One is a cultivator at the Layer Nine Perfection.
One is a powerful Earth Immortal at the late stage of the third rank.
The difference is just too huge!
Upon hearing those words from Flame Saber Duan He, almost no cultivator believed that Lin Xuankong could survive peacefully in the future!
After all, a powerful Earth Immortal at the late stage of the third rank would have far too many methods at their disposal to secretly kill a cultivator at the Layer Nine Perfection!
now,
The Lin Family Seven Tigers, who have always Lin Xuankong,
Led by Li Xiaohu, they quickly flew towards Lin Xuankong.
After the seven people flew to Lin Xuankong's side, they each gripped the magical artifacts at their waists and looked at Flame Saber Duan He with icy expressions.
They all possessed Early Stage Immortal Artifact gifted by Lin Xuankong, and each had four of them. This gave the seven of them enough power to suppress and defeat a Early Earth Immortal at the Layer Nine Perfection! But right now, they were facing a powerful Earth Immortal at the late third grade!
However, none of the seven showed any fear on their faces, nor did any of them flinch!
At the same time, the Third Princess Xiao Ying'er floated to Lin Xuankong's side. She silently stopped beside Lin Xuankong, raised her hand and grabbed Lin Xuankong's right hand, then looked at Flame Saber Duan He with a firm expression!
This scene,
In the eyes of the countless cultivators watching,
Everyone couldn't help but feel some emotion in their hearts, and they started talking in low voices.
"I never imagined that this Mu Shiba would not only be far stronger than others of the same level, but also have so many brothers willing to live and die together! Facing an opponent at the late stage of the third rank, he actually dared to stand up and fight alongside him, tsk tsk!"
"Yes, it is said that cultivators only need to pursue great power to their own benefit and do not need to care about worldly relationships. But even Ninth-grade Earth Immortal cannot avoid the exhaustion of lifespan. If we cultivators can obtain a few close brothers like these on our cultivation journey, then our lives will not have been in vain!"
"Alas, it's easy to say. In this world, most people are willing to add flowers to brocade, but how many are willing to offer charcoal in the snow, let alone share life and death with you!"
Even husbands and wives will abandon each other when disaster strikes, let alone friends and brothers!
"This Mu Shiba has clearly offended a late-stage third-rank Earth Immortal, yet so many of his brothers have stepped forward to help him in his time of crisis. That's quite a strange thing!"
Amidst everyone's sighs,
As the Lin Family Seven Tigers and the Third Princess Xiao Ying'er flew towards them, Duan He, wielding the Flame Saber Duan He, grew even more somber, his already icy expression darkening.
His gaze swept across Li Xiaohu and the others' faces, his voice chillingly cold, "Fine, fine, since you're willing to die with this Mu Shiba, when I settle accounts in the future, I will certainly not overlook any of you, and I will not let any of you go!"
Just then,
High in the sky, amidst the clouds,
Suddenly, the voice of Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er rang out.
"Fellow Daoist Duan, today is the Disciple Recruitment Competition Ceremony by my Crane Immortal Sect."
Since it's a competition to recruit disciples, casualties are inevitable when many cultivators clash.
By threatening Mu Shiba like this, aren't you showing a bit of disrespect to my Crane Immortal Sect?
"If every cultivator participating in the competition is threatened and unable to fight at full strength, then what's the point of holding the Crane Immortal Sect's Disciple Recruitment Competition Ceremony?"
At this moment, Qu Qiao'er, who always respectfully addressed Flame Saber Duan He as Senior Brother Duan, suddenly changed her address to Fellow Daoist Duan, clearly dissatisfied with Flame Saber Duan He's remarks!
While the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect is indeed powerful, this is, after all, the territory of the Crane Immortal Sect. If we allow Flame Saber Duan He to act arrogantly here without any intervention, the reputation of the Crane Immortal Sect will likely be looked down upon by many cultivators in the future!
Upon hearing this, Flame Saber Duan He, flickered his eyes.
His face held a fierce expression as he looked up at Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er.
