Chapter 770: Six major sects, Nascent Soul divine power

Looking along the crowd's gaze, Song Song Qingming saw dozens of cultivators guarding the sides of the magic formation, carefully warning the crowd that was approaching.

The cultivation of these people was at least late-stage Foundation Establishment, and among them were five or six Core Formation cultivators. Each of them held a high-tier formation flag in their hands, and it seemed that they had already formed a formation.

For a formation that could be formed by so many Foundation Establishment and Core Formation cultivators, Song Song Qingming just glanced at it and saw that the power it could exert was already enough to threaten Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Look, it's the cultivators of the Yujian Sect!"

Just when everyone was attracted by the magic formation in the middle of the beach, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, shifting everyone's gaze to mid-air.

Only to see a team of sword lights flying from the southwest of the island not far away. Before long, they landed from above the magic formation, turning into dozens of cultivators wearing uniform black Daoist robes.

These people, regardless of gender, age, or cultivation level, all had a sword sheath on their backs, looking very eye-catching.

The entire "Tianhai cultivation world" had six major Nascent Soul sects, which were "Qingyang Mountain," "Yujian Sect," "Luofeng Valley," "Tianxu Sect," "Shenhuo Sect," and "Jinxia Palace."

Among them, "Qingyang Mountain" had the strongest strength. There were not only two Nascent Soul cultivators in the sect, but one of the Supreme Elders had already reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul.

The "Tianhai Alliance," which was hostile to the Fuyun Mountain Range, was a powerful force formed by "Qingyang Mountain" uniting with three other Nascent Soul sects.

"Yujian Sect" was also one of the six major Nascent Soul sects in the Tianhai cultivation world. Although its disciples were the fewest among the six major sects.

But the cultivators of the "Yujian Sect" all practiced the sword cultivation path and also had two Nascent Soul cultivators sitting in the sect. The sect's strength was second only to "Qingyang Mountain," ranking second among the six major sects.

The strength of the remaining four sects, "Luofeng Valley," "Tianxu Sect," "Shenhuo Sect," and "Jinxia Palace," was about the same, and there was only one Nascent Soul cultivator in each sect.

Because "Yujian Sect" and another Nascent Soul sect, "Tianxu Sect," were both sects that did not like to participate in the disputes of the cultivation world, they did not choose to join the "Tianhai Alliance" formed by the other four Nascent Soul sects.

When fighting on the front line of the Lu Kingdom years ago, Song Song Qingming did not see the cultivators of the "Yujian Sect." This was his first time seeing the disciples of this sword cultivation sect.

After the cultivators of the "Yujian Sect" arrived at the scene, a burst of light soon lit up in the sky, and the cultivators of the "Tianxu Sect," "Qingyang Mountain," "Shenhuo Sect," and "Jinxia Palace," these Nascent Soul sects preparing to enter the secret realm, also arrived at the beach one after another.

The disciples sent by these sects numbered seventy or eighty at most and thirty or forty at least, all led by Core Formation cultivators, with Foundation Establishment cultivators following closely behind. No Nascent Soul cultivators were seen.

"Eh! Why don't we see people from Luofeng Valley coming over? Could it be that they don't intend to send anyone here this time?"

Seeing that the cultivators of the other five major Nascent Soul sects had arrived at the beach for a while, but the cultivators of the last Nascent Soul sect, "Luofeng Valley," had not appeared, many cultivators at the scene expressed their doubts.

Song Song Qingming heard this, and his heart was also a bit puzzled. His main goal in coming here this time was not the treasures in the secret realm, but the Core Formation elder of "Luofeng Valley" who had not yet appeared.

If the news provided by Feng He was wrong and this person really didn't come, then he would have made this trip in vain.

Just when everyone was a bit puzzled about this, a flash of spiritual light suddenly appeared in the mid-air above the magic formation, and then a middle-aged man wearing a golden crown and a jade belt appeared out of thin air in mid-air.

"There is someone above, it seems to be the old ancestor of Luofeng Valley!"

Hearing a cry of surprise not far from his side, Song Song Qingming hurriedly looked up and happened to see two streaks of light appearing out of thin air beside the middle-aged man.

