His narrowed eyes suddenly discovered the presence of those opposite them. But his gaze only stopped at Qin Jiuyang's body for a brief moment before he froze at sight of the sloppy old man.
"Oh?" he said. "Interesting. You are able to enter this area even without the King of Darkness helping you? Could it be that you have prepared a heaven-worshipping ceremony and entered here successfully through that?"
Bai Luo's expression was calm, not humbling himself despite being in the presence of the old man. "Paying my respects to Elder Jiu," he said.
The old man glanced at him, meaningfully saying, "Not bad. Merely a step away from the Fairy Realm. You are quite close to Long Wuxin of the Heavenly Law Alliance! Seize the opportunity in the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Pavilion to break through. This way, you wouldn't be letting down the King of Darkness, who has been meditating for 100 years."
