Upon seeing the red-faced old man, Chu Mo habitually compared his aura with his own and quickly came to a conclusion.
Another seventh-tribulation cultivator!
Based on this calculation, there are currently five cultivators at or above the seventh tribulation level within the restricted area.
This includes an eighth-level tribulation cultivator, a ninth-level tribulation cultivator, and a senior sister whose strength is unknown.
This is because it is impossible to break through one's cultivation level through heavenly tribulations here.
Otherwise, this number would likely increase further.
It's even possible to flip it over.
While Chu Mo was sizing up the old man, the old man was also scrutinizing him closely, his eyes filled with shock and astonishment.
He had never seen this person before, and without asking, he knew that he must be new.
Judging from the traces of the Great Dao's influence on the other party, he is obviously very young, probably not even over twenty-five years old.
But he couldn't even see through the other party's cultivation level? That's quite interesting.
But the strangest thing is...
When the other person looked him up and down, he felt a faint sense of unease.
It felt as if he were being spied on by someone of a higher realm, which made him feel terrified.
This young man is definitely not simple!
"Miss Jiang, who is this...?"
"This is my junior brother, Chu Mo. This cave is for him to use."
Jiang Youwei nodded quietly.
"Oh, no problem. Junior Brother Ling has just arrived here, so we should take good care of him. I'm sure no one will have any objections."
The old man in red robes couldn't help but be surprised. He never expected that the newcomer would be Miss Jiang's junior brother.
Birds of a feather flock together, as they say!
If this senior sister is so exceptional, then this junior brother probably won't be much less so.
"Your junior brother is truly an outstanding person, with extraordinary bearing. No wonder he is Miss Jiang's junior brother!"
The old man in red robes offered a few flattering words of praise before respectfully bowing to Chu Mo and saying:
"I am Luoxia Ke, and I have been here for more than 13,000 years. I hope that Young Master Chu will take good care of me in the future."
Chu Mo knew, of course, that the other party was just being polite out of respect for his senior sister.
Therefore, he didn't take it to heart at all, and politely returned the greeting with a smile.
"You're too kind, senior. I'm new here and it's me who needs your help. Please don't refuse if I need anything in the future."
"Haha, Young Master Chu is too modest. In this place, who would dare to disrespect Miss Jiang? That would be tantamount to courting death!"
"If you ever need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask, and I will never refuse!"
Luo Xiake laughed heartily, clearly pleased with Chu Mo's words.
This is Miss Jiang's junior brother. For him to say such a thing, he must think highly of himself.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Luo Xiake turned and left in high spirits.
He's going to go back and brag to those people that Miss Jiang's junior brother was extremely polite to me, and there's a good chance he'll... ask me for favors in the future, hehe...
Chu Mo followed behind his senior sister, enjoying the beautiful scenery as he went!
Her upright figure was graceful and slender, her curves full and perky; the swaying motion was subtle, yet the charm she exuded was captivating…
Well... the scenery inside the cave is absolutely stunning!
To distract himself, Chu Mo quickly took a few steps to keep pace with his senior sister, his eyes scanning their surroundings as he asked curiously:
"Senior sister, this cave is so spacious, why is only one person allowed to cultivate here? Isn't that a waste?"
Jiang Youwei glared at him, annoyed. How could she not see through his little scheme?
Hmph, you little pervert!
However, she wasn't angry. Her junior brother wasn't an outsider, so what was wrong with looking at him?
If anyone else dared to stare at her like that, she would have slapped them away long ago.
She brushed a strand of soft hair behind her ear and explained as she walked:
"This is a rule that I spearheaded eight thousand years ago. Before that, only a few people with high cultivation levels had the right to use it."
"For this reason, others have united and fought several major battles, resulting in heavy casualties."
"Some grudges have not been completely eliminated even now; people are just too afraid to fight each other because of the rules."
Chu Mo couldn't help but ask with curiosity, "Senior Sister, what are the rules here?"
"It's very simple, no fighting!" Jiang Youwei said, then added:
"If there are any conflicts that cannot be resolved, then we, the three honorary elders, will make the decision. If two of them agree, then it is considered passed."
"Once the decision is made, anyone who dares to disobey will be executed to prevent any disturbance to the peace of this place!"
Jiang Youwei's voice was gentle and calm, but her words were incredibly domineering.
Chu Mo was stunned for a moment. These rules... were really simple and crude.
If there are conflicts that can't be resolved, I'll make the decision for you. If you still don't listen, I'll kill you.
However, in such places, the simpler and more direct the rules, the more deterrent they are.
Otherwise, it will only give others an opportunity to exploit the situation.
No wonder that more than twenty cultivators undergoing tribulation could gather in such a place and still live in peace.
Chu Mo didn't think too much about it and continued to quietly watch his senior sister, waiting for her to continue explaining.
Jiang Youwei glanced at him with slight surprise, thinking he was going to say something.
It seems that my junior brother is not a stubborn and inflexible pushover, which is good!
Her mood brightened, and she couldn't help but smile softly:
"The reason why everyone doesn't go into the cave to cultivate together is purely out of caution, for fear of being ambushed while cultivating. There have been such cases before."
"In addition, everyone practices different techniques, which is also for the purpose of keeping it a secret."
Chu Mo nodded slightly, realizing that things inside weren't as peaceful as they appeared.
Indeed, wherever there are people, there is a world of its own, and it has little to do with the number of people.
