Dragon King's Son-In-Law-Chapter 726: Seventh Heaven!
"Seventh Heaven?" Hao Ren looked at them doubtfully.
"Yeah. We got the information from Sky Mountain Sect who said that they had tried to ask for the herbs for Ethereal Summit, but the sects on Seventh Heaven didn't want to help," Lu Linlin said.
In the last dozen days, since Xie Yujia didn't have the energy to take care of the spiritual herbs in Ethereal Summit, the Lu sisters had often come here to manage the spiritual fields.
Hao Ren knew that the information from Sky Mountain Sect was reliable. They had told Ethereal Summit the information to gain favors.
Hao Ren studied Lu Linlin and Lu Lili's realms and found that they had recovered to mid-tier Qian-level in a short time; they would reach top-tier Qian-level in a little while.
"Then... Let's go and have a look on Seventh Heaven," Hao Ren said.
Now that he had reached Xun-level, he needed the mystic crystal the most at this moment. If they could successfully cultivate the Seven-Core Five-Color Lotus, he could plant the mystic crystal into his dragon core and reach Qian-level in three years. Then, it would be relatively safe for him to transfer half of the dragon core back to Zi.
"I... will go as well," Xie Yujia said softly.
"Me too," Zhao Yanzi offered bravely.
"You two stay in the valley and cultivate. In a place like Seventh Heaven, we'll work better with fewer people," Hao Ren said.
Xie Yujia thought about it and kept silent, knowing he was right. With her low realm, she would become a burden if she went with them.
Zhao Yanzi had wanted to see what Seventh Heaven was like, but she decided against it when she heard Hao Ren's words. After eating the Immortal Fruit, her belly felt warm, and she felt like a breakthrough was near.
If she could reach mid-tier Core Formation Realm, she would be more powerful! By then, the purple green sword mark on her belly would probably shrink!
Right now, that mark extended from her chest to her belly, and she must cover it with her clothes. It was very ugly!
"Linlin, Lili, come with me," Hao Ren looked at the Lu sisters by his side and said.
"Ok!" The Lu sisters said without hesitation. After all, they had the highest realms among the group.
"And you!"
Hao Ren suddenly shot out a white sword energy.
The sword energy flew toward a black disk which suddenly jumped up from a piece of black rock.
The sword energy shattered the rock.
The flying black disk was the golden shield. It had been lying on the big black rock and not moving at all, thinking that Hao Ren wouldn't recognize it.
When this thing flew out of the Nine Dragon Palace, Hao Ren knew that it would return to Xie Yujia or go to Ethereal Summit to replenish its nature essence.
The golden shield spun two circles before slowly going to another rock and lying on it.
Seeing its lazy look, Hao Ren knew that it was useless to call it again. With a slight snort, he patted Little White on its rump.
Little White changed back to its snow lion form and carried Hao Ren on its back. The Lu sisters flew out of Ethereal Summit with Hao Ren each stepping on a ring.
"The Master is back! The Master is back!"
The cultivators in the three small sects around Ethereal Summit yelled in excitement when they saw the pure white snow lion and the two fairy-like female cultivators stepping on rings bare-footed.
In the past dozen days, Hao Ren didn't appear around Ethereal Summit, which made the three sects anxious. They wondered if the Herb King Master had left Ethereal Summit. If he did, what should they do?
The disciples of the sects were instantly relieved when they saw Hao Ren's sudden appearance.
In the last while, the three sects had been expanding fast. The constructions had spread over half of the mountainside, and the number of new disciples had doubled.
Some new disciples hadn't seen the Herb King Master before. When they saw Hao Ren coming out riding on a hill-sized snow lion, they were filled with amazement and admiration.
"The Nascent Soul Realm cultivators are indeed magnificent!" they thought.
The new female disciples of Qin Yin Sect were attracted by Hao Ren's powerful presence and youthful look. However, they got the warning from their senior sisters very soon - the Herb King Master didn't even like their beautiful senior sister Wu Yan, let alone others!
All the cultivators were awed by Hao Ren's powerful presence and subconsciously ignored the Lu sisters who were very pretty.
Watching Hao Ren and the Lu sisters flying toward Sixth Heaven, the cultivators couldn't control their surging emotions. They were filled with pride even though they only got a glimpse from a distance!
After all, a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator was a mighty figure on Fifth Heaven. Besides, the Herb King Master who provided them with protection was a great figure whom even the large sects on Sixth Heaven couldn't mess with!
Qin Yin Sect, Seven Stars Sect, and Qiong Hua Sect's supplies of Foundation Establishment Pills were several times more than the other sects. Besides, they had many other kinds of level 3 elixirs! With such great fortune at hand, they must cultivate hard!
Watching the white snow lion disappearing into the clouds, the cultivators were filled with great admiration.
Hao Ren didn't know that him simply coming out of Ethereal Summit had caused such an upheaval among the young cultivators in these three sects.
