Guan Yue immediately looked towards the Disciple. The middle-aged man in a yellow Long Robe appeared very elegant, with a serious yet solemn expression, exuding the demeanor of a teacher. At first glance, he resembled a teacher, but his demeanor was very steady, as if he possessed an unwavering Willpower to achieve his goals.
An unkempt ordinary Disciple was inconspicuous among the crowd. Guan Yue could tell at a glance that this person must be the Regretless Sage.
Guan Yue promptly instructed Naijia to continue searching for the Disciples protecting the Regretless Sage. Guan Yue and Gao Yuxin were also looking for the Disciples guarding the Regretless Sage.
Indeed, there were three Disciples protecting the Regretless Sage. The Regretless Sage himself was at the Eternal Realm Initial Stage, while one of his protectors was a High-Quality Disciple of the Eternal Realm, and the other two were Pinnacle of the Marvelous Realm Disciples. It seemed that the Dawson Empire placed great importance on him. This level of protection even surpassed that of the Southern Source Empire's royal family.
After confirming the protective personnel of the Regretless Sage, Guan Yue requested Naijia to continue discovering where the Regretless Sage currently resided, his permanent residence, and information about his relatives, children, and disciples, etc.
Meanwhile, Guan Yue and Gao Yuxin focused on researching how to enter Lahu Great Sage's Tomb. The false tomb had been thoroughly ransacked by earlier Disciples, leaving everything inside completely stripped bare, so most later visitors just wandered around before leaving. Only the Regretless Sage seemed to have received some information and continued to linger in the tomb without leaving.
Guan Yue understood that this indicated that the Regretless Sage had not yet found Lat's Hand. He was convinced that Lat's Hand was within the tomb; since it had not appeared, he refused to leave this place.
This showed that the Regretless Sage was a very persistent person. Fire Red Girl, Hu Hui and Little Red Fish were indeed fortunate to be his disciples. This made Guan Yue think of his own master, Futian Shangren. He too was a very persistent person, but now Guan Yue truly could not understand what role his master played in dealings with the Vast Empire. Did he really intend to sell out his country for glory? Although Guan Yue did not believe it, he felt some doubt because he had seen certain facts within the formation.
Shaking off these fantasies, Guan Yue continued searching for a path into Lahu Great Sage's Tomb.
Suddenly, Gao Yuxin shouted: "Brother Guan, look! There’s a small path over here! There’s a hidden passage over there in the shadows that leads directly beneath this tomb. What do you think? Am I amazing or what?"
Guan Yue carefully followed Gao Yuxin's direction and indeed saw a very narrow hidden passage leading directly to the center of the tomb from afar. He felt immense joy in his heart.
In the end, he and Gao Yuxin agreed that entering Lahu Great Sage's Tomb through this hidden passage was the best route.
The three individuals quickly moved, following the direction of a small hidden passage, discreetly arriving at a location far from the Lahu Great Sage's Tomb. Among a pile of rubble, they found a small stone door that could only accommodate one person at a time. This door was locked by an ancient formation, but fortunately, Guan Yue had sufficient knowledge of formations, so he immediately set to work dismantling the lock on this location.
After Guan Yue broke the formation on the small door, the three entered in single file.
At the moment they entered this small passage, it triggered the activation of restrictions, causing all hidden weapons within the Lahu Great Sage's Tomb to be deployed. With loud crashes, screams of pain from the Disciples echoed everywhere, and explosions rang out. Traps, horse traps, and rolling stone fields began to take effect; many attacks descended from above, coming from all directions and overwhelming the Disciples who had no means to defend themselves or find shelter.
Even Guan Yue and his companions felt the ground shaking within the hidden passage.
The Disciples were dodging everywhere; the entire Lahu Great Sage's tomb had turned into a slaughterhouse. Thousands of Disciples who entered the Lahu Great Sage's Tomb vanished in that very short period, and accidents continued to occur. One moment there was ground collapse here, another moment there was a landslide, then a hall would cave in, followed by a sudden volley of arrows from an unknown source. There was also pervasive poison gas that caused even more Disciples to perish instantly.
Many powerful individuals were harmed by the poison gas that permeated the air while they were surveying from above.
What had been a peaceful and carefree situation suddenly shifted dramatically, leaving Regretless Sage puzzled. With his wisdom, he could preliminarily deduce that someone had truly gained the recognition of Lahu Great Sage, which led to this massacre. Remaining here was now extremely dangerous, so Regretless Sage decided to retreat immediately from this perilous place.
Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia closely followed Guan Yue. After about an hour of travel, they finally entered the true burial site of Lahu Great Sage. They encountered no obstacles along the way and proceeded smoothly, which left Guan Yue feeling somewhat incredulous.
Upon entering the true burial site of Lahu Great Sage, they found it simply arranged yet very clean. Guan Yue knew everything here was made of granite and was very sturdy.
In the center of the burial site stood a solemn platform that held Lahu Great Sage's coffin. The coffin was made of redwood and remained well-preserved. The entire coffin occasionally emitted a faint fragrance of redwood.
