Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Upon a vast island, a path led to an attic.

The four disciples of the Wayless Sect, a Hidden Sect of the East State, were all walking on it, planning to see their Respected Master.

The four had passed through the competition, and all that was left was to wait for the other 25,000 to be eliminated before they could advance to the next round. Until then, they didn't need to fight anymore.

All they had to do was wait for the start of the next round.

Thus, the four planned on visiting Chu Yuan.

As they walked the path,

Ye Luo and the other two could not help but feel intensely curious about Dantai Luoxue's methods, bombarding her with questions one after another.

After all, the fact that Dantai Luoxue could isolate the secret realm had caught them somewhat by surprise.

For the three of them, if they wanted to burst through a secret realm, that would be quite simple.

However, to sever the connection between these minor secret realms and the central hub—that was a bit more troublesome.

Even Su Qianyuan couldn't manage it.

If Ye Luo and Zhang Han wanted to sever the connection between the minor secret realms and the central hub, they would have to bring out the Endless Sword Gourd and the Heaven and Earth Map to do so.

Therefore, they were very curious about what Dantai Luoxue relied on to isolate the secret realm.

Could it be that treasure that surpassed the Spiritual Treasures:

The three of them were all very curious.

Facing her fellow sect disciples, Dantai Luoxue did not play coy and answered directly.

"This has to do with the Chess Path that the Respected Master has taught to me, his junior sister. The Chess Path he taught me is about controlling everything. Heaven and earth are the chessboard, and the chessboard also represents heaven and earth. Within my chessboard, I am heaven and earth. Once I've set up my chessboard in that secret realm, it naturally comes under my jurisdiction and thus escapes the control of the Cultivators Alliance,"

Dantai Luoxue said with a light laugh.

Upon hearing this,

Ye Luo and the other two all had a moment of realization.

Immediately followed by some amazement.

Heaven and earth as the chessboard, the chessboard as heaven and earth…

That is to say, when facing this junior sister, one might have to confront an entire heaven and earth.

Rejection by heaven and earth can weaken one's combat strength.

For those who rely on the power of heaven and earth, it's almost like a father beating his son, such as someone who needs to borrow the power of heaven and earth to use talismans, or someone who must draw on the power of heaven and earth to lay out formations.

As Ye Luo thought about this, he suddenly turned his gaze towards Zhang Han.

"Don't look at me like that, big senior brother,"

Zhang Han rolled his eyes.

He had the Heaven and Earth Map, which completely made up for his shortcomings.

It would only marginally weaken his combat strength, at most.

"I just feel you might not even be able to beat our fourth junior sister now,"

Ye Luo said with a smile.

"Impossible!"

Zhang Han's mouth twitched with a denial.

Ye Luo was about to tease Zhang Han further,

but Dantai Luoxue, seeing this, shook her head and stepped forward.

"There's no such thing. I have also seen the second senior brother's battles. He can borrow the Star Force, instantly forming arrays. This method of forming arrays is very strong,"

"What our big senior brother means is that he probably thinks since I can establish a chessboard of heaven and earth, it could prevent the second senior brother from borrowing the Star Force. However, it's not necessarily the case. Although I can establish a Heaven and Earth Chessboard, if the second senior brother's understanding of the Dao exceeds mine, he can forcibly break through the chessboard and summon the stars,"

Dantai Luoxue said, sharing her conjecture with a smile.

By implication,

She and Zhang Han were evenly matched.

It was simply about whose comprehension of the Dao was stronger.

If her Dao was stronger, then Zhang Han wouldn't even be able to summon the stars, and his combat strength would be weakened.

If Zhang Han's Dao was stronger, then her chessboard would be broken, and her combat strength would also be affected.

All this, assuming neither side used any magical items.

Using magical items would be another story.

Hearing this,

Zhang Han paused for a moment, probably understanding his junior sister's point. He smacked his lips and did not say much more.

He sized up the situation for himself and figured that if they really fought, he probably wouldn't have the upper hand.

His junior sister had a treasure.

He did not…

He, the future Sect Master of the Daoless Sect, was really quite a failure at this.

But no matter.

Once he inherited the position of Sect Master of the Daoless Sect, all the resources of the sect would be in his hands.

Thinking like this, Zhang Han felt relieved.

"Alright, there's no use talking about this anymore. When we're free, we can spar with each other. Let's go meet the Respected Master first,"

Zhang Han said, waving his hand dismissively.

The other three had no objections and nodded.

The four fellow disciples chatted casually as they walked toward the attic.

Before long, the four entered the attic and inquired about the whereabouts of their Respected Master.

However, the news they received was that Chu Yuan had already left, and he had left with Ao Yu. At present, they'd left the island with no known destination.

Upon hearing this news, the four disciples were a bit stunned.

The Grand Competition of All Sects hadn't ended yet, where had their Respected Master gone?

The four were full of doubts.

In the end, it was Ye Luo who stepped forward.

"The Respected Master must have had urgent matters to attend to, so he left for a while. Anyway, there is still some time before the Grand Competition of All Sects ends. He will surely return by then,"

"We should just prepare for the upcoming fights,"

Ye Luo said, standing in front of the attic.

Su Qianyuan and Dantai Luoxue naturally had nothing to say and nodded, clearly ready to follow their senior brother's lead.

Zhang Han was somewhat puzzled.

"But, senior brother, this is Zhongzhou. What could be so urgent for our Respected Master?"

Zhang Han asked.

"Second junior brother, haven't you heard the rumors about our Wayless Sect? The legacy that has lasted for three million years, how can you know how many years the Respected Master has been around? Perhaps a very long time ago, the Respected Master was also a genius of his time, who made a name for himself in Zhongzhou. He may have several old friends in Zhongzhou and he's going to visit them now – that seems normal, doesn't it?"

Ye Luo said with a shake of his head and a smile.

Zhang Han, upon hearing this, suddenly understood.

It was as if he had conjured up an entire story in his mind.

"In that case, three senior brothers, let's return to the mountain peak to rest,"

Dantai Luoxue suggested upon seeing their reaction.

Ye Luo and the other two readily agreed.

The four sect disciples were about to take flight.

Just at that moment.

Ye Luo happened to catch a glimpse of a group of disciples from the Grand Competition of All Sects gathered around the corner in front of the attic, seemingly discussing something.

Ye Luo, feeling a bit curious, called his three fellow disciples over to fly toward them to see what was happening.

Soon, the four of them arrived at the scene.

They immediately saw a crowd of dozens gathered around, listening to the leading figure, with Holy Land Disciples who were passing by also joining in to see what the fuss was about.

And that leader was Ma Lian. Discover exclusive tales on empire

"I'm telling you, I was careless during the competition. I didn't dodge; that disciple from the Hidden Sect did not act honorably and sneak-attacked me, a senior!"

Ma Lian spoke with conviction.

His tone was quite persuasive.

This rendered the four disciples from the Wayless Sect speechless.

In the end, the eyes of Ye Luo and the other two fell upon Su Qianyuan.

The message couldn't have been clearer.

Your opponent.

You stirred up this trouble, you solve it.

Su Qianyuan also twitched the corners of his mouth, not expecting his opponent to be so shameless, to babble nonsense after losing.

Well, if they could not solve it by talking, then they would have to settle it by action.

With a sigh, Su Qianyuan touched his bald head and flew down toward the group.
