesting ah, to actually manage to make old Dao so angry...
The four walked walked out together, making several turns, before repeatedly making even more weird turns as if they were in a beguiling maze. Finally, Miao Jing Yun opened a hidden door, and they descended underground...
After more turns, Miao Jing Yun opened a second secret door at an extremely concealed location. They entered it together and walked in a seemingly aimless manner for a long time before they reached the third door...
After that, Miao Jing Yun, Miao Dao, and Miao Jian stopped.
The three people’s expressiions had become extremely reverent, as if they were fervent believers of some god...
Jun Mo Xie only felt as if his brain had swollen up from going round and round like that. Not mentioning that he wasn’t a spy; even if he were a spy, he would probably have been driven crazy by this maze before he could even reach this place...
“We’ll only send you up here.” Miao Jing Yun said. “You need to go in yourself for the rest of the way.” His voice was serious, without any hint of joking.
“Go in myself?” Jun Mo Xie got a huge scare. “I’ll become dizzy even with you all leading me here. Wouldn’t I just get lost and die in there alone? Don’t kid around with me!”
“For the path from here, you just need to walk straight all the way to the end.” Miao Jing Yun said. “In the last 500 years, apart from the day this old man took up the appointment of Manor Lord, you are the first person to go in there! Kid, you’d best grasp this opportunity well.”
The three of them stood neatly to the side, no longer moving.
The passion in Miao Dao and Miao Jian’s eyes were as if they were fervent Buddhists who’d suddenly seen Buddha or Christians who’d met Jesus in the flesh. Their faces were extremely agitated, and those originally ice cold faces seemed as if they would burn up in a moment...
Jun Mo Xie hesitated for a moment and stepped in.
In the instant that he stepped in, the door slammed shut behind him with a loud bang !
If one just looked at it from the surface, it was just a stone wall, and it was impossible to see even the finest crack... Young Master Jun didn’t know that at the moment the door closed, Miao Jing Yun and the other two had immediately knelt down together and respectfully kowtowed a few times. Only then, did they back away quietly and retreated to the first level to wait.
Jun Mo Xie followed along the quiet passage, continuing forward. Although his surroundings were completely dark, and there was nobody beside him, he still continued forward without any fear. With his eyesight, this dark passage was as if brightly lit.
He could feel that this path was continuously sloping downward. It wasn’t clear how long he’d been walking for, and there were even several series of stairs in front, seemingly stretching on endlessly before him.
With such a great depth, Jun Mo Xie believed that if this were an ocean, he would have already reached the seabed long ago! But this place was incredibly dry, without the slightest bit of humidity.
Furthermore, the air was clear and refreshing, without any stuffy feeling.
This point caused Jun Mo Xie to feel incredibly suspicious. If this was not an illusion, just how was it achieved?
Jun Mo Xie continued moving forward, not knowing how far he’d walked. In any case, he was sure that he’d walked a considerably great distance. All of a sudden, he felt an exceedingly strange sensation!
It was an extremely profound feeling, as if this journey of his was him walking forward, towards the domain of some kind of ‘Dao’... It was the most mysterious law of the Heavens and Earth...
Jun Mo Xie could not help but to stop, close his eyes, and keenly sense the mysterious feeling...
A strange ripple appeared in the air as an elusive voice appeared in the air, sighing. “Not bad! Powerful indeed! No wonder you could trigger that magical heavenly rarity. Such a talent is indeed unprecedented and unsurpassed in the present age!”
“Who are you?” Jun Mo Xie’s eyes remained closed, and he did not feel startled by this voice that had suddenly appeared.
“Who am I?... Who am I?... Hur hur hur...” A deep sigh that had seemingly seen through the vicissitudes of life rang out from that ethereal voice again as it said, “Who am I?... I don’t even remember anymore... A very very long time ago, I seem to have a name... called Miao Qing Cheng... but I seem to have the feeling that that isn’t really my name. At least, it wasn’t my original name... What exactly is going on? And what happened to this world?”
This person’s voice was filled with indescribable confusion, as if he’d been considering this question for thousands of years, or perhaps his entire life...
“Miao Qing Cheng...” Jun Mo Xie recited the name, somehow finding it quite familiar. But as he tried to recall, he didn’t have much of an impression of it.
Lately, he’d been learning from everybody, recording and committing to memory all the peak experts that had appeared here for the past three to five thousand years. Because after the last time when he’d encountered the Spirit Seed for the first time, Jun Mo Xie began to understand a certain thing: those ancient legendary experts of the past might not have all died or disappeared...
Some of those old fellows would have borrowed the power of their Spirit Seed to be reborn repeatedly...
