Chapter 142: Chaos Is The Answer
Outside the Mystic Realm.
All the experts from different families started to panic when the signal connecting the realm suddenly vanished, preventing them from observing what happening within the Mystic Realm.
The Elders of the Immortal Sword Sect attempted to mend the link between the Mystic Realm and the outside world, but their efforts proved futile.
Now all experts were worried about their disciplines or loved ones who were still inside the mystic realm. They feared for their safety and wondered if something had happened to them.
"Damn it! What should we do!" The Sixth Elder shouted in frustration, slamming his fist onto a nearby tree destroying the tree from existence.
The tension in the place was palpable as Xu Zhiyuan and the Fifth Elder exchanged worried glances.
They knew that time was of the essence, and they needed to find a way to restore the connection before it was too late.
With each passing moment, the uncertainty and fear grew, leaving the fate of those inside the Mystic Realm hanging in the balance.
"If anything goes wrong with our disciplines, it could create significant issues for the whole sect," Xu Zhiyuan expressed his worries, breaking the tense silence.
"We cannot afford to waste any more time. We must exhaust all possibilities and find a solution immediately." The urgency in his voice resonated with the other elders, who all understood the gravity of the situation.
"I... I have an idea." The Fifth Elder stammered, his voice trembling with nervousness. The other elders turned to him, their expressions a mix of curiosity and hope.
He continued, "What if we forcibly entered the realm? With our strength combined, it shouldn't be a problem if we did that for a couple of minutes."
"It's not possible to do that. If we attempt it, there's a risk that the realm could collapse, leading to even more severe chaos," Xu Zhiyuan interjected, his tone brimming with worry. chapter-source-NovelFire
"We must carefully consider the consequences for making such a decision." The room fell silent as the elders pondered the risks and benefits of forcibly opening the realm.
"I don't think we have another choi..."
|Woshhhhh|
Suddenly, the door of the Mystic Realm started to shine brightly, drawing the attention of everyone in the area.
After a while, all the participants of this mystic realm began reappearing one by one, their forms slowly materializing before the elders and other experts from the Tevat Continent.
"Wh-What happened I was hunting a beast, then suddenly I found myself here," one of the participants exclaimed in confusion.
"Same here! I was being chased by a group of beasts that looked like monkeys, and then...poof! I ended up back here," another participant added, rubbing his head in bewilderment.
"Did the month already ended?"
A few participants in the Mystic Realm hadn't been able to join the Fire and Ice Trail. This led to their confusion, assuming they still had time before the mystic realm shut down.
However, the Immortal Sword Sect members were more acting normal, since they were already inside the trial. Everyone who made it to the final test was aware of the situation.
"Hahaha, we're saved!" chuckled the sixth elder, a smile breaking across his face as he witnessed the appearance of the sect's disciple.
Xu Zhiyuan and the Fifth Elder also shared the elder's relief.
After seeing the discipline of the sect return safe and sound from the trial, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Numerous experts began to retrieve their disciples and family members. In the case of the Immortal Sword Sect, the Sixth Elder swiftly approached them.
"All sect members, assemble immediately," he commanded, his authoritative voice resonating with power.
"Greetings, Six Elder!" The members of the Immortal Sword Sect quickly responded, their voices filled with respect.
The disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect quickly gathered in front of the Sixth Elder, their faces filled with curiosity.
The Sixth Elder nodded in acknowledgement and continued, "I am pleased to see that you have all returned safely.
"I'm unaware of the events that occurred within the realm, but now that the realm is sealed, I hereby declare the conclusion of this realm exploration.
All disciples, under the guidance of the sect's elders, are to return to the sect tomorrow," the Sixth Elder announced, stepping back to join both the Fifth Elder and Xu Zhiyuan.
"Now we can finally return," The Fifth Elder said in a relieved tone.
"I never thought that such a small continent would make us worry so much," Xu Zhiyuan added, his voice filled with disbelief.
"Hey Xu Zhiyuan, where is that kid that you put your eye on?" The Fifth Elder asked.
Hearing this question, Xu Zhiyuan's expression turned solemn.
