The peak of Demon Sect Receiving Peak was deadly quiet.

No one could have imagined that this exceptionally good-looking man would impulsively leap from the towering, cloud-shrouded peak!

Thankfully, this is a world of immortals. If this happened on Earth, everyone present would probably exclaim in unison, “Holy shit!”

After a brief silence, the peak of Receiving Peak exploded with a flurry of chatter and gasps of surprise.

Not to mention the low-level Patrolling Disciples, even Mao Nanbei and Elder Qiu Shui were shocked and confused.

Murong Yan, the congenial man, wore a worried expression, while Ji Li’s eyes reddened, big teardrops welled up and rolled down her cheeks like pearls falling off a string.

Everyone thought that jumping from here meant certain death.

The most astonishing thing to Mao Nanbei and Elder Qiu Shui was that they could have stopped Lu Xun, but for some reason an unknown force was suppressing them, leaving them frozen.

More precisely, everyone except Lu Xun was suppressed!

Where did this power come from?

After Mao Nanbei and Elder Qiu Shui exchanged a glance, they flew straight down the mountain.

After a moment’s thought, Elder Qiu Shui quickly followed suit.

Mao Nanbei’s thinking was simple. After all, Lu Xun was someone she had brought back. Even if he were now smashed to pulp, she ought to give him a proper burial rather than abandon his corpse in the wilderness.

“Just to avoid being my mount, he chooses a dramatic display of preferring death to submission?” Mao Nanbei felt a bit complicated inside.

The most frustrating thing was, everything happened so fast, and she was suppressed by an invisible force, so she didn’t even have time to utter a single word:

“The Master has gone on a long journey, he isn’t in the back mountain now, your jumping is pointless!”

Alas, it was too pitiful, he died for nothing.

When Mao Nanbei descended to the foot of the mountain, she extended her Divine Sense looking for Lu Xun’s body. Very soon, she found it. Strangely enough, there were several people standing around at the foot of the mountain.

These people had formed a circle around Lu Xun.

They even alarmed the Sect Master and several Peak Masters of the main peak!

“Little Martial Aunt.” Everyone respectfully greeted little loli, considering her senior status.

The Sect Master of the Demon Sect was named Shen Yan, wearing a black robe threaded with gold. He was very short, equivalent to a 1.6-meter-tall man on Earth, and was bald.

He focused on the practice of Fire Cultivation Techniques. Each practice session was like being burnt by fire, so he didn’t have a single hair on his body.

Not only was he bald, but even his eyebrows and eyelashes had been burnt off, which made him look a bit odd.

He was one of the rare Tier 8 powerhouses on the Heavenly Dust Continent, with an earthly Cultivation Base, considered a prominent powerhouse.

He was just really short, standing alongside other Peak Masters, he seemed very out of place.

Surprisingly, this, one of the strongest on the continent seemed troubled, as if contemplating something.

“Little Martial Aunt, did this man just jump from Receiving Peak?” Shen Yan asked.

Mao Nanbei nodded.

“And right when he jumped, was there an intangible force spreading from the Receiving Peak?” Shen Yan continued.

Mao Nanbei nodded again.

It seemed that the Sect Master and the Peak Masters had sensed that force, hence they had rushed here.

They were profound cultivators, so they had arrived much faster than little loli on Receiving Peak.

What was strange was that with their abilities, they still couldn’t identify the source of that mysterious power?

Mao Nanbei sort of understood, it was obvious that Lu Xun, whom she brought back, had posed a big problem.

“Did I cause trouble again?” little loli thought to herself.

Why was there the word ‘again’?

The Peak Master of Thunder Peak was also the Law Enforcement Elder of the Demon Sect named Gongshu Pan, his face was also heavy with worry.

Moreover, what was with everyone staring at Lu Xun’s corpse?

I know he was very good-looking, but given such a high fall, even the most handsome face should have been smashed into pulp, right?

Could it be that a good-looking person could exhibit a unique charm even after tumbling down a cliff?

Little loli took two steps forward, took a closer look, and was surprised.

