Origin Court: Accepting Disciples With A System

206 Sacred Region



It was so unimaginable to have someone create these lifelike people. Even Yang Lujia thought he could not construct such a complicated formation. He could decipher it and could make all these people disappear, but he could not possibly construct something like this one.

It had to be known that Yang Lujia considered himself very strong, but he never thought that the disparity between the strongest people in this world and him would be this large. He realized that he was just a child that had yet to grow up.

Yang Lujia then turned his gaze to the despairing City Lord, “Now, do you understand your plight now? You’re merely like a projection created by whoever came here to construct this array formation.”

“Milord… am I not really real…” The City Lord’s tone took a three-hundred-sixty-degree turn. He was looking at Yang Lujia as though he was pleading with the latter to save him.

However, to his dismay, Yang Lujia only shook his head. “My strength is so weak compared to that man. Moreover, it’s obvious that that man’s array formation’s accomplishments were simply God-like—given how he was able to create all of you here.”

Then, he turned around, looking in a certain direction. “It seems like you don’t know much about the Second Region either. Fortunately, my trip here had not been in vain as I was able to taste some good delicacies! It’s just a pity that the restaurant was already destroyed, lest I could have already monopolized it.”

Cai Hong stood behind Yang Lujia with only reverence evident in his eyes. He was looking at Yang Lujia for having been able to decipher an array formation as strong as this. Hence, it led him to the thought—how exactly powerful had His Highness become?

Yang Lujia then swiped his gaze back to the City Lord. “Get up. It’s not like there’s no saving you anymore. In fact, you weren’t just created out of thin air. It’s just that the souls that old man used on you had already become one with the array formation. Thus, when you force your way out from here, you would eventually meet your doom.”

“Milord…” The City Lord felt hopeful after hearing what Yang Lujia told him. He even forgot about his own daughter’s death and who caused her death. “Please spare me and this city, Milord! I implore you to save us! I will devote everything I have to you! We just want to experience freedom like others!”

The City Lord began kowtowing that it slightly moved Yang Lujia. However, his expression turned cold, and said, “No need. You have no use for me, anyway. You better stay put here. Besides, even if I know how to get you all out of here, I am not certain about what will happen to your lives.”

With that, Yang Lujia suddenly disappeared in front of the City Lord and the others. However, what was more surprising were the smiles of these people the moment Yang Lujia left the vicinity—even more so with the City Lord’s terrifying smile.

“I never would have expected that our tribe had stumbled upon such a genius who had the aura of the void. I don’t care who he is, but to be able to deceive him with the array formation, Lord Halberd is truly impressive!”

“Of course, Lord Halberd ought to be awesome!” the City Lord praised with a triumphant smile on his face. “Only—I don’t know if that brat had someone backing him up. With his talents, it would not be safe to say he would roam on his own.”

Meanwhile, Yang Lujia had a frown on his face. The Undying City seemed to have something more than what he had been shown. It went to show that when he went out, he was able to do so because of his formidable strength. Otherwise, he would have been stopped midway and would be trapped along with those people for a long time.

Cai Hong also noticed the quick changes in Yang Lujia’s expressions. “Your Highness, what’s wrong? Is there something you noticed that’s wrong?”

Yang Lujia, seeming to have woken up from his cautioned mode, shook his head and hurriedly left with Cai Hong from the place. Shortly after they left the place, the City Lord, who was supposed to have been unable to go out of the Undying City unbelievable, went out with someone beside her.

Who else could it be other than her?!

It was his own daughter! The very woman who had tried to harass Yang Lujia and Cai Hong!

If Yang Lujia thought he had already squashed him to mincemeat, then he would be severely mistaken. Yang Lujia’s intuition was right on the mark. There was something indeed wrong with the array formation and the Undying City.

How else could they have transported messages or information to other people just because they couldn’t get out? Surely, the rumor about the Undying City within the Third Regions wasn’t fake and the rumors about them were likely to be true. It only meant someone was protecting behind them—but Yang Lujia, even with his strength, was unable to ascertain the locations of these people.

Nevertheless, Yang Lujia decided to ignore them. At least they were not bent on killing him at the moment if they ever had wished to.

“Cai Hong, tell me about the information you got about the Second Region. Fill out the details and don’t leave a word behind.”

Cai Hong then excitedly walked up to Yang Lujia and told him about everything.

It turned out that although Second Region was not as mysterious as the Autonomous Region or the First Region, it could be said to be secretive as well—more like people who liked to keep their profiles low.

“Your Highness, the Second Region is otherwise known as the Sacred Region. It was where most of the cultivations would head because of their outstanding healing abilities. Moreover, I have learned that in every corner of the Second Region, there was some sort of trial that only he, the Holy Saint Emperor could exude.”

“He was that powerful in terms of healing abilities? But why would someone like him disregard his disciple like that?” Yang Lujia muttered out of nowhere.

“Your Highness, what do you mean?” Cai Hong felt skeptical.

“It’s a long story,” Yang Lujia replied as he sighed.

He then proceeded to tell what others had told him about the Holy Saint Palace. It was the palace where his supposed-to-be-fourth disciple, his fiancé.

It turned out that His Highness was setting his sights on a man that had become a cripple. However, Cai Hong did not voice out his questions that mind offends His Highness. Therefore, he chose to shut his mouth.

It was only then that Cai Hong continued to talk more about the Second Region. The more Yang Lujia listened to Cai Hong’s explanation, the more he found how a mystery was the Second Region. Nevertheless, Yang Lujia believed that she could easily trample the entire Second Region with her prowess.

“What about the Sacred Area you talked about earlier? Is there really something peculiar about it?”

“Your Highness, I’m afraid that my knowledge about Sacred Areas is limited to my incompetence. However, I will surely make—”

“No! Wait! Wait! Sacred Areas? You mean there are several of them in the Second Region? What could the Holy Light Emperor have thought when making these? Does he want to accumulate a strong power that could deter everyone else in their paths?”

“Yes, Your Highness. That seems to be the case.”

Yang Lujia just then merely nodded and looked in a certain direction. “Sacred Areas should be the most valuable treasure trove for those who could cultivate.”

Cai Hong also nodded in affirmation. He couldn’t help but think that the Second Region might be more than what it was—like the Third Region where he had once looked down. Until now, he was still regretting his actions.

“Indeed. Inside that Sacred Area, there would be such plenty of treasures. Each treasure they would acquire had either become heirlooms in their families or a treasured item by those churches.”

When Yang Lujia heard the word, “churches,” his interest was immediately picked. He pretty much had much an idea about the churches here. It would seem like they would not be any different—only that they had strong cultivation.

“What about the churches, Cai Hong? Can you tell me about them?” Yang Lujia tactfully asked.

Cai Hong then slightly bowed and looked at Yang Lujia with a proud face. “Of anyone you knew about, His Highness could be sure that I wasn’t the one who leaked anything. However, His Highness needs to know there are two big organizations within the Sacred Region. One can be considered as the church and the others being the subsidiary ones.”

“Oh?” Yang Lujia sounded interested in the matter.

“Your Highness, I don’t know what the realm of their main church was, but this church was said to be the mother of all the other churches in the Second Region, to which these little churches are Churches of Light.”
