The two middle-aged cultivators behind the old man were pale-faced, their legs were slightly bent unconsciously, and beads of cold sweat appeared on their foreheads. Even their breathing became extremely difficult.
The old man’s expression changed completely at that moment.
He could clearly feel that the aura emanating from the gray-robed young man in front of him had far surpassed the level of a level four Grand Luo Golden Immortal.
Even he, a veteran cultivator who had been in the fifth level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm for a long time, felt obvious pressure and crisis.
That absolute power that transcended class forced him to reevaluate the person before him.
He’s not as simple as he seems, and he’s also not a side character that I can manipulate at will.
“You……”
The old man spoke with difficulty, his voice trembling slightly, “Who exactly are you?”
David didn’t answer him, but slowly raised his hand. The Source of Chaos condensed into a dense ball of purplish-gray light in his palm. The light was restrained and contained, but it radiated a terrifying aura of destruction.
His gaze remained calm like still water, his tone as cold as frost: “That ID, to give it, or not to give it?”
The old man’s Adam’s apple moved up and down. He stared at the purplish-gray light surging in David’s palm, then looked at the giant python beast core exuding rich aura on the table, and finally slowly lowered his head.
He took a deep breath: “Okay, take it.”
He raised his hand and took out a small dark gray coin the size of a palm from his sleeve. A faint halo flowed across the surface of the coin, and in the center was engraved a “virtual and real pattern” that was identical to the pattern on the cliffs of Cold Crow Ridge.
He slowly placed the token on the black jade table and pushed it in front of David: “This is the token of the Xuanming Ancient Clan. The holder of this token has the right to enter the Secret Realm Trade Fair. You take care of yourself.”
David reached out and took the token. The moment his fingertip touched him, a warm aura of law seeped into his body through his palm, perfectly matching the characteristics of the ancient clan he had felt on the cliff of the Cold Crow Ridge.
He nodded slightly, put the token into his sleeve, and at the same time, the overwhelming gray-purple chaotic pressure around him receded completely like a receding tide, returning to a calm and controlled state, as if the suffocating oppression just now was just an illusion.
He didn’t say a word, turned around and walked towards the hall door.
Xuanzhenzi and Jiang Xuelan followed closely, their footsteps echoing in the deep corridor, without any rush and with a calm and determined rhythm.
It was only when the dark door closed completely behind the three of them that the old man’s body suddenly slumped in his chair, a thin layer of cold sweat flowing from his forehead, his entire body as if he had just gone through a life and death battle.
The two middle-aged cultivators behind him collapsed to the ground, their faces ashen, gasping for breath.
“Elder…that kid…” said a middle-aged cultivator with a trembling voice.
The old man waved his hand, his misty eyes filled with a complex and difficult to understand light, his voice hoarse and low: “Don’t ask any more. Let’s pretend that today’s incident never happened.”
Outside Chenxi Pavilion, David stood on the dark gray street, holding an ancient clan token in his hand. His purple eyes reflected the gray barrier above the sky and the lights and shadows that were slowly darkening in the distance.
Xuanzhenzi stopped beside him, stroked his beard, and said in a low voice, “Finally got it. Next is the Secret Realm Trade Fair.”
David nodded slightly, put the token into his storage ring, and looked at the gray horizon that was faintly visible in the distance. His voice was steady and firm: “Yes. Next step, Xuan Tian Soul Severing Jade.”
