Chapter 114: Continent
After the death of the Infernal Wolf, the Original Boat continued on its way as if nothing had happened.
Although they met a few more monsters and a few passing cultivators that wanted to rob them during the rest of the journey, to the disciple's delight, nothing unexpected happened.
In fact, after the first time, there wasn't even a need for an elder to step forward and take action personally.
Instead, they just poured their power into the Original Boat and were able to kill anyone they happened to meet on the way.
Such a majestic appearance made the inner disciple's shine, wishing that there will also be a day that they are strong enough to travel unimpeded through the sky.
With no accidents taking place, the Original Boat flew forward at an extreme high speed, leaving everything behind it.
Chu Wuyao couldn't know just how much distance they had traveled, but she was pretty sure that they had covered a distance larger than the diameter of Earth.
Before long, Chu Wuyao felt that the Original Boat was landing on the ground and followed the elder's instructions to fly off the ship.
While she was following the other disciples, she still had some time to look around and observe the surrounding area.
Not surprisingly, the disciples of the Original Desire Sect were not the only people here, as there were six more flying vessels.
These vessels were different, some in the shape of a ship, some in the shape of a palace and one of them was even in a shape of a giant sword.
There was a huge flag on top of each of these vessels, depicting a sword, two half-moons, a palace, etc..
Chu Wuyao recognized these flags as the symbols of each of the major forces and instantly understood their identities.
At the front of each vessel there were some cultivators standing on the ground, observing each other carefully.
Although Chu Wuyao didn't extend her perception, she could see that all of these people were at the Shackles Realm and among them, there were some very powerful Shackles Realm cultivators.
The appearance of the disciples of the Original Desire Sect attracted some attention and most of the eyes landed on the five quasi-core disciples that were standing on the front of their team.
"Do you see? These are all disciples of the other major forces.", Zhao Peng, who stood right next to her spoke in a low voice, making Chu Wuyao wonder if there was nothing better for him to do than to be her guide.
Not knowing about Chu Wuyao's complaints, Zhao Peng thought that she was nervous and comforted her.
"Don't worry, although there are some conflicts between the major forces, you only have to be careful of the members of the Ice God Hall and the Dual Moon Sect."
Saying this, he seemed to remember something.
"Of course, you better not offend the disciples of the Sword Palace."
"Even though the Sword Palace's members are not aggressive, they actually have the highest combat power out of all the major forces.", Zhao Peng reminded her.
In response, Chu Wuyao could only nod her head to show that she understood, while she continued observing the disciples of the major forces.
Through her observation, Chu Wuyao discovered that although there were some small differences in their strength, in general, the strength each major force was roughly the same.
While she was observing other people, some people's eyes landed on her, but when they noticed that she was only at the Early Stage of the Shackles Realm, they didn't care much about her.
Not only did Chu Wuyao not mind, but she felt that this was for the best.
"It's better to let other people attract everyone's hatred.", she thought secretly, glancing at the five quasi-core disciples that stood at the front.
She didn't dare to explore their condition, but she could sense that just like she had previously heard, the strength of these people was extraordinary, many times that of Ren Sang who she had previously killed.
While the members of each major force were sizing each other up, trying to see who their future opponents would be, the elders of the respective forces were floating in the air just above them.
"Is everyone here already?", the elder of the Original Desire Sect looked around and found that indeed, apart from the people of the Calamity Cult and the Great Compassion Sect, everyone was already here.
"Hmph! Of course! Only your Original Desire Sect has kept us waiting for so long.", the female elder of the Ice God Hall spoke up, taking the opportunity to take a jab at him.
"Okay, okay. Everyone, now that we're here, let's not waste any more time. After all, these are the orders of the leaders."
Fortunately, the elder of the Blood God Palace stepped forward at the right time and stopped the two parties from fighting.
Surprisingly, despite the fact that the techniques and skills of the Blood God Palace were evil and extremely bloodthirsty, this elder looked very polite and approachable, completely unlike what an evil cultivator should look like.
Hearing his words, although the elder of the Ice God Hall wanted to fight, she could only swallow her next words.
For elders like them, the orders of their respective leaders were something they didn't disobey, like the law of heaven.
When the elder of the Blood God Palace saw this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and after looking at the rest of the people and received their approval, he waved his right hand.
Instantly, a massive blue gate appeared right in front of them, about 10 meters in height and 5 meters in length.
This gate looked quite ordinary and it didn't exude any aura, but there were seven grooves on the door's surface.
These grooves were in many different shapes, such as a sword, a cauldron, a flag, etc..
"It deserves to be something personally created by the leaders.", all the elders sighed and at the same time, they each took out a Magic Weapon and controlled it to fly into the matching groove.
"Click!"
A clicking sound was soon heard and under the elder's eyes, the door of the gate slowly opened, revealing a brilliant golden light behind it.
Just by taking a look inadvertently, the image of a holy figure with a pair of golden wings on its back flashed in their mind, making their eyes shine with a golden light.
Of course, with their extraordinary strength, they were all able to quickly snap out of that illusion and return to reality.
"Sure enough, it is an inheritance that the leaders are concerned about. It seems that the disciples are really lucky this time.", the elder of the Original Desire Sect sighed in emotion.
"Fellow Taoist, you're joking. Who doesn't know that such a valuable inheritance is bound to be accompanied by danger?"
"I'm afraid that of the people that go in, less than half will be able to survive and get out.", the elder of the Human Emperor Temple shook his head.
In response, the elder of the Original Desire Sect smiled slightly:
"Fellow Taoist, you're wrong. Although there is some danger, there should also be some precious opportunities during the inheritance."
"We all know very well that less than 1% of these disciples will be able to break through the Awakening Realm. Compared to dying later down the line, it is better for them to fight for a chance of survival right now. They can also lead the way for us."
His words surprisingly received the unanimous approval of the other people, as they nodded their heads in agreement.
It's as if they were doing their disciples a favor by allowing them to become cannon fodder.
"Okay, no more talking. Let's start.", the elder of the Blood God Palace said and waved his right hand, controlling the bodies of the disciples of the Blood God Palace and throwing them in.
Seeing his resolute actions, the other elders didn't hesitate and followed his lead, throwing the disciples of their force into the gate.
Among these disciples was Chu Wuyao, who found that she had lost control of her own body and was rapidly moving towards the strange blue gate.
She didn't resist, but allowed that invisible force to control her body, and before long, she had flown right into the gate.
The moment she stepped inside, Chu Wuyao found herself in a small dark place.
Just when she was wondering what was going on, the image of a continent appeared inexplicably in her mind.
This continent wasn't very large, but there were millions of living creatures inhabiting it, banding together and forming different forces.
Villages, cities, kingdoms, empires, etc..
These creatures were surprisingly able to wield extraordinary power, some of them having extremely strong physical bodies and some of them having the ability to manipulate the surrounding elements.
Chu Wuyao had the feeling that she was standing at the top of this continent, witnessing everything that happened from a high-level perspective.
However, just when she wanted to take a closer look, the image of the continent suddenly shattered into pieces and she unknowingly returned to the small dark place.
Before Chu Wuyao could react, her vision went dark and she felt her body "falling".
