Chapter 4: The Talent of Genius (2)

  Wang Zhanglao controlled the flying sword to land on the kilometer platform at the end of the mountain road. In sight was a magnificent palace much larger than what Changsheng had seen earlier. The palace was wrapped in an unknown type of green stone, shining with a faint green light under the sunlight. Facing the end of the mountain road was a massive gate shaped like a fire cloud, tens of meters high, with the words "Dan Yao Feng" carved on it. In front of the palace gate stood eight guards, their backs to the long swords, their faces stern.

  At this time, they saw Wang Changlao at the end of the mountain road. One of them immediately walked to Wang Changlao's front, bowed and saluted: "Disciple has seen Wang Changlao." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Changsheng with his remaining eyesight, as if guessing Changsheng's origin.

  Wang Zhanglao nodded expressionlessly and pulled Changsheng's hand, walking into the palace, leaving behind eight young gatekeepers who looked at each other in dismay.

  As he entered the palace, Chang Sheng saw before him a huge martial arts arena that was about a kilometer in size. On the arena, hundreds of people were sparring with each other or sitting on the sidelines discussing their own insights and experiences.

  Chang Sheng's gaze swept across, and he could sense the extraordinary aura of these people. Those who were currently sparring were even more tightly drawn to Chang Sheng's attention. The sword followed his body as he moved, flipping and leaping. Each move in Chang Sheng's eyes was so captivating. However, his feet still didn't dare to slacken, closely following behind Elder Wang.

  Along the way, as the two passed by, disciples would occasionally pay their respects to Elder Wang while also taking the opportunity to size up this unfamiliar young man, Chang Sheng, and speculate about his identity.

  Anyone who greeted Elder Wang would at most receive a slight nod from him. After passing the huge martial arts arena, what came into view was a four-way stone path made of bluestone. Elder Wang didn't stop and directly led Changsheng to the wide path on the left.

  While walking, Chang Sheng noticed that those relatively narrow passages were always crowded with people passing by. On the other hand, the passage he was currently on seemed to be deserted and very quiet.

  It seems that Changsheng is puzzled, and Wang Zhanglao's mouth slightly raises, saying: "Isn't it strange that no one comes here? This is because the entrance of this passage leads to the office of the outer gate elder on the first floor of Dan Yao Peak. Disciples outside the gate cannot enter without being summoned."

  If someone saw Wang Changlao, who was normally stern and impartial, speaking to Changsheng in such a gentle tone, they would surely be astonished beyond belief!

  The always victorious nodding head. The difference in attitude between Wang Changlao's treatment of others and himself is still perceivable. Although it was not understood, there was no further thought, since Father went out to find a cure for himself, Chang Sheng has been entrusted to the neighbors. From an early age, he knew how to observe words and colors, try his best to please adults, and make himself look more clever. This is absolutely beneficial to oneself.

  The quiet corridor soon came to an end, and Changsheng followed Wang Zong into a slightly empty palace. The palace was very small, with only about 100 square meters of space, the walls around it were undecorated, and the floor was just paved with green stone slabs, the only thing that stood out was the huge transparent crystal in the center position.
