Arriving Dragon's Nest

Two weeks later, at the Imperial Peak.

Xiao Yun and Emperor Tian were preparing to depart for the Dragon's Nest, and Uncle Fu, Lin Xiaoya, and Xi Chunyu came to bid them farewell.

"Young Master, this is a spatial ring. It contains many spirit beast meat, Xuantie Flying Knives, and numerous spirit stones," Uncle Fu took out a spatial ring and handed it to Xiao Yun, instructing him.

Xiao Yun nodded, accepting the spatial ring, and thanked Uncle Fu.

On the side, Lin Xiaoya looked at Xiao Yun reluctantly. "Senior Brother, please be careful."

Xiao Yun smiled and patted Lin Xiaoya's head, his face full of confidence. "Don't you believe in Senior Brother's strength?"

"May Senior Brother Xiao be victorious!" Xi Chunyu whispered her blessings.

Xiao Yun smiled at her and then left Emperor Peak with Emperor Tian.

At the same time, on the peaks within the Chaos Sacred Land, many people were looking towards Xiao Yun's direction, seemingly aware of where he was going.

After all, the opening of the Dragon's Nest was a grand event in the cultivation world. Who wouldn't know about it?

"Senior Brother Xiao is going to the Dragon's Nest!"

"For many years, the geniuses who went to the Dragon's Nest were ambushed by the Tai Chu Sacred Land, resulting in heavy casualties. Senior Brother Xiao is probably in danger this time."

"Hmph, Senior Brother Xiao has already reached the Seven Forbidden Territory, possessing a strength of 800,000 jin, ranking tenth among the strongest in the Body Refining Realm's history. He will definitely sweep through the Dragon's Nest."

"Senior Brother Xiao is indeed very strong, but I heard that the Tai Chu Sacred Land has a Supreme Body this time, ranking fourth, the Space-Time Body. His strength is probably above Senior Brother Xiao."

"I hope Senior Brother Xiao can achieve a great victory and bring glory to our Chaos Sacred Land."

...

There were many disciples in the Chaos Sacred Land who were wishing Xiao Yun well.

After all, Xiao Yun's journey to the Dragon's Nest represented the honor of their Chaos Sacred Land.

If Xiao Yun won, they would also have glory on their faces. If Xiao Yun lost, they would be mocked when they went out for training in the future.

Therefore, except for a few foolish people, almost everyone hoped that Xiao Yun would achieve a great victory and return with honor.

"Many people are watching me."

In the sky, Xiao Yun and Emperor Tian stood on a white cloud and felt the gazes from below. These gazes were filled with strong anticipation.

Unconsciously, Xiao Yun felt a sense of pressure. This journey to the Dragon's Nest carried great responsibility!

Emperor Tian sighed beside him, "Our Chaos Sacred Land has been silent for too long, so long that the practitioners outside have forgotten that our Chaos Sacred Land is one of the six great sacred lands in the Central Region."

Xiao Yun's face was full of confidence when he heard this. He clenched his fist tightly and said with shining eyes, "Then this time, let me, Xiao Yun, show them that our Chaos Sacred Land is still the strongest!"

Emperor Tian smiled slightly, very satisfied with Xiao Yun's confidence. As an extraordinary genius, he should possess such confidence.

To be invincible, one must believe that they are invincible. Otherwise, if one doesn't even have confidence in oneself, how can they defeat the enemy?

Therefore, every invincible genius holds the belief of "with me, invincible."

"Have a smooth journey!" Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in Xiao Yun and Emperor Tian's ears.

It was the Lord of the Chaos Sacred Land.

Xiao Yun and Emperor Tian quickly saluted the Lord from a distance.

The Lord of the Chaos Sacred Land smiled and nodded at them.

Xiao Yun sensed the expectations in the eyes of the Lord of the Chaos Sacred Land. His heart filled with pride, and he couldn't help but shout loudly, "Today, I, Xiao Yun, will go to the Dragon's Nest and sweep away all the geniuses, showcasing the might of our Chaos Sacred Land!"

The loud voice echoed throughout the entire Chaos Sacred Land.

Immediately, the Lord of the Chaos Sacred Land and many Supreme Elders, upon hearing his words, wore expressions of satisfaction on their faces.

The disciples of the Chaos Sacred Land also felt incredibly excited and silently blessed Xiao Yun in their hearts.

