"It doesn't matter. Since it's just a year, I'll wait for you. I can use this time to strengthen my cultivation base as well. However, you're the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, and I'm in your territory now. You must get me a good place to cultivate, okay?!" Gu Li joked when he reached the end of his sentence as he nodded.
Swish!
Almost at the instant when Gu Li's words left his mouth, the sound of wind whistling in the air sounded suddenly as an item materialized and charged toward Gu Li. However, the speed of the item charging toward him was nothing.
With a raise of his hand, Gu Li caught the item. He squinted to look at it and discovered it was a light Order Token that seemed to be made of wood but not quite at the same time. The number 'nine' was carved on it. When he turned the Order Token around, he could see it was carved with stone platforms that were floating in the air. Each of the stone platforms had a standalone stone house.
Three tiny words were carved at the bottom right of the drawing — Azure Cloud Platform!
"This is the key to t-the Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine?" Gu Li gasped as though he had just remembered something.
The Azure Cloud Platform was a very good cultivation place in the Azure Cloud Mansion. The Spirit Gathering Formation inside was even directly linked to the quasi third-grade Saint Stone reserve in the Azure Cloud Mansion!
Usually, only outstanding disciples in the Azure Cloud Mansion would be allowed to enter the Azure Cloud Platform to cultivate. This was because one had to be strong to enter the Azure Cloud Platform to cultivate!
There was a total of 81 Azure Cloud Platforms, and it was said that they were suspended above the Main Mansion of Azure Cloud Mansion. Apart from that, they were divided into various ranks as well.
There was a total of nine Azure Cloud Platforms at the highest place. They were positioned in a circle and were named Azure Cloud Platform Number One, Azure Cloud Platform Number Two, Azure Cloud Platform Number Three… until the Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine!
It was said that these nine Azure Cloud Platforms had a cultivation environment that was in no way inferior to the cultivation place of the high-ranking officials in the Azure Cloud Mansion.
The key to the Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine was now in Gu Li's hand. Only those in possession of a key could enter and cultivate there.
Below the nine Azure Cloud Platforms that were positioned in a circle were more Azure Cloud Platforms that were positioned in a circle. There was a total of 18 of them.
The cultivation environment of these 18 Azure Cloud Platforms was slightly inferior to the nine platforms above them.
Below these 18 platforms, more Azure Cloud Platforms were positioned in a circle as well. There was a total of 54 platforms and the cultivation environment was inferior to the two circles of platforms above it. However, it was not like the cultivation environment was bad, they were still much better than the normal places where Azure Cloud Mansion's disciples usually cultivated.
Since the 81 Azure Cloud Platforms had such a good cultivation environment. It was only natural that many disciples wanted to enter and cultivate there. However, those who wished to enter the Azure Cloud Platform to cultivate must be strong.
If someone weak occupied one of the Azure Cloud Platforms for the time being, sooner or later it would be snatched away by a stronger person.
"As expected from the son of Guardian Gu from the Mystical Sky Mansion. To think you even know about our Azure Cloud Mansion's Azure Cloud Platform. This is indeed the key to Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine. I've already told the elder in charge of the Azure Cloud Platform that you'll be entering Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine to cultivate. Our Azure Cloud Mansion's disciples won't compete for Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine with you so you can cultivate with ease!" A voice suddenly sounded as a figure appeared like a ghost in the middle of the Central Main Hall.
The person who came was none other than Duan Ru Feng, the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion! He was the one who had given the key to Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine to Gu Li!
"Father!" Duan Ling Tian felt a sense of warmth when he saw how Duan Ru Feng had arranged everything for him
"Greetings, Mansion Master Duan!" Gu Li bowed at Duan Ru Feng as soon as he regained his senses.
"I heard from Tian'er that you and your father have taken good care of him when he was in the Mystical Sky Mansion. I, Duan Ru Feng, won't forget this kindness!" Duan Ru Feng nodded his head toward Gu Li and smiled. "However, since you're Tian'er's friend, and he addresses your father as Uncle Gu, you can also just address me as Uncle Duan. There's no need to be so polite and address me as Mansion Master Duan!"
"Yes, Uncle Duan!" Gu Li did not object to this and immediately changed his way of addressing Duan Ru Feng.
However, in the next instant, Gu Li returned the key to Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine to Duan Ru Feng.
Duan Ru Feng was puzzled as he looked at Gu Li. Gu Li quickly said, "Uncle Duan, I've long heard that the Azure Cloud Platforms in the Azure Cloud Mansion is the best benchmark to test one's strength! For this reason, I'd like to compete for the best Azure Cloud Platform as an Azure Cloud Mansion's disciple for this time instead of just getting a free pass!"
Gu Li's had always had a straight character. He felt uncomfortable that he was given special privileges without doing anything to earn it.
He might as well rely on his strength and forge a path for himself!
There was a hint of praise in Duan Ru Feng's eyes when he heard Gu Li's words. Without saying anything, he put away the key to Azure Cloud Platform Nine Platform.
"Since this is what you want, I'll agree to it. However, I must remind you that without this key to Azure Cloud Platform Number Nine, there would be difficult levels for you to go through if you want to enter the top nine Azure Cloud Platforms to cultivate. In our Azure Cloud Mansion, due to the existence of the Black Armored Army, many disciples at the Divine Saint Stage and above aren't willing to become ordinary elders since they all want to compete for the position of a Centurion in the Black Armored Army. This is because once they become an ordinary elder, they won't be able to enter the Black Armored Army! Do you understand what I'm trying to say?" Duan Ru Feng asked when he reached the end of his sentence.