The three approached Lahu Great Sage's coffin; Guan Yue bowed sincerely in respect. Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia followed suit, bowing together with Guan Yue to pay their respects to Lahu Great Sage.
At that moment, an ancient voice suddenly echoed in the dim hall. Guan Yue immediately recalled that an ancient voice had also appeared in Dansen Ruda's tomb. He now understood that it was a remnant of their Divine Sense.
The aged voice spoke to the three of them: "Children, all four of you are fated to be with me. You can all be considered my disciples." Guan Yue realized that the old man had already seen Gao Yuxin, but Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia showed confusion on their faces: Where did the fourth person come from? Aren't there only three of us?
Gao Yuxin quickly bowed to the old man and said, "Master, I pay my respects."
Guan Yue also hurriedly knelt down to pay his respects, and Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia immediately followed suit, kneeling down to perform the same gesture. They bowed three times and knocked their heads nine times, without missing a beat.
The aged voice sounded again: "Good. Very good, my disciples. From today onward, the four of you will be my direct disciples of the Lahong Great Sage. Guan Yue will be the eldest disciple, Huangfu Jiayin will be the second disciple, Naijia will be the third disciple, and as for you, Gao Yuxin, although you possess the highest wisdom, you took the longest to take human form. You shall humbly become my fourth disciple."
The three expressed their gratitude repeatedly.
"Old Man" continued: "My true nature is Zhang, and my name is Zhang Wujue. I grew up in poverty and had no particular talents. Fortunately, I accidentally obtained a treasure that opened my Willpower greatly. This led to a firm belief in myself, and through relentless effort, I finally achieved something. When I ascended to another realm, I left my previous self here to seek those fated to inherit my life's teachings.
In my legacy, Huangfu Jiayin will gain the most because her situation is most suitable for inheriting my mantle. Naijia will receive the most refined teachings; she already possesses Consciousness probing techniques and will surely achieve great success with further cultivation. Guan Yue, your situation is more complex; you must gather the Ten Great Children of Heaven and Earth before you can achieve anything significant. It will be difficult. As for Gao Yuxin, once you reach adulthood, you must diligently study the legacy left for you by Old Man; do not slack off."
The four quickly agreed. Gao Yuxin was especially excited; she would finally have access to genuine cultivation techniques tailored just for her.
Zhang Wujue paused for a moment and said to Guan Yue: "Release the Dapeng from your pagoda; it is also fated with Old Man. Today I will grant it some fortune. It can assist you in the future."
This ancient figure could even see the Ninth-Order Spirit Beast within Sky Peak Tower? Startled, Guan Yue hurriedly released Jin Peng from Sky Peak Tower.
Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia looked on in astonishment; how could Guan Yue suddenly release a Ninth-Order Spirit Beast?
The Green Roc was quite perceptive as well; it immediately bowed its head in respect to Zhang Wujue, performing a grand gesture of discipleship that pleased the old man greatly.
He said to Jin Peng, "In that case, Old Man will make you the fifth disciple of Old Man. Once you take on human form, you will be called Jin Xi. However, you must follow Guan Yue for your entire life and not lose your composure. I will help you break through to the Divine Realm now."
Jin Peng was overjoyed and repeatedly expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Master. I will definitely follow Senior Brother Guan Yue and will always look to him for guidance. I will not act recklessly."
Zhang Wujue smiled at Guan Yue and said, "Although Jin Xi is female, she has a wild nature. You need to impose more restrictions on her."
Guan Yue nodded in agreement.
Zhang Wujue had Jin Xi stand properly and began tapping her head at the Heaven and Earth Furnace. In that instant, Jin Xi broke through to the Divine Realm. As the light of becoming a divine beast began to flicker, Zhang Wujue shouted, "Transform."
Suddenly, a powerful force filled the hall, directed specifically at Jin Xi. Under this force's influence, a majestic Green Roc successfully transformed into a young girl. The girl appeared to be around twelve years old, about one meter fifty tall, with a very curvy figure, even more so than Huangfu Jiayin and Naijia, comparable to Sister He Bi. Her large eyes were very bright, and her features were exquisite and alluring. Guan Yue was also watching Jin Peng's transformation closely. She looked much better than when she had no expression in the past.
Zhang Wujue looked at the newly transformed Jin Xi and tears unexpectedly flowed from his eyes. He murmured to himself, "That's right; my beloved wife looked just like this. This is how she appeared when she was young. Unfortunately, I spent too little time with her."
Jin Xi didn't know how to respond to this and felt her face turn red. Guan Yue spoke up, "Master need not worry; the spirit of our beloved teacher will surely understand your feelings."
Zhang Wujue sighed, "It's been too long; it has been over ten thousand years. If I had taught her cultivation earlier, she could have stayed by my side all this time."
Zhang Wujue fell into deep contemplation, while Guan Yue and the others dared not speak, quietly standing there to feel their master's emotional state.
Only Naijia had a slight smile at the corners of her mouth because she sensed that this master had developed thoughts of wanting to get close to Jin Xi.
