Chapter 673: The Hidden Gorge.

"I didn't expect to encounter you here again."

Su Yi chuckled helplessly. He also didn't expect to come across Lifetaken Yama Xi Wuqing again in the Forest of Demons. It seemed like fate.

Normally, Su Yi wouldn't take such a great risk to save someone, let alone use the Terrifying Star Blade.

"Thanks to your help this time, it seems you've grown stronger."

Xi Wuqing looked at Su Yi attentively, secretly amazed. He could sense that when Su Yi had helped, there was an external force involved. The blade itself was extraordinary and beyond imagination.

"You're welcome. You saved me before, so this time I saved you. We're even now," Su Yi said with a smile. It was an exciting but safe adventure, repaying Xi Wuqing's favor from earlier.

"You seem to have some secrets, especially that valuable knife. I, Lifetaken Yama, have a bad reputation. Aren't you worried that I might attack you and take it from you in the Forest of Demons?" Xi Wuqing carefully observed Su Yi and spoke.

"Well..."

Su Yi's gaze darkened for a moment, then he smiled lightly and said, "Of course, I'm afraid. But I can't just stand by and watch someone in danger. Besides, you saved me before."

After a brief pause, Su Yi raised an eyebrow and looked at Xi Wuqing with a slight smile. He continued, "But shouldn't you be more afraid of me now? After all, you, a respected Soul Tamer of the Yuan Emperor Realm, must have many valuable things."

Xi Wuqing glanced at Su Yi and was taken aback. How could he not understand Su Yi's words?

The young boy seemed to have a hidden message in his words, being both gentle and tough at the same time.

The meaning couldn't be clearer. He helped because of their relationship and to repay a favor. But daring to help, daring to go against the Fire Dragon Master, that showed he had enough strength to protect himself and deal with the Fire Dragon Master.

Su Yi, a young man, looked at Xi Wuqing with a slight smile in his eyes. Sensing Xi Wuqing's expression, he knew he couldn't have any harmful intentions and had to stay cautious.

"What a clever young boy. Let's go. This place isn't safe. The Fire Dragon Master will soon realize we haven't gone far and will come looking for us. We should leave here first."

They locked eyes for a moment, then Xi Wuqing gave a faint smile, stood up, and said, "Alright."

"Okay," Su Yi hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The old and the young, two figures, left immediately.

Several hours later, in a secluded canyon, there was a narrow crevice in the rocky wall that only one person could pass through. The walls on both sides were steep.

Behind the cracks in the rock wall, there was a hidden world, a deep valley surrounded by strange and colorful flowers. The scent of the flowers filled the air. A waterfall cascaded down, roaring like thunder and splashing water everywhere.

Su Yi looked around in astonishment. The surrounding mountains were steep and rugged. It was hard to imagine such a beautiful place existed unless he came here.

"Follow me, there's another hidden world here," Xi Wuqing said, noticing Su Yi's surprise. With those words, he swiftly flew out, surrounded by a radiant aura of energy, and plunged into the waterfall.

Su Yi was intrigued and didn't hesitate. He condensed his energy into wings and used the Hundred Transformations Step to enter the waterfall, his true self wrapped in energy.

Inside the waterfall, there was indeed another hidden world. The natural cave was filled with unique and extraordinary rocks, each with its own shape and form.

The sunlight from outside the waterfall reflected into the cave, creating a hazy mist and giving it a tranquil and mystical atmosphere, like a fairyland.

Su Yi watched as the energetic wings behind him slowly folded. Xi Wuqing, another man, seemed intrigued and said, "This place is very safe. I stumbled upon it by chance and stayed here for a while."

"I see," Su Yi responded.

Su Yi looked around the cave, knowing that it would be extremely difficult to find a place like this if you hadn't been here before.

"I need a few days to heal. You can do as you please," Xi Wuqing said. He then took another pill and sat down, focusing on his breathing, paying no attention to Su Yi.

Soon, a faint green glow emanated from Xi Wuqing's body.

Seeing this, Su Yi found a large stone in a corner, leaped onto it, and sat down, also focusing on his breathing.

At this moment, Su Yi's situation was not ideal. Using the Terrifying Star Blade had depleted all of his energy.

But Su Yi knew that the Terrifying Star Blade was not yet in its full power. It seemed to have been affected by something in the Divine Sword Valley and had not fully awakened. However, it was already so powerful.

Su Yi estimated that if one day the Terrifying Star Blade truly awakened and regained its full power, it would be terrifying beyond imagination.

With the help of Ling Qianxue, using the Terrifying Star Blade, several fingers of the Fire Dragon Master were cut off. This made Su Yi feel more confident than before.

After a moment, a faint red light began to emanate from Su Yi's body, accompanied by a powerful aura of destruction.

...

"The Saint Martial Assembly is about to begin, once every thirty years!"

"Every time the Saint Martial Assembly takes place, it is a fierce battle among the most talented individuals!"

"That's for sure, the Saint Martial Assembly is not an ordinary event, the entire Central Region's forces will participate!"

"If someone can make a name for themselves in the Saint Martial Assembly, their fame will spread across the world!"

In the Central Region, everyone has been talking about the big event called the Saint Martial Assembly.

The Saint Martial Assembly is the most exciting event in the whole Central Region, without a doubt.

The Saint Martial Assembly happens once every thirty years, and it's a competition for the young generation. But it captivates the attention of all the influential people and even ordinary folks in the Central Region.

"I'm disappointed that I can't participate in the Saint Martial Assembly. Only those who are under twenty-five years old are eligible, and I'm already twenty-eight," said one young person with regret.

"I'm only twenty-six. I want to try and see if I can pass the requirements," another young person said, thinking about sneaking into the Saint Martial Assembly and hoping to gain fame from the experience.

"Don't daydream, the testing for the Saint Martial Assembly is very strict. They can determine your age through the tests, just like the rings on a tree. No one should try to sneak in or take advantage, as those who do will face severe punishment!"

Some older people reminded that there is not much opportunity for those who want to sneak in or take advantage to participate in the Saint Martial Assembly. The testing for the Saint Martial Assembly is very strict.

"The Saint Martial Assembly, renowned far and wide once famous. They say that those who show exceptional talent will have the chance to enter Sacred Mountain and cultivate for a period of time. It's a great opportunity indeed!"

Some people couldn't help but feel envious. Sacred Mountain is the paradise and holy place for all cultivators. Everyone desires to be a part of it.
