The Azure Lotus Sect was once one of the most powerful sects in the Central Plains, and its founder was a great cultivator in the mid-stage of the Integration Realm. However, after tens of thousands of years, the Azure Lotus Sect's strength is now far inferior to what it once was.
Even a broken ship has some iron; although the Azure Lotus Sect has declined, it still retains some foundation. While it is no longer one of the strongest sects in the Central Plains, it can still be considered a major sect.
The current sect leader of the Azure Lotus Sect is named Luo Panzhong, and his cultivation level is at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm.
Besides the sect leader, the Azure Lotus Sect also has two elders at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm. In addition, there are more than two thousand Nascent Soul stage disciples, as well as other Nascent Soul, Golden Core, Foundation Establishment, and Qi Refining stage disciples, totaling more than one hundred thousand.
"That Tianshan Sect was too arrogant!"
Inside the main hall, the Qinglian Sect Master, Luo Panzhong, slammed his wine cup down on the table, splashing wine everywhere. Luo Panzhong was an extremely burly man, dressed in a brocade robe, bald from head to toe, with long earlobes and a face full of fleshy features.
“Those women are indeed too, too arrogant!” said Elder Chen of the Qinglian Sect.
"However, the current leader of the Tianshan Sect is said to be at the late stage of the Void Refinement realm, and the late stage of the Void Refinement realm is not easy to deal with!" The speaker was Elder Bai of the Qinglian Sect.
"So what if they're in the late stage of the Void Refinement realm? With my grandmaster uncle here, even those in the late stage of the Void Refinement realm can't cause any trouble. Hmph, Tianshan Sect, I'll make all these bastards my dual cultivation furnaces." The compass chuckled lewdly.
A grandmaster of the Azure Lotus Sect, who had been missing for over three thousand years, secretly returned to the sect a few months ago. This grandmaster had been trapped in an ancient ruin during a training expedition. Although he was trapped there for over three thousand years, he gained a great fortune and is now at the early stage of the Integration Realm.
Elder Chen and Elder Bai's courage immediately returned at the thought of their grand-uncle. Then they thought of the many beautiful female disciples of the Tianshan Sect, even the several Void Refinement stage elders were beauties; they imagined using them as cultivation partners, stealing their cultivation power... hehe...
"It is said that the new sect leader is an absolute beauty..." Elder Chen stroked his goatee and smiled as he looked at the compass.
He saw through his thoughts at a glance and chuckled, saying, "If she really is a stunning beauty, then this sect leader won't compete with you for those three women, Ye Qinghua, Shi Xinyi, and Xiao Yanyan."
I wonder if my grandmaster uncle would also want a dual cultivation vessel. Probably not. My grandmaster uncle doesn't seem to be lustful, but if the new sect leader of Tianshan Sect still had his primordial yin, even if he wasn't lustful, my grandmaster uncle wouldn't let him go!
Anyway, he still has Ye Qinghua, Shi Xinyi and Xiao Yanyan to choose from. If his grandmaster wants the Tianshan Sect leader, he can take all three of them. Absorbing their power should allow him to break through the bottleneck of the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm and enter the late stage of the Void Refinement realm, right?
Those three women were all quite pretty; before draining their power, I'd have to play with them a bit...
As he was lost in thought, a terrifying storm of spiritual energy suddenly swept through the entire Azure Lotus Sect. Within the compass, Elder Chen and Elder Bai's expressions changed drastically. A powerful enemy?
They exchanged a glance, and then their figures disappeared from the hall.
Outside the main hall, everyone in the Azure Lotus Sect looked up at the enormous airship speeding towards them from afar. The massive airship was shrouded in a dazzling light and quickly arrived above the Azure Lotus Sect from the horizon. The flag of the Heavenly Mountain Sect was flying on the airship, and several figures stood on the highest deck.
