Chapter 105: Information Leaked

“Fellow Daoist of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect?”

This legacy disciple of the Dao Seeking Sect sensed Qi Ming’s arrival and raised his head to look at him. He cupped his hands slightly and bowed to Qi Ming, “Why don’t you come down and have a chat?”

“A legacy disciple of the Dao Seeking Sect?”

Qi Ming accepted the invitation and stopped riding the clouds. He descended from the sky and stood in front of the Dao Seeking Sect legacy disciple, “You arrived so quickly.”

“I was just lucky.”

The legacy disciple of the Dao Seeking Sect smiled and explained, “I’m Dao Junchen. I’m a legacy disciple of the Dao Seeking Sect. Do I have the honor to know your name?”

“Dao Junchen.”

Qi Ming muttered and sized up the other party. He had a handsome face, well-defined facial features, and a sharp face. He was quite handsome and could be said to be a rare handsome man. Qi Ming also smiled, “You were just lucky?”

Qi Ming also liked to use ‘lucky’ to answer questions that he did not want to answer. This legacy disciple of the Dao Seeking Sect called Dao Junchen seemed to have such a hobby.

It was not a hobby.

It was a method and habit to deal with problems.

“Yes.”

Dao Junchen nodded. “I was indeed lucky. I happened to pass through the spatial passageway in the sect and arrived near the gap of the ancient grotto-heaven.”

“Fellow Daoist, you haven’t introduced yourself yet.”

“I’m Qi Ming.” Qi Ming said, “A legacy disciple of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.”

“Fellow Daoist Qi Ming.” Dao Junchen cupped his hands and bowed again.

Qi Ming returned the greeting, “Daoist Dao Junchen.”

“It’s fate that we met. Why don’t we explore this ancient grotto-heaven together?” Dao Junchen suddenly suggested, “Even the elders in the sect don’t know the exact situation inside this ancient grotto-heaven, but it sucked up the entire Chang River overnight.”

“In the Chang River, there are many demons living there, including many powerful demons who have already broken through to the Nascent Soul realm, but they are still sucked in without any ability to resist.”

“From this, it can be seen that this ancient grotto-heaven is not a safe place. Even if there are not many dangers in the ancient grotto-heaven, the Greater Demons that were swept into the Chang River are not easy to deal with.”

“If we can travel together, we can definitely help each other.”

From the beginning to the end, this legacy disciple from the Dao Seeking Sect, Dao Junchen, did not show any hostility. Instead, he wanted to rope Qi Ming in to explore the ancient grotto-heaven.

He was very friendly.

He did not seem like a competitor.

“No need.”

Qi Ming said, “We’re not disciples of the same sect to begin with. If we want to travel together, I prefer to find my fellow disciples. Moreover, if I go with you and let my fellow disciples see, it’ll probably be difficult to explain.”

“It’s the same for you and me.”

“Fellow Daoist, this is a small matter. I don’t care about this.” Dao Junchen shook his head.

“I care.” Qi Ming said.

“Fellow Daoist.” Dao Junchen immediately said, “We hit it off at first sight. How can we be affected by such a small matter?”

“I’ll go first.”

Qi Ming ignored Dao Junchen and walked towards the crack in front of him. He jumped down and quickly fell. Not long after, he saw the ‘gap’ at the bottom.

The gap was not big.

It was an irregular oval.

It was about three meters in diameter.

Crystal-like crystals could be seen at the edge.

At all times, spiritual qi surged out.

Moreover…

An invisible restriction enveloped the gap, limiting the entry of existences above the Nascent Soul realm. Qi Ming only sized it up a few times before entering this gap.

“Fellow Daoist.”

Dao Junchen chased after him and saw that Qi Ming had already entered. He shouted, “Wait for me.”

Swish!

Dao Junchen followed closely.

Time passed.

