Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

On the top of a mountain, the white deer pulled the chariot down from the clouds. Lin Bai and Xiao Cangsheng stepped out of the carriage one after another. They both raised their heads and looked at the world in front of them.

In that world, there is an endless mountain range, with green shade covering the sky and lush vegetation. The mountains and forests contain a monstrous aura, and bursts of rays of light bloom above the sky. You can tell it at a glance. This place is a rare paradise in the world!

This is indeed the case. In ancient times, this mountain range was called the ‘Wanqing Mountain Range’, which means ‘eternal green forever’. It is one of the seventy-two famous caves and blessed places in the Chu Kingdom.

Over the long years, more than a dozen powerful sects and families have established their sects here.

Later, after the Tiandi Gate occupied this mountain range, the Wanqing Mountains were renamed the "Tiandi Eternal Mountains", or simply the "Tiandi Mountains".

After the Heaven and Earth Gate occupied this place, they built disciple courtyards in the mountains. It was the outer gate of the Heaven and Earth Gate and was also called the 'Dimen'.

Above the mountains, there are unique and huge suspended islands, forming the "Tianmen" among the gates of heaven and earth.

Lin Bai and Xiao Cangsheng stood on the top of the mountain and looked from a distance. They could see that between the Tianmen and the Earth Gate in the Heaven and Earth Gate, there were white jade stairs with white awns. They spread from the mountains of the Earth Gate and connected all the way. Above the clouds, there are suspended islands connected one after another.

In the Heaven and Earth Sect, the disciple hierarchy is extremely strict.

Disciples of the Earth Gate have no right to enter the Heaven Gate to practice, while disciples of the Heaven Gate can enter the Earth Gate at will.

If we divide the disciples within the Tianshui Sect according to their levels, the Tianmen disciples are similar to the Sanjue disciples, and the Earthmen disciples are similar to the ordinary outer sect disciples.

There are two ranking lists in Tianmen and Earth Gate, called "Heaven Ranking" and "Earth Ranking".

Yu Liantan, the disciple of the Heaven and Earth Sect whom Lin Bai met in the Ancient Secret Territory, was known as a master on the Heavenly Ranking.

"That's where the mountain gate of the Heaven and Earth Gate is!" Xiao Cangsheng said with a smile as he held a book in his hand and looked at the majestic mountain range heading towards it.

"The place where dragons and tigers roost, the place where the gods fall, is really a grand scene!" Lin Bai exclaimed in admiration.

The mountain gate of Tiandimen is quite magnificent, and the mountain gate of Tianshui Sect also occupies a very large area.

In the territory of the five families and seven sects, except for the five major families in the imperial capital and the Kuchan Sect, the mountain gates of the other major sects are all chosen to be in the Paradise of Cave Heaven, where the natural weather is endless.

Xiao Cangsheng said earnestly: "Lin Bai, although I promised Chu Xi to accompany you to the Gate of Heaven and Earth, it does not mean that I will stand on your side."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Lin Bai's eyes flashed with inspiration and he said, "I don't quite understand. Please explain it clearly, senior."

"Haha, little slippery man, just like Chu Xi, he doesn't let go of the rabbit before he sees it." Xiao Cangsheng laughed and scolded, and said: "Okay, I will make it more clear."

"If the Heaven and Earth Sect is using its power to bully others, using the big to bully the small, then I will naturally stand up and speak for you."

"But if your skills are not as good as others, and you are defeated by the Heaven and Earth Sect in the martial arts competition, then I can only stand by and watch."

"do you understand?"

Lin Bai smiled. In fact, he understood the meaning of Xiao Cangsheng before.

To put it simply, Xiao Cangsheng means... I am here to protect you, not to help you bully others.

If your skills are inferior and you die at the Gate of Heaven and Earth, then Xiao Cangsheng will not help you.

This makes sense.

Lin Bai smiled and said: "As the senior said, if there is a warrior above the Taoist realm in Tiandimen who takes action against me, then senior can just take action to save me. If it is a Taoist realm warrior, senior does not need to take action, I will naturally It can be tidied up.”

