Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 454: Having a strong beginning but a weak ending

As for staying inside this small world, that is not an acceptable choice. In this place, not even a Third Rank spirit vein exists, and Gold Core Daoist Masters cannot maintain their daily cultivation, let alone elevate their Cultivation Base. Moreover, everyone here in the Grand Dust World has a lot of matters to attend to. Staying away from the Grand Dust World for too long can lead to significant problems.

Especially for Meng Zhang, being a Sect Master, if trapped in this place, what would happen to the Taiyi Sect? Thinking about this, Meng Zhang's heart wavered, and he considered withdrawing. Opportunities can be sought later, and there are many ways to supplement the deficiencies in their own cultivation; there is no need to struggle here.

Meng Zhang glanced at everyone and found that their thoughts were similar. Even Golden Tiger Demon General from the Purple Gold Sect, who desired the sect's inheritance the most, was evidently unwilling to be trapped here. Therefore, both humans and demonic beasts took flight, preparing to leave this small world.

The commotion was substantial, and the marks established by the Great Void Restriction slowly disappeared, which was evident. After a while, one Gold Core Daoist Master after another flew up from the land and rushed outward.

A large group of Gold Core Daoist Masters swiftly left the small world, taking advantage of the marks that had not completely disappeared, following the marks' guidance to exit the void at the fastest speed. Along the way, these Gold Core Daoist Masters occasionally encountered each other.

Regardless of whether they knew each other before or had old grudges, at this moment, they had no intention of entangling with one another. Instead, they hurriedly flew towards the direction they came from.

Following the marks' guidance, these Gold Core Daoist Masters flew all the way to the end of the marks. There, a thin light shield enveloped a massive gateway.

Several impatient Gold Core Daoist Masters took successive actions and broke the light shield in a few moves, revealing the gateway behind it. According to the marks' guidance, this was the passage to leave the void.

Everyone did not hesitate any longer and jumped into it, including Meng Zhang and his group.

After another bout of dizziness and disorientation, Meng Zhang tumbled out of the black hole and returned to the Mirage Desert's sky.

Quite a few Gold Core Daoist Masters also emerged after him. After coming out, they quickly recovered and formed various teams.

The upheaval of the Great Void Restriction had long alarmed Jin Li, the female Daoist Master. She was a bit anxious but couldn't rush in to investigate.

When she saw Meng Zhang and the others come out, she flew over quickly to inquire about the situation.

In fact, most of the present Gold Core Daoist Masters didn't know precisely what had happened. They only felt the marks starting to disappear and worried about being trapped in the void, so they hurriedly escaped.

These Gold Core Daoist Masters didn't rush to leave but stayed nearby, hoping to get some new information.

Meng Zhang and the others gathered around Jin Li, the female Daoist Master, and recounted everything that happened with the Purple Gold Sect's Primordial Spirit True Monarch wisp of soul they encountered.

After hearing this, Jin Li, the female Daoist Master, was also greatly surprised. Such a situation was indeed beyond her expectations.

"It seems that the upheaval in the Great Void Restriction was caused by that wisp of soul," she said. "It's truly unexpected that even after so long, a Primordial Spirit True Monarch from the Purple Gold Sect left behind a wisp of soul."

Jin Li, the female Daoist Master, sighed and expressed her thoughts.

Many years ago, this senior had already exhausted their lifespan and died during meditation. Based on Meng Zhang and the others' description, Daoist Master Jin Li deduced that the wisp of soul belonged to the last Primordial Spirit True Monarch of the Purple Gold Sect, True Monarch Vermilion. Back then, True Monarch Vermilion led a group of Gold Core Daoist Masters from the sect and intervened in the conflict between True Monarch Tian Zhu and that Fifth Rank great power.

As the only Primordial Spirit True Monarch in the Purple Gold Sect at the time, True Monarch Vermilion had left behind many contingencies before taking action to ensure that even if he failed, the sect's heritage would remain intact. After his fall, most of these contingencies were deciphered by the Flying Swan Sect. However, he unexpectedly left behind a wisp of soul in that small world. Such a contingency truly caught True Monarch Tian Zhu off guard.

According to the terms of the bet between True Monarch Tian Zhu and the Fifth Rank great power, the winner would be decided based on who obtained the Purple Gold Sect's inheritance. Now, with this unexpected variable, the bet might not proceed.

Although the Gold Core Daoist Masters present had gained some rewards in that small world, it was far from enough to inherit the Purple Gold Sect's legacy. Could it be that this bet would be considered a draw due to the lack of a clear winner? Daoist Master Jin Li wondered.

While Meng Zhang and his group were conversing with Daoist Master Jin Li, the black hole disappeared completely along with intense tremors. The various nodes of the Great Void Restriction gradually returned to calm, and all anomalies disappeared as the great formation closed entirely.

Without the guidance of the Great Void Restriction, the group of Gold Core Daoist Masters had no way to find the Purple Gold Sect's small world in the vast void. Daoist Master Jin Li felt a headache due to the unexpected situation, and she had no good way to handle it. She could only report the situation here to True Monarch Tian Zhu and await his instructions.

During their conversation, Meng Zhang and his group didn't deliberately keep things confidential, and everyone present basically overheard their discussion. It seemed that they could forget about getting involved with the Purple Gold Sect's small world.

Seeing Daoist Master Jin Li's displeased expression, the group of Gold Core Daoist Masters was unwilling to continue staying here and quickly departed. If they couldn't touch the Purple Gold Sect's small world for now, they certainly didn't want to remain in this troublesome place. Especially the Golden Fox Demon General and Dark Crow Demon General, they ran the fastest, as if they were fleeing for their lives, quickly escaping the area.

As Third Rank demon beasts amidst a group of human Gold Core Daoist Masters, they felt immense pressure. For the Gold Core Daoist Masters, the corpses of Third Rank demon beasts were a considerable wealth. Moreover, the one who released True Monarch Vermilion's wisp of soul was the Golden Tiger Demon General, who was very worried about the group of human cultivators, including Daoist Master Jin Li, directing their anger towards him.

Fortunately, everyone's emotions were currently unsettled, and they didn't have time to focus on the two Third Rank demon beasts. Daoist Master Jin Li exchanged a few words with Meng Zhang, not bothering to retrieve her flying sword and Heavenly Thunder child that she lent to him, and hastily left.

She needed to report everything that happened here to True Monarch Tian Zhu as soon as possible and listen to his next instructions. After a brief chat, Meng Zhang and his group also left and returned to the Taiyi Sect.

With everyone dispersing, this adventure that had been brewing for a long time, with much preparation, ended like a damp squib.
