In the ruin, there were hardly any young cultivators left.
Most of the cultivators from various major sects had died in that cemetery. Those who had managed to leave alive had long departed from these ruin. As for the remaining few cultivators, after sensing the significant changes in the dense fog, they also chose to leave.
They did not have the same good fortune as Yun Jianyue, with their sect senior coming here. Hence, many of them perished within the ruin.
The white mist was a deadly weapon, infiltrating the bodies of cultivators was its means of killing. Previously, it was a slow process. But now, with the fog growing denser, the white mist became increasingly formidable as well.
Cultivators could weigh what was important and naturally chose to leave.
Although Yun Jianyue had ventured deep into it, with the assistance of the middle-aged daoist’s talisman, he actually left faster than many others. When he emerged from the white mist, countless gazes fell upon him.
Seeing the somewhat pale face of this daoist genius, the cultivators could not help but think that even someone like him found it extremely challenging to endure in the white mist.
However, soon, Distant Wanderer looked at Yun Jianyue and lamented, “Congratulations, young friend, on taking another step further.”
Upon hearing this, Yun Jianyue quickly returned the gesture. Although he had reached the same level as Distant Wanderer after stepping into the Great Beyond Realm, there was still a difference in their seniority, so he maintained proper etiquette.
As Distant Wanderer spoke up, everyone turned their attention to Yun Jianyue. Soon, words of praise began sounding out among the crowd.
This daoist, who was one of the Twin Pillars of Daoism, had already reached the pinnacle of the Bitter Sea Realm Realm before. Countless cultivators had aspired to have Yun Jianyue join their sects and become their sect’s cultivator, but they did not dare to snatch a young disciple of the Infatuation Daoist Temple, nor would they snatch.
Now, with Yun Jianyue taking another step forward, it meant they were not just vying for him.
This meant that the Infatuation Daoist Temple had another figure capable of bearing the Infatuation Daoist Temple’s future in this generation.
For a sect to thrive and endure, it was essential to have a deep foundation. Within the sect, there must be a supreme powerhouse capable of maintaining the current status quo, as well as a group of formidable powerhouses. This would ensure the sect’s stability. Young cultivators, although valuable, were like the icing on the cake. To achieve long-lasting greatness, the sect must have a formidable expert who could succeed the current powerhouse before their demise. A true genius did not need the prefix ‘young’. They must be able to take over the sect before the supreme powerhouse passed on.
Upon hearing these unexpected praises, Yun Jianyue furrowed his brows.
He remained silent for a moment before walking toward the location where the Infatuation Daoist Temple’s cultivators were gathered.
Daoist Ning Gui had an appreciative expression as he looked at Yun Jianyue. He took the initiative to say, “When you return, the Temple Master will be very pleased.”
Yun Jianyue glanced around and asked in a low voice, “But what exactly happened inside?”
Daoist Ning Gui was taken aback. The cultivators who had come out earlier had already talked about what happened inside. But even if it was him, he was also uncertain about what happened inside.
“The white mist has become thicker, perhaps due to a certain cycle or the presence of a precious treasure. However, for youngsters like you, it’s not very friendly,” Daoist Ning Gui shook his head slightly and said softly, “You don’t need to worry too much. The situation inside will become clear.”
“Martial Uncle has already gone in, does Temple Master know?”
Yun Jianyue turned to Daoist Ning Gui and asked this question.
The whereabouts of big shots should not be inquired by a young disciple like him. But when he saw that middle-aged daoist, Yun Jianyue already vaguely felt that something was amiss, so he still spoke up.
Daoist Ning Gui was stunned and asked doubtfully, “Which daoist master is it?!”
Anyone qualified to be addressed as ‘Chief Enforcer’ by Yun Jianyue could not be an ordinary cultivator. Even within the Infatuation Daoist Temple, he should be a big shot too.
Yun Jianyue said, “Daoist Master Chief Enforcer.”
Upon hearing these four words, Daoist Ning Gui’s expression instantly changed. He seemed almost incredulous as he asked, “It’s Daoist Master Chief Enforcer?!”
He naturally knew what kind of existence the Daoist Master Chief Enforcer was in the Infatuation Daoist Temple. That was an out-and-out big shot. Even during normal times, it was difficult to even catch a glimpse of him within the Infatuation Daoist Temple. He had heard that these kinds of big shots were in closed-seclusion, striving to reach an even higher realm. However, he had not imagined that the Chief Enforcer was not in the Infatuation Daoist Temple at all but had come here from the Infatuation Daoist Temple.
“Why would he be here?!” Checkk new 𝒏ovel ch𝒂pters at nov𝒆lbin(.)com
Daoist Ning Gui looked at Yun Jianyue, feeling rather puzzled.
This kind of prominent figure could trigger countless events with even movement and action.
Yun Jianyue whispered, “I originally thought you should know the reason, but looking at it now, it seems that even within the temple, this might not be known.”
Yun Jianyue had always held a deep respect for that Chief Enforcer, and his question was raised with certain considerations in mind.
Daoist Ning Gui shook his head and said, “I presume that regardless of the circumstances, the Temple Master should be aware of these matters. Forget about the entire Infatuation Daoist Temple, even the major events happening in the world should be within the Temple Master’s gaze.”
It was unclear how many people in the entire Infatuation Daoist Temple greatly admired the Infatuation Daoist Temple’s temple master. Under this extreme admiration, there was even extreme worship and complete trust.
Yun Jianyue said, “I’ll return to the mountain now.”
Daoist Ning Gui was taken aback, then nodded without saying more.
Although he was more senior, he had never imposed any constraints on young geniuses like Yun Jianyue. If they were willing to talk to him nicely, that was already plenty good.
Yun Jianyue suddenly asked, “Is Senior Sister still in seclusion?”
Daoist Ning Gui smiled and replied, “When I left, I heard that she was still in seclusion, but it’s a life-or-death seclusion. Occasionally, she would sit on the edge of the cliff and enjoy the scenery.”
In the world of cultivators, there was often a distinction between life-and-death seclusion and regular seclusion. Life-and-death seclusion implied that the cultivator would not appear in the world under any circumstances until they broke through their realm. Often, life-and-death seclusions were a great ordeal to a cultivator. Even if it was a first-rate genius, they might very likely just die like that.
Yun Jianyue smiled and said, “I’ve surpassed Senior Sister now.”
Daoist Ning Gui nodded. Although Ye Zhihua had always had a slightly higher cultivation level than Yun Jianyue before, it was still limited. Now that Yun Jianyue had obtained a great lucky chance, advancing from the Bitter Sea Realm to the Great Beyond Realm, he was definitely at a higher cultivation realm than that girl.
Reflecting on the young genius’s wild rumors in the temple, Daoist Ning Gui fell silent for a moment, pondering whether having a crush on a girl would affect one’s cultivation.
If he had known about this, when he saw that junior sister back then, he should have expressed his feelings.
Alas, life never had any ‘what-ifs.’
