Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law

Chapter 549 - 547: Is He Really the Son-in-law? Mist Heaven Hall Appears Under the Moonlit Night!

"Chen Beixuan, Elder Chen... are you really my family’s son-in-law?"

The woman in green whispered to herself, deciding to find an opportunity to ask...

Watching as Lu Ye received the bag of Source Crystals standing in the sky, many felt envy, as Source Crystals are indeed precious for speeding up cultivation.

However, despite the envy, few dared to show greed.

Haven’t they seen that he could now withstand the Sea Spirit Hall Saintess? A peak expert at Celestial Realm Second Layer!

Not only that, he seemed to have the upper hand in Domain Power.

Being envious of such a figure’s compensation, even if a spirit cat had nine lives, it wouldn’t be enough for him to kill.

There were astute people who noticed that two consecutive waves had quietly dissipated, and they could see...

All attention was indeed focused on Mist Heaven Hall.

No one wanted to stir up trouble at this critical juncture.

...

Unfortunately, today was still not the day Mist Heaven Hall would officially appear.

But the cultivators present were unwilling to stray too far, with many taking out tents directly from their Storage Rings to begin setting up camp.

As more people followed suit, the campsite quickly formed with Yunlan River at its center, gradually spreading outwards.

Those closest to Yunlan River were undoubtedly pinnacle forces with Celestial Realm or Earth Realm Late Stage, such as Sea Spirit Hall, Lingyao Celestial Palace, and others.

Nearing dusk, another flying vessel arrived.

"The Infinite Dao Sect from Hidden Spirit Land?"

Seeing the emblem on the flying vessel, Lu Ye was curious. This top force from Hidden Spirit Land had only been heard in rumors until now.

This was the first time he had seen it in person.

"Infinite Dao Sect... this force is strong, even above Celestial Curtain Prefecture. In terms of ranking, it should be considered first in Hidden Spirit Land." Sang Xiyao said seriously.

"Stronger than the Celestial Palace?" Lu Ye asked in surprise.

After a moment of silence, Sang Xiyao whispered, "If you disregard the Palace Master, actually... Infinite Dao Sect is likely stronger than us."

Lu Ye: "..."

So, the Celestial Palace’s status is primarily due to that unfathomable Master of the Celestial Palace?

Thinking about it, Lu Ye realized that the Master of the Celestial Palace was indeed terrifyingly strong, leaving him with a deep impression during their two meetings.

Even without making a move, Lu Ye could feel that he was far superior to anyone he had previously encountered, including the Celestial Realm beings present.

After Sang Xiyao finished speaking, her eyes occasionally glanced at Lu Ye.

She couldn’t understand how a man who appeared so young could be so abnormal?

If the Sea Spirit Saintess, at about thirty years old, becoming Celestial Realm Second Layer, was already a prodigy rarely seen by a pinnacle force like Sea Spirit Hall...

Then what was this man?

He wasn’t even thirty yet!

In fact, he was at least three years younger than the Sea Spirit Saintess.

In Sea Spirit Hall, looking at the high-profile arrival of Infinite Dao Sect’s flying vessel, a Celestial Realm Middle Stage Elder said, "Infinite Dao Sect actually sent a Celestial Realm Sixth Layer to lead, seems they have great confidence regarding Mist Heaven Hall."

Sea Spirit Saintess glanced over, then withdrew her gaze, saying indifferently, "The situation inside is complex, adding a Celestial Realm Sixth Layer won’t necessarily improve it, and if luck is bad..."

She didn’t finish the latter half, but those beside her understood.

Even in the past, when Mist Heaven Hall had Celestial Realm Ninth Layer, there were casualties.

Ultimately, it depended on individual fortunes.

Infinite Dao Sect naturally occupied a crucial area near the river.

Once settled, Infinite Dao Sect’s Daoist looked around with a hint of amusement, saying, "Every time an opportunity arises, many seem confident that fortune will fall into their hands. Yet only when Mist Heaven Hall opens will they realize... what a burial ground with a high death rate of forty percent it truly is."

Upon hearing the Daoist’s words, Infinite Dao Sect’s disciples showed a hint of agreement.

Among these arrivals, there were many loose cultivators.

And the last time Mist Heaven Hall opened, nearly half perished... among them, many were these loose cultivators.

Loose cultivators lagged behind those with backgrounds in both foundational strength and survival techniques.

"Why haven’t Celestial Curtain Prefecture and Yunyao Holy Palace come this time?" An Infinite Dao Sect disciple asked, looking around curiously.

Being other top forces in Hidden Spirit Mini World, these Infinite Dao Sect members were naturally interested.

Yet, after checking, they still hadn’t seen people from these two forces appear.

"As for Yunyao Holy Palace, I don’t know. But Celestial Curtain Prefecture seems to have some friction with Chen Beixuan from Northern Territory, so they’re not planning to come." Another disciple said quietly.

"A mere Earth Realm from the outside world only killed one of their Earth Realm Fourth Layer Elders, and they’re willing to abandon Mist Heaven Hall for that?" The Infinite Dao Sect Daoist spoke, somewhat puzzled.

Their Celestial Curtain Prefecture might have a lesser foundation than Yunyao Holy Palace and Infinite Dao, but losing an Earth Realm Fourth Layer shouldn’t elicit weeping over a great loss.

Infinite Dao Sect’s Elder said, "There’s a rumor, Chen Beixuan might not have the apparent Northern Territory background behind him."

The Infinite Dao Sect Daoist curiously asked, "Does this mean there’s another hidden truth?"

"Rumor has it, Chen Beixuan has an unfathomable background... seeming to come from that place." The Infinite Dao Sect Celestial Realm Elder said slowly, his face solemn.

That place... is it there?!

The Infinite Dao Sect Daoist was initially startled, then his eyes turned sharp, "Someone from that place? Impossible."

The Infinite Dao Sect Elder shook his head, "This information, I only heard from Celestial Curtain Prefecture people. Whether it’s true or not, I don’t know."

After a moment’s thought, the Infinite Dao Sect Daoist sneered, "Isn’t it this Chen Beixuan deliberately spreading news to polish his image? I also heard he recently joined Lingyao Celestial Palace. People from that place... would they join an outside force like the Celestial Palace?"

The Infinite Dao Sect Elder exclaimed, "There’s such a thing? If that’s the case, it indeed seems like a rumor."

People from that place generally wouldn’t consider the status of Lingyao Celestial Palace.

At that moment, as the Infinite Dao Sect Daoist intended to say more, up in the sky above Yunlan River...

A distinct vortex of Heaven and Earth Source Qi suddenly appeared!

In the night sky, under the moonlight, a bronze gate several hundred meters tall, seeming to emerge from a vast land, began to slowly manifest!
