C1 Cryptorchid

Above the strange mist mountain, the clouds were luxuriant and there was a relatively flat stone cliff. The youth, Chen Xiao, was sitting cross-legged on it.

He closed his eyes and his body began to regulate his breathing. The Qi Method in his body continued to fluctuate and circulate. The surrounding Spiritual Energy was also being attracted by his breathing. Carefully, he looked at the Spiritual Energy that formed a strange air current around him.

"Hu!"

It was only until noon when the clouds dissipated. Chen Xiao finally breathed out a mouthful of foul air and stopped cultivating.

As he slowly opened his eyes, Chen Xiao frowned slightly. Today, he had yet to break through a bottleneck. His strength was still stuck at the late stage of Qi Cultivation.

"Hey, Senior Brother Chen Xiao. It's already noon. Shouldn't we return to the sect and eat lunch first?" A lazy voice sounded from behind Chen Xiao. It was another youth about his age.

Chen Xiao turned around and realized that the youth was lying down leisurely under a tree. There was even a blade of grass in his mouth, giving him an indescribable feeling of ease and comfort.

Looking at the youth gently shaking his head, Chen Xiao curiously asked, "Junior Brother Wang Huang, why are you hiding under a tree in such a short time?"

"Senior brother, isn't the sun out? If my delicate skin gets tanned, how can I become the number one beauty in the Hidden Dragon Gate?" Wang Huang tilted his head and spat out the young grass, his eyes filled with innocence.

Chen Xiao sighed helplessly. This was what his junior brother Wang Huang was like. Not only was he lazy in cultivation, he was also rather narcissistic. However, he was not the one who could be angry. This was because the two of them had grown up together, and their relationship was that of a blood brother.

"You! Let's go back to the sect for dinner. If we wait any longer, Master will worry." With a wave of his hand, Chen Xiao was the first to dash in the direction of the Hidden Dragon Gate.

"Yes, I can finally eat. I've been hungry for half a day. Senior Brother, please wait for me." Wang Huang also jumped up, happily shouting as he followed.

The Hidden Dragon Sect was located at the foot of the Mysterious Mist Peak and belonged to a third-rate sect. There were not many disciples in the sect, and most of them were orphans brought back by the sect master.

The moment he entered the sect, Chen Xiao saw his master, Lu Qingyun, waiting for him at the entrance with a smile on his face. He immediately bent down respectfully and performed a Sect Rite.

He had watched Chen Xiao grow up, and knew that Chen Xiao had never slacked off in his cultivation. He had always been diligently completing it, and the other Elders of the Hidden Dragon Sect had always envied him for having such a disciple.

Patting Chen Xiao on the shoulder, Lu Qingyun nodded and said, "Quickly go eat. After you're done eating, come find me together with Wang Huang. I have something very important to tell you."

"Yes, Master." Chen Xiao bowed once again before heading towards the canteen.

"Sigh, Senior Brother Chen Xiao, please wait for me. Running this fast will affect your image." At this moment, Wang Huang finally followed Chen Xiao back to the Hidden Dragon Gate.

After hurriedly bowing to Lu Qingyun, Wang Huang followed closely behind Chen Xiao.

Looking at Chen Xiaoliu's figure that was ignoring him, Wang Huang couldn't help but shake his head. He inwardly sighed at how inattentive his senior brother was towards his image.

After dinner, Chen Xiao brought Wang Huang to Lu Qingyun's residence as promised.

"Master, you asked me and my junior brother to come here. What is the important matter?" Looking at Lu Qingyun, Chen Xiao's eyes were filled with doubt. This was the first time he had encountered such a serious feeling.

"Sigh …" He looked meaningfully at Chen Xiao and Wang Huang, before slowly saying, "A while ago, when the Sect Leader was cultivating, he had the occasional enlightenment, and discovered that the Hidden Dragon Gate is about to face a great calamity. The two of you grew up in this Hidden Dragon Gate, and this is the future of the Hidden Dragon Sect.

Chen Xiao already knew from Lu Qingyun that the Hidden Dragon Sect's Sect Leader had reached the strength of the late Nascent Soul Stage. With such a level of cultivation, he could vaguely feel the mysteries of the world.

However, Chen Xiao had grown up in the Hidden Dragon Gate and had long treated this place as his own home. Now that his sect was going through a calamity but wanted him to leave, there was nothing Chen Xiao could do about it.

"Master, your disciple wants to stay and face the impending disaster together with the Hidden Dragon Gate." Chen Xiao respectfully said, his eyes revealing a look of reluctance.

"If that senior wanted to stay, I wouldn't have left." Wang Huang followed up with an opinion. Although his tone was lazy, his eyes were also unwilling to part with his opinions.

Lu Qingyun looked at his two disciples with reluctance. After all, he had watched the two grow up and live together with them. He already had feelings for them. Moreover, he also knew that his two disciples were very stubborn and would normally not listen to advice when they wanted to persist. If he forced them to leave now, they would probably sneak back.

