Chapter 224: Sword Sect Arrangement
Chapter 224: Sword Sect Arrangement
The Water Bloom Islands are like a string of emerald green gems scattered across the sea, and majestic mountains rise from the sky like sharp swords.
When many great monks who had established their foundation landed on this island, they saw numerous buildings and towering pavilions, forming a market for cultivating immortals, which was extremely bustling.
This is the market town opened up by the Shuihua Sword Sect itself. It is bustling with people coming and going. It is located on a third-level spiritual vein and has the support of the entire sect. You can imagine how prosperous it is.
Li Quanqing and the other person were arranged to stay in a high-level cave residence officially opened up by the Sword Sect, and guys from other foundation-building forces had already arrived.
In addition to the four major families, there are also some sect forces that are also affiliated with the Sword Sect and act as minions.
Li Quanqing scanned the area with his spiritual sense and immediately realized that he was already the cultivator with the highest cultivation level among those present, and he received many respectful looks from them.
"Brother Dao, it's been a long time since we last met. Would you mind coming in?"
A female cultivator in red came up to him, talking and laughing. Although her temperament was as cold as the moon, she still smiled at him.
"Fellow Daoist Hongyue, congratulations on your successful foundation building. There is hope for your great path!"
Li Quanqing's words were also polite and not very distant.
The person in front of him was none other than Xie Hongyue, the seed cultivator of the Xie family whom he had met before. Now he had successfully broken through to the foundation-building stage and was able to stand on his own.
"Fellow Daoist Quanqing, this time, we, the noble families, need you to take charge of the situation!"
Another young cultivator came and joined this small circle, his body filled with the fragrance of elixirs. He was none other than the little elixir king of the Wang family—Wang Guhe.
In addition to them, the Yun family of Xiaoyao Island also sent out a young foundation-building cultivator, who was none other than Xiaoyaozi. He was dressed in white, had an elegant temperament, and looked very young.
The four major families divided up the inheritance left by the Situ family, and their strength naturally increased a lot. After more than ten years, each of the younger generations had young foundation-building cultivators born.
The same was true for Li Quanmo who was standing next to him. He was not very old, only about 40 years old, and his cultivation was at the initial stage of foundation building.
Only Li Quanqing made a breakthrough very early and his cultivation speed was extremely fast. Now he is in the late stage of foundation building and can look down on his former peers.
"The Li family has two more foundation-building cultivators born this time. This is truly enviable. This is the true style of a first-class family!"
Wang Guhe was wearing an alchemist's robe, his words were amazed, his eyes were full of envy.
The Wang family of their Tonghua Island has always been weak and poor, and now there are only two great monks in charge, so they can only hold on to this thick thigh tightly.
Xiaoyaozi of the Yun family nodded in the same way. Although he might feel a little unwilling in his heart, he had to face the reality.
Among the four major foundation-building families today, the Qingyu Li family is undoubtedly the leader.
"I heard that... the Sword Sect is planning to support two new foundation-building families, which will be developed from the families of disciples within the sect..."
Xie Hongyue's eyes flickered, her red lips slightly opened, and she suddenly spoke out a widely circulated piece of news.
"Our territory is so small, and we have so many resources. How can we share the spiritual stones with others? The four of us must advance and retreat together, and we cannot give up even the slightest profit!"
Xiaoyaozi snorted and spoke in a low voice with a decisive tone.
Li Quanqing listened quietly and didn't say much, but agreed to the idea of a joint alliance.
After the demise of the Situ family, the aristocratic family became the only one in power, and their influence and territory increased significantly. This obviously caused some people in the Sword Sect to feel a sense of crisis.
Fortunately, he now has many cards in his hands and is in a safe position as long as he does not completely break off relations with the Shuihua Sword Sect.
Then there is nothing to be afraid of.
The group stayed in the cave for three days, and when all the forces had gathered, they were summoned by the Sword Sect's Golden Core Master. Out of respect for the strong, all the foundation-building cultivators were not allowed to walk in the air, but could only walk step by step along the road to the Golden Core Hall.
The highest peak in the Shuihua Islands is called Wanjian Peak, which looks like a fairy sword piercing the sky. It is shrouded in clouds and mist, and the mountain road is steep.
Li Quanqing and the others climbed up step by step, and saw sharp swords scattered everywhere on the steep cliffs. Thousands of swords were standing out, mighty and intimidating.
At the end of the mountain, there is a magnificent palace, which is glowing with brilliant rays of light. Every brick and tile exudes an ancient and sacred aura, and an indescribable pressure is overwhelming.
Looking down, you can see countless seas of clouds rolling endlessly, almost boiling, and you feel like you are overlooking the entire world.
"My fellow Taoists, please follow me into the ancestral temple and pay respect to the Immortal Master. Do not make any noise."
The leader of the Sword Sect was standing there, followed by several Taoist children. They had white hair and beards and were dressed like immortals.
Li Quanqing walked into the hall and saw array patterns and spiritual lights interweaving and suppressing the void. It was as if he had walked into the palace of God and felt his own insignificance.
Obviously, this place is full of extremely powerful restrictions, which are definitely third-level, and were left by the successive Jindan ancestors of the Sword Sect.
Li Quanqing looked up and finally saw the legendary Nine Swords Master.
I saw a dignified middle-aged man sitting cross-legged in the air, wearing a tall hat and a wide belt. Behind him were nine flying swords suspended in the air, of different colors, like a peacock spreading its tail.
It seems that this person is very difficult to mess with. He has the paranoia of a sword cultivator, is stubborn and always puts the interests of the sect first.
"We are waiting to see the real person!"
Li Quanqing followed the crowd and bowed slightly. Suddenly, he keenly felt a gaze falling on him, as heavy as a mountain.
His cultivation was the highest among the cultivators present, and was so conspicuous that he directly attracted the attention of True Man Jiujian.
Inside Li Quanqing's Niwan Palace, his sea of consciousness was surging. The little spiritual being was sitting cross-legged there, his whole body tense, carefully comprehending the difference in their cultivation levels.
Not surprisingly, the gap between them is not very large and is by no means insurmountable like a chasm.
It's a bit like the difference between a pond and a small lake.
Li Quanqing had not seen many Jindan creatures, including True Man Shuihua, two True Men of Yanyue Sect, Hanchi Demon King of Xiancheng, and the Mishen Butterfly that was killed just after a breakthrough.
Of course, perhaps we also have to add the remnant of the Ice Phoenix contained in that ice feather, which means he is only one step away from the fourth-level Nascent Soul.
In comparison, the Nine Swords Master was undoubtedly the weakest among them, even slightly inferior to the Godly Butterfly that had just broken through.
"As expected... Taiyuan Turtle Ancestor's demon pill is defective. The cultivator who uses it to refine a fake pill will naturally not be that strong..."
Li Quanqing felt relieved when he noticed that the gaze was leaving him.
However, the fake pill is still a pill after all, and it is far superior to ordinary foundation-building cultivators. If nothing unexpected happens, it can at least ensure that the Sword Sect will continue to be passed down for hundreds of years.
Perhaps during this period of time, the disciples of Shuihua Sword Sect will be able to perform well and a true Jindan master will emerge?
"I'm sure you all know why I summoned you here. The remnants of the Situ family are so arrogant and bold that they dared to..."
Master Jiujian closed his eyes slightly and spoke slowly. His voice was not loud, but it echoed in the hall like thunder and exploded in his ears.
