Sword Flight, the Kunlun Forbidden Ground
"These are not ordinary clouds. They must be caused by cultivators riding Law Artifact or Demon Beast. I once heard my master say that besides cultivators, there are also some powerful Demon Beast in this world that can fly and burrow underground. Among those Demon Beasts, some are very strong and can ride flying swords!" Lü Dongbin explained.
"Doesn't that mean that some cultivators are flying swords to Mount Kunlun?"
"Yes!"
"In that case, let's hurry back. I want to see who this expert who flew all the way to our Mount Kunlun is!"
"Alright, let's set off now!"
"Um!"
The two hurriedly returned to Kunlun.
They ran all the way back to the foot of the Mount Kunlun.
"Brother Lü, wait for me a moment, I'll go and report to Master first!" After saying that, Cao Guojiu turned and ran towards the main peak of Kunlun.
Watching Cao Guojiu's departing figure, Lü Dongbin muttered to himself, "This Cao Guojiu's acting skills are truly superb. If I were an ordinary person, I would definitely have been fooled by his superb acting. Unfortunately, I am not an ordinary person, which is why I was able to see through his disguise!"
Lü Dongbin's gaze
Looking out through the dense forest, his pupils suddenly contracted as he spotted a flying Immortal Artifact toward him at incredible speed, arriving before him in the blink of an eye.
This flying Immortal Artifact is no ordinary flying Immortal Artifact. It is controlled by an old man dressed in black robes. This old man has a very powerful aura and has reached the Ninth Layer of the Golden Core Stage. He is extremely powerful.
The old man wore a silver mask that obscured his facial features, making it impossible to see his face clearly. Only a pair of sharp eyes were visible, their cold glint sending chills down one's spine.
Who are you? How dare you trespass into my Kunlun Forbidden Ground?
The old man's cold tone reached Lü Dongbin's ears, causing Lü Dongbin to feel displeased.
"My esteemed immortal, I am Lü Dongbin. I have come to Mount Kunlun to search for a senior from the Southern Wilderness!"
"Oh? So Brother Lü came here for the immortal from Mount Kunlun? Well then, I'm sorry, he won't see you!"
Why?
"Because he is currently in seclusion studying Mahayana Stage Cultivation Method, he has no time to see you!"
"Oh, I see!"
Lü Dongbin nodded, feeling relieved.
He knew that his current cultivation level was too low to contend with Late Golden Core Stage cultivator, let alone the fact that the other party was the prized disciple of the Kunlun Sect Immortal Elder.
However, this matter also caught Lü Dongbin's attention, because he heard that back in the Southern Wilderness, his ancestor had fought with the Immortal Elder of Kunlun. The two fought for half a year, but the Immortal Elder of Kunlun still failed to defeat him and instead allowed him to escape!
Lü Dongbin guessed that the Immortal Elder of Kunlun must have had some special means to evade the Immortal's pursuit; otherwise, how could someone with such terrifying strength possibly escape the Immortal's clutches?
Lü Dongbin believed in his judgment; the Immortal Elder of Kunlun did indeed possess some special means to evade the Immortal's attacks, otherwise, the Immortal would have captured Lü Dongbin long ago.
Thinking of this, Lü Dongbin's eyes flashed with intense killing intent. He decided to find an opportunity to visit this Immortal Elder of Kunlun and see where he was hiding!
"Brother Lü, please!"
"Yes!" Lü Dongbin nodded.
Then, the two walked towards the hall, and along the way, many disciples bowed to them.
Upon entering the main hall, two elderly men stood on either side of it, both possessing strength at the Nascent Soul Early Stage.
Lü Dongbin glanced at the two men, ignored them, and walked straight toward the head seat in the main hall.
"Brother Lü, this way please!" an old man said respectfully.
"Good!"
Lü Dongbin nodded and stepped into the main hall.
"Hmm? Who are you two? Has no Human Teaching you manners? Fellow Daoist Lü is a guest of Kunlun. Don't you know how to greet him?" On the head seat of the main hall, an old man with white hair and a long white beard suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the old man standing to his left and the old man standing to his right.
The two elders were both leaders of the Kunlun Sect disciples. Usually, two people would be in charge of all the sect's affairs. On weekdays, they would handle all the matters in the sect, and they were very familiar with everything in the sect.
But they never saw anyone put on airs in front of them.
"Yes! Grandmaster Uncle, this disciple knows his sins!" The two bowed respectfully.
"Get out!" the old man roared. The two old men were so frightened that they wet themselves and turned to run out the door, afraid of being scolded mercilessly.
This scene caught Lü Dongbin's eye, causing Lü Dongbin to raise an eyebrow and reveal a look of surprise. He hadn't expected the Immortal Elder of Kunlun to have such a fiery temper.
"Brother Lü, please forgive me, please forgive me!" the old man said hurriedly with a smile, looking terrified.
"Hehe, it's alright, it's alright!"
"Fellow Daoist Lü, please come in! Our Immortal Elder will be out shortly!"
"Oh!" Lü Dongbin nodded and stepped into the main hall.
"Fellow Daoist Lü, you arrived very quickly!"
As soon as Lü Dongbin entered the main hall, he saw a man with a full beard sitting upright on a futon in a corner, cultivating with his eyes closed. This cultivator was none other than the Immortal Elder of Kunlun. Upon seeing him, Lü Dongbin quickly clasped his hands in greeting. "Disciple greets Senior Kunlun! Disciple Lü Dongbin pays respects to Senior!"
"No need for formalities. May I ask what brings Brother Lü to Mount Kunlun this time?"
"This junior has something to ask the venerable elder for guidance!"
"Oh? What matter requires Brother Lü to come in person?" Immortal Elder of Kunlun opened his eyes and asked with a puzzled look.
"That's right, I've heard that there was once an immortal in Mount Kunlun, a man of extraordinary strength, a wandering immortal!"
"That rogue immortal was indeed very powerful. It's a pity he disappeared more than 35,000 years ago!"
"Disappear?"
"Yes, more than 35,000 years ago, that wandering immortal suddenly disappeared. His disciples and grand-disciples searched everywhere for news, but none of them could find him. Even the other immortal elders of Kunlun could not find him. Even the treasures he used, the weapons he used, and everything he owned were looted by other sects. What he left behind was also taken by others!"
Upon hearing the Immortal Elder of Kunlun mention that wandering immortal, Lü Dongbin immediately recalled the scene of his battle with the Immortal Elder of Kunlun years ago. At that time, he had not yet advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm, but he used a Great Grasping Technique to capture the Immortal Elder of Kunlun.
