Cultivation World 46 Offense

Pass through the main gate of Tianlang Immortal Sect and step onto the cloud steps.

From a distance, the main hall stands majestically, with green jade and colored glaze, and auspicious clouds swirling around it, giving it a fairyland-like atmosphere.

Xie Yunsui's eyes swept over the hundred-year-old spiritual flowers and herbs that were blooming on both sides, and he sighed inwardly that Tianlang had invested a lot of money in his master. If someone accidentally picked one or two of them, the managers of the spiritual plant garden would cry to death, right?

He really wanted to pinch her.

It was Ling Xiyuan's first time attending such a banquet, so he felt a little lacking in confidence. Fortunately, he had been a leading disciple several times before, so he remained calm and did not show any fear.

He followed behind Yin Hongxue, pulling Xie Yunsui from time to time, and slowly walked up the cloud steps.

The disciple in front of them smiled and verified their identity jade cards: "Thank you, Senior Yin and Senior Ling, for your presence. It is a great honor. Please take a seat."

Xie Yunsui watched the young disciple in the Qi Refining Stage greet him gracefully, and then he understood what Senior Brother Tao meant by the speechless expression when he said he would help greet the guests.

Those with lower cultivation levels come here and call everyone they meet senior, as it sounds nice.

Soon, people from all sects and schools arrived and took their seats in the square in front of the temple.

The banquet only had spiritual fruits and spiritual wine, which was very elegant, but no one had much appetite and no one was there to eat, so they just greeted each other in low voices, and exchanged some cultivation experiences in a very harmonious manner.

Hengwu Pavilion was not among the invited guests and did not have a separate seat, so Yin Hongxue invited him to sit aside, and Xie Yunsui sat down as well.

Turning around, they saw that the Bixiao Sect was next door. Their old acquaintance Liu Binhong was sitting upright. He was slightly surprised to see Xie Yunsui and Ling Xiyuan, and then nodded as a greeting.

As for the disciple of Qingyan Sect opposite, who I had just dealt with, he was the first one in front of the seat with a stern look. Just sitting there, I had the illusion of being shocked by his aura.

Next to them was the Tiangang Sword Sect, all of them sitting in a serious manner.

Every disciple of Tiangang Sword Sect is a master of swordsmanship, surpassing those of the same level. Although they are usually serious, their strength is unquestionable.

These two forces were the only ones in the field who were not whispering to each other, which also made the atmosphere in front of the hall slightly suppressed, and no one dared to laugh loudly.

Yin Hongxue leaned over, glanced at the person opposite her, and muttered, "Old man, you're just pretending."

Ling Xiyuan, who was sitting next to her, squeezed out a word from between his lips: "Senior Sister Yin, be careful of what you say."

For a powerful person in the fusion stage, even if the words are spoken softly at such a close distance, they can still hear it.

Yin Hongxue: "Don't worry, he must have blocked out all the noise, otherwise it would have been too noisy for him."

Ling Xiyuan: “…”

The Qingyan Sect's presiding elder, Heng Taiwei, naturally blocked out the chattering of these younger generations, which was more annoying than birds.

Since the Xie family was wiped out, the supply of magic weapons for Qingyan Sect has been much worse than before. It’s okay for disciples in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages, but the magic weapons of disciples in the Golden Core stage and above have begun to become less useful.

This is very detrimental to the development of Qingyan Sect.

If Xie Yuan were still alive, the Qingyan Sect wouldn't take the Tianlang Immortal Sect's God Transformation Ceremony, let alone the Fusion Ceremony, seriously.

Things are different now. For the long term, Qingyan Sect must rebuild its relationship with Tianlang Immortal Sect.

Now, the sect leader, in order to show his respect, let him, a fusion cultivator, come to celebrate, which gave Tian Lang enough face.

Heng Taiwei himself was very unhappy, but he still maintained dignity and composure on his face.

He Hongzhuo behind him hesitated for a while, but still reported quietly behind his back the recent conflict with the Hehuan Sect.

At that time, Xie Yunsui appeared in time. He thought that he had come specifically to mediate and still had a bit of goodwill.

Now that I saw Xie Yunsui and the other man sitting next to the woman I had just seen, I knew they were in the same group.

No wonder the woman said she would stop.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He was afraid that Xie Yunsui would complain to Ling Ye and others later, so he informed Elder Taiwei in advance.

Heng Taiwei sneered in his heart. Even fighting for a position is so restrictive. This generation of disciples...

Only when he heard "Xie Yunsui, a disciple of Venerable Ling Ye" did he open his eyes slightly.

Xie Yunsui was playing with a spiritual fruit in his hand, listening to the bickering between his Xiaoxi and Yin Hongxue, waiting for the banquet to begin, when he suddenly felt like he was being spied on. He looked around in a daze, but saw nothing wrong.

