Following the thunderous rumbling, two streams of Sword Qi collided and an earth-shattering power erupted. Countless cracks appeared on the battle platform in an instant, shrouding the place with smoke and dust that lingered for a long time.
Below the platform, everyone had been shocked out of their winds for a long time. The astonishing sword had widened their horizons. It took them quite some time to recover their senses and when they did, booming acclaim resounded.
Sweat was already dotting Second Elder's forehead and his breathing was quickening. That peerless technique was absolutely borne out of Three Pure Sect!
It took a long time but the smoke and dust that shrouded the platform finally dissipated. The crowd saw Xu Hao clasping his chest with one hand. Blood was flowing out of the corner of his mouth. The sword in his other hand had been snapped off.
Xiao Chen had also made his way back onto the platform. His face was deathly pale. He had exhauste
"Wait. Who said you can leave?" The boisterous atmosphere immediately became frozen after the cold voice resounded. Xiao Chen looked at the jade platform and said placidly, "I wonder what command you have for me, Elder?" The rest had also turned their stern gazes to First Elder. He looked grave and stern. His might was on full display despite not being angry. He said coolly, "Putting aside the origin of your swordsmanship, where did your Lv 7 Qi Refining Realm cultivation come from? Speak!" Everyone trembled while Second Elder frowned. Sure enough, what he was most worried about previously had finally come. Xiao Chen replied, "I trained hard and practiced diligently. Don't tell me that it's wrong?" Discussions sprang up among the crowd. They had neglected the most important issue in this whole affair. It had not been half a year since Xiao Chen entered the sect so logically, it was impossible for him to obtai
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. You were still able to strut in front of him just several months ago but all you can do is use tricks behind his back..." Mo Yu suddenly turned around after hearing the familiar voice. His eyes turned cold. "What are you here?!" "I'm here to check on a stray dog, of course." A figure materialized out of thin air and hovered several meters away from Mo Yu. The person was clothed in black and had his face covered, concealing his looks. Mo Yu clenched his fists so tightly that his bones creaked. "Who are you referring to...?" he asked in a terrifyingly gloomy voice. "You, of course. Don't you think that you're like a stray dog right now?" the masked man replied with a faint smile. "You seek death!" Mo Yu abruptly invoked the True Energy within his body and threw an explosive punch at the man. The whistling of wind resounded but just as his fist was about to hit the mask
"So, you came to the Three Pure Sect only to go to the Violet Manor?" Her voice was cold. Xiao Chen trembled and raised his head, only to find Bai Ying's cold eyes. "Sh*t. Have I said too much? She's an elder at the least..." Bai Ying smiled gently. "Relax. I'm just teasing you." Xiao Chen let out a sigh of relief. Bai Ying turned around and looked at a big tree that stood lonely outside the window. She said, "You want to go to the Violet Manor. Mo Yu also wants to go there. But only one of you can go." "Only one person can go?" "That's right. Seven years ago, the Sect Leader fought for this quota." Bai Ying turned and looked at him quietly, her face serious and solemn. "So, only one of you can go to the Violet Manor. If you lose the competition to him, I won't be able to help you then." "Would you mind telling me something more about sending disciples to the Violet M
It was already dusk when Xiao Chen returned to Sunset Peak with the books in his hands. As usual, Lil Ruo had already cooked a table of dishes for him. After dinner, Xiao Chen started to study the cultivation methods in his room. Having studied all night, Xiao Chen had to admit that the cultivation methods in this world were good in their own ways. For example, there were five elements in the Immortal's magic. The wood and water magic were mainly healing magic; the fire and metal magic were mainly attacking magic; the wood magic was mainly defensive magic. Except for the five elements, there were also wind magic, thunder magic, ice magic, etc. There was even dark magic which was mostly practiced by Devils' sects. However, to cultivators, the ultimate goal of practicing all these various cultivation methods was the same—to achieve immortality and become an Immortal King or Devil Lord. This goal was no different than that of thousands of years ago. Closing the boo
Xiao Chen immediately took over the historical record in her hand and looked at them carefully. This record regarding the history 1,000 years ago was written in common language. "A member of the Xiao Family colluded with the Devils and betrayed the Xiao Family, which made the Five Major Sects hunt him down. In the end, he and a miss from the Su Family went missing..." Xiao Chen's hands shook slightly while reading the words in a low voice. This was the historical record of 1,000 years ago when the Xiao Family in the Human World was established. Were there some connections? Li Muxue noticed that his face turned a bit pale and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Xiao Chen shook his head. Things were getting complicated when he knew that a miss from the Su Family was gone missing. It seemed that the Su Family was one of the Six Ancient Families in the Violet Manor. A thousand-year ancestral discipline of the Xiao Family forbade associations wit
After arriving at the Moon-watch Peak, Xiao Chen had almost searched the entire peak, including Bai Ying's cabin and the Moon-watch Pavilion, yet he did not find her. Finally, he asked a female disciple and was told that Bai Ying left three days ago. "Did she say when she would come back?" Xiao Chen asked anxiously. In the entire Three Pure Sect, only she could teach him. The reason he was not in a hurry before was that he thought he could ask her any time. However, she was now gone. "Uh... She did not." "Okay then..." The huge peak now seemed empty. Xiao Chen sighed, walked around for a bit, and reached the Moon-watch Pavilion at the Fullmoon Cliff. The Moon-watch Pavilion and the Rainbow Pavilion of the Xiao Family were of the same size. The difference between the two was that the Moon-watch Pavilion stood on the edge of the cliff with nothing around, making it look pretty scary. In front of the pavilion was a spacio
The Three Pure Sect had sent many disciples to the Violet Manor, yet none had ever come back. This time, that disciple's coming back stirred the Three Pure Sect. Five major elders went to greet her, and even Outer Disciples came to the Black Dragon Peak. This felt like a celebration. "I heard that Senior Sister Chu had come back? She must have reached the Core Forming Realm I guess." "Yeah. She also had brought her fiance here. I heard that he is the young master of the Yang Family, one of the ten major families in the Violet Manor." "Well, that's something!" People had crowded both sides of the square, waiting for her arrival. The five elders stood side by side at the entrance of the square. Except for Bai Ying, whose brow furrowed tightly, the other four elders were beaming. Xiao Chen stood beside her. He was the only disciple standing beside elders as if Bai Ying asked him to stand by her side. Soon after, un
"Who said that he will be the only one to be sent to the Violet Manor?" Inside and outside the hall, everyone's eyes fell on Bai Ying, who kept calm and composed. The First Elder immediately thundered, "Junior Sister! A few years ago, we've already decided to send him to the Violet Manor. You don't need to say anything now!" The Fourth Elder followed and said, "Yeah, Senior Sister. We should wait for the Sect Leader to come back and let him go fight for a name from the Daoist League of the Five Provinces. Then, we can send Xiao Chen to the Violet Manor seven years later. Xiao Chen's natural endowments and cultivation were far behind those of Mo Yu. Surely we should send Mo Yu to the Violet Manor this time." "Haha." Bai Ying smiled coldly and said, "Natural endowments and cultivation? Far behind Mo Yu? Time has not come yet, why are you so sure?" Chu Hanyan smiled and said, "Oh? Third Elder, wha