He immediately used his divine sense and searched the surroundings.
After a moment, his brows furrowed as he realized that Chen Tian was nowhere to be found.
Panic started to set in as Xu Zhiyuan frantically scanned the area, hoping to catch a glimpse of the young boy. "I can't sense his presence anywhere," Xu Zhiyuan replied, his voice laced with concern.
All the core disciplines are here; Yin Yun and Zou Yang are now going with the elders and the other members of the sect.
Since they were in the same place as Chen Tian, that kid should also be transported here.
"Where did that kid disappear to?" Xu Zhiyuan pondered silently, his anxiety escalating with each passing moment.
'His Dao partner isn't here either,' Xu Zhiyuan realized, his worry deepening. 'If he's not with the elders or the other sect members, then where could he be?' Xu Zhiyuan's mind raced with all the possible scenarios.
He just found good seedlings here; there is no way he could leave them behind.
Just as his concerns were escalating, Xu Zhiyuan noticed some movement near the entrance of the mystic realm.
Hope flooded his heart as he saw Chen Tian and Su Bingxin appear there.
Relief washed over Xu Zhiyuan after seeing them, and he quickly rushed towards them.
"Are we outside?" Su Bingxin whispered, her voice carrying a sense of relief.
Chen Tian simply gazed at his surroundings, his eyes sweeping over the area.
He seemed lost, his expression suggesting that he was engrossed in his thoughts.
|Woshhh|
Suddenly, Xu Zhiyuan appeared in front of them.
"You kids, where have you been?
I've been searching all over the place," he inquired.
Slightly surprised by the figure that appeared, Su Bingxin immediately greeted "senior."
The unexpected arrival of Xu Zhiyuan caught her off guard, but she quickly composed herself and showed respect to the person who had appeared before her.
With a warm smile, Xu Zhiyuan responded to Su Bingxin's greeting with a nod.
He liked Su Bingxin's attitude, unlike another one that made Xu Zhiyuan pissed.
"Cough," Xu Zhiyuan coughed, trying to gain the attention of Chen Tian, who was clearly absent-minded.
"Chen Tian," Su Bingxin called as she noticed Xu Zhiyuan's attempt to get his attention.
Chen Tian looked up, startled, and quickly realized his mistake. "I apologize," he said sheepishly.
"I was lost in thought."
"You're really something, kid." Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help but sigh at Chen Tian.
"Alright, could the two of you please tell me what occurred within the realm?" Xu Zhiyuan inquired, as both Chen Tian and Su Bingxin were the last ones to exit.
"Okay"
Chen Tian started to explain what had happened inside the realm. Since Xu Zhiyuan was going to take care of them from now on.
Chen Tian decided to tell him what happened, of course, he kept the information about the inheritance a secret and told Xu Zhiyuan that he didn't get anything as no one had passed the test.
Su Bingxin, being a good wife, didn't interrupt Chen Tian and patiently listened to his explanation.
She knew that Chen Tian was lying, but she didn't want to confront him about it.
She understood that he had his reasons for keeping the information to himself.
After minutes of explaining what happened, Xu Zhiyuan nodded his head in understanding.
"Okay, both of you should go and rest tomorrow before we leave for the Immortal Sword Sect. I will make sure to come and take you," Xu Zhiyuan said reassuringly.
"Thank Senior." Chen Tian and Su Bingxin both thanked Xu Zhiyuan.
Xu Zhiyuan didn't stay any longer as he had work to do, so he quickly left.
"Let's go home," Chen Tian said.
"Um," Su Bingxin nodded, feeling relief that everything had ended.
Both Chen Tian and Su Bingxin decided to return to Su Bingxin's house on the mountain.
On the way, Chen Tian was absent-minded again.
He couldn't forget the last words he heard from Su Linhua before he left the trial grounds.
"Chaos is the answer," Chen Tian mumbled in his head.
'What did she mean by that?'
There was no way that Su Linhua would tell him something useless like that without a deeper meaning.
Chen Tian's mind raced as he tried to understand Su Linhua's message.
As they reached Su Bingxin's house, Chen Tian couldn't shake off the feeling that something big was about to unfold.
