Chapter 1103 - Gauzu
A peak cultivator of the five forms, definitely would not die for no reason!
There must have been someone hiding in the shadows, quietly launching a sneak attack, only using some sort of strange method to deceive the eyes and perception of everyone on the peak.
"If you stand out yourself, I can spare your life. If you let me find you, don't blame us for being ruthless."
Another old man shouted.
The surrounding Ling Xiao Sword Sect cultivators were also extremely vigilant, their gazes sweeping the area, as though they wanted to find the person hiding in the dark.
"Could there really be outsiders?"
Jiu Ling blinked her gem-like beautiful eyes in surprise, while Tang Huan and Shan Shan looked at each other, their expressions were also somewhat uncertain.
For Shan Shan and Yu Feiyan to accidentally enter this place after passing through the "Ling Xiao Ancient Road", other cultivators could also use various methods to come here.
It was just like how, in forty-five years, his great-grandfather had entered this "Sword Illusion Paradise."
Now, the "Ling Xiao Sword Sect" had created another great formation and activated it with five keys, sending all one hundred and ninety-nine cultivators and one Holy Beast inside.
"Oh?"
At this moment, a mocking voice sounded out, "This old man would like to see how ruthless and merciless you all are."
The moment the voice fell, a shadow appeared on the summit. It was a middle-aged man of about forty years old, tall and sturdy, wearing a red robe like fire, with a handsome face. However, his eyes seemed to contain boundless vicissitudes of life.
His true age was obviously due to his appearance which revealed that he was much older.
"This, this..."
The moment they saw this middle-aged man, both Tang Huan and Shan Shan were stunned. They had to endure and endure in their hearts before they were able to keep quiet.
This shadow that had suddenly appeared was impressively a mountain and river.
Shan Shan had lived in the Heavenly Forging City since childhood and within the Sacred Palace, there were still many portraits of the founding emperor of the Glory Empire, Mountain River, hanging from the walls. The mountain and river in the portrait was rather old. Although the middle-aged man in front of him was much younger, his physique and facial features were exactly the same.
Tang Huan had not only seen pictures of mountains and rivers before, he had also searched through Ai Yinghao's memories. This was the same as looking through Ai Yinghao's eyes, and seeing the mountain and river from 45 years ago with his own eyes. In Tang Huan's mind, the middle-aged man in front of him had already completely overlapped with the mountains and rivers in Ai Yinghao's memories.
He really did not expect that the mountains and rivers were actually still inside the "Sword Illusion Paradise". Tang Huan thought that he had left a long time ago.
Tang Huan took a deep breath, feeling shocked in his heart.
The astonishment in Shan Shan's heart surpassed Tang Huan's by no means. Today, not only did he reunite with Tang Huan, but he had even met such a person, who was extremely suspicious of her nominal grandfather, "Mountain River". At this moment, the shock at the bottom of Shan Shan's heart could not be described with words.
"It's you!"
"Mountains and rivers!"
"..."
The Void Transformation Stage old man who was still clamoring earlier immediately revealed a shocked expression. Not only him, but the other nine Void Transformation Stage experts also revealed similar expressions.
Ling Xiao Sword Sect had been tormenting themselves on the summit of the Broken Sword Sect for decades.
In fact, even in the current "Ling Xiao Sword Sect", there was even a portrait of the cultivator that had slaughtered his way into the Broken Sword Peak, heavily injured the Primordius Sect, and then charged into the "Illusory Sword Paradise" all those years ago.
The middle-aged man who had suddenly appeared in front of them was none other than the mountain and river.
Forty-five years had passed, yet he still remained in this "Sword Fantasy Paradise". At that time, Shanhe had already reached the Fourth Cycle of the Void Transformation. He had been cultivating in the "Sword Illusion Paradise", which was filled with precious fruits, for decades. His cultivation must have been even more terrifying, and now he had probably reached the Ninth Cycle of the Void Transformation.
This was already a cultivation level comparable to the sect master of the "Ling Xiao Sword Sect".
Among these ten "Ling Xiao Sword Sect", the strongest one, the Void Transformation Elder, was only at the Void Transformation Stage Five Revolutions, and fighting against the powerful experts at the Void Transformation Stage was no different from courting death. Even if Shanhe was only at the Void Transformation Stage Eight and even at the Void Transformation Stage Seven Revolutions, it was still not something they could contend against.
The difference in strength was not something that could be made up for by numbers!
"So it's someone from the Ling Xiao Sword Sect. No wonder you know this old man." Shanhe smiled faintly, "Who said just now that he would be ruthless to me?"
"I don't dare!" "I don't dare!"
The ten Void Transformation Stage experts smiled apologetically like a mouse meeting a cat. The fiendish expression from before was completely gone.
Shanhe's tone was slightly gloomy, "Since you don't dare, then just get lost!"
"..."
A dignified Void Transformation Stage expert actually being reprimanded like this. The ten of them couldn't help but feel a surge of anger, but they didn't dare to let it out. Although the opponent had only revealed a phantom image, it was enough to easily kill Xiang Wenlong who was at the peak of the Five Transformation. Once the real body was revealed, the power displayed would definitely be even more formidable.
At this time, it was more important to keep their lives, otherwise, if they angered the enemy into a massacre, the "Ling Xiao Sword Sect" cultivators would all be annihilated.
"You seem to be very dissatisfied with this old man?" Mountain and River laughed coldly.
"I don't dare!" "I don't dare!"
The ten people forced out a smile and bowed before retreating.
At this time, their dignity had been completely swept away. However, in this sort of situation, no matter how important their dignity was, it could not be compared to their lives.
Seeing that the ten Void Transformation Stage experts had such terrible reactions when facing the mountains and rivers, the Ling Xiao Sword Sect cultivators were speechless, but their hearts were filled with turmoil, their eyes were filled with astonishment, and gaze after gaze, from the ten elders to the mountains and rivers, tried to find any clues.
Just what kind of person was this mountain and river, to make the elders so afraid?
The mountain river didn't pay any more attention to them and floated towards Tang Huan and Shan Shan, as their expressions became quite kind and benevolent, and said to Tang Huan while smiling: "Little fellow, I think you have recognized this old man, and when this old man saw you, he also felt that they were related by blood."
"Descendant Tang Huan greets Grandfather Gao!" Tang Huan took a deep breath, slightly calming his heart, and then bowed towards the mountain and river. Mountains and rivers had their own children, mountains had their own children, forests had their own son, mountains and forests had their own son, so naturally, these mountains and rivers were his ancestors.
"Ancestor Gao …."
A look of reminiscence flashed in Shan He's eyes, and only after a while did he come back to his senses, "So it's this old man's profound grandson. Good! "Alright!" Finished speaking, Shan He laughed, and did not ask Tang Huan why he called himself "descendant of the younger generation", and used "Tang" as his surname instead, and not "Shan" as his surname.
Then, the eyes of the mountains and rivers landed on Shan Shan, and smiled: "Little girl, this old man seems to see the shadow of an old friend on you."