He was not from the Hehuan Sect, but he sat in the Hehuan Sect's seat. Indeed, many disciples from other sects looked over. Even some senior brothers who passed by were slightly stunned when they saw him sitting there.

But these glances were not so obviously exploratory.

Make him feel offended.

He glanced at Xiaoxi and saw that he looked normal, so he knew that this matter was directed at him alone.

On the other side, Heng Taiwei was stunned. This person, Xie Yunsui... was actually impossible to see through?

Xie Yunsui is only at the Golden Core level...

Unless someone was deliberately covering up for him, who was it? Ling Ye?

Why would an ordinary disciple need to use a concealing magic weapon?

Heng Taiwei suddenly had a lot of thoughts, and the idea that he had previously rejected popped up again.

Just as he was about to explore it again, he heard a loud voice outside the hall:

"The leader of Tianlang Immortal Sect has arrived—"

"Venerable Ling Ye has arrived—"

…

The banquet lasted three days. On the first day, people would just exchange pleasantries and sing songs about the various gifts brought by the various sects.

Xie Yunsui kept wondering who was looking at him just now.

Ling Xiyuan noticed that he was distracted and asked in a low voice, "What are you thinking about?"

Didn’t you see the gaze of Venerable Ling Ye above glancing over at you again and again?

Xie Yunsui always had a bad feeling. His eyes lingered on Heng Taiwei across from him for a moment, but he didn't say anything: "It's okay."

Until the end of the banquet today, Xie Yunsui no longer felt any discomfort.

The second day was the day when Qifeng came to the limelight. The disciples under Ling Ye took action one after another to refine magical instruments for the distinguished guests.

Xie Yunsui chose Yin Hongxue.

Yin Hongxue is good at using whips, and Xie Yunsui is also quite skilled, so he chose dragon bones as the main material without thinking.

Just as he was about to choose wind and thunder and other materials, Yin Hongxue already had a purple lightning whip, so he turned to look at the ice soul essence.

Xie Yunsui refined the magic weapon without much thought or hesitation. His calm and relaxed look made Heng Tai frown slightly.

His weapon-refining skills don't seem to be a disguise.

That man was born with a sword bone, but knew nothing about refining weapons, which was why he was accepted as a disciple by his Qingyan Sect.

He Hongzhuo, who was behind him, came to report quietly after a night of investigation:

"Xie Yunsui's background is indeed mysterious. He first appeared in the Dan Sheng Secret Realm, but nothing can be found before that. It's like he appeared out of thin air..."

Hengtai closed his eyes slightly.

The boy's whereabouts began to disappear after that trip to the Dan Sheng Secret Realm.

"After the Dansheng Secret Realm, he kept a low profile. The next time he appeared, he was at Wanxiang Tower, where he was accepted as a disciple by Ling Ye. However, he didn't bring him back to the Tianlang Immortal Sect. Instead, he trained alone outside. The Burning Sky Mountains were barren, and he stayed there for half a year. Afterwards, it seems he inexplicably opened a shop in Cangyu City, mainly selling magic tools..."

Heng Taiwei's breathing became disordered.

Cangyu City, Guiyuan Sect.

When the family was about to be exterminated, Xie Yunsui appeared.

Is it really such a coincidence?

"In tomorrow's competition, you will challenge Xie Yunsui and force him to take action."

Now that Qifeng has had its moment in the spotlight, it’s time for disciples from other sects to show off their strength.

On the third day of the banquet, there was a small gathering for cultivating immortals.

The Tianlang Immortal Sect prepared a lot of prizes, and the highest prize was even a mid-grade earth-level magic weapon, which was personally refined by Ling Ye.

If the disciples of each sect can obtain it, they can keep it for their own future use to encourage themselves to practice, use it to please their predecessors, or exchange it for more suitable resources.

As soon as this prize was announced, the interest of the disciples from all sects was aroused.

The venue was changed to a special fighting arena. The fighting stage was very large, with a layer of spiritual light at the edge.

Anyone who leaves the fighting arena, whether on their own or because they are defeated and thrown out, will be considered the loser.

Ling Xiyuan knew that he did not have the strength to win the grand prize, but it was a rare opportunity to have a formal competition with disciples from other sects, so he found an opponent early and took the lead in challenging him.

Xie Yunsui is not interested in fighting. His strength is all earned by spending money. Every fight will make Xiao Wan further away from upgrading, so he has no intention of participating.

He didn't want to come at first, but since Xiaoxi wanted to come, he followed her.

Still feeling the discomfort of being scrutinized and investigated, Xie Yunsui squinted his eyes and looked at Heng Taiwei on the high seat. Suddenly, he heard a voice:

"He Hongzhuo of the Qingyan Sect would like to consult with Venerable Lingye, Xie Yunsui."
