Top-tier Unruly Master-Chapter 1765 - 1802: Gloomy Sky Mountain Range

At this moment, Ding Fan discerned from Cheng Xu’s words that it seemed the Wild Wolf Gang possessed some method to cultivate Divine Vigor. Upon hearing this, Ding Fan’s hair stood on end involuntarily, knowing well that such Divine Vigor could only be cultivated by a divine warrior.

Why does the Wild Wolf Gang also have a method to cultivate Divine Vigor? As this thought crossed his mind, a startling idea emerged in Ding Fan’s mind. However, at this moment, the main task for Ding Fan was to first understand the location of the Wild Wolf Gang and its Sect.

"So that’s how it is. Does this mean that a portion of the people in the Wild Wolf Gang, including the leader, possess this Divine Vigor?"

Ding Fan squinted his eyes fiercely and stared at Cheng Xu before him, speaking softly.

Having heard Ding Fan’s question, Cheng Xu nodded vigorously and then said very earnestly to Ding Fan:

"That’s correct, Senior. In our Wild Wolf Gang, apart from the leader, even the twelve elders of the Council possess the cultivation method for such power, which seems to be the Divine Vigor you mentioned."

Upon hearing this, Ding Fan nodded slowly, then turned to look at the surrounding elders of the Thirty-Six Caves. A gentle voice slowly emanated from Ding Fan’s lips:

"Dear elders, now that we have Cheng Xu captured, and we are clear about the location of the Wild Wolf Gang, I decide to first contact Long Ren over there, discuss with him, and then make further decisions."

The elders standing beside Ding Fan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing his words. Truth be told, they were truly afraid that Ding Fan might rashly charge into the Wild Wolf Gang. Given their limited manpower, they would not be a match for the Wild Wolf Gang. Even the twelve elders in the Wild Wolf Gang would likely be enough to keep Ding Fan occupied for a while.

"Senior Ding, we will follow your lead. You are the Lake Master’s elder brother, and your orders are the Lake Master’s orders."

Everyone clasped their fists before Ding Fan and spoke very respectfully. Throughout this journey, they admired Ding Fan to the utmost. Despite his young age, this elder brother of the Lake Master is understated with decisive strategies and harbors many inscrutable secrets.

If before they were merely respectful to Ding Fan, now they genuinely admire him. The methods and intellect displayed by this young man were worthy of their praise.

"Good! Then let me thank you all. Now, let’s divide into two teams: one team shall report our situation to Long Ren, and the other team will follow me to scout the vicinity of the Wild Wolf Gang."

The elders at this moment listened to Ding Fan’s words and furrowed their brows tightly. Reporting the news to Long Ren wasn’t dangerous after all; they were all elders of the Thirty-Six Caves, masters of the Divine Splitting stage, unlikely to encounter danger on the way.

But investigating near the Wild Wolf Gang, this was the concern weighing in the elders’ hearts. Given what Cheng Xu just mentioned, the strength of the Wild Wolf Gang exceeded everyone’s expectations. If they went there alone, who knows how perilous it could be.

"Senior Ding! I will go with you, no matter what. Senior Ding has taken good care of us on this journey, and Senior Ding’s means and mind are top-notch. I trust Senior Ding!"

As he spoke, an elder slowly stepped forward, his eyes filled with admiration and trust towards Ding Fan.

This elder was one of the three who had always been by Ding Fan’s side. Because they had been with Ding Fan the longest, they understood him better.

After spending so much time with him, they knew Ding Fan never fought a battle he was unprepared for. Since Ding Fan had already decided to investigate near the Wild Wolf Gang, he must have had some plan in mind.

Out of his trust in Ding Fan, this elder stepped forward slowly, and after him, the surrounding elders exchanged glances, then collectively took a step forward.

"Senior Ding, we’re willing to follow you to explore near the Wild Wolf Gang!"

At this moment, Ding Fan looked at the crowd’s reaction, feeling a wave of comfort in his heart. Honestly, he knew what they were afraid of, but there’s no choice. To achieve victory, sometimes sacrifices have to be made.

At this moment, after a moment of contemplation, Ding Fan slowly said to everyone:

"Gentlemen, Ding Fan appreciates your goodwill, but someone must inform Long Ren. He and I must unite to completely eradicate the Wild Wolf Gang."

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, the elders immediately fell silent. Honestly, delivering a message is something anyone can do. They all wanted to stay by Ding Fan’s side at this moment to witness a different horizon.

Seeing no one speaking at this moment, Ding Fan slightly raised the corner of his mouth, pointed at the oldest elder, then said with extreme respect:

"Elder She, I think this time you should help us deliver the message!"

At this moment, Elder She, whom Ding Fan had pointed out, furrowed his brows tightly and then said very reluctantly to Ding Fan:

"Senior Ding, why should I, the old man, go? So many elders are standing here. Are you bullying me for my age, Senior Ding?"

Upon hearing Elder She’s words, Ding Fan showed a gentle smile on his face, slighting raising the corner of his mouth as he slowly said to Elder She:

"Elder She, you’re overthinking it. Elder She is the oldest among us, how could I, Ding Fan, not be aware of this?"

