Chapter 699

Under the protection of Cang Yan and others, Yang Kai was advancing and charging in that chaotic battlefield with ease.

A team composed of four extraordinary realm level 3 powerhouses was also a rather powerful force. The people around seemed to be aware that Cang Yan and others were not to be trifled with, and naturally would not provoke them for no reason.

Screams rang out one after another. In such a large-scale melee, naturally there were people who were injured and died. Blood and severed limbs were flying around, extremely tragic.

The distance of several dozen miles was covered in just half a stick of incense.

Some people had already arrived at the foot of the mountain peak one step ahead. When Yang Kai and others arrived here, they were just seeing those people hurriedly rushing towards Looking Sky Cliff.

Cang Yan turned his head and looked around, asking in a deep voice, “Little nephew, is the person who said he would cooperate with you here？”

“Not yet.” Yang Kai shook his head. He didn’t find the figure of Zhai Yao.

“Should we go up？” Li Wan was a little impatient.

“Wait a little longer.” Cang Yan frowned. “If the little nephew’s inference is not wrong, that kid must know some secrets that others don’t know. If we act with him, we can also gain some.

The person who rushes up the mountain peak first doesn’t necessarily laugh to the end. There are potential dangers everywhere on that mountain peak. Whether they can successfully reach Wangtian Cliff is also an unknown.”

Standing still and waiting quietly, from time to time, one or two teams of powerhouses rushed past beside him, all excitedly pouring into the mountain forest.

After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Zhai Yao’s voice suddenly came over： “Brother Yang！”

“Over here！” Yang Kai quickly waved his hand and carefully sized up the lineup he brought, and couldn’t help but brighten his eyes.

He found that he had somewhat underestimated Zhai Yao’s ability. He actually brought seven people over.

Six of them were powerhouses belonging to the three races of humans, demons, and monsters, all at the second or third level of the Transcendent Realm. There was also one person whose cultivation level Yang Kai couldn’t see through. This person’s head and face were covered by a cloak, and it seemed that he was not very willing to show his true face.

But judging from the skin exposed on his body, this person was an old man.

While looking, Yang Kai’s expression moved. He faintly guessed something, but didn’t expose it.

Cang Yan and the others, as well as this batch of powerhouses from the City Lord’s Mansion, sized each other up and were all quite satisfied with the cultivation levels of the other side, feeling that the other side would not hold them back. Immediately, their expressions became joyous.

“Everyone, this matter is of great importance. I hope we can cooperate sincerely and not end up unhappy. Brother Yang and I get along very well.” Zhai Yao said with a smile.

The six powerhouses he brought nodded in unison： “Young Master Zhai, don’t worry.”

Cang Yan also said: “Little brother, you’re being polite. However, just to be cautious. I still venture to confirm one thing. You really don’t need the liquid medicine of the Millennium Demon Flower, right?

“Yes, I have already explained this to Brother Yang.” Zhai Yao nodded.

“Well, then there’s no problem.” Cang Yan seemed satisfied. “Since that’s the case, let’s go up.”

“Not in a hurry.” Zhai Yao shook his head with a smile. “Wait a little longer. It’s not time yet.”

“Wait a little longer?” Cang Yan frowned. Although he also knew that this kind of thing couldn’t be rushed. But now that the celestial and terrestrial has appeared and the Millennium Demon Flower is about to bloom so many people have rushed up. If we delay any longer, I’m afraid we won’t even be able to get a sip of the soup.”

It’s still early. What’s happening now is just a precursor to the celestial and terrestrial anomalies. “Zhai Yao didn’t explain too much. His expression was relaxed and he didn’t look nervous at all.

Cang Yan and the others were suspicious and puzzled. After thinking for a while, they asked: Little brother. It’s not that I don’t believe you, but how much do you know about this Millennium Demon Flower?

“Well, I know more than any of you. Hehe.” Zhai Yao smiled slightly.

While they were talking, Yang Kai was looking at the old man whose face was covered by a cloak with suspicion. He felt that this person was Zhai Yao’s teacher！

The reason why Zhai Yao knew so much about the Thousand-Year Devil Flower was precisely because of him.

The old man seemed to have noticed Yang Kai’s gaze as well. The corner of his mouth slightly raised an arc and he said, “Is this little brother the one who won the final victory in the Pill Refining Competition that day？”

Yang Kai nodded slightly.

“Well, the younger generation is awesome.” The old man praised.

Cang Yan and the others looked at him suspiciously. They really couldn’t figure out who this person was and his tone seemed a bit big.

“Yang Kai!” Suddenly, a came from behind. Yang Kai turned his head and saw Mina and Elder Du rushing over. Before they even arrived they enthusiastically waved and shouted.

When they got closer, Yang Kai looked at her speechlessly and said, “Why did you come here？”

Elder Du helplessly said, This little girl is really not worry-free. She has to come and watch the excitement. I couldn’t persuade her no matter what so I came with her.”

“You’re too much of a mischief！” Yang Kai scolded with a straight face.

Mina couldn’t help but stick out her fragrant tongue and said coy “I just came to take a look. I won’t go up and there won’t be any danger.”

“Well, you guys be careful.” Yang Kai sighed.

