Upon receiving the message from the Blood Demon Sect, Fang Xiandao, the sect leader of the Feathered Ascension Sect, immediately dispatched men to march forcefully northward.

Firstly, to rescue their pawn, the Blood Demon Sect, in the Northern Xuan Region; and secondly, to destroy the Wuji Sword Sect, currently the strongest sect in the Northern Xuan Region, so as to facilitate their expansion of their own power into the Northern Xuan Region.

To be on the safe side, he personally invited a Nascent Soul Ancestor, another peerless expert, and two Void Dao Perfection experts, totaling eleven experts, to the Blood Demon Sect.

Such an extravagant lineup made the other elders in the sect feel that Fang Xiandao was making a mountain out of a molehill.

After the destruction of the Northern Profound Sect, the other sects in the Northern Profound Domain were no longer taken seriously by them.

If it weren't for the Heavenly Star Sect and the Bull Demon Sect in the Southern True Domain acting as a check and balance, their Feathered Ascension Sect would have already openly marched north and taken over the Northern Profound Domain.

To send such a force to deal with a mere Wuji Sword Sect, wouldn't the sect leader ridicule them if the Tianchen and Niumo sects found out?

But even with such a lineup, after encountering Ning Qi, the Nascent Soul Realm giant was reduced to ashes and exploded like fireworks before everyone's eyes!

It was as if such a person had never existed in the world.

Outside the Blood Demon Sect.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the orderly fireworks exploding in the sky, almost forgetting to breathe.

Their gazes shifted to Ning Qi, filled with deep awe.

Ning Qi's power was many times stronger than that of the former Northern Profound Upper Sect. He directly killed the Integration Realm cultivator who had come from the Feathered Ascension Upper Sect, completely ignoring the foundation left by the Feathered Ascension Upper Sect.

They knew that although the Northern Profound Sect was powerful, it would never do such a thing.

The sects that were watching were somewhat better off.

The members of the Blood Demon Sect were utterly devastated, their faces turning deathly pale as if they had lost too much blood.

Some people even knelt down on the ground with a thud, their despair emanating from the depths of their hearts.

The remaining eleven powerful figures of the Feathered Ascension Sect stared wide-eyed at the sky, utterly incredulous.

Why was it Old Ancestor Ye Wuxin who died?

Ning Qi just broke through to the Integration Realm, didn't he?

The ancestor was at the Integrated Body Late Stage, so how could Ning Qi possibly kill Ancestor Ye Wuxin?

The members of the Feathered Ascension Sect simply refused to believe this result!

It's unbelievable that the two fought for less than five rounds from their first meeting to their first encounter. Not only was the patriarch constantly being suppressed by Ning Qi, but he was also killed by Ning Qi without even having the power to retaliate.

If they had arrived earlier and witnessed Ning Qi's ten-thousand-meter Sword-Ray shattering the Blood Demon Sect's grand formation, they might have been able to accept it more easily.

After all, even though they are both at the Integration Realm, their foundations are different.

Ultimately, even the most powerful beings in the Integration Realm progressed through the stages of the Primordial Spirit Realm and the Void Dao Realm.

Breaking through a barrier depends on individual fortuitous opportunity. Not every cultivator reaches the limit of each realm before breaking through. Most cultivators in the Spirit Realm can only be said to have barely met the requirements for a breakthrough.

The criteria for determining the late stage of the Void Dao Realm is simply to condense at least five ten-zhang-long chains of divine rules.

To advance to the Integration Realm, a typical cultivator at the Perfection the Void Dao Realm only needs to condense about thirty feet, barely a hundred meters, ten chains of divine rules.

Therefore, if such standards are used to advance to the Integration Realm, the gap between Integration Realm masters will be enormous.

If the people from the Feathered Ascension Sect had arrived earlier and seen Ning Qi's several ten-thousand-meter-long chains of divine rules, Ye Wuxin probably wouldn't have been so arrogant.

