C2980 The Dust Settled
After such a brief interlude, the remaining elders naturally didn't dare to overdo it, but they still didn't give up this opportunity.
After all, their lifespan was not much better than the previous elder's. Thus, they still did not show any mercy when they attacked. However, they did not use any methods to fight to the death.
People cherished their lives. The faster one died, the more they cherished their own lives.
This was especially the case when they saw that Huang Aohan had killed the elder who had lost his mind so easily. This shocked and frightened them even more.
Even Huang Aohan was so powerful. What kind of existences were Faang Yang and Upper Realm, who were even stronger than him?
For a moment, all the people of Hidden Sect couldn't help but let their imagination run wild, especially those elders who had almost confirmed the quota. A trace of excitement appeared on their faces.
To them, this kind of strength was just a short distance away. As long as they went to Upper Realm, they would be able to obtain it easily.
Those who could cultivate to the Heaven Rank in the Mortal Realm weren't easy to deal with, especially those supreme elders who had lived for an unknown period of time. Each and every one of them was the same.
Perhaps because their talent was limited, they couldn't break the shackles of the Mortal Realm. However, it didn't mean that they were useless. On the contrary, those who could live until now weren't simple people.
One should know that most of the people who were still in the competition were the supreme elders of Hidden Sect. Almost all of the sect masters that Faang Yang knew had been eliminated.
The only remaining sect master was Sunn Yue from the Seven Stars Sect.
It could be seen that these supreme elders' strength was indeed extraordinary. Their experience and means were far from what they could compare with.
The reason Sunn Yue was able to stay until the end was all thanks to the amazing foundation of the Sect behind him. Otherwise, he might not have been able to persist until now.
Faang Yang had high hopes for Sunn Yue. After all, Sunn Yue had the Divine Ability Secret Arts. At the same time, Faang Yang also knew that it would be a great help to Faang Yang. The Divine Ability Secret Arts was the only technique in the entire Mortal Realm that could control the flow of energy.
This was also the main reason why the Son of God of the Upper Realm wanted to recruit Sunn Yue.
It was just that the grade of his Divine Ability Secret Arts was too low, and without the support of the Subsequent Cultivation Method, it would be too difficult for him to cultivate a divine ability.
That was why Sunn Yue had placed his hopes on the Upper Realm, and hoped that he would be able to obtain the following cultivation method from the Upper Realm.
With this secret technique, Sunn Yue might be able to stay until the end. After all, his opponent's cultivation base and luck were second only to Huang Aohan's. As long as nothing unexpected happened, his opponent would definitely advance successfully.
After all, he still had the care of the Son of God behind him. At the same time, he was also the first batch of disciples to come into contact with the Evil Spirit Hall's Sect. His combat strength was far from what those disciples of the Sect who were cultivating in seclusion could compare with.
Sure enough, after a day, the final number of people was finally confirmed. Sunn Yue was among them, except for him. The remaining six were the supreme elders of Sect. The youngest of them was over a hundred years old.
Ji Faang and Chiang Lieh looked at the elders who were over a thousand years old. The wrinkles in their eyes had never relaxed.
"Is this really good? If we bring such a group of people to Upper Realm, we will be scolded to death by the elders of our sect..." Chiang Lieh couldn't help but complain to Elder Silverfrost.
Elder Silverfrost didn't mind it at all. In any case, scolding him wouldn't affect him. Furthermore, Faang Yang alone was already better than everyone else. He could even cover up their failure in this mission.
On the other side, Ji Faang was the same. However, he did not complain. He just sighed and said, "It's a pity that Gu La did not have the Regulator of the mages. How good would it be?"
After confirming the candidate, Elder Silverfrost did not waste any more time talking. She directly took out the Azure Dragon Jade Plate and threw the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that she had prepared earlier into the Jade Plate.
Very quickly, a shocking spiritual energy appeared inside the Jade Plate. It rushed into the clouds and then turned into a ray of light.
"The location of the passageway has been confirmed. All of you have rested for a day. Tomorrow morning, bring your belongings and jade pendants with you and follow me to the Upper Realm."
Hearing these words, everyone's faces revealed a trace of joy. Even Faang Yang couldn't help but clench his fists and forcefully suppress the excitement in his heart.
At this time, he had already forgotten about the Nether Essence Spirit and Evil Spirit Hall Master. Only he could become stronger. At that time, he wouldn't be afraid of any evil devils, so he would just slap them to death.
It wasn't just him, almost everyone was in such a state. Those Supreme Elders who didn't have much lifespan were even worse than Faang Yang. Each of their faces were flushed red, and some of them even burst into tears.
It was hard to imagine that a hundred-year-old old man would have such a change in mood. Without the help of Upper Realm, their cultivation base had been stuck at the Heaven Rank Great Perfection, and they had never seen any hope of breaking through.2
Although their lifespan was decreasing day by day, none of them had the ability to change it. Therefore, it was perfectly normal for them to have such a reaction.
However, this made Evil Spirit Hall Master and the Nether Essence Spirit, who were hiding among the seven of them, feel bitter. Not only did they have to show a look of excitement, but they also had to think of a way to make themselves cry.
However, for people like them, it was fine to let them die, but it was too difficult to make them cry. Therefore, their faces turned red, and they didn't even squeeze out a single tear.
However, in Faang Yang's and the others' eyes, not only did their actions not seem abnormal, it was even more fitting for their current status.
Even Elder Silverfrost didn't notice anything wrong. With his experience and eyesight, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with their behavior, let alone Faang Yang, who had only lived for more than twenty years.
As the competition ended, the other Sect who didn't get a spot began to disperse. Although they were unwilling to accept it, there was nothing they could do about it.
However, they weren't in a hurry to leave. Instead, they planned to stay and see what the passageway of Upper Realm looked like.
There were more than one family who had such thoughts. Almost all the higher ups of Sect chose to stay. They only dismissed the younger disciples. After all, their cultivation base was still too far away from knowing these things. It wouldn't do them any good if they knew about it now.
On the other hand, the higher ups of the Sect were no less excited than Faang Yang and the others. After so many years, they had finally regained contact with the Upper Realm. This was a great thing for the entire Hidden Sect.
Early the next morning, Faang Yang and the others immediately headed towards the Upper Realm Passage. Under the guidance of the Azure Dragon Jade Plate, they quickly located the location of the passageway.
However, in order to open the passageway, they needed more than just the Azure Dragon Jade Plate. They also needed eight jade pendants. Now, all eight jade pendants had been gathered. Now, they were in Faang Yang's hands. After finding the passageway... Without any hesitation, Faang Yang and the others threw the jade pendants into the Jade Plate.
