Chapter 170: God Bless Our Great Mystery Sect

Seeing Su Chen return to the sect, the two disciples guarding the gate were extremely excited. They had never expected that Senior Brother Su Chen would actually respond to them.
Some time ago, there was news that Senior Brother Su Chen had defeated Dashang’s Marquis Champion!
They didn’t know what kind of person Marquis Champion was.
But there was one thing they were very clear about.
That was, Senior Brother Su Chen had already become a Nirvana Realm expert!
The Nirvana Realm experts were all elder-level figures in the Great Mystery Sect.
“I heard that Senior Brother Su Chen transcended nine Nirvana Tribulations. 1 wonder if it’s true.”
“You misheard! Senior Brother Su Chen had clearly passed ten Nirvana Tribulations!”
“Mm…”
“It doesn’t matter how many Nirvana Tribulations he transcended. The most important thing now is that Senior Brother Su Chen has already broken through to Nirvana Realm at such a young age. By then, we can say that we are disciples of some Holy Land or some Holy Sect when we go out!”
“It’s not that easy for a Saint to appear… It has been a long time since a Saint Realm expert appeared in the Dachu Empire.”
The word “Saint” was the dividing line between first-rate forces and second-rate forces.
For example, the Dashang Empire and the Dachu Empire were first-rate powers.
The Great Mystery Sect was only a second-rate force, and the most important reason was that there was no Saint Realm expert in the Great Mystery Sect!
While the two outer sect disciples were still discussing, Su Chen had already arrived at the back mountain of the Great Mystery Sect.
The moment he got close to the Great Mystery Sect, he sensed a very powerful aura.
Just as he had guessed, there were indeed experts at the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm in the Great Mystery Sect.
“Why can’t I find it?”
Su Chen stood on the ground and scanned the surrounding mountains with his divine sense. He frowned slightly.
This was already deep into the back mountain area.
The back mountain was usually where the Supreme Elders and some old fogeys would go into seclusion.
But now, he didn’t find anything special about this place.
He didn’t even see a ghost, let alone humans.
This seemed to be a barren mountain that had never been explored. There were no signs of the Great Mystery Sect seniors living in seclusion.
“What? What are you looking for? Do you need me to help you find it?”
At this moment.
An old voice sounded in Su Chen’s ears.
“Hmm?”
Hearing this, Su Chen frowned slightly and turned his head.
Only to see, not far behind him, a hunchbacked old man had appeared at some point.
He was very skinny, with a pipe in one hand and the other behind his back.
The originally loose robe was almost dragged to the ground.
At this moment, he was standing ten meters away from Su Chen. His muddy eyes were filled with satisfaction as he sized Su Chen up.
“Not bad, not bad… God bless our Great Mystery Sect! I never thought that one day, a prodigy with a divine body would appear in my sect!”
“Greetings, Supreme Elder! I’m Disciple Su Chen.”
Seeing the old man, although Su Chen was a little surprised, he did not panic. He calmly cupped his hands and bowed.
There was nothing special about this old man’s appearance.
However, the faint aura that he emitted reminded Su Chen that the old man in front of him was definitely a Quasi-Saint Realm expert!
“Your eyesight is much better than the other elders…”
The old man looked at Su Chen with a gratified expression.
Usually, he liked to wander around here when he had nothing to do.
However, apart from Su Chen, the other disciples all thought of him as a servant of the Great Mystery Sect. Even some young elders could not recognize him.
Only Su Chen.
After arriving here, he could tell his true identity at a glance.
“Did you come here to ask me to follow you to Dashang?”
The old man spoke with assurance.
Just as Su Chen was about to answer, the old man beat him to it and said, “Forget it, I’ll follow you! I don’t have much time left. Before my death, perhaps 1 can still display some final value. Although 1 cannot guarantee your safety, there is one thing I can assure you. As long as 1 live, nothing will happen to you!”
Elder Chen had already sent the news of what happened to Su Chen in Qingzhou to the Great Mystery Sect.
The old man was the Supreme Elder of the Grand Great Mystery Sect, so he naturally knew all of this.
After all, a prodigy with a divine body had been born in the Great Mystery Sect!
This was a very important matter, and everyone in the Great Mystery Sect took it very seriously.
As for why Su Chen was going to Dashang, the old man did not ask.
What he could do was to ensure that Su Chen would not die before he fully matured.
After saying that, the old man lifted his feet and walked into the mountain.
However, after taking just two steps, he turned back to look at Su Chen with a strange expression.
“Why aren’t you leaving yet? Do you still want to stay for dinner? Let me tell you, 1 don’t cook well and I’m almost out of ingredients. Don’t bother staying.”
“Uh…”
Su Chen stared blankly at the old man in front of him. After a moment of silence, he said, “Elder, you’ve misunderstood me. I did not come here to ask you to follow me to Dashang, nor did I want to stay for a meal.”
Su Chen was very touched by the old man’s words.
In this world, other than the Su family of Tianyang City, only the people from the Great Mystery Sect would be willing to follow him to the Dashang Empire without asking why.
After all, the Dashang Empire wasn’t a place where anyone could enter and leave as they pleased.
Even if an expert at the peak stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm stepped into Dashang’s territory, they would have no confidence in self-preservation.
“Oh?”
The old man turned around, knocking his pipe with one hand behind his back. He asked in surprise, “Then why are you looking for me?”
“To tell you the truth, I came here today to give you a treasure!”
Su Chen quickly said.
As his voice fell, a jade box appeared in his palm.
As the jade box was opened, a round scarlet pill came into view. It was very eye-catching.
However, there was no strange phenomenon. At a glance, it seemed to be an ordinary medicinal pill.
“This is… The Saint Breaking Pill?”
The old man carefully examined the medicinal pill and muttered in a low voice.
Two dazzling lights flashed in his originally muddy eyes.
He took two steps forward and stood in front of Su Chen. He stared at the pill carefully to confirm it.
Soon, a hint of confusion appeared in his eyes. With a puzzled expression, he muttered in a low voice,” This pill clearly contains the aura lineage of the Saint Breaking Pill, yet why is there no strange phenomenon or pill fragrance being emitted? Something’s wrong.. Something’s very wrong! Did I make a mistake? This isn’t a Saint Breaking Pill at all?”
