The remaining people fixed their gazes on Mo Bai, who fearfully hid behind Rong Jiaojiao and said, "Wife!"
The remaining powerful figures felt extremely annoyed and cursed, "Your Xuantian Sword Sect really knows how to swindle."
After hurling their insults, they tore through space and departed, leaving only Rong Jiaojiao, Qing Xuanzi, Qi Lan, Lin Xiaoman, Mo Bai, Jun Yuangui, Mingyang Sword Master, and Tianji Venerable on the field.
Tianji glanced at Jun Yuangui and said, "Let's go, let's go to your place first."
The Sword Master of Mingyang and the Venerable of Tianji led the six of them through space, and soon the eight of them landed on Mingyang Peak of the Xuantian Sword Sect.
This was the residence of the Sword Master Mingyang. The moment their feet touched the ground, the Sword Master Mingyang beckoned to Jun Yuangui. Rong Jiaojiao called out nervously, "Master..."
The Sword Master Mingyang laughed and said, "Look how nervous you are. Do you think I'm going to eat him?"
Rong Jiaojiao felt awkward, but she just didn't want Jun Yuangui to disappear or be refined into an avatar.
Jun Yuangui smiled brightly: "I'm not afraid!"
The Sword Master of Mingyang placed his right palm on Jun Yuangui's head, slowly extracting the memories belonging to the Sword Master of Mingyang, and then severing the ties between them.
The Celestial Master kept calculating with his fingers, and after a while he said with satisfaction, "Not bad, it's broken."
Jun Yuangui was somewhat dazed at this moment, as if he was missing something, or as if a shackle that had always been on him had disappeared, and he felt extremely relaxed.
The Venerable Tianji asked Jun Yuangui, "Young man, would you be willing to become my disciple?"
Jun Yuangui said, "I have a master in the lower realm."
Venerable Tianji laughed and said, "What's wrong with that? In the Five Elements Realm, it's not uncommon for a disciple to have multiple masters."
Jun Yuangui thought for a moment. He had indeed learned divination techniques in the lower realm, so going to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion would be suitable. Without further hesitation, he immediately knelt down: "Master, please accept my bow!"
"Alright, let's go!"
Without waiting for Jun Yuangui and Rong Jiaojiao to say goodbye, she disappeared in the blink of an eye with him.
As soon as they left, Sword Master Mingyang smiled and looked at the remaining five people: "Sit down, everyone, and I'll tell you what happened."
The group sat down at the stone table in the courtyard. Mingyang Sword Master continued, "I will soon undergo the tribulation of ascension, so I will be unable to protect you. Moreover, you are all very talented geniuses, so I would like to recommend a few elders to you. See if you would like to become their disciples."
He then looked at Rong Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, with your experience, I think you can cultivate well without having to become a disciple."
"You have rendered meritorious service to the Five Elements Realm and are also a meritorious contributor to the Xuan Tian Sword Sect. Therefore, the sect has decided to leave Mingyang Peak to you, regardless of whether you wish to seek another master."
Rong Jiaojiao stood up and said, "Master, I don't need to become a disciple anymore, but please choose a suitable master for my companion, not the kind that you take home and then let him run wild."
Seeing that Rong Jiaojiao was so considerate of her companions, Mingyang Sword Master nodded with satisfaction. Then, he raised his hand and waved several communication talismans, which turned into streams of light and flew to various parts of the Xuantian Sword Sect.
Before long, three figures arrived, stepping through the air and landing on Mingyang Peak.
The first was a burly middle-aged man carrying a giant sword. His aura was sharp and powerful, yet he remained as steady as a mountain. When he landed, the entire Mingyang Peak trembled slightly.
The second woman was aloof and elegant, dressed in pure white, with a slender sword hanging at her waist. Her eyes were indifferent, yet they subtly revealed a sharp edge.
The third was a smiling old man holding an ancient book in his hands. He looked nothing like a sword cultivator, but rather like a refined scholar.
The Mingyang Sword Master introduced with a smile: "This is the Chongyue Sword Master, who specializes in the Xuantian Heavy Sword Technique. His sword aura is as imposing as a mountain, and his domineering power is unparalleled."
"This is the 'Frost Sword Master,' who cultivates the 'Mysterious Heaven Ice Soul Sword.' His sword intent is as cold as frost, extremely chilling."
"This is the 'Scholar of Books and Swords.' Although he cultivates the way of the sword, he uses the sword to enrich his writing and uses his writing to nourish his sword. His sword moves are unpredictable and ever-changing."
