Hao Ren’s group flew out of the valley and ascended toward Sixth Heaven.
Fifth Heaven and Sixth Heaven had strict divisions. Fifth Heaven cultivators were not allowed to enter Sixth Heaven without the permission of Sixth Heaven sects.
Therefore, there was a large-scale one-way array formation between Fifth Heaven and Sixth Heaven. Sixth Heaven cultivators could enter Fifth Heaven at any time, but to enter Sixth Heaven from Fifth Heaven, they must pass through a special passage.
Such a passage was jointly safeguarded by more than a dozen Sixth Heaven sects to avoid Fifth Heaven cultivators from smuggling into Sixth Heaven.
Of course, such an array formation was ineffective for array formation masters such as Zhen Congming.
Zhen Congming casually pointed with a finger, and the array formation melted like a plastic bag, opening a big hole.
Hao Ren’s group snuck in.
The first feeling of entering Sixth Heaven was the abundance of nature essence.
blowing into their faces.
If the average concentration of nature essence on Fifth Heaven was three or four times that of First Heaven, then the intensity of nature essence on Sixth Heaven was more than a dozen times that of First Heaven. Any mountain or any corner here would become a treasured land on First Heaven. Also, if there were any places on Fifth Heavenly that possessed this intensity, a lot of sets would fight over it.
The intensity of nature essence of Hao Ren’s Ethereal Summit was only six or seven times that of First Heaven, slightly higher than the average on Fifth Heaven, and it caused the three nearby sects to fight for it.
“If I could cultivate here, the effect would definitely be better,” Hao Ren thought.
His thought actually echoed that of the cultivators on Fifth Heaven. However, unless the Fifth Heaven cultivators had excellent talent, exceptionally accepted by Sixth Heaven sects, or cultivated to the Nascent Soul Realm and became a truly powerful cultivator, they could never enter Sixth Heaven in their lifetime.
“Follow me,” Zhen Congming said coldly, stood still on his black flight dharma treasure, and flew in the direction of the west.
Zhen Congming was a frequent visitor of Sixth Heaven. He even ran a few laps on Seventh Heaven. Therefore, he was very familiar with the location of the sects on Sixth Heaven.
For these few years, his master, Qiu Niu went, into seclusion cultivate in the Nine Dragon Palace, leaving him alone in the East Ocean Dragon Palace. Without the support of Qiu Niu, Zhen Congming didn’t dare to wander around Sixth Heaven. Even in Fifth Heaven, he must be careful.
With his realm, he still had a certain chance of being caught. If he didn’t transmit messages to his master, those sects would treat him as a normal Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator and kill him. If he reversed his realm and showed his true form, it would be big trouble… It wouldn’t be fun to disturb his master who was cultivating in the Nine Dragon Palace.
Zhen Congming’s black disk-like flight dharma treasure drew a black tail, and Hao Ren and the Lu sisters followed immediately behind. This black disk was ugly, but it was a top-tier dharma treasure. If driven in full force, the speed was comparable to the traveling speed of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.
The speed of Little White was also not below the Nascent Soul Realm, and the Lu sisters were on the Nascent Soul Realm. Therefore, they had no issues dashing forward at full speed.
However, Zhao Yanzi was flying on her Purple Green Treasure Sword. With her power barely reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm, it was a little demanding for her to catch up with others.
Hao Ren turned and saw Zhao Yanzi falling behind. He patted Little White’s butt, made a half circle turn, and held Zhao Yanzi’s wrist.
Zhao Yanzi suddenly felt that her traveling speed drastically increased and felt that it was empty underneath her feet. Hao Ren picked up the Purple Green Treasure Sword by hand and gently lifted Zhao Yanzi onto the back of Little White. Now, she was sitting in front of Hao Ren.
“Hold the sword.” Hao Ren put the Purple Green Treasure Sword in Zhao Yanzi’s hand.
Zhao Yanzi’s blushed slightly. She wanted to say a few words, but she couldn’t. She thought that Hao Ren would take the opportunity to mock her, but Hao Ren put his arms around her shoulders and patted Little White’s neck.
“Ruff…” Little White sped up and immediately caught up with Zhen Congming and the Lu sisters.
In the high altitude, Zhao Yanzi only felt the warmth of Hao Ren’s chest and arms, and her face couldn’t help but feel hot. Fortunately, Hao Ren couldn’t see the change in her face in the dark.
The overall scenery of Sixth Heaven was similar to that of Fifth Heaven, except that the mountains were higher and the distance between them was greater.
Floating among the mountains were layers of thick fog. If the group fell from here, they would fall directly to Fifth Heaven. If they were unlucky, they could drop all the way to First Heaven.
Therefore, if the cultivators on and above Fifth Heaven didn’t reach the Foundation Establishment Realm, they wouldn’t dare to fly between the peaks.
Hua hua hua… Hao Ren’s group drew multiple dark shadows in the sky.
Zhen Congming knew the way and went around other sects on Sixth Heaven.
