"Greetings, Sect Master!"
When the sect leader of the Sword Gate appeared, the powerful members of the Sword Gate immediately bowed in respect.
No need for formalities.
"Was it that little fellow who comprehended the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter within the sword monument?"
The Sword Gate Sect Master ignored the Supreme Elders of the Sword Gate and his burning gaze instantly fell on Su Xiuyi, who was sitting cross-legged, absorbing and refining the Law of Slaughter and comprehending the inheritance.
"Good!"
"It was this young fellow who comprehended the inheritance within the sword monument; our Sword Gate's strongest inheritance finally has a successor."
The Supreme Elder, who was standing nearby, hurriedly offered an explanation.
"Okay, very good."
"Haha, thousands of years have passed, and the interruption of the killing legacy has caused my Sword Gate to gradually fall into silence, each generation weaker than the last. This time, this little fellow has comprehended the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter and will be able to open the inheritance ground."
"Once the Land of Inheritance opens, the geniuses of my Sword Gate will be able to enter it. I hope this will make my Sword Gate stronger."
"Also, it's commendable that the little fellow has comprehended the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter, but we mustn't let it cloud our judgment. Immediately arrange for strong individuals to guard the area. The Dark Moon Cult is now the king of this land. If they knew that a genius in our Sword Gate had comprehended the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter, they would definitely stop at nothing to destroy it."
The Sword Gate Sect Master's gaze sharpened instantly.
"Yes, Sect Master!"
"I will personally oversee this situation. If any members of the Dark Moon Cult dare to cause trouble, they will be ensured a swift and complete annihilation."
"The legacy of the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter is far too important to my Sword Gate. I would rather die than let this disciple be in any danger."
The sect leader of the Sword Gate heard the Supreme Elder's words, nodded slightly, and then disappeared.
The Supreme Elder of the Sword Gate Sect swept his gaze across the area, and the powerful figures beside him instantly shot out, standing around Su Xiuyi. An incomparably terrifying aura erupted from their bodies, instantly causing the surrounding disciples to retreat.
This area instantly became a vacuum, and no one could approach it.
Yang Yi, Meng Hao, and Fairy Lu Yao, who were standing next to Su Xiuyi, all showed fear upon sensing the aura of the Golden Immortal.
The three of them were a little parched, because at that moment, a powerful True Immortal was walking towards them step by step.
"Are the three of you followers of this little guy?"
Although the True Immortal spoke politely, he instilled immense fear in Yang Yi and his companions.
The three immediately replied, "In response to your question, senior, we are good friends, and of course, we would be honored to have you as our follower."
"Step back!"
"This little guy will be taken care of by us!"
Upon hearing Yang Yi's words, the Golden Immortal's voice turned cold. Before speaking, he was unaware of Yang Yi Yang Yi and his companions' identities, assuming that they were geniuses from the same Lineage as Su Xiuyi. Now, hearing that they were merely friends, he did not hesitate and instantly drove them all away.
Yang Yi and the other two immediately withdrew, not daring to disturb them in any way.
The Sword Gate has now opened, Sword Gate Supreme Elder proclaimed, " The Sword Gate opens ahead of schedule today, so the Sword Gate's assessment will also be moved forward. We welcome geniuses from all directions to come to our Sword Gate to participate in the assessment. Those who pass the assessment may enter our Sword Gate for cultivation."
Upon hearing the Supreme Elder's words, the talented disciples withdrew their shocked gazes and hurriedly participated in the Sword Gate's assessment.
The Sword Gate's assessment began, but Su Xiuyi was completely unaware of it, as she was fully immersed in her cultivation. After all, Su Xiuyi was very clear that with the unparalleled talent she had displayed, the Sword Gate's experts would definitely protect her safety.
After all, Ye Chen had only grasped the superficial aspects of the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter before receiving protection, while I had directly entered the inner sanctum and obtained the complete inheritance, so I would definitely be taken care of by the powerful figures of the Sword Gate.
As she continued to devour and refine, integrating all the inherited insights, Su Xiuyi spent a full three days cultivating.
However, the Sword Gate was not closed, and the Golden Immortal showed no impatience. They sat cross-legged around Su Xiuyi's body like statues, silently guarding her.
The Supreme Elder in the void also closed his eyes to rest, never leaving. The longer Su Xiuyi cultivated, the more excited these people became.
Because Su Xiuyi is currently immersed in deep cultivation, the longer she cultivates, the deeper Su Xiuyi understanding becomes.