Before long, a red-robed woman stepping on a lotus leaf and an old man with a long beard holding a golden whisk also arrived in mid-air and stood with the middle-aged man.

"Old ancestor Yun of Jinxia Palace, old ancestor Jin of Tianxu Sect, actually three Nascent Soul cultivators have come. Such a scene is really rare in a hundred years!"

"These are Nascent Soul cultivators; it's really enviable."

The many cultivators below quickly recognized the identities of the three upon seeing them, and they couldn't help but let out bursts of surprise, their eyes also carrying a few looks of awe toward the Nascent Soul cultivators.

The old man holding the whisk looked at the gorgeously dressed middle-aged man in front of him and immediately smiled and greeted him:

"I say, Fellow Daoist Qiu, you Luofeng Valley wouldn't really just have you coming alone, right! If that's the case, then I have to thank you for your generosity on behalf of the disciples in the sect."

"Who said I came alone!"

Hearing the old man's inquiry, Qiu Qiu Daoping's mouth slightly revealed a smile, and then he waved his hand toward the void behind him.

In the originally empty mid-air, the color suddenly changed, and then the figure of a white giant python several dozen zhang long slowly appeared.

On the back of this white giant python stood dozens of cultivators wearing yellow robes; they were the disciples of "Luofeng Valley" who had come with Qiu Qiu Daoping this time.

"Haha! I said how come I didn't see anything strange around, so it was that you brought the White Scale Demon Python, Fellow Daoist."

"I have long heard that this fourth-tier puppet beast of your sect is good at hiding its figure. Originally, I didn't quite believe it, but seeing it today really made me look at it with new eyes."

"You deliberately came late today, Fellow Daoist, you also like to joke with us!"

The long-bearded old man looked at the white giant python not far ahead. While joking, a hint of envy also appeared in his eyes.

"Alas, Fellow Daoist Jin misunderstood me. I was indeed delayed by sect matters today, not intentionally."

Hearing the two people constantly exchanging pleasantries on the side, the red-robed woman was a bit impatient and reminded softly: "Today is an important day to open the secret realm. We'd better not let these people wait too long."

"Fellow Daoist Yun is right. Fellow Daoist Qiu, you'd better let your juniors come down quickly, so as not to delay the time to open the secret realm later."

Qiu Qiu Daoping nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then waved his hand behind him. Dozens of "Luofeng Valley" disciples jumped down from the back of the white giant python and landed on a piece of open space left on the ground.

From the moment the white giant python appeared, Song Song Qingming's gaze had been fixed on it.

He soon found the Core Formation elder Qiu Qiu Wuxin, whom Feng He wanted him to deal with, among a group of "Luofeng Valley" disciples, and saw Chen Chen Shutian not far beside him.

It was not much different from the news provided by Feng He before. Although Qiu Qiu Wuxin's cultivation had reached the ninth layer of Core Formation, it was clearly not as solid as that of the hunched old man Song Song Qingming had seen some time ago. It was clear that he had not broken through for long and had only advanced to the ninth layer of Core Formation not long ago.

For an opponent like this, for Song Song Qingming, who had already mastered the flaws of the other party's cultivation technique, the other party would mostly not take any advantage in a fight. Just one-on-one, Song Song Qingming had great confidence in solving the other party.

Qiu Qiu Wuxin, who had just landed, suddenly felt that someone was staring at him from behind, so he opened his eyes and scanned the surroundings.

Seeing that the other party seemed to have noticed something, Song Song Qingming hurriedly turned his head to look into mid-air while Qiu Qiu Wuxin hadn't noticed him, avoiding the other party's line of sight.

"Junior Brother Qiu, what's wrong?"

Seeing Qiu Qiu Wuxin searching non-stop in the crowd, a Core Formation seventh-layer elder of "Luofeng Valley" beside him hurriedly asked.

Not finding anything unusual, Qiu Qiu Wuxin could only shake his head slightly and replied casually: "Nothing, it's just that there are many people coming, and I am a bit curious about who they are."

"Haha! These rogue cultivators coming here are just joining in the fun. I guess not many people dare to really enter the inner hall. Why do you need to be so concerned, Junior Brother?"