He looked at Qi Lan, Mo Bai, Lin Xiaoman, and Qing Xuanzi and said, "The four of you can choose for yourselves. If you find someone you like, you can become their disciple."
Qi Lan's gaze swept over the three sword masters, finally settling on Sword Master Chongyue. He clasped his hands and said, "Senior's sword aura is as solid as a mountain. This junior wishes to become your disciple!"
Sword Master Chongyue laughed heartily: "Good! You're strong and robust, just right for my greatsword style!"
Lin Xiaoman then looked at Frost Sword Master and bowed gracefully: "Senior's sword intent is like frost, and I admire it greatly."
The Frost Sword Master nodded slightly: "You have an ice spiritual root within you, which is indeed suitable for my sword path."
Mo Bai hesitated for a moment, then looked at the Sword Master and tentatively asked, "Senior's swordsmanship... seems to be different from that of ordinary sword cultivators?"
The Master of Books and Swords nodded with a smile: "A sword doesn't necessarily have to be sharp and conspicuous; it can also be hidden within words. Would you like to give it a try?"
Mo Bai's eyes lit up: "This junior is willing!"
Finally, only Qing Xuanzi remained. He pondered for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, "I am not suited to the path of sword cultivation, and my natal weapon is array formations. I am also more proficient in talismans and array formations."
An unfamiliar voice chimed in, "Perfect timing, old Taoist is skilled in the art of formations."
A figure in azure light descended through the air. The newcomer had white hair but a youthful face, carrying a jade ruler and seven ancient copper coins hanging from his waist. He landed smilingly before Qing Xuanzi: "This old Daoist, 'Tianyan,' has dedicated thousands of years to the study of formations. Young friend, since you are proficient in formations, would you be willing to cultivate with me?"
Qing Xuanzi looked at Mingyang Sword Master, who said, "If you want to pursue the path of formations, no one is more talented than him."
Rong Jiaojiao nodded and kept winking at Qing Xuanzi.
Qing Xuanzi then stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "This disciple is willing."
Tianyan Array Master then withdrew his gaze, took out an array plate and tossed it to Qing Xuanzi: "Take this and play with it for now. Come find me at Tianyan Peak tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned into a blue light and disappeared.
After everyone had finished paying their respects to their masters, Mingyang Sword Master looked at Rong Jiaojiao with a solemn expression: "Jiaojiao, I am about to ascend. If you encounter any difficulties in the Xuantian Sword Sect in the future, you can seek help from the Sect Master or a few Supreme Elders."
Rong Jiaojiao's eyes were slightly red as she whispered, "Master, you will definitely be able to ascend successfully."
Sword Master Mingyang laughed heartily: "Of course! I am the number one swordsman in the world!"
He paused, then lowered his voice and said, "However, you have abundant luck, so you must be careful in your future actions and avoid being schemed against."
Rong Jiaojiao nodded solemnly: "Disciple understands."
Three days later, dark clouds gathered and lightning surged above the Xuantian Sword Sect, alarming all cultivators in the Five Elements Realm.
The Sword Master of Mingyang stood in the void, holding an ancient longsword, facing the rolling heavenly tribulation without any fear.
"boom--!"
As the first bolt of lightning struck, he swung his sword, unleashing a sword aura that stretched for three thousand miles, directly shattering the lightning!
"Such powerful sword intent!" The onlookers were all shocked.
Rong Jiaojiao and the others stood at a distance, nervously watching the sky.
Mo Bai said in a low voice, "Senior Mingyang's swordsmanship has reached the pinnacle of perfection."
Lin Xiaoman clenched her fist: "We will definitely succeed!"
The lightning bolts grew more ferocious with each strike, but the swordsmanship of the Bright Sun Sword Master became increasingly sharp. In the end, he even took the initiative to meet the thunderclouds and cleaved the sky with a single sword strike!
"Snap—!"
The heavenly tribulation was forcibly cleaved open, a crack appeared, golden light cascaded down, and celestial music lingered.
Sword Master Mingyang glanced back at Rong Jiaojiao, then laughed loudly, "Disciple, I'll take my leave first! See you in the Immortal Realm!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure transformed into a sword light, rushing into the crack in the sky and disappearing from sight.
After the Mingyang Sword Master ascended to immortality, Rong Jiaojiao officially took over Mingyang Peak.
Qi Lan, Lin Xiaoman, Mo Bai, and others also followed their masters to cultivate, while Qing Xuanzi successfully became a disciple of the Sword Array Elder after he emerged from seclusion.
Everything is on track, but the story of Rong Jiaojiao and the others is still long...
