Chapter 861 Chapter 861 Unexpected situation

Shun Long could see that a few hundred meters away from him, the white fog had finally started to disperse, while the fog's effects in his spiritual sea had also started to diminish significantly.

Although Shun Long could barely feel any pressure from the white fog while he had been leisurely walking through the forest for the past half a day, at this moment, he could still sense quite clearly that the fog's effects had already started to become much weaker the closer he walked towards this area ahead of him.

''Master, it seems that this is the end of the first stage for this trial.''

Inside the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time', Little Black said with a calm look in his bright blue eyes as he stared at the area ahead of Shun Long.

Hearing the loud hubbub of voices that were no longer being blocked by the white fog and could be heard clearly from that place, Shun Long nodded his head as he agreed with Little Black, and after taking one last look around him and making sure that there were no more white leopards for him to hunt, he began to make his way towards this area in front of him.

A few minutes later, Shun Long finally walked out of the fog-filled forest before an entirely new scene greeted his eyes.

Staring at the vast plains in front of him and the thousands of Dao Kings that were gathered here and were either chatting with each other or they were sitting on the ground with their eyes closed, Shun Long was momentarily taken aback.

After all, other than a few groups of peak rank 5 and early rank 6 Dao Kings, every single person in this place was already a peak rank 6 Dao King, while more than half of them were actually late-stage Dao Kings.

In fact, Shun Long could also sense the auras of quite a few peak rank 9 Dao King realm experts among these people, and the auras of some of them even exceeded that of the red-robed old man that Little Silver had killed back in the 'Desert mural'.

For so many middle and late-stage Dao Kings to have gathered in this place, it clearly showed how much importance these experts had placed in this trial.

Although the 'Desert mural' where Shun Long had comprehended his sword aura also had quite a large number of late-stage Dao Kings present previously, they couldn't possibly compare to the number of experts that had gathered here.

At the same time, the moment that Shun Long stepped out of the forest, quite a few of the surrounding Dao Kings who were sitting near the forest's entrance opened their eyes and turned their gazes towards him, staring at him with looks of unconcealed surprise and disbelief.

"Eh? What's going on? Who is this guy?"

"Hm? How is this possible? There is a person here who can completely conceal his aura when he is standing this close to me? What kind of cultivation technique is that guy training in?"

"That's not all! Look! He just passed the first stage of the 'Illusion oasis' and he doesn't look the slightest bit tired!"

Sensing the curious and examining gazes of the surrounding Dao Kings and hearing their discussions, Shun Long wasn't surprised by their reactions and merely shook his head in response, before he began to inspect the people around him as well.

Naturally, it was extremely rare for these people to be unable to sense someone's cultivation base when they were standing in such close proximity to them, so it was no wonder that they would be so surprised. Even most peak rank 9 Dao King realm experts wouldn't be able to completely conceal their aura to the point that not even a bit of their qi would slip out, unless they were training in some extraordinary cultivation technique.

The only people who would be able to do something like that without an immortal-grade cultivation technique would only be experts at the Dao Emperor realm and above. But of course, in the 'City of Immortals', regardless of how talented someone was, it was impossible for them to breakthrough to the Dao Emperor realm and keep that a secret.

Although nobody truly knew what would happen in that case, most of the peak rank 9 Dao Kings believed that the moment they completed their breakthroughs, they would be sucked to the second level of the 'City of Immortals' and would have to compete with monsters like Jiang Tianfang and the other late-stage and peak-stage Dao Emperors by then. This was why no one was willing to finish their breakthroughs in this place, despite the fact that the 'City of Immortals' was filled with extremely pure qi.

Besides, breaking through to the Dao Emperor realm wasn't so easy to begin with, and considering that everyone would only have around 10 years to stay in this place, most people understood that it was probably better to hoard as many treasures as they could while they were here.

''Hey, friend! What's your name and which power do you belong to? It's quite rare to see someone like you still in the first stage of the 'Illusion oasis'.''

Just as Shun Long was taking a look at his surroundings, a handsome, brown-robed young man with a long white saber stranded on his back suddenly approached him and asked him with an amiable smile on his face, before he cupped his hands in a friendly manner, indicating that he didn't mean any harm.

Glancing at this brown-robed young man in front of him who had a cultivation base at the peak of rank 7 in the Dao King realm Shun Long was just about to respond, but his eyes suddenly widened when he noticed a scene that was taking place just a few hundred meters away from him.

Staring at the group of 4 people who were lying on the ground in their own blood and looked like they were about to die at any moment, an uncontrollable wave of killing intent suddenly burst out of Shun Long's body, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
