Chapter 665: A Sect with Only One Member

Even though every word the young Taoist nun said was understood by Lin Yi, why couldn’t he make any sense of them when reading them together?

Master?

Isn’t the dimensional plane of this planet higher than Blue Star?

Even before Blue Star’s strength increased, professionals with Eighth Transformation strength wouldn’t dare to talk about founding a martial arts school.

Why does this young Taoist nun seem so clueless?

"Why aren’t you speaking? Is it because you can’t hide your excitement after meeting your master? There’s no need for that; you’ll have plenty of time to spend with me in the future. By joining our Ciyun Peak, you definitely won’t lose out. Our Ciyun Peak offers the finest cultivation techniques in Yunhe Town. As long as you can cultivate to the Ninth Layer, no one in Yunhe Town or even Yunzhou will be your match."

"I think you have a decent demeanor, from now on, you’ll be the head senior brother of our sect!"

No, wait!

The earlier words, Lin Yi could completely dismiss as the nun bragging; listening wouldn’t matter.

But saying something like becoming the head senior brother of the sect... Is this nun serious?

Could it be that on this entire Ciyun Peak, there’s only this young Taoist nun?

Having spent three gold coins, the innkeeper found such a sect for him, Lin Yi felt like his hand on the knife was getting hard to hold back.

Facing Lin Yi’s cold gaze, the innkeeper couldn’t help but shiver. To save his own life, he quickly pulled Lin Yi aside.

"Sir, don’t get me wrong. I really didn’t trick you this time. Even if Ciyun Mountain is in decline now, it used to be the number one grand sect in Yunhe Town."

"Even looking across all of Yunzhou, it was still second to none."

Lin Yi didn’t doubt the innkeeper’s words.

From the moment he arrived, Lin Yi had quietly released his detection robot to observe the whole of Ciyun Mountain. Just after the misunderstanding, the visuals were relayed back to Lin Yi’s mind.

The top half of Ciyun Mountain was shrouded in thick fog; unless observed up close, nothing could be seen.

The area closest to the summit was even more exaggerated, as Lin Yi’s [Dragonfly Robot] sensed the presence of the Sect Protection Array and couldn’t detect the situation within.

However, it’s worth mentioning that the thermal imaging function could penetrate layers of mist and detect the presence of life.

Besides a few celestial cranes and a dog, there were no other living beings on Ciyun Peak.

When Ao Shu heard Ah De’s words, her temper flared up, and she raised her hand intending to punish the deceitful innkeeper.

Fortunately, Lin Yi intervened to stop her, otherwise, Ao Shu’s careless slap might have killed Ah De directly.

"Brother Lin Yi, why is it that this sect doesn’t even have a single disciple, yet he brought us here to apprentice? We can’t learn anything here, not even from the Sect Leader..."

To prevent further trouble, Lin Yi hurriedly covered her small mouth.

"Ah De, I believe what you said, but bringing us to a fallen grand sect, what are your true intentions?"

Lin Yi had the ability to see through people’s thoughts, and Ao Shu knew this well. As long as Lin Yi trusted someone, Ao Shu wouldn’t continue making things difficult.

Facing the perplexed looks from the three of them, Ah De awkwardly scratched his head.

"Well, sir, I do have some personal motives in all this..."

From the initial conversation between Ah De and the Taoist nun, it wasn’t hard to deduce that the two knew each other, and it seemed Ah De had some persistent feelings for her.

After Ah De’s explanation, Lin Yi finally decided to give him an extra gold coin to soothe his wounded feelings.

Dubhe Pavilion of Ciyun Peak, a sect that once dominated one of the world’s five continents, Yunzhou.

At its peak, the average level of the hundred disciples in Dubhe Pavilion had reached the late stages of the Celestial Human Realm.

The Celestial Human Realm is one of the levels used on this planet named Xiang Wuxing to distinguish strength.

Once one enters the Celestial Human Realm, they can command the winds and rain, and wield various natural powers, equivalent to the War God Level on Blue Star.

Such a powerful sect, with Sect Leader Zhang Mi, who was also Zhang Yun’s father, having an even mightier strength that reached the Immortal level.

During a defense mission for the continent, the entire Dubhe Pavilion was annihilated, leaving only the Sect Leader Zhang Mi’s beloved daughter alive.

Dubhe Pavilion is a holy land in the hearts of all Yunzhou cultivators, and given that it was destroyed while protecting Yunzhou, many sects pledged to nurture Zhang Mi’s daughter when Dubhe Pavilion first declined.

But as time went on, the conscience of those reputable sects, holding great power and resources, gradually faded.

They attributed the strength of Dubhe Pavilion to its Heart Method, the Dubhe Strange Scripture.

Seeing that there was no longer anyone to lead Dubhe Pavilion, those so-called reputable sects set their sights on the Dubhe Strange Scripture.

Due to the contributions of Dubhe Pavilion, those reputable sects couldn’t openly seize it, so they gave Zhang Yun time. As long as Dubhe Pavilion could continue its legacy by having excellent disciples place in the top ten of Yunzhou’s Grand Competition, it could keep receiving cultivation resources from major sects and continue its lineage.

Otherwise, Zhang Yun would have to hand over the Dubhe Strange Scripture to be scrambled for by various sects.

With such an excellent cultivation technique as the Dubhe Strange Scripture, there should be no shortage of people coming to Ciyun Peak to apprentice.

However, under pressure from major factions in Yunzhou, those who genuinely wanted to apprentice were deterred by concerns for their family, fearing to approach, while those daring to apprentice consisted mostly of thieves sent by major sects to steal the scripture.

After listening to Ah De’s explanation, Lin Yi understood.

The three of them were now entangled in the undercurrent surging in Yunzhou.

"From what you’re saying, we three are already targeted by all the major forces in Yunzhou, aren’t we?"

"Those self-proclaimed righteous sects can’t lose face to attack Dubhe Pavilion directly, but surveillance is something they would do, right? Are you planning to push us into a pit?"

After saying this, Xiyue grabbed Ah De by his collar, which scared him into trembling.

"Ms. Lin, I didn’t mean it like that at all. I just thought you all came from extraordinary backgrounds, and the powers behind you must be significant. Perhaps you could contend with Yunzhou’s few mighty beings; Dubhe Pavilion’s righteousness shouldn’t fade away in the river of history. I know, apart from you, no one can help Ah Yun."

As he spoke, Ah De bent his knees and knelt directly in front of Lin Yi and the others.

"Ah Yun has never accepted anyone else, only you three are the exception. If Mr. Lin could contend with a few of Yunzhou’s mighty beings, Ah De implores you, join Dubhe Pavilion. The Dubhe Strange Scripture could offer you great enhancements. Considering the backgrounds and talents of you three, perhaps you could all reach the rank of Immortal. Please, have mercy, sirs."

Emmm....

In saying so, it seems rather interesting.

The cultivation technique that the whole of Yunzhou’s powerhouses covet can’t be an ordinary thing, right? Isn’t this one of the reasons for coming to Xiang Wuxing?
