Dark Phoenix Prince - Chapter 127
“We have arrived!” Said the old man after a while.
Alu still couldn’t see the environment around him other than the expanse of sky. However, he guessed that they had arrived at the fire temple mountain.
Far below, he could feel many cultivator auras and each one of them exuded an extremely oppressive feeling.
Compared to the nirvana aura in this place, the nirvana aura in the Holy Light continent felt one level lower.
Perhaps the average nirvana stage cultivator in this place had a combat strength that almost surpassed a single layer of cultivation.
The old man then took Alu flying down.
As they descended further and further down, Alu could feel an invisible pressure pressing down on his body.
Under that invisible pressure, Alu found the area that his soul sense could cover was shrinking very quickly.
From tens of thousands of kilometers it shrinks to thousands of kilometers then hundreds, then only tens of kilometers. And that was before he even landed on the ground.
“…”
Alu’s expression immediately turned sour the moment he sensed that.
The old man seemed to have noticed the problem with Alu’s soul sense, so he quickly spoke up to comfort Alu.
“Don’t worry, this place is actually not very wide. And the power that can be released in this place is also very small. No one can cross an area of one kilometer in one step in this place. Even I can’t do it.”
When they finally landed on the ground, Alu discovered that his soul sense could only cover an area of one kilometer.
As the third layer of Nirvana with a perfect foundation, an area of one kilometer is truly minuscule. It was basically no different from when he was at the Spiritual Warrior stage.
He stopped thinking about that after a while.
He then scanned the area around him.
Judging from the land that swooped upwards, it was clear that he was on a mountain.
At this moment, he was in a clearing with many wooden pavilions.
From within each of those wooden pavilions, he could feel an extremely strong aura.
Whooss… Whooss… Whooss…
It was only moments after he and the old man arrived at the place, figure after figure jumped out from each of the wooden pavilions.
Each of those figures looked to be in their twenties. They still look young. However, each of them emitted a high level of nirvana aura.
Of course, just because they looked young didn’t mean their true age was really what they looked like. Even on the Rising Sun continent, you will be considered a genius if you can reach the seventh layer of Nirvana at the age of thirty.
“They are senior disciples. In this sect, disciples who did not reach the seventh layer of Nirvana before turning thirty are no longer allowed to live in the temple mountain.”
“But if they can reach the seventh layer of nirvana before turning thirty, they will become senior disciples of this sect.” The old man explained.
Hearing the old man’s explanation, Alu sighed in admiration.
A high level Nirvana who is thirty years old is still considered very young.
Don’t look at Zaden who looks like a middle-aged man in his prime. But his real age was already over sixties.
If those senior disciples were in the Holy Light continent, they could even call themselves the Young King of Nirvana.
Shua… Shua… Shua…
After the old man spoke, the senior disciples finally arrived before them.
Alu saw them and he could feel the extreme heat from their bodies.
Among them, there were ten people with the aura of the nirvana ninth layer. And each of those ten people gave Alu a feeling that was far more terrifying than Old Hodus, the strongest expert in the Holy Light continent.
Upon sensing their auras, even Alu felt extreme danger. He knew with his current strength, he wouldn’t be able to escape from them without using external force.
As he stared at the senior disciples, they were also staring at him.
They looked surprised when they saw Alu who was standing beside the old man.
Even though his eyes were currently covered in cloth, it didn’t interfere with his appearance. On the contrary, he looked even more and more eye-catching than before.
Of course, what caught their attention the most was his aura. And his face that still looks so young also makes them surprised.
But they didn’t stare at Alu for too long.
After they all gathered, they immediately greeted the old man who was beside Alu.
“Master Egan.” They talk at the same time.
It turned out that the old man’s name was Egan. And he was clearly one of the masters of the fire temple as only the temple masters could be summoned as masters in the Five Elements Sect.
“Mm!” Old Egan nodded at them.
He then looked at Alu who was standing beside him.
“This young man is not yet sixteen years old and his cultivation has already reached the third layer of Nirvana with a very perfect foundation.”
“This old man found him accidentally, and since he is also a fire type cultivator, this old man decided to make him the holy son of our fire temple.” Old Egan spoke with a happy smile.
But his words stunned the senior disciples.
Old Egan was clearly expecting their reaction. But he didn’t seem to care.
He then spoke to Alu. “Son, now introduce yourself to your senior brothers and sisters. Their support is very important to your position.”
“Mm.” Alu nodded politely.
He then took one step forward.
Under the confused gazes of those senior disciples, he then placed a hand on his chest. He then bent his body in an elegant manner like a respectable aristocrat.
“My name is Alu. I hope the senior brothers and sisters support me. I will try my best not to disappoint you all.” He introduced himself very politely.
People who saw him would think that he was a very kind young man.
After seeing the strength of those senior disciples, Alu immediately decided what kind of attitude he would be in that sect.
From Old Egan’s previous words, his position as a holy son obviously couldn’t be obtained so easily.
People who wanted the position of a holy son obviously would not let him take that position just like that.
And this will not only be a fight of individuals, but also a battle of support.
To get support from those senior disciples, just showing talent was definitely not enough. He also needed to win over them.
At times like these, the skills he had trained from childhood were really very useful.