...

Leaving the Chaos Sacred Land, Emperor Tian increased his speed and hurried towards the Dragon's Nest.

After more than ten days, the two of them arrived at the Dragon's Nest.

It was a huge canyon surrounded by a golden barrier. Inside, the clouds surged, and spiritual energy permeated the air. It was impossible to see the scenery clearly, but one could vaguely sense a vast dragon's aura that shook one's spirit.

At the entrance of the canyon, there was a large stone platform where young figures shuttled back and forth. They were engaged in lively discussions and conversations.

"Disciple, you wait here for the opening of the Dragon's Nest. Your master will go and meet a few old friends first." Emperor Tian left Xiao Yun behind and flew away.

Xiao Yun's sharp eyes quickly spotted a young woman suddenly appearing on a white cloud, leaving with his master.

"There's an affair!" Xiao Yun squinted his eyes.

However, he wasn't particularly surprised. After all, Emperor Tian was once the first son of the Chaos Sacred Land, enjoying great prestige. Having one or two confidantes was normal.

Xiao Yun could only sigh about his master's youthful vigor.

"I suppose you must be Senior Brother Xiao, right?" At that moment, a young girl walked over. She blinked her big watery eyes and curiously sized up Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun was momentarily taken aback and asked in confusion, "May I ask for the young lady's name and why you know me?"

The young girl smiled playfully and said, "I'm Tang Yunyun from the Mountain and Water Sect. As for why I know Senior Brother Xiao, hehe, the beauty who just left with your master, she's my master."

After speaking, Tang Yunyun even winked at Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun couldn't help but smile. So this girl was the disciple of his master's romantic interest. In that case, she could be considered his junior sister. After all, who knew if this girl's master would become his future stepmother.

Xiao Yun became polite and smiled, saying, "So you're Junior Sister Tang. I am Xiao, and I offer my respects."

Tang Yunyun examined Xiao Yun, her eyes filled with curiosity. She smiled and said, "My master often tells me that Senior Brother Di Tian has taken an extraordinary disciple who will surely become famous in the Nine Heavens Continent. Now that I've met Senior Brother Xiao, it seems he is indeed remarkable."

"Junior Sister Tang, you flatter me. I can see that your physical body radiates golden light, indicating your exceptional talent. You must have already reached the extreme level of body refining," Xiao Yun and Tang Yunyun exchanged compliments.

However, at that moment, a carriage came rushing from a distance, passing through the spot where Tang Yunyun was standing.

Therefore, one of the carriage drivers shouted at Tang Yunyun angrily, "This is the territory of the Hegemon Sect. Why don't you get out of the way?"

In the eyes of the carriage driver, anyone who heard the words "Hegemon Sect" should obediently step aside.

However, Tang Yunyun was not one to swallow her pride. She snorted coldly, leaped forward, and directly slapped her palm down, killing the spirited horse pulling the carriage.

"Ah..." The carriage driver exclaimed in shock and fell heavily to the ground.

As for the carriage itself, it emitted a faint light and landed steadily on the ground.

Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes. He could sense two powerful auras within the carriage, both surpassing Tang Yunyun's strength. They were likely geniuses who had entered the forbidden domain. No wonder they dared to be so arrogant.

"How dare you stop the carriage of our Hegemon Sect and kill our spirited horse? Are you tired of living?" The carriage driver, after crawling up, glared at Tang Yunyun angrily.

Tang Yunyun coldly snorted, "Your Hegemon Sect is so mighty that you can crash into people and still act so self-righteous?"

The carriage driver glared at Tang Yunyun in anger.

At that moment, the carriage's curtains were lifted, and a girl in a bright red dress stepped out. She looked at Tang Yunyun coldly and asked, "Did we crash into you?"

Tang Yunyun was taken aback, then snorted, "If I weren't stronger, you would have crashed into me by now."

"So, we didn't crash into you!" the girl in the red dress said coldly and then turned into a streak of afterimage, disappearing from the spot.

"Not good..." Xiao Yun's face changed, but by the time he was about to make a move, it was already too late.

"Slap!" A clear sound of a slap echoed, and Xiao Yun immediately saw Tang Yunyun's face turn red, bloodstains appearing at the corner of her mouth. She gritted her teeth and glared at the girl in the red dress in front of her.
