Inside the cold ancient palace, there was a row of black tables and a yellow cushion on the ground. On the tables were some spiritual fruits, and bright red spiritual wine swirled in the cup, emitting an alluring fragrance.

When Chen Luo came in, there were already five people sitting inside.

These five people, like Chen Luo, were all at the Jindan stage. The leader, like him, had reached the middle stage of the Jindan stage. Chen Luo sensed the aura of the divine sword from these people. These five people, like him, were the heirs selected by each peak and were qualified to "wash the sword".

"Brother, please come this way."

Two inner disciples led him to sit in front of the sixth table. The five people in front had been resting their eyes, and Chen Luo's entry did not attract anyone's attention. The cultivators in the Jindan realm all have their own "Tao", and if there is no conflict of interest, no one will go to trouble others for some boring reasons.

After the two Taixuan Peak disciples settled Chen Luo down, they hurried out again.

The hall fell silent.

Chen Luo, like the five people before him, closed his eyes and meditated. Spiritual energy swirled outside his body. After the trip to the inn, Chen Luo's "Heart Demon Art" was improved again by the mummy's brain. After being integrated with the "This Life Method", the effect became even more powerful and could already be used in the outside world.

After one cycle was completed, footsteps were heard outside the door again.

This time was different from the previous time, it was the sound of a large group of people's footsteps.

All the people who were waiting outside the door came in at this moment, and a young man in a black robe led a large group of people into the hall. The young man's cultivation was at the late stage of foundation building, which was the lowest among the people in the hall, but no one dared to ignore him, because the token hanging on his waist was the same as Chen Luo's, indicating that he was a true disciple.

"It's Xuan Tianchong."

"The eldest grandson of Patriarch Taixuan"

Chen Luo opened his eyes and heard the voice transmission in secret. With his current cultivation level, he could hear clearly the voice transmission of those foundation-building cultivators outside.

"Is a Foundation Establishment Stage person also eligible for a spot in the Sword Washing Pool?"

Among the five people who sat in the hall first, one of them opened his eyes and said something in a cold tone.

This person has the cultivation base of the initial stage of Jindan, and he is wearing a plain yellow outfit. He looks up and down at the last disciple of Taixuan Peak with a cold look, and his words are not polite. This person is a disciple of Tailing Peak, and the relationship between the two peaks is not good.

It’s a pity that Xuan Tianchong, who came in last, completely ignored this person’s question, sat down in the seventh seat next to Chen Luo, picked up the spiritual fruit on the table and started eating.

"Pah, why does it smell so sour?"

Xuan Tianchong spat out the spiritual fruit in his mouth, his face full of disgust. Although he was talking about the spiritual fruit, everyone understood what he meant.

The master of Tai Lingfeng who had spoken earlier looked even colder.

"Brother Chen, did these people make things difficult for you before? I heard that you got in through connections." Xuan Tianchong threw the spiritual fruit he had taken a bite of aside, moved to Chen Luo's side, and put his hand on his shoulder.

Although this person is at the Foundation Establishment stage, he is not afraid of Jindan cultivators.

His birth gave him the greatest confidence. As the eldest grandson of Patriarch Taixuan and a genius who had built his foundation for a hundred years, Xuan Tianchong had never known how to write the word "afraid of people" since he was a child.

"No."

Chen Luo glanced at the man and responded casually.

"I understand, these old guys bully the weak and fear the strong." Xuan Tianchong slapped his thigh and shouted loudly.

"Xuan Tianchong, who are you talking about, old boy?!"

The Taisu Peak True Transmission turned his head to the side, his eyes wide open. This was a female cultivator, and although she was speaking angry words, her expression was very cute. She looked like a child, with big, lively eyes and a round face. When she got angry, her eyebrows knitted together, and she looked like she was making a face.

"What's wrong with you? I've only been practicing for a hundred years. All of you here are old monsters over five hundred years old. If you gave me five hundred years, I would have already condensed into an infant."

Xuan Tianchong pointed at the Tai Su Feng master who was speaking and said bluntly.

He has only been practicing for about a hundred years, and has been in the late stage of foundation building for more than a hundred years. This kind of aptitude is extremely rare even in the Qionghua Sect. It can only be achieved by a natural spiritual root and a special physique.

"alright."

The Taihao Peak True Disciple said something. He was the second Jindan mid-stage cultivator among the people present, except Chen Luo. As soon as he spoke, everyone calmed down, and even Xuan Tianchong sat back in his seat, which showed that this Taihao Peak True Disciple was a high-ranking person in the sect. If nothing unexpected happened, he should be the first True Disciple of the Qionghua Sect.

"Brother Chen, the old fellow I just mentioned has nothing to do with you. Listen to me, you have only practiced for two hundred years?"

After a short break, Xuan Tianchong started chatting with Chen Luo again.

Chen Luo had practiced for more than 200 years, said the ancient ancestor. This time, in order to help Chen Luo get the qualification to wash the sword pool, he helped Chen Luo fabricate an identity. No matter how long he had practiced before, from this moment on, it became 200 years.

A genius who has reached the Dan stage in 200 years! He is qualified enough to grab a spot in the Sword Washing Pool.

Chen Luo has only been practicing for about seventy years, which is even shorter than what Gu He fabricated. If this matter were spread out, it would cause great trouble. As a Yuanying cultivator, Gu He naturally knew the problem, so he helped Chen Luo to change it. After condensing the golden elixir, he had a lot of changes. It was difficult to find out his years of practice by simply observing. Even a Yuanying cultivator could not see through it. In this way, no one would see the problem in Gu He's words.

