A dozen or so Saint Realm experts—even in the current Central Court, this would be considered a very powerful force. And the fact that they came together as a group caused even the few Half-Step Great Saint from the Dustless Holy Land to show solemn expressions.
Among the Half-Step Great Saint of the Dustless Holy Land, there was an old woman with a sinister expression. She looked very old and frail, holding a dragon staff. She snorted coldly, slamming the staff heavily on the ground, and said, "An old friend has arrived. Let's go and greet him."
An elderly man with a dark red face standing next to the old woman laughed heartily and said, "These old fellows are quite timely in getting information, but I wonder what their purpose is in coming here this time. Are they going to compete with the Saint Realm expert for the Samsara Bell?"
That joke isn't funny at all!
The old woman glanced at the red-faced Half-Step Great Saint, shook her head, and said, "It's just a rumor. How could the Samsara Bell appear in a place like this? Perhaps a Saint Realm expert at the pinnacle just happened to pass by and had some insights."
Beside the red-faced, Half-Step Great Saint, a middle-aged man said, "It shouldn't be. When I saw you, Senior, you should have already been at the summit for quite some time."
"So, that Saint Realm expert intentionally stayed here?" A look of surprise flashed across the old woman's face as she looked back at the summit, lost in thought.
No one knew what anyone present was thinking. Yang Zhen and Hua Youyue were inconspicuous in the crowd, so Yang Zhen had no intention of leaving.
What a joke! Such a grand spectacle, and you're just going to leave like this? Even if you find the sect ruins mentioned by the Nine Dragons Great Saint, it will still take away a lot of the fun. Yang Zhen will not leave just like that.
When Xue Shou and his group arrived at this place, the sun was about to set. The gray sky and earth were filled with a purple qi, as if the sky was full of purple clouds, which made the whole earth and the mountain peaks look purple-red.
"You old folks, to actually get together like this, truly surprises me."
The old woman greeted them with a smile, standing before Xue Shou and the others. She glanced at Xue Shou with a surprised expression, then said with a smile, "I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Xue to be here as well."
A forced smile appeared on Xue Shou's face, looking extremely awkward, as he said, "So it's the Mad Crone. The Mad Crone isn't in seclusion in the Holy Land, but has come to join the fun?"
The Mad Crone laughed heartily, though most of her teeth had fallen out, she still spoke fluently, saying with a smile, "Even Bloody-Handed Butcher has come to join in the fun. If I were still in seclusion, wouldn't I be missing out on some of this grand occasion?"
Kuang Yang laughed heartily, cupped his hands, and said, " Mad Crone, you are still vigorous and your charm is as strong as ever. I just wonder what happened here? Is the legendary Saint Realm expert here?"
The Mad Crone glanced at Kuang Yang, looked around, and said, "Do you think a Saint Realm expert would be among these ordinary people?"
Kuang Yang's expression changed. He looked around following the Mad Crone's gaze, then shook his head and said, "Of course not here."
As he spoke, Kuang Yang shook his head and chuckled, saying, "I was being too impetuous and forgot about the Mad Crone's character. Even if Saint Realm expert were here, I doubt Mad Crone would have told us, would she?"
Yang Zhen watched in amazement from the crowd. These Half-Step Great Saint were really unfriendly to each other; they started fighting as soon as they met?
Seeing the expression on Mad Crone's face, it was clear that a fight was about to break out at any moment. Yang Zhen took out three small stools from his storage ring and sat down in the crowd to watch the commotion.
Seeing that there was something to watch, that Shameless Cat got excited and perched on Yang Zhen's shoulder, saying, "Hey kid, got any melon seeds?"
Yang Zhen rolled her eyes at the Shameless Cat and said, "Don't be so ostentatious. It's already good enough that you can sit down, let alone eat sunflower seeds. Why don't you get some kebabs and have a couple of drinks?"
The Shameless Cat curled its lip and said, "I'd like to, but the conditions don't allow it."
Upon hearing Kuang Yang's words, the Mad Crone snorted coldly and said, "I've always been like this. Whether Saint Realm expert is here or not has nothing to do with you, Kuang Yang. Even if I told you that Saint Realm expert is right at the pinnacle, would you still dare to go and pay him a visit?"
What?
Kuang Yang and the others' expressions changed, especially Xue Shou, whose face was full of surprise and uncertainty. He stared at the mist on the summit, frowned, and said, "I can't sense the aura of the Saint Realm expert."
Kuang Yang chuckled and said to the Mad Crone, "We know that Mad Crone never lie. You just don't want to talk about some things. I thank Mad Crone for informing me of the information about the Saint Realm expert. Is it true that the rumor about the Saint Realm expert searching for something?"
Upon hearing Kuang Yang's words, all the Half-Step Great Saint present showed solemn expressions. If a Saint Realm expert was looking for something, it must be a treasure of heaven and earth, perhaps even the legendary Samsara Bell.
If what the Saint Realm experts are looking for is the Samsara Bell, then let alone the many ordinary cultivators present, even these Half-Step Great Saint probably have little chance.
The Mad Crone glanced at Kuang Yang and the others, squinted her eyes, and slowly said, "Whether you're looking for something, I don't know. But now that Saint Realm expert has entered a state of enlightenment, it's clear that he won't wake up anytime soon. Are you all going to wait here with me?"
Kuang Yang was taken aback, glancing at Juedian with surprise, and muttered to himself, "He has actually entered a state of enlightenment. In that case, the strange phenomena of heaven and earth will not change in the short term. This is good news."
With powerful Saint Realm experts present, many Half-Step Great Saint can accurately judge many things.
Now that Saint Realm expert has achieved enlightenment at this time, it is clear that even if a cataclysmic change were to occur, it would not happen in a short period of time.
For a time, many Half-Step Great Saint, each with their own thoughts, all began to recuperate quietly beneath the summit.
Yang Zhen, finding the scene utterly boring, turned to the Shameless Cat and asked, "What exactly is so abnormal about this place that you see?"
The Shameless Cat grinned and said, "Actually, it's because this place is too normal that it seems abnormal."
"What do you mean?" Yang Zhen was taken aback and became curious, looking around at his surroundings.
The Shameless Cat took a deep breath, looked around, and said, "Although your Earth Master Technique are nothing special, you can still see through changes over thousands of years at a glance. What changes have occurred here?"
Yang Zhen skipped a beat, and he asked in surprise, "No change?"
"Yes, nothing has changed!" the Shameless Cat nodded and said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen was completely taken aback!
A thousand years have passed, and nothing has changed here. Clearly, as the Shameless Cat said, this place is too normal, which makes it seem extremely abnormal.
Just as Yang Zhen to stand up to see why this place had remained unchanged for thousands of years, a deafening roar startled the thousands of people present.
"You brat, how dare you show your face here?"
A furious roar rang out, and Yang Zhen shuddered. He looked up and was immediately dumbfounded.
This is terrible!
Were we discovered?
