Chapter 1367 Nine Immortal Clans
1367 Nine Immortal Clans
"We"re here!" Kulas declared when they arrived at an empty plot of land that stretched for miles after traveling for almost an entire day.
Tian Yang calmly a.n.a.lyzed the scene before him.
There were hundreds if not thousands of people already gathered there with nine distinctive groups of people at the very front, all of them standing before a ma.s.sive gate laid on the ground.
This gate appeared to be made of stone, and it had the word "Han" engraved on it. Furthermore, it was laid directly on the floor, almost as though it was the doorway to an underground world.
"Those people standing in the very front are from the Nine Immortal Clans," said Kulas.
Hearing this, Tian Yang immediately memorized the faces of everyone from the Nine Immortal Clans, as well as their distinctive uniforms.
"These b.a.s.t.a.r.ds are responsible for Xiao Li"s death…" Tian Yang subconsciously emitted killing intent through his gaze.
When Kulas noticed this, he immediately slapped Tian Yang in the back and muttered in a low voice, "Directing killing intent at the Immortal Clans, are you insane? You"re a dead man if they noticed it!"
"Sorry, that wasn"t my intention…" Tian Yang apologized, kicking himself for failing to control his emotions.
"I don"t know why you"re acting like this, but you need to keep yourself in control, or you"re dead before you even step foot inside the tomb."
"I know." Tian Yang clenched his fists.
Unbeknownst to Tian Yang, some of the experts from the Nine Immortal Clans had noticed his killing intent, but when they saw that he was a mere Spirit Lord, they immediately disregarded him, as they saw no threat in him.
"Let"s get in line," Kulas said to him a moment later.
Tian Yang and Kulas went to stand behind the others.
There was a large gap between the Nine Immortal Clans and the others.
As time pa.s.sed, more and more people showed up to the scene. However, not everyone went to the back of the line like Tian Yang.
If these people belonged to influential families or were renowned figures in the Divine Heavens, they would move to the front, standing directly behind the Nine Immortal Clans.
In some special cases, the Nine Immortal Clans made exceptions for several individuals, allowing them to enter within the first seven days.
The rule "first come first serve" did not apply here. If one had the strength to back them up, they could easily move to the front of the line. After all, what could the rest of them do besides blame themselves for lacking in strength?
A day later, the moment arrived for the tomb to be unveiled, drawing hundreds of thousands of cultivators to witness the historical event.
The Nine Immortal Clans" representative stood before the door on the ground, but before opening it, he declared in a loud voice, "As agreed upon, the Nine Immortal Clans will enter the tomb first. Regardless if you are a sect leader or a rogue cultivator, everyone else must wait seven full days before they are allowed to enter, or they will immediately be killed— there will be no exceptions."
The representative proceeded to open the door by placing an item on it.
The doors opened inwardly the next moment, unveiling the entrance to another dimension.
Suddenly, before anyone from the Nine Immortal Clans could even move, several dozen figures from the crowd behind them rushed toward the entrance.
"Let"s see if you can stop all of us at once!"
However, before these individuals could even get close to the entrance, several experts from the Nine Immortal Clans moved with such swiftness that all of the rebels were slain faster than one could even blink their eyes.
These rebels were not weak by any means. Most of them were Spirit Emperors and above with a few even at the Divine Realm. Nonetheless, they were all slain with a single strike.
Most of the people there didn"t even bat an eyelid after witnessing such a scene, almost as if they were all expecting a few rebels to appear.
"Does anyone else want to try?" A calm voice resounded a moment later, carrying the pressure of an Immortal.
The voice was met with silence.
A few moments later, the people from the Nine Immortal Clans jumped into the entrance, disappearing into the ground.
Over the next several days, even more people arrived at the sight.
"There are millions of people here…" Tian Yang swallowed nervously, as he"d never seen so many experts gathered in one place before.
Suddenly, he sensed a familiar presence appearing above him.
"Huh?"
When he looked up, he could see a woman staring at him with an enraged expression on her beautiful face.
"S-Senior Sun?!" He immediately recognized her as Elder Sun.
"As I thought, you"d disappeared to this place…" Elder Sun landed in front of him.
"What are you doing here, Senior?"
"You dare ask me such a question after disappearing for nearly a year?! Do you want me to beat you right now?!" Elder Sun reprimanded him as she grabbed one of his ears and began pulling on it with immense strength.
"A-Ah! Stop! You"ll tear it right off!" Tian Yang cried out loud.
"If that"ll stop you from doing any more reckless things, I"ll tear both of them off!"
"..."
Kulas stared at their performance with an entertained face.
"Who"s this beautiful fairy?" he asked.
"She"s a sect elder from my sect…" Tian Yang said.
"And who are you?" Elder Sun looked at Kulas.
"I"m Kulas," he smiled.
"He"s my savior…" Tian Yang added.
"Savior?" Elder Sun raised an eyebrow.
Kulas shook his head and said, "I didn"t do much, honestly. He did most of the surviving. I just happened to come across him and fed him some spare medicine I had."
"I"m not surprised. He"s even more tenacious than a c.o.c.kroach." Elder Sun said.
She suddenly released Tian Yang"s ear and gave a courteous bow to Kulas, "Regardless, I thank you for saving him."
"Please raise your head, Senior. I only did what was right."
Elder Sun turned to look at Tian Yang and demanded in a cold voice, "You better explain to me everything that happened!"