In just three days, these people sensed that Su Xiuyi's cultivation had advanced from the Peak Void Immortal realm to the Peak of the Early True Immortal Realm. Even for a prodigy, it would be impossible to achieve such an improvement without several decades of time. However, Su Xiuyi only took three days. How could these people not be excited?
At this moment, the terrifying killing aura emanating from Su Xiuyi gradually disappeared. After cultivating for three full days, she slowly opened her eyes.
At this moment, Su Xiuyi's eyes became terrifying, turning blood red.
Like a demon emerging from the depths of hell, even those Golden Immortal, with their extraordinary strength, trembled involuntarily upon sensing Su Xiuyi's murderous aura.
In the void, the Supreme Elder, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, instantly appeared before Su Xiuyi. " Su Yi, congratulations on reaching the True Immortal Realm realm. I am the Supreme Elder of the Sword Gate Sect."
Su Xiuyi hurriedly suppressed her murderous aura and bowed, "Disciple Su Yi greets the Supreme Elder."
"Did this disciple miss the Sword Gate's assessment?"
When Su Xiuyi opened her eyes, she found herself alone. Without even thinking, she knew that her deep cultivation had caused her to miss the Sword Gate's assessment.
"Hahaha!"
"Little one, you have no need to worry. You have received the strongest Dao of the Sword inheritance from the Sword Gate. You do not need to take any tests. The sect leader and all the supreme elders have unanimously approved and granted you the status of a true disciple."
"This is your token."
With a wave of his hand, the Supreme Elder sent a token floating to Su Xiuyi's face.
"Thank you, Elder!"
Su Xiuyi accepted the token of a true disciple with a look of delight.
"Little fellow, three days have passed. Come with me into the Sword Realm!"
After the Supreme Elder finished speaking, he turned and entered the portal in the void, and Su Xiuyi hurriedly followed behind.
Those powerful Golden Immortal glanced coldly at the void, revealing a hint of disdain, and then entered the portal one after another. The enormous Gate of Space the Sword Gate completely disappeared.
After Su Xiuyi and the others fell silent, several figures appeared in the void. These people were shrouded in black robes and were none other than the powerful figures of the Dark Moon Cult.
"What a pity, I didn't expect the Supreme Elder of the Sword Gate to be personally guarding this place."
" The Sword Gate Sect's legacy of the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter has been inherited. It seems the Sword Gate will be a formidable enemy of our Dark Moon Cult in the future."
"Let's go back and report to the Sect Leader."
The powerful members of the Dark Moon Cult hurriedly departed.
Within the Sword Realm.
The Supreme Elder led the way and introduced Su Xiuyi behind him.
"Little one, congratulations on receiving the inheritance of the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter."
"To tell you the truth, the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter is a top-tier inheritance within our Sword Gate. The reason our Sword Gate has been declining over the years is because no one has been able to obtain all the inheritances of the Sword Stele. Only by obtaining all the inheritances of the Sword Stele can one unlock the ancestral land within the Sword Realm."
"Our ancestral land contains endless heritage."
"Therefore, the sect leader and all the supreme elders have unanimously decided to grant you the status of the ninth true disciple and to oversee the Ninth Peak."
" The Sword Realm is incredibly vast, an ancient ruin. Our Sword Gate occupies the source of the spiritual veins within this Sword Realm. The Sword Gate is surrounded by eighty-one God Mountain, with the Ninth Peak at its core, holding a very special position. As a true disciple of the Ninth Peak, your status is exceptionally noble."
"But if you want to wear the crown, you must first bear its weight; I believe you understand this principle."
"You, as the presiding over the Ninth Peak, have been provoked by countless true disciples. Of course, we will not stop them, but we will absolutely not allow any true disciples who are beyond your level to provoke you."
Whether you can maintain your position as the leader of the Ninth Peak depends on your own abilities.
"Do you understand?"
The Supreme Elder's gaze fell upon Su Xiuyi, a sharp glint in his eyes.
Su Xiuyi showed no fear and said indifferently, "Thank you for the reminder, Elder. This disciple knows what to do. If anyone offends me, may I kill them?"
"Can."
The old man had originally wanted to see if Su Xiuyi showed any unease, but upon sensing the cold indifference and disdain in Su Xiuyi's eyes, he felt even more admiration for her.
Soon, under the guidance of the Supreme Elder, Su Xiuyi finally entered the Sword Gate. The Sword Gate's Holy Temple was an enormous golden palace, which resembled a celestial court.
Enveloped by an extremely terrifying sword aura.
Surrounding the temple are eighty-one God Mountain, God Mountain radiating a terrifying Sword Qi.