Xiao Cangsheng said: "I'm afraid even if a warrior with the Taiyi Daoguo realm attacks you, you won't be afraid. After all, if you dare to break through the gate of heaven and earth alone, you naturally have a trump card in your hand."

"You should be afraid of Daluo Daoguo warriors who have surpassed the realm of Taiyi Daoguo, right?"

Lin Bai smiled bitterly and said: "The Heaven and Earth Sect is shameless, and all the Chu warriors know it, so I have to prepare for the worst."

"This is absolutely true. The Tiandi Sect is indeed a shameless sect." Xiao Cangsheng glanced at the distant mountains with disdain, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Let's go and pay homage to the mountain gate."

Xiao Cangsheng and Lin Bai walked side by side down the top of the mountain and towards the Gate of Heaven and Earth.

Xiao Cangsheng raised his hand and put the carriage pulled behind the white deer into his long sleeves, and the white deer slowly followed Xiao Cangsheng.

The two of them walked leisurely towards the gate of Tiandi Gate.

Before arriving at the mountain gate.

The guard disciples guarding the mountain gate immediately shouted to Lin Bai and Xiao Cangsheng: "Stop anyone who comes! The Tiandi Gate is where the mountain gate is, don't break in!"

Xiao Cangsheng stood aside, smiling and saying nothing.

Lin Bai looked solemn. He took a step forward and activated his cultivation power. His voice was like thunder, which spread throughout the Tiandimen Mountain Gate: "Lin Bai, the holy son of Tianshui Sect, came as invited to participate in the Taoist competition between Tiandimen and Tianshui Sect!"

"Holy Son Lin Bai, come and pay homage to the mountain!"

Boom!

Lin Bai's voice was like thunder, exploding out of thin air within the gate of Tiandi Gate.

Lin Bai's voice echoed throughout the mountain range.

All the warriors in the Heaven and Earth Gate heard Lin Bai's voice.

The sound was extremely penetrating and penetrated into Tianmen, causing many Tianmen warriors to look outside the mountain gate.

Swish, brush, brush...

As soon as Lin Bai's voice fell, hundreds of warriors flew out of the Heaven and Earth Gate, mostly warriors in the Taoist realm.

Following this, hundreds more warriors flew in from the Tianmen and landed in the sky above the mountain gate, mainly warriors from the Taiyi Daoguo realm.

Among them, there was Ma Qiuming, an old Taoist with a good nose whom Lin Bai knew.

Ma Qiming was obviously the leader among the elders of the Heaven and Earth Sect. He first glanced at Lin Bai, and a cold light appeared in the depths of his eyes.

Then, Ma Qiuming set his sights on Xiao Cangsheng behind Lin Bai. He hurriedly landed and bowed his hands: "Ma Qiuming, the elder of Tiandimen Taiyi, has met Dean Xiao Cangsheng."

"Dean Xiao Cangsheng has come all the way, and I have not been far away to welcome you. Please forgive me, Dean Xiao Cangsheng."

Xiao Cangsheng smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter. I am also very restful and restless, so I just walked around casually. I happened to meet little friend Lin Bai and heard that he was coming to the Heaven and Earth Gate to participate in the Taoism and Martial Arts Competition, so I came to join in the fun."

“You shouldn’t be unwelcome at the Heaven and Earth Gate, right?”

Ma Qiuming laughed and said, "What are you saying, Dean Xiao Cangsheng? You are here. I am so lucky to have you here. How can I not welcome you?"

"Please, Dean Xiao Cangsheng, follow me into the sect. The sect has already arranged a good residence!"

"please."

Xiao Cangsheng nodded and said, "Little Friend Lin Bai and I hit it off right away. We just need to live in a place that doesn't need to be too good."

The smile on Ma Qiuming's face froze slightly, and then he smiled again: "In that case, then I will follow the wishes of Dean Xiao Cangsheng."

Ma Qiuming said to Lin Bai again: "Holy Son Lin Bai, the time for the martial arts competition is scheduled for five days. Please go in and rest first."

Lin Bai nodded slightly and walked side by side into the Gate of Heaven and Earth with Xiao Cangsheng.

Under the leadership of the disciples of Tiandi Sect, he went to his residence.