As for the Wuji Sword Sect members behind Ning Qi, they were equally shocked, but their faces showed more joy.

Over the past few decades, everyone has come to deeply respect Ning Qi, knowing that Ning Qi would never do anything without being certain of success.

When they came to destroy the Blood Demon Sect, everyone naturally expected that the Feathered Ascension Sect would send people, and might even dispatch a Nascent Soul Realm expert.

But no one expected that Ning Qi would kill the opponent's Fusion Realm expert in just a few moves—that's a low-level expert killing a high-level one!

The fireworks in the sky have faded.

Ning Qi said to the people behind him, "The rest are yours. Can you take them down?"

Qin Minghao was the first to respond, "Yes!"

Ning Qi also brought fifteen Void Dao experts with him this time, ten of whom were the original ten True Disciple.

All ten are future pillars of the Wuji Sword Sect. Over the years, they have cultivated together and their teamwork has become unparalleled.

Moreover, Ning Qi personally preached the Dao and passed down many teachings.

They may not be as good as Ning Qi was back then, but each of them is already far stronger than ordinary Void Realm cultivators!

Fifteen powerful figures and fifty True Disciple from the Wuji Sword Sect emerged from behind Ning Qi, heading straight for the remaining members of the Blood Demon Sect and the Feathered Ascension Sect.

They still have twenty-six powerful figures left on their side, and over a hundred True Disciple.

But the Wuji Sword Sect members were like they'd been injected with adrenaline; they showed no fear even though the enemy outnumbered them.

Ning Qi stood with his hands behind his back high in the air, showing no intention of making another move.

Even with another peerless expert on the other side, plus a Void Path Perfection cultivator from the Blood Demon Sect, making a total of three Void Path Perfection.

Seeing the disciples of the Wuji Sword Sect arrive, the people from the Yuhua Upper Sect and the Blood Demon Upper Sect also reacted.

However, that peerless expert and the three Void Dao Perfection experts focused most of their attention on Ning Qi.

Little did they know, Ning Qi had no intention of making a move at all.

Among the people of the Wuji Sword Sect, a figure suddenly transformed into a two-hundred-foot giant, none other than Wang Ye, who cultivated the Three-Headed Six- Military Sha Technique.

Now, each of his six arms wields a different magical treasure.

It emits six-colored light, along with six corresponding rules.

Wang Ye cultivated according to Ning Qi's perfected method, emphasizing both military force and law, and doing both in parallel.

He was originally a body-refining cultivator with mediocre talent in magic, but he couldn't withstand Ning Qi's decades of feeding and nurturing.

The method passed down by Ning Qi is flawless; as long as they follow it, they will never make a mistake.

Ning Qi then took out a single-color rule jade that was suitable for everyone, allowing even those with mediocre talent to quickly master and transform their talents.

Ning Qi focused on cultivating ten True Disciple, whose power was terrifying as soon as they made their move!

Wang Ye brandished his six spiritual treasures and took the lead, instantly immobilizing the three powerful opponents.

As he swung his weapon, Qin Minghao and Huo Mingguang, working together, instantly killed the three powerful figures opposite him.

Jiang Qingxue's graceful figure appeared in the air, her sword dancing in her hand, and countless snowflakes fell from the void.

The people opposite stared at the heavy snowfall, and many of them seemed momentarily dazed.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Qingxue thrust out her sword again, directly killing a late-stage Void Dao Realm expert.

The sword in Luo Zhan's hand resembled both a spear and a sword, looking extremely strange.

His figure streaked across the sky, instantly unleashing countless sword shadows.

In the void, extremely sharp Sword Dao and spear rules emerged, faintly merging into one, instantly killing a late-stage powerhouse who had no time to dodge, his blood splattering across the sky.

The ten True Disciple each instantly killed one person upon making their first move.

The other five powerful beings worked together to kill three of them as well.

The opposing side had barely recovered when they realized that they only had thirteen powerful warriors left on their side!

