Chapter 160: Azure Cloud Pavilion Twelve Towers
Chapter 160: Azure Cloud Pavilion Twelve Towers
[Year 84: Disciples of the Azure Cloud Pavilion started disappearing one after another. Sensing something amiss, the Azure Cloud Pavilion discovered three disciples buried alive on the back mountain. The truth was revealed. The Pavilion Master decided to punish Li Tianming publicly, ordering him to recite scriptures every day, hoping to subtly influence him towards good.]
[Your descendant, Li Tianming, gained the trait: The Pretender.]
[Half a year of scriptures failed to move his twisted heart. He memorized the scriptures and obeyed the Pavilion Master's teachings, but his inner thoughts were different. His resolve grew stronger, and his mind was further tempered.]
"You..."
Li Wei was speechless. He facepalmed, lamenting that he had never encountered such a psychopath in his entire life. Then he murmured, "Great, now with all this moral guidance, he's become even more twisted. His desire to kill has only grown stronger."
He had initially thought that being around Li Tianyi would make him better. And it seemed to be working. After returning to the Li family, Li Tianming hadn't done anything twisted for months. He even became an undercover agent for the family.
But now... this descendant, whose talent far surpassed Li Tianyi's, was utterly ruined.
Ignoring Li Tianming, Li Wei began to shift his perspective, observing various locations within the Azure Cloud Pavilion. As expected of a sect with a long and established heritage, it had numerous disciples and was filled with secret realms for cultivation and places where legacies were passed down.
Thanks to Li Tianming's explorations, Li Wei, as the ancestor, could also access the information Li Tianming had gathered.
[Azure Cloud Pavilion Twelve Towers]
[This is where the Nascent Soul and Golden Core elders of the Azure Cloud Pavilion throughout history have passed down their legacies. Every generation of elders leaves their inheritance here to prevent the decline of the Azure Cloud Pavilion.]
"Could such a sect truly lack a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
Li Wei narrowed his eyes. All the information the Li family had gathered so far indicated that the Azure Cloud Pavilion only had Golden Core elders. However, they had a lineage spanning countless millennia. According to current intelligence, including the Sect Master, the Azure Cloud Pavilion had a total of seven Golden Core cultivators.
This number of Golden Core cultivators was almost on par with the Skyveil Sect and the Black Tortoise Sect.
The more he investigated the Azure Cloud Pavilion, the more Li Wei sensed its hidden depths. Even if he were to think with his backside, he could tell that the Azure Cloud Pavilion was concealing its true strength.
Just as he was pondering,
"Bang!"
A disciple of the Azure Cloud Pavilion, dressed in a cloud-patterned Daoist robe and riding a crane, hurriedly descended from the sky into the sect. His face was filled with terror, and he seemingly lost control of the crane, causing both him and the crane to tumble upon landing.
The disciple, ignoring the crane's disgruntled squawks, stumbled and rushed straight towards the main hall.
"Pavilion Master, Elders! It's... it's terrible!"
"At the foot of Azure Cloud Mountain... there's a great terror!!!"
At this moment, within the main hall of the Azure Cloud Pavilion, on the back mountain, in the Twelve Pavilion Suppressing Towers, and even beneath the ground, cultivators opened their eyes.
They all heard the disciple's terrified cries, and at the same time, they sensed the dense blood energy rising from the foot of Azure Cloud Mountain!
Yu Xian, the Pavilion Master of the Azure Cloud Pavilion, sat upon a lotus platform, his eyes gleaming with insight. He performed a divination, then looked coldly at the various patterns on the hall's ceiling, finally letting out a long sigh. "A great calamity is approaching. How did it come to this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, within the Twelve Towers, the stunningly beautiful woman who was meditating opposite Elder Qiuye opened her eyes. In an instant, her eyes turned red, and she leaped to her feet. Her phoenix manifestation emerged, shattering the top of the tower as she soared out.
She sensed it—an aura connected by blood, whether dense or faint, all converging outside the Azure Cloud Pavilion.
And also...
Deathly energy!
At the center of the Azure Cloud Pavilion, Li Tianming, who was clinging to the iron bars and feigning misery, slowly raised his head and looked at the fiery figure rushing out in a panic. He raised an eyebrow, also sensing the blood energy rising from the foot of Azure Cloud Mountain. That blood energy washed over him, carrying an extremely sweet fragrance.
"Tsk tsk, that must be the work of Fourth Grandaunt. As expected of the person I revere as a god."