Not long after, more and more legacy disciples of the twelve peaks of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect and the legacy disciples of the Dao Seeking Sect’s twelve palaces arrived one after another and entered the ancient grotto-heaven.

During this period, some legacy disciples of the twelve peaks of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect and the legacy disciples of the Dao Seeking Sect’s twelve palaces had a conflict. They even fought.

Neither side gained much advantage.

Half a day later, the legacy disciples of the Dao Seeking Sect’s twelve palaces and the legacy disciples of the twelve peaks of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect had already found the gap of the ancient grotto-heaven and entered it.

However, something bigger happened.

Because the news had already been leaked.

The scene changed.

In the Southern Region.

Ten Thousand Buddha Temple.

“Amitabha.”

The heads of the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple gathered. They had just received news that an ancient grotto-heaven had appeared at the border between the Southern Region and the Eastern Region.

This was a huge matter.

It attracted the attention of the entire Ten Thousand Buddha Temple’s Monks and Buddhas.

“The Chang River event happened 38 years ago. Because the Chang River event was in the mortal world under the jurisdiction of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, we were unable to know the exact situation at that time.”

“However, I can confirm that the matter regarding the ancient grotto-heaven is absolutely true.”

“The ancient grotto-heaven has a restriction that doesn’t allow cultivators above the Nascent Soul realm to enter. We definitely can’t go over. Moreover, if we go over, we will immediately be discovered by the Grand Elders of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.”

“Pass down the order. Let the Buddha Children go.”

“We have to snatch this ancient grotto-heaven’s opportunity. At the very least, we have to have a share of the loot.”

“Okay.”

“It’s decided.”

“…”

The leaders of the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple settled the matter.

Then, they began to move.

It was not only the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple.

Spring Autumn Sect, Myriad Demon Cave, and the Demon Court.

All of them received news about the ancient grotto-heaven. Moreover, after they obtained accurate information, they also sent their sect’s legacy disciples to Chang River.

For a moment, the entire Southern Region was stirred.

Most importantly…

In the Eastern Region, the Four Seas Dragon Palace, the Divine Spirit Court, and the Demon Immortal Sect.

The three sects of the same level as the Dao Seeking Sect had also obtained the news of the ancient grotto-heaven. They acted immediately and sent legacy disciples.

The ancient grotto-heaven had already become the center of this storm.

As for how the news was leaked.

First, the Heaven Enlightenment Sect had spies from the Spring Autumn Sect, the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, and even the Myriad Demon Cave. They hid very deeply. Of course, the Heaven Enlightenment Sect also had disciples hiding in the Spring Autumn Sect, the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, and the Myriad Demon Cave.

Both sides were infiltrated.

They restrained each other.

As for the Eastern Region…

The situation of the Dao Seeking Sect was also very different from the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.

The ancient grotto-heaven was important.

Since the Heaven Enlightenment Sect and the Dao Seeking Sect had already decided to expose it, it was impossible to continue hiding.

The news would definitely be leaked.

It was only a matter of time.

However, it was a little unexpected that it leaked so quickly.

Moreover…

The Dao Seeking Sect and the Heaven Enlightenment Sect were both prepared.

The Northern and Western Regions had actually also received some ambiguous news, and it was still uncertain. Moreover, the distance was too far, so their influence could not reach the location.

As for the Central Region…

They would not care.

Now, Qi Ming had already entered the ancient grotto-heaven for a period of time.

The current environment Qi Ming was in was in an extremely dense primitive forest. Moreover, the spiritual qi was extremely abundant, completely not lower or even higher than in the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.

In the surroundings, there were incomparably huge trees that towered into the clouds. Their crowns blocked out the sun. Moreover, in this ancient grotto-heaven, there was a scorching sun hanging high in the sky.

To be precise, based on what Qi Ming had seen so far, this ancient grotto-heaven was like a true world.

Of course, as for the exact situation, Qi Ming still needed to continue exploring on his own to completely understand it.