Everyone was shocked.

Before this, everyone believed that the strength of the Wuji Sword Sect rested entirely on Ning Qi.

In the past, they only witnessed Ning Qi's sudden emergence and how he suppressed all the heroes. They could only sigh that the Wuji Sword Sect was lucky to have recruited such a rare talent, one that only appears once every million years.

But now that the others from the Wuji Sword Sect have made their move, it has shattered everyone's previous understanding.

It turns out that the Wuji Sword Sect not only has Ning Qi, but its disciples are also all exceptionally talented.

When everyone compared the powerful figures of the Wuji Sword Sect with those of their own sects, they were immediately filled with despair, realizing that each of them was among the top figures in their own sects.

What was even more unacceptable to everyone was that the fluctuations emanating from Qin Minghao and the others indicated they were only at the mid-stage of the Void Dao realm.

Yet they could kill late-stage Void Realm cultivators like weeds, and each of them could fight beyond their level!

"The Wuji Sword Sect has gathered all the talents in the world into one sect!" Many people exclaimed in shock.

The fifteen powerful figures of the Wuji Sword Sect made their move once again.

The peerless experts and three Void Dao Perfection cultivators from the Feathered Blood Demon and Feathered Blood Demon sects on the other side had completely recovered their senses. The four of them instantly communicated and reached a consensus.

"As long as Ning Qi is alive, we are doomed. We might as well take a couple more down with us before we die. It's not a bad deal, and it will also reduce potential enemies for the Feathered Ascension Sect!"

The moment the fifteen powerful figures of the Wuji Sword Sect made their move, the four top-tier powerful figures on the opposing side blocked their attack.

They emerged from the void, each of them radiating an aura of earth-shattering power, as if they were determined to die and had unleashed all their potential.

The powerful beings who were saved by the four men all showed expressions of gratitude. They stared at the four men's backs, their eyes gleaming, and began to follow suit.

Since there's no chance of survival, let's abandon everything and take a few people down with us!

In an instant, the void at the center of the battle seemed to be completely thrown into chaos by the energy emanating from everyone.

Countless chains of divine rules emerged from the void, densely covering the entire sky like a chaotic net.

Various colored lights shimmered around everyone, and outside the light, a Blood Qi was spreading.

They pushed their Primordial Spirit to its limit, condensing the strongest power of rules they had ever possessed, and even burning their own essence, energy, and spirit to unleash their strongest attack.

The Blood Qi emanating from the powerful figures of the Blood Demon Sect was like burning blood fire, and their skin was burned to a dark red.

The powerful figures of the Feathered Ascension Sect manifested various feathered abilities, appearing as birds, beasts, humans, or immortals.

Behind them, the hundred True Disciple also activated their Primordial Spirit, unleashing their strongest attacks of their lives, merging them into the attack of the powerful being in front of them.

Qin Minghao and the other fifteen people exchanged glances, including the True Disciple behind them, and instantly understood what kind of attack they should use to counter the desperate attack from the other side.

They were scattered throughout the void, seemingly chaotic, but in reality, their auras were faintly connected.

The net of rules condensed by the Feathered Blood Demon and Feathered Blood Demon sects in the void first enveloped the fifteen people.

Qin Minghao and the others simultaneously drew their swords and shouted, "Ten Thousand Swords Slash Through the Dao!"

Although the members of the Wuji Sword Sect cultivate in different ways, their methods all originate from Ning Qi and share commonalities.

Their auras merged together, forming an impenetrable wall, and each of them unleashed a burst of sword light, heading towards the attacks coming from the Feathered Blood Demon Sect and the Ascension Blood Demon Sect!

The onlookers saw the world suddenly brighten, and the various lights from the Feathered Blood Demon Sect and the Boundless Sword Sect were chaotic and disordered, while the various sword lights from the Boundless Sword Sect merged together and became one color.

The sword light, like a dragon, roared and charged towards the members of the Blood Demon Sect.

