The Immortal Emperor Reborn: Accompanying My Child on the Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 37: A New Journey

With a loud bang, the enemy leader was sent flying backwards by Yun Che's punch, falling heavily to the ground. Dust flew up, and the air around them seemed to freeze at that moment. Yun Che looked at the fallen enemy leader, and an indescribable complex emotion surged in his heart.

"You... who are you?" The enemy leader raised his head with difficulty, his eyes full of unwillingness and fear.

Yun Che sneered, slowly walked in front of him, and squatted down: "Me? I'm just a cultivator pursuing power. And you are just a stumbling block on my path of cultivation."

Blood was oozing from the corners of the enemy leader's mouth. His lips were trembling, and he seemed to want to say something, but in the end he couldn't say it and fainted.

Yun Che stood up and glanced around. At this moment, the battle was completely over. The enemy soldiers were either dead or wounded. The rest all knelt on the ground, trembling in surrender.

"Master, we won!" A sect disciple ran over excitedly, his face full of joy.

Yun Che nodded, but his face remained expressionless. He knew full well that this victory was only temporary. The road to cultivation was long and arduous, and he had to remain vigilant at all times to go further.

“Clean up the battlefield and prepare to return to the sect,” Yun Che ordered.

Everyone quickly sprang into action, clearing the battlefield and treating the wounded. Yun Che, on the other hand, walked aside alone, gazing at the distant sky, his mind consumed by a thousand thoughts.

“The road of cultivation is indeed full of unknowns and challenges.” Yun Che muttered to himself, “But no matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will not give up.”

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in Yun Che's sight. It was an old man in a black robe. His face was old, but his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he could see into people's hearts.

"You are quite good, Yun Che." The old man spoke slowly, his voice low and powerful. "It is truly rare to achieve such success at such a young age."

Yun Che was slightly stunned, then bowed and saluted: "Senior, thank you for your compliment. I wonder who you are and why you are here?"

The old man smiled slightly and said, "I am Xuanjizi, the Grand Elder of Xuantian Sect. I have come here on the orders of the Sect Master to invite you to join my Xuantian Sect."

"Xuantian Sect?" Yun Che's heart stirred. He knew that Xuantian Sect was one of the top sects in the world of cultivation, with great strength and profound heritage. But since he already had a sect, how could he join Xuantian Sect?

“Thank you for your kindness, Senior, but I am already a disciple of another sect, so I’m afraid I can’t…” Yun Che politely declined.

Xuanjizi seemed to have anticipated his words and shook his head, saying, "Yun Che, you don't need to worry. My Xuantian Sect has always been open to recruiting talents regardless of their background. As long as you are willing, we can help you solve all your problems."

Yun Che was silent for a moment, feeling a bit hesitant. He was well aware of the Xuantian Sect's strength, and joining them would undoubtedly make his journey on the path of cultivation smoother. But on the other hand, he didn't want to betray his own sect.

“Senior, please allow me to think this over.” Yun Che finally said.

Xuanjizi nodded, seemingly unsurprised by his answer. "That's fine, feel free to consider it. But I must remind you that the path of cultivation is long and difficult. One more choice means one more possibility."

After saying that, Xuanjizi's figure flashed and turned into a black light, disappearing on the spot.

Yun Che stared at the direction Xuanjizi had disappeared, his heart restless for a long time. He knew he had to make a decision, and this decision would determine his future.

……

After returning to the sect, Yun Che told the sect master and other elders about his encounter with Xuanjizi. After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

"Yun Che, this is your chance." The sect master spoke first, his eyes filled with anticipation. "The Xuantian Sect is a top-tier sect. If you can join it, you will definitely gain more resources and opportunities for cultivation."

“But, Sect Master…” Yun Che felt a little embarrassed. “I am already a disciple of the sect. How can I betray you so easily?”

The Sect Master smiled faintly and patted his shoulder: "Yun Che, you don't have to worry. Although you have been with our sect for a short time, we have all seen your contributions and strength. If you are willing to join the Xuantian Sect, we will not stop you, but will fully support you."

Yun Che felt a surge of warmth in his heart upon hearing this. He knew full well that his current achievements were inseparable from the sect's support and cultivation. But at this moment, he still felt a little hesitant.

“Sect Master, let me think about it again.” Yun Che said.

The Sect Master nodded and said nothing more. He knew that this was an important decision that Yun Che needed to make himself.

Over the next few days, Yun Che pondered this question. He constantly recalled every detail of his time in the sect, thinking of the brothers who had fought alongside him. At the same time, he also longed for the greater resources and training opportunities he would gain after joining the Xuantian Sect.

Finally, one night, Yun Che made a decision. He went to the Sect Master's room and told him his decision.

“Master, I have decided to join the Xuantian Sect.” Yun Che said.

Upon hearing this, the sect leader's face showed a hint of disappointment, but he quickly regained his composure. He nodded and said, "Okay, since you've made your decision, we fully support you. But you must remember, no matter where you are, you are the pride of our sect."

