“Om, ma, ni, be, , hum!”
“The Six-syllable Mantra, the Heaven Rank cultivation technique of the
Imasurable Temple!”
The attention of the Elders present concentrated on Master Mingzhi from the Imasurable Temple. They saw Master Mingzhi radiate golden light all over, emitting a Buddha’s brilliance tens of thousands of feet high. The prayer beads, driven by the Buddhist force, transford into the Six-syllable Mantra, suppressing the chief disciple of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion.
The chief disciple of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, Zeng Yeqiu, was defeated.
“The Imasurable Temple, worthy of its second place ranking among the Sects, with Master Mingzhi’s comprehension, won’t be long before he steps into the Void Refinent Realm, right?”
“The Inquiry Immortal Pavilion is in danger.”
With the defeat of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s foremost disciple in battle, the Pavilion had to play catch-up, looking to turn the tables.
“The second match is between Master Mingxin of the Imasurable Temple and Xiao ng’er of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion. This Xiao ng’er possesses an exceptional talent; she had been previously grood by the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion as the next Pavilion Master.”
Zhao Wuyan was endlessly knowledgeable about the secrets of various Sects.
“Lady, please enlighten .”
“Master Mingxin, please bestow your guidance.”
Xiao ng’er, in a light blue dress, held a three-foot longsword, circulating the Supre Forgetting Emotion Art. The aura of detachnt that filled the air was like that of a Heavenly Immortal above, untouchable.
“Your Supre Forgetting Emotion Art has reached the sixth layer…”
Master Mingxin’s face showed a slight change.
The Supre Forgetting Emotion Art was a forbidden technique of the Inquiry immortal Pavilion. Once cultivated to the sixth layer, it underwent a qualitative change compared to the fifth layer.
The chief disciple of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, Zeng Yeqiu, had only cultivated the Supre Forgetting Emotion Art to the fifth layer.
After the ti it takes to drinka cup of tea passed, Master Mingxin’s prayer beads fell to the ground, making a tick-tock sound, and Xiao ng’er sheathed her longsword.
In the second match, the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion won.
The Imasurable Temple and the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion each had a win, temporarily tied.
The focus shifted to the third match: Master Mingrang, an Elder of the Imasurable Temple, versus Xia Ningxue of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion.
“Master Mingrang is an Elder of the Imasurable Temple at the third level of Dao Palace Realm, while Xia Ningxue is the most recent disciple recruited by the Fairy Pavilion Master, with shallow cultivation. It seems that Master Mingrang will win no matter how you look at it.”
“The foundation of the Imasurable Temple is ultimately profound, worthy of the second largest Sect just behind our Mount Shu.”
“Lu, what do you think?”
A group of Mount Shu Elders discussed animatedly, and Zhao Wuyan turned to LuChangsheng.
Among the Elders of Mount Shu, only Lu Changsheng had so contact with
Xia Ningxue.
“I bet on Xia Ningxue to win.”
Lu Changsheng said calmly, stating his opinion.
Five years ago, Xia Ningxue was already at the first level of the Dao Palace Realm. Five years later, given Xia Ningxue’s astonishing rate of cultivation, her progress must have been substantial.
“Lu, you cannot judge by appearances. In a match, what matters is the cultivation levels and techniques of both sides. We should be realistic.”
“That’s right, Lu, you can’t bet on her just because Fairy Xia is as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal. We cultivators do not conduct ourselves in such a manner.”
“I still favor Master Mingrang more. Master Mingrang is the foremost Elder in the Imasurable Temple for the last three hundred years.”
The majority of Mount Shu Elders disagreed, thinking Lu Changsheng was being flippant.
Lu Changsheng did not reply, as the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator was going off incessantly at this mont.
” [Ding, the system has searched for suitable disciple candidates for you… Six, seven, eight candidates found…]”
There were many Elders with exceptional talents present, and the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator found a large number of suitable disciples.
But Lu Changsheng was also helpless.
The system had found disciple candidates such as Li Changye, Xia Ningxue, Xiao ng’er, Master Mingzhi, Zhuge Changming, among others, all direct disciples of various Sect Leaders. How could Lu Changsheng force them to acknowledge him as their master?
