Chapter 1090: Forbidden Area

Buzz!

The water vapor filling the sky condensed in the forbidden area behind the Sword Sect, as if forming waves one after another.

"What is that?"

The Sword Sect disciples all looked toward the direction of the forbidden area behind the mountain with surprise.

"That is the forbidden area."

The newly initiated Sword Sect disciples were full of confusion, while the old disciples looked at the back mountain with bewildered eyes, seemingly thinking of something very quickly.

Everyone began to tremble.

The forbidden area behind the mountain was a place that no disciple in the entire Sword Sect, except for a few elders, was qualified to enter. Anyone else who stepped in would be severely punished, and in serious cases, even expelled from the sect.

It is rumored that in the forbidden area behind the mountain, there is a mysterious elder who has been in seclusion there.

The newly initiated disciples didn't know much, but those elite disciples had all heard of this mysterious elder.

It was just that not many people had truly seen this mysterious elder, so much so that this mysterious elder had become a legend of the Sword Sect.

"The forbidden area behind the mountain, was that caused by that elder?"

Some newly joined disciples, listening to the discussions of their seniors, were all full of confusion.

"This senior brother, who is the mysterious elder you just mentioned?"

"Why haven't we heard of them?"

Some social-savvy newcomers quickly asked.

"Oh, it's Xiao Liu. It's normal that you haven't heard of Elder Su. This Elder Su is the most special existence in our Sword Sect."

"The history of our Sword Sect is still very short compared to the current Sword Domain, and you must all be familiar with our Sword Sect's Supreme Elder and the first Sect Leader."

"Of course, Supreme Elder Ge Nie, that was an invincible Sword Immortal. That battle back then, that style, made countless sword cultivators admire him."

When the newcomer mentioned that Sword Immortal, a look of longing appeared on his face.

Others were the same upon hearing this.

"Yes."

"Our Sword Sect is also famous because of this Supreme Elder."

However, everyone fell silent immediately after. In that battle, their Supreme Elder did indeed display the invincible style of a Sword Immortal, but unfortunately, he ultimately fell.

He was besieged by three Heavenly Court immortals of the same level, and finally suffered a sneak attack from a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Thinking of this, a hint of resentment appeared in their eyes.

If this Supreme Elder had not fallen, their Sword Sect would be even more glorious, and perhaps in the current Nanzhan Buzhou, they would have ranked among the top sects.

That was a Great Luo Golden Immortal sword cultivator.

The entire Nanzhan Buzhou didn't have one; even the ancestor of the Shushan Sword Sect couldn't compare to their Supreme Elder.

They were proud of this Supreme Elder.

However, the Sword Sect losing such a Great Luo Golden Immortal was indeed a heavy loss. Fortunately, although that Supreme Elder fell in that war, he had already reincarnated, and there would eventually be a day when he returned.

And the other, the first Sect Leader, led their Sword Sect to stand firm in this Nanzhan Buzhou, grow strong, and become the first-class force in the Nanzhan Buzhou today.

Although he was also seriously injured in that great battle and was rescued by someone, in the eyes of their Sword Sect disciples, he would always be the best Sect Leader in their hearts.

"Senior brother, we know these two."

"Hmm! You have heard of the two seniors I just mentioned, but actually, there was another one at that time. If you carefully understand the history of the sect, you should be able to understand a little."

"Compared to the previous two seniors, this Elder Su is actually more low-key, and because he doesn't have much contact with the disciples in the sect, he hasn't left any traces."

"But many of our Sword Sect's secret arts and divine abilities come from this senior."

"Especially the Earth Deity Path."

Another Earth Immortal realm disciple said.

"What?"

The newcomers were all taken aback upon hearing this.

"I remember now, it's actually him, so that's how it is."

A newcomer suddenly realized, seemingly having read the history of the sect, so his eyes suddenly widened.

So this person quickly said everything he knew.

"It's actually this senior, so this senior has been in seclusion in the forbidden area behind our Sword Sect all this time."

"Then how long has he been in seclusion? It must be thirty thousand years, right?"

Someone sighed. Thirty thousand years was a very, very long number for many newcomers. After all, cultivating to the Earth Immortal realm only gave one a lifespan of a little over ten thousand years.

This senior had actually been in seclusion for tens of thousands of years at once.

"Yes."

Several old disciples who had joined the sect for thousands of years sighed. Some disciples joined the sect just as they were experiencing the earth-shattering war.

Although that earth-shattering war was a war between the Jiuzhou and the Heavenly Court, it didn't have much to do with the Nanzhan Buzhou.

However, in the great war, many people from the Nanzhan Buzhou also participated.

And their Sword Sect, because of the first Sect Leader and the Supreme Elder, many people also participated, joining the Jiuzhou side.

They stood on the opposite side of the vast majority of sects in the Nanzhan Buzhou.

This is also the reason why the Sword Sect currently has a bad relationship with many sects in the Nanzhan Buzhou.

Later, the Jiuzhou were defeated. The Sword Sect was not pursued by the Heavenly Court, but in the Nanzhan Buzhou, there were several large sects that wanted to kick them while they were down and take action against the Sword Sect.

After all, at that time, the Sword Sect occupied several domains, and the sect had many resources, which made some people jealous.

Because the sect's strongest Great Luo Golden Immortal died in battle, they wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob them.

During that period, the Sword Sect's days were not easy. After all, several sects of similar strength joined forces to attack them, and the Sword Sect didn't have many allies at the time.

Fortunately, the Sword Sect had many sword cultivators, each of whom promoted quickly in battle, and coupled with the fact that those sects wouldn't work together, the Sword Sect barely managed to block them.

Later, some powerful loose cultivators came to support them, and finally, after losing a portion of their interests, the Sword Sect was finally able to survive.

Now, after a few thousand years, the Sword Sect has also recovered quite a bit.

Although no one has promoted to Great Luo Golden Immortal, there are more than a dozen Golden Immortal sword cultivators, and the number of Taiyi Golden Immortals has reached three.

Two of them are Sword Immortals, and their combat power is at the top level among Taiyi Golden Immortals.

Except for the lack of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the Sword Sect can be said to be the strongest existence under the top ten forces in the Nanzhan Buzhou.

In terms of foundation, after years of development, it is no longer bad.

In terms of inherited Dao techniques, the Sword Sect is not bad at all. Not to mention Great Luo Golden Immortal, they even have Quasi-Sage inheritances.

It's just that so far, except for that Supreme Elder, no one has cultivated to Great Luo Golden Immortal.

And now, among the three Taiyi Golden Immortals in the sect, one is a loose cultivator who joined the Sword Sect halfway, and the remaining two actually owe it to that earth-shattering war and the subsequent battles with those sects in the Nanzhan Buzhou.

Sword cultivators are indeed able to quickly improve their cultivation in battle.