"Kill!"

The peerless powerhouse opposite them, along with three Void Dao Perfection cultivators, shouted themselves hoarse, their bodies radiating boundless light, like bright stars appearing in the daytime void.

The two attacks eventually collided!

The void was instantly torn apart at the point of impact, with a thunderous roar that echoed across the surrounding area!

The onlookers watched intently as the battle raged on. Then, the myriad swords coalesced into a magnificent sword light, severing all the divine chains of rules between the Feathered Blood Demon and the Ascension Sects, and slashing towards everyone on the opposing side.

Sword light pierced through the bodies of everyone from the Feathered Blood Demon Sect and the Ascension Blood Demon Sect, causing the void to collapse and form a massive black hole that instantly annihilated everyone from both sects, burying them within it!

Rumble!

It took a long time for that void black hole to be repaired to its original state. The black hole disappeared, and there was nothing left inside.

On the Wuji Sword Sect's side, everyone was suspended in the air, panting heavily.

But everyone remained incredibly excited; they did it!

Having received the kindness of his sect leader and senior brother, he has cultivated diligently for decades. He will remain silent until he makes a name for himself, and then he will astound the world!

When the onlookers saw the repaired void black hole, they were all terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.

The Wuji Sword Sect was stronger than they had imagined, even surpassing the limits of their imagination.

In the battle between the three sects, their assumption was that the Wuji Sword Sect would suffer equal casualties to the other two sects.

This already shows they think highly of the Wuji Sword Sect.

However, it was only then that everyone realized that the Wuji Sword Sect not only had the ability to fight against the combined forces of the two sects, but also the ability to annihilate all of the opposing sects without losing a single member of its own!

"Has anyone ever seen such a powerful battle formation?" someone murmured.

Everyone shook their heads.

This formation was simultaneously cast by cultivators from two different realms, and it integrated attacks of different attributes from everyone into one. Even if it were Formation passed down by an immortal, they would believe it.

"We all know the strength of the Wuji Sword Sect before; their Wuji Sword Manual could never achieve this. Why has their strength changed so much?"

Some people racked their brains trying to figure out the key to it.

"Is there even a question? It must be the changes brought about by Sect Master Ning. The Wuji Sword Sect hasn't changed much in hundreds of thousands of years. It was only after Sect Master Ning's birth that the Wuji Sword Sect was propelled to such a terrifying height!"

Upon hearing this, no one could refute it; they could only believe it.

So their gazes returned to the white-clad figure standing with his hands behind his back.

Sunlight streamed down upon him, making his white robes shine with an ethereal brilliance, as if he were a celestial being descended to earth.

May I ask Heaven, is the person before me an immortal?

Everyone's eyes flickered, their emotions fluctuating.

They suddenly realized that, under the light of that figure, they could only look up at the Wuji Sword Sect.

Even sects that had no conflict with the Wuji Sword Sect were acting this way among the onlookers.

Of the five sects that had clashed, the cultivators from the three sects that apologized first wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, they resolved the conflict with the Wuji Sword Sect in a timely manner.

The Wuliang Sect, which only surrendered after three days, sent their cultivators trembling as they watched the battle.

They almost met the same fate as the Blood Demon Sect!

Fortunately, the sect leader personally came to their door in the end, which averted a disaster.

Now that the Blood Demon Sect has been destroyed and all those from the Feathered Ascension Sect who came to help have been killed, everything has settled down.

Ning Qi suddenly turned around, his indifferent eyes sweeping over the crowd.

Wherever his gaze fell, everyone bowed their heads.

Finally, Ning Qi's gaze fell upon the cultivators from the Boundless Sect present.

Those cultivators seemed unable to withstand the pressure any longer and fell to the ground from the sky.

They quickly got to their feet and shouted:

"The Five Elements Sword Master, Bei Xuan Wushuang, my Boundless Sect willingly submits!"

Everyone was taken aback by what they heard.

