Chapter 3663: Sect Guardian Pavilion
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
During the journey to the Hidden Fog Sect, Duan Ling Tian found that the test for the core disciples was only half a year away.
Tang Chun said, “You’re now an inner disciple of the sect so you’ll enjoy the resources of inner disciples. Under normal circumstances, you wouldn’t have been able to join the Hidden Fog Sect so quickly even if you’re recommended by the Vice Sect Leader. However, an exception is made this time since Vice Sect Leader Murong recommended you twice. The first time, he recommended that you be made a core disciple of the sect. When he found out it would take a while for you to become a core disciple, he recommended that you be made an inner disciple first. Since this is his first time recommending a student to join the sect in advance, the sect was quick to agree to his request. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to join the sect so quickly.”
Duan Ling Tian did not expect Murong Sui Feng to secretly help him out. He did not doubt Tang Chun’s words since there was no reason for Tang Chun to lie about this matter. Moreover, he could easily discover the truth once he arrived at the Hidden Fog Sect.
…
After some time had passed.
“We’re about to arrive at the Hidden Fog Sect.”
Tang Chun led Duan Ling Tian into a mountainous forest. As they traveled deeper into the forest, the fog grew thicker as well. It was getting harder to see ahead of them.
In the past, Duan Ling Tian had been to many places that were protected by Formations. However, he had never encountered a fog that seemed so boundless like this one. Naturally, he knew this fog was from a Formation. At one point, the fog was so thick that they could not see past 100 meters. Moreover, their Divine Consciousness was also blocked.
After passing through 99 clouds of fog, Tang Chun finally said, “We’re here.”
The fog cleared up as soon as they arrived at the Hidden Fog Sect’s estate.
Duan Ling Tian saw a vast plain where a huge island floated in the sky. The island was so big that it seemed capable of housing 1,000 cities the size of Skywind City. It looked like a paradise where immortals lived. The island was surrounded by beautiful mountains and shrouded by fog that kept away prying eyes.
“The 99 layers of fog we passed through are from the Sect Guarding Formation that protects the periphery of the estate. Outsiders will have a hard time crossing the layers of fog,” Yang Chun explained, “I’m able to bring outsiders here because of my inner elder’s identity token. Outer elders and inner disciples can only bring one person here. Naturally, outer disciples can’t bring anyone here. Just like inner elders, core disciples are allowed to bring three people here. Those who forcibly enter this place will be attacked by the Sect Guarding Formation. Those weaker than Lords of Gods will definitely die. Even ordinary Lords of Gods will be injured if they barge in.”
With these words, Duan Ling Tian learned about how powerful the Formation was.
Tang Chun continued to say, “Apart from the Formation that protects the boundary of the estate, we have another Sect Guarding Formation protecting the sect. The fog shrouding the island is from that Formation. Without an identity token, you won’t be able to enter the estate. I won’t be able to bring you through that Formation. In order to do that, we’ll need to obtain clearance from the Sect Guardian Pavilion.” He paused for a moment before he said again, “The Sect Guardian Pavilion is responsible for protecting the sect. The members of the pavilion are incredibly loyal to the sect. They’re all death warriors.”
Tang Chun looked around his surroundings vigilantly before he continued to say through Voice Transmission, “The death warriors have taken the Devil Heart’s Blood Oath to be loyal to the sect. If they were to betray the sect, only death awaits them. Only those with positions higher than core elders can bring outsiders into the estate. Everyone else will have to obtain clearance from the Sect Guardian Pavilion before they can bring outsiders into the estate.”
“The Hidden Fog Sect is very strict with security. It’s quite extreme,” Duan Ling Tian said before he asked, “Did something happen in the past that caused the Hidden Fog Sect to be so highly vigilant?”
“According to rumors, that seems to be the case, but I’m not sure what happened,” Tang Chun said with a nod, “There’s no doubt our sect’s security is much stricter compared to other lord-rank forces. In fact, even emperor-rank forces might not be so strict with their security measures.”
