When He Wudi summoned the two doors, Jun Changxiao couldn’t help but laugh out loud too.
My disciple in charge of opening and closing the gate was given the character for door, and his special ability is also related to doors—it’s truly a bit funny.
“Wudi.”
Jun Changxiao asked: “What’s it for?”
Ye Xingchen and Xiao Zuiji were fully armed, and from their released aura alone one could see they had both offense and defense. But these two doors inscribed with life and death were hard to understand—could it be that opening them would lead to hell, allowing mutual teleportation?
He Wudi said: “Sect Leader, these are the Gates of Life and Death. The Life Gate contains living spirits, the Death Gate contains death spirits.”
“Oh?”
Jun Changxiao became interested: “Open them and try.”
He Wudi shook his head: “A target must be sent inside before opening—they won’t come out on their own.”
“Alright.”
Jun Changxiao said: “Everyone put away your abilities and follow me to find the Profound Stone mine vein.”
“Yes!”
The three withdrew their mecha, battle armor, and Gates of Life and Death. The characters on their faces and backs of hands gradually faded into darkness. Although they’d all activated their abilities, since they hadn’t engaged in actual combat, they didn’t fall into a weakened state.
“Let’s go!”
Jun Changxiao led everyone toward the dark, sunless forest ahead. Along the way, he thought: “With these special abilities, disciples entering the Lingyan Pavilion won’t need weapons and equipment at all.”
The System promptly threw cold water on him: “The host said it himself—these are special abilities with special restrictions. It’s completely unrealistic to use them as weapons and equipment at any time.”
“True.”
Jun Changxiao thought: “When there are new sect functions, I can consider prioritizing upgrading the Divine Weapons Pavilion.”
When upgrading the Pill Pavilion and Forging Pavilion in the Lower Realm, Dog Egg didn’t think it was that impressive since it just saved resources and time. But after successively upgrading the Spirit Beast Pavilion and Lingyan Pavilion in the Upper Realm, he realized how amazing it was!
So he decided to try the Divine Weapons Pavilion—after all… oh my, these disciples who’d newly entered the Lingyan Pavilion still didn’t have exclusive divine weapons yet!
“Wudi.”
Jun Changxiao stopped: “Given your recent performance, I’m planning to give you a weapon. Do you use swords or blades?”
Ye Xingchen’s eyes immediately widened.
When you gave me and Xiao Zuiji weapons back then, we didn’t have a choice!
He Wudi scratched his head: “Whatever the Sect Leader gives, I’ll take.”
“Good then.”
Jun Changxiao opened the Divine Weapons Pavilion. After some selection, he spent 10,000 contribution points to buy an exclusive divine weapon called [White Rainbow, Zhaowu], took it out and tossed it over: “From now on, you’re the master of this weapon.”
He Wudi caught it, his facial expression becoming colorful.
“Pffthahaha!”
Demon King Zilin finally couldn’t hold back. He crouched on the ground covering his face, laughing. Even the professionally trained Black and White Rakshasa turned red holding it in.
This exclusive divine weapon White Rainbow Zhaowu inherited the consistent oddball characteristics—whether viewed close up, from afar, from the side, or at an angle, it looked like a palm-sized door knocker.
That’s right!
Similar to the two beast-face ring knockers on the Gates of Life and Death that had just appeared!
“Sect Leader!”
He Wudi collapsed: “Do I have fate with doors?”
Jun Changxiao walked over, patted his shoulder: “Although the shape is a bit odd, the power is extraordinary.”
“…”
He Wudi rolled his eyes.
Undeniably, from the material and feel, the weapon was quite good, but at most it was only Lower Realm Divine Grade level. Now that he was in the Upper Realm, he couldn’t use it in fights.
“Senior Brother Ye.”
He Wudi passed White Rainbow Zhaowu over: “Take it and use it as a nose ring.”
Ye Xingchen roared: “I’m not an ox!”
“Of course.”
Jun Changxiao said seriously: “Your current exclusive divine weapons may not be suitable for the Upper Realm, but you must properly safeguard them, because as long as they’re strengthened in the new version, you can definitely take them out and carry hard!”
Everyone didn’t understand what ‘new version’ meant, but since the Sect Leader was so serious, they’d naturally safeguard their exclusive divine weapons properly.
“Husband.”
Hua Meigui asked: “Do you have weapons for me to use?”
“What does a support need a weapon for?” Jun Changxiao muttered in his heart, but his thoughts honestly started looking through the Divine Weapons Pavilion.
“Ding! The host spent 10,000 contribution points and obtained Phantom Color, Light Dance ×1, delivered to the spatial ring.”
“Ding! Sect contribution points: 720,000.”
Jun Changxiao’s reason to himself was that although she played support, an exclusive divine weapon only cost ten thousand anyway—cheap!
“Here.”
Straight steel man style casual toss.
Hua Meigui caught it. Looking at the whip seemingly woven from seven colors, she smiled beautifully: “Thank you, husband.”
Ye Xingchen, Xiao Zuiji, He Wudi, and Demon King Zilin were all dumbfounded.
No way! Her exclusive divine weapon looks so normal, so beautiful—why is it that when it comes to us, it’s either pots, pans, ladles, or gauntlets and door knockers!
