C1354 The Three Gates and the Gatekeeper

Halfway through his explanation to Zhou Jian, Fang Chen was interrupted by a sarcastic remark.    

    

Zhou Jian furrowed his brows. Through Jiang Feng and Fang Chenqing's shoulders, he looked towards the path that they had to take to get up the mountain.    

    

"It's the people from the Three Great Gates."    

    

He pulled Jiang Feng and Fang Chenqing to his side and confronted the group of uninvited guests.    

    

"Three great sects?"    

    

Jiang Feng was a little puzzled. He looked at Zhou Jian and wanted to ask for an answer. He had never heard Zhou Ju mention that there were three great gates in Impermanence Castle.    

    

Zhou Jian did not explain to him. Instead, Fang Chenqin leaned close to Jiang Feng's ear and whispered to him. "The major halls of the Impermanence Castle are the forces that the Impermanence Castle shows on the surface. The 'three great gates' are the true forces that the Impermanence Castle hides and are not known by outsiders."    

    

"No wonder. I've said that the Castle of Eternity is an ancient martial arts sect that has been passed down for thousands of years. Why is its strength so great on paper? Only Zhou Jian's strength can make me look at it. So it turns out that the 'Three Great Gates' are still hidden.    

    

Fang Chen Qing continued, "These three Gates are respectively the Divine Flame Sect, the Rushing Thunder Sect, and the Heaven's Secrets Sect. Although there aren't many disciples in these three Gates, From the looks of it, they are all elites. It must be the gathering of the five great geniuses of the Three Gates."    

    

While Fang Chenqin was speaking to Jiang Feng, Zhou Jian had already gone up to greet the leader of the three sects.    

    

Although the World Cloud Hall and the three sects were both from the Impermanence Castle, they didn't seem to have any intention of cooperating. Instead, after greeting each other and exchanging some pleasantries, they distanced themselves from each other, preparing to fight for the Lord's jade ring.    

    

After Zhou Jian greeted them, he walked over and explained to Jiang Feng and Jiang Feng that the Lord's jade ring was hidden in a cave on the mountain peak, the cave that they were currently facing less than a hundred meters away from them.    

    

At first glance, the cave did not look special, but since all the forces were confronting each other and no one wanted to step into it, it meant that there must be some unknown danger in the cave.    

    

After half an hour of silent confrontation, finally, someone could not hold their breath anymore. His body shot up and rushed towards the pitch-black cave.    

    

"This is the leader of the Divine Flame Sect, Quande. This person is extremely skilled..."    

    

Fang Chen leaned towards Jiang Feng and introduced him. However, just as he said this, he saw the leader of the Divine Fire Sect, Liang De, fly out from where he rushed in. His entire body smashed into the ground outside the cave like a cannonball, shaking the ground that was dyed red with dust.    

    

"It's the 'gatekeeper'!"    

    

Liang De was supported back to the camp by his own Divine Fire Sect disciples. He panted as he explained to everyone present.    

    

The gatekeeper? Was the jade ring of the Castle Lord Contest this time guarded by a phantom image of Sot Old Master? This was going to be troublesome!    

    

Hearing Quande's answer, the people of Sot Castle were all shocked. As members of Sot Castle, they naturally knew of a phantom image of their own Sot Old Ancestor. How powerful was his combat strength? And to obtain the Lord's jade ring from his guards... Obviously, it was extremely difficult, so no one dared to step into the cave as easily as Quande from the Divine Flame Sect.    

    

Although Jiang Feng did not know what the "gatekeeper" meant, he could tell from their solemn expressions that Jiang Feng did not want to act rashly.    

    

Just as the scene was about to fall into an awkward situation, the gatekeeper took the initiative to walk out of the cave. His pair of deep and turbid eyes looked at everyone present.    

    

"Is the younger generation of my Sot Fort actually this weak now?"    

    

The gatekeeper wore a dark blue silk sweater, and there was an ink-black ribbon tied around his waist. His entire body emitted a piercingly cold air, as if his soul was wrapped in thick snow.    

    

"It's not the phantom of Sot Old Master!"    

    

The leader of the Divine Fire Sect, Liang De, said. He was the oldest among the people present, and he was already sixty years old. Naturally, he had stepped into the secret area of the castle to pay his respects to Sot Old Ancestor.    

    

"This aura of inner energy that makes one's soul tremble must be the second Castle Lord of Sot Castle, 'Ling Han'."    

    

The leader of the Heaven's Secrets Sect recognized this gatekeeper and spoke slowly.    

    

Seeing Jiang Feng getting more and more confused, Fang Chequan, who was beside him, continued to explain the situation to him.    

    

This gatekeeper should be the phantom of the second Castle Lord of Impermanence Castle, 'Ling Han', and the person who recognized him was the only female leader of the three great sects, Yu Lingli.    

    

"Ling Han" The phantom of the Lord of Sot Castle sighed at the fact that his junior's strength wasn't enough, and then tried to persuade everyone to leave this place. He didn't think that he could become the Lord of Sot Castle with his strength alone.    

    

After being left behind by their old Lord, the faces of the people of the Castle of Impermanence naturally burned. No one dared to look directly into the deep gaze of this old ancestor.    

    

After all, the master of "Spirit Cold" was the closest to becoming a Martial Immortal among all the previous castle masters of Sot Castle after Sot Old Ancestor. Even though his body had long since turned gray and his merit had long since returned to nature, his dignity was still something that the descendants of Sot Castle were powerless to provoke.    

    

The people from the three gates immediately lost the courage to enter the cave and seize the Castle Lord's jade ring. Everyone knew that as long as the shadow of the Spirit Cold Castle Lord was here, no one would be able to enter the cave to search for the jade ring.    

    

But if they didn't obtain the Lord's jade ring, they wouldn't be able to reach the top of the Impermanence Peak and obtain the Lord's inheritance, becoming the new Everlasting Fort Lord!    

    

Zhou Jian, who was determined to obtain the Lord's position, couldn't hold back any longer. He could only brace himself and persuade everyone, "Right now, 'Spirit Cold' Lord only has a shadow left. As long as we can win the challenge, we should be able to enter the cave."    

    

"Moreover, the previous Lord of the Castle was facing the shadow of Sot Old Ancestor when he seized the Lord's jade ring. How come we juniors don't even dare to challenge the shadow of the Spirit Cold Fort Lord?"    

    

Hearing this, everyone felt ashamed. At this moment, the phantom of the Spirit Cold Castle Lord, who was guarding the entrance of the cave, nodded slightly in approval to Zhou Jian. Then, he said to everyone, "Although your generation's strength is a bit of a disgrace to our Sot Castle, if you have the courage to challenge me, you can be considered to have a good heart."    

    

"However." The Spirit Frost Fort Lord's shadow changed the topic. "The battles between me and the younger generation have always been evenly matched..."    

    

The Spirit Cold Castle Lord paused for a moment. His deep eyes revealed a hint of a smile.    

    

"Only life and death can be determined!"    

    

What a good outcome! Only life and death will be decided!    

    

"Of course, looking at this Mystic Sun Disciple's temper, I'll make an exception and leave the first person who challenges me with a life."    

    

Ling Han pointed at Zhou Jian, who he called Mystic Sun Disciple, and said to the people of Impermanence Castle.    

    

While Zhou Jian knelt on the ground respectfully when he heard that. It was unknown whether it was because Ling Han called him a Mystic Sun Disciple that he felt overwhelmed by favor, or whether it was for the sake of avoiding Ling Han calling him forward and pretending to be like this.    

    

"Ning Yi, this is a great opportunity to increase your martial arts skills. Hurry up and attack!"    

    

"Ah?"