He was just flying toward Sixth Heaven to ask Sky Mountain Sect for more information; he wasn't trying to put on a show. However, the cultivators watching him admired his presence as a master.
With its level 5 strength, Little White traveled through the array formation between Fifth Heaven and Sixth Heaven before flying toward Sky Mountain Sect.
After a period of resting and rebuilding, Sky Mountain Sect had gradually recovered its previous glory. Lingwu Master who represented the highest seniority in Sky Mountain Sect hadn't recovered to the peak Nascent Soul Realm, but he could cultivate again, which greatly boosted the morale of the disciples.
As long as Lingwu Master was with them, even if he couldn't reach peak Nascent Soul Realm, his rich cultivation experience would bring the juniors great benefits. Also, the overall strength of the sect would grow a lot.
At this moment, the two cultivators who were guarding the gate of Sky Mountain Sect tightened their grips on their swords when they saw a white mass flying toward them from a distance.
In the past, Sky Mountain Sect didn't need people to guard the gate. However, the current situation on Sixth Heaven was even more unsettling than that of Fifth Heaven, and every sect was wary of others and afraid that they would be attacked.
The white mass shot toward them at a speed surpassing the Nascent Soul Realm; it was almost as fast as the Soul Formation Realm cultivators.
Before the two cultivators could release a warning to the sect, Hao Ren had passed the gate. The grand array formation that had just been re-established couldn't block the level 5 Little White, and Hao Ren didn't even sense the existence of the array formation.
It was easy to rebuild the houses but not array formations. The grand array formation that protected Sky Mountains Sect had just been barely put up and thus was as fragile as an eggshell compared with the previous array formation. It couldn't block any Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. Instead, it acted as a warning system.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Three Nascent Soul Realm cultivators instantly flew out from the Scroll Pavilion. When they saw that the intruders were Hao Ren and his two female cultivators, they immediately turned respectful.
When they saw that Hao Ren had reached mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm, they were astonished.
They had thought that Hao Ren was the senior disciple of the Herb King Master, but now they began to suspect that this youthful-looking cultivator was the Herb King Master himself!
"He probably is living as a hermit on Fifth Heaven due to a huge realm drop either caused by an injury or a secret technique..." the three Nascent Soul Realm cultivators thought while they welcomed Hao Ren respectfully.
"I need several 10,000-year-old Black Herbs. It's said that there are some on Seventh Heaven, right?" Hao Ren asked directly.
After the three Nascent Soul Realm cultivator looked at each other, one of them said, "Herb King Master, you might find the 10,000-year-old Black Herbs in the Black Herb Spiritual Field in the Mystic Sound Faction on Seventh Heaven."
"Ok." Hao Ren nodded. "Who will show me the way?"
Hearing Hao Ren's request, the three Nascent Soul Realm cultivators looked at each other again.
It was already very risky to give out information about Seventh Heaven. If they led the Herb King Master to take the spiritual herbs from Seventh Heaven, it would be... After all, Seventh Heaven was backed by Soul Formation Realm cultivators!
"Master, what can we do for you?" Lingwu Master in a red Taoist robe came from the back mountain while riding on the level 6 snow lion, Jitian.
Sensing that a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator had come to Sky Mountain Sect, he immediately came out to see who it was and saw it was the VIP, Hao Ren.
"I want to borrow several 10,000-year-old Black Herbs from Seventh Heaven. Which disciple can show me the way?" Hao Ren asked him.
"This..." Lingwu Master looked hesitant when he heard this request.
"If it's not convenient, you can just tell me the direction," Hao Ren said directly, not wanting to waste time.
"I have connections with Mystic Sound Faction. I'll go with you." Lingwu Master gritted his teeth and said.
The three Nascent Soul Realm cultivators all looked at him in shock.
The rules on Seventh Heaven were stricter than those on Sixth Heaven, and no cultivator of Sixth Heaven was allowed onto Seventh Heaven without permission.
Due to his previous realm of peak Nascent Soul Realm, Lingwu Master had been occasionally called up to Seventh Heaven, but his movements were restricted within certain areas.
Now that Sky Mountain Sect had been beaten into such a pathetic state, and Lingwu Master's realm had dropped to a low realm, the sects on Seventh Heaven didn't show any reaction.
If Lingwu Master tried to bring other cultivators onto Seventh Heaven, it would be...
However, the ancient-looking Lingwu Master had his own ideas. He had thought that the Herb King Master was a cultivator from Seventh Heaven who had gone to live as a hermit on Fifth Heaven for some reason. However, Hao Ren's unfamiliarity with Seventh Heaven meant only one thing in his mind - the Herb King Master was a cultivator from Eighth Heaven!
He never imagined that Hao Ren, who could use the five-elemental cultivation technique, wasn't a cultivator above Fifth Heaven but a cultivator on land!
"Ok! Let's go!" Without hesitation, Hao Ren patted Little White's head and turned toward the gate of Sky Mountain Sect.
