Chapter 165 Experience of Leaving the Sect
Yin Wuqing's words were low and heavy, revealing an imperceptible worry between the lines.
There seemed to be an inexplicable gloomy aura quietly spreading around him. That aura was like a substance, making people feel a heavy pressure. This gloomy aura was like a layer of gauze, quietly covering the surrounding space, making the surrounding air become unusually heavy.
Yin Wuqing stared at Shangguan Jiannan closely, with a hint of barely perceptible worry and doubt in his eyes. His voice was low and serious, as if carrying an irresistible majesty: "You must think clearly, this mission is full of dangers, and if you are not careful, you will fall into an irretrievable situation." As he finished speaking, the air around him seemed to be infected by this heaviness, becoming dull and depressing.
"Teacher, I have made up my mind." Shangguan Jiannan's voice was calm and firm, without the slightest wavering. His words were like the breeze, but they carried a force that could not be ignored. His eyes were clear and bright, revealing a determination and firmness that could not be easily ignored.
Yin Wuqing wanted to persuade him again, but after meeting those determined eyes, he chose to remain silent. He looked at Shangguan Jiannan deeply, then nodded gently, as if to indicate that he understood the other party's decision.
"Be careful." In the end, Yin Wuqing could only sigh and gently warned. His tone revealed his concern and worry for Shangguan Jiannan, and also expressed his importance and expectations for this mission.
Shangguan Jiannan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. He knew the importance and danger of this mission, but he believed in his ability and determination. He would do his best to complete this mission and live up to Yin Wuqing's expectations.
Shangguan Jiannan nodded slightly to show that he would remember it.
...After several days of preparation, Shangguan Jiannan embarked on a lonely journey.
In the early morning, all things wake up in the morning light, dewdrops dot the tips of leaves, and the air is filled with freshness and hope.
He was dressed in simple cloth, not the iconic attire of the Tianjian Sect. He carried a long sword on his back, and his figure was agile and neat.
He leaped down from the towering mountain top of the Tianjian Sect. In a few breaths, he was far away from the sect, leaving behind a free and easy back.
On the mountain path, the disciples passing by cast surprised glances at him, with both confusion and admiration in their eyes.
Shangguan Jiannan's reputation in the Tianjian Sect became even more famous because of his calmness in the face of Guo Cheng's anger that day.
At this moment, several faint lights surrounded him, as if guiding him by stars, and his speed was so fast that it was astonishing.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Shangguan Jiannan's figure quickly disappeared outside the mountain gate, as if he had merged into the vast world.
On the road, he walked steadily. The scorching sun was high in the sky, but it failed to weaken his will and determination in the slightest.
This journey is destined to be full of unknowns and challenges, but Shangguan Jiannan is ready to face everything.
The scorching sun was like fire, baking the surrounding air and causing it to slightly distort. The earth seemed to be licked by invisible flames, leaving a scorched yellow color.
A young man in grey cloth walked with steady steps. A faint red light flashed from time to time between the scabbard of the long sword on his back, revealing that he was something extraordinary.
Shangguan Jiannan, with a clear purpose in mind, embarked on the journey to Duanyun Mountains, which used to be the edge of the Netherworld, but now is an excellent place for monsters to roam and for warriors to undergo trials.
There are dangers lurking on every side of the Broken Cloud Mountains, but there are also opportunities.
Every day, there are fierce clashes between the strong and the monsters, and legends are forged between life and death.
For Shangguan Jiannan, this is the perfect stage for him to seek breakthroughs and hone his sword skills.
He gave up riding a fast horse and chose to travel on foot. Firstly, he had plenty of time and did not need to rush; secondly, he hoped to meet heroes from all walks of life through this journey, broaden his horizons and gain more knowledge.
After ten days of arduous journey, Shangguan Jiannan finally arrived at Dahuang City. This city, which was prosperous because of its proximity to the Duanyun Mountains, was his second visit.
Despite this, he was still curious about every corner of the city.
Wandering among the bustling crowd, Shangguan Jiannan first found a tavern and had a hearty meal to relieve the fatigue of the journey.
Afterwards, he found an inn and planned to have a good rest and recover his strength. After all, the next challenge would be even more difficult.
The next morning, Shangguan Jiannan was full of energy, as if he had been reborn.
He did not rush to set off, but strolled to the market town of Dahuang City.
This is the gathering place for warriors and businessmen, and also the exchange center for information and resources inside and outside the Duanyun Mountains.
Thanks to its unique geographical location, Dahuang City rose rapidly, and its prosperity was almost as prosperous as Tianxuan City, the capital of the Apocalypse Dynasty.
Shangguan Jiannan knew very well that going deep into the Duanyun Mountains alone was fraught with risks, and even a mid-stage Sword King Realm expert like him had to be extremely cautious.
Therefore, the purpose of his trip was to find a reliable team of warriors to work together to face unknown challenges.
In the market town, people were coming and going, and there were all kinds of stalls, but he was not interested in these things. He was only focused on finding strong people who could become his teammates.
With a plan in mind, Shangguan Jiannan took more determined steps and moved towards his goal.
As he stepped into this bustling market town, Shangguan Jiannan couldn't help but feel a layer of gloom shrouded his heart.
The unknown and danger of the Broken Cloud Mountains were like an undercurrent, making him extremely cautious in every step he took.
He knew that exploring that unknown land alone would be tantamount to putting himself in a desperate situation.
So, his eyes naturally fell on those teams formed spontaneously by warriors. They worked hand in hand, faced life and death together, fought against the monsters with the power of the team, and shared the fruits of victory.
The market town was bustling with people, and the sounds of various hawking and conversations intertwined together, forming a unique symphony of the city.
Shangguan Jiannan moved among the crowd, his brows furrowed and his eyes sharp, carefully searching for information about warrior teams that were recruiting new members.
He knew that joining such a team would not only increase his chances of survival, but would also allow him to hone his martial arts in actual combat.
Finally, in a relatively noisy area, he found his target—a group of warriors were gathered there, loudly proclaiming their team's strength and achievements, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Shangguan Jiannan's attention was instantly attracted by a tall and burly man. The man stood there like an unshakable mountain, emitting a powerful aura from his whole body.
He nodded secretly in his heart and decided to join the team.
However, just as he was about to step forward to ask, an accident occurred.
Not far away, a young man in a blue robe also stopped and his eyes were also fixed on the team.
Shangguan Jiannan's heart trembled. He realized that the man in blue robe might also come to join the team. The two of them chose the same target by coincidence.
At this moment, there seemed to be a subtle sense of competition in the air.
Shangguan Jiannan did not back down, but instead became more determined.
He knows very well that the path of a warrior is full of challenges and competition, and only by constantly proving himself can he go further on this path.
So he took a deep breath, took a step forward, and walked towards the team, ready to meet the upcoming challenges and opportunities.
