Sword cultivators from nearly all of Central Continent had gathered here. Countless people came in hopes of earning the favor of Tai Bai Sword Sect's senior cultivators,
and then entering the Tai Bai Sword Sect to cultivate ancient sword arts.
There was more than one such tale.
For instance, Nine Swords True Lord, now the foremost sword cultivator of Central Continent whose might shook the world,
had once been an ordinary swordsman from elsewhere who came to Tai Bai Immortal City and earned the appreciation of Sword Origin True Lord, the Sect Leader of the Tai Bai Sword Sect at the time.
He joined the sect,
and then soared into the heavens in a single bound.
In fact, disciples who had entered the sect after winning the favor of its elders accounted for more than one-fifth of the entire Tai Bai Sword Sect.
And among these disciples, the likelihood of powerful figures emerging far exceeded that of those who entered through normal means.
Of the Sword Sect's eight Nascent Soul sword cultivators today, half had joined in this manner.
Wang Erniu was one of them.
Before him came Nine Swords True Lord; after him came the Golden Light Sword Immortal.
As Zhou Xun walked through the streets of Tai Bai Immortal City, most of the surrounding shops were related to swords. Some sold all manner of sword embryos, the Spirit Energy fluctuations upon them revealing their extraordinary nature.
There were even little shops selling sword sheaths.
There were also shops dedicated to selling sword cultivation manuals, and even pavilions specializing in teaching the Dao of the sword. Apart from this place,
Zhou Xun had never seen shops that made a living by teaching swordsmanship anywhere else.
