Chapter 1055 Nine Heavens Eternal Grotto "You said your name was Yuan, right? You never gave us your surname." Elder Mai asked him a moment later, as she suspected that he was from an influential family. "I don't have anything like that. Anyways, if the match is over, can I leave now? I have people waiting for me outside." Yuan said in a calm manner. "You think you can just leave after what you did to my disciple?" Elder Mai narrowed her eyes at him, but once again, Yuan couldn't sense any threatening feeling from it. "Don't tell me you're going to fight me next even though I already won the match?" He asked her. "Why would I fight you? I was just going to—" A portal suddenly appeared a few meters away from Yuan and Elder Mai. Then, an old man with long white hair calmly walked out of the portal with his hands clasped behind his back. When Elder Mai and the guard saw him, they immediately bowed to him, "Sect Master Bai!" "Senior Bai? What are you doing here?" Yuan was pleasantly surprised to see him appear in this place. "How disrespectful! Do you know who you're before?! Lower your head and greet him!" Elder Mai suddenly shouted at him. "It's fine. This young man is my friend." Senior Bai gestured for her to calm her with a gentle smile on his face. "..." Elder Mai was speechless. "I've watched your fight just now, Yuan. I must say, you've grown tremendously since our last meeting, and even your appearance changed a bit. You're almost like a different person." Senior Bai said while approaching him. "Anyways, why don't we chat in a more quiet place?" "Sure." Yuan nodded. Senior Bai proceeded to make another portal before entering it. Yuan didn't say anything to the others and followed Senior Bai, disappearing from the platform. Once they were gone, Elder Mai turned to look at the guard and asked him, "Who was that young man just now? Is it true that he came from the Third Heaven?" He nodded, "Yes, it's true, but I don't know anything about him. He came out of the blue and requested to go to the fifth floor." Elder Mai turned to look at her disciple, who was still unconscious, and sighed, "When I heard that a Spirit King dared to challenge the Gates of Heaven, I immediately thought about putting this an ignorant little runt in his place. However, it turns out that I had been the ignorant one. I hope this defeat won't hinder my disciple's future cultivation too much, but honestly, I'm probably hoping for too much, as even I would be depressed after such a devastating defeat." Elder Mai carried her unconscious disciple away, disappearing from the platform, leaving the guard alone and puzzled. After following Senior Bai, Yuan found himself on the floating platform again. "I was really shocked when I saw your improvements, especially when I realized that you have achieved a Perfect Physique." Senior Bai said to him once they sat down. "Do you know how many people out there would kill for a Perfect Physique? I remember trying to acquire one myself, but I failed, yet here you are, not even a hundred years old and already with a Perfect Physique." Senior Bai chuckled in a bittersweet manner. "Did something happen?" Yuan asked him. He nodded, "Do you remember when I told you about the Nine Heavens Eternal Grotto?" "The four escaped immortals?" "Yes. We managed to track down three of them and brought two of them back to the Nine Heavens Eternal Grotto, but it was at a heavy cost. Thousands of cultivators died, and a few of my good friends also perished during the struggle." "Wait… Only two returned to the Nine Heavens Eternal Grotto? Did they kill one of them?" Yuan asked. "Hardly. The third Immortal had managed to escape. And that's why I am reaching out to you." Senior Bai said, and he continued, "The escaped Immortal had somehow managed to escape to the lower heavens, so you might come across this Immortal." "Wa-Wait a minute… Isn't that very bad? What if they suddenly decide to wreak havoc in the lower heavens? I don't think I have the capabilities to do anything to this Immortal." "I am well aware of that. I'm not telling you to seek this Immortal and kill them for me. I am just letting you know so that you're aware of the situation. With that being said, the Immortal is heavily injured after escaping, so they will be powerless for a bit." Yuan nodded, "I won't be actively searching for this Immortal, but I will keep a lookout for them. Do you know which of the lower heaven they've runned to? And what about this Immortal's appearance?" "The Immortal can be anywhere between the Third Heaven and the Sixth Heaven. As for their appearance… To be honest, we don't know either. This Immortal is always shrouded with darkness, so we can't tell their gender or appearance." "Shrouded with darkness, huh?" "Even if you don't know their appearance, you will immediately know if this Immortal is nearby." Senior Bai suddenly said. "How?" Yuan raised an eyebrow. "You will understand it once you feel it. Even if this Immortal suppresses their cultivation, they cannot suppress their natural aura. You will feel an intense chill down your spine when this Immortal is near." "I understand." Yuan nodded. Sometime later, Senior Bai spoke, "Anyways, now that is out of the way, do you have any questions for me before I leave?" "Actually, I do. Do you think it's possible for me to bring my friends to the fifth floor of the Myriad of Techniques? I want to give them some techniques." "You mean your girlfriends?" Senior Bai smiled. Yuan nodded, not denying it. "I will make an exception for you only if you do me a favor." Senior Bai then said. "What kind of favor?" "I will let you know when the time comes. Don't worry, it's nothing dangerous or crazy. You can even refuse it when the time comes and you don't like it." -- AN: Since this is a new ark and we've just arrived in the Third Heaven, I needed to take a few days to outline the plot. There will be 4+ more chapters today.
