Chapter 600 The Bitterness of Deception
Grayson explained and spoke again, "Fiona? I seem to have some impression! It seems that their family doesn't belong to any sect or clan but are wandering cultivators. They entered the path of cultivation due to some inheritance from their ancestors. Going to Horizon Mountain tomorrow is also for the purpose of the entrance assessment."
Listening to Grayson's explanation, Lachlan understood and chuckled lightly, saying, "Then I'll go with them tomorrow. Since we've met, I'll escort them to the end."
"But don't easily reveal my identity."
Although Grayson was a bit puzzled by Lachlan's words, he still agreed.
Early the next morning, Fiona directly called out for Lachlan to wake up. Looking at Fiona and her family dressed in grand attire, they didn't look like they were going mountain climbing at all. But Lachlan wasn't surprised by this, as he already knew the situation yesterday.
Now looking at Fiona again, he understood why she seemed so excited. However, he had heard from Grayson yesterday that the admission standards of Broken Pulse Sect were quite high. He hoped that Fiona would meet the requirements.
"Lachlan, it's getting late. Let's get ready to depart."
"However, we may not be able to accompany you to the end. When we arrive at Horizon Mountain, we have our own matters to attend to."
"Going to a place where ordinary people can't go, to take care of some business."
Hearing this, Lachlan couldn't help but feel speechless. He thought, so you're going to participate in the disciple assessment of Broken Pulse Sect, as if I didn't know? In their eyes, he was probably just an "ordinary person" who could run errands.
He had to admit that among the cultivators he had encountered, this family had relatively good temperaments. Lachlan had a very good impression of them and didn't show any dissatisfaction with their words. After leaving the hotel, Grayson was already waiting downstairs.
"This is my friend, Grayson McCain."
"He can be considered our guide this time."
Lachlan casually explained, and the other members of the Morrison family didn't react much, except Winston looked at Grayson with some doubt in his eyes. It seemed that he sensed something extraordinary about Grayson.
Horizon Mountain stretched for thousands of miles and was exceptionally magnificent!
Just as they stepped into the territory of Horizon Mountain, Lachlan felt a much denser spiritual energy rushing toward him compared to the urban areas. Winston and the others also had expressions of enjoyment.
The real Broken Pulse Sect, like those hidden sects, was concealed within a grand formation that shielded their aura and couldn't be discovered by outsiders.
After reaching the formation that led to the sect's territory in a valley...
"Alright, Mr. Willis, let's part ways here."
"It was nice meeting you."
Winston lightly smiled at Lachlan.
"No need to part ways. Let's go to Broken Pulse Sect together on the way."Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Lachlan's lips curled up with a playful smile as he said to Winston.
Ah?
Winston and the other two were stunned for a moment, showing a surprised expression. Did Lachlan also know about Broken Pulse Sect?
But before Winston could speak, Lachlan had already signaled Grayson with his eyes.
Grayson glanced around. They were already near the mountaintop, and there was no one else around. At this moment, he took out a hexagonal stone tablet from his body and placed it in a notch on the nearby stone wall.
Suddenly, a formation appeared, and the scenery before them distorted and surged like the Eight-Gate Illusion Array that Butch Ghost had set up to deal with Lachlan.
That Eight-Gate Illusion Array claimed to be a separate space, isolated from the outside world.
And these hidden ancient martial sects were also concealed within formations that claimed to be separate spaces.
As the spiritual energy of the Earth gradually depleted and became unsuitable for cultivation, the ancestors of these ancient martial sects set up formations that could gather spiritual energy and isolate themselves from the outside world. This allowed them to continue their cultivation for generations.
Of course, these formations that formed the domains of sects and clans were much larger and more profound than the Eight-Gate Illusion Array.
At this moment, Grayson chuckled lightly and spoke to everyone, "Welcome to Broken Pulse Sect!"
As they entered the domain of Broken Pulse Sect, the towering mountains and peaks before them were no smaller in scale than the outside Horizon Mountain.
Nestled among the mountains was a palace-like complex emitting a thick aura of grandeur. Taking a deep breath in this place, one could feel the energy within their bodies becoming incredibly active. The concentration of spiritual energy here was hundreds of times higher than the outside world!
The scene before them had already stunned Winston's family, and Lachlan silently marveled at the profound strength of this ancient power.
After a while, Winston turned to Lachlan and said, "Mr. Willis, you really fooled me! I didn't expect you to be one of us. If I had known, I wouldn't have hidden it and made things so tiring. Since we're all here to participate in the assessment, I hope you can take care of my daughter."
Winston instinctively thought that Lachlan was also here to participate in the assessment, considering how young he was. No one could have imagined that Lachlan was actually a high-level cultivator in the Golden Core stage and had been directly invited by Broken Pulse Sect.
Lachlan didn't refute Winston's words and quickly joined Grayson, leading the group towards the palace-like complex. Along the way, they could see many others heading in the same direction. It seemed that they were also external cultivators coming to participate in the assessment.
During the journey, Fiona's
admiration for Lachlan grew even stronger. She grabbed Lachlan's arm, her voice filled with excitement. "Lachlan, I'm so happy! I never thought you were also a cultivator. My family has always restricted my outings to keep my abilities hidden. I've rarely had any friends. When we arrive at Broken Pulse Sect, Lachlan, please take care of me!"
Listening to Fiona's sincere words, Lachlan smiled lightly in his heart and nodded at Fiona. "Alright, I promise."
Grayson, who was leading the front,
couldn't help but feel moved. Fiona probably didn't know the weight behind Lachlan's promise. For Broken Pulse Sect, Lachlan's presence was of great significance. The treatment he would receive here could be imagined. With Lachlan's care, Fiona might be able to avoid many troubles if she could truly stay in Broken Pulse Sect.
As cultivators, their speed was incredibly fast. Within the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the group arrived at the entrance of the palace-like complex, which was the gate to the sect's territory. The gate was over ten meters high and hundreds of meters wide, exuding a majestic and powerful aura. Above the gate, the three characters
"Broken Pulse Sect" were like
soaring dragons.
"Who goes there?"
At this moment, a stern voice suddenly rang out from beside the gate. Grayson saw the person and quickly greeted, "It's me! I'm here to escort... Mr. Willis into the sect."
Grayson almost revealed Lachlan's identity but quickly shifted the topic.
"Grayson."
Upon seeing Grayson, the person greeted him and then turned to leave after scanning Lachlan and the others. Only Fiona had come for the assessment, but having a cultivator accompanying her could be considered a flexible arrangement by Broken Pulse Sect.
Grayson soon led the group to a martial arts arena and gave Lachlan a signal before hurriedly leaving. He needed to quickly report back to Kyrie.
