Chapter 55 - Entering Cangxuan Sect

A green cloud flitted across the sky with a whoosh.

Zhou Yuan and the rest were seated atop the cloud, their gazes full of curiosity as they observed the vast land before them. Ever since entering the Shengzhou Continent, they could feel that the Genesis Qi here far surpassed the Cangmang Continent's.

Moreover, they could see for themselves how vast the Shengzhou Continent was.

Eight days had passed since they left the boat, every day spent rushing without rest. They had already lost track of how many cities they had passed, and how many teleportation arrays they had used, not even knowing how many hundreds and thousands of miles each jump had covered...

Even so, they had yet to reach their destination.

Such vastness opened their eyes.

All of a sudden, Mu Wuji opened his mouth and said, "We'll reach the Cangxuan Sect tomorrow."

These words were akin to pumping a surge of energy through Zhou Yuan and the rest. Although they had not used any Genesis Qi during the past eight days of travel, it was still a rather tiring affair. Fortunately, their destination was finally within sight.

As such, a day swiftly past under an atmosphere of bubbling anticipation.

When the sun rose high into the sky the next day, the resting Zhou Yuan and the rest suddenly felt the surrounding Genesis Qi become stronger. They immediately opened their eyes, and saw mists swirling in between countless ancient mountain ranges, each giant peak like a titan that could hold up the heavens.

Amongst the giant mountains, one would faintly see countless halls, pavilions, and other buildings, the misty feeling seemingly filled with a celestial aura. Meanwhile, countless figures of light rapidly shuttled between...

Genesis Runes were faintly discernible high up in the sky. These Genesis Runes were connected, forming an enormous Genesis Rune boundary. The boundary stretched downwards, covering the innumerable mountain ranges.

These Runes fascinated Zhou Yuan to no end, as even with his Spirit Cultivation he could not decipher much from them.

The green cloud under Mu Wuji's feet approached the Genesis Rune boundary. Rays of light shined from it as if checking his identity. Moments later, a crack peeled open in the boundary.

Mu Wuji directed the green cloud in. The moment they entered, Zhou Yuan and the rest immediately felt the world around them become fresher and clearer. Concentrated Genesis Qi flowed into their bodies along with the air, wave after wave washing through their bodies.

"What a paradise." Fatty praised. Training here would undoubtedly be amazing for one's cultivation.

The others curiously asked, "Is this the Cangxuan Sect?"

"This is only the outer mountains of the Cangxuan Sect." Mu Wuji chuckled. "Only after you guys pass the peak selection ceremony will you be able to see the Cangxuan Sect's true face."

"Next, I'll bring you guys to the gathering point for the new disciples."

By the time his words faded, he had already driven the green cloud past several towering mountains. Dozens of minutes later, their speed began to slow as an extremely magnificent mountain appeared within their sight.

At the waist of the mountain was a gigantic plaza. A seemingly endless stream of light figures were flying over from every direction and landing on the plaza, making it appear extremely busy.

When Mu Wuji landed the green cloud on the plaza, a man in Cangxuan Sect's green robes approached and welcomed them with a smile, "You're finally here Teacher Uncle Mu. Your group is already the last batch of new disciples."

"Can't help it, the Cangmang Continent is just too far." Mu Wuji waved his hand, before turning his head to look at the group behind him. "Zhou Yuan and Yaoyao, follow me. The others wait here."

After finishing, he led the two of them toward a building at the back of the plaza.

"Whose in charge of this new batch of outer mountain disciples?" Along the way, Mu Wuji asked the Cangxuan Sect disciple who had welcomed them earlier.

"Teacher Uncle Chen Yuan from the Heavenly Lightning Peak." Answered the disciple.

"Chen Yuan?" Mu Wuji's brows furrowed slightly, but he did not say anything else.

They passed through the plaza, arrived before the building, and pushed the doors open.

"Hehe, I was wondering who it was. So it's you old Mu. Your efficiency is not that good, you're the last to return this time."

Zhou Yuan looked over, only to find that the one who had spoken was a thin middle-aged man. Though he was smiling, there was an ulterior motive behind it.

Mu Wuji retorted, "Want to try going to the Cangmang Continent?"

"How can anyone good come from such a remote place, what's the point in going." The man called Chen Yuan smiled in an insincere manner.

Mu Wuji could not be bothered with him, pointing at Zhou Yuan and Yaoyao as he said, "These two are the new disciples from the Cangmang Continent. They need two first-class disciple quotas."

Chen Yuan shot a look at the two and frowned, a difficult look emerging on his face as he said. "Old Mu, you returned too late. The number of new disciples this time has already exceeded the limit. There are not many first-class disciple quotas, and all have them have been reserved in advance."

Chen Yuan suggested with a wave of his hand, "How about I gave the two of them second-class disciple quotas."

Mu Wuji's pipe slammed into the table as he coldly snorted, "Don't give me that crap. Who doesn't know of your methods? Have you secretly exchanged away the first-class disciple quotas?"

"Okay let's cut to the chase Mr. Chen,", As Chen Yuan was about to retort, Zhou Yuan spoke up. He took out the Token given by that Old man and showed it to Chen Yuan.

"From what I observed you are not the type of person who would be swayed by mere words, so let's get this straight,", Saying this Zhou Yuan stared intensely into his eyes, "If you do not give me and Yao Yao the First-Class Disciple Quotas then I will go report this matter to Sect Master. About how Despite having strength deserving a first-class Disciple Quota, you did not give them to us because you sold them underhandedly to some little brats from Shengzhou Continent, just for some mere profits."

"Oh and also If you think that the Sect Master won't see me, just take a look at this beautiful Token,", Finishing the speech on a sarcastic note Zhou Yuan showed him the Token up close.

Just seeing the token made Chen Yuan's eyes pop out of his skull as he knew that this Token could really allow this kid to see the Sect master, especially this one which was given by that Law Domain Expert.

"Also I am quite sure that Teacher Uncle Mu would vouch for the credibility of my words, Right?", Zhou Yuan briefly winked at Mu Wuji who smirked widely.

"Yes of course I would, our Sect promotes Honesty so how could I not act as your evidence, Little Yuan."

Zhou Yuan winced a little as he heard 'Little Yuan', but he decided to ignore this for now.

Seeing this Chen Yuan panicked, and he immediately used his special skill, which was acting shameless.

"Ah Brother Mu what are you talking about, how could I not give these two first-class disciple quota, It is just that I was just testing their courage to face pressure from their peers due to their privileges," Chen Yuan spoke with a straight face without even getting his facial muscles to twitch a little, which Zhou Yuan found incredible.

Mu Wuji tried his best to suppress his smile before he turned around and began leaving, "Ok then make sure that both of them get the Quota, Let's go back young ones."

Watching them leave an expression of Resentment and anger formed on Chen Yuan's face, how dare that brat try to threaten him? he would make sure that he got taught a good lesson later.

Just as he resentfully took out a booklet and was about to register Zhou Yuan and Yaoyao's information he was startled by Zhou Yuan's voice transmission.

"Teacher Chen make sure that you have some healers present when you announce the classes of Disciples, and also do not go out of your way to get me in trouble with Shengzhou Continent People, I will humble those brats later on your behalf..."

Chen Yuan nearly slipped off his chair.

Damn, how did this kid read his mind and intention with such Precision?

Chen Yuan shivered a little.

He made a note in his mind to not go out of his way to mess with this lad, who knows when he will go on to see the Sect Master.
