Yuan Region
This is the area dominated by the Yuan Gate. As the most powerful super sect in the Eastern Xuan Region, the territory governed by the Yuan Gate surpasses even that of the Dao Sect. The Yuan Gate itself is located at the very center of the Yuan Region, revered by countless emperors and kings.
Deep within the Yuan Gate, three floating mountains emit endless rays of light, like suns illuminating the entire sect. These mountains are sacred grounds for countless Yuan Gate disciples, as they are where the three Yuan Gate sect leaders meditate in seclusion.
On the rightmost mountain, a broken-topped stone tower stands, weathered and ancient, bearing the marks of time. At the top of this tower, a figure in a purple-gold robe sits cross-legged, as still as an old monk in meditation.
Around the elder, there is no hint of energy fluctuation, but a closer look would reveal that the energy of heaven and earth subtly moves with his breath.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the elder suddenly opened his eyes.
"Boom!"
Instantly, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and strong winds howled, causing the leaves on the mountain to dance wildly. The figure had silver hair and deep, aged eyes, but his face was as smooth as a baby's, a clear sign of being crane-haired yet youthful in appearance.
The figure extended a hand from his robe, revealing six fragmented jade pieces. Each piece held the faint image of a face, the faces of the Yuan Gate members killed by Xiao Tian and his companions.
"How bold! To dare kill Yuan Gate elders!" The silver-haired figure's eyes flashed with a golden light. A beam of gold shot from his forehead, tearing through the space in front of him before disappearing.
On Magic Sound Mountain
Xiao Tian and Little Marten were quietly waiting. Suddenly, Xiao Tian opened his eyes and said, "He's here!"
"Rip!"
A crack appeared in the air, and a golden figure stepped through. This figure immediately noticed Xiao Tian and Little Marten.
"Dao Sect's Xiao Tian? A Heaven Demon Marten?" the figure said with surprise. "I didn't expect you to kill our Yuan Gate elders and still stay here. Quite bold of you!"
After a pause, he continued, "Since you wish to remain, then stay forever!"
Little Marten's eyes glinted with ferocity as he sneered, "Old dog, you're just a Yuan Spirit projection. How dare you act arrogant!"
"My Yuan Spirit projection may not be able to handle a Heaven Demon Marten of your level, but I still have my true self!" As the projection spoke, the space beside it twisted, and a slender, white hand reached out, tearing the void. A figure stepped through the torn space.
As soon as he appeared, the world seemed to dim, and a terrifying pressure radiated, making everyone feel an urge to kneel.
"I didn't expect Ren Yuanzi to come out. Should I intervene?" Far away in the Dao Sect, Ying Xuanzi frowned inside his bamboo hut. He couldn't understand why Xiao Tian and the Heaven Demon Marten stayed instead of leaving immediately.
"Could they have a hidden trump card?" he wondered, deciding to wait and see.
In the scene, Ren Yuanzi didn't attack immediately but looked at Little Marten and asked, "Heaven Demon Marten, you should know the grudge between your clan and the Yuan Gate. So, I wonder, who gave you the courage to come to the Eastern Xuan Region and kill Yuan Gate elders?"
Little Marten coldly replied, "Ren Yuanzi, the Yuan Gate only dares to cower in the Eastern Xuan Region. If you leave here, you can no longer show off your power."
"I indeed wouldn't leave the Eastern Xuan Region easily..." Ren Yuanzi chuckled, a faint, chilling light in his eyes. "Since you're here, don't leave..."
"If we want to leave, you can't stop us!" Xiao Tian said, as a space portal appeared.
"Does an ant think it can defy the heavens?" Ren Yuanzi waved his sleeve, causing the surrounding space to twist.
But when this power hit the space portal, it neither closed nor broke it.
"Whoosh!"
Taking advantage of this moment, Xiao Tian and Little Marten entered the portal. As soon as they were inside, the portal began to close.
"They even have a space treasure!" Ren Yuanzi exclaimed and quickly followed them into the portal.
Believing in his immense power, Ren Yuanzi was confident he could handle any surprises, even if the other two Yuan Gate leaders were summoned. He wasn't worried about any traps; he felt capable of escaping even from a trap set by a Reincarnation Realm expert.
As Ren Yuanzi entered, the portal sealed shut.
"Hmm?" Back at the Dao Sect, Ying Xuanzi noticed their auras disappear completely. "Where did they go?" He searched within a radius of several tens of thousands of miles but found no trace of them.
Inside the Portal
"Didn't expect you to have a whole Dan River. Quite the fortune!" Inside the portal, Ren Yuanzi saw the Dan River.
For someone of Ren Yuanzi's level, a Dan River held little importance. "Let's see what schemes you have!"
Watching Xiao Tian and Little Marten exit through the other side, he followed.
Outside the portal, Xiao Tian shouted, "Master, Ziyan, Elder Candle, the enemy is here."
With his call, Yao Lao, Ziyan, and Elder Candle descended, ready to face Ren Yuanzi.
Knowing the consequences of killing Yuan Gate elders from the original story, Xiao Tian had prepared. After obtaining the Earth Heart Birth Essence, he returned to the Dou Qi Continent through the portal and brought back Yao Lao and Elder Candle, both at the Half-Saint level, equivalent to the Reincarnation Realm.
Together with Ziyan, who was also training in the space, they had the equivalent of three Reincarnation Realm experts. Xiao Tian had anticipated Ren Yuanzi's caution and the potential summoning of the other two sect leaders.
Thanks to Yao Lao and the others, Xiao Tian dared to wait at Magic Sound Mountain. With the space portal, they could safely retreat if needed, even if the three Yuan Gate leaders appeared.
But if only one or two came, they wouldn't let them go easily.