Duan Ling Tian was certain something bad must have happened in the past for the Hidden Fog Sect’s security to be so tight. However, since even Tang Chun did not know what happened, it was clear that the high-ranking officials of the Hidden Fog Sect intended to keep the matter a secret.
“Duan Ling Tian, I’ve spoken to the people from the Sect Guardian Pavilion. We’ll have to wait for them to send someone over,” Tang Chun said, “After entering the sect and registering you as a disciple, you’ll be able to enter and leave the estate freely with your identity token.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded.
A few dozen breaths later, a figure emerged from the fog shrouding the floating island. The figure flashed a few times before arriving in front of Duan Ling Tian and Tang Chun. The figure belonged to an aloof middle-aged man who was dressed in a long black robe. He looked at Duan Ling Tian indifferently before he asked Tang Chun, “Elder Tang Chun, is he Duan Ling Tian, the Ten Stars student from the Hidden Fog Academy?”
“Yes.” Tang Chun nodded. Then he introduced the middle-aged man to Duan Ling Tian. “Duan Ling Tian, this is the Third Pavilion Master of the Sect Guardian Pavilion.”
At the same time, Tang Chun explained to Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission that there were 10 Pavilion Masters in the Sect Guardian Pavilion. Each Pavilion Master had 100 death warriors as their subordinates. Among the 10 Pavilion Masters, there were two Lords of Gods, and the others were outstanding advanced Kings of Gods. Apart from that, he also learned that the weakest death warrior was a rudimentary King of Gods.
‘The Sect Guardian Pavilion has 1,000 death warriors who are Kings of Gods?’ Duan Ling Tian was rather shocked by this discovery. Considering death warriors were not disciples, their number was truly high. Outwardly, he said, “Greetings, Third Pavilion Master.”
The middle-aged man did not respond to Duan Ling Tian’s greeting. Instead, he only said, “Show me your Ten Stars student’s identity token.”
Duan Ling Tian silently handed his identity token to the middle-aged man. He nodded after confirming Duan Ling Tian’s identity. Following that, an invisible force surged and swept toward Duan Ling Tian.
At the same time, the middle-aged man said, “Don’t resist. Otherwise, you’ll suffer the consequences…”
Duan Ling Tian relaxed his body after hearing those words. In the next moment, he discovered he had passed through the fog and had entered the Hidden Fog Sect’s estate.
After entering the estate, Tang Chun said, “Thank you, Third Pavilion Master.”
The middle-aged did not spare Tang Chun a glance before he vanished from their sight.
“The members of the Sect Guardian Pavilion are indifferent by nature. You’ll get used to it eventually,” Tang Chun explained with a smile.
Duan Ling Tian nodded in response.
“Let’s go and get you registered,” Tang Chun said to Duan Ling Tian.
With Tang Chun by his side, it only took Duan Ling Tian half an hour to be done with the registration.
“Duan Ling Tian, I have to attend to some matters now. I’ve already sent for someone to show you to the inner disciples’ cultivation ground,” Tang Chun said.
As soon as Tang Chun’s voice fell, a beautiful woman suddenly appeared in front of the duo. The woman was dressed in a long red robe. Although she was not a peerless beauty like Duan Ling Tian’s two wives and Huan’er, she was still a beauty in her own right.
“Greetings, granduncle,” the woman greeted Tang Chun respectfully. A hint of curiosity could be seen in her eyes when she looked at Duan Ling Tian through the corners of her eyes.
“Wu Yan, there’s something I need to deal with so I’ll leave Duan Ling Tian to you. Why don’t you show him around?” Tang Chun said with a smile.
Tang Wu Yan was the Tang clan’s most outstanding member among the younger generation. She was the only one in the clan who managed to become an inner disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect. Her peers were only outer disciples and outer elders.
Tang Chun turned to look at Duan Ling Tian and said with a smile, “Duan Ling Tian, this is my grandniece, Tang Wu Yan. She’s an inner disciple as well. If you have any questions, feel free to ask her.. She’ll bring you to the inner disciples’ cultivation ground as well.”