After a cultivator enters the Integration Realm, they are generally called a Giant, but those who Perfection their cultivation can be called a Venerable.

The people of the Boundless Sect called Ning Qi the Five Elements Sword Master because they feared Ning Qi.

Ning Qi is currently only at the early stage of the Integration Realm, and there is still a long way to go before he reaches Perfection. However, given that he can easily kill Ye Wuxin, who Integrated Body Late Stage Realm, he is worthy of the title of Sword Master!

What dared anyone say anything then?

Some quick-witted people also shouted out.

In an instant, everyone responded and unanimously called Ning Qi the Five Elements Sword Master.

The members of the Wuji Sword Sect were all extremely excited.

"You all better behave yourselves!"

Ning Qi said calmly, withdrawing his gaze from the crowd, and then addressed the members of the Wuji Sword Sect:

"Let's go back to our clan."

"Yes!"

The members of the Wuji Sword Sect vanished instantly, transforming into Sword Dao light that flew north towards the location of the Wuji Sword Sect.

Only after their figures disappeared from sight did the others dare to leave.

Information about the Wuji Sword Sect spread throughout the entire Northern Xuan Region in an instant. Whether it was Ning Qi or the sect's True Disciple, everyone was included in the intelligence, without any omissions.

The repercussions of this incident continued to escalate, causing a stir throughout the entire Northern Xuan Region.

All sects know that from now on, the Northern Profound Domain will be the era of the Wuji Sword Sect's unparalleled dominance, surpassing all other sects.

Of course, even so, there are still sects that are not optimistic about the future of the Wuji Sword Sect.

After all, the Southern True Domain is close to the Northern Profound Domain, and they felt that the Wuji Sword Sect's decisive killing of the Feathered Ascension Sect members was unwise.

The Feathered Ascension Sect still has two Integration Realm cultivators remaining, one in the late stage and the other a Perfection Venerable, making it stronger than the former Northern Profound Sect.

In the Southern True Domain, there are also the Heavenly Star Sect and the Bull Demon Sect. Recently, the Heavenly Star Sect has been getting quite close to the Feathered Ascension Sect.

However, most sects believe that as long as Ning Qi is there, even if they are not as good as he is now, they will eventually surpass the Southern True Domain, and it won't be too long.

The sects of the Northern Profound Domain have always been looked down upon by the sects of the Southern True Domain. Now that a celestial being like Ning Qi has emerged, they naturally lean more towards Ning Qi.

At this time, only eight of the former ten great sects of the Northern Xuan Region remained.

As the echoes of that battle faded, the seven major sects and many smaller sects all went to the Wuji Sword Sect to offer their congratulations.

They came to us and pledged allegiance, willing to acknowledge the Wuji Sword Sect as the overlord of the Northern Xuan Region and regard Ning Qi as its leader.

At the same time, the various sects also brought many congratulatory gifts.

Whether it's the Spirit Vein, the land, the harvest of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, or various industries.

Ning Qi asked Vice Sect Master Cang Wanhe to handle the matter, and Cang Wanhe happily accepted the task, even throwing a grand celebration where everyone enjoyed themselves.

Juxianlou.

It was once the property of the Northern Profound Sect, but now it has been transferred to the hands of the Limitless Sword Sect.

On this day, Ning Qi left the Wuji Sword Sect and returned to the Juxian Tower.

The Juxianlou Restaurant was brightly lit and more prosperous than ever before.

With the Wuji Sword Sect behind them, no one in the Northern Xuan Region dares to cause trouble within their territory.

Inside the largest private room, several people were already waiting for Ning Qi to arrive.

Ning Qi pushed open the door to the private room and walked in, then looked at everyone.

Those gathered here were all people from the True Martial who had been reborn in the Northern Profound Domain. Ning Qi chose to bring those who had stepped into the Void Dao Realm.

Two figures stood out the most.

One is the son of the sect leader of Luo Tian Shang Sect, namely Zhuang Chen.