"We just need to keep a close eye on the cultivators of other major sects and successfully grab one or two Core Formation spiritual items, and we can complete the task assigned by the Supreme Elder. It's not that difficult."

"Humph! You can't say that. This time, Han Feng of Yujian Sect, Chixia of Jinxia Palace, and Xiao Xiao Qinghao of Qingyang Mountain have all come. They are not so easy to deal with."

After Qiu Qiu Wuxin finished speaking, his gaze had already turned to the position where the disciples of "Qingyang Mountain" were standing not far away.

Only to see a cyan-robed man with thick eyebrows and sword-like eyes just happened to turn his head and look in the direction where Qiu Qiu Wuxin was. However, this person just glanced at Qiu Qiu Wuxin slightly and immediately turned his gaze away, seemingly not paying too much attention to him.

And Qiu Qiu Wuxin here was staring fixedly at this Xiao Xiao Qinghao, who was known as the "number one Core Formation cultivator in the Tianhai cultivation world," with a hint of dread in his eyes.

Seeing Qiu Qiu Wuxin staring fixedly at the other party, the elder of "Luofeng Valley" hurriedly smiled and replied: "Junior Brother Qiu has now broken through to the ninth layer of Core Formation and has the magic treasure bestowed by the Supreme Elder to protect him. Even among the disciples sent by other sects at the scene, I am afraid that not many people can compare with Junior Brother now."

"With Junior Brother Qiu and Senior Brother Luo leading the team, as long as we don't conflict with the people of Qingyang Mountain, this task is not something that can be easily achieved."

Hearing the flattery of his fellow sect members, Qiu Qiu Wuxin did not seem very happy. He turned around calmly and said to the fellow sect members behind him:

"This time, the old ancestor has already given instructions. After entering the secret realm, we must at least grab a Thunder Infant Fruit. I hope all senior brothers and sisters can cooperate fully to help me complete the task assigned by the old ancestor."

"If anyone dares to disregard the overall situation of the sect after entering the secret realm and drags our feet, don't blame me for not reminding you now if the master blames you later."

After Qiu Qiu Wuxin finished speaking, his eyes were like sharp blades, sweeping across the faces of all the "Luofeng Valley" cultivators at the scene. Everyone hurriedly cupped their hands and replied respectfully: "We will definitely go all out!"

It was just that the few Core Formation elders with higher cultivation at the scene seemed to have a hint of meaningfulness in their eyes when looking at Qiu Qiu Wuxin. Clearly, they each had different views on this person who was issuing orders.

Like "Luofeng Valley," the cultivators of other major sects were also staring closely at each other at this moment, all paying attention to the opponents they would encounter after entering the secret realm.

Just when the crowd on the beach was discussing, a Core Formation cultivator wearing the "Yujian Sect" uniform suddenly flew into mid-air and said loudly to the crowd below: "Fellow Daoists, you have come to Wind-Thunder Island from afar, presumably all for the ancient secret realm that opens once every hundred years. This can be considered a rare grand event in our Tianhai cultivation world."

"Summoning everyone here today is precisely for the opening of the secret realm."

"However, before everyone enters the secret realm, there are some things that should be reminded to you in advance."

"Please listen carefully to the following words, fellow Daoists, so as not to accidentally violate the rules here, and it will be too late to regret it later."

"After the teleportation formation opens later, fellow Daoists just need to hand over enough spirit stones to directly enter the secret realm."

"According to the rules set before, Foundation Establishment cultivators only need to hand over two hundred spirit stones, while Core Formation cultivators need one thousand spirit stones each. No matter who the cultivators at the scene are or which sect they come from, this rule applies to everyone equally."

"If fellow Daoists have any thoughts about this and are unwilling to hand over spirit stones, you can leave the island on your own now. We will never force anyone."

Like the "Taiyue Lake" secret realm in Wei, this "Wind-Thunder Island" ancient secret realm had been jointly controlled by these Nascent Soul sects in the "Tianhai cultivation world." Cultivators and rogue cultivators from those small and medium-sized forces who wanted to go in also had to hand over a sum of spirit stones to them first.