What made them collapse even more was that the Sect Leader bought two more exclusive divine weapons for Black and White Rakshasa—one was a sword, one was a blade. Not only were the designs stylish, even the special effects were high-end!
He Wudi was about to cry.
If I’d known, I would’ve chosen blades or swords too!
“Sect Leader…” he said weakly: “Can I choose again?”
“You’re thinking of eating crap.”
“…”
“This forest is a bit dangerous—everyone stay alert!”
“Yes!”
…
The Demon King Cave was a forbidden area.
The boundless forest nearby was also a forbidden area.
So few people usually came in, and it maintained the most primitive state. Fierce beast bones and droppings could be seen everywhere.
“Sect Leader.”
Demon King Zilin walked while staying vigilant: “There are many demon beasts here, and their strength isn’t weak either.”
Jun Changxiao remained silent. He too sensed it from the solemn and murderous atmosphere.
The System said: “I told you right—even if there’s a Profound Stone mine vein here, it’s a dragon’s pool and tiger’s den!”
Finally got to be proud once.
“Roar!”
“Roar!”
Just then, roaring sounds came from deep in the forest, shaking the surrounding leaves violently.
“Have we been discovered?”
Jun Changxiao immediately ordered: “On guard!”
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
Ye Xingchen and others successively brought out their exclusive divine weapons, their minds and spirits in a state of high alert, because they could tell from the roars that the demon beasts’ strength definitely wasn’t weak!
Hua Meigui subconsciously moved closer to Jun Changxiao. If big trouble appeared, she’d combine with her husband as Jun Meigui in the first instant.
“Sect Leader!”
White Rakshasa said in a heavy voice: “Deep inside, people are battling with a demon beast comparable to Sixth Turn!”
Jun Changxiao’s super-strong divine sense had also extended over, capturing over ten warriors wearing unified clothing, arranging a mysterious formation, currently fighting with a massively powerful demon beast. From the situation, it seemed they’d already gained the upper hand.
These people looked somewhat old in age, with strength all at Third Turn Core Formation Realm or above.
“Sect Leader!”
Seeing the emblem carved on the chest of the dozen-plus warriors, Black Rakshasa’s gaze became serious: “These people are from the Lingwei True Sect!”
“True-rank?”
Jun Changxiao understood: “No wonder their strength is so high!”
Imperial Sword Profound Sect and Ling Blade Profound Sect—the highest realm known so far was only Third Turn. A True-rank sect directly brought over a dozen—this gap was truly quite large!
“Let’s go.”
Jun Changxiao said: “We’ll go around.”
The purpose this time was to find the Profound Stone mine vein, so naturally he wouldn’t watch the excitement.
However, just as he was about to lead everyone on a detour, one of the elders fighting the powerful demon beast shouted sternly: “A hundred-mile radius around this area has been sealed off by our Lingwei True Sect. All unrelated people must leave immediately, or else face the consequences!”
“Right away!”
Jun Changxiao responded loudly, then turned and retraced their path.
Ye Xingchen, Xiao Zuiji, and others were stunned. When had the Sect Leader been so low-key? When others told him to leave, he left without looking back?
Half an hour later.
Jun Changxiao brought them back to the previous cave, took out black night clothes and disguise masks one by one: “Everyone change clothes and disguises, use the Concealment Technique and follow me to infiltrate!”
“…”
Ye Xingchen and others’ mouths twitched.
“Sect Leader!” Black Rakshasa said seriously: “The Lingwei True Sect’s strength cannot be underestimated. You must consider carefully!”
Jun Changxiao said with a straight face: “This forest area is ownerless. The more they seal it off, the more I want to go in and investigate!”
“…”
Black Rakshasa fell silent.
He’d experienced the domineering nature of True-rank sects. If the Sect Leader insisted on going…
“Then let’s go!”
Seeing everyone’s gazes flash with determination, Hua Meigui said helplessly: “Why does it feel like all the high-level members and disciples husband recruited are a bit abnormal?”
This was said as if your man was normal.
More precisely.
The Ten Thousand Ancient Sect’s high-level members and disciples being abnormal was entirely because they’d been led astray by her Dog Egg!
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
Everyone quickly changed into night clothes. Although they altered their appearances, they still covered their faces with black cloth. Especially operating the Concealment Technique, their auras completely concealed.
“Let’s go!”
Jun Changxiao led everyone to the area they’d just been to, pulled off the black cloth on his face, stuck out his tongue at the Lingwei True Sect warriors fighting the demon beast in the depths, then went around from the right side.
“Sect Leader, they didn’t discover us!”
“The Concealment Technique is too miraculous!”
Hearing Black and White Rakshasa’s voice transmission, He Wudi puffed out his chest, proudly thinking: “Just look at who gave it!”
…
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
Everyone moved like ghosts.
After traveling about several tens of miles, they all stopped on a hillside in astonishment, because ahead was a natural depression with extremely spectacular Heaven and Earth attributes swirling above it!
“Sect… Sect Leader…”
Black Rakshasa transmitted excitedly: “There really is a Profound Stone mine vein here!”
