"How is this possible?"
At this moment, this thought flashed across the hearts of almost all the geniuses from the Southwest region while they were still in shock.
To be able to reach the Golden Core realm before the age of twenty is already a genius, but to reach the Dharma Idol before the age of twenty? This was something that no one dared to imagine! Even the group of Appearance Mantra cultivators had looks of disbelief on their faces. Even though they had already prepared themselves, they knew that with the strength of the people of the Southwest Region, they wouldn't have much of a harvest.
However, at this moment, when they saw more than a hundred Aurous Core stage cultivators and saw the two Aurous Core stage cultivators Xiao Ya and Xue Jinpeng, the only ones present, all of them had bitter expressions on their faces.
In particular, those at the Appearance Mantra cultivators who had not made any progress or had low longevity for many years had a dark look appear in their eyes. It was obvious that they were not optimistic about the trip to the Heavenly Emperor Tomb in the Southwest Region.
At this moment, the lips of the one in the Dharma Idol suddenly twitched. He wanted to say something, but when he looked at the seemingly calm True Lord Raging Blade, he secretly sighed and shook his head.
Everyone understood what he was planning to do after pondering for a moment. At that moment, a white-haired, slightly withered looking middle stage cultivator, who looked like he was in the process of withering, looked at True Lord Raging Blade and asked, "Master Raging Blade, do you know where your disciple, Fang Ling, is? "If Fang Ling were to enter the Heavenly Emperor's tomb, he would definitely be able to benefit our Southwest Region Alliance!"
"That's right!" This old man knows that the Alliance's previous actions have made you somewhat dissatisfied with us, but the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb is related to the prosperity of the entire Southwest Region Alliance.
Another cultivator in the early phase of the Dharma Idol also spoke up.
As the two of them spoke, all of the Dharma Idol cultivators who were originally looking at the list looked towards the Raging Blade True Lord, hoping for him to find Fang Ling and bring him to the Heavenly Emperor's Tomb.
Even though Fang Ling had only appeared for less than a day, he had still managed to defeat the Jindan Stage Late Phase Yuan Hao Ming and Yang Yuanyi. Furthermore, he had calmly left in front of the two half-step Nascent Soul Stage cultivators. Even if the rumors said that Fang Ling used some kind of secret method, his real strength was probably at the Appearance Mantra!
With this kind of strength, if he entered the Heavenly Emperor's tomb, not only would he not sweep through it, he would also be able to contend against those at the Manifestation Realm. Previously, everyone thought of Fang Ling, but unfortunately, Fang Ling had escaped into the void turbulence, so no one knew where he had gone to.
However, Fang Ling was taken away by the Raging Blade Master to be his disciple, so he should have had some means to pass on the information to Fang Ling. However, because of the matter of forcing Fang Ling to hand over the cultivation technique and sealing the Raging Blade Master, it made everyone feel guilty and embarrassed to bring it up.
However, now that they saw this list of geniuses and knew that it was impossible for them to obtain the treasures that everyone was looking forward to, these Appearance Mantra cultivators could no longer resist and turned to True Lord Raging Blade.
When the Red Cloud duo said such words in front of the crowd of genius cultivators, the faces of the cultivators that followed Xue Jinpeng immediately changed, looking rather unsightly. Could it be that the meaning behind those words was that the two of us were inferior to Fang Ling?
Of course, these people had heard of Fang Ling. However, during this year, news had spread that Fang Ling's previous achievements were due to the use of forbidden drugs, and he had not appeared for more than a year. It was precisely because of the side effects of forbidden drugs that Fang Ling hid in the dark to heal his wounds.
Therefore, these people felt disdain towards Fang Ling. However, looking at the expressions of these Appearance Manipulation Realm cultivators, it was obvious that they believed that they did not have Fang Ling to rely on. This naturally caused their hearts to be unable to calm down and they did not dare to complain about these Appearance Manipulation Realm cultivators.
A fierce light flashed across Xue Jinpeng's eyes, along with a fleeting killing intent.
As for Xiao Ya and the rest, their expressions were much calmer. They had personally witnessed the battle on Wu Dao Peak and clearly understood why Fang Ling did not use the Forbidden Medicine. Naturally, they understood the reason why these Appearance Manipulation Realm cultivators were so concerned about Fang Ling.
Under the gazes of all the Appearance Mantra cultivators, True Lord Raging Blade could only smile bitterly in his heart, feeling rather depressed. He wanted to take her as a disciple, but the problem was that she didn't even want him.
Moreover, half a year ago, the Raging Blade Master had wanted to contact Fang Ling. However, he found that he could not contact him at all, and he did not even know where that bastard was hiding. However, he could not say any of these things as it was a matter of losing face. Although True Lord Raging Blade looked wild and unrestrained, after reaching the Manifestation Realm, sometimes face was more important than anything.
Therefore, True Lord Raging Blade pretended not to hear him and continued to sit there cross-legged until even Xiao Han Shan's gaze landed on him. A helpless smile appeared on his face as he slowly opened his eyes and prepared to explain the truth to the crowd, but then, his expression suddenly froze as a hint of joy appeared on his face.
With a flip of his hand, a message jade slip appeared in his palm. He then smiled and said, "Since the two of you speak in such a manner, it wouldn't make sense if I, Wild Blade, didn't see the bigger picture. I will change into a message to Fang Ling."
At the same time, not far from the Nine-edged Manor, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky. Immediately after, Fang Ling's figure appeared in the sky.
He saw that Fang Ling was wearing a navy long robe with his long hair tied behind his head. He did not wear any accessories, but it made him look ethereal and free. The corner of his mouth revealed a faint smile, giving him a unique disposition.
At this moment, Fang Ling's aura had become much more reserved. It was evident that he had gained quite a lot this year. Although his cultivation was still at the late stage of the Dao Embryo Stage, his strength had increased by a lot.
With a wave of his hand, a flying sword appeared in front of him. Just as Fang Ling was about to board the flying ship and head towards the 12 cities' White Jade Tower, his expression suddenly changed to that of shock.
"You damned brat, you're finally willing to give up! There is only three months until the opening of the Heavenly Emperor's tomb, and we will be leaving in half a month. If you want to go, then you must return to the Southwest Alliance on time. "
Although the Raging Blade True Lord's words seemed to contain anger, Fang Ling could feel a sense of care from it. A hint of warmth appeared in Fang Ling's eyes as he sent the message into the message jade slip.
"On time!"
When the Raging Blade True Lord received this message, a smile appeared on his face and he relaxed. He then raised his head and said, "This kid said that he will be back on time in half a month."
This scene had undoubtedly made Xue Jinpeng even more infuriated. He suddenly glanced around and saw Xiao Ya, whom he admired, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. However, Xue Jinpeng could not take it any longer and snorted coldly, disregarding the crowd of Appearance Manipulation Realm cultivators present and turned to leave.
As for those unfamiliar genius cultivators, they slightly hesitated. Just as they were about to follow Xue Jinpeng and leave, they heard the cold snort of their master. Those steps suddenly stopped and a hint of fear appeared on their faces.
After Xue Jinpeng left the Enforcement Hall, his eyes were filled with a dark ruthlessness and he no longer hid his killing intent. He muttered to himself, "Fang Ling? You just wait for this young master, there can only be one genius in this southwest region! You are destined to be the stepping stone for this young master, and Xiao Ya can only be this young master's woman! "
