Chapter 1287 - Mystical Gates Immortal Manor

“Even Immortal Platform realm figures are joining the fun; what’s left for us?”

Three figures, two men and one woman, swept toward Chen Fan.

One man was tall, the other short and chubby. The tall man, dressed in long sky-blue robes, was handsome and carried an impressive aura.

The chubby youth, on the other hand, wore long purplish-black robes and had an ordinary appearance.

The woman, fairly beautiful, kept stealing glances at the tall man, her eyes filled with flirtation.

Judging by their auras, they were all Greater Legends.

“That’s right. Plenty of sects once stood in the Bone Demon Wasteland, but most weren’t strong, especially those scattered along the edges. They’re just ordinary immortal sects. The deeper parts are where Immortal Platform realm figures should be headed,” said the chubby man in purplish-black robes

The tall and handsome man chuckled and said, “Word is, there might be remnants of an immortal sect in the western region. Those Immortal Platform realm figures will leave after verifying it.

“The peripheral sects in the Bone Demon Wasteland were weak. Even if they left behind some treasures, they aren’t tempting enough for the Immortal Platform realm figures.”

“Oh? Sun Hong, where did you hear that? Has anyone confirmed which sect it was?” The short and chubby man’s eyes immediately lit up. If that was the case, it was good news for them.

Immortal Platform realm figures might not be interested, but it was perfect for Legendary realm martial artists like them. It might even help them become Immortal Platform experts.

“If the info checks out, and the phenomenon’s position is accurate, then it’s most likely...”

Suddenly, the mountain beside them blew up. A voice echoed out.

Rumble!

“Please hold your steps!”

“Who is it?”

“Come out! Show yourself!”

Sun Hong’s trio jumped in fright at this sudden turn of events. The woman nearly stumbled into Sun Hong’s arms.

Swish.

A slender figure emerged from the rubble—Chen Fan.

The tall, handsome man, Sun Hong, narrowed his eyes as Chen Fan approached. He frowned and said coldly, “Who are you? Why did you scare us?”

The woman’s eyes landed on Chen Fan’s robe, and she quickly recognized it.

“

Eh

? You’re from the Featherlight Sect!”

The Featherlight Daoist Robe gave it away. As one of the ten great immortal holy lands of the Imperial Supremacy Heavenly Domain, the Featherlight Sect stood at the top of the Heavenly Realm, known far and wide.

“Hoho, my apologies. I was in secluded cultivation here and noticed you three approaching. I didn’t mean to scare you, but I overheard you talk of some remains,” said Chen Fan with a smile.

The trio raised their eyebrows. Sun Hong said in astonishment, “That rumor’s been spreading like wildfire through the Bone Demon Wasteland lately. You don’t know about it?”

Chen Fan rubbed the tip of his nose and said, “I’ve been in seclusion for more than half a month, so...”

“I see. The remains only appeared ten days ago. No wonder you are unaware. Ah, I haven’t asked your name yet, Daoist brother. The Featherlight Sect is a holy land of our Imperial Supremacy Heavenly Domain. Countless people wish to enter it to cultivate. That you made it in truly makes us envious,” said Sun Hong.

“You’re too polite. I am Chen Fan, and you are?”

The tall and handsome man introduced, “I am Sun Hong, this is Gao Qiu, and she is Li Ling. We’re all disciples of the Arcane Layer School.”

Chen Fan nodded. The Arcane Layer School was an immortal sect of the eastern Imperial Supremacy Heavenly Domain. Though respectable, it couldn’t compare to the Featherlight Sect. Its school master was an Immortal Emperor with some regional fame.

“I just came out of seclusion and heard you discussing. If I may ask, I’m rather interested in this matter, could you tell me about it in detail?” Chen Fan said with a smile.

“To meet is fate. Since Brother Chen is also interested in the remains, why don’t you join us in our journey, and we can slowly explain it to you on the way?” Sun Hong said, inviting him with a smile.

Although Chen Fan was only in the Greater Legendary realm, a newbie at that, he was still a disciple of the Featherlight Sect, after all. Traveling with him would give their group more weight.

When they reached the remains, others would be less likely to cause trouble, seeing Chen Fan’s affiliation.

Chen Fan accepted his invitation.

“Alright.”

He wasn’t very familiar with the Bone Demon Wasteland. Having someone lead the way was a welcome convenience.

“Brother Chen, based on the intel we gathered, the remains likely belong to an immortal sect. Judging by the location, it could be where the Mystical Gates Immortal Manor once stood,” Sun Hong said.

“Mystical Gates Immortal Manor?” Chen Fan looked puzzled.

He hadn’t been in the Heavenly Realm for long. Though his jade booklet contained some general information, it didn’t mention things like this.

The trio was somewhat doubtful.

“Brother Chen doesn’t know?”

As a disciple of the Featherlight Sect, even if he was only a low-class disciple, he should’ve at least heard of ancient sects like that. But from his expression, he clearly hadn’t.

Chen Fan appeared slightly embarrassed and explained, “I am indeed unaware. I have a humble background and only entered the Featherlight Sect by luck. As you probably know, the competition there is intense, so I’ve been focusing entirely on cultivating. I haven’t had the luxury to study these hidden matters.”

“I see.” The trio came to a realization. They nodded and said, “You don’t know about the Mystical Gates Immortal Sect, but surely you know how the Bone Demon Wasteland was formed?”

“That, I do know a bit about. It’s said that the demon clan from hell invaded long ago, and that’s how this land became what it is.”

“Correct. Back in the Ancient Heavenly Court era, the wasteland wasn’t like this. Many immortal sects stood here. They weren’t top-tier, but they were far from weak. Still, they were all destroyed in the end and faded into history. The Mystical Gates Immortal Manor was one of those sects.

“However, the Mystical Gates Immortal Manor was an immortal sect known for artifact refining. They didn’t have many experts in their sect, not even an Immortal King realm, but their refining techniques were top-tier. They crafted many powerful immortal artifacts.”

The trio shared more details with Chen Fan about the sect’s history and reputation.

“Oh, in that case, there must be quite a few immortal artifacts among the Mystical Gates Immortal Manor’s remains?” Chen Fan chuckled.

Sun Hong nodded and said, “That goes without saying. However, it is unclear how many of them are still usable. After all, the Ancient Heavenly Court was destroyed over a hundred million years ago. Even immortal artifacts can’t escape the wear of time.”

“Hoho, no matter what, we’ll find out when we go in and take a look. If we’re lucky enough to find one in good condition, it’ll be a huge score.” Chen Fan chuckled.
