“The Cloud-Splitting Light Array became famous after that battle, and even the sect protecting arrays of the major forces of the two paths are far behind. It enjoys a good reputation as You Prefecture’s number one.”
“Mm.”
Lin Xuan nodded with a thoughtful look on his face. He didn’t expect the relatively unknown Heavenly Vision Sect to have such an amazing thing. It seemed that none of these sects with more than a thousand years of history were easy to deal with. They must all have some deep foundation.
While the two were chatting, the thick fog surged more and more intensely, and then a strange beam of light burst out of it, and the sound of thunder was faintly heard.
All the cultivators present were shocked and raised their hands to cover their eyes.
The strange light came suddenly, but it also disappeared very quickly. When everyone put their hands down, their faces could not help but show a surprised expression.
The thick fog disappeared without a trace and was replaced by white clouds and blossoming flowers. There was also faint and melodious music coming from around them as if they were in a fairyland.
However, unlike those cultivators who were looking around in surprise, Lin Xuan only took a look and his pupils dilated slightly.
Although he had not studied the art of arrays, he used the array flag and plate many times. He had a certain understanding of this phenomenon after secretly releasing his Spiritual Sense. The nearby Spiritual Qi became very strange. Although it looked like a fairyland on the surface, in fact, the other party had opened the Cloud-Splitting Light Array.
He believed that if someone harbored malicious intentions, they would be immediately killed by the array.
It was ridiculous that no one knew about it, but instead, admiring the beautiful scenery in front of them. They shook their heads and looked very happy.
And so did Tian Xiaojian!
Unfortunately, this was only his first impression, and soon Lin Xuan discovered that although Tian Xiaojian had a big smile on his face, in the depths of his eyes, there was faint light flashing, and the hands that were clasping the fan were also somewhat pale white.
Lin Xuan naturally buried it in his heart, but on the surface, he still acted as if nothing happened.
After a while, a middle-aged man in his early forties finally came out of the sea of clouds, and the Immortal Hotel’s Innkeeper went up and talked to him. Then left quietly.
“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting. I’m Lu Yu, a steward of this sect. Welcome to Heavenly Vision Mountain. Please follow me, but before that, please show me your jade card first.”
The jade card that Lu Yu was talking about, was the token that the cultivators had obtained when they stayed at the Immortal Hotel. They all had the owner’s spiritual mark on them to prevent the unrelated people from entering Heavenly Vision Mountain.
After the inspection, a smile appeared on Lu Yu’s face, “From now on, you are the distinguished guests of our sect. Please keep up, don’t walk around randomly. Otherwise, it will trigger the array. I apologize for the inconvenience.”
Well of course! He said it euphemistically, but the cultivator presents were no fools, and all felt a chill in their hearts. It turned out that this beautiful sea of clouds was a murderous array. Everybody’s expression immediately became much more serious. They hurriedly followed behind Lu Yu, afraid of taking a wrong step.
After walking in the sea of clouds for ten minutes, their eyes suddenly captured a bright light. Suddenly, a huge valley came into view, and a stone monument stood at the entrance of the valley.
There are three large characters engraved on it “Heavenly Vision Mountain” which shone with an imposing golden light.
“Haha, you’ve now entered the inner mountains of our sect. This valley is a temporary market. If you need something, you could go in and exchange for it yourself. And if you want to leave, as long as you return to the entrance of the valley again, there will naturally be disciples to send off all distinguished guests, The Trade Fair is for a total of three days, there are also inns in the market. But you should be careful not to leave the range of the valley and climb the mountain. There are many restrictions, if any outsiders try to break in, they will be regarded as enemies. So be careful.”
Lu Yu’s expression was kind, but when it came to the last few words, his voice suddenly turned harsh and contained a hint of threat.
The cultivator present naturally promised. With their cultivation base, no one was willing to cause trouble.
Lin Xuan’s expression was indifferent, and he didn’t say a word, but in his heart, he was still confused about something. Since this sect was not a small or weak one, and it was also rich in many herbs that were extinct in the outside world, then the trade fair held every ten years should have a great impact. But how come there were only cultivators in the Foundation Establishment and Spirit Condensation Stage? Were those powerful masters not interested?
“Brother Lin Xuan, what are you thinking about?”
Tian Xiaojian’s voice was heard from the side. Lin Xuan came back to his senses and smiled carelessly, “I’m just wondering why there are no cultivators in the Core Formation Stage?”
“Haha, of course there are, but those experts have a high status and won’t enter the mountain with us. Eh, aren’t they already here?” Tian Xiaojian suddenly turned his head to the side and cried out in surprise.
Lin Xuan was startled. Following his gaze, a huge crane flew out from the other side of the sea of clouds.
Although it was called a crane, this bird was ridiculously huge. Its wings alone were more than ten meters wide. With a light flap, the air current blew like a storm.
On its back stood several figures, both men and women, although they looked very very strange, each one of them had an imposing aura.
Even from a distance, you could feel the huge spiritual pressure. They were obviously cultivators in the Core Formation Stage!
The cultivators who were on the same boat as Lin Xuan, all had envious and jealous expressions on their faces.
“Neither the Righteous Path nor the Demonic Path sent anyone here?”
Seeing this scene, Lin Xuan’s face flashed with a hint of mockery. He didn’t know whether It was to avoid suspicion, or there was another conspiracy. But the Big Three seemed to have made an agreement with the Extreme Demon Cave, and actually didn’t send any disciples here.
On the surface, they seem to have chosen not to get involved, but in fact, it was not necessarily a blessing!
On the other hand, the crane did not stop at the valley’s entrance and flew directly into it. In midair, there was a huge, floating VIP Pavilion, which was specially prepared for the cultivators above the Foundation Establishment Stage.
