Huo Yuchong was about to challenge Jie Zizhuo to a duel, but Luo Jianqing coughed softly. Cautiously, Huo Yuchong glanced at his senior brother, then lost his temper. He muttered, "I'll settle with you later," and then stood aside obediently.
Luo Jianqing is still quite authoritative among his fellow disciples. After all, whoever has the bigger fist is the boss in the world of cultivation. The Seven Sons of Taihua are all well-known figures in the outside world, but once they arrive at their own sect, they will be beaten to a pulp by the eldest brother.
Only Zuo Yunmo can compete with Luo Jianqing. Among the other five people, even the third senior sister Wei Qiongyin is not Luo Jianqing's opponent.
Soon, Venerable Hao Xingzi came flying in and walked to the center of Lingyun Hall and sat down.
As if unaware of the younger generation's movements, Hao Xingzi briefly explained the precautions for this sect competition, then had Zuo Yunmo give a detailed introduction. He then said, "This sect competition is just in time for your twenty-four new brothers and sisters who have joined Taihua Mountain. Each peak should remember to instruct the new disciples: they don't seek victory, but rather competition. This matter has nothing to do with Yuxiao Peak, so Yunmo, you will be responsible for handling it properly."
Zuo Yunmo took a step forward and nodded, "Yes, Master."
For years, Yuxiao Peak had only had one disciple, Luo Jianqing. Each sect competition was sparsely attended, unlike the lively and enthusiastic ones at other peaks. However, Luo Jianqing was content with the quiet, as he could secure first place for Yuxiao Peak with just his sword.
When he was in the Qi Refining Stage, the first place in the Qi Refining Stage belonged to Yuxiao Peak. When he reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, the first place in the Foundation Establishment Stage would also inevitably belong to Yuxiao Peak. Now that he had completely become the most advanced disciple, the first place in the sect competition was his undisputed right. Not even Zuo Yunmo could have snatched a single cent from him.
In Lingyun Hall, the eldest senior brother, dressed in white with wide sleeves, looked relaxed, like Yuxiao Peak, perched atop the other peaks, aloof and unapproachable. Around his waist hung a long, tasseled pendant, adorned with a tiny, turquoise jade bead. This was Yuxiao Peak's token, a symbol of its status.
He just stood there calmly, but it seemed as if a unique temperament was blooming from him.
This is not just reflected by his excellent appearance. This is Luo Jianqing, the one and only senior brother of Taihua Mountain.
Venerable Hao Xingzi had been in charge of Mount Taihua for many years, and his instructions were somewhat lengthy. With the exception of Zuo Yunmo, the other direct disciples from each peak had long since passed away. Even Luo Jianqing simply stood upright, his mind grappling with some recent difficulties in his cultivation.
He didn't know how long it had been, but he heard a smiling voice beside his ear: "Brother, I'm about to break through."
As soon as these words fell, Luo Jianqing suddenly woke up and looked at Zuo Yunmo beside him in surprise.
Zuo Yunmo, wearing a light-colored school uniform belonging to Cang Shuang Peak, with a slightly curved brow, actually whispered to Luo Jianqing in front of his master: "I will do my best in this sect competition. I hope Senior Brother will not let me down."
Luo Jianqing nodded solemnly: "I will be fully prepared."
Over there, Venerable Hao Xingzi spoke for another quarter of an hour, perhaps realizing the inattention of these direct disciples. The white-haired old man coughed in frustration and continued, "Yun Mo will carefully instruct you on what I said before. But from now on, you must be extremely alert and listen carefully to my words."
Everyone immediately looked at Hao Xingzi seriously.
Hao Xingzi's expression gradually grew solemn, and he said in a stern tone, "A demon cultivator has appeared in Changzhou."
There was an uproar in the hall.
Wei Qiongyin's face turned cold, and she took a step forward and said, "Uncle Master, I am willing to go and destroy the enemy!"
Hao Xingzi waved his sleeves and said, "That evil cultivator has wiped out an entire sect this time, killing two of their supreme elders. The elder with the highest cultivation level has already reached the Nascent Soul stage. You're just going there to die!"
Wei Qiongyin's cold and beautiful face was filled with chill. Listening to Hao Xingzi's words, she gritted her teeth and said, "I will definitely kill the demon cultivator!"
Hao Xingzi sighed when he heard this and said nothing more.
Wei Qiongyin arrived at Taihua Mountain during her Foundation Establishment Period and had not grown up there. Normally, Taihua Mountain would only accept new disciples without any prior cultivation, but Wei Qiongyin's parents were close friends with the Peak Master of Bi Can Peak. So, when the demonic cultivators wiped out Wei Qiongyin's family, the Peak Master, despite all odds, took Wei Qiongyin in.
All cultivators in the world practice eighty-one major paths and three thousand minor paths.
Among them, human cultivation can be divided into Taoist cultivation, Buddhist cultivation, ghost cultivation, and demon cultivation. Taoist cultivation is based on cultivating the Great Dao, Buddhist cultivation is to save all living beings in the world, ghost cultivation is the cultivation of ghosts after death, and demon cultivation is an exception.
Demonic cultivators are rare on the Xuantian Continent, so rare that ordinary cultivators cannot find them. However, they are powerful and their cultivation methods are extremely cruel and vicious, making them the target of all cultivators. Although demonic cultivators will join forces with other cultivators to fight the enemy during the war between humans and demons, as long as they are not fighting against demons, the demonic cultivators will turn around and hunt human cultivators.
Luo Jianqing knew that demon cultivators were always solitary and rarely gathered together. However, demon cultivators all over the world respected a demon cultivator in the late Mahayana stage as the Demon Lord. This person's cultivation was only second to Xuan Lingzi, making him the second best in the world.
That Demon Lord founded the Demon Palace, and many demon cultivators joined his banner. Apart from him, there was no other organization or sect among the demon cultivators, and they were all independent cultivators.
However, even a single individual cultivator is enough to cause headaches for those of the righteous path. Before reaching the Nascent Soul stage, demonic cultivators are no different from other cultivators, yet their strength is superior to that of ordinary cultivators. Once they reach the Nascent Soul stage, demonic cultivators become even more formidable, forcing ordinary cultivators of the same level to face certain death.