As for where the inheritance of this ancient grotto-heaven was?

Qi Ming did not have much idea at the moment.

“Fellow Daoist.”

Dao Junchen came with Qi Ming and smiled. “We’re really fated to meet again in this ancient grotto-heaven. Therefore, I really think that we should join forces to explore this ancient grotto-heaven.”

“I’ve already said that I’m not interested.”

Qi Ming glanced indifferently at Dao Junchen.

“Fellow Daoist, you can’t say that.”

Dao Junchen followed. “As the saying goes, there’s strength in numbers. If anything happens, it’s always good to have someone to help.”

Qi Ming did not respond.

Originally, he planned to use Future Sight and Heavenly Observation to deduce the true origin of this ancient grotto-heaven and the land of inheritance.

However, this Dao Junchen followed him shamelessly, and it really made Qi Ming feel extremely vexed. Moreover, Dao Junchen greeted him with a smile. No matter how Qi Ming berated him coldly, he did not feel anything.

He was like glue.

Qi Ming could not shake him off.

He seemed to be determined to follow Qi Ming.

If it were anyone else…

They would not resist Dao Junchen too much.

However, Qi Ming was different.

“Get lost!”

Clang!

Qi Ming waved his right hand, and a sword appeared. It was the World Piercing Sword. He looked at Dao Junchen coldly, “If you still don’t leave, don’t blame me for not showing mercy.”

“Cough cough…”

Dao Junchen was shocked and jumped back a step. He said, “Fellow Daoist Qi Ming, why are you doing this? Even if the two of us can’t join forces, we won’t become enemies!”

“No, no. Fellow Daoist, please put away the sword. The sword is a sharp weapon and is also a ferocious weapon. It’s not good if you accidentally injure others and injure yourself.”

“Noisy!”

Clang!

Qi Ming attacked without any hesitation. He slashed out a sword. Golden Core Dharmic powers fused into it, and with the enhancement of the heaven and earth Dao runes, it transformed into a sharp sword qi that slashed at Dao Junchen.

“Fellow Daoist!”

Dao Junchen cried out in surprise. He waved his right hand, and a three-legged cauldron appeared. The body of the cauldron was black and yellow, and it was carved with mountains and rivers. It was lifelike.

This was the Mountain River Black Yellow Cauldron.

Boom!

There was a loud sound.

Qi Ming’s sword qi slashed down and erupted with powerful force. It was clearly only Golden Core Dharmic powers, but it was condensed to the limit and was extremely powerful. It sent Dao Junchen’s Mountain River Black Yellow Cauldron flying.

“Oh no.”

Dao Junchen was shocked and quickly put away the Mountain River Black Yellow Cauldron. However, he discovered that a crack had actually appeared on the cauldron’s body. He was furious and heartbroken.

At the same time, he was also a little shocked.

“Fellow Daoist Qi Ming…” Dao Junchen quickly said, “We’ll meet again if we’re fated.”

Swish!

As soon as he finished speaking, Dao Junchen quickly used the Five Elements escape technique to leave.

“He could block my sword.”

Qi Ming pondered for a moment, “Dao Junchen’s strength is not weak.”

On the other side, Dao Junchen fled for five kilometers before stopping.

“This Qi Ming is too ferocious.”

Dao Junchen felt lingering fear in his heart as he wiped the nonexistent sweat on his forehead and said, “That strike from before actually slashed apart my Mountain River Black Yellow Cauldron.”

“From the Dharmic powers he showed just now, he should be at the late-stage Core Formation realm, but how can a late-stage Core Formation realm cultivator be so strong?”

“Also…”

Buzz!

Dao Junchen took out an eight trigrams token. In the center was a bronze mirror. On the bronze mirror, a line of rainbow-colored words appeared—Follow Qi Ming! Huge blessing!

“I really don’t dare to follow anymore. I’m afraid I’ll be killed.” Dao Junchen said.
