Chapter 907: Chapter 879: Descending the Mountain

Although the external world was rumored to be dangerous among ordinary Holy Mountain disciples, it couldn’t quell the enthusiasm most Holy Mountain disciples had for it.

They were young, the new generation of the Holy Mountain.

They were full of curiosity about the world outside, and they also wanted to see what it was truly like out there.

Rather than being trapped on this mountain for their entire lives.

The Holy Mountain was, nominally, a single mountain.

But in reality, it was a vast expanse of mountain ranges, and it was precisely because of this that so many Holy Mountain disciples could live and train here.

However, no matter how large a mountain range is, it’s still just a mountain, incomparable to the bustling, colorful world outside.

Among these disciples, many were avid readers, and the accounts of the outside world they read in books only deepened their yearning for it.

The Holy Mountain was also an Enchanted World.

Moreover, its area was roughly the size of an ordinary prefecture-level city, but for young people whose hearts were filled with dreams as vast as the stars and seas, it was still too small.

Within the Holy Mountain, disciples signing up to see the outside world formed long lines.

Of course, in the end, only a handful would gain permission to venture out for training.

Just the requirement of achieving Yellow Rank strength was enough to block many people from going.

It must be noted that although they had been cultivating since childhood,

cultivation depended on talent, and among the newest batch of the Eighty-Fifth Generation disciples, only a handful had reached Yellow Rank.

Of course, this included the former Saint Heir, An Qin, who had once disguised herself as a man.

"You have earned the qualifications to leave. This is your honor. This time, we are to act as the Holy Mountain’s advance team. While undergoing training in the external world, we must also establish new footholds for the Holy Mountain’s future arrival."

"Each of you has been meticulously selected as elites. I hope you will cherish this rare opportunity."

The group was led by an elder who looked like a small old man.

"Luo Kai, the elder with the weakest cultivation among the Holy Mountain Elders. However, he has just recently achieved Earth Level strength." In the crowd, someone lifted their head slightly to glance at the elder, then quickly lowered it again.

"I trust that before your departure, you’ve adequately prepared. What I must tell you now is— the outside world is not as fantastic as you may imagine." Luo Kai’s tone carried some weight.

"The people outside may appear very weak... hmm, weaker than any of you. But do not fail to respect them just because they are weak."

As he said this, Luo Kai seemed to remember something. A fleeting trace of fear passed through his eyes.

"Although we live secluded in the Enchanted World, some reclusive experts choose to hide themselves in the colorful external world. Once you leave, you must be vigilant. Never provoke someone you shouldn’t! Do you understand?" Luo Kai said gravely.

Upon hearing Luo Kai’s words, everyone nodded in unison.

"Yes, Elder!"

As a true major sect, the Holy Mountain was very strict in its disciples’ education, and it was rare to see anyone spoiled or arrogant among them.

They belonged to the Holy Mountain, the invincible Holy Mountain!

And anyone who emerged from the Holy Mountain had to be the best of the best!

Seeing the expressions on the disciples’ faces, Luo Kai couldn’t help but smile in satisfaction.

He had seen too many disciples who were initially disciplined falter once they descended the mountain, influenced by the flashy outside world to become careless and arrogant.

Such people were always the ones in the greatest danger.

Previously, Luo Kai had no way to monitor such people, but this time, he himself would be overseeing them. He was confident no issues would occur again.

"This time, there will be no mistakes!" Though Luo Kai was an Earth-level expert, he couldn’t shake off a bit of apprehension.

After all, this matter was of great significance.

And as the advance team, they could not afford any lapses in their vigilance.

"Move out! Descend the mountain!"

The group quickly stepped into the Teleportation Array.

As the array began to glow, the numerous strange stones placed around it also started to flicker.

It was clearly visible that as the glow of the array intensified, the light from those stones began to dim.

Finally, with a blinding flash of light, the group vanished into the array.

One disciple watched the vanished party with envy. "When will I get the chance to go down the mountain and see for myself?"

Behind the disciple, a smile spread across the face of an elder. "Soon. Before long, our Holy Mountain might truly rule the world."

However, just then, another disciple hurried over in a panic.

"Elder! Something’s wrong!"

"Hmm?"

The elder frowned and glanced behind him. "What’s the matter? Why such haste?"

"Senior Brother Chen Dehua was just found unconscious in his room!"

"Chen Dehua?" The elder’s expression shifted slightly. "If I remember correctly, wasn’t he supposed to be one of the disciples going down the mountain?"

"This is bad!" The elder suddenly realized something. "Not long ago, I personally counted the numbers! Whoever knocked Chen Dehua unconscious must already be among them!"

Though shocked, the elder kept his expression composed.

"Alright, I understand. Ensure Chen Dehua recovers well. Leave the rest to me."

"Yes, Elder."

Once the disciples had dispersed, the elder immediately attempted to contact Luo Kai.

"Bzzz... bzzz..."

As the group emerged from the Teleportation Array, aside from Luo Kai, it was everyone’s first time using such a method, and they stumbled around dizzily. Some even clutched their mouths, nearly vomiting.

It was known that the power of the Teleportation Array was no small matter. Much like experiencing seasickness or motion sickness, first-timers had difficulty adjusting to it.

Even Luo Kai, who hadn’t used a Teleportation Array in years, felt somewhat uncomfortable and was regulating his breathing with his eyes closed.

Meanwhile, he failed to notice that within the group, a figure was quietly sneaking away into the distance.

"Hmm?"

Just then, a small crackling sound arose behind Luo Kai.

"What’s wrong?" Upon hearing the sound, Luo Kai suppressed his discomfort and asked.

"Luo Kai! There’s been an incident! Someone knocked out a disciple originally assigned to descend and impersonated them to infiltrate the group!" The voice of the elder on the other end carried a heavy tone.

"Hmm? Who would dare such a thing? Still... the disciples of the Holy Mountain are all one of our own. For someone to incapacitate another and take their place, they must have some skill. It shouldn’t be that serious," Luo Kai waved it off.

"It wouldn’t matter if it were anyone else. But this individual might very well be... An Ze!"

Luo Kai’s expression darkened immediately.

He turned back and scanned the group, noticing that indeed someone was missing.

"After them! Pursue!"