"Go back and rest first. Consider this matter carefully. The sect's great calamity is not something that you can withstand just by staying behind." Lu Qingyun waved his hand and said helplessly.

"Understood, Master." Chen Xiao nodded slightly and led Wang Huang away in disappointment.

Looking at the two's tender silhouettes, Lu Qingyun mumbled with misty eyes, "You two are still so young. I won't let you guys perish together with the sect."

Late at night, other than the patrolling disciples, the lights in everyone's room had been extinguished. Other than Lu Qingyun's room, there was still light.

"Old friend Qing Yun, why have you called me here so late at night?" Inside the house, an old man dressed in a black and purple robe clasped his hands at Lu Qingyun.

Lu Qingyun also cupped his hands together before slowly saying, "Brother Lian Tong, the reason I called you here this time is mainly because of my two disciples. I want the two of them to join your 30,000-meter sect."

"So that's how it is …" Lian Tong nodded, indicating that he understood the situation.

However, when Lu Qingyun was not paying attention to him, a greedy expression appeared on his amiable face.

With an awkward expression, Lian Tong continued, "Then did your two disciples reach the Aurous Core stage? "If it wasn't for his Aurous Core stage, it would be difficult to deal with him. You should also know that this sect is a large cultivation sect and naturally has much higher requirements for its disciples."

Lu Qingyun was stunned, but he was a bit surprised. Although he knew that the income requirements for the Cultivator's Party was quite high, he did not expect it to be that high. If this was really the case, then his two disciples probably would not have a chance.

"Could it be …" Is there no other way? " Lu Qingyun's mood sank to the bottom as he muttered with disappointment in his eyes.

Looking at all this, Lian Tong secretly rejoiced. He made up his mind to put on a serious facade and thought for a while, then he said hesitantly: "It's not like there's no other way. If old friend Qing Yun is willing to tell me about the secret scriptures and the treasured lands inside the Hidden Dragon Gate, it might be easy for your two disciples to enter the 'Ten Thousand Feet Gate'."

"How is this possible!" Hearing this, Lu Qingyun roared furiously, his face filled with uncontrollable rage.

One had to know that the most important things to a sect were its secret scriptures and its secret cultivation treasure. This was the most important thing to the sect, and if they were to tell even these things to others, then what was the difference between them and a sect's surrender?

"I think it's better if you think about it carefully. In any case, your Hidden Dragon School is only a small, unranked sect. There's nothing worth hiding." Lian Tong pretended to advise him out of good intentions.

"Scram, Lian Tong, you shameless bastard. You actually want to covet our sect's secret scriptures and precious land? Don't even think about it!" Lu Qingyun's heart was filled with grief and indignation because he had misjudged his good friend.

Lian Tong's face immediately darkened. He was a disciple from a large cultivation sect and had never been scolded by a small unrated sect. Of course, he had also been exposed by Lu Qingyun and felt dissatisfied.

"An elder from a small unrated sect actually dares to insult me like this!" When Lu Qingyun wasn't paying attention, Lian Tong flew into a rage.

"Bang!"

A flame ignited in Lian Tong's hand, bringing along a frightening heat as he ruthlessly smacked towards Lu Qingyun. The strength of a late stage Fasting Valley martial artist was instantly displayed.

A green light appeared on Lu Qingyun's body and the flames that were in contact with him instantly extinguished. At the same time, a surging wave of energy also returned back to him.

"Spirit Cultivation stage, you've actually reached the Spirit Cultivation stage!" Lian Tong cried out; his heart was filled with terror.

The failure of the sneak attack that he had originally thought to be foolproof had already shocked Lian Tong. However, the strength that Lu Qingyun had displayed just now had made Lian Tong even more shocked.

He didn't expect that Lu Qingyun, an unranked elder of a small sect, would actually be able to reach the Spirit Cultivating Stage.

There was only a thin line between the Fasting and Spirit Cultivation stages. However, there was a huge difference between this line and the previous one.

His back was instantly drenched in cold sweat, and he quickly retreated without a second thought.

"Do you still want to kill me to keep my mouth shut?" Lu Qingyun roared in anger as he kicked out, throwing another ray of azure light at Lian Tong.

Lian Tong was overwhelmed with shock as his hair suddenly stood on end. He used all of his strength without caring about his life. All kinds of defensive magic treasures were activated by him, and they immediately covered his body with a layer of multicolored light patterns.

However, this attack was unexpectedly not as powerful as he had expected. Just as it hit the protective barrier, it completely disappeared. In an instant, Lian Lian Tong felt like he was being toyed with. He was both embarrassed and angry at the same time.

By now, Lian Tong already knew that he was no match for Lu Qingyun and was even more worried that the Hidden Dragon Sect's Sect Leader would appear at any time. He secretly thought that he could not stay here any longer and retreated a thousand miles.

"Lu Qingyun, just you wait. I will definitely return. When I return, it will be the end of the Hidden Dragon Sect!" Clutching his wounded chest with his free hand, he spoke as if he was swearing something.

When the voice sounded, Lian Lian was already a thousand miles away.