"I understand, Uncle Duan." Gu Li nodded.
As for Duan Ling Tian who had already returned to the Azure Cloud Mansion for quite some time, he obviously knew what his father was trying to say.
Due to the rules in Azure Cloud Mansion that dictated elders were not allowed to enter the Black Armored Army, many Azure Cloud Mansion's disciples who were at the Divine Saint Stage and above were not willing to become the Azure Cloud Mansion's elders.
For this reason, they were willing to discard the top-tier cultivation environment they could obtain and sit by idly and choose the Azure Cloud Platforms, a much riskier place, instead.
Each of the Azure Cloud Mansion's elder had their own cultivation place and the cultivation atmosphere was comparable to the nine best Azure Cloud Platforms!
For this reason, there were many disciples at the Divine Saint Stage and above, other than the group of Eminent Saint Stage disciples, competing for the Azure Cloud Platforms, At the very least, the top nine Azure Cloud Platforms were usually occupied by the Azure Cloud Mansion's disciples at the Divine Saint Stage.
According to Gu Li's words, he wanted to make his way up in the Azure Cloud Platforms and snatch the best cultivation place using his own strength!
Perhaps, he might even gain something during this process. It was definitely not something he would gain if he had sat idly and just accepted what was given to him.
Duan Ru Feng respected Gu Li's decision, it was only natural Duan Ling Tian respected it as well.
"Senior Brother Gu Li, all the best to you then. I'll come and visit when I'm free!" Duan Ling Tian looked at Gu Li and smiled.
"Why? You don't want to make your way up into the Azure Cloud Platforms, Junior Brother Ling Tian?" Gu Li asked with a smile.
"With my current cultivation base, it's completely impossible for me to get one of the top nine Azure Cloud Platforms. Not only that, but my time is limited during this time." Duan Ling Tian shook his head.
If he did not use the Jasper Celestial Sword, it would be extremely difficult for him to defeat the Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples at the Divine Saint Stage and above.
If he went to the Azure Cloud Platform, he could not use the Jasper Celestial Sword at all! There would definitely be bloodshed every time he wielded the Jasper Celestial Sword!
Those who cultivated on the Azure Cloud Platforms were all Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples. They were his people, naturally, he would not use the Jasper Celestial Sword against them.
Ten months were not a long time, Duan Ling Tian had to have the best cultivation atmosphere. He did not have time to fight his way up in the Azure Cloud Platforms. Moreover, he wanted to enter the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda to cultivate so he must have an absolutely tranquil and undisturbed cultivation place.
As the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, his father easily provided him with such a place.
Due to all these reasons, he did not plan to cultivate on the Azure Cloud Platform.
Perhaps, he might go in the future. However, that would have to wait until he had fulfilled the five-year pact.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, did you encounter some problems?" Gu Li knew Duan Ling Tian was not afraid of trouble. Therefore, when he heard Duan Ling Tian's words, he instantly sensed a hint of danger.
Upon hearing Gu Li's words, Duan Ling Tian glanced at Duan Ru Feng as though asking for his permission.
Duan Ru Feng nodded his head.
"Senior Brother Gu Li…" Duan Ling Tian began to tell Gu Li about the five-year pact between him and Di Jue from the dragon clan.
"Di Jue? That Five-clawed Golden Dragon from the dragon clan?!" Horror dawned on Gu Li's face when he heard Duan Ling Tian's words. His eyes were wide as he quickly said, "No, you can't go, Junior Brother Ling Tian! It's too dangerous!" Currently, Gu Li was beside himself with worry. It was as though he was the one who would be facing danger soon.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Gu Li. There are ten months left. I have faith in myself." Duan Ling Tian smiled.
"What faith are you talking about?" Gu Li remained unconvinced even when he heard Duan Ling Tian's words. "Di Jue is the Five-clawed Golden Dragon from the dragon clan's Imperial Family. Although he's not in his prime yet, his strength is comparable to some of those weaker Five-clawed Divine Dragon elders. Moreover, you even said so yourself… He was at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage five years ago! Now that five years have gone by, he might've entered the Exemplary Saint Stage! Even if we take a step back and say that he hasn't entered the Exemplary Saint Stage, he's still at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage! He's not someone you can fight with! Although you have the Devilseal Tablet, it can only deal with Devil Cultivators. Di Jue the Five-clawed Golden Dragon is definitely not a Devil Cultivator!" Gu Li said with fear on his face, "For this reason, it's okay even if you don't fulfill this five-year pact, Junior Brother Ling Tian! Nobody would say you're a coward even if news of this spread out. After all, when he made a name for himself in this world, you weren't even born yet!"
"Senior Brother Gu Li, there's no need for you to dissuade me from going." Duan Ling Tian shook his head. "I've already made up my mind regarding this matter. Don't worry, I won't gamble with my life. Moreover, you've known me for quite some time. Do you think I'm the kind of person who would look for trouble for myself?" Duan Ling Tian asked with a smile when he reached the end of his sentence.
Gu Li was stunned. Now that he thought about it, ever since he met his junior brother, he was indeed someone who would not go looking for trouble.
One example was the Death Duel that took place outside of the Heaven Palace's Hall of Death where Junior Brother Ling Tian had overpowered Zhao Kun, a Zhao Clan's disciple, and killed him in a domineering manner when everyone looked down on him.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, it's different this time…" Gu Li smiled wryly. "Your opponent this time is not Zhao Kun but Di Jue!"
