Chapter 197 - 197 The Two Faces of the Divine Gate’s Disciples
Countless sects had sent missions to the Divine Gate to request help. No matter which mission it was or which Divine Gate disciple they met, they had all met disciples who were kind and powerful.
To everyone’s knowledge, the Divine Gate was even more sacred than the wavering light sacred ground!
After all, even the powerful Yao Guang Holy Land didn’t have as many cultivators as the Divine Gate. It was also impossible for every cultivator to be so kind!
Cultivation techniques were also divided into different grades, let alone the seven emotions and six desires of humans.
Therefore, since ancient times, everyone had seen the unchanging aftermath of the disciples of the Divine Gate and no one had the heart to compare. All that was left was envy.
“I’m the sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect. I welcome all disciples of the Divine Gate to come and help.” The sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect came forward. In front of him, hundreds of disciples of the Divine Gate lined up slowly. There were no disputes and they were extremely harmonious and modest.
In front of the disciples of the Divine Gate, there was an older disciple. He greeted the sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect and saluted with cupped fists.
This disciple was only in the foundation establishment stage, but he was neither humble nor arrogant. He didn’t lose his manners even in front of the nascent soul stage sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect.
“Young talents, no. These are heaven’s favorites! Every disciple who comes out of the Divine Gate is qualified to be a direct disciple of the Zhen Xin Sect!” The sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect thought. But he could only shake his head.
After all, even with his cultivation, he was only an ordinary inner sect disciple in the Divine Gate.
“Greetings, sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect. There are 613 Divine Gate disciples. Except for one person who arrived early, the other 612 disciples are all here. We will definitely be able to help the Zhen Xin Sect defend the Divine Gate.” The leader of the disciples of the Divine Gate carried a huge saber on his back as he spoke.
“I wonder if the sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect has seen the disciple of the Divine Gate who arrived early. When the beast tide ends, the outside world will be extremely dangerous except for the Zhen Xin Sect that we are guarding together. If you know the whereabouts of that disciple, please let me know.” The disciple with the large saber said.
The sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect was stunned. The disciple of the Divine Gate who arrived early? He suddenly recalled that terrifying disciple of his who had an incarnation stage dragon behind him.
The sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect shook his head. How was that possible? One had to know that the mission this time could only get the Divine Gate to send foundation establishment cultivators at most.
How could a foundation establishment cultivator have an incarnation stage mount? It wasn’t like he was some heaven’s favorite who needed special protection.
“Other than the incarnation stage demonic beast’s aura that appeared outside the Zhen Xin Sect on the first day, I have not seen any other disciples of the Divine Gate. However, perhaps because of the incarnation stage demonic beast’s aura, the Zhen Xin Sect hasn’t been attacked by any demonic beasts in recent days.” The head of the Zhen Xin Sect said after some thought.
“That disciple whose location is unknown might be one of the missing disciples. I haven’t found him yet.” The disciple with the large saber said. The rest of the disciples of the Divine Gate came to a realization after hearing the words of the disciple with the large saber.
“A demonic beast at the incarnation stage.” The disciple with the large saber pondered over his words. Then, he cupped his fists at the sect leader of the Zhen Xin Sect and returned to the disciples of the Divine Gate.
“That disciple whose location is unknown might be one of the missing disciples. I haven’t found him yet.” The disciple with the large saber said. The rest of the disciples of the Divine Gate came to a realization after hearing the words of the disciple with the large saber. They finally understood why some disciples of the Divine Gate would travel alone.
“Other than the missing disciple who might still be lost, I have good news and bad news.” The disciple with the large saber extended his finger and said.
“The good news is that we might not have to fight with demonic beasts in the next few days. We have to protect the Zhen Xin Sect with our lives.” After the disciple with the large saber finished speaking, the eyes of all the disciples of the Divine Gate lit up.
“The bad news is that the aura of an incarnation stage demonic beast appeared outside the Zhen Xin Sect. If this is true, then we might have to sacrifice our lives to save the Zhen Xin Sect until they all escape from the incarnation stage demonic beasts.” The disciple with the large saber said.
The disciples of the Divine Gate listened quietly. They nodded slowly and had no objections.
“Alright, then let’s let the demonic beasts go into hibernation today. It took us three and a half days to get here. During the time we are in the Zhen Xin Sect, we will let the demonic beasts go into hibernation. Otherwise, we might not even have any demonic beasts when we return.
“Finally, I hope we can all survive.”
All the disciples of the Divine Gate nodded silently after the disciple with the large saber finished speaking. They walked to the side of their demonic beast mounts and used the token to scan the demonic beast.
All the demonic beasts emitted a faint golden light, and then a small red dot appeared on the token.
“Buzz!” Following the roar of a griffin, all the demonic beast mounts soared into the sky. They would only return from above the clouds the next time the disciples of the Divine Gate summoned them.
During this period of time, all the disciples of the Divine Gate would stay in the Zhen Xin Sect until they helped the Zhen Xin Sect survive the demonic beast tide.
“Roar!” It was as tall as a small mountain, and its body was covered with hard green skin that was impervious to swords. At this moment, the mountain-like rhinoceros was charging at Zhou Yun with bloodshot eyes. The rhinoceros horn on its head glowed faintly.
Zhou Yun carefully looked at the rhinoceros in front of him. He carefully activated his comprehensive intent, and a whirlwind appeared under his feet. He dodged the rhinoceros’ attack like a ghost.
This was an adult Yueshan rhinoceros!
“Clang!” Zhou Yun felt a sharp pain in his wrist! When he had brushed past the Yueshan rhinoceros, the Fire Dragon Sword had struck the rhinoceros’ horn. He had actually suffered a backlash and almost lost his grip on the Fire Dragon Sword!
“As expected, golden core demonic beasts are stronger than foundation establishment demonic beasts!” Zhou Yun licked his lips. Even if it was him now, if he was hit by that rhinoceros horn, he would probably die here!
“Comprehensive intent!” Zhou Yun’s comprehensive intent slowly covered his entire body. Not only was it a collection of various intents, but it was also even connected to a portion of the great momentum of heaven and earth around Zhou Yun!
Zhou Yun’s figure was currently drifting erratically, as if he was appearing in multiple places at the same time! Using his footwork, he charged toward the Yueshan rhinoceros!
“Roar!” The Yueshan rhinoceros roared, and its body actually grew even bigger!
The Yueshan rhinoceros, which was originally the size of a small mountain, had now become so huge that it covered the entire sky. Zhou Yun’s body only reached the height of the giant rhinoceros’ toenail!
“Hey, hey! This isn’t something that a late-stage golden core demonic beast can comprehend!” Zhou Yun felt his head throb!
Just like how he used the great momentum of heaven and earth to display his body technique, this late-stage golden core demonic beast actually relied on the great momentum of heaven and earth to forcibly expand its body by one size!
“Roar!” The Yueshan rhinoceros seemed to have transformed into a real mountain as it roared at Zhou Yun.
“It seems that I can only use this move. I didn’t expect that I would be forced to use this move.” Zhou Yun held the Fire Dragon Sword in his hand, his eyes cold.