There were already no less than two hundred Core Formation cultivators at the scene, plus nearly two or three thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators. Just collecting the teleportation fees would be at least hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

The six major Nascent Soul sects, such as "Luofeng Valley," were already making a fortune just by dividing these teleportation spirit stones, which was no wonder they could send three Nascent Soul cultivators to sit on the island.

Most of the cultivators who came to the island were aware of the matter of handing over spirit stones to enter the secret realm beforehand. Only a very small number of cultivators with relatively closed news showed a hint of surprise on their faces.

However, for a cultivator who had already reached Foundation Establishment, two hundred spirit stones were not much, and it was certainly difficult to stop their yearning for the spiritual items in the secret realm.

When the "Yujian Sect" cultivator in mid-air said this, although there was a burst of discussion below, no one chose to really leave the place.

Seeing that the sound of the crowd below talking was slightly smaller, the "Yujian Sect" cultivator paused and continued to say: "In addition, the opening time of the secret realm is about a month. If any of you want to come out early, you can use the teleportation token we will distribute later at any time."

"But if you want to go in again after coming out, you will have to hand over another portion of spirit stones."

"No matter what opportunities you have obtained after entering the secret realm, or what happens, and you fall into the secret realm, we will not interfere with these. I hope everyone will take care of themselves."

"No matter when you come out, you are not allowed to leave the island first. After the secret realm closes, we will open the special teleportation formation on the island to send you all away from the island uniformly."

"One thing must be remembered: this 'Wind-Thunder Island' forbids cultivators from fighting. No matter who has any life-and-death grudges, you are not allowed to fight with others on the island."

"I advise everyone, don't think about playing any tricks here, otherwise once you anger us, it won't be so easy to want to leave this island."

Just after the "Yujian Sect" cultivator finished speaking, the three Nascent Soul cultivators in the sky suddenly released a powerful pressure, making the many cultivators at the scene feel a trace of horror and instantly quiet down.

In front of powerful Nascent Soul cultivators, the strength of these people was indeed too weak, and no one dared to anger a Nascent Soul ancestor.

Seeing that the deterrence of the Nascent Soul cultivators had achieved the desired effect, the "Yujian Sect" cultivator cleared his throat again and continued with a smile:

"I have already said what should be reminded to everyone, and I won't say any more nonsense. I, here, first wish all fellow Daoists to have gains next!"

"After the secret realm opens later, fellow Daoists, please come forward one by one to hand over spirit stones and receive teleportation tokens, and you can directly enter the secret realm."

Just after the "Yujian Sect" cultivator finished speaking, a burst of white spiritual light suddenly lit up in the middle of the originally very quiet magic formation below, and soon a spiritual energy vortex appeared in front of everyone.

Song Song Qingming, who had already entered quite a few secret realms, just glanced at it and soon confirmed that this spiritual energy vortex should be the teleportation entrance to the secret realm.

Just after the teleportation formation opened, the cultivators of "Qingyang Mountain," led by Xiao Xiao Qinghao, were the first to arrive under the teleportation platform.

Under the gaze of the many cultivators at the scene, the cultivators of "Qingyang Mountain" handed over spirit stones one by one and each received a silver token.

Then they walked into the magic formation on the teleportation platform one by one, and soon the dozens of cultivators of "Qingyang Mountain" led by Xiao Xiao Qinghao disappeared before everyone's eyes.

After the disciples of "Qingyang Mountain" entered the secret realm, the disciples of the other five major Nascent Soul sects, "Yujian Sect," "Luofeng Valley," "Tianxu Sect," "Shenhuo Sect," and "Jinxia Palace," also entered the teleportation magic formation after handing over spirit stones one after another.

With these major sect disciples as a demonstration, the many rogue cultivators standing outside also began to follow the appearance of the previous cultivators, handing over spirit stones one by one and walking into the teleportation formation.

Under the guidance of the cultivators guarding the front of the teleportation formation, the entire scene proceeded very smoothly in an orderly manner, and soon hundreds of cultivators entered the secret realm through the teleportation formation.

Just when Song Song Qingming and the others were slowly queuing up to approach the teleportation formation, an old man wearing a white shirt standing not far in front of the team walked onto the teleportation formation platform slowly after handing over spirit stones.