Yun Che nodded gratefully, feeling a bit guilty. He knew that his decision might disappoint the Sect Master and the other elders. But he also knew that the path of cultivation was long and difficult, and he needed more resources and opportunities to improve his strength.

……

A few days later, Yun Che successfully joined Xuantian Sect with the help of the sect. He became a disciple of Xuantian Sect and began a new cultivation career.

Xuantian Sect was indeed worthy of its reputation. The cultivation resources here were extremely rich, with all kinds of precious elixirs, magic weapons, and secret manuals. Yun Che was given unprecedented opportunities to cultivate here, and his cultivation level was also rapidly improving.

However, the path of cultivation is not always smooth. Yun Che encountered numerous challenges and difficulties within the Xuantian Sect. Sometimes, he had to face provocations and fights from other disciples; sometimes, he had to complete dangerous missions and trials. But no matter what difficulties he encountered, Yun Che never gave up. With his unwavering will and unremitting efforts, he overcame difficulties time and time again, and improved his strength.

During his time in Xuantian Sect, Yun Che made many like-minded friends. They cultivated together, fought together, and explored the mysteries of the world of cultivation. With the help of these friends, Yun Che not only improved his strength but also broadened his horizons and knowledge.

However, Yun Che did not forget his original intention. He knew that his purpose in joining the Xuantian Sect was to pursue a higher realm and greater strength. Therefore, he always maintained a humble and low-key attitude, constantly learning and improving.

……

In the blink of an eye, several years passed. Yun Che's performance in the Xuantian Sect became increasingly outstanding, and his cultivation had reached a whole new level. He was no longer the young man who had just started out, but a powerful cultivator.

On this day, Yun Che received an important mission. He needed to travel to a mysterious ruin to search for a legendary treasure. This treasure was said to possess magical powers that could help people break through bottlenecks and improve their cultivation.

Yun Che was fully aware of the importance of this mission, and he immediately began to prepare. He carefully selected some precious medicinal pills and magical treasures, and also found a few powerful friends to accompany him.

After several days of traveling, Yun Che and his group finally arrived at the entrance of the ruins. They saw a vast desert ahead, and in the center stood an ancient stone tablet. Engraved with mysterious runes and patterns, it emitted a faint fluorescent light.

“Is this the entrance to the ruins?” Yun Che looked at the stone tablet, feeling an inexplicable excitement welling up in his heart.

"Yes, this is the entrance to the ruins." A friend beside him nodded. "However, it is said that there are powerful mechanisms and traps here, so we must proceed with caution."

Yun Che nodded, signaling everyone to get ready. He cautiously approached the stone tablet, carefully examining the runes and patterns on it. After some research, he finally found the clue to unlocking the ruins.

Yun Che formed seals with his hands and muttered something. As his incantation rang out, the runes on the stone tablet began to flicker, and a beam of light shot out from the stone tablet, pointing straight to the sky.

“Hurry! The ruins are about to open!” Yun Che shouted, leading everyone into the light.

After the light dissipated, Yun Che and his companions found themselves in a mysterious space. This space was filled with an ancient aura and mysterious power. They moved forward cautiously, fearing that they would trigger some mechanism.

After some exploration, they finally arrived at the core area of ​​the ruins. They saw a huge altar in front of them, and on the altar was a treasure emitting dazzling light.

“Is this the legendary treasure?” Yun Che looked at the treasure, a strong desire welling up in his heart.

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them. It was an old man in a black robe, with an aged face but an extremely sharp gaze.

"You've finally arrived," the old man said coldly, "This treasure is a sacred object of our clan. How could I let you take it away so easily?"

Yun Che's heart tightened when he heard this. He knew that this old man was no pushover and that he had to be careful in dealing with him.

“Senior, we don’t mean to offend you. It’s just that this treasure is extremely important to us, and we hope that you can help us.” Yun Che bowed and saluted.

The old man snorted coldly and said, "I'll grant you my blessing? Don't even think about it! Today, if you don't hand over the treasure, you won't be able to leave here!"

After saying this, the old man flashed and attacked Yun Che and the others. Seeing this, Yun Che and the others immediately launched a counterattack. A fierce battle broke out in the ruins.

During the battle, Yun Che fully demonstrated his strength and wisdom. With his exquisite agility and powerful attack power, he repeatedly neutralized the old man's attacks. At the same time, he also utilized the cooperation and assistance of his friends, gradually gaining the upper hand.

However, the old man was no pushover. Relying on his profound cultivation and rich combat experience, he struck back again and again. The two sides exchanged blows, each bringing the fight to a close.

At this moment, Yun Che suddenly came up with a plan. He pretended to be hit by the old man and flew backwards. Seeing this, the old man was overjoyed and immediately chased after him. However, at this moment, Yun Che suddenly turned and punched the old man.

This punch condensed all of Yun Che's strength and wisdom, and its power was astonishing. The old man had never expected Yun Che to have such a move, and was knocked back by the punch, falling heavily to the ground.

Yun Che took the opportunity to rush forward and grabbed the treasure on the altar. However, at this moment, the old man suddenly got up from the ground and pounced towards Yun Che.
