Wait for me to enter Inner Sect again and be admitted in the Extreme Dan Courtyard. At that time I can enjoy two kinds of treatment!" Chen Xiang decided, and he was suddenly curious about Elder Dan. In order to have contact with her, he could only go to the Extreme Dan Courtyard, because Elder Dan was the head of the Extreme Dan Courtyard.
Chen Xiang, Yun Xiaodao and Zhang De were lead by Zhu Rong to the innermost region of the Extreme Martial Sect, and Chen Xiang and the others could see courtyards of various sizes
"The 99th Inner Sect Martial Courtyard, is where we're going?" Yun Xiaodao, looking at a numerical engraving, exclaimed.
"We're going to the Elder Courtyard! I also went there during my third assessment." Zhu Rong patted his round belly, and there was a eery smile on his face, "The third assessment is not as frightening as second assessment, but it is still quite difficult, but after passing through there will be many benefits."
To their surprise they had to go to the Elder Courtyard, the residential area of all the elders of the Extreme Martial Sect, which made Chen Xiang and the others to feel a lot of pressure. Chen Xiang was also worried that because of his conflict with Elder Dan, this may have caused the whole Elder Courtyard to be against him, then he really would not be able to mix in the Extreme Martial Sect anymore.
"The Extreme Martial Dean went into closed-door training for many years, and now all the affairs are managed by Elder Wu. Elder Dan is always kind of elusive, and throughout the year will not appear even once to give lectures." said Zhu Rong, "The Elder Wu is responsible for third assessment."
Elder Wu was number 3 character in the Extreme Martial Sect. He was very harmonious and amicable, and although his cultivation was very high and remote, he did not have even a little bit of arrogance. Many disciples liked him, which made Chen Xiang and the others to let loose a deep breath, as at least they did not have to face someone moody like Elder Dan, this strange woman.
"This is the Elder Courtyard? It really is a little different." Yun Xiaodao didn't expect that there actually would be a paradise 世外桃源 here in the Extreme Martial Sect. There were not any kind of buildings here, but instead there were mountains and lakes, with a very vast prairie and although it was now night, but a bright moon and many star lights were shining here. The scenery here was very beautiful.
[TLN: 世外桃源 imaginary land of joy and plenty, in other words, paradise, Shangri-la so and so]
"Why can I not see this type of scenery from the outside? Moreover it looks like it is bigger here than Tianmen City in the outside!" said Chen Xiang with some doubt.
"Ha ha ha, this is one Mysterious Realm, and one can only see the inside things when they are near it, but if you're looking from far, it will be blocked by a kind of mystical power. What you're looking are only some of the things present before the entrance of the Mysterious Realm." A bald old man, but with a long white beard and long white eyebrows suddenly appeared behind Chen Xiang and the others.
Chen Xiang and the others were startled, and they quickly turned around, only to see a bald old man right in front of them slightly smiling, with a pair of narrowed old eyes right under the long white eyebrows looking very harmonious.
Mysterious Realm, some small independent space. This was equivalent to one small world, and was very mystical. Like how this Mysterious Realm was not very big, but if looked at from the outside it was invisible, and only if one went through its entrance could one clearly see. It was still a mystery how this kind of Mysterious Realm was formed.
Chen Xiang and the others have heard the legends of the Mysterious Realms, but they actually had not expected for one to exist in the Extreme Martial Sect. Moreover it was also in the Elder Courtyard!
"Elder Wu!" Chen Xiang and others shouted in unison, and gave a salute to this old man.
Elder Wu name was Wu Kaiming 武开明, and he was responsible for the safety matters of the Extreme Martial Sect. He was one ruthless character, and it was confirmed that once to save his own apprentice, he rushed in alone to a Devil Path Sect, and rescued his disciple.
"No need to be overly courteous." Wu Kaiming happily smiling said, "You're Chen Xiang? Elder Dan asked me a moment ago to make things difficult for you in the third assessment, but I refused. I do not want a disciple to hate their sect, but having said that, you truly are one of a kind, making that woman suppress a lot of anger. Fortunately, she is not an overly bad-tempered woman, otherwise, she would have beaten you to death. We old men can only say a few words on the surface to her.”