Zhuang Chen possessed an ethereal air, and now he was becoming increasingly elegant. Despite his plump and seemingly harmless appearance, he exuded a distinct aura of authority.

If his father controls 80% of the Luo Tian Sect, then he controls 70%.

First, there was the formation master of the Qingxia Upper Formation, namely the Bai Shan True Person.

This old Daoist priest from Bai Shan is living a carefree life now. Perhaps he came in too much of a hurry, because there is still a lip print on his face.

However, none of them said it explicitly.

They wanted to wait until Ning Qi arrived so Ning Qi could meet him.

Sure enough, Ning Qi looked at True Person Bai Shan and teased, "Old Daoist Bai Shan, have you suddenly come back to life?"

True Person Bai Shan was taken aback, not understanding what Ning Qi was talking about.

Laughter erupted continuously from the private room; they had been holding it in for so long and could finally let loose.

True Person Bai Shan then realized what everyone was laughing at. He stretched out his right hand, wiped his face, and then held it in front of his eyes.

Suddenly, a bright red color appeared in my palm, extremely dazzling.

Although he was now a somewhat sleazy-looking young man in plain clothes, he still couldn't help but blush and spat:

"Fine, so you made me wear such a glamorous look until the Realm Lord arrived, only to expose my true colors then? Do you have any conscience at all?"

The crowd continued to laugh.

Ning Qi teased, "What, you have some good news and didn't even tell me? We would definitely come to congratulate you on your wedding."

True Person Bai Shan was in great distress, and only then did he reply:

"Hey, stop making fun of me. I'm totally impressed by our Qingxia Sect Master and his daughter."

"Oh, tell me more."

True Person Bai Shan continued:

"Damn it, that sect leader saw my amazing talent and that his daughter had fallen for me, so he insisted that I become his son-in-law."

"I didn't want to, but that sect leader secretly instructed his daughter, saying that if she couldn't have him, she should use drugs. I'm so annoyed by the two of them."

Upon hearing this, everyone laughed even louder.

"Why don't you just accept it?"

"Accept my ass! That woman is as fat as a pig. Didn't you see how big and thick the lip print she left was? I'd rather kill myself than submit to her."

"That's easy. It's extremely simple for us cultivators to change our appearance. You can just have the sect leader's daughter change her looks."

True Person Bai Shan shook his head like a rattle drum.

"No, the sect leader is mourning his deceased wife and said that his daughter looks extremely like her, so he forbids her from changing her appearance. In addition, everyone in the sect deceived his daughter, saying that she is as beautiful as Heavenly Immortal, and she believed it. She insists that I have bad taste!"

True Person Bai Shan held Ning Qi's hand tightly, pleading:

"Young Ning, come and fight your way here. This old Daoist will activate the sect's protective formation for you. Anyway, the Luo Tian Sect now treats you like a god, even more so than they treat their own ancestor."

Ning Qi smiled.

After some casual conversation, the group talked about many gossips, such as those about True Person Bai Shan, and about Ning Qi's various titles.

Immortal Seed, Ning's True Disciple, Ning's Fusion, Ning's One Sword, Five Elements Sword Master...

Having not gathered for many years, the group joked and teased each other, finding the banter in this other world especially heartwarming.

Finally, everyone returned to the main topic.

They spoke of a war in the spirit world, in which all sects were preparing for battle.

One of the people present belonged to a sect that was extremely adept at gathering information, and he brought news that no one else knew.

"Lord of the Realm, we have learned of the hostile worlds of the Mountain and Sea Realm."

Everyone looked at him.

Ning Qi laughed and said, "After several rounds of drinks and five dishes, my Juxianlou restaurant is almost bankrupt from all the food! Are you still keeping me in suspense?"

Everyone laughed again.

The man finally said, "Its name is the Vast Realm, and its strength is comparable to the Mountain and Sea Realm, but its internal world seems to be more stable."