Mina looked around and giggled, “Aren’t you going up? They all seem to have squeezed over.”

“Waiting,” Yang Kai replied casually.

“Waiting for what？”

“Waiting for the real vision of heaven and earth to appear.”

“The real vision of heaven and earth？” Du Wan was also stunned, obviously knowing very little about the Millennium Demon Flower. After saying a word, his gaze suddenly fixed on the old man with his face covered by a cloak, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. After pondering for a while, he asked hesitantly, “May I ask your surname？”

His tone was filled with a cautious sense of nervousness.

Yang Kai’s gaze couldn’t help but flicker.

“Hehe, there’s no need to mention the old man’s name,” the old man said with a light smile.

Du Wan’s body trembled, and his eyes suddenly widened. He looked at him in disbelief and said in a trembling voice, “You… you are…”

“Shh…” Zhai Yao quickly put up a finger.

Du Wan’s face was extremely excited, with a pious look like a pilgrimage, and he said respectfully, “Disciple Du Wan, greetings to the master！”

Yang Kai, Cang Yan and the others were stunned on the spot, all dumbfounded.

Du Wan is the head of the Alchemist Association in Jushi City and a famous figure throughout the continent. After all, Saint-level alchemists are extremely rare. An alchemist like him will be treated as a distinguished guest and receive wherever he goes. It has always been the case that only others are polite and respectful to him. But now, this famous Saint-level alchemist is treating another person as a senior and calling himself a disciple.

This is simply too shocking.

Everyone was dumbfounded, even including the six Transcendent Realm powerhouses brought by Zhai Yao. They were only acting on orders and didn’t know much about the identities of Zhai Yao and this old man.

The old man let out a bitter laugh： “You don’t have to do this. It will be seen by others. The reason why I cover my head and face is to avoid attracting attention.”

Du Wan woke up like a dream, and sweat instantly oozed from his forehead. He blamed himself and said： “It was the disciple’s negligence. I hope the master will not blame me.”

“It doesn’t matter.” The old man slowly waved his hand and said with a light smile： “How did you recognize me？”

“Doesn’t the master remember？” Du Wan’s expression was excited. “When the disciple was young, he received some guidance from the master. Although it was only for a short ten days, the disciple has always remembered the master’s appearance and voice.”

“So that’s it.” The old man nodded slightly.

Cang Yan’s expression also suddenly changed, and he lost his voice and said： “It’s actually him！”

After hearing Du Wan’s words, Cang Yan suddenly realized what a respected figure this old man was, and also somewhat understood why Augur and the others took such good care of Zhai Yao, and even sent six Supernatural Jing powerhouses to escort him to Wangtian Cliff.

It turns out that Zhai Yao’s teacher is such a powerful and influential big shot！

Only such a person can teach a disciple like Zhai Yao. At this moment, Cang Yan understood.

“Who is it？” Fei Yu asked softly, and Li Wan and Fei Jian also looked at him curiously.

Cang Yan looked at the old man and saw that he didn’t mean to stop him. His lips moved slightly a few times.

Fei Yu and the others were dumbfounded.

Yang Kai also understood Cang Yan’s lip language.

Old Man Tiancang！

The only top-level alchemist in the world who has been respected by the human, demon, and demon races. At the same time, like Yang Kai, he also has the Divine Sense Fire.

The reason why Cang Yan recognized his identity was entirely because Du Wan had told him when chatting with him that he had once studied the art of alchemy under Old Man Tiancang for ten days.

Now that Du Wan mentioned this matter, Cang Yan naturally reacted.

Everyone was extremely excited.

The legendary Old Man Tiancang was right in front of them. Cang Yan and the others unconsciously restrained their powerful auras and became respectful, and their eyes were all filled with expressions of worship.

Yang Kai was also sizing up this legendary strange person secretly, his mood a bit complicated.

People who possess the Divine Consciousness Flame are extremely rare. Alchemists who possess the Divine Consciousness Flame are even fewer. I’m afraid only he and this master in front of him have it in the whole world.

This common ground made Yang Kai want to inquire about the mysteries of the Divine Consciousness Flame from him.

His current use of the Divine Consciousness Flame is still a bit rough, but this master in front of him is different. He has lived for who knows how many years. Whether it’s experience or knowledge, he is more abundant than Yang Kai. If he can talk to him, Yang Kai believes he will definitely gain great benefits.

But he is a bit unsure whether he can reveal the secret that he has the Divine Consciousness Flame to the other party.

Just as he was deep in thought, the old man Tiancang laughed and said, “Since I have been recognized by you, then this old man will not pretend to be mysterious anymore.”

Saying this, he raised his head and revealed his face.

“Master, this disciple has only wanted to see you again in this life and be able to listen to your teachings face to face. Now finally…” Du Wan was so excited that he couldn’t add more. His voice even choked up.

“After this matter is settled, let’s talk. You have achieved what you have today. This old man is also very gratified. This old man only taught you for ten days back then, but you were able to reach this point. This is all your own ability.” The old man Tiancang said kindly.

Du Wan was flattered and quickly thanked him.

“Don’t call me master anymore. It won’t be good if others hear it. Well, my original name is Li Rui. You can just call me Old Li.”

“Yes.” Du Wan replied respectfully.
