Crackle… The forests all over the mountains were burning in flames.
The five mountains around Ethereal Summit were all ruined with many shattered rocks and broken cliffs while a deep crack was left at the entrance of the valley due to the collision of the dharma treasures!
After the valley quieted down, the cultivators of the three nearby small sects finally came out from their headquarters cautiously.
Since the Herb King Master moved in, the area had been peaceful and prosperous without any brawls which were usually seen elsewhere on Fifth Heaven.
It was the territory of the Herb King Master who was at top-tier Nascent Soul Realm. Who dared to make trouble in this place?
However, a huge battle took place today at the entrance of the Herb King Valley, shaking the surrounding mountains.
Now that it was all quiet, the cultivators of the three small sects felt uneasy.
If Herb King Master had enemies, they must be Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who could probably turn mountains into nothing.
The cultivators in the Qi Refinement Realm, the Foundation Establishment Realm, and the Core Formation Realm were all alarmed.
In front of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, they were like ants!
“Did Herb King Master come to this valley to hide from his enemies? Did he fight a powerful cultivator just now?” the cultivators of the three sects were speculating silently, but none dared to send people to the Ethereal Summit to check.
At this moment, Hao Ren was walking toward a high-end apartment complex.
This was Xu Ke’s address that Huang Xujie had found. Not to alert Xu Ke, Hao Ren had taken a bus here instead of using the purple gold hairpin.
After turning into a boat, the purple gold hairpin was a huge dharma treasure. It was an obvious object to cultivators even though mortals couldn’t see it.
Hao Ren found the apartment building where Xu Ke lived and looked up at the 16th floor.
Vague red light shone through the balcony and the windows; it was a sign of an array formation.
With the inspector’s token, Hao Ren could conceal his aura. Just like the token, some array formations had the same effects. Although Hao Ren didn’t sense any auras of dragon cultivators in the apartment building, he wasn’t sure if Xu Ke was home or not.
A guy who could use a supreme spiritual treasure wasn’t ordinary. Instead of being approached by Xu Ke at school, Hao Ren decided to take the initiative and duel with him outside of the school.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili didn’t go to Fifth Heaven with Xie Yujia. Instead, they were following Hao Ren secretly. Bored at home and even more bored on Fifth Heaven, they decided to follow Hao Ren.
It was a challenge and fun for them to follow Hao Ren, whom they liked, without him knowing.
Shua! A flash of light fell from the sky and rolled into the green grasses beside the complex.
Ruff! Ruff! Little White crawled out and rushed to Hao Ren’s feet, pulling at his shoestrings.
Hao Ren was trying to figure out how to open the coded glass door of the apartment building when Little White appeared with anxious eyes.
Ruff! Ruff… Little White’s sharp teeth almost broke Hao Ren’s shoes.
Hao Ren had a bad feeling when he thought that something might have happened on Fifth Heaven.
With a lift of his hand, he put up an energy sphere and sat on the back of Little White who had turned to its snow lion form before flying into the high sky.
“Senior, are you here to visit me?” Xu Ke asked with a smile while standing on the balcony.
He had been cultivating in the room. When he sensed the aura of a spirit beast, he ran to the balcony quickly and saw Hao Ren flying up on Little White.
Chi!
Hao Ren released a sword energy while he flew toward the high sky, looking not so friendly.
Xu Ke dodged hurriedly, and the sword energy passed his ear and shattered a pot of flowers on the balcony.
Little White’s sudden appearance had undoubtedly alerted him, and Hao Ren decided to deal with him later!
Xu Ke looked up with gritted teeth, not expecting Hao Ren would find him here.
In the small garden, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili looked up at Hao Ren and Little White who were flying away into the high sky and exchanged a look dispiritedly.
“Big Zhumu and Small Zhumu must have called Gongzi to keep them company. Forget it. Let’s go shopping!” Lu Lili turned cheerful again and said.
“Ok!” Lu Linlin agreed while looking up at Little White.
With the pocket money that Hao Zhonghua gave them, they could buy some new clothes! Now that they had transferred to Hao Ren’s program and would go to class with Hao Ren each day, they must dress prettily!