“Master Mingrang, please bestow your guidance.”
Xia Ningxue, with bright eyes and white teeth, a face as beautiful as jade and brows like distant mountains, upon alighting on the Martial Arts Platform, imdiately captivated everyone’s gaze.
If not for Lu Changsheng, who had reincarnated through soul transmigration, then Xia Ningxue would be the youngest Elder present in terms of years of cultivation practice.
“As this concerns the ranking of the Sect, please forgive this monkfor not holding back.”
Master Mingrang knew that the third match was critical for Imasurable Temple and Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s rankings, so he went ah out.
“One Thought, Ice Seal!”
Xia Ningxue circulated her energy, and the temperature around dropped abruptly. Frost spread rapidly in all directions, instantly sealing the entire Martial Arts Platform in ice, the cold was suffocating.
“Immovable King Seal!”
Master Mingrang was greatly startled and hurriedly ford the Dharma Seal. A translucent image of the Immovable King covered him, preventing the spreading ice.
“One Sword Brings Cold Frost!”
Dozens of sword Qi, as long as tens of ters and cold as ice, slashed through the air, freezing it!
“Fourth Layer of Dao Palace Realm!”
“With her cultivation age, how is that possible!”
“This woman is truly heaven’s favored daughter!”
In the instant Xia Ningxue’s sword was drawn, her real cultivation was revealed, shocking the world!
Even Master Mingrang, who had cultivated for over two hundred years, was no match for Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s recently recruited direct disciple!
The Ice Sword Qi struck the Immovable King image, which unexpectedly developed nurous cracks, coated with frost.
“Flowers Chasing the Moon!”
The Longsword left her hand, and a flash of glacial light shot out at extre speed, piercing the golden cracks, passing through the Immovable King image, scratching a sword mark on Master Mingrang’s kasaya before flying back to Xia Ningxue’s hand.
“Hiss…”
The many Elders present inhaled sharply.
If Xia Ningxue had not held back, the Flying Sword would have pierced not the kasaya but Master Mingrang’s chest.
“It is this monk who has lost.”
Master Mingrang shookhis head repeatedly, a wave of fear washing over him. It wasn’t that he had not cultivated diligently, but rather that the other party’s talent was too monstrous.
“Imasurable Temple, ranked second, has actually lost…”
“Could Inquiry Immortal Pavilion surpass Mount Shu in this Six Paths Great Conference to beco the number one among the six Orthodox Sects?” Inquiry Immortal Pavilion won two out of three rounds, defeating Imasurable Temple, becoming Mount Shu’s biggest rival.
“This is not good. Big brother should be able to defeat Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s chief disciple, but the second brother might not be able to beat Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s Xiao ng’er, which ans it will co down to the third match.”
“With Xia Ningxue’s heavenly endownt, our Lu is likely to lose. “According to the two-out-of-three rule, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion will win.” “This is Fairy Pavilion Master’s clever strategy, and under such rules, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion holds all the advantages.”
The complexions of the many Elders of Mount Shu changed.
After so simple calculations by Zhao Wuyan, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion would defeat Mount Shu in the sa manner.
Although Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s chief disciple is not as good as Mount Shu’s Li Changye, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion only needs two victories.
“Big brother, facing Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s Xiao ng’er, I have only a 20% chance of winning. After all, Xiao ng’er is the successor trained by Fairy Pavilion Master. If she hasn’t reached the sixth layer of the Supre Forgetting Love Art, I still have a 70% chance,” said the second brother, Song Wuchuan, with a wry smile.
“Do your best, we still have Lu as our backup,” Li Changye patted Song Wuchuan on the shoulder, his tone casual.
Could it be that everything now relied on Lu Changsheng?
Many of the Mount Shu Elders looked unanimously towards Lu Changsheng, who was resting with his eyes closed.
In the eyes of many Mount Shu Elders, was this not Lu Changsheng giving up on himself?
“Poor Lu, he’s going to end up taking the bla.”
Zhao Wuyan couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Lu Changsheng. It was his first appearance in front of the six Orthodox Sects, and he was up against the illustrious heaven’s favored daughter, Xia Ningxue.
