Chapter 40 The Terrifying Foundation, Nangong Yuan's Shock



After leaving the spirit hall, Nangong Yuan strolled through the sect.

Only then did she truly understand what true depth meant. Just the spiritual energy that turned into mist and drifted in the space was far superior to that of ten Red Phoenix Pavilions.

She had witnessed the profound resources of holy lands and imperial palaces, but none of them could achieve a spiritual energy concentration twenty times that of the Misty Sect.

This made Nangong Yuan even more curious about Xu Chengyu.

This man is so mysterious; she can't see through him at all, whether it's his terrifying strength and methods or his underlying abilities.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that Xu Chengyu had no ill intentions towards her.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to leave so easily when she was in the spirit hall.

"snort."

"Am I not beautiful enough?"

"still..."

As she spoke, Nangong Yuan couldn't help but look at her murder weapon before moving away.

It kept going "duang-duang" in my sight.

Unable to understand the reason, Nangong Yuan took a deep breath, which calmed her emotions somewhat.

Continue walking in the direction of the back mountain.

The entire Misty Sect felt incredibly vast to her, and the only thing that puzzled Nangong Yuan was how unusually quiet the sect was.

The quiet made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Along the way, I haven't seen any other sect disciples, it's as if there's no human presence at all.

Although the Red Phoenix Pavilion is just a transcendent force, it is only able to have a place in the Azure Domain.

But after thousands of years of accumulation, even within a sect, there are still five thousand disciples.

Given the profound foundation of the Misty Sect, it shouldn't be so deserted.

Soon they arrived at the spirit hall on the back mountain that Xu Chengyu had mentioned. This was where he usually rested, and as his maid, Nangong Yuan would also stay here in the future.

We had just stepped into the outer perimeter of the spirit hall.

The towering shadows of the trees not far away immediately caught Nangong Yuan's attention.

The quantity of extreme numbers?

That familiar power of the Great Dao.

"Is this the Enlightenment Tree?"

"so much?"

The expression in Nangong Yuan's beautiful eyes had completely changed. The existence of the Enlightenment Tree was a mystery throughout the entire Qingxuan Continent.

Legend has it that there is an Enlightenment Tree on the continent that has lived for countless years, but it has undergone millions of years of changes from ancient times to the present, and no force has ever been able to find it.

This is precisely why Enlightenment Tea is so scarce.

There are actually nine of them in the Misty Sect now?

How could Nangong Yuan accept this?

Countless forces of the Great Dao flowed throughout the entire space the moment one stepped into this territory.

She could feel that the sword intent within her had broken through once again.

This is the domineering nature of the Enlightenment Tree.

The other nine trees beside her also caught Nangong Yuan's attention. Since they came from the same place as the Enlightenment Tree, they were clearly no less in quality than the other tree.

"Miss Nangong..."

Before Nangong Yuan could react, she heard a deep voice behind her.

He subconsciously turned around and saw a man carrying a sword box on his back and holding a wine gourd in his hand, looking him over.

"I am Li Chungang."

"The sect leader asked me to show you around."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yuan bowed and said:

"Then I'll have to trouble Elder Li."

You're too kind.

"Anything the sect leader entrusts is of paramount importance."

Li Chungang put down the wine gourd in his hand, a smile appeared on his face, and then he turned and walked towards the direction of the spirit hall.

Nangong Yuan's gaze remained fixed on Li Chungang's back.

After only a brief glance, a look of shock flashed through his mind once again.

She realized that she couldn't even see through the Misty Sect elder in front of her.

Given my current cultivation level, there's only one possibility that the other party could do this.

A Celestial Lord at the peak, far above himself?

Thinking of this, Nangong Yuan couldn't help but shake her head. How could a mere guide elder in the sect possess such strength?

Doesn't that mean that the man's cultivation level is likely above that of an Immortal King?

If her guess was true, Nangong Yuan dared not imagine how easy her future path would be.

No wonder that despite the Misty Sect's profound foundation, its reputation has never been heard of throughout the entire Azure Profound Continent.

Hidden sects are indeed terrifying!

Isn't the status of this maidservant more appealing than that of the head of the Red Phoenix Pavilion?

Soon the two entered the Spirit Hall, where the concentration of spiritual energy was even higher than in other parts of the Misty Sect.

Before Nangong Yuan could ask about the situation...

A dragon's roar resounded throughout the entire Misty Sect.

"Dragon race?"

Seeing Nangong Yuan standing there in a daze, Li Chungang explained:

“Miss Nangong, there is no need to worry.”

"This is the sect leader's mount, and can also be considered the sect's guardian beast."

"He usually just watches the door and such; he wouldn't do anything malicious."

The words had barely left his mouth.

Nangong Yuan felt that her perception had been reshaped.

Are dragons mounts?

Is he a gatekeeper within the Misty Sect?

No power on the entire continent is unaware of how arrogant the dragon race is.

I'd rather die standing than live in humiliation.

Most importantly, forcibly capturing members of the dragon race, regardless of their bloodline, would amount to directly waging war against the dragons.

Even a Celestial Emperor wouldn't do!

Nangong Yuan was completely baffled as to where Xu Chengyu got so many methods to accomplish these things.