A girl in purple robes with blue eyes stood at the front. This girl in purple robes had an exceptionally beautiful face and skin as white as snow. She exuded the aura of a late-stage Void Refinement cultivator.
To the left and right of the girl in purple were four cultivators at the Void Refinement stage, three women and one man. The three women were fine, but the male cultivator in white was absolutely handsome, with an ethereal and otherworldly appearance.
After the airship came to a stop, the Tianshan Sect disciples standing on the first, second, and third floors transformed into streaks of light and flew out, forming a formation and standing in the sky.
The Qinglian Sect Master, Luo Panzhong, along with Elder Chen and Elder Bai, all wore solemn expressions, but upon thinking of their grandmaster, they immediately felt relieved. These women had come to their doorstep; that was perfect.
Looking at A Yao floating in the air through the compass, he thought to himself: Is this the new leader of the Tianshan Sect? She is indeed a stunning beauty!
He had never seen such a beautiful woman before, and the thought of cultivating with such a stunning beauty made him a little restless.
Elder Chen and Elder Bai both felt that A Yao looked familiar, but couldn't quite place who she resembled. They recognized Ye Qinghua, Shi Xinyi, and Xiao Yanyan who were beside A Yao, but they were all surprised to see Nangong Qi, whom they had never met before. Who was this male cultivator?
When did the Tianshan Sect acquire a male elder at the Refinement stage?
"Which one is in the Azure Lotus Sect Master's compass?" Ayao asked.
She actually knew who it was, but she was just asking knowingly.
Looking at A Yao, Luo Panzhong burst into laughter: "I, Luo Panzhong, believe this must be the new leader of the Tianshan Sect. May I ask your name, fellow Daoist?"
“Feng Yao,” A Yao said coldly.
When she said the name, Nangong Qi glanced at her face.
Nangong Qi didn't think much of it, assuming that A Yao didn't want to use her real name, so she chose the pseudonym Feng Yao.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Feng. Did Fellow Daoist Feng personally send herself here to be my concubine?" Luo Panzhong laughed. He thought that with his grandmaster uncle in charge, even the sect leader of Tianshan Sect, who was at the late stage of the Refinement Realm, would be easy to capture, so he spoke frivolously.
"rude!"
Streaks of silver spiritual energy shot out from the ground with lightning speed and incredible sharpness, causing the space to tremble. The pillars, statues, and pavilions built on the mountain peak collapsed with a deafening roar. The cuts of the collapsed bricks and stones were perfectly clean, leaving everyone in shock.
In the compass, Elder Chen and Elder Bai had already retreated, avoiding the spiritual lines. Their faces were all very ugly; they had actually started fighting without a word!
They really don't take the Azure Lotus Sect seriously at all.
The one who made the move was Nangong Qi. The compass glared angrily at Nangong Qi, its heart filled with extreme rage. How dare a mere early-stage Void Refinement cultivator be so insolent before him!
Enraged, he suddenly slammed his palm towards the Tianshan Sect's airship.
The surrounding天地元力 (heaven and earth energy) was drawn to his palm, and a burst of azure light erupted from his palm, forming a huge azure handprint in the sky. This handprint brought with it a storm, as if it would smash the entire floating ship to pieces.
Nangong Qi, his white robes fluttering, raised his hand, and the celestial artifact, the Spring Thunder Zither, appeared in his left hand. The seven-stringed zither was surrounded by celestial light, making Nangong Qi, who was holding the zither, look even more elegant and refined.
His slender fingers glided across the strings, and with a resounding clang, a bolt of white lightning flashed from the instrument, transforming into a silver-white lightning dragon that roared and clashed with the massive blue handprint that had attacked.
Boom!
The thunderous roar echoed endlessly as the azure handprint shattered upon impact with the silver-white thunder dragon. The thunder dragon's body dimmed, but it did not break. Carrying its remaining power, the dimmed thunder dragon charged towards the compass, silver lightning crackling and shooting through the air.
