"Junior sister is intelligent." Liu Jinghong smiled. "Indeed, I did find a prescription that claims to repair the spiritual mansion. These five medicinal herbs are the most important ingredients."
As expected, Chu Hongluan's heart skipped a beat.
Although she had expected it, she still felt a sense of unreality when she finally received the answer.
“Very good. Although I cannot participate in this Nine Pavilions Summit with my senior brother, I will still be with him before the Spirit Realm.” Chu Hongluan smiled brightly, “May you enjoy such beautiful scenery and the ever-changing winds and clouds.”
The Nine Pavilions Summit arrived as scheduled.
The gates of Tianji Pavilion are wide open, welcoming heroes from all over the world to watch the competition.
The Nine Pavilions Summit is held every three years, and this time it is the Tianji Pavilion's turn to organize it. After the agreement between the Pavilion Master's wife and the elders of the peaks, the competition will be divided into two rounds, using a points system. The winner will be the one with the highest total points from both rounds.
The champion obtains ancient black iron. If he forges a sword with the black iron, the sword will be of the Heavenly Rank. If the weapon refiner's skills are exquisite, it is inevitable that he will forge a divine sword of the Immortal Rank!
The second place winner receives a set of Heavenly Rank Dharma Robes, which can withstand three full-force attacks from a Nascent Soul stage expert.
The third place winner receives 500,000 high-grade spirit stones, which is equivalent to 50 Heavenly Spirit Jades!
The disciples of the nine major sects are all in place: Tianji Pavilion and Sword Pavilion in the Southern Region; Dao Sect, Jade Maiden Sect, and Hehuan Sect in the Northern Region; Penglai Sect and Beast Taming Sect in the Eastern Region; and Wanfo Sect and Wu Sect in the Western Region.
Hmm? The Witch Clan didn't come?
"Huh? Why isn't the Witch Clan here?" The discussion among the audience rose and fell.
"You didn't know about something this big? I heard the Holy Maiden of the Witch Clan has gone missing and they're busy searching for her. How could they have time to attend the Nine Pavilion Summit!"
"The Witch Clan is still so unruly. They can't just skip such a big Nine Pavilions Summit!"
The original nine sects have been reduced to eight. The disciples are neatly lined up there. According to the rules, each sect has fifteen people. However, the Sword Sect only has one disciple, a nine-foot-tall man who stands there with his sword on his back. His short red hair is exceptionally dazzling in the sunlight.
But everyone present seemed unsurprised.
The Northern Region Blade Sect is located in an extremely cold region. Due to the special nature of its cultivation methods, it only accepts one successor per generation. The successors are required to have a pure yang body, be virgins, and have an affinity for the blade. They must also be free-spirited, have exceptional comprehension, and be able to endure arduous training.
It would be quite good if one successor could be found in three to five hundred years.
Typically, each sect leader takes on a disciple and guides them to a certain level before stepping down and accepting the position of elder to continue their arduous cultivation without end.
But with only one disciple per generation and fewer than ten cultivators in the entire sect, they still managed to rank among the nine major sects. That's what makes the Blade Sect so terrifying.
Compared to the disciples of the Sword Sect, everyone noticed Liu Jinghong first.
"Why are Qi cultivators participating in the competition?! Is there no one left in the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion? She's quite good-looking, though."
"Shh—that's the young master of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion!"
"Huh? The young master of the seventh level of Qi Refining?"
"You don't know this, do you? Three years ago at the Nine Pavilion Summit, this young pavilion master won first place!"
"Pfft, you're kidding me, right?"
"Hey, this is Tianji Pavilion's territory! I'm making fun of their young master here, am I out of my mind?!"
"That……"
"It's a pity, really. Young Master Liu was the youngest Golden Core cultivator in the realm... It's just a shame..."
"Alas, let bygones be bygones, let bygones be bygones!"
