Chapter 1243: Chapter 685 Dongyue_2 Chapter 1243: Chapter 685 Dongyue_2 From the moment they entered the Spirit World, they felt its mystery and danger. They proceeded with caution, always vigilant of the movements around them. They knew that any oversight could lead to fatal consequences.
In the Spirit World, they encountered many attacks by Divine Beasts and Guardian Spirits. The immense power of these Divine Beasts and Guardian Spirits put them under unprecedented pressure. However, they did not shrink back, instead, they courageously fought against them. Their strength and wisdom kept improving and displaying, and their faith and determination grew ever stronger.
After several days of arduous battles and treks, they finally reached the location of the Bodhi Tree. Their hearts were filled with excitement and joy, as if they saw the dawn of victory. They knew that all this was the result of their united hearts, their courage to move forward, and their continuous exploration.
Under the Bodhi Tree, they started the long journey of cultivation. They felt the endless strength and wisdom brought by the Bodhi Tree, and their Cultivation Levels kept rising and breaking through. Their spirits were cleansed and purified, becoming purer and more resolute. They knew this would be the most precious experience and treasure of their lives.
And all these achievements and gains were inseparable from Logan's guidance and leadership, as well as their own efforts and perseverance. They believed that in the days to come, they would continue to join hands and face more challenges and opportunities together.
“What do you plan to do next? You surely aren't planning to join those Great Sects!” A disciple clad in green robes asked with a bit of teasing mixed with some worry. His gaze shifted back and forth on Logan, trying to catch a clue on the face of this unpredictably acting senior brother.
Upon hearing this, Logan's lips curled up into a meaningful smile, his eyes rolled thoughtfully, and he already had a plan in mind. Well, that could be a pretty good approach. Let those powerful Great Sects take the lead, while he followed secretly, enabling him to observe the situation and avoid unnecessary risks. After all, his Sword Spirit was currently in a period of convalescence, weak in strength and unlikely to be of much use in the short term. Realizing this, Logan sighed softly, feeling reluctant yet also understanding the importance of acting according to one's capabilities.
He leisurely walked out from the Shadows, his steps seemingly casual, yet each one carried profound intent. Elder Talon Skyler stood not far away, speaking in low voices with several Sect Elders. Seeing Logan suddenly appear, he paused for a moment, and then his eyes flashed with a complex light. He quickly recomposed his thoughts, wondering if Logan had overheard his conversation with the disciple. If that was the case, things could be tricky. Knowing Logan, whose strategies were deep and unexpected, letting him seize any leverage could have unimaginable consequences.
Several Sect Elders also noticed Logan's presence, exchanging significant glances with one another. They too felt uneasy, fearing that their earlier discussions might have been overheard by Logan, potentially leading to unnecessary misunderstandings or troubles.
Logan, as if seeing through everyone's thoughts, wore a faint smile and spoke with an air of nonchalance, “Why are you all still standing around here? Shouldn't you hurry up and leave? Or do you wish to stay here for tea and chat?” His tone carried a bit of teasing, as if he truly just asked casually without any other implications.
At his words, everyone was taken aback, then quickly found excuses to take their leave. Some said they needed to prepare supplies, others mentioned urgent matters they had to attend to, and the scene became slightly chaotic for a time. Logan watched their hasty retreat, a subtle slyness flickering in his eyes. He knew that his words had had the desired effect, at least temporarily dispelling their doubts about him.
After everyone left, Logan slowly walked up to Elder Talon Skyler and said with a light chuckle, “Elder Talon Skyler, it seems our plan needs a little adjustment. Since those Great Sects are willing to be the spearheads, let's just go with the flow and have them scout ahead.”
Hearing this, Elder Talon Skyler's brows furrowed slightly, and after a moment's contemplation, he slowly nodded, “That's fine, but Logan, you must act carefully and avoid putting yourself in danger. With matters concerning the Sword Spirit, you need to be even more cautious and not rush things.”
Logan nodded, indicating he understood. He well knew the peril of this journey, but for the sake of achieving the goals in his heart, he was willing to take the risk. Moreover, with those Great Sects blocking the way ahead, his own actions could be more unrestrained.
In the following days, Logan started to secretly prepare. He kept an eye on the movements of those Great Sects while quietly arranging his own plans. He knew that this trip to the Spirit World would be an important test in his life and an excellent opportunity to enhance his strength and realize his ambitions.
As for those Great Sects, although they internally rejoiced upon learning that Logan would not be accompanying them, they also remained vigilant. They understood that a man like Logan was no ordinary individual; his absence might well signify a greater scheme. Thus, they prepared more cautiously, fearing unforeseen dangers in the Spirit World.
Finally, the day of departure arrived. The Great Sects set off towards the Spirit World in a grand procession, while Logan stealthily followed behind, ready to make his move at the critical moment. His heart filled with anticipation and nervousness, he knew this journey would be the most significant adventure of his life.
Within the Spirit World, Logan, with his exceptional wit and sharp insight, managed to turn peril into safety multiple times. He successfully avoided the traps and dangers the Great Sects encountered and cleverly used their strength to secure more opportunities for himself. After a series of challenges, the Great Sects began to recognize his importance, extending olive branches to him in invitation.
Logan accepted their overtures with a smile, yet held his own calculations in his heart. He knew that this venture into the Spirit World was not merely a test of his power but also a refinement of his intelligence and courage. He believed that as long as he persevered, one day he would become the most dazzling presence on the Mainland.
“We were just about to leave when, right outside, we bumped into Elder Talon Skyler. What a coincidence, perfect for catching up!” said a Sect Disciple clad in purple robes with a smile, a hint of surprise twinkling in his eyes. The other disciples likewise chimed in, agreeing it was a rare opportunity.
Elder Talon Skyler smiled and nodded, his gaze sweeping across those present as if he could see into each person's thoughts. He spoke slowly, “Indeed, such a fortunate encounter. If there's nothing else, let's return to our Sects for now and get together another day.”
The crowd was about to nod in agreement when a thought suddenly surged in their minds. Logan still owed them a favor–a not insignificant bargaining chip that might potentially be leveraged to compel him to assist with certain tasks. With this in mind, a few Sect Disciples exchanged glances, each harboring their own schemes.
They approached Logan with smiles plastered on their faces, but a cunning glint in their eyes. “Logan, about this favor you said you owe us–was that for real, or were you just pulling our leg?” one of the disciples asked casually, though his tone carried an obvious probing edge.
At this, Logan's lips curled up slightly as he nearly forgot about this matter. Seeing them like this, he immediately understood their intentions. Feigning surprise, he responded, “Oh, how could you still remember that? Of course, I haven't forgotten. How could my word ever be unreliable?”
“That's reassuring, that's reassuring,” the disciples hurriedly nodded, though the greed in their eyes became even more apparent. They started to discuss animatedly among themselves, some suggesting Logan help concoct elixirs, others wanting him to share cultivation insights.
Logan watched them, amused inwardly. He knew all too well that not one of their petty schemes could escape his notice.
