第三千零八十七章 意外变故

Lin Xuan, having obtained what he wanted, naturally had no interest in lingering here any longer.

With a wave of his sleeve robe, a luminous spiritual boat appeared before him. The entire body shimmered with spiritual light, and the surface was engraved with many ancient symbols.

This thing couldn't be ordinary!

The flying artifact he received at an auction in a lost interface was clearly no trivial matter. It not only boasted astonishing flight speed but also had formidable defensive capabilities. Moreover, it came equipped with several array formations, making it a true treasure.

With so many people accompanying him, using this spiritual boat to travel would undoubtedly be more efficient and effective.

"Get on board!"

Lin Xuan instructed calmly.

"Yes!"

The cultivators behind him naturally had no objections as they displayed their abilities and boarded the spiritual boat.

The low-ranking disciples from Snowfeather Sect were left speechless. They had never heard of such a high-grade flying artifact before, let alone seen one. Their eyes filled with envy as Lin Xuan's figure flashed and he arrived on the spiritual boat.

Following his command, another wave of his sleeve robe sent out a spell. The spiritual boat was enveloped in a dazzling light, speeding off into the distance.

"Uncle Senior, this senior... Could he really be an old ancestor from the Tribulation Transcending Realm?"

A young disciple's voice echoed as he could hardly believe what had just happened.

"I don't know either."

The middle-aged cultivator's face was filled with a bitter smile. "Such beings are beyond our comprehension. Even if he isn't an old ancestor of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, his cultivation is still awe-inspiring. We can barely hope to catch up with him..."

"Unfortunately, we missed such a high person and didn't gain anything from him." The young man with bright eyes lamented.

"Benefits, Junior Brother Wu, one should be content. If it weren't for meeting this senior, we wouldn't even have the chance to think about benefits."

The middle-aged cultivator was slightly displeased but quickly added, "Let's not discuss that now. Since there are three-eyed vulture monsters in this area, other terrifying beasts might also exist. The most pressing thing is to leave as soon as possible; otherwise, we may not have such good luck next time."

"Uncle Senior has spoken wisely."

This was reasonable, and the young man with bright eyes couldn't refute it. The other Foundation Establishment cultivators agreed wholeheartedly, urging them to quickly depart.

Since everyone had the same intention, there was no need for further discussion. The middle-aged cultivator chose a relatively safer path, taking several of his junior disciples, and they vanished into the distance.

Time passed swiftly, like water flowing by. Half a year later, Lin Xuan finally caught sight of Cloud Conceal Mountains.

The reason it took so long was due to good fortune. Their transmission had directly brought them back to Dragonclaw Realm.

However, luck is as elusive as mist. Although Lin Xuan seemed to have good fortune, it wasn't always with him. He did return to Dragonclaw Realm, but the distance to Cloud Conceal Sect was too great.

Returning in half a year was already an achievement. First, the flying artifact had decent speed; second, his wealth allowed him to use any teleportation array he passed by, spending whatever crystal stones were needed without hesitation.

Otherwise, at ordinary cultivator's pace, it would be uncertain whether they could cover such a distance even given a hundred years.

This wasn't an exaggeration. Dragonclaw Realm was one of the top ten realms in the Dragonclaw Region, with vast expanses that were hard to fathom for most people.

"Master, is this where you said Cloud Conceal Sect is?"

Luying'er's excited voice echoed. Even if it hadn't been her, the other cultivators nearby also showed excitement, finally seeing a true spiritual realm.

"Senior Master, you mentioned that Dragonclaw Realm was named after Senior Dragonclaw. Wasn't he an immensely powerful being from ancient times?"

Before Lin Xuan could answer, Luying'er's voice continued to chatter. Lin Xuan shook his head; compared to before reincarnation, the girl seemed more lively.

This wasn't unusual, as the concept of reincarnation was highly uncertain, and personality would inevitably change after rebirth.

Fortunately, when faced with significant matters, she still remained calm. That was enough.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan prepared to answer his disciple's question, but at that moment, something unexpected happened.

Boom!

A loud noise echoed as the spiritual boat suddenly collided with something and stopped abruptly, violently shaking.

"What...?"

Lin Xuan was taken aback. Such a sudden change was beyond his expectations. After all, everything had been going smoothly until now; he never imagined encountering such an incident at Cloud Conceal Sect's main hall.

Lin Xuan didn't have the ability to foresee events, so without extending his divine sense, he wouldn't have noticed anything amiss first.

However, Lin Xuan reacted swiftly. Despite the sudden change, a wave of his sleeve robe sent out a spell like lightning.

Sizzle...

As Lin Xuan moved, a blue protective layer appeared on the surface of the spiritual boat, shielding it.

Almost simultaneously, "Puff puff puff," dull sounds echoed as the surrounding spatial energy surged violently. Light spheres and columns, burning snakes, all rushed towards the spiritual boat.

Like raindrops, they battered against the light curtain, causing it to tremble uncontrollably, almost ready to crack.

"Hmph!"

Lin Xuan's face turned cold as he raised his right hand and lightly pressed a disc-shaped artifact in front of him.

A colorful glow flowed as profound magical power was infused into this treasure. The entire action was like flowing clouds and water. The wobbly light curtain instantly became solid again.

However, Lin Xuan's expression darkened. If he remembered correctly, there shouldn't be any restrictions nearby. Had something happened to Cloud Conceal Sect in the past century?

This thought flashed through his mind as the spiritual boat suddenly lit up with various shapes oftreasureandspirit artifact, rushing towards them like a river breaking its banks.

"Master!"

Luying'er's murmured voice echoed behind him. The Red Silk Fairy, the clothed man, and Stone Fairy, among other cultivators, were also left speechless.

Senior Lin said he was the Supreme Elder of Cloud Conceal Sect; how could it be this scene when returning to the sect?
