c1691: 868: Alarm Raised (Part 3)

The Taixu Sect Master felt slightly relieved in his heart.

Divine Beasts capable of repelling evil.

Partially bloodlined Exotic Beasts can also repel evil spirits.

Bringing this Exotic Beast from the family to Taixu Gate was exactly with this intention.

Mo Hua, this child, has a clever mind and strong Divine Sense, perhaps he also detected the evil-repelling property of this Exotic Beast, thus wanted to borrow this beast to protect that child of the Shangguan family.

As a Disciple, he mustered the courage to borrow something from the Sect Leader with the aim of protecting others.

Mo Hua, this child, indeed has a good disposition...

Feeling relieved, the Taixu Sect Master decided not to pursue the matter further.

However, at this time in Taixu Gate, the Divine Thought of the Ancestor from the Back Hill unexpectedly emerged, prompting him to feel that these two matters might be somewhat related.

But after pondering thoroughly, the Taixu Sect Master shook his head again.

What kind of astonishing act could a small Foundation Establishment Disciple achieve to provoke the Ancestor from the Back Hill?

Besides, this was no ordinary Ancestor...

If this Ancestor came forth, the entire Qian Learning State Boundary would tremble.

Divine Thought transformed into the sword achieved profound mastery; it was a Heaven Void, and there were hardly any who dared face his sword.

Upon this thought, the Taixu Sect Master felt even heavier in his heart, prompting him to speed up his movement technique to visit Elder Master Xun at the Elder’s Residence.

But as soon as he set foot inside, he discovered that virtually all Feather Transformation elders of note within Taixu Gate were present.

Everyone exchanged greetings, explaining their intentions.

Elder Master Xun furrowed his brow and said, "Do not worry, the Seal is intact, Senior Brother should be fine. I’ll check the Back Hill, you stay here, do not cause a fuss."

"Gentleman, it might be..." everyone was worried.

Elder Master Xun was uneasy, yet he waved his hand, saying, "No worries."

With that, he swipes his fingers through thin air, tearing a rift in the void, entering the Forbidden Land of the Back Hill through it.

Upon arrival at the Forbidden Land, stepping into the Sword Tomb, Elder Master Xun saw the long-bearded elder, immediately assuming a vigilant demeanor as he examined that solitary, fierce, yet fragmented sword-like forlorn silhouette.

After a moment, Elder Master Xun sighed and relaxed as he slowly began to speak:

"Senior Brother..."

The long-bearded elder said, "Why have you come?"

With some helplessness, Elder Master Xun said, "Senior Brother, haven’t I advised you, do not use your Divine Sense casually..."

The long-bearded elder’s gaze deepened.

He initially intended to conclude matters swiftly without restraining his Divine Thought Power, believing that a single sweep over Taixu Mountain would reveal the scheming miscreant’s tracks.

Unexpectedly, the sweep yielded nothing.

The long-bearded elder surmised that the one causing "chaos" in secret had likely employed some kind of formation to conceal their aura and shielded their presence from Divine Sense.

This formation was extremely ingenious.

He hadn’t anticipated that such a quick scan would allow him to be deceived.

However, he was in Heaven Void, with powerful Divine Thought; these means couldn’t fool him. He needed only to unrestrainedly scan once more, to definitely unearth flaws and seize the mastermind.

Yet, just as he contemplated using Divine Sense to search Taixu Mountain again, someone came to him.

Elder Master Xun passionately advised:

"Senior Brother, you clearly know your own condition. Your Divine Soul...cannot endure any more setbacks. Your Divine Sense must not be used carelessly again."

"Moreover, your Divine Thought was cultivated with the Divine Thought into Sword True Technique; once things go awry, and the Sword Intent loses control, the consequences are unimaginable."

The long-bearded elder was silent.

Elder Master Xun suddenly realized something, frowning as he asked:

"Senior Brother, is it... has there been some upheaval within the Sect?"

Understanding his Senior Brother, if not for some change within the Sect or an emergency situation, he would never so rashly release his Divine Sense.

The long-bearded elder’s gaze slightly narrowed, intending to speak, though ultimately held back.

His nature was proud and his temper stubborn, preferring not to rely on others for his issues.

Moreover, he hadn’t even deciphered the intricacies involved himself.

And his junior, with a head of white hair, had already labored enough for the Sect.

The long-bearded elder merely said, indifferently, "Nothing..."

And then closed his eyes, saying nothing further.

Seeing this, Elder Master Xun felt somewhat helpless, but fortunately, his Senior Brother was unharmed, and the Sword Tomb appeared normal.

Elder Master Xun sighed in relief, then tore open the void again, leaving using the Void Escape Skill.

Upon returning to the Elder’s Residence, Elder Master Xun informed everyone, "No worries, perhaps Senior Brother was tired, momentarily careless, and couldn’t restrain his Divine Sense, it’s no big issue..."
