Mu Qian's cultivation was now equal to Long Teng's, both at the Middle Stage of Nine Paths.
He clashed with Elder Wei, who was at the Peak of Nine Paths, and neither was yet bested, unable to discern a victor immediately. Along with other disciples of the Taiji Sect sneaking attacks from the side, even if Mu Qian wanted to break through, he couldn't manage a quick resolution.
Meanwhile, Long Teng had already barged into the dungeon and assessed the situation inside.
Du Jieyu had also recovered her senses, and upon seeing a man in Taiji Sect disciple robes walking in, she didn't pay much attention at first. She reached out with her uninjured hand, hoping the man would help her up. However, Long Teng's aura was overwhelming, making him feel an immense and incomparable power even in the darkness.
She glanced sideways quickly, then looked back at him, her eyes widening when she saw who it was, "Long Teng."
It was him, really him.
