The Origin of the Five Symbols Sect's Name
"Chirp chirp!"
Xiao Ming stopped abruptly, looked over, widened his eyes, and then flapped his wings as if to express something.
Seeing this, Qin Li spoke up:
"Xiao Ming, just speak, I can understand you."
She was already able to understand many animal languages, and now that she could use the Beast Race to improve her aptitude and cultivation speed, she became even more adept at it.
As for what Xiao Ming said, it was nothing more than a rebuttal to what Qin Li had said.
As it turns out, whether it's a person or a bird, the tactic of provocation can always have some effect.
Although Xiao Ming disagreed with this statement, he stopped moving and his attention was drawn to Qin Li.
"Yes, I know Xiao Ming isn't like that."
Qin Li nodded, raised her hand and took out a spiritual fruit. It was a beautiful azure blue and exuded a cool aura.
After taking it out, Qin Li threw it at Xiao Ming and said:
Open your mouth.
Xiao Ming popped the fruit into his mouth and swallowed it with his head tilted back.
Then, he glanced outside again, and suddenly became angry.
"Chirp chirp chirp."
Xiao Ming kept uttering beautiful chirping sounds.
Qin Li clearly understood what they meant.
Phrases such as "If you disturb a bird's sleep in the middle of the night, may you be struck by lightning," "Today I'm going to roast you like a bird," and many other highly expressive expressions.
Qin Li remained silent for a moment after hearing this.
It has to be said that Xiao Ming has a bit of a temper when he wakes up.
However, despite offering his greetings, Xiao Ming didn't actually send out any other signals.
"Xiao Ming, let's go to the secret realm for a while."
Qin Li spoke up, glanced outside, and said:
"Once I've improved my strength, I'll catch it and roast it for you!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ming abruptly stopped, then looked at Qin Li with a clear question in his expression, "Really?"
Qin Li nodded and said:
"One piece grilled, one piece pan-fried, one piece deep-fried, and one piece stewed in soup!"
As Qin Li finished speaking...
Outside of the Five Symbols Sect.
The Winged Bird, which was following Xiang Qing's instructions, suddenly shuddered violently. A torrential downpour of "rain" fell in some areas for a moment, and it immediately buried its head and dared not make a sound.
On the Winged Bird, Xiang Qing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he murmured softly:
"How is that possible?"
The Winged Bird's transformation must have been caused by a greater shock, most likely from the Beast Race previously encountered by the Five Symbols Sect.
However, this happened right under his nose, yet he had no idea where the Beast Race's aura was coming from.
Such a situation could have far more implications than just a few.
"It seems I need to go inside and take a look myself."
To be able to hide something from the Saint Venerable without anyone noticing is no ordinary skill.
He immediately took a step forward and arrived in front of the Five Symbols Sect's formation.
And almost simultaneously.
Within the Five Symbols Sect, a long coffin flew out.
Its ancient and dignified appearance is captivating.
The long coffin was pointing in the very direction Xiang Qing was heading. When it was still some distance away, the long coffin suddenly stopped.
Xiang Qing paused for a moment, his gaze falling on the long coffin.
Squeak.
The lid of the long coffin made a sound, and then a crack appeared on the side of the coffin.
A withered arm lifted the cover plate.
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, an extremely old body, looking as if it had been dead for a long time, sat up from the long coffin.
As he stood up, the cracking and popping sounds of bones rubbing against each other rang out, making people hold their breath involuntarily, as if afraid that this figure might accidentally break himself.
Of course, appearances are just appearances.
This withered-looking figure did not outwardly display its aura, but a careful sensing would reveal the profound depth of its presence.
With just one glance, Huang Yunya's expression changed on the Winged Bird.
It had a rather exasperated tone.
The Five Symbols Sect, which has always been looked down upon, not only has Saint, but this figure before him, upon closer comparison, is in no way inferior to his own father?!
How can the Five Symbols Sect be so good at hiding its secrets!
If it weren't for the fact that a powerful member of this Xiang Clan noticed the problem, they would probably still be pretending to be a small sect.
However, Huang Yunya quickly calmed down.
Despite its strength, it is clearly nearing the end of its lifespan.
They certainly couldn't hold onto the Five Symbols Sect for many more years. Once the veteran powerhouses passed away, there was no need to worry about them anymore.
"May I ask where you esteemed elders come from?"
The figure spoke, a hoarse and grating voice that made people frown.
Xiang Qing looked at the other person, thought for a moment, and said:
"From a continent beyond yours, the Central Province, the Xiang Clan."
Now that the other party has appeared, let's proceed in order.
As for the Beast Race, since it's already so obvious, there's no need to rush.
The Five Symbols Sect could certainly continue to hide, or secretly relocate the Beast Race elsewhere; either way, it was possible.
But the Five Symbols Sect is here, and so is he.
This frightened the Xiang Clan Winged Bird Beast Race, and they were determined to see it!
"Central Province, Xiang Clan."
The old man read it aloud, then pondered for a moment and said:
"I wonder why, senior..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiang Qing cut straight to the point:
"What is the origin of your sect's name, Five Elements?"
Aside from some Lineage, the names of many forces are simply derived from certain conditions of the sect, such as being located in a good location, relying on a powerful artifact, or being named after the founder of the sect.
"The names of the Five Symbols."
The old man was taken aback upon hearing this, then gently shook his head:
"Senior, the name 'Five Symbols' originates from the Five Symbols, according to the sect's records."
"Hmm?" Xiang Qing's eyebrows twitched.
The old man continued:
"When the sect was first established, there were five enormous Horned Elephant guarding the sect, hence the name of these five elephants."
Xiang Qing was taken aback.
This method of naming is rather casual.
However, there are indeed some forces in the world that do this.
"Interesting. It seems the founder of the Five Symbols Sect was also naturally carefree."
As he spoke, Xiang Qing paused slightly, then changed the subject:
"Your Five Symbols Sect has been able to exist in the Land of the Four Directions for so long, you must have collected a lot of information and records. And your sect's hidden techniques must have an amazing past, almost keeping the world in the dark."
Upon hearing this, the old man shook his head and smiled.
"Senior, you flatter me. These are merely minor Xiao Dao in your eyes, nothing special."
Upon hearing this response, a powerful member of the Xiang Clan on the Winged Bird frowned.
They're all so old they're practically dead; they couldn't possibly not understand what the person in charge meant.
But this answer, and the fact that he didn't move...
But it really lacks sincerity.
However, the person in charge this time was perhaps a little too polite to this small force.
Even if it were an order, would the Five Symbols Sect, the strongest sect not even Saint, dare to disobey?
At this moment, Xiang Qing spoke up:
"When we arrived, Xiao Huang mentioned that there was a particularly beautiful and outstanding place in the Five Symbols Sect, so we should go and visit it."
As he spoke, Huang Yunya somewhat puzzled.
They're already this strong, why bother finding excuses?
Despite his confusion, Huang Yunya quickly put his mind to work.
After a moment, as if remembering something, he hurriedly said:
"Yes, the most beautiful scenery in the world is hidden in the peak of the sect, which is the Hidden Origin Peak within the Five Symbols Sect."
