Chapter 78 - Seventy-four: Along the Pingye



Translator: 549690339

Early in the morning on the first day of April

Auspicious: Priest making stoves, regulating roads, do not engage in miscellaneous affairs

Taboo: Wedding, burial, bed setup, treatment of diseases

For Tang Luo, today was the day he was tending to roads, so he woke up early and headed to the Secret Arts Pavilion carrying a wooden box on his back.

The entrance to the Secret Arts Pavilion was a huge willow tree, the trunk hollowed out, leading directly underground. Even though you could also take a secret tunnel from the Scripture Pavilion to the Secret Arts Pavilion, the willow tree pathway was undoubtedly the fastest.

Impatient to get to the Secret Arts Pavilion, Tang Luo obviously chose the fastest route.

The guard of the secret tunnel was a white-haired warrior. He sat under the willow tree on a stone platform with a few plates of snacks and a pot of old wine, immersing himself in wine and quiet delight.

From his appearance, the old man seemed like a retired warrior from the Battle Hall enjoying life, but to Tang Luo, the old man was like a firefly in the night, outstanding, after all, he had the number 49358 hanging over his head.

Elder, I need to enter the Secret Arts Pavilion. Tang Luo said as he threw the large box on the ground, and then added, Could you kindly help me carry this box down there?

After the trees trunk was hollowed out, there was a vertical tunnel underneath. With Tang Luos current physical state in the Mortal Realm, if he wanted to land safely without using any Spiritual Power, he could not bring anything with him. Carrying the box meant he would have to activate his levitation ability.

To put it bluntly, he did not want to spend any Spiritual Power. After all, for a warrior like him who cannot recover Spiritual Power, every bit of it was extremely precious.

The old man, who was enjoying his wine, felt annoyed when he heard Tang Luos words. He had seen many of these apprentices from the Secret Arts Pavilion who were unwilling to take the long route and always brought their research results to him to carry them down. At first, the old man felt important, but later realized that these apprentices were simply too lazy to do it themselves.

So, in the end, the old man didnt care. But facing such a large box left in front of him now, he was quite surprised. Usually, it was just a small box, but today it had become a large one.

The old man glanced at the box and then at Tang Luos youthful face. Thinking that Tang Luo was just a delivery boy, he didnt expect to get any information out him. Just as he was about to dismiss him casually, he saw Tang Luo pull something out from his pocket.

The old man was so shocked he knocked over his cup of wine and had no reaction. He immediately stood up and bowed.bender

You oh, no Elder Cult? The old mans hunched back seemed to instantly straighten up, he bowed meticulously at a ninety-degree angle, his uplifted face full of panic and confusion.

Ah, no need to bow, thank you. Tang Luo put the token back into his pocket, bypassed the old man, opened the secret door of the willow tree, and jumped into the pitch-black tree hole.

Following this drop from the tree hole, there was a dark room so black you couldnt see your hand in front of your face. But Tang Luo knew there was one more person in this dark room.

Because in the pitch-black darkness, a string of numbers suddenly appeared, bright as the moon in the dark. When you realize that this number is rapidly approaching you, you know what it implies is something a normal person should do.

I am a member of the Secret Arts Pavilion, take me out. Tang Luo pulled out the token from his pocket again and showed it to the incoming person.

The rapidly approaching numbers stopped in front of Tang Luo. In such darkness, even knowing that the person was right in front of him, all he could see was darkness.

And just now, this person moved and stopped without making a single sound, a living person standing in front of Tang Luo, yet he could not sense the others breath or heartbeat.

A chilly hand reached out and touched the token in Tang Luos hand, cold as ice, which made the hairs on his hand that was holding the token stand up.

This person can actually see. Tang Luo took out the token just to prove his identity, but he forgot that he is in a pitch-black environment, taking out the token made him feel foolish.

However, to his surprise, the hands of the person in front of him were able to accurately touch the token, which means that this person could see in the dark, and thats quite impressive.

After touching it for a while to confirm Tang Luos identity, this person retracted his cold hand.

Elder Cult, please follow me. The others voice was sharp, like the voice of a eunuch.

The numbers moved into the distance, Tang Luo put the token back and followed the moving numbers carefully.

Perhaps Tang Luos performance just now made the other party mistakenly think that he also had the ability of night vision, so thats why he said such words.

Although he thought it was only a small dark room, he found it to be quite large when he walked for a while, and the numbers stopped.

Bang, bang, bang, bang-

All of a sudden, a row of lights were turned on. The strong light made Tang Luo squint his eyes. Now he could see the appearance of the numbers in front of him clearly.

A tall, skinny, middle-aged man with no beard, pale face, and eyes crisscrossed with scars; he was actually a blind man.

No wonder he could see in the dark but had to feel the token with his hand, Tang Luo was suddenly enlightened.

A stone door was lifted, and the middle-aged man said to Tang Luo: Elder Cult, please.

Thank you, sir. Tang Luo bowed in response and went through the stone gate. Suddenly remembering something, he turned his head back and said, By the way, theres another old man who will be carrying my box down later, Ill wait here for a while.

He will come through a secret passage inside the Scripture Pavilion. After saying this, the middle-aged man sealed the stone door, leaving Tang Luo, confused, outside the stone door.

Damn, I thought he would just grab the box and jump. Tang Luo felt awkward in his heart. After all, for a powerful fighter from the Fierce Realm, isnt jumping down a tree hole just like playing?

He himself originally thought it was not much trouble to jump randomly, so he asked the old guard to do it. If he knew that the old man had to take a big detour and transport it from the Scripture Pavilion, he would rather jump down by himself. Either way, it wouldnt cost but a few extra bits of Spiritual Power.

What the hell. Tang Luo shook his head and walked towards the Great Hall of the Secret Arts Pavilion. Along a corridor adorned with dazzling decorations, the decoration style was almost like that of the Great Hall of the Secret Arts Pavilion. Surely, at the end of the corridor, he would reach the place.

Sure enough, after going through the corridor, he came to the other side of the Secret Arts Pavilion. Walking into the room, it was completely empty No, only Tang Guangyu was sitting there meditating.

Hearing the noise, he opened his eyes and met Tang Luos gaze.

In the empty Secret Arts Pavilion, Tang Guangyu, at the peak of Mortal Realm, met Tang Luo, also at the peak of Mortal Realm.

The brave young man showed no fear.

You came so early; are you trying to get used to the feeling of failure first? Tang Luo wobbled to his seat without taking Tang Guangyu seriously.

The latter scornfully taunted him, Maybe you really are a genius, but youre bound to lose in todays contribution.

Tang Luo sat down in front of his table, glanced at Tang Guangyu and noticed two small wooden boxes next to him, then disdainfully said: Hasnt last time taught you to speak cautiously? I thought you were smart.

Tang Guangyu felt an upsurge of nameless anger. He stood up and said, No matter what, I am older than you, is this how you talk to your elders?

Thats why I say, I hate talking to people like you the most. I reason with you, you talk about seniority with me. I compete with you on talent, you talk to me about age? Tang Luo shook his head, feeling it was just a waste of time..
