nches are divided into grades from one to nine, from low to high.Once a branch sect's overall strength reaches the ninth level, it can then send its members to the main sect's location and become disc...Jiang Yun did not hear Xue Wu Chang's two words.

Because all of his attention was now focused on the figure sitting atop Mount Cangfeng.

He didn't know if the figure had seen him, if it knew of his arrival. He just stared blankly, completely motionless.

Standing beside him, Dongfang Bo did not urge Jiang Yun. Instead, he looked at the figure on the peak with him, his calm eyes concealing a hint of longing, motionless as well.

In Blood's unwavering eyes, the scene before him seemed to be frozen as a painting.

And whether it was Jiang Yun, Dongfang Bo, or the figure on top of the peak, they all became characters in the painting.

However, Xue Wu Chang's fists clenched tighter, and the horror in his eyes deepened.

His gaze was fixed on Dongfang Bo, ignoring the figures on the summit and the ginger clouds.

Because he had already noticed the special nature of this world, including Ginger Cloud and himself.

After an unknown amount of time, two words finally softly came out of Jiang Yun's mouth: "Master…"

As soon as the words left his lips, Jiang Yun had already started walking, taking step by step towards the figure on top of the peak.

Ginger Cloud's walking speed was extremely slow. When she lifted her foot to land, there wasn't even the slightest sound.

It seems he's worried that this might just be a dream.

If I moved too quickly or made even a little noise, it would wake me from the dream, making the figure on the peak vanish.

Dongfang Bo still stood where he was, his face as calm as still water. The trace of longing in his eyes had once again turned to tranquility as he gazed at Jiang Yun. He neither stopped him nor followed him.

Just like that, Jiang Yun took one step at a time until he finally reached the peak and stood before the lone figure.

This figure, sitting cross-legged, is a child who looks to be only seven or eight years old.

It is precisely the master of Jiangyun and Dongfang Bo, Gu Bulao!

Although Gu Bulao had his eyes closed, Ginger Cloud could tell that the master was not a statue but a living person.

The next moment, with a sound of "thud", Jiang Yun had already knelt straight before Gu Bulao, bowing his head deeply to the ground. His voice trembled as he said, "Disciple Jiang Yun, I greet Master."

After the voice fell silent, there was a deathly stillness!

Ginger Cloud pressed his head to the ground for a long time before finally raising it. He saw that Master was still sitting there with his eyes closed, showing no reaction whatsoever, as if he hadn't heard Ginger Cloud's voice at all.

Obviously, this is still just a dream or a hallucination.

The master in front of you, even if he seems real, is just an illusion in a dream. He is not a true master.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang in Jiang Yun's ear, "This is not a dream or an illusion!"

"What you see is indeed our master!"

Dongfang Bo, while speaking, walked to Jiang Yun's side. Together with Jiang Yun, he knelt before Gu Bulao and performed a respectful bow.

Jiang Yun stood there, dumbfounded. He stared at his master who remained motionless and unresponsive. The words of his eldest brother echoed repeatedly in his mind.

This is not a dream, nor an illusion. Facing me truly is my master, so why is my master here

The master at this moment, should still be held captive by the Great Emperor of Extinction, within the realm of Phantom Reality!

But if it really was a master, why was he completely indifferent to the arrival of himself and his senior brother

Dongfang Bo bowed his head seriously, stood up, and pulled Jiang Yun up from the ground. "Old Fourth, my projection can't exist for long."

"Now, let me help you organize your path of cultivation first."

After finishing his words, Dongfang Bo without a word pulled Jiang Yun's hand and directly brought him off the peak, back to Jiang Yun's courtyard.

Jiang Yun stared blankly at Dongfang Bo, waiting for his elder brother to explain.

Dongfang Bo smiled faintly, shook his head and said, "Actually, I didn't want to tell you, but you, kid, if you don't figure out what's going on, you definitely won't be able to settle down."

Jiang Yun nodded hastily. Right now, his mind was filled with too many doubts, leaving him no time to sort out his path of cultivation.

Big Brother suddenly became so powerful. Ginger Cloud could imagine it must be related to the Imperial Tomb.

Even, he felt, the eldest brother was possibly like Ye Guchen, a reincarnation of an emperor who had died in the Four Realms Emperor's War.

Now that my memories have returned and I've gone back to the Imperial Tombs, my strength has greatly increased.

But Jiang Yun really couldn't figure it out, what exactly was this place, and was the master truly real

Donghuang Bo walked to a stone bench and sat down, extending a finger towards his surroundings. "Actually," he said, "if you look around carefully, you'll understand."

Ginger immediately turned her head and looked around carefully.

At first, he didn't notice anything amiss. Until a moment passed, his heart suddenly stirred and he blurted out, "Senior Brother, here, why is it so quiet"

For Zangfeng, Gingercloud was all too familiar. She knew that there was a waterfall here, and within the waterfall was the practice place of her second senior sister.

And the waterfalls cascade day and night, causing the mountain peaks to be constantly bombarded by the roar of falling water.

However, now, there is utter silence all around, not a single sound can be heard.

>>

For Master Brother to suddenly stop nagging and instead start playing coy, Jiang Yun also found it rather unsettling.

However, instead of asking anything further, he hurried forward one step and came to the waterfall!

When he saw the waterfall, his face changed dramatically!

Waterfalls, nature still exists.

But, it fell into a state of stillness!

The waterfall, plummeting straight down, hung suspended in mid-air before Jiang Yun.

Not even a single drop of water moves!

Even through the waterfall, Jiang Yun could see a dignified figure inside his second senior sister's residence—it was indeed his second senior sister!

Second Sister was also like Master, sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, perfectly still!

Jiang Yun stared fixedly at the waterfall, and after sizing up his second senior sister for a long while, his figure flickered again before he abruptly left Zangfeng!

At this moment, Ginger Cloud's heart was already hinting at some things, but she wasn't sure.

Because the idea was so outlandish, he found it hard to accept.

Zangfeng, has always been within the Wudao sect, it is the sixth peak of Wudao.

Beside it is Wudao Five Peaks, also known as the Great Desolate Five Peaks, which is where all disciples of the Wudao Sect cultivate.

If this is not a dream and an illusion, then since there are hidden peaks, there must also be the five peaks of asking questions.

Standing beneath the Zangfeng peak, Jiang Yun indeed saw the Wudao Five Peaks, and on top of the Wudao Five Peaks, he saw quite a number of figures.

However, those figures were also motionless, like statues. But Jiang Yun was certain that they were not statues.

At the same time, Dongfang Bo's voice rang out in Jiang Yun's ear again: "Little junior brother, do you understand now"

Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment before replying in a daze, "The time here is frozen!"

Jiang Yun mastered the power of time. Although he couldn't say how profound his mastery was, he had recently used the art of Fixing the Ocean several times in a row.

To fix the Cang Hai, is to freeze time.

However, Ding Cang Hai can only fix a certain range of time. But the world he is in now has been completely frozen in time.

This is also why, whether it be the master or the senior sisters, including those disciples within the Questioning Dao Sect, they are all real people, yet they cannot move!

Although he understood that the time here was static, Jiang Yun still couldn't quite figure it out. What exactly was this place

The bloodless gaze of the deity, however, was still fixed upon Dongfang Bo, who sat rigidly upon the stone bench.

In his mind, he recalled the scene where Dongfang Bo had gently stroked Jiang Yun's head just now. His voice trembled as he said: "Could it be... the Heavenly Longevity Touched Top..."ts' Venerable, and thought her safety was paramount, in Wu Yao Hua's heart, she believed that the five elders were the very foundation and support of the Five Spirits clan.Any one of them faltering wo...