Rushing from Fifth Heaven to First Heaven and then back to Fifth Heaven, Little White was anxious and flew at its fastest speed.
Hao Ren took out the purple gold hairpin, turned it into a golden boat, and tossed Little White into the boat before flying toward Fifth Heaven.
Meanwhile, the situation on Fifth Heaven had changed again.
The level 4 snow lion named Yanyang flew swiftly toward Southeast and finally found a cultivator of Sky Mountain Sect.
Recognizing this level 4 snow lion and seeing it flying alone, the cultivator knew something bad had happened and immediately released signals for help!
The black-faced cultivator had been chasing after Zhao Yanzi with hundreds of cultivators. When he saw Duan Yao’s temporary mount, Yanyang, he was horrified.
Hundreds of Sky Mountain Sect cultivators released the remaining signals for the emergency. Like a chain reaction, all the cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect who were searching for City Sect all rushed over.
This time, the Grand Uncle-Master of Sky Mountain Sect issued the Sky Mountain Order, asking the affiliated sects to help with the search for City Sect on Fifth Heaven. Anyone who could help with the mission would get a Sky Mountain Token and become a guest elder of Sky Mountain Sect.
If the disciples of Sky Mountain Sect met cultivators with the Sky Mountain Token, they must show respect to him or her as they do to the elders of Sky Mountain Sect. If this cultivator was in danger, the cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect must rescue him or her.
Therefore, anyone with Sky Mountain Tokens would get the protection of Sky Mountain Sect! Since they could potentially gain the protection of Sky Mountain Sect from Sixth Heaven, the cultivators outside of Sky Mountain Sect were eager to help them complete the mission!
Besides issuing the Sky Mountain Order, Sky Mountain Sect had sent almost 1,000 cultivators to investigate on Fifth Heaven systematically.
If Sky Mountain Sect could find City Sect by itself, it would save a Sky Mountain Token and lots of future trouble!
Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Hundreds of cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect followed the level 4 snow lion, Yanyang, and flew toward the direction of Ethereal Summit.
The cultivators in the sects that they flew past by all held their breaths, afraid of attracting the attention of this large group of cultivators!
From a distance, smaller teams of cultivators flew over and joined as well.
It was the first time for Sky Mountain Sect to send 1,000 cultivators to Fifth Heaven, and it was even rarer to have 1,000 cultivators come together!
Many sects on Fifth Heaven thought that another war was happening!
With the level 4 snow lion leading the way, the huge troops of Sky Mountain Sect arrived at the entrance of Ethereal Summit in half an hour.
There were traces of battle at the entrance of the valley while Duan Yao’s dagger, which was stuck in the cliff, had blood on it.
With the highest ranking and realm among the cultivators, the black-faced cultivator had a bad feeling. He heard that Grand Uncle-Master issued the Sky Mountain Order and sent nearly 1,000 disciples to search on Fifth Heaven for his junior sister, Duan Yao.
However, they didn’t get any clues about the so-called City Sect after turning Fifth Heaven upside-down. Besides, Duan Yao, the junior sister they were supposed to protect, had suddenly disappeared, and no one knew if she was still alive!
At this thought, the black-faced cultivator who used to step over other disciples in the sect suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
As the disciple of the First Elder who oversaw the sect rules, he naturally knew what punishment would be bestowed onto them!
“What’s this place?” He asked the cultivator beside him and pretended to be calm.
Sitting on a level 3 snow lion, one of his junior brothers by his side also had a bad feeling when he saw the messy situation around them. He answered immediately, “This is Herb King Valley, but its name has been changed to Ethereal Summit half a year ago. It’s said that the Herb King Master, who is a top-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, live here.”
“Top-tier Nascent Soul Realm…” The black-faced cultivator frowned, remembering that he had heard some gossips while he searched for City Sect on Fifth Heaven over the past few days. The gossips said that the elixir pills made by the Herb King Master of Ethereal Summit were very advanced.