"But among all the elders present, only you, Elder She, are the most steady, and the most reassuring in handling matters. I worry that if someone else talks about this, they might misinterpret my meaning."

At this moment, after hearing Ding Fan’s words, Elder She immediately displayed a pleased smile. To be honest, Ding Fan has mastered Elder She’s personality very skillfully. He knew that if he mentioned the elder’s age directly, it would make Elder She furious. However, by subtly complimenting him, it greatly pleased Elder She, making the task easy.

"Hahaha, I love hearing such words from Senior Ding. If I, Lao She, don’t handle this task personally, I truly wouldn’t be at ease with anyone else taking it on. So then, allow me to deliver the message!"

As he spoke, Elder She’s face was filled with a broad smile, and the wrinkles on his face gathered together as he slightly puffed out his chest with pride, and walked off into the distance.

Watching Elder She gradually move further away, Ding Fan’s lips curled into a subtle arch, pausing slightly before turning to look at the many elders from the Thirty-Six Caves standing beside him.

"Elders, now that Elder She has gone to deliver the message, would you be willing to join me in investigating the Wild Wolf Gang?"

After hearing Ding Fan’s words, all the elders clasped their hands slightly in respect and said to Ding Fan with great respect:

"We are willing to go!"

Ding Fan nodded in satisfaction, his eyes narrowing to resemble crescent moons, and then turned to glance at Cheng Xu with a mysterious smile on his lips.

"Let’s go! Take us to see what the Wild Wolf Gang is all about—I’ve been old friends with them for a long time now..."

Saying this, Ding Fan grabbed Cheng Xu and started moving swiftly, while the little girl who had been chased by Cheng Xu earlier was now looking in the direction Ding Fan and his group went with an expression of admiration.

The Gloomy Sky Mountain is a very secretive mountain range in the Cultivation World. Many powerful and enigmatic Yuan Beasts reside in these mountains. Some cultivators have claimed to have seen four eight-legged powerful Yuan Beasts within the Gloomy Sky Mountain.

At this time, Ding Fan and his group stood at the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range, looking at the vast expanse of lush green mountains before them. Ding Fan felt a sense of yearning within his heart.

He didn’t know why, but in these verdant mountains, there seemed to be a mysterious power drawing him in, making him and his companions unconsciously want to delve into this mysterious mountain range to explore.

"Is the Wild Wolf Gang nearby?"

At this moment, Ding Fan looked at Cheng Xu in his hand and asked in confusion. Honestly, Ding Fan found it hard to imagine that the renowned Wild Wolf Gang would establish their sect deep in these mountains. The most crucial thing was that this Gloomy Sky Mountain is no ordinary mountain range. Once called the graveyard of cultivators.

It was evident that the Gloomy Sky Mountain was fraught with danger. At this moment, Ding Fan’s eyes were as cold as frost, staring intently at the distant mountains. The powerful Divine Sense he sent out could only probe a distance of about ten meters, and even with Ding Fan’s tremendously strong Divine Sense, he gained nothing beyond that.

"Senior Ding, there is something strange about this mountain range."

The elders standing beside Ding Fan looked at him, their eyes filled with seriousness. To be honest, everyone present was a powerful cultivator with many means. However, when they released their own divine senses just now, they found they couldn’t probe very far.

At this moment, Ding Fan’s brow furrowed too. He didn’t know why, but there was always a bad premonition lingering in his heart within these Gloomy Sky Mountains, making him very agitated.

"Everyone, be careful. We’re getting closer to the Wild Wolf Gang. Until Long Ren and they arrive with the main force, act cautiously and try not to provoke any unnecessary trouble!"

After listening to Ding Fan’s words, the elders also nodded slowly. To be honest, from the moment they entered the Gloomy Sky Mountain Range, all the elders’ nerves were tense. After all, they were already extremely close to the Wild Wolf Gang’s heartland. If they let their guard down now, they wouldn’t know how they’d die.

"Cheng Xu, tell us, how should we proceed into the Wild Wolf Gang?"

Listening to Ding Fan’s words, Cheng Xu’s lips twitched. To be honest, leading Ding Fan and the others to the Wild Wolf Gang was something he was very reluctant to do. It’s not that Cheng Xu had a deep love for the sect, but once the people inside the Wild Wolf Gang found out, his fate would be very miserable.

At that time, even if Ding Fan didn’t end his existence, all the elders and disciples in the Wild Wolf Gang would fight tooth and nail to kill him.

Thinking of this, Cheng Xu stared directly at Ding Fan, but at this moment, he remained silent, as if he had become mute.

"What are you doing? Cheng Xu, I’m talking to you. Are you pretending not to hear? I’m warning you, don’t force me to use force."

Saying this, Ding Fan increased the strength of his grip slightly, causing a crunching sound from Cheng Xu’s bones.

"Don’t... please, I’m wrong. I’ll tell you, but once you reach the place, you must release me!"
