A Youngster with an Extraordinary Background

"Let him take it away?"

Xiao Qian was taken aback, looked at the old man in front of him, and said:

"Using so much at once, this will be difficult to explain later..."

The Withering and Flourishing Sect is a powerful force, with various factions within it that check and balance each other.

"Giving" is a single sentence, but the explanation is quite different.

Upon hearing this, the old man gave Xiao Qian a deep look and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, there are still quite a few people trying to compete with these lower realms for resources, aren't there?"

When this was mentioned, Xiao Qian looked somewhat embarrassed and nodded:

There will always be some people who try to find loopholes and exploit them to gain something from them.

"However, this time, they stopped them all to prevent them from clashing with the other side and ultimately implicating our Withering and Flourishing Sect."

He was still very clear about how most people in the sect treated those from the lower realms.

Without knowing the other party's identity, who knows what outrageous things they might do.

The old man waved his hand, showing little reaction.

"Even under the light, darkness is inevitable; the existence of some is not a problem, as long as they can withstand the pressure when it matters most."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qian's face showed a thoughtful expression, and he pondered for a moment before saying:

"You mean, you want them to go?"

The old man smiled. "It seems you've already thought of it."

Xiao Qian understood immediately and said:

"I'll go arrange it right away."

The Withering and Flourishing Sect.

Somewhere.

"What on earth is going on? One minute it won't work, the next it will. You can't play games with people like this."

"I think they just want more, so they deliberately pulled this stunt to make us pay more."

"They're really greedy. They always give them a lot, and they still want to ask for an exorbitant price. But this time they didn't try to raise the price, I guess they're preparing for next time."

"Then, Father, shall I set off now?"

"Go ahead, who knows when the next time will be."

Similar situations occurred in many places within the Withering and Flourishing Sect.

The Five Continents Domain.

Brush.

In Lu Changzhi's hand, eight Unsealing Key were drawn out by an invisible force and hovered in the void in front of him.

The eight Unsealing Key were on the same plane, and with a slight tremor, light emanated from Unsealing Key.

In the blink of an eye, an array materialized.

Spatial fluctuations then arose, and a spatial passage appeared in the center of the eight Unsealing Key.

"It's enabled."

Lu Changzhi said softly, and was about to step inside.

Just then...

Above, Du Sheng's figure materialized, and his voice rang out, tinged with anger:

"To deceive everyone, that's really... um..."

The figure flashed by, and before the words could be finished, a force suddenly enveloped the person, then pulled them away without a trace.

"Um?"

Lu Changzhi raised an eyebrow and turned to look, but there was no one in sight.

"It seems there's someone secretly watching all along."

We still need to be careful.

Immediately, Lu Changzhi took out the Dao-Severing Sword Spirit and walked directly into the passage.

Meanwhile, in the distant void.

Du Sheng was startled by the sudden, almost unnoticed, covering of his mouth, which sent a chill down his spine.

Although his cultivation level wasn't particularly high, it was still quite respectable in this lower realm.

As a result, the other party dragged him away without saying a word and even suppressed his resistance.

Immediately, Du Sheng looked at the person who had attacked him.

"Steward Xiao... Chief Steward Xiao?"

Upon seeing the person who arrived, Du Sheng's heart skipped a beat.

As a member of the Domain Masters, he was assigned to the Domain Administration Hall within the Withering and Flourishing Sect, and the head steward of the Domain Administration Hall was none other than the person before him.

What brings you here?

For a moment, Du Sheng became somewhat apprehensive.

Xiao Qian didn't explain, but simply pointed to the entrance in the distance and said:

"You were shouting so loudly just now, you know that was dangerous!"

Upon hearing this, Du Sheng's face flashed with a hint of confusion, and he looked over:

"I don't understand why the steward says that... This... This!"

Halfway through his sentence, Du Sheng's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he stared intently at the figure before the entrance.

To be precise, it was the sword light beside the boy.

He had a feeling that the sword's edge was so strong it could kill him!

Du Sheng looked at Xiao Qian again, his heart filled with shock.

Anyone who can unleash such a sword aura is either extraordinary in themselves or has an extraordinary background; in short, they are no ordinary person!

Xiao Qian's face also showed some surprise and uncertainty. Noticing Du Sheng's gaze, he said:

"You should have realized it too; dealing with you is still no problem."

"The steward, he is..." Du Sheng asked tentatively.

Xiao Qian gently shook his head, offering no explanation, but simply said:

"A little guy with a rather complicated background."

Scenery changes.

After a brief feeling of weightlessness, the scenery before my eyes changed.

As far as the eye can see, there is only the vast land.

Apart from that, there was nothing else; not to mention mountains and lakes, there wasn't even a trace of forest or vegetation.

In the distance, a beam of light connects heaven and earth.

Upon closer inspection, a jade-green vessel, not small in size, could be seen within the light.

"It's quite different from what I imagined."

Lu Changzhi wasn't too surprised by the soft remark.

This is no ordinary secret realm, and those scenic spots are of little use here.

"But could that light be the very source of the chance to achieve immortality?"

With nothing else around, Lu Changzhi got up and walked forward.

Upon closer inspection, one could sense that this space was also filled with a suppressive force.

This place is not a place for flying, and what surprised Lu Changzhi was that, imperceptibly, this world seemed to be constantly weakening his physical body.

In other words, the defensive capability is constantly declining.

Thinking about its purpose, Lu Changzhi couldn't help but shake his head:

"I'm really afraid that those Saint Realm experts might fight each other without any incident."

Under normal circumstances, Saint Realm experts, especially those who have reached the Saint Venerable and Saint Emperor levels, will fight for a long time unless they have an absolute advantage in strength, and the outcome may be uncertain.

But if the physical body becomes weak, then it's hard to say what will happen.

As he sensed it, Lu Changzhi's figure also moved towards the source of the light.

Of course, he did not forget the purpose of his trip.

"System, task?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the system said:

"Master, take seven more steps forward."

Lu Changzhi smiled upon hearing this; the distance control was indeed quite precise.

Seven steps later.

A system notification sounded in Lu Changzhi's ear:

"Congratulations, host, you have completed the special mission— Longevity Battlefield —and have obtained: System Feature Enhancement."

"During the system feature enhancement period, some system functions are temporarily restricted. Shall we begin the enhancement process?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi gently shook his head.

"No."

The Descent upon the disciple's head, achieved through the system. Based on Lu Changzhi's understanding of the system, he didn't know how long this enhancement would last.

If there's no way to use the Descent ability, I don't know how long it would take to get back on my own.
