Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

At this moment, the three elders of the Ziyang Hall wore extremely unsightly expressions.

The leading Yu Chang's face was especially gloomy.

Perhaps it was because of the difference in cultivation realm between him and Lu Kangnian that he couldn't accept such a gap.

Or perhaps it was because Lu Kangnian didn't care about the power of the Ziyang Hall at all.

In the end, Lu Kangnian forced the three of them back with a single sword, making him, as an elder of the Ziyang Hall, experience for the first time what it meant to show no mercy.

The huge gap in his state of mind made Yu Chang feel very uncomfortable.

Yu Chang's face was as dark as water, and he coldly snorted, "Humph! Let Lu Kangnian jump around for two more days."

"If he doesn't hand over the murderer in three days, he'll be in for a world of trouble!"

The three of them flashed away, reappearing thousands of feet away.

The Nascent Soul realm cultivator's teleportation ability was something that even Golden Core realm cultivators couldn't catch up to, no matter how hard they tried.

After the three of them left, all the disciples of the Great Xia Sword Sect burst into thunderous cheers!

The earth-shattering cheers soared into the sky!

At this time, many disciples already understood how terrifyingly powerful the Ziyang Hall was in the Northern Region.

The disciples had only heard about the Great Xia Sword Sect's traditions.

And after experiencing many things, they also discovered that the sect placed great importance on its traditions and teachings.

Any disciple who made a mistake, whether inner or outer sect, would be punished.

Some disciples even feared the sect's strict punishment for these minor matters.

But today...

Everyone saw what a sect that thoroughly implemented its teachings looked like!

In the past, they might have thought that the sect was only strict in disciplining its disciples.

And said things like not fearing the powerful and not bowing down when standing on principle.

Perhaps some people thought that the sect was just talking about such things.

But today...

Everyone saw a powerful Sect Leader who forced back three Nascent Soul realm cultivators with his sword.

And the Sect Leader's resounding words!

At this moment, all the sect disciples were flushed with excitement!

All the disciples belonging to the Great Xia Sword Sect shouted in unison at this moment.

"I will never regret joining the Sword Sect in this life!"

Lu Kangnian took the opportunity to say some encouraging words and then told the disciples to do whatever they needed to do.

He disappeared into the sky with the other peak masters.

Standing on the mountain peak, Li Guanqi was also excited, throwing out the Canglang Sword and flying towards Heavenly Thunder Peak.

When he arrived at Li Nanting's courtyard, he found that Second Elder Xu Zhengjie was also there.

When the two elders saw him coming, Xu Zhengjie smiled and said, "Sure enough, he came as soon as you mentioned him."

"Hahaha, Guanqi, come and sit down."

Li Guanqi bowed slightly and then flashed to stand beside the two of them.

Xu Zhengjie reached out to check his aura, and his eyes were full of envy as he whispered.

"This kid's realm is breaking through so fast, yet his foundation is so solid. He's truly a monster."

"But... Gu Ran, are you really going to let that girl participate in the Hundred Sects Tournament?"

Li Guanqi frowned upon hearing this, not expecting that these two old fellows would be discussing the Hundred Sects Tournament instead of what had just happened.

Li Nanting looked up at the young man and said with a light smile, "Do you think we aren't that concerned about the threat from Ziyang Hall?"

Li Guanqi frowned and nodded slightly.

He had personally witnessed how powerful the Ziyang Hall's forces were.

Not to mention anything else, the number of Golden Core realm elders alone was several times greater than that of the Great Xia Sword Sect.

As for the number of Nascent Soul cultivators, he guessed that it was definitely higher than the Great Xia Sword Sect!

The old man picked up his wine cup, took a sip, and turned to look at Li Guanqi, his eyes gleaming as he whispered.

"Don't worry, the Great Xia Sword Sect isn't as weak as you think."

"It's just that the sect has had too few resources in recent years, and there aren't many disciples who can help the sect obtain resources."

"This has led to the sect being trapped in a vicious cycle."

At this point, a look of relief appeared on the faces of the two old men.

"Fortunately, the aptitude of the disciples in recent years has been quite good, and not just you."

"The disciples that the various peaks have recruited in recent years have all had excellent aptitude, but most of these people have already entered the Golden Core realm."

"They also cultivate more diligently, so you rarely see them in the sect on weekdays."

"They only come out of seclusion when some disciples lack points or spirit stones."

Hearing this, Li Guanqi felt a lot more relieved, after all, he was also afraid that the Ziyang Hall would keep pursuing this matter.

Xu Zhengjie put down his wine cup and said with a light smile, "Don't worry, although this matter started because of you, it's definitely not just because of you."

"For Zheng Hao, killing you is just a side effect of his purpose."

"Moreover... the Great Xia Sword Sect, as your master said, is not as simple as it seems on the surface."

After chatting for a while, Xu Zhengjie suddenly had the idea to guide Li Guanqi.

Then the three of them came to the martial arts field of Tianzhu Peak.

Xu Zhengjie waved his sleeve and said with a calm expression.

"Guanqi, today I, the old man, will give you some guidance."

This was the first time Li Guanqi had ever sparred with someone at the elder level, so his face was very solemn.

He bowed and said, "Thank you, Second Elder, for your guidance!"

However, after the battle began, Xu Zhengjie, who had suppressed his realm to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, gradually changed from being careless to having an extremely solemn expression.

In the end, he turned to Li Nanting and cursed, "What are you worrying about! Come and help me, I can't beat this kid even with my realm suppressed!"

Li Nanting, who had been watching, instantly flashed into the field, and with a wave of his hand, a refined iron sword flew into his hand!

In an instant, three figures flashed, turned, and moved in the martial arts field, and sword lights flickered.

As the battle became more and more intense, Li Guanqi, with one person and one sword, actually only slightly fell into a disadvantage against the two of them!

Half an hour later, both old men had extremely solemn expressions on their faces.

Xu Zhengjie had been a little jealous that he hadn't taken Li Guanqi into his sect.

This time, he also wanted to test his strength to see how it was, after all, there were many casualties in the Hundred Sects Tournament.

But this test made both of them have extremely solemn expressions.

Xu Zhengjie nudged Li Nanting beside him and frowned, transmitting his voice, "How did you teach such a monster!"

"His combat experience and the intuition of his fighting instincts are the strongest I've ever seen!"

However, Li Nanting, who also had a solemn expression, turned to look at Li Guanqi.

He coughed a few times and pretended to be profound, saying, "It cannot be spoken, it cannot be spoken~".

Xu Zhengjie couldn't figure out how Li Nanting had taught him even after he left.

However, Li Nanting also had a bitter look on his face after he left.

Although he usually taught Li Guanqi a lot, he was very clear in his heart.

In terms of the things he taught alone, it was impossible for Li Guanqi to reach his current level.

His current strength gave Li Nanting an illusion that he was too strong!

"If he goes to participate in the Hundred Sects Tournament, perhaps he can really lead the Great Xia Sword Sect to get an unprecedented ranking!!"

However, he didn't intend to ask too much about Li Guanqi's current situation.

After all, after stepping into the path of immortality, even a Qi training realm cultivator could get a heaven-defying opportunity.

Moreover, he had always had a kind of inexplicable awe for Li Guanqi's grandfather, whom he had never met.

He didn't think that the mysterious old man hadn't left any opportunities for Li Guanqi.
