"Then, let's go." Mu Hanyan knew that she couldn't convince herself at all, so she was too lazy to waste words. She looked into the distance and said with a heroic look on her face.
"Let's go!" Hua Yue and others were also full of enthusiasm and shouted in unison.
A carriage and five red charcoal cloud beasts sped towards the direction of the rising sun.
Each country on the continent has a teleportation array leading to the Holy Court, located in the forbidden area outside the Imperial Mausoleum. This was laid out in ancient times by the Holy Court and other countries in order to fight against the Temple. However, after millions of years, the method of arranging the teleportation array has long been lost, and even repairing it has become extremely difficult for later generations. Therefore, it is basically not used in normal times. In addition, the countries on the continent have been wary of the Holy Court for hundreds of years, and the opportunities to use it have become even rarer.
Because the teleportation array would lose a bit of energy with each additional person it transported, Ye Lanxuan disembarked at the gate of the forbidden area. As a Saint and a master of the Sword Saint realm, he naturally had other ways to return to the Holy Court; it would simply take a few more days.
Mu Hanyan wasn't one to dwell on sentimental matters, so she didn't try to stop him. After saying goodbye, she led Hua Yue and the others into the imperial forbidden area. Soon, they came upon the severely damaged ancient formation. By then, over twenty young people had gathered around the teleportation formation, waiting for it to activate.
These people looked to be between eighteen and forty years old, with varying strengths. The weakest had just been promoted to a swordsman, and the strongest was no more than a grand swordsman.
This wasn't surprising. After all, descendants of the Guardian Gods like Mu Hanyan, whose bloodlines awakened before the age of sixteen, were rare. As far as Mu Hanyan knew, Jiang Qiling was the only other such person besides herself. Others who awakened their bloodlines after the age of sixteen, while their cultivation abilities far surpassed those of ordinary people, were still just ordinary people. After all, the Guardian Gods' bloodline became increasingly diluted with each generation. Therefore, many cultivators who awakened too late weren't necessarily as powerful as those from aristocratic families with exceptional abilities.
Of course, the advantage of their bloodline still exists. As time goes by, they understand more and more that breaking through the bottleneck of the Sword Saint realm is much easier than other practitioners. However, generally speaking, that is many years later.
Perhaps there are more descendants of the guardian gods whose bloodline in Anyun Kingdom has been awakened than those in front of us. However, those who are too old have missed the best time to practice. Even if they go to Beiyuan Mist Plain, they will not achieve much and will just die in vain. Therefore, they are excluded. Those who have been promoted to Sword Saints are definitely not young at all. Secondly, they have undergone a complete transformation and are no longer malleable. Of course, they are also excluded.
Therefore, in the end, only those practitioners under the age of 40 with varying strengths will be selected.
Mu Hanyan looked around and found that except for Guan Shanhe, her schoolmate from Longyan College, and Ye Fengyun, whom she had known for a long time, she didn't recognize any of the others.
Those who were the strongest and oldest were not of the same generation as her, so they had no connection at all.
Most of the young ones were not very strong. Some of them looked like they were from noble families in the capital, and they had just started to become sword masters. Judging from the unstable aura on their bodies, it was very likely that they had just broken through and been promoted in the past two days. Before that, they did not even have the qualifications to go to Luoan City, and had no dealings with her.
However, these people obviously recognized Mu Hanyan. As soon as they saw her, they showed awe and flattery, and hurriedly bowed to her.
