Urban Invincible Overlord

"Junior Sister, don't be in such a rush!"

Ye Wuya shouted urgently, but he couldn't stop Linglong.

Yun Zong laughed and said, "Senior Brother, don't worry. Although Junior Sister joined the sect the latest and is the youngest, she has exceptional talent. This time she also brought a Spiritual Treasure bestowed by Uncle Master Yue, so nothing will happen to her."

Ye Wuya breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, nothing should happen. But you all know that Uncle Master Yue dotes on her immensely. He specifically reminded us before we left, ensuring that Junior Sister Linglong doesn't get hurt. Otherwise, we won't be spared when we return. How can such a difficult task be entrusted to her?"

Du Hui said, "Yes, yes, if Uncle Master Yue finds out, he will surely scold us."

"But she's already gone down, we should just let her be."

"How about we go down and take a look too?"

"If you want to go, you go. I've been staying in this Land of Extreme Cold for too long, and I can't take it much longer."

"Yes, it's too cold. Let's hide on the Divine Wind Treasure Ship."

Although Foundation Establishment Cultivators have gone through a form of rebirth and are said to be impervious to cold and heat, they have not truly attained Physical Body Vajra. Staying in such an extremely cold place for too long is unbearable and consumes a lot of True Yuan.

Although Ye Wuya was concerned about Linglong, he was the leader of this trip and needed to also take care of the safety of the other junior brothers. He said to the two junior brothers whose cultivation seemed lower and who appeared unable to endure, "You two go back to the treasure ship and recover. If there's any discovery, I'll notify you."

"Thank you, Senior Brother."

The two were overjoyed, clasped their fists in salute, then flew away back to the Divine Wind Treasure Ship, which was hovering high in the sky.

Yun Zong glanced at the backs of the two, snorted softly, and said, "Sneaky opportunists."

Ye Wuya quickly said, "Junior Brother Yun Zong, don't speak like that. Everyone's mindset is different and cannot be forced."

"Yes." Yun Zong still held great respect for the senior brother, and immediately shut his mouth.

The few of them looked towards the pitch-black seabed below, releasing strong Divine Thoughts, but had already lost track of Linglong's figure.

Ye Wuya thought for a moment and said, "Junior brothers, guard here. I'll go take a look."

Yun Zong said, "Senior Brother, why don't I go instead?"

The senior brother thought for a moment, then nodded, "Alright. This planet doesn't seem like it has Great Cultivators, and no Fierce Beasts or Strange Creatures have been seen, but you must still be cautious."

Yun Zong smiled and said, "Rest assured, Senior Brother, I will be careful."

As he spoke, he leaped and dove into the deep sea below.

This place was originally an area of eternal night in the polar region, where darkness engulfed the world.

On the surface of the ice, there was still a weak reflection of light, but beneath the seawater, it was completely pitch black, with nothing visible even with an outstretched hand.

Although Yun Zong was a Foundation Establishment Cultivator with night vision capability, in this extremely dark deep sea, his sight could only cover a range of three to five meters.

Fortunately, his Divine Soul was strong, and by releasing Divine Thought, he could sense everything hundreds of meters ahead.

Not knowing how deep the sea was, Yun Zong controlled his body weight, using his profound Cultivation to dive deeper rapidly.

As he went deeper and deeper, he felt an immense pressure. Although the Foundation Establishment body's functions were powerful and could sustain breathing for a long time, under such enormous burden, he still felt a bit worried.

How deep could it possibly be?

Moreover, Junior Sister Linglong had only dived into the sea just before me; how come I haven't caught up with her yet?

Could her Cultivation Realm be higher than mine?

Yun Zong was somewhat unconvinced.

Although she was a cultivation genius who had only joined less than ten years ago and was adored by the sect's seniors, he wasn't bad either. He successfully achieved Foundation Establishment after thirty-seven years of cultivation and had reached it more than forty years before her. How could he possibly lose to her in the realm?

It must be Uncle Master Yue who gave her some Magic Treasure that enabled rapid underwater movement.

With this thought, he continued to dive for a full five minutes.

Yun Zong only felt slightly suffocated.

The pressure was too great.

Although he could still hold on, he was beginning to feel a bit afraid.

This sea is too deep, isn't it? At my diving speed, even if it's not a thousand meters, it should at least be eight hundred by now.

But probing with Divine Thought, I still can't detect the bottom.

Wait...

Suddenly, Yun Zong sensed something unusual.

He carefully perceived and his eyes lit up.

Yes, it's Spiritual Energy.

The Spiritual Power in this seawater is much denser than before. Cоntеnt sоurсеd frоm МV4LЕМРYR – Мy Virtuаl Librаry Еmpirе.

Are we getting close?

Yun Zong's heart swelled with joy at the thought. If Linglong had dove down, it wouldn't do him any good to return without seeing her. He couldn't lose face in front of the junior brothers.

Besides, there must be a Spirit Vein down there. Even if it's a low-quality one, there should be many Spirit Stones. After coming all this way to the Outer Domain, I must fill my storage bag.

With determination, Yun Zong continued to dive.

A few minutes later, his eyes suddenly brightened as his Divine Thought detected a solid place.

Finally reached the bottom.

He quickened his pace.

A moment later, his Divine Thought detected Linglong's position.

Linglong also noticed him, and the two communicated through Divine Thought, with Linglong saying, "Senior Brother Yun Zong, why are you here too?"

"I'm worried about you, so I came to check," Yun Zong replied.

Linglong gratefully said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Yun Zong, for your concern. I'm fine. Come over here. This place must have been a sacred place of cultivation a long time ago."

"Oh?" Yun Zong was intrigued and quickly searched in her direction.

To think there could be a sacred place of cultivation hidden in the deep sea?

Could it be that many years ago, this place wasn't underwater but on land?

Feeling astonished, Yun Zong soon found Linglong.

Within three meters, in the extreme darkness, they could actually see each other.

Linglong was standing in front of a massive stone gate.

Above the stone gate were three ancient characters inscribed: White Jade City.

Yun Zong's expression changed, "White Jade City?"

Linglong said, "Yes. Isn't it strange, Senior Brother Yun Zong, that we can actually recognize these characters?"

Yun Zong took a deep breath and said, "But we don't recognize the current characters on this planet. Does it mean the former inhabitants were from the Central Great World?"

Linglong's expression shifted slightly.

This is highly possible.

According to what the seniors said when Lingxiao Sect discovered this passage, it was once connected to the Central Great World, but it was cut off for unknown reasons later.

Does this mean that when it was connected before, predecessors from the Cultivation Realm might have come here, which is why we could recognize the characters inscribed here?

Thinking of this, Linglong asked, "Senior Brother Yun Zong, with your broad knowledge, have you ever heard of White Jade City?"

Yun Zong shook his head and said, "Never heard of it. It seems like a sect's name. But among the numerous sects in the Central Great World, I may not remember them all. If a sect like White Jade City existed, I should have some memory of it, but I don't."

Linglong was slightly disappointed but quickly adjusted her emotions, transmitting, "Senior Brother, I observed earlier that this is the peak of a high mountain under the sea. If White Jade City is a sect, it must have been behind this stone gate."

Yun Zong perceived and said joyfully, "The Spiritual Energy is also emanating from behind this stone gate. Let's go in and have a look."

Linglong nodded and said, "Alright."

"Junior Sister, stand back, and I'll break open this gate," Yun Zong said, drawing out his life-bound Magic Sword and slashing it toward the stone gate.
