Five Elements Sect Pays a Visit
The Landing Money Merchant Guild's airship glided through the clouds, passing through a layer of clouds, where guests were sunbathing on the deck, enjoying this moment of tranquility.
At that moment, a huge shadow fell over the guests.
They looked up in surprise and found an exceptionally large airship overhead.
The Landing Money Merchant Guild's airship was already quite large, but compared to this airship, it was as small as an infant.
The exterior of this airship is adorned with colorful gemstones, which glitter and shine, clearly indicating that it is no ordinary object.
"Whose flying boat is this?" people whispered among themselves, having never seen such a huge flying boat before.
A discerning person noticed. "Look at the markings on the side of the flying boat; this is the Five Elements Sect's flying boat!"
"The Five Elements Sect?"
People have only heard of the Five Elements Sect, but rarely have they seen them make an appearance, especially not in such a grand manner.
"Could it be that some peerless demon has appeared, requiring the elders of the Five Elements Sect to go together and eliminate it?"
In the cultivation world, the Five Elements Sect's reputation is far superior to that of the Ask Dao Sect Seeking Sect.
"Judging by the direction, are they heading towards the Ask Dao Sect?"
"So, should we go to eliminate the Great Demon, or visit the Ask Dao Sect?"
"Our purpose in coming here is to wipe out those demons and monsters from the Ask Dao Sect and let them know the power of my Five Elements Sect!"
On the Five Elements Sect's flying boat, Sect Master Qiu Jin'an encouraged everyone. "Last time, I made a mistake in my decision. I forgot that Yun Zhi is the disciple of the Silent Daoist and is qualified to participate, so our Five Elements Sect suffered a small defeat!"
"But this time it's different. I've found out that the Silent Daoist has disappeared, Yun Zhi has officially become the acting Sect Master. She can be considered my peer, and will no longer participate in activities that are only for disciples!"
"This is an opportunity! Without Yun Zhi's threat, the mere Ask Dao Sect is nothing!"
"We've endured hardship and bided our time, all for today's victory, for the honor of the Five Elements Sect!"
Qiu Jin'an was determined to avenge his previous humiliation. In order to show off in front of the Ask Dao Sect, he even brought the sect's most luxurious flying boat to show off to them.
On the airship, the brilliant disciples listened to Qiu Jin'an's speech, their eyes igniting with the flames of competition.
They were all geniuses carefully selected by the Five Elements Sect, each with their own strengths and unique insights into the Five Elements Law Technique, making them rare rivals among their peers.
They had been taught by their elders that when going down the mountain to do missions, they should try not to deal with people from the Ask Dao Sect were very difficult to deal with and could not be understood by common sense.
Young people are all rebellious. Now that they finally have the chance to fight against the Ask Dao Sect Seeking Sect, they must shine brightly and show the Ask Dao Sect what a genius is.
Among them were disciples who had participated in the previous exchange, but only Yun Zhi had made a move that time, which did not demonstrate the overall strength of the Ask Dao Sect. They knew very little about the Ask Dao Sect and only felt that this was an opportunity to showcase their abilities.
A bright-eyed young girl stared intently at Qiu Jin'an, her gaze burning. She clenched her fist and shouted, "For the honor of the Five Elements Sect!"
The girl's words were like a pebble dropped into a calm lake, creating ripples that resonated with the disciples of the Five Elements Sect.
"For the honor of the Five Elements Sect!"
"For the honor of the Five Elements Sect!"
Qiu Jinan's expression changed drastically when he saw the girl. "Why are you here? You weren't on the visitor list!"
The girl feigned anger. "Why can't I come? You finally have a chance to come to the Ask Dao Sect, and you didn't even invite me to such a fun event!"
"How can coming to the Ask Dao Sect be described as fun? It should be dangerous!" Qiu Jin'an corrected the girl's logical error.
Some of the younger disciples, unfamiliar with the girl, whispered to their senior brothers, "Senior brother, who is this?"
"All I know is that her name is Shangguan Yu, and her identity is unknown. She was already by the Sect Master's side before I joined the Five Elements Sect. There are rumors that she was favored by the previous Sect Master and is his illegitimate daughter, the Sect Master's half-sister. The Sect Master is very indulgent towards her behavior."