Lu Xun’s body was a horrible sight, indescribable below the neck, we won’t discuss that, only that it was mangled.

Yet his face was completely unharmed, indeed a wonder.

The fresh blood sprayed from his body added a touch of pitiful beauty.

“Truly worthy of being the mount I had set my eyes on.” Such a statement spontaneously sprang in Mao Nanbei’s heart.

But she soon noticed something wrong.

Lu Xun was so badly injured, his bones splintered and scattered, and so much blood had flowed onto the ground. Even if his face was intact, the back of his head should have been smashed. If it had been someone else, they might have been dead beyond dead!

But he still had a breath left in him!

Yes, he’s still hanging on by a thread!

He’s actually not dead?!

Impossible! This makes no sense!

How could a mortal jump off from the Lead Peak, get smashed up like this, and not die?

She had no idea that Lu Xun’s current state was like this:

[Life Value: 1/100].

[Resurrection Count: 2/3].

He used up one resurrection opportunity, thus there was still a drop of blood left in him.

But, he did cross into another world after all, it wasn’t a game, so he passed out completely.

The reason why he bravely chose to jump off the cliff was because he triggered the hidden mission.

Once the little girl had finished stating all the conditions, the special hidden mission [Join the Small Study At The Back Mountain] was officially triggered, and he chose to accept it without hesitation.

This was the first mission he had triggered since he crossed over!

“Once the mission is triggered, it’s a done deal!” Lu Xun thought.

And then, he jumped off the edge.

In a way, this hidden mission in “Heavenly Dust” is equivalent to a lucky draw..

Whoever is the first to trigger and complete a series of missions to get to the Demon Sect, and then triggers this hidden mission, can worship the master as their teacher by sacrificing one resurrection opportunity!

Every player has a chance to resurrect, it’s simply first come, first served.

The lucky player back in the day was just fortunate. He unexplainably completed a series of tasks that brought him to the Demon Sect, then jumped off a cliff, and became a disciple of the master.

This is equivalent to the game offering benefits.

Now, Lu Xun had gotten to it first.

But this process can be very painful. The game can nullify the feeling of pain, but reality cannot.

Still, he jumped off the cliff.

He’s a wolfman.

No, he’s a wolf wipeout!

That being said, at this moment, the Sect Master Shen Yan of the Demon Sect was also lost in thought.

Although no one knew how this young man achieved his feat, he indeed fulfilled all the conditions set by the master.

However… the master is currently away, right?

And this young man is barely holding onto his life…

For a moment, even the Sect Master Shen Yan of the Demon Sect had no idea how to proceed.

After all, even as the Sect Master of the Demon Sect, he had no right to make decisions for the master.

On the other hand, the master could actually decide who would be the Sect Master of the Demon Sect…

Even though the master always appeared gentle and polite, making everyone feel like they’re basking in a gentle breeze, the subject matter involved is about taking in a disciple.

If this young man truly becomes the master’s disciple, he would be Mao Nanbei’s junior brother, and the uncle master of others present.

With uncle master lying horribly injured on the ground, shouldn’t we do something?

But what if the master doesn’t accept him?

Plus, considering the strange invisible force just now, and his eerily miraculous survival from jumping off the cliff, everything seems to be shrouded in a layer of mystery. It’s as though a thick fog of uncertainty has suddenly rolled in.

I fear there’s trouble brewing!

A cold voice echoed at this moment, even though the speaker was not present, her voice arrived.

The voice sounded icy cold, and she spoke in a weird, slow, disjointed fashion:

“Mas…ter says it’s…ok.”

Within the whole Demon Sect, only one person had such a unique way of speaking, she was from the Small Study at the Mountain Back.

She was the second disciple of the master, the second Aunt Master to everyone present, and Mao Nanbe’s second senior sister.

It seemed like she got in touch with the master through some special channels and received the master’s approval.

Now, everything would be much easier.

At this moment, Lu Xun, lying on the ground like a lump of mud, had no idea that the task information had changed.

The task information now showed:

[Special Hidden Mission: Join the Small Study At The Mountain Back (Completed)]!
