The Five Elements Sect.
Mo Yun and Lin Qingxue arrived early at Purple Gold Mountain, reached the designated check-in point, and patiently waited for the examination to begin.
The Five Elements Sect spanned hundreds of miles, encompassing mountains, lakes, and rivers.
Besides the Seven Main Peaks that towered into the clouds, there were naturally many other mountains.
