Chapter 2310

Although the Thousand Leaves Sect could not be compared with the truly top sects now, relying on the many heritages left over from tens of thousands of years ago, it still had an extraordinary atmosphere. Yang Kai walked along the way and was also enjoying the scenery with great interest.

However, he could sense that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here in Thousand Leaves Sect was indeed not very dense. Such a spiritual mountain and precious land without the corresponding lingering spiritual energy indicated that the earth veins here were not outstanding. Such a piece of land should not have been regarded as a place to establish a sect, but the founding ancestor of Thousand Leaves Sect chose to spread branches and leaves here, obviously because of that secret realm.

Just like Wen Zishan established Qingyang Shrine in Qingyang Mountain Range, the existence of the Divine Movement Jing was the decisive factor.

The mountain road was rugged, and everyone flew in the air. Below, and the sea of clouds and fog was shrouded. and the scenery was beautiful.

“Huh… that small mountain over there looks like a beast.” Red Moon suddenly seemed to have discovered something and pointed to a small mountain peak about fifty zhang high not far away and said.

“The one next to it is also a bit interesting, like a person standing with a sword in hand！” Gu Cangyun looked at another mountain peak with burning eyes, looking very interested.

Everyone turned their heads to look over there. Soon, they found that there were not just these two interesting mountain peaks. Inside Thousand Leaves Mountain, there were at least a dozen small mountain peaks like this that resembled certain living beings. Without exception, these small mountain peaks were not too tall, between several tens and a hundred zhang, either lying prone or standing upright, looking as if those living beings had been magnified countless times.

Yang Kai also found it interesting and couldn’t help but take a few more glances. However, soon, his expression changed, and his spiritual sense spread out of his body, covering those oddly shaped small mountain peaks.

Moments later, his face couldn’t help but change slightly, and he said in horror, “Sect Master Ye, these small mountain peaks… are not as simple as they seem on the surface, right？”

Ye Hen smiled and said, “Young Master Yang really has sharp eyes and was actually able to see this. I, Ye, admire it.”

“Is it really what I thought？” Yang Kai’s face suddenly became solemn.

Ye Hen nodded and said, “That’s right. It’s indeed what Young Master Yang thought.”

“Daddy, what are you guys talking about？” Ye Jinghan looked at her father blankly, not knowing what riddle he was playing with Yang Kai.

Chi Yue and the others were also completely confused but didn’t dare to ask.

Yang Kai couldn’t help but feel a sense of respect. He praised, “The ancestors of your sect were indeed remarkable figures. Originally, I thought that Miss Ye had exaggerated the past glory of the Thousand Leaves Sect, but now it seems that there is no falsehood at all.”

Ye Hen sighed and said, “Although the foundation is still there, the heritage has declined. I, Ye, am ashamed.

Ye Jinghan said, “This is not Daddy’s fault. If the ancestors of that generation hadn’t lost the inheritance, we wouldn’t have become like this.”

“Presumptuous！” Ye Hen glared at Ye Jinghan. “How can you casually comment on the actions of our ancestors?”

Ye Jinghan pouted, looking discontented.

Seeing that Ye Hen was in a bad mood, Yang Kai didn’t ask any more questions. However, his impression of Thousand Leaves Sect suddenly improved a lot. He felt that if Thousand Leaves Sect could really retrieve those inheritances, it might not be impossible to rise to the level of a top sect within a hundred years. Just based on those unremarkable but rather strange small mountain peaks, it would be sufficient to achieve this.

Moments later. The group of people arrived at Thousand Leaves Peak, the main peak of Thousand Leaves Mountain. Like other sects, there were pavilions, towers, and buildings on the peak here built with great momentum and grandeur. Obviously, this was an extremely important place for Thousand Leaves Sect.

And at the summit, there was an ancient hall that stood firm, with the cell of the desolate years.

The group then landed their escape lights in front of that hall.

The other people of Thousand Leaves Sect seemed to have already received the news and had been waiting here. After seeing Ye Hen and Yang Kai and the others, they all bowed and saluted. However, Shi Cangying’s figure was not seen here.

Ye Hen introduced the high-level personnel of Thousand Leaves Sect to Yang Kai one by one.

After some pleasantries between the two sides, Ye Hen then led Yang Kai and the others into that hall to welcome them and wash away their dust.

Outside the great hall, there are warriors wearing black armor and holding long halberds standing on both sides. Not only that, there are also some strange-shaped monsters lying on the ground, motionless.

When Yang Kai and the others walked past these guards, they saw that they did not move at all, not even blinking their eyes. And there was no intention of taking the initiative to salute.

This made Yang Kai couldn’t help but feel a little strange. After looking at those guards a few more times, his whole body shook, and he suddenly stopped in his tracks, and released his spiritual thoughts in surprise to sweep over those guards.

Ye Hen also stopped when he saw this, looking at Yang Kai with a smile.

“Sect Master Yang, what’s the matter？” Gu Cangyun didn’t know what Yang Kai had discovered and asked suspiciously.

Yang Kai looked around for a while, and then took a deep breath, looking at Ye Hen and said, “Sect Master Ye… these guards are all puppets？”

“What？” Chi Yue and the others suddenly widened their eyes and looked at the guards standing on both sides in disbelief, and released their spiritual thoughts to check one after another.

After a while, all of them widened their eyes, looking unbelievable.