Like 81 Jian Yi, they guarded the temple.
The Ninth Peak, where Su Xiuyi is located, holds a very special position in the core area, situated to the east of the Holy Temple.
Upon seeing this God Mountain, Su Xiuyi couldn't help but show a look of surprise. Su Xiuyi hadn't expected that the Ninth Peak held such a special position within the Sword Gate.
From that location, if the layout of the royal palace is followed, the Ninth Peak is where the Eastern Palace is located.
In other words, the master of the Ninth Peak is the successor to the master of the Sword Gate Sect.
However, Su Xiuyi did not show any fear on her face. If she could really control the Sword Gate, it would be a good thing. After all, Su Xiuyi also needed a sharp sword, and it would be good to make the Sword Gate her own sharp sword.
Soon, led by the Supreme Elder, Su Xiuyi arrived at the Ninth Peak.
The Supreme Elder did not immediately lead Su Xiuyi to a specific peak. Instead, he looked at Su Xiuyi with a solemn expression and said, "This is the Ninth Peak, Lutian Peak."
"This place was once guarded by the Sword Master of the Sword Gate, and it is also the training ground for the second generation leader of the Sword Gate."
" Lutian Peak is equivalent to the location of the Eastern Palace, so you mustn't be careless. This position has always been vacant and coveted by all the true disciples, so you'd better cultivate diligently, otherwise you'll find it difficult to resolve the trouble."
Go!
"Other matters will be arranged by the elders of the Sword Gate. The people on Lutian Peak are those who are willing to follow you. I have selected some disciples with good talent for you. If you are not satisfied, you can add some and expel some."
"Within this Lutian Peak, you are the king. No one can interfere with anything here, including me."
"Practice diligently!"
The Supreme Elder turned to leave, but then seemed to remember something and said to Su Xiuyi, "If you have time, go and see the words 'Lutian '."
Then, it vanished in an instant.
Su Xiuyi stepped into Lutian Peak, figures hurriedly bowed, saying, "We pay our respects to the Peak Master."
The one in the lead was none other than Ye Chen.
Yang Yi, Meng Hao, and Fairy Lu Yao were also at Lutian Peak at this moment.
No need for formalities.
"These days, Ye Chen has been in charge of everything at Lutian Peak. I need to cultivate for a while."
After Su Xiuyi appeared, she didn't make many arrangements, but directly issued an order.
After entering the Sword Gate, Su Xiuyi's goal was to improve her strength. Only with sufficient strength could she attract more outstanding followers, which would not only help her resolve troubles but also facilitate gathering information.
" Yang Yi, Meng Hao, Lu Yao, come with me!"
Su Xiuyi called out three names, Yang Yi, and the three of them immediately followed excitedly.
Although Ye Chen was the most talented and strongest among all the members of Lutian Peak, Su Xiuyi wanted more flags. Yang Yi, Meng Hao, and Lu Yao all had good talents, and Su Xiuyi decided to cultivate the three of them so that she would have more people to use.
After all, Su Xiuyi knew very well that it shouldn't have been difficult for Yang Yi and the other two to enter the Sword Gate and obtain an inner disciple spot. But now they were here, which clearly meant that the three of them had given up their inner disciple status. Since that was the case, Su Xiuyi would also offer some guidance.
Soon, Su Xiuyi led the three to the mountainside of Lutian Peak, Su Xiuyi's gaze immediately fell on the two characters "Lutian".
With just one glance, Su Xiuyi sensed an exceptionally terrifying intent to kill.
Su Xiuyi turned her head and looked at the three of them, smiling as she said, "Brother Yang, Brother Meng, Fairy Lu Yao, I didn't expect that the three of you would be willing to follow me. But since you have chosen to follow me, I will not let you down. As my followers, if your strength is too weak, you will be of no use to me."
"Therefore, today I am prepared to impart a portion of the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter to the three of you. After I have imparted the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter to you, the three of you will follow me here to cultivate and comprehend the true meaning within the two words 'Lutian.'"
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Xiuyi pointed a finger at the three of them, passing on a portion of the Dao of the Sword of Slaughter to them.
With a thud, Yang Yi and the other two immediately knelt before Su Xiuyi, their faces showing respect. "Thank you, Peak Master, for bestowing upon us the inheritance. From this day forward, we are willing to serve you to the death."
Upon receiving the inheritance, the three men wore solemn expressions and immediately swore an oath.
"Reflect on the legacy, and don't let me down."
Su Xiuyi didn't say much, leaving behind a single sentence before Skysoar into the air.
His gaze fell upon the two characters "Lutian ".