Ever since he saw Zhan Tian Ji’s Holy Infant in the Zhan Family, Jun Mo Xie became even more certain of this. Even from the conversations among Cao Guo Feng and the other Saint Emperors that he’d overheard, he learned that almost all of the Misty Illusory Manor’s experts had basically been reborn at least once... This was especially the case for those legendary geniuses...
However, he had never heard of this name before.
Miao Qing Cheng!
From this name, it should belong to a girl!
Qing Guo, Qing Cheng, these were usually words used to describe devastatingly beautiful women... 1
But today, someone said that this was his name! And from the looks of it, the person speaking was a man...
“A junior of your generation probably no longer remembers this old man’s name...” That ethereal voice rang out again. “However... you possess truly extraordinary talent that causes even this old man to sigh with amazement. How truly rare.”
“Oh? Many thanks for Senior’s praise!” Jun Mo Xie raised his brows and began moving forward again. He could clearly tell that there weren’t any nefarious intentions in that voice. In fact, there was some joyfulness in its tone.
“Right, you just keep on going forward like this, and chat with this old man along the way. That way, you won’t feel bored and I have something to do as well.” This Miao Qing Cheng old fellow seemed to be very happy to have someone to chat with. In a short moment, his words became somewhat sad as he said, “It’s already been many years... since I had someone to talk to... this kind of feeling is truly lonely ah...”
“Since you are also surnamed Miao, you should be a Senior of the Miao Family. Why aren’t you staying on top with the rest of the Miao Family? Even if you’re not willing to stay on top, you can also call a few of the juniors down here to keep you company. Isn’t that much more convenient? To actually still be so lonely despite being inside your own family clan, this loneliness should be something that you sought yourself right...” Jun Mo Xie said lightly.
“Sought myself... What would you know?” The voice was still the same, not having any hint of anger at Jun Mo Xie’s rude reply. “If only this old man can live up there... did you think that this old man has a problem with his brains to want to hide in this kind of dark place?”
“Oh, so it turns out that there’s a reason behind it.” Jun Mo Xie followed the path and passed another bend. Stretching beyond it was another long pathway. It was mostly leading downwards as well. At this moment, Young Master Jun had already decided that he might as well keep walking and see what was down there now that he’d come this far. Not saying anything else, he continued walking in an unhurried manner.
“Let’s not talk about that.” There was an obvious bleak tone in the voice this time. “Where was I?” This old fellow had actually forgotten the conversation that he started himself...
From the looks of it, this old Miao Family ancestor was somewhat senile...
Jun Mo Xie continued walking without a change in expression as he said, “You were saying... that my talent is good and causes you amazement.” When he repeated those words, Jun Mo Xie did not show an embarrassed expression at all.
In fact, he even sounded somewhat proud of himself. What is a Free and Natural Physique even worth? If my real talent were displayed, it would be strange if this old fellow were not scared to death. Are those legendary people and things so amazing...
“Yes, I was talking about that.” The old man said with some admiration. “Lad, your memory is not bad, and your character is pretty good too. Even more impressive is that you’re not even 20 and you already have a cultivation at the Fourth level of Saint Emperor. Furthermore, your Xuan Qi is pure to an extreme level... Such a level of talent... you are the only one that this old man has seen in my over 10,000 years of life. Not bad, truly not bad!”
“What?” Jun Mo Xie’s body suddenly shook, and he could not help but to stop. For the first time since he closed his eyes, he opened them swiftly, as two sharp light shone brilliantly!
From the start to the end, he had been concealing his true strength! Furthermore, he had the Hongjun Pagoda, the cheating tool in his hands to support him, as well as the Art of Unlocking Heaven’s Fortune, a Divine Art that had never appeared in this world before. But this person had managed to see through his true strength. Just how did he do that?
On top of that... that old man was still an unknown distance away from him. It wasn’t clear how strong this person was yet, but just his skill of judgement and his ability to see through him had given him enough qualifications to be the most terrifying enemy he’d ever met in his life...
“Little fellow, there’s no need to be so nervous...” That old voice chuckled lightly. “For you to have such a strong reaction, you should be concealing your strength on the outside? Don’t worry, I won’t expose your secret...”
He paused for a moment and said, “Because I can sense that in your heart, you don’t have any evil intentions towards the Misty Illusory Manor. Since you don’t mean us any harm, I will not move to kill the most dazzling genius our Xuan Xuan Continent has possibly ever seen!”
“Dare I ask, how did you see through it? I feel that I’ve concealed myself very well, and no one has been able to see through me before!” Jun Mo Xie could not understand this point.