The Sixth Heaven sects were not to be messed with like the Fifth Heaven sects. Each sect had at least one Nascent Soul Realm cultivator for safeguarding, and often one or two more of them were in seclusion. If the Sixth Heaven sects found traces of Hao Ren’s group, it would be troublesome.
“We cannot enter from the front. We have to go from the back mountain,” Zhen Congming who was very experienced whispered as he stood on the black disk.
He quickly turned at a corner and took Hao Ren to the back mountain.
The back mountain of the Sky Mountain Sect opened 1,000 acres of fertile land, and there was a large area full of spirit beasts; it was at least 100 times bigger than the Herb King Valley.
The Sixth Heaven sects were indeed more powerful. This back mountain alone was enough to build three sects on Fifth Heaven.
“These mountains are the core areas of the Sky Mountain Sect. In fact, all six mountain ranges that are scattered around here belong to the Sky Mountain Sect. The inner disciples live in the center of the sect, and outer disciples live in the surrounding mountains,” Zhen Congming said while flying.
“How many disciples are there?” Hao Ren asked.
“There are 30,000 inner disciples and 150,000 outer disciples,” Zhen Congming said.
Hao Ren was secretly surprised, and he no longer took tonight’s infiltration lightly. He suspected that the female disciple who he encountered should be a core disciple who was above inner disciples. Her arrogance in Fifth Heaven was indeed reasonable.
In a few words’ time, Zhen Congming had taken Hao Ren’s group around to a small forest in the back mountain.
“This is the beast region. It’s the safest to get in from here.” Zhen Congming landed on the ground, took out a set of tools from his sleeves, and placed them in order.
“This is the edge of the mountain array formation. Once we destroy a formation footing, we can enter. Of course, there will be all kinds of array formations inside, but it will be fine if you follow me.” Zhen Congming embedded a spirit stone into a temporary array formation he arranged. Shallow blue light emerged a few centimeters in front of him.
Zhen Congming raised a small yellow flag as if it were a guide to lead the way, and a small hole appeared in the blue mountain array formation immediately.
Such a gap was enough for Hao Ren’s group to go through with ease without triggering the array formation.
Zhen Congming’s techniques were probably insufficient to deal with Seventh Heaven’s array formations, but it was more than enough for Sixth Heaven sects.
The Sky Mountain Sect’s herb garden was robbed once by Zhen Congming a few years ago. The incident shocked all the high-ranking cultivators of the sect, and the patrol force doubled in the following months.
Today, Zhen Congming was here again!
Zhen Congming who was leading the way easily broke open another array formation.
In the wild land of the back mountain, there was a large group of snow lions. They were quietly asleep, but they suddenly felt that enemies were breaking in. They all opened their eyes, and their eyes shone chillingly in the dark.
Zhao Yanzi who walked side by side with Hao Ren hurriedly grabbed Hao Ren’s arm.
Hao Ren raised his left hand, and a ball of fire appeared in his hand.
As the fire rose, they clearly saw that nearly 200 snow lions had surrounded them.
The snow lions were at least level 2!
Level 2 spirit beasts! Each of them was equivalent to a Core Fruition Realm cultivator!
Little White went to the front, roared twice, rolled on the ground, and swayed its tail, trying to show the snow lions that they were friendly.
“Roar…” the 200 snow lions growled together.
Little White saw the situation was not good, and it hurriedly hid behind Hao Ren.
“Humph!” Zhen Congming stood in the same place and kicked the ground.
A dominating aura was emitted from Zhen Congming.
In a flash, the snow lions showed fear in their eyes.
Immediately after, they all groaned and bowed their heads while they scattered.
Little White ran from Hao Ren’s leg to Zhen Congming’s happily and rubbed its head against his knees.
“This lion…” Hao Ren was completely speechless toward Little White.
Zhen Congming led the group onward. Those level 2 snow lions that were awakened all avoided the group, and those level 3 snow lions shrunk in their own caves, simply not daring to come out.
As for the snow lions on and above level 4, they were fed by the senior elders from the sects and didn’t live in the wild.
For ordinary cultivators, these beasts were extremely dangerous, but for Hao Ren’s group, they were not a threat at all.
Although there were also other spirit beasts, once the creatures saw Zhen Congming, they also hid far away.
Zhen Congming broke open the array formations layer by layer and led the group to the herb region of the back mountain.
Sky Mountain Sect was known for its spirit beasts and spiritual herbs. Therefore, the back mountain was divided into the beast region and the herb region. Of course, the goal of Hao Ren’s group was the Scroll Pavilion. Therefore, Zhen Congming deliberately went around the critical areas of the beast and herb regions. These areas were often the most heavily guarded and had the most complex array formations.
Back in the days, Zhen Congming plucked all the spiritual herbs in the critical areas in the herb region, which made the Sky Mountain Sect suffer heavy losses.
“Hey! Where are you thieves from? How dare you sneak into the Sky Mountain Sect!”
Suddenly, a loud female voice sounded on a cliff to the right of Hao Ren.