They were almost at the Ask Dao Sect, and Qiu Jin'an couldn't very well send Shangguan Yu back, especially since Shangguan Yu probably wouldn't listen to him anyway.
Rather than losing face in public, he should back down.
As they spoke, the flying boat arrived at the entrance of the Ask Dao Sect Seeking Sect and docked to the side.
At the entrance of the Ask Dao Sect, the acting Sect Master, Immortal Fairy, and eight elders had already unfurled a banner to welcome the Five Elements Sect.
Qiu Jin'an led everyone off the ship, a faint smile playing on his lips as he observed the movements of the Ask Dao Sect.
The people from the Ask Dao Sect Seeking Sect had certainly never seen such a luxurious flying boat before.
The Grand Elder stepped forward and extended his hand to Qiu Jin'an. Just as Qiu Jin'an was about to shake hands, the Grand Elder said, "Boating fee."
The Grand Elder wasn't there to shake hands; he was there to charge a fee.
When the Five Great Immortal Sects visit each other, the leader usually uses his own Law Power to create mist, clouds, and other objects, which dissipate upon reaching the destination, making it very convenient. It's rare for someone like Qiu Jin'an to come by flying boat.
Such a large flying boat parked in front of the Ask Dao Sect's gate must cost money; this isn't a free parking lot or boat dock.
Qiu Jinan said in a deep voice, "I am here on behalf of the Five Elements Sect."
The Grand Elder thought for a moment and agreed with Qiu Jinan's suggestion, "Then let's offer a 20% discount."
Qiu Jin'an took a deep breath, thinking that he was a magnanimous person and wouldn't bother Ask Dao Sect.
Qiu Jinan's flying boat was too big, so the docking fee was dozens of times that of an ordinary flying boat, and Qiu Jinan's heart was bleeding.
But the thought of soon being able to the Ask Dao Sect Seeking Sect made him overlook these minor details.
Immediately afterwards, Qiu Jinan saw the people from the Ask Dao Sect and the banner hanging above their heads.
The welcome to the Five Elements Sect was exceptionally grand; the banner was personally written by an immortal, and there is no other banner like it in the world.
Although Huang Doudou seems unreliable, he has beautiful handwriting; the characters on the banner are vigorous and powerful.
The banner had simple words. "Welcome to the Five Elements Sect," but these were not written in modern script.
Qiu Jin'an squinted, recognizing the High Antiquity script. Was the Ask Dao Sect showing off its cultural heritage?
How ridiculous! Don't they know that I was once obsessed with High Antiquity times and had done extensive research on High Antiquity culture?
Qiu Jinan laughed and uttered a long string of obscure and difficult-to-understand words, which were in High Antiquity language and understood by only a few people.
While traces of High Antiquity writing can still be found, the pronunciation of High Antiquity texts is difficult to understand, or rather, incomprehensible to most. After all, the written characters have survived, but the pronunciation has not.
This was a lingering echo he stumbled upon from a relic. Judging from the arrangement of the surrounding objects and the texts that have been passed down, it should be a place of worship for High Antiquity immortals, where the immortals enjoyed the sacrificial process.
The lingering sound was grand and ancient, likely a praise from the immortals to the priests and others after the sacrifice, which Qiu Jinan felt was very suitable for the current occasion.
This explains why the sound was able to be passed down; it was the voice of an immortal.
Lu Yang quietly asked the Immortal Fairy what Sect Master Qiu was talking about.
The immortal fairy looked bewildered. "His accent was so heavy, I couldn't quite understand him, but it sounded like he was saying, 'Great immortal, please accept the humblest offering from your servant.'"
"Could it be that he recognized me?"
The Immortal Fairy was somewhat pleased; finally, someone knew her identity as an immortal, and their attitude was quite humble, far surpassing that of Yun Zhi and Lu Yang.
He was appointed as the vice leader of the Immortal Cult.
Qiu Jinan noticed the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "You don't understand what I'm saying, do you?"