Chen Luo ignored him. Xuan Tianchong gave him a very strange feeling.

It was as if he was deliberately hiding something. Such people often represented trouble, and Chen Luo hated trouble the most.

"Did you take over Yaowang City?"

Xuan Tianchong didn't care about Chen Luo's reaction and continued talking.

None of the other disciples standing on the edge dared to interrupt, not only the inner disciples, but also those who had the tokens of true disciples. There is also a gap between true disciples and true disciples. If Chen Luo and the other seven people pass the test of the Sword Washing Pool, they will become the next generation of the Seven Ancestors of Qionghua.

Wield the divine sword and gain inheritance.

This is the foundation of the Qionghua Sect. There is no such thing as fairness or unfairness. This has always been the case in the world of immortal cultivation.

"yes."

"What a pity! I've been planning for so long, but I didn't expect it to fall into your hands." Xuan Tianchong showed regret in his eyes.

Yaowang City is a piece of fat meat.

Before Chen Luo came, Yaowang City had been forced into a desperate situation. At that time, Xuan Tianchong specially sent people to find the Lord of Yaowang City, hoping that he could surrender to his side. Unexpectedly, Chen Luo showed up and snatched Yaowang City away.

Chen Luo glanced at him when he heard that.

"Don't think too much, I just said it casually. With just a Yaowang City, we brothers shouldn't be so poor." Xuan Tianchong said immediately.

While the two were talking, two figures walked out from the inner hall.

Seeing this person, everyone stood up.

The leader was the head of Taixuan Peak, and the other person was a young woman with black hair. She wore a purple-gold hairpin on her head and tied her hair up. Her skin was as white as sheep fat, and there was a red cinnabar mole under her left eye. With the smile on her face, she gave people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.

"Ancestor, Fairy Lingchi."

The leader, the true disciple of Taihao Peak, saluted respectfully to the two men.

Nascent Soul.

Chen Luo determined the cultivation levels of the two men at first sight. For him now, only the Nascent Soul Ancestor could give him such a sense of oppression.

"Your sect is truly enviable, to have so many Jindan true teachings."

The two Nascent Souls sat down on the main seat and chatted among themselves.

Chen Luo and a group of true disciples silently observed the two. The appearance of Fairy Lingchi represented the alliance between Qionghua Sect and Lingchi, and the alliance between two of the four major immortal sects in Tiannan. The other two forces, the Millennium Ancient Country and Jinguang Cave, must have had exchanges, otherwise Lingchi would not have taken the initiative to approach them.

"They are all young people. They still have a long way to go if they want to be independent." The leader of Taixuan Peak said a few polite words and turned the topic to business.

"I wonder where your disciples are now?"

The two factions united to fight the enemy together.

When the Qionghua Sect and the Millennium Ancient Country were fighting, the Spirit Pool and the Golden Light Cave were also fighting. Now that the four forces have stopped fighting at the same time, it means that a bigger storm is brewing. In this situation, both factions want to increase their own strength.

The Sword Washing Pool was opened ahead of schedule this time for this reason.

“We’re already here.”

The fairy Lingchi on the main seat stretched out her left hand, counted with two fingers, stood up and walked outside. The master of Taixuan Peak and other true disciples also followed.

In the sky, a stream of light came closer and closer.

The moment she saw the flowing light, Fairy Lingchi quickly raised her hand, and a pure white ribbon flew out from her sleeves, like a rainbow bridge facing the flowing light in the sky.

"It's the Sect Master."

There was a sound coming from the sky, and the next moment the stream of light changed direction in the sky and flew down towards the sky bridge formed by the ribbons.

Three figures stepped on white cloud scarves and landed in front of the hall.

The three women are all true disciples of Lingchi.

"What a great 'White Cloud Fairy Bridge'."

The Taixuan Peak Master's eyes flickered. Fairy Lingchi's seemingly casual action just now easily avoided their Qionghua Sect's formation. This alone showed Fairy Lingchi's attainments in formations.

Fourth-level formation master!

This is even rarer than a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, fellow Taoist."

Fairy Lingchi put away the scarf and smiled at the master of Taixuan Peak.

Xuan Tianchong and the others all looked at the three Lingchi disciples behind them. These three women were all Jindan. Although their numbers were not as many as those of the Qionghua Sect, each of them was very strong. The leader was also a strong man in the middle stage of Jindan, and her aura was even stronger than that of the Taihao Peak True Disciple.

"Now that everyone is here, let's set off. The Sword Washing Pool can be opened ahead of schedule this time, thanks to your sect's Spirit Pool."

The Lingchi Sect is as famous as its name, and the most famous thing in the sect is a spiritual pond. It is said that this spiritual pond, like the Qionghua Seven Swords, fell from the upper world. The spiritual liquid in the spiritual pond can change a person's physique, allowing those who practice the Lingchi technique to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Just like the Qionghua Sect, the fact that Lingchi can continuously produce Nascent Soul is also inseparable from the contribution of Lingchi.

Each of the four major forces in the Tiannan Region has similar things.

"Since it's a cooperation, we naturally have to show sincerity." Fairy Lingchi chuckled, and walked towards the side hall with three disciples and Patriarch Taixuan.

There is a teleportation array over there.

The location of the Qionghua Sect's Sword Washing Pool can only be reached through the teleportation array. (End of this chapter)
