Chapter 1078: News from Sword Land
As one of the top ten sects in the Emperor's Realm and one of the four guardian sects, Sword Land's influence covers an extrely large area.
Compared to the cultivation world, its status would be on par with sects like the Divine Dan Sect and the Martial God Hall, if not even stronger.
At this mont, within the territory of Sword Land, Su Jingzhen and his companions erged from an inconspicuous mountain stream.
The area was remote, and Su Jingzhen's divine consciousness could not detect any traces of cultivators nearby.
Even in such a desolate part of the Emperor's Realm, the spiritual energy wasn't particularly dense, similar to most places in the cultivation world.
"The Immortal Palace is truly low-key. I thought that coming from the Immortal Palace's main teleportation array, we would at least be able to go directly to Sword Land's headquarters. I didn't expect that we would end up in such a remote wilderness,"
Su Jingzhen said with a smile.
Li Lingxi replied, "All of these secret super teleportation arrays are like this. Maybe the Immortal Palace's teleportation array has coordinates to Sword Land's headquarters, but we didn't inform Sword Land of our arrival this ti.
Moreover, your team didn't get along well with Sword Land's team during the trial of the Divine Shepherd Sect. It wouldn't be appropriate to show up at their headquarters.
They might even use it as an excuse to cause trouble,"
Facing a major sect with unclear intentions, Li Lingxi was cautious.
She had only recently broken through to the Immortal Emperor's Realm and was relatively unknown in the Emperor's Realm.
If they were to arrive openly and were t with hostility, it would be awkward.
It was better to start off discreetly and find another opportunity.
As she spoke, Li Lingxi's divine consciousness spread out in all directions.
With her Immortal Emperor level cultivation, the range of her divine consciousness was naturally vast.
Soon, she identified a direction and led the group onward.
Soon, a majestic city ca into view.
Li Lingxi led Su Jingzhen and the others directly into the city, even though they had slightly changed their appearance and aura.
The striking appearance and presence of their group was too conspicuous, and since the trial of the Divine Shepherd Realm had only ended a few days ago, Su Jingzhen's na and spiritual image had probably already spread throughout the Emperor's Realm.
If they were to appear openly, it would undoubtedly cause so trouble.
This city was called Qingyuan City, a territory under Sword Land's subordinate sect, the Qingyuan Sect.
The Qingyuan Sect was rely a third-rate force under Sword Land, with its strongest cultivator only at the True Immortal Realm.
They entered the city to find a way to reach Sword Land's headquarters.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they spread their divine consciousness, they picked up so interesting news.
The hottest topic in Sword Land these days were three words: Sword Qi Corridor!
This was also Su Jingzhen's ultimate goal.
They didn't even need to inquire further, as many cultivators in Qingyuan City were discussing it.
From their earlier encounter with Jian Xin, Su Jingzhen and his companions knew that the Sword Qi Corridor was the most powerful place of opportunity in Sword Land, containing the legacies left behind by the ancient sages of Sword Land.
There was even a chance to obtain special bodies such as the Jian Ling Body left behind by the ancient sword ancestors.
Recently, the Sword Qi Corridor had opened.
The top one hundred core disciples of Sword Land could enter to seek opportunities.
Each of these one hundred disciples could bring ten helpers with them.
Over the past few days, the core disciples had been recruiting helpers within the Sword Land territory.
Any young cultivator under the age of a thousand years could apply for the limited spots.
After passing the tests, they could follow the core disciples into the Sword Qi Corridor.
All the subordinate forces under Sword Land could recomnd talents.
The Qingyuan Sect region was the recruitnt area for one of Sword Land's core disciples, the "Flying Snow Sword Immortal," Saintess Lin Ying.
The Flying Snow Sword Immortal was one of the Sword Land's ten great saintesses, though she ranked at the bottom.
Her cultivation was at the peak of the Mystic Immortal realm, similar to Jian Xin, whom Su Jingzhen had t during the trial of the Divine Shepherd Realm.
The leader of the Ten Great Saintesses of Sword Land was the most influential and powerful, Saintess Qingyue.
Jian Xin had ntioned earlier that Saintess Qingyue was the cause of Zhang Xiu's ostracism within Sword Land.
Upon hearing this news, Su Jingzhen imdiately connected the dots.
This ti, the top one hundred core disciples entering the Sword Qi Corridor together was most likely related to the Saintess Qingyue.
Her target was undoubtedly the Jian Ling body.
From another perspective, this suggested that Zhang Xiu might be about to succeed in the corridor, and the Saintess Qingyue was clearly worried.
A faint smile appeared on Su Jingzhen's lips. "We have arrived at the right ti. Let's give a big gift to the Qingyuan Sect."
For Su Jingzhen, the Sword Land event was the perfect opportunity.
Aside from Li Lingxi, the rest of their group could be considered part of the younger generation.
Ning Yao's cultivation was still weak and didn't quite et the criteria, but Su Jingzhen, Qiu Yaoyao, and Shengana should have no trouble qualifying.
Having made their decision, the group didn't hesitate and headed straight for the Qingyuan Sect's location.
At this mont, Qingyuan Sect was the liveliest place in the city, as many young cultivators with similar intentions had co to try their luck.
Today, the Qingyuan Sect wasn't restricting entry, and all cultivators could directly enter their central square where a dueling platform had been set up.
Many cultivators were already competing on it.
Although the Qingyuan Sect was only a third-rate sect, the minimum requirent to be recomnded by them was the Great Perfection Realm.
Of course, the Great Perfection Realm cultivators were mostly there to make up the numbers. To really stand out, one needed to be at least at the late Spirit Immortal to Mystic Immortal realm.
However, Qingyuan Sect's strongest cultivator was only at the True Immortal Realm, so there weren't many young cultivators at the Spirit Immortal or Mystic Immortal level.
Su Jingzhen and his group didn't imdiately step onto the arena to compete.
Instead, Li Lingxi's divine consciousness swept over the area, and she led the group directly to the deepest part of Qingyuan Sect, into a grand hall.
The hall was surrounded by a barrier, but to Li Lingxi, it was nothing more than a trivial obstacle. They entered the hall without alerting the barrier.
Inside, an elderly man with white hair was sitting in ditation.
This was the Qingyuan Sect's strongest cultivator, a peak elder of the True Immortal Realm.
It was only when they were right in front of him that the old man woke up.
Seeing the group before him, he was horrified.
"Who... who are you? Why have you intruded into my secluded cultivation space?" the old man stamred, even though he knew that anyone who could enter this place unnoticed must be overwhelmingly powerful.
Li Lingxi didn't waste words and briefly released her Immortal Emperor level aura.
"Immortal... Immortal Emperor!"
The old man stuttered, feeling as though his life-and the Qingyuan Sect-were over.
He had no idea when he had offended such a mighty figure.
As a peak cultivator of the True Immortal Realm, the strongest he usually interacted with were Immortal Kings.
He was overco with fear.
Before he could ask anything, Li Lingxi spoke again, "Don't ask questions. Just do as I say."
