Chapter 308 The Prodigy Before the Great Catastrophe

After all, the oldest among them is several thousand years old, and the youngest is several hundred years old. In addition, they are all cultivators, so their memories cannot be too bad.

If only one person finds the name familiar, they might be mistaken, but since everyone finds it familiar, this person named Xu Yi is definitely not simple.

"Sect Master Mu, do you know this Xu Yi? Your expressions just now seemed a bit off. Is there something wrong with him?"

And those people around him, who managed to enter the ancient battlefield so silently, must be no ordinary individuals.

When Sect Master Murong, who was sitting next to the Weapon Sect, saw Li Mu say that the person looked familiar, he noticed the change in the expressions of the Weapon Sect members.

After all, it's unbelievable that such a young ninth-grade weapon-refining master hasn't even made a sound.

If they didn't recognize him, they could say he was from another world, but since so many people from the Weapon Sect felt he was familiar, then he must be from their Nine Nether Continent.

Upon hearing this, the Wood Sect Master of the Weapon Sect was speechless.

He felt it was familiar, but he genuinely couldn't remember! When asked, he was completely clueless.

Before he could say anything, a startled exclamation came from behind him from the Third Elder of his sect.

"I remember now! Sect Master, I remember who this person is! Sect Master, do you remember that notebook in our library?"

That was left behind by that senior. Before that great calamity, our Weapon Sect had a senior of extraordinary talent.

At that time, he was only twenty years old, yet he had already demonstrated exceptional talent in weapon crafting, and the founding patriarch personally accepted him as a disciple.

In just a few years, that senior had risen to level nine. However, the great calamity that followed brought devastation to the entire Nine Nether Continent.

Countless prodigies perished back then, and that senior was one of them.

The Third Elder of the Weapon Sect, still seemingly unsatisfied with what he had said, suddenly looked at his sect leader, his voice trembling, and said:

"Sect Master... Sect Master, he... Senior Xu, wasn't he already dead in that great battle? What happened?"

And didn't the Supreme Elder find Senior Xu's mustard seed bag on the ancient battlefield back then? This...”

As the Third Elder finished speaking, the entire platform fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes turned to the group from the Weapon Sect.

The center of attention, Sect Master Mu: "........."

Xu Yi? Ancient battlefield! Great calamity! Holy crap, this guy is actually from their Weapon Sect, and he's on the same level as their founding ancestor.

He knew it! This person sounded familiar and looked familiar. It turned out he really had seen him before, on the sixth floor of the library, a place only sect leaders and elders could go up.

Inside the sixth floor of the library, there is a record of the most brilliant and talented individuals in the Weapon Sect over the years.

Xu Yi was among them, and quite high up in the group.

If it weren't for that great catastrophe, Senior Xu's achievements would probably have reached a level that no one could match, after all, he was an unparalleled genius.

Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still any longer. He jumped up from his chair and walked straight toward the group of people who were studying the teleportation channel without saying a word.

Meanwhile, the group waiting for Sect Master Mu to clarify their doubts remained silent.

Somewhat bewildered, but not too much, because judging from Sect Master Mu's expression just now, this matter is 100% true!

So... the two people following behind Senior Xu, if they remembered correctly, one was named Yuan Qingyun and the other was named Feng Xi.

After exchanging a silent glance, the five sect leaders suddenly realized what was happening and hurriedly took out their communication jade tokens from their storage bags.

He then contacted the elders who were currently guarding the sect and asked them to quickly go to the library and search through the list of past geniuses, especially those before the Great Cataclysm, to see if these two were among them.

After the message was sent, the sect leaders became restless, feeling that these two people were also quite important.

Boss Gu and his group knew this, since they had said from the beginning that they were from another world and were some kind of interdimensional merchants.

However, Xu Yi's appearance brought them no less shock than that of a prodigy before the great catastrophe.

Good heavens! Millions of years have passed, how is he still alive? Could it be that those people didn't die back then? Or were they trapped in the ancient battlefield?

That doesn't make sense! That catastrophe resulted in heavy casualties, and the ancient battlefield was strangely sealed off at the time, so almost no one inside came out alive.

Another point is that after they were able to open the passage to the ancient battlefield, they went in countless times.

However, the place was extremely desolate, devoid of any signs of human life, which is why they were surprised by Xu Yi's appearance.

After a brief moment of surprise, the communication tokens of the sect leaders rang at the same time. After exchanging glances, they looked away and connected their communication tokens.

After listening to what the person on the other end of the communication token had to say, the sect leaders looked at each other again, with Sect Leader Murong unable to help but speak first.

"Our sect has no such two people. What about yours?"

"We don't have these two people either, not even before the Great Cataclysm!" Sect Master Qingfeng of the Beast Taming Sect also shook his head.

Upon hearing this, everyone present turned their gaze to the remaining two sects.

After all, of the five sects, only the Weaponry Sect was mentioned earlier; the Beast Taming Sect and the Pill Refining Sect didn't have any members. Therefore, these two are most likely from the Sword Control Sect and the Soaring Cloud Sect.

Meeting the gazes of the crowd, the sect leaders of both sects silently nodded. Indeed, these two were from their respective sects.

After listening to the communication sent back by their elders, they were all stunned. It turned out that their situation was the same as that of the Weapon Sect. They were all prodigies before that great calamity.

"Hey! You two, speak up! Are these two really from your sect?"

The impatient Sect Master Qingfeng was getting impatient seeing them nod but not hear them speak, and finally couldn't help but ask.

The two sect leaders: "........."

This person is still as impatient as ever! After a moment of internal monologue, the two sect leaders looked at each other again.

After the order of precedence was determined, Sect Master Li of the Imperial Sword Sect spoke first.