Just when the white-shirted old man was approaching the teleportation formation with a happy face, more than a dozen golden spiritual lights suddenly lit up on the platform around him, trapping the old man directly in a cage formed by spiritual light.

"What is going on!"

Seeing this sudden scene, the cultivators queuing nearby suddenly let out a burst of surprise, not knowing why the cultivators guarding the teleportation formation would suddenly attack this person.

"Fellow... fellow Daoists, what is this for? I am just a rogue cultivator. I have already handed over spirit stones just now. This is my teleportation token!"

The white-shirted old man trapped by the light formation was only at the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment, and at this moment, he was also at a loss. He held the teleportation token in his hand and began to loudly question the cultivators beside him in front of everyone.

Faced with the questioning of the white-shirted old man and the doubts of the many cultivators around, the cultivators guarding the side of the teleportation formation did not pay much attention, just staring cautiously at the trapped old man.

"Humph! If you are a rogue cultivator? How could you trigger this Demon-Sealing Golden Light Formation? Do you think we are all so easy to fool?"

Before long, two Core Formation cultivators flew into mid-air from under the teleportation formation. One of them scolded the old man below, then took out the magic treasure on his body and turned it into a sharp sword to slash at him.

"Haha! I thought it was seamless to mix in this time. I didn't expect you to have a backup plan here. It was indeed my miscalculation today."

"However, don't be too proud. Relying on this broken formation to want to keep me, it is really underestimating my Black Wind."

Seeing that his identity had been recognized by the other party, the white-shirted old man, who was still looking at a loss just now, simply stopped pretending and revealed a hint of ferocity on his face.

Seeing the sword light coming from afar, the white-shirted old man laughed wildly, and a burst of black thick fog suddenly released from his body, rushing directly out of the light formation, and even the sword light just now was swallowed by a giant python transformed by the black fog.

"I didn't expect it to be you, Old Demon Black Wind!"

Seeing that this black thick fog was so powerful, the two Core Formation cultivators also instantly recognized the other party's identity, and a hint of surprise appeared on their faces.

"Old Demon Black Wind" was a famous demon cultivator in the Tianhai cultivation world for a long time. His cultivation had reached the peak of Core Formation two hundred years ago. In the past few hundred years, more than ten Core Formation cultivators had died in his hands alone.

The crowd watching the scene heard the name "Old Demon Black Wind" and also let out bursts of exclamation. Some low-tier cultivators near the teleportation formation, fearing that they would be affected by the great battle, hurriedly retreated.

Faced with such a powerful demon cultivator, the two cultivators who were only at the middle stage of Core Formation had already gone all out to stop him, but they were still quickly rushed out of the high platform where the teleportation formation was located by the black fog transformed by the other party.

"Hehe! Since this place doesn't let me in, then I won't accompany you. See you next time!"

Seeing that he had escaped the other party's obstruction so easily, Old Demon Black Wind also had a hint of pride on his face, manipulating the black fog to divide into dozens of parts and quickly disperse in mid-air.

Looking at the black fog in front of him suddenly splitting and fleeing in all directions, the few Core Formation cultivators who came to track him didn't know which one was the true body of "Old Demon Black Wind" for a while, so they could only cast spells to chase them one by one.

"Humph! This place is not where you can come and go as you please. Since you have the guts to send yourself to the door, I don't think you need to leave."

Just when the black fog transformed by "Old Demon Black Wind" was about to leap into the sea not far away, a reprimand suddenly came from the sky, followed by a piece of golden glow that shone directly on a black fog below, fixing it in mid-air.

Seeing that he was only one step away from escaping into the sea, but was suddenly blocked by the glow, "Old Demon Black Wind" hurriedly repeated his old trick, urging the black fog again to try to break free from the control of the glow.

However, this time, before he could break free from the control, another sword light descended from the sky, quickly passing through the black fog he was manipulating.

"Ah!"

Only a shrill scream was heard, and the black fog that was entangled beside "Old Demon Black Wind" quickly disappeared, leaving only a corpse with wide eyes in mid-air. ===== CHAPTER 771 =====

Only a shrill, miserable scream was heard, and the black mist coiling around the "Feng Laogui of Black Wind" rapidly vanished, leaving behind only a corpse with wide-open eyes in mid-air. (End of chapter)
