"You're finally out." Zhuang Yaoqing's face showed no sign of surprise. "If you hadn't come out of seclusion, we would have all thought you had drowned inside."
Jiang Wuyuan concealed his aura, but Zhuge Wangran still keenly sensed it. He smiled and said, "Congratulations. I estimate that you are now only one step away from becoming a Martial Emperor."
Zhuge Wangran spoke with great emotion.
Even a genius like him only broke through to the Martial Emperor realm during his sophomore year.
Jiang Wuyuan is only a freshman in college, and he has already reached this level in just over four months since the start of the semester, which is truly enviable.
For these prodigies, the difference in cultivation level before becoming a Grandmaster is not significant.
With the full support of the four major universities, abundant cultivation resources, and various rare opportunities, reaching the peak of the Martial Emperor realm is not a difficult task.
The real contest actually takes place after the Grandmasters.
Jiang Wuyuan nodded slightly to the two of them: "Thank you. What are your plans after this?"
Zhuang Yaoqing and Zhuge Wangran exchanged a glance: "We plan to split up with you."
“We’ve had a great time with our colleagues lately. But with you around, we’ve really been too comfortable,” Zhuge Wangran said with a smile. “If we need your protection when we come to explore the secret realm, we, as senior students, don’t know where to put our faces.”
Zhuang Yaoqing nodded in agreement: "I still need to go find the elixir, but that would take up too much of your time, so I can go with Zhuge. After all, that's his plan too."
Jiang Wuyuan frowned: "In that case, you don't need to wait for me to come out of seclusion. Just leave me a note."
Waiting for him here for half a year would be a waste of a lot of time.
"I must also thank Brother Jun of the Wuxiang Sect for allowing us to explore the mountains and forests near Jue Tian Pool." Zhuge Wangran cupped his hands to Jun Ruyu. "This time has not been wasted; we have collected quite a few good things."
"Not at all." Jun Ruyu waved her hand with a smile. "This mountain forest was originally unmanaged and teeming with magical beasts. You two fellow Daoists obtained the treasure through your own strength, which is what you deserve."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wuyuan felt relieved.
He really didn't intend to continue searching for treasure in the mountains and wilderness; he wanted to go find the Abyss.
Although the abyss has not yet descended, such beings cannot be born without warning.
It's just a projection, there's no fighting, but he wanted to see it.
However, even just taking a look would be dangerous, and he originally didn't want to take Zhuang Yaoqing with him.
This weakling might not be able to protect the alien race from the abyss.
This arrangement is just right.
So the two groups said their goodbyes and parted ways at Jue Tian Chi.
The flying boat sails far away, the setting sun like blood.
A chilling aura drifted in from the horizon, but no one noticed it at the moment.
