Mythical Cultivation

Chapter 542 Murderous Intent Under the Moonlight

Just as Wu Ming was wondering, Chu Nan suddenly broke the silence and slowly said, "Although Golden Core True Persons are powerful, this only applies to the true disciples and elders within the sect."

In reality, those Golden Core cultivators from smaller factions are not invincible. As long as we go all out and use every trick in the book, we may still find a way to escape their pursuit.

Hearing Chu Nan's unexpected remarks, especially coming from his usually taciturn senior brother, Wu Ming was quite astonished.

He stared wide-eyed at Chu Nan in disbelief, as if trying to find a trace of mockery or a joke on the other's face.

However, Chu Nan's expression remained serious and earnest, without the slightest hint of pretense.

"Senior Brother Chu must have a deep understanding of the power of a Golden Core cultivator!"

After all, these real people only need to make a move at will, and their power can cover an area of ​​several miles.

Whether it's splitting mountains and cleaving rocks, or overwhelming mountains and seas, it's all as easy as turning one's hand.

How could we, with our mere Foundation Establishment cultivation, possibly withstand such a terrifying attack?

Unable to contain his doubts any longer, Wu Ming went straight to Chu Nan and asked him the question.

Faced with Wu Ming's questioning, Chu Nan did not explain much, but simply replied: "It is indeed unrealistic to defeat a Golden Core cultivator, but there is still a certain chance of saving my life, although the possibility is extremely small."

After saying this, Chu Nan fell silent, as if he had already made his stance clear.

For the next while, the three of them fell into a brief period of contemplation, each weighing the pros and cons.

After careful consideration, they reached an agreement and returned to their respective residences to rest for a while, deciding to discuss everything the next day.

Tonight, the sky seemed to be shrouded in a huge black curtain, with not a single star shining. Even the bright moon, which usually hangs high in the night sky, was hiding away as if it were shy.

The night was as dark as ink, thick and deep, giving people an endless sense of oppression.

In this pitch blackness, only a few low roars could be heard from afar.

It seemed as if some unknown monster was venting its dissatisfaction or anger, but because of the great distance, the roars did not sound real, but rather like wails coming from the underworld.

However, in this seemingly tranquil and peaceful camp, an unknown conspiracy is quietly brewing.

Several figures appeared silently in the darkness, like ghosts.

As soon as the three dark figures appeared, they quickly gathered together without exchanging any words or even breathing, as if afraid of breaking the surrounding tranquility.

Immediately afterwards, they flashed away like birds, rushing towards a tent at an astonishing speed.

As for what they were actually going to do, no one knew.

The next morning, before the sun had risen and the first rays of dawn had pierced the clouds, a fierce argument suddenly broke the silence of the camp.

Startled awake, Wu Ming hurriedly put on his coat and rushed out of the tent to check the situation.

As soon as he stepped out of the tent, he saw his two senior brothers, Chu Nan and Pan Ning, standing not far away. Their faces were solemn and their expressions serious, clearly arguing about something important.

What on earth is going on?! It's so noisy and chaotic so early in the morning! Wu Ming asked, his face full of suspicion.

Meanwhile, Pan Ning, standing to the side, was equally bewildered: "I just finished meditating too, I have no idea what happened!"

When he said this, his tone clearly carried a hint of impatience and anxiety—after all, anyone would be annoyed to be woken up early in the morning!

As for Chu Nan, he remained silent, but gently shook his head to indicate that he knew nothing about the matter.

Faced with such a perplexing situation, the three of them were completely baffled, so they decided to go together to the place where the noisy commotion was coming from to find out what had happened.

As they moved forward step by step, the increasingly loud and jarring arguments became clearer and clearer.

Gradually, a crowd of onlookers came into view...

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the three of them. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Huang Wenyan, an elder of the Huang family.

Fellow Daoist Wu, Fellow Daoist Chu, Fellow Daoist Pan, you've all arrived too.

Huang Wenyan greeted him with a big smile and a very enthusiastic attitude.

However, despite Huang Wenyan's enthusiastic greeting, Wu Ming frowned and asked, "Fellow Daoist Huang, what exactly happened here? Why have you all come here?"

It should be noted that the cave has not yet been opened at this moment, and all forces are maintaining a delicate balance.

No one dared to easily break this situation, for fear of giving other forces an opportunity to take advantage.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the major powers will remain inactive and observe the situation.

Huang Wenyan seemed to see through Wu Ming's thoughts, and he lowered his voice to explain: "Hey, you don't know, but last night an elder of the Luoxia Sect suddenly died."

It's said they got into a dispute with the Biluo Sword Sect, but the specific reason is still unclear. Right now, the two sides are locked in a stalemate, arguing fiercely!

As he said this, a hint of barely perceptible schadenfreude appeared on Huang Wenyan's face.

It turns out that the Luoxia Sect was not a local power in Baiye County; it came from the neighboring Da'an County and was a third-rate sect.

Coincidentally, the Luoxia Sect is directly opposed to the Biluo Sword Sect in Baiye County. They have a long-standing feud and have always been irreconcilable enemies.

"An elder of the Luoxia Sect has perished?" Wu Ming muttered to himself in astonishment.

The news was so shocking that he could hardly believe it.

After all, all the powerful forces are now trying their best to be patient and carefully avoid friction and conflict with other forces, just waiting for the mysterious cave to open.

Therefore, upon hearing of this change, Wu Ming immediately felt a sense of foreboding—there must be a huge conspiracy hidden behind this!

In an instant, a thought flashed through my mind like lightning: Could it be that the infamous Blood Fiend Sect is up to its old tricks again?

This demonic sect, known for its cruelty and tyranny, has always enjoyed stirring up trouble and creating chaos. The more Wu Ming thought about it, the more reasonable and well-founded it seemed. He couldn't help but frown and fall into deep thought.

Huang Wenyan, oblivious to his thoughts, said with a hint of schadenfreude: "Yes, the situation is now on the verge of exploding! The Luoxia Sect and the Biluo Sword Sect are already like enemies, and the slightest carelessness could trigger an earth-shattering war."

If it weren't for neutral forces like us mediating, the two sides would probably have been locked in a fierce and protracted battle long ago!