Before, they didn’t pay much attention. They just felt that these guards gave people a strange feeling. But after Yang Kai’s reminder, they discovered that these guards wearing black armor and holding weapons were not all living things, but one by one, extremely lifelike puppets.

They look no different from real people. Even the skin exposed outside the armor is the normal complexion of a normal person.

Red Moon and the others turned their heads and looked around again and found that those variously shaped beasts crawling on the ground also seemed to be puppets.

Now they were completely shocked.

Ye Hen smiled and said, “These are some of the few Earth-level puppets of this sect. Young Master Yang and everyone, please don’t laugh.”

Although he said this, there was an extremely proud expression on his face, obviously quite proud of the foundation of his own sect.

The other high-level members of the Thousand Leaves Sect also had expressions of pride on their faces.

Yang Kai raised his brows and said, “Puppets are also divided into grades？”

Ye Hen said, “Naturally. In my Thousand Leaves Sect, all puppets are divided into four grades： Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. Each grade is further divided into three levels. The higher the grade and level, the more powerful the puppet.”

Then these Earth-level puppets…” Red Moon pointed at the nearly thirty puppets around here and asked curiously, “How strong a combat power can they exert？”

Ye Hen said solemnly, “The strongest can reach the Third Layer of the Dao Source Realm, and the weakest is also the First Layer of the Dao Source Realm！”

A sound of inhaling cold air rang out, and everyone looked at Ye Hen in disbelief.

If what he said was true, then these more than thirty puppets here were equivalent to more than thirty powerful Dao Source Realm experts, among which there were no shortage of those at the third level of the Dao Source Realm.

What a powerful combat force this was!

And this was only the combat force of the puppets, not counting the strength of the martial artists who controlled the puppets.

If a martial artist at the first level of the Dao Source Realm could control a puppet at the third level of the Dao Source Realm, then even when facing an enemy at the peak of the Dao Source Realm, he should also have the strength to fight.

The Ghost Ancestor said in horror, “The puppet dao of your sect is so remarkable, and yet there are still people who want to seek other cultivation methods and secret techniques to replace it. They are simply short-sighted and do not know how lucky they are！”

Ye Hen said dejected “Our sect no longer has the techniques and secret arts to control these puppets. Now they are just placed here.”

the Thousand Leaves Sect also fell silent, losing their previous pride and feeling depressed.

“Let’s not talk too much nonsense. Young Master Yang and all the honored guests have come from afar. Our sect has prepared some light wine to welcome you and wash away your dust. Please don’t decline. This way, please！” Ye Hen quickly changed the topic, obviously not wanting to continue talking about this sad topic.

Yang Kai and the others naturally would not decline. Since the other party had good intentions, it would be inappropriate to decline. They followed Ye Hen into the main hall.

Although the high-level martial artists of the Thousand Leaves Sect didn’t know why their Sect Master valued Yang Kai and the others so much and even went out of seclusion personally to welcome them, they didn’t dare to ask more questions. At the banquet, they were very polite and toasted frequently. For a while, the host and guests had a great time.

Yang Kai and Ye Hen sat together. He didn’t show any restraint and was also extremely forthright. Whenever someone toasted, he would drink it up readily, making people feel that his disposition was open-minded and he was a person who could be befriended.

After three rounds of drinking, the music ended and the people dispersed.

Yang Kai and the others were arranged to rest in a certain main hall on this main peak.

Several people occupied the entire palace. Except for some serving servants and maids, the disciples of the Thousand Leaves Sect had all retreated.

Chi Yue and the others all went to rest respectively. Yang Kai, under the guidance of that maid, also came to his own side room. After instructing that maid not to disturb without summons, Yang Kai then set prohibitions, enveloping his room.

Immediately, he waved his hand, and a graceful and beautiful young woman appeared out of thin air in front of him.

Hua Qingsi turned her head and took a look, and said dissatisfiedly： “I was just cultivating to a critical moment. Why did you call me out？”

Now the spiritual energy in the Little Mysterious Realm is extremely abundant. Except that the laws of heaven and earth are not yet perfect, the cultivation environment is even better than the Heaven-level cultivation holy land of the Star God Palace. During this period of time, Hua Qingsi and Zhang Ruoxi have been enjoying themselves in it.

Especially Zhang Ruoxi, her strength has been rising steadily and she has actually broken through the Void King Realm. This really makes Yang Kai look at her with new eyes. After the mysterious bloodline power in her body awakened, Zhang Ruoxi is simply like a different person.

Although Hua Qingsi has not broken through, her own source power has become much purer during this period of time. It can be regarded as laying a good foundation, which will definitely be of great use for her to break through to Emperor Venerable in the future.

She is naturally a little unhappy that Yang Kai suddenly interrupted her cultivation.

“How is Sister Hua’s cultivation？” Yang Kai asked with interest. The stronger Hua Qingsi’s strength is, the greater the help to him. Naturally, he hopes that Hua Qingsi can be promoted to Emperor Venerable earlier.

If so, then it would be equivalent to having an Emperor Venerable Realm fighter by his side, and he could beat whoever he wanted to beat.

Hua Qingsi frowned slightly and said, “It’s still a little bit short. There is always a feeling of being a little bit short. Maybe the opportunity hasn’t come yet.”

Her tone was a little annoyed. After all, Yang Kai had even given her the precious Taimiao Pill to take. If she couldn’t be promoted to the Emperor Venerable Realm anymore, it would be unjustifiable.
