The bottleneck that he had been practicing hard for two years without being able to break through was successfully broken into the realm of mastery after only ten days of instruction from a senior master.
Thinking back to the beginning when he was full of resentment and spoke harshly to his predecessors, Xiang Jianjue felt ashamed.
This time, he was truly convinced.
I just don’t know what the “compensation” that the senior mentioned is?
"Senior, are you there?"
He shouted to Jian Jue and stared at the empty space in front of him, but the golden words did not appear for a long time.
When Xiang Jianjue saw the protective barrier earlier, he knew that his senior was most likely gone. He didn't feel surprised at this moment, but just a little disappointed.
The senior often shows up in the evening. Wait until then to apologize and thank him.
He put away his magic sword, looked back at the wooden house in the center of the pool, then turned around and went straight back to Yunlong Peak, preparing to come back in the evening.
But who would have thought that when he just returned to his courtyard, he saw his senior brother Qingsen waiting at the door, his brows full of anxiety.
Xiang Jianjue's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately walked over quickly, "Senior Brother Qing, what happened?"
Qing Sen was also shocked when he saw Xiang Jianjue's beggar-like dignity: "Junior brother, why are you so embarrassed?"
"It's okay, it's just from my training, I'm fine."
He explained to Jian Jue and was about to tell him the good news of the breakthrough, but was interrupted by Qingsen's words.
"Follow me down the mountain!"
Qing Sen pulled Xiang Jianjue up and walked down the mountain, saying as he walked, "A strange place has appeared! It's at the foot of the mountain, in the village closest to us. Our eldest brother has been trapped there for two days and two nights."
Weird place?!
Xiang Jianjue was shocked, and the horrific memories buried deep in his heart immediately surfaced in his mind, and his face turned extremely pale in an instant.
"Junior Brother!"
Qing Sen shouted, calling Xiang Jianjue back from his deep thoughts. He said solemnly, "You are the only survivor of that strange place back then. In the entire Wanjian Sect, you are the only one who still has some understanding of the strange place."
Xiang Jianjue took a deep breath, his eyes becoming resolute. "Brother, I know. How is the situation? Have the people from the Incense Hall arrived yet?"
"not yet."
Qing Sen's eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "More than a year ago, Senior Brother killed a disciple from the Incense Hall who was secretly refining the statue of Sheng Ji in the mortal village. They are still not here today, so they must be holding a grudge and doing this on purpose."
Xiang Jianjue clenched his fist and said in a deep voice, "There's still time. The strange land will only expand and spread wantonly at first, so it's not particularly dangerous. It's only been two days, so Senior Brother must still be alive."
When Qing Sen heard this, he immediately felt relieved as if he had taken a reassurance pill and said, "The Sect Master and the elders have all gone and are waiting for you outside the strange land."
"Um!"
Xiang Jianjue responded solemnly, and the two of them came to the front of the cliff. They waved their sleeves and threw out the magic sword. Their feet landed on the sword body, and instantly turned into two streams of light and disappeared into the sky.
At the same time, Xiang Sheng, who was reading a book in the Sutra Library, suddenly raised his head, looked in the direction where Xiang Jianjue flew away, and frowned slightly.
She knew that the Wanjian Sect had been protecting Xiang Jianjue, allowing him to practice in the sect for two more years, and then go out to gain experience after his cultivation level had improved.
But today, he was sent out in a strange way. Is it because the demon from somewhere is out of control?
The thought flashed through his mind, and he raised an eyebrow at Xiang Sheng, then lowered his head as if nothing had happened and continued reading.
One day passed like this.
Ding Ding——
The bell for closing the chamber rang, and the disciples left in an orderly manner, whispering among themselves, vaguely mentioning words like "strange place" and "dangerous", but their words were vague.
Xiang Sheng overheard this but didn't take it seriously. Just as she was about to return to the pond to practice, she saw the young woman from the courtyard next door to hers on Yunlong Peak running over and calling out anxiously, "Junior Sister, go back and check! Your mother has fainted!"
Xiang Sheng's expression changed slightly, and without saying a word, he quickly headed for Yunlong Peak.
The girl only felt a flash before her eyes, and the little sister who was in front of her just now disappeared, leaving her stunned.
"What kind of cultivation level does Junior Sister have? How can her body movements be so powerful?"
A beam of white light flew towards the front of the courtyard and stopped abruptly at the door.
The white light dissipated, revealing Xiang Sheng's figure. Her spiritual sense swept over the situation in the room. She pursed her lips and pushed the door open.
"Fifth Elder, how is my mother?"
The Fifth Elder was startled when he heard the sudden sound. He turned around and saw that it was Xiang Sheng, and his surprise subsided a little.
Was he so focused on taking the pulse just now that he didn't notice anyone approaching the courtyard?
Without thinking too much, the Fifth Elder looked at Xiang Sheng and suddenly felt a little distressed. His tone softened and he said, "Come and talk to your mother."
Seeing that he avoided answering, Xiang Sheng's heart sank slightly. He took two steps at a time and came to the bedside. He grabbed Luo Qingyun's hand and probed into it with his spiritual consciousness.
A cold look immediately emerged in her eyes.
