Moxu Sect was located at the edge of a winding mountain range, with dark palaces standing in rows, surrounded by black mist all day long, exuding an air of gloom and grandeur.
Lin Xiao and Chu Xu entered the range of this gloomy and grand palace.
In a short time, Lin Xiao was brought to the most magnificent and atmospheric palace in the depths.
At this moment, inside the palace, facing the seat, an old man stood.
This old man was burly, dressed in somewhat casual yet uniquely stylish black hemp clothes, his head full of messy black hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a rugged face, with criss-crossing wrinkles piled up, and the lower part of his face covered in black stubble.
His pair of eyes were like abysses and seas, making it impossible to see through. His whole person exuded an aura of unyielding authority.
“This is a half-step Martial Saint powerhouse?” Seeing this old man, Lin Xiao could not help but think inwardly.
Before Feng You Yu made a move against the three sects’ disciples, he had heard that all three sects had half-step Martial Saints in charge.
The old man in black hemp clothes before him, whose depth was unfathomable, must be the half-step Martial Saint powerhouse overseeing Moxu Sect.
A half-step Martial Saint, though not a true Martial Saint, had one foot already in the Martial Saint realm, far surpassing an ordinary ninth-level Martial Emperor.
Or rather, he had stood at the ninth-level Martial Emperor realm for countless years, only a fine line away from becoming a Martial Saint powerhouse.
One could imagine how terrifying his strength would be.
Although the one before him did not emit any pressure, it still made people involuntarily feel awe and trepidation.
“Sect Master, the person is here.” After entering the hall, Chu Xu said to the old man in black hemp clothes on the hall’s seat.
“Greetings, Sect Master!” Lin Xiao also saluted the Moxu Sect Master.
The Moxu Sect Master nodded faintly. He had complete trust in Chu Xu’s handling of matters.
While his gaze scanned Lin Xiao, his divine sense also probed Lin Xiao’s body. Unable to probe Lin Xiao’s cultivation aura, a hint of surprise appeared on the Moxu Sect Master’s face. He said: “At such a young age, even I cannot see through your cultivation. Little brother is indeed extraordinary.”
Lin Xiao was also slightly surprised by the Moxu Sect Master’s politeness. He responded courteously: “Sect Master overpraises me. This junior merely used a special method to conceal his aura.”
The Moxu Sect Master laughed heartily: “A junior who can use a special method to block my perception, this is the first time I have encountered one.”
The Moxu Sect Master continued: “I believe little brother knows why we called you here. Rest assured, just recount the scene at that time in detail, and our Moxu Sect will not make things difficult for you.”
Chu Xu coughed awkwardly twice at the side and interrupted: “Sect Master, there is one more thing…”
“What is it?” the Moxu Sect Master asked.
“His cultivation has reached the eighth level of Martial Monarch realm, but the explosive close combat power he displayed could repel Han Yue Sect’s Fu Chan.” Chu Xu said.
“Oh?” A surprised expression appeared on the Moxu Sect Master’s face. An eighth-level Martial Monarch repelling a fifth-level Martial Emperor, this cross-realm combat ability was unbelievable.
Previously, because Lin Xiao could conceal his aura and remain composed, it had given him a favorable impression.
He had not thought the other party was a genius.
But now, he was certain that the other party was a super genius. Even Moxu Sect did not have such a figure.
His gaze towards Lin Xiao could not help but rise a few degrees. He even suddenly had the idea of taking the other party as a Moxu Sect disciple.
“Most importantly, he has refined the same essence blood as Long Tu Tian.” Chu Xu continued.
“What?” At this moment, a look of great shock appeared on the Moxu Sect Master’s face.
Seeing the Moxu Sect Master’s reaction, Lin Xiao felt relieved in his heart. Long Tu Tian’s reputation was indeed great, even shocking the Moxu Sect Master.
Cupping his hands, Lin Xiao immediately declared: “This junior Lin Xiao is indeed from the same sect as Senior Brother Long Tu Tian!”
“This, is this true?” The Moxu Sect Master looked at Chu Xu in shock and asked.
Chu Xu nodded: “In the qi and blood, there are identical traces. The two must have refined some kind of essence blood related to dragon.”
The Moxu Sect Master took a long breath and paused for a long time.
Now, it was Lin Xiao’s turn to be puzzled. He could not help but ask: “This junior has one point of confusion. I wonder how Senior Chu detected the qi and blood in my body? Moreover, he even knows what kind of essence blood I refined?”
If it was said that he could detect his qi and blood, that could barely be understood.
But to detect what kind of essence blood he had refined, that was incomprehensible.
Before Chu Xu could answer, the Moxu Sect Master at the side said: “He did not detect it, but smelled it. He possesses the Blood Spirit Nose, a special innate talent nose that can smell out the other’s qi and blood. From one or two hundred li away, he can smell each person’s qi and blood, and what is mixed in the qi and blood, he can smell out.”
Lin Xiao was shocked in his heart.
Blood Spirit Nose? From one or two hundred li away, he could smell out each person’s qi and blood, and what was mixed in the qi and blood, he could smell out?
This was too powerful.
This seemed even more powerful than the spirit beast Mei Tian Mo!
Mei Tian Mo could smell out people from the Fate Divine Hall, but it had not reached the level of smelling out what was mixed in others’ qi and blood or what they had refined.
With the Blood Spirit Nose innate talent, no matter how the other party concealed their aura or disguised themselves, they could not escape the other’s tracking.
Lin Xiao could not help but sigh in admiration. Central Continent was indeed full of remarkable people. One elder from Moxu Sect possessed such a unique innate talent.
No wonder Chu Xu was so certain that he was related to Long Tu Tian, and the Moxu Sect Master trusted Chu Xu so much.
“Hehe, apart from smelling, it does not have much use.” Chu Xu smiled self-deprecatingly at the side.
“Senior is too modest. This use is not small.” Lin Xiao sighed.
Chu Xu did not deny it.
At this time, the Moxu Sect Master said: “Since you are Long Tu Tian’s fellow sect junior brother, our Moxu Sect is even less likely to make things difficult for you. On the contrary, Long Tu Tian once did our Moxu Sect a favour. Nephew Lin, if there is anything you need and our Moxu Sect can help, we will definitely lend a hand.”
The Moxu Sect Master had already changed how he addressed Lin Xiao, and his attitude was much warmer.
Lin Xiao also felt the change. He nodded and recounted in detail the events of that day when Feng You Yu seized the item, made a move against the three sects’ juniors, and the Moxu Sect’s eighth-level Martial Emperor was killed by the Martial Saint. However, he concealed matters like Li Ren Chou and the Fate Divine Hall.
This seemed not too different from what the Moxu Sect Master had anticipated. There was no major change on the Moxu Sect Master’s face. He only asked Lin Xiao to draw a portrait of that Martial Saint.
After doing this, Lin Xiao said: “Sect Master, actually, this junior came to Moxu Sect with a request. This junior plans to go to Spirit Pool Island to participate in the Continental Spirit Controller Grand Competition, so I would like to borrow Moxu Sect’s teleportation array to set off quickly and head to the state-level teleportation array controlled by the Ji Family.”
“You are also a spirit controller?” The Moxu Sect Master said in surprise.
