A month later, in a dense forest in Dali, Yunnan.
"Master, aren't we going to Dali City? What are we doing here?”
Looking at the dense forest shrouded in fog, Yang Guo asked curiously, his eyes revealing a bit of determination.
Along the way, Long Tian would let him take action whenever he encountered injustice. After experiencing dozens of battles, his martial arts and temperament had also become more and more tenacious.
However, this place was in the wilderness, and there were no villages or sects nearby.
If the mountain bandits and road bullies were here to rob, they would definitely be so poor that they would not even be able to drink the northwest wind.
As for the fights between the birds and beasts, it was not his place to care.
If there was no injustice, what was he doing here?
Yang Guo was very puzzled.
Xiao Longnu was also curious, but she didn't ask.
Long Tian smiled. Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu only knew one thing and didn't know the other. This dense forest seemed ordinary, but there was a hidden world.
He was about to explain when an old man dressed like a woodcutter walked out of the forest.""You're all travel-worn. Why didn't you go to the inn in town? What are you doing in this desolate mountain?”
As he spoke, the man put down the firewood on his back and held the long saber in his hand horizontally. His aura suddenly changed.
Fine, he didn't need to explain himself anymore!
Long Tian recognized the other party at a glance and could not help but feel relieved. It seemed that he had not found the wrong place.
"Is he a martial artist?"
Yang Guo was a little surprised. He took a closer look and found that it was actually someone who knew martial arts. However, he quickly lost interest. The cultivation that this person revealed with a raise of his hand was far inferior to his.
Fighting with such a person would only be a waste of time. It was no wonder that Yang Guo was not interested.
Long Tian's goal was naturally not this person, but if he wanted to meet a true expert, he had to start with that woodcutter.
The woodcutter was not an ordinary person. Back then, South Emperor Duan Zhixing was trapped by love affairs and became a monk out of anger.
In order to protect him, the four generals who were loyal to Duan Zhixing gave up their official positions and volunteered to become monks. They took Duan Zhixing as their master and cut firewood, hunted, read, and fished to make a living. At the same time, they could also prevent people with ulterior motives from disturbing them.
Those four generals were naturally the four famous protectors of the fishing, woodcutter, and reading families.
Back when Huang Rong was injured, Guo Jing, who had yet to form his martial arts, had fought against the four of them one by one in order to meet Master Yi Deng. He had defeated them. It was obvious that the four of them were not very good at martial arts.
Moreover, after several decades, the four of them were already old. Other than their inner strength being a little stronger, they actually did not make much progress.
And the person who appeared in front of him at this moment was the woodcutter who was plowing and reading.
Since Woodcutter had appeared, Master Yi Deng was naturally nearby.
Long Tian smiled and cupped his hands." I'm Long Tian of the Carefree Sect. I learned that Master Yi Deng is cultivating in this dense forest. I've brought my disciple Yang Guo and the Ancient Tomb Sect's successor, Xiao Longnu, to pay a visit."”
In the past month, Long Tian had been extremely high-profile for the sake of the system mission. Every time he asked Yang Guo to take action, he would report his sect's background.
Therefore, the news that the Carefree Sect, which had been silent for nearly a hundred years, was about to reappear in the martial world had long spread quietly.
Knowing their origins, the woodcutter's expression changed slightly." So they're Carefree Sect's successors. I'm sorry for my disrespect!"”
Woodcutter had heard about it and knew that Long Tian and the others had been punishing the strong and eliminating the evil. He immediately relaxed his breathing, but the vigilance on his face became even heavier.
Not only did the Carefree Sect like to punish evil and promote good, but they would also challenge the experts of various sects. The most important thing was that Long Tian only let Yang Guo fight every time, and so far, he had not lost.
"It seems that you want to challenge my master. Unfortunately, he is already old and it is not convenient for him to receive guests.”
South Deity had always been aloof from worldly affairs and had specially instructed not to see any outsiders, so it was only logical for Woodcutter to reject her.
He carried the firewood pile on his back and turned around to go back into the forest.
Long Tian was helpless and gave Yang Guo a look.
"In that case, I'll have to offend you!”
Yang Guo shouted and stepped forward. In a few flashes, he blocked the woodcutter's path.
"What an annoying little doll!"
Seeing the thin and weak Yang Guo blocking his way, the woodcutter was furious. He threw down the firewood pile and slashed at him with his knife.
Yang Guo dodged to the side and took advantage of the situation to seal the acupuncture points on the woodcutter's arm.
Clang!
The chopper fell to the ground, and the woodcutter was extremely surprised.""You are indeed as powerful as the rumors say. If I can't stop you, the other three probably can't either.”
He was very tactful. He could tell that Yang Guo was even more powerful than Guo Jing back then, so he simply became the guide.
The group entered the dense forest, passed through layers of fog, and finally arrived in front of a wooden house.
"Master, I…"
The woodcutter signaled for them to stop and knocked on the door. He wanted to say something but hesitated.
Creak!
The wooden door opened on its own, and an old and gentle voice came out from the Buddha statue.""Esteemed guest, please forgive me for not welcoming you!”
Long Tian looked up and saw an old monk with an extraordinary bearing sitting on a praying mat facing the door. His deep eyes were filled with praise and helplessness.
Needless to say, this person was the former South Deity Duan Zhixing, the current Master Yi Deng.
"Carefree Sect's Long Tian greets Grandmaster!”
Long Tian admired Yi Deng's character and immediately cupped his hands.
"Greetings, Senior!"
Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu looked at each other and bowed as well.
"Yes!"
One Lamp nodded and first sized up Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu, then his gaze fell on Long Tian."Young hero Long has recently helped me to get rid of many bandits and scum of the martial arts world. Even I am ashamed of his kindness.”
Long Tian hurriedly said," Master, you flatter me. I just want to train my disciple. Let him exchange more moves with experts. His strength will naturally advance by leaps and bounds."”
When he mentioned the word expert, Long Tian deliberately emphasized his tone.
One Lamp smiled bitterly." Hehe, could it be that you've trained an old and uncivilized person like me to become an expert?"”
"Of course. Everyone in the martial arts world knows of Master Yideng's fame. Although you live in seclusion, you are famous enough to be on par with the Five Uniques.”
The smile on Long Tian's face did not fade as he pointed out One Lamp's true identity.
"What? That senior is the former South Deity?”
Xiao Longnu had long guessed it, but now that Long Tian had confirmed it, she was speechless.
Yang Guo's eyes lit up. He had only challenged the Seven Sons of Quan Zhen Sect. Ever since he entered Dali, he had only encountered mountain bandits or third-rate goods. It was really not satisfying.
"Hey!"
After pondering for a moment, One Lamp sighed." It seems that we can't avoid this battle. Since that's the case, I'll take advantage of my seniority and exchange a few moves with your disciple."”
Bang!
He slapped the ground and rose into the air. He pointed at the air with one finger and swept out a stream of energy.
The finger force contained pure internal strength, tearing through the void and heading straight for Yang Guo's heart.
Yang Guo flew to dodge, but the corner of his clothes was still torn. He couldn't help but be secretly shocked. He immediately held his breath and focused his attention, going all out.
"The One Solar Finger is indeed worthy of its reputation, but the martial arts of my Carefree Sect is not undeserved. Yang Guo, use the hidden weapon technique I taught you and let the master give you some pointers!”