He had also heard that the Herb King Master had a snow lion, which was why some cultivators on Fifth Heaven thought the Herb King Master was a cultivator of Sky Mountain Sect.
However, the black-faced cultivator knew for a fact that none of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect lived on Fifth Heaven. Instead, they were all cultivating in the sect. After all, with more abundant nature essence on Sixth Heaven, who would live on Fifth Heaven?
However, Sky Mountain Sect would occasionally give some snow lions as mounts to powerful cultivators who had connections with them, and that was why the black-faced cultivator didn’t act rashly even though he knew their junior sister had been taken into this valley. Instead, he activated his nature essence and shouted, “Senior, I’m Mo Lianshan, a disciple of Sky Mountain Sect’s First Elder Yongchun. Our junior sister, Duan Yao, interrupted your cultivation. I hope you can forgive her.”
His voice was loud and resonant, showing the dignity of top-tier Core Formation Realm cultivator.
Having never heard of this Herb King Master, he guessed that this cultivator might have some connection with Sky Mountain Sect. When Duan Yao had some conflicts with this cultivator’s disciple, this cultivator captured her, not knowing her identity.
At this thought, this black-faced cultivator had a bad feeling, wondering if the young girl who was riding on the level 3 snow lion was a disciple of the Herb King Master.
The valley was quiet, and no response was sent out.
Mo Lianshan drew out five voice transmission notes and shot them into the valley.
However, the five voice transmission notes were like stones in the ocean, not stirring up a reaction.
Standing by Mo Lianshan’s side, his junior brothers looked at each other and didn’t know what to do. At top-tier Core Formation Realm, they were all disciples of the First Elder and the most powerful ones among their peers. They were also the regional leaders of this mission.
Yongchun was their master’s Taoist title. In Sky Mountain Sect, the ordinary disciples used their own names, and only those cultivators who had reached the Nascent Soul Realm could have Taoist titles, becoming renowned figures on Sixth Heaven.
Since Mo Lianshan had given the name of Sky Mountain Sect and the Taoist title of his master, if the Nascent Soul Realm cultivator in the valley indeed had connections with Sky Mountain Sect, he or she would surely know that they weren’t hostile.
After all, there were only a few dozen of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators on Sixth Heaven. As top figures on Sixth Heaven, their names were familiar to almost all cultivators on Sixth Heaven.
Yongchun, the First Elder of Sky Mountain Sect, was one of the few cultivators on mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm.
“Attack!”
A roar suddenly sounded in the high sky.
Hearing this voice, the black-faced cultivator shivered.
It was the voice of their Grand Uncle-Master!
As a decisive man, Mo Lianshan didn’t hesitate after hearing the order, launching a black light from his black sword!
Seeing Mo Lianshan attacking, the other cultivators who had heard the voice also attacked!
Hundreds of cultivators including dozens of Core Formation Realm cultivators launched their dharma treasures into the valley like a storm.
Hum… White lights flashed in the valley while the defense array formation was activated automatically!
With Duan Yao tied on the stone bed, Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia were healing their injuries. They suddenly felt the whole valley shake violently.
A dozen or so snow lion cubs ran around in alarm while the fences Xie Yujia put up around the spiritual herb fields collapsed one after another.
Hua! Hua… Some rocks fell from the cliffs into the ponds Xie Yujia had dug out, splashing out the water and breaking some water-elemental spiritual herbs.
“You’re finished! My senior brothers are here to rescue me!” All tied up, Duan Yao glared at Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi and said viciously.
Zhao Yanzi glared back. To stop Duan Yao from babbling, she stuck a piece of cloth into her mouth.
Since Xie Yujia and her were severely wounded, they couldn’t even pick up their dharma treasures, let alone going out to fight.
From the entrance of the cave abode, Zhao Yanzi could see countless cultivators attacking the valley. The Ethereal Summit was surrounded.
Boom! Boom!
The array formation with flashing white lights began to show signs of collapsing.
“Hao Ren…” Right now, Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi chanted this name silently.
“Who dares to trespass Ethereal Summit?!”
A magnificent voice resonated in the sky, and a shiny golden boat appeared at the top of the valley!