"Fellow Daoist Qu, of course I know that this is the Crane Immortal Sect's Disciple Recruitment Competition Ceremony. That's why I'm allowing this Mu Shiba to continue living until he leaves this place!"
What? When did the Crane Immortal Sect Crane Immortal Sect so arrogant? Do you think I'd be threatened by you just because I killed a cultivator who doesn't belong to your sect?
Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er met Flame Saber Duan He He's gaze with her eyes. A smile played on her lips, but her eyes held a chilling glint.
"If this Mu Shiba passes the remaining rounds of the competition and becomes a disciple of my Crane Immortal Sect, what will Fellow Daoist Duan do then?"
Upon hearing this, Flame Saber Duan He, paused in surprise.
After a few breaths of silence, a ruthless glint appeared in his eyes, and he let out a cold laugh.
"Given the prestigious reputation of the Crane Immortal Sect, I certainly wouldn't openly kill a disciple of the Crane Immortal Sect!"
Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er's face turned cold.
If he won't kill them openly, then he's going to assassinate the disciples of the Crane Immortal Sect? This Flame Saber Duan He is far too arrogant!
She was about to start scolding
Sect Master Li of the Crane Immortal Sect, raised his head slightly, and Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er immediately shut her mouth and then coldly stared at Flame Saber Duan He.
Sect Master Li smiled and glanced at Flame Saber Duan He, before his gaze fell upon Lin Xuankong.
He said softly:
"This young Daoist Mu is truly astonishing in both strength and methods."
I am Li Daozuo, the leader of the Crane Immortal Sect.
I have been cultivating for 3,500 years, but in these 3,500 years, I have only seen one genius cultivator in the Mortal Transformation Realm within the Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect of the Central Divine Dynasty. Relying on his powerful True Qi far exceeding that of ordinary cultivators, his unparalleled talent, and two Second Grade Immortal Artifact, he defeated five Early Earth Immortal!
Later, that genius cultivator even became one of the Four Great Heavenly Kings of the Divine Dynasty Divine Dynasty Immortal Sect of the Central Divine Dynasty.
He became a powerful figure in the Central Divine Dynasty, second only to the Ninth-Rank Divine Lord, and his story was widely praised by the many Earth Immortals of the Seventy-Two Immortal Sects of the Central Divine Dynasty!
Unexpectedly, more than two thousand years later,
The emergence of such an amazing cultivator in Crane Immortal City in the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty is truly a blessing for Crane Immortal City and for the Western Region of the Central Divine Dynasty!
Surely, after today's Disciple Recruitment Competition Ceremony, Fellow Daoist Mu's reputation will immediately spread throughout Crane Immortal City, throughout the Western Regions, and throughout countless cultivator dynasties!
but,
There's something I'm quite curious about.
"May I ask Fellow Daoist Mu for some guidance?"
After Sect Master Li said this,
Flame Saber Duan He, whose face had been filled with murderous intent, couldn't help but change his expression.
The Sect Master Li of the Crane Immortal Sect, Li, holds an extremely high position, comparable to the headmaster of the Fire Spirit Immortal Sect, and his strength is far beyond what I can match! Even thirty of myself wouldn't be able to last ten breaths against him!
If I were to continue to stubbornly insist on killing Mu Shiba Mu Shiba, given how highly Sect Master Li praised him, Sect Master Li would likely humiliate me and force me out of Crane Immortal City with a mere wave of his hand!
With this thought in mind, even though Flame Saber Duan He was extremely frustrated, he still dared not say anything more!
Lin Xuankong, however, smiled after hearing Sect Master Li's words. He cupped his hands towards Sect Master Li of the Crane Immortal Sect above the clouds, saying, " Mu Shiba Sect Master Li's praise is truly undeserved! Sect Master Li, please feel free to ask any questions you may have. I will answer everything Mu Shiba know!"
At this moment, Lin Xuankong was quite confident. He had already guessed what the Sect Master Li of the Crane Immortal Sect wanted to ask.
