Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 449: Microcosm

Gazing at the vast land before them, Meng Zhang couldn't help but exclaim, "Primordial Spirit True Monarch of Purple Gold Sect is truly skilled. They can create such a place out of thin air in the void."

Gu Yue Huaidie, who came from a scholarly background, had a deeper understanding of the Primordial Spirit True Monarch's methods. She shook her head and said, "The predecessor of Purple Gold Sect didn't create this land out of thin air. They probably discovered this floating land in the void and then used various means to modify and transform it, thus creating this small world."

"Even so, the abilities of this senior are extraordinary," added Daoist Master Luo Ye.

The three of them had no intention of arguing over meaningless questions; instead, they began discussing how to enter the small world and find the treasures left behind by Purple Gold Sect.

The main purpose of the senior of Purple Gold Sect in constructing this small world was probably to leave something behind, hoping that after the sect's destruction, future generations could revitalize Purple Gold Sect and rise again.

This land was immensely vast, and the treasures of Purple Gold Sect were hidden within it, making it unlikely to be found in a short time.

Daoist Master Jin Li was helping them with great dedication, and she had warned them beforehand. The three of them were well aware that more competitors would soon arrive.

Since they were not descendants of Purple Gold Sect, they naturally lacked any information advantage.

Without clear clues, rushing into the land ahead would not only expose them to various dangers but also reduce their chances of finding Purple Gold Sect's treasures ahead of others.

When Meng Zhang and Daoist Master Luo Ye felt a bit helpless, Gu Yue Huaidie secretly began using divination to make calculations.

Of course, Gu Yue Huaidie wasn't calculating the specific information about the treasures; she was trying to figure out the most suitable course of action for the three of them.

Gu Yue Huaidie's divination was taking place at close quarters, and Meng Zhang naturally sensed it. However, he remained calm, as if he hadn't noticed anything.

After a while, Gu Yue Huaidie finally arrived at a conclusion.

"We'd better not rush into this land immediately. Waiting for a while will yield twice the result with half the effort."

"You're right. We should find a way to hide ourselves and avoid leaving any traces."

Among the three, Gu Yue Huaidie had the strongest cultivation base, the oldest age, and the broadest knowledge. Most of the time, Meng Zhang and Daoist Master Luo Ye respected her opinions.

Daoist Master Luo Ye took out a pitch-black handkerchief and gestured for Meng Zhang and Gu Yue Huaidie to come closer.

Once they gathered, Luo Ye casually threw the handkerchief into the air. It expanded and enveloped all three of them.

Then, with the handkerchief wrapping around them, the three individuals disappeared from their original spot.

No matter if one tried to probe with Divine Sense or use eye-based Divine Abilities, they wouldn't find a trace.

After an unknown amount of time, Daoist Masters Fei Jiang and Fei Yu from Flying Swan Sect hurriedly flew toward the location.

Behind them, two people were closely chasing after them. They were Daoist Masters Dark Flame and Angry Flame from Fire Cloud Sect.

Upon arriving here and seeing the land ahead shrouded in black mist, all four of them involuntarily slowed their pace and eventually came to a stop.

"Why are you two not running? Keep running!" sneered Daoist Master Angry Flame.

Fei Jiang, Daoist Master, roared and was about to charge forward, but Fei Yu, Daoist Master, stopped him in time. "There are many opponents entering here; it's not the time to engage with them."

Across from them, Daoist Master Dark Flame also transmitted his voice secretly to Daoist Master Angry Flame. "Our purpose for coming here is the treasures left by Purple Gold Sect, not to entangle with those two."

"We'll have plenty of opportunities to deal with them later. Now, let's focus on the main task."

The small world was right in front of them, and all four of them restrained their impulse to attack and pondered how to enter and obtain the treasures left by Purple Gold Sect.

Flying Swan Sect had been the vanguard in the destruction of Purple Gold Sect back in the day. As the final victor, they occupied the mountain gate of Purple Gold Sect. Although many important buildings like the Hidden Scripture Pavilion and the treasury were destroyed by Purple Gold Sect cultivators before the gate was breached, Flying Swan Sect still seized many spoils and salvaged a considerable number of remaining items.

Over the next few hundred years, Flying Swan Sect spared no effort in hunting down the remnants of Purple Gold Sect. With the covert guidance of Primordial Spirit True Monarch, True Monarch Tian Zhu, they were highly successful in eliminating many Purple Gold Sect cultivators.

By various means, they pried open the mouths of captives and obtained a lot of information, including details about this small world.

Additionally, Fire Cloud Sect had also made a significant invasion into the Endless Sea of Sand in the past. After the fall of Purple Gold Sect, they, too, managed to uncover some of Purple Gold Sect's secrets.

Fire Cloud Sect was not clueless about the small world before them.

The target was right before their eyes, and all four of them were becoming somewhat impatient.

Fei Jiang Daoist Master and Fei Yu Daoist Master were the first to enter the void. Although they knew in advance about the trap that awaited them, they lacked the means of Gu Yue Huaidie and Luo Ye to deal with it, not to mention the formidable spiritual weapon like the Spiritsnake Spear.

It took them some time to break free from the trap successfully.

The two Daoist Masters from Fire Cloud Sect entered later, but their techniques were evidently more sophisticated. They escaped from the trap with little effort.

When they reunited with their respective companions, the four encountered each other by chance, leading to the subsequent chase.

Fei Jiang Daoist Master and Fei Yu Daoist Master were running ahead, not because they were genuinely afraid of Daoist Master Dark Flame and Daoist Master Angry Flame, but because they didn't want to waste time on meaningless battles.

Based on their knowledge of the Purple Gold Sect's small world, being the first to enter would grant them a significant advantage.

However, since they hadn't been able to shake off Daoist Master Dark Flame and Daoist Master Angry Flame on the way, Fei Jiang Daoist Master and Fei Yu Daoist Master hesitated to directly enter the small world, fearing it might reveal crucial information.

Both groups refrained from taking direct action due to their respective concerns and chose to wait instead.

After a while, the two Daoist Masters from Flying Swan Sect grew impatient and didn't want to wait any longer. While they were the first to enter the void, they had no idea how many other cultivators were coming behind them. Since the cultivators from Fire Cloud Sect were already present, it was likely that more were on their way.

Fei Yu Daoist Master cast a spell, causing numerous rays of light to shimmer around them. Taking advantage of the distraction, he and Fei Jiang Daoist Master swiftly rushed into the black mist enveloping the land.

The two Daoist Masters from Fire Cloud Sect hesitated for a moment before choosing another direction to plunge into the black mist.
