Chapter 3716: Ancient City

basketball player. He must also be very physically capable. How could he possibly be afraid of you"All the female students in the class rushed to Ye Bufan's side.Cao Wu directly struck a Taekwondo st...Ye Fan now held the Supreme Token of the Zixing Building, plus the token for the Hundred Strong Competition. He led everyone to Zhongtian Domain without any obstruction.

Stepping out of the teleportation array, he summoned the Nine Heavens and flew directly toward Yuan Gu City.

Before he returned to the Nether Realm, he had already made arrangements. Ling Jianfeng took the people of the Lingyun Sword Sect and set off first to meet up there together.

Now the Nine Heavens is already a high-grade flying immortal artifact, its speed is astonishingly fast, and it rushes forward at an incredible pace.

Luo Bingyan exclaimed, "Big brother, your flying magic weapon is too fast, I'm afraid it could even catch up to the speed of a celestial being."

At this rate, we'll probably get there in less than three days. It's much faster than before.

Ye Bufan had never truly witnessed the strength of a Xianjun, nor did he know how much faster the speed of the Nine Heavens and Xianjun was.

He said, "By the way, you've lived in Zhongtian Domain for so long, have you ever heard of the Shadow Gate"

"Heard of it."

Luo Bingyan's expression changed slightly upon hearing these three words, "The Shadow Gate holds significant influence within the Central Heaven domain. Although it stands outside the Three Sects, Five Clans, and Seven Great Families, no one dares to underestimate it."

"In the fairy realm, strength decides everything, for they possess terrifying power."

Luo Bingyan said, “No one knows where the Dark Shadow Gate's headquarters is. Their style of operation is assassination, and the disciples in the sect practice assassination techniques.”

Shen Qiyun curled her lips: "What's there to be impressed by It's just a killer sect at best, a shadowy existence that puffs itself up to seem extraordinary."

Their relationship has always been antagonistic, but now that Ye Bufan has softened, his words are still barbed.

"You know, the Shadow Sect isn't just an ordinary assassins' guild."

Luo Bingyan's words were also unceremonious, "The Shadow Gate is extremely powerful. It is rumored that their sect master has already reached the realm of Immortal Venerable."

Moreover, assassination is not solely determined by cultivation level. Sometimes even an Immortal Monarch can assassinate a powerful being at the Immortal Venerable level, and an Immortal King can slay an Immortal Monarch.

To be specific, no one knows exactly how many strong individuals they have because they've always been hidden in the shadows, so they aren't included among the Three Sects and Five Factions. However, no one dares to underestimate them.

Her words caused the surrounding crowd to become serious. A sect with such powerful strength was already formidable, and if it remained hidden in the shadows, it would indeed be difficult to provoke.

Luo Bingyan continued, "The Dark Shadow Sect's level is extremely high. To ask them to take action, it costs at least one hundred million mid-grade fairy crystals each time."

In other words, there wouldn't be many people in the entire Zhongtian domain worthy of their assassination.

At this point, she looked at Ye Bufan with some surprise, "Senior Brother, how did you know about the Shadow Gate"

"I am one of the few. The woman who attacked me a few days ago was from the Shadow Sect."

Ye Bufan wore a look of helplessness. He had originally thought this was just an ordinary sect, but he hadn't expected it to be so powerful and difficult to deal with. Things were going to be troublesome for him for a while.

What

Everyone present changed color. They had just said that the Shadow Gate was extremely difficult to deal with, but they didn't expect Ye Bufan to become their target.

Sidu Dianmo said, "Brother Ye, don't you have the token for the Hundred Schools Hegemony Tournament in your hand"

Luo Bingyan shook her head: "This thing can only restrict the participating sects, it's useless against the Shadow Gate."

Shen Qiyun was a little worried: "What should we do then Won't we have to face endless assassination attempts in the future"

Luo Bingyan said: "The Shadow Gate also has its own rules. To take on a mission, the minimum is 100 million mid-grade fairy crystals, but they only make three moves."

If one fails three times in a row, they will give up on this goal and the 100 million mid-grade immortal crystals will not be refunded.

"Only three moves"

Shen Qiyun's expression lit up, "Then wouldn't that mean Senior Brother just needs to hold on for two more times and he'll be fine"

"It's not that easy."

Luo Bingyan's expression was grave, "The rules of the Shadow Gate are set this way, but over so many years, very few people have been able to escape three assassinations consecutively."

After the first failure, they will definitely send stronger assassins the second time, and the third time it will be even stronger again.

Hearing this news, Ye Bufan also felt a headache coming on. This time, a celestial king-level assassin was sent out. What about next time

Is it the peak of Immortal Kings, or is a direct strike from an Immortal Sovereign

"Is there no other way to crack it" said Kimmy.

"No," Luo Bingyan said. "The rules of the Shadow Sect are known throughout the entire Zhongtian Domain, they always take money first and then do business. Once they accept a task, they will never give up halfway."

Upon hearing this, the several people present all wore expressions of concern.

Ye Bufan, however, smiled faintly: "Don't worry everyone, it's not that easy to kill me. Didn't they just fail this time"

"Where there's a first time, there's a second. Just get through three times and it'll be over completely."

Although others were still a little worried, they thought it made sense.

This is a man who is good at creating miracles. Along the way, although there were constant dangers, he passed through them safely and unharmed.

The rest of the time was spent in casual conversation. On the third day, in the late afternoon, they saw a huge city towering into the clouds from afar.

Grandiose in scale and imbued with an aura of ancient vicissitudes, it is the renowned primordial city of Zhongtian domain.

Ye Bufan received the Nine Heavens, and everyone slowly flew forward.

As an indigenous person of the Central Heavenly Domain, Luo Bingyan walked and introduced the situation to everyone.

This ancient city was built for the Ancient Secret Realm and belongs to no one. It is jointly managed by the Three Sects, Five Schools, and Seven Great Families.

It has its own city ordinances, and anyone here must abide by them.

The city lord is served by people from the three major sects, and a rotation occurs every century.

That is why Yuan Gu City held such a high status, no one dared to cause trouble here on a normal day.

As they spoke, the crowd arrived at the city gate. Even a random guard here was of the level of a Great Heavenly Immortal.

Ye Bufan displayed the token for the Hundred Gates Competition. After inspection, he led everyone into the city.

The city bustled with activity, surrounded by shops lined up on all sides. Many immortals could be seen here buying and selling a variety of resources.

Luo Bingyan said: "Yuangu City is very prosperous. Here you can buy a lot of fairy herbs and other cultivation resources that you can't usually find."

And the transactions are fair, no need to worry about being forced to buy or sell, no one dares to act recklessly here.

When it came to the once-in-a-century Hundred Sects Hegemony Battle, disciples from all major sects flocked here.

Those who belong to a sect cheer for their own, and those who don't have one come to watch the excitement and broaden their horizons.

As the crowd chatted amongst themselves, they soon arrived at the designated relay station for the competition.

The Hundred Doors Competition has been held for many years, and all the programs are extremely established. The station is very large, and it is divided into one hundred separate courtyards.

Arriving at the door, Ye Bufan once again presented his competition badge to the person in charge here and was then led to a small courtyard.

A wooden sign hung at the entrance, with the words "Diletto" inscribed on it.

As soon as they stepped through the door, Ling Jianfeng and the others immediately came forward to greet them.

"Master, you're finally here! I have something important to report!"looked down upon or for some other reason, the alchemy methods in this Immortal Realm are undoubtedly far more powerful than those found in the Cultivation Realm.It is no exaggeration to say that as l...
