Chapter 168 Five Major Sects

A year passes in the blink of an eye.

The sect is extremely lively today.

All the elders of the Sword Sect stopped in front of the sect's gate, looking into the distance with smiles on their faces and happily communicating with each other.

Behind the elders stood seven young men and women, all dressed in extraordinary clothes, with a hint of arrogance between their brows.

These seven people are the direct disciples of the seven inner sect elders of the Sword Sect. Their strength is at the level of life and death, and they are the backbone of the sect.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

At this moment, a real rainbow light appeared at the junction of heaven and earth, and dozens of figures appeared in front of the elders in an instant.

They were dressed in red robes, and there was a mark emitting red light between their eyebrows.

"Awaited!"

The red-robed old man in the lead smiled heartily and strode forward, exuding a fiery aura.

This person is Yan Lun, the third elder of the Fiery Flame Sect, one of the five major sects in the Southern Region.

"Haha, Elder Yan Lun is still as charming as ever. I guess his realm has improved a little bit?"

Yu Kongzi asked with a smile.

"How can I compare to you? I have only had some occasional feelings over the years, and my strength has only improved a little bit."

Yan Lun smiled modestly, with an indescribable pride in his eyes.

"Long!"

Just as the two were talking and laughing, the sky shook and two groups of people came from the sky. They were the Wuyin Sect and the Dan Sect, one of the five major sects.

"Are we not late?"

The speaker was Dan Luotian, the great elder of Dan Sect. He was dressed in green, with messy hair, and spoke with a smile on his face.

"Yan Lun, you old man have become much stronger."

Next to Dan Luotian, Hong Tao, the great elder of the Wuyin Sect, glanced at Yan Lun and curled his lips.

"Haha, you old thing is not bad."

Yan Lun laughed out loud, and the pride in his eyes could hardly be concealed.

"Um?

That old immortal from the Biyun Sect hasn't arrived yet?"

Hong Tao curled his lips again, glanced at the whole audience, then looked at Yu Kongzi and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"The Green Cloud Sect is deep in the western part of the Southern Region. The journey is long, so it is normal to arrive later."

Yu Kongzi chuckled and explained for Biyun Sect.

"Come on, at our level, distance doesn't matter."

Hong Tao felt that Yu Kongzi's words were nonsense, and his dissatisfaction became even greater.

"Hong Tao, could you please not be so aggressive when you speak?"

At this moment, a void door suddenly appeared in the sky, and an old man's voice came from the door.

Then, the door slowly opened and several figures walked out.

"Humph, I always wait for you, and you never change your behavior."

Hong Tao stared, snorted coldly, and looked displeased.

"Do you think I am like you, running here without tidying up my appearance?"

Li Yang, the great elder of Biyun Sect, also widened his eyes and retorted in dissatisfaction.

"Okay, okay, now that everyone is here, let's go in."

Yu Kongzi touched his forehead with a headache and looked helpless.

These people are old monsters who have lived for thousands of years, but they still speak like children and argue with each other at every turn. It is really frustrating.

"Indeed, it's getting late. This year's Tomb Qualification Competition will surely be exciting, right?"

Dan Luotian nodded, glanced at the seven people behind Yu Kongzi with a deliberate look, and asked with a smile: "Not bad, not bad. The Sword Sect's foundation is indeed the best in the Southern Region. The strength of these seven people is extraordinary."

Yu Kongzi smiled faintly, then looked at the woman behind Yan Lun and asked with a smile: "What is the name of this little kid?"

"Yan Lu pays homage to Great Elder Yu Kongzi!"

Upon hearing this, the woman replied respectfully.

"So it's your granddaughter. She's so young but she already has the strength of the late Shengxuan realm. Her future is limitless!"

There was a flash of surprise in Yu Kongzi's eyes, and then he said with a smile.

"Of course, my granddaughter has been gifted since she was young. With my hard work and teaching over the years, she can fight even at the Profound Death Realm!"

When talking about his granddaughter, Yan Lun's eyes were filled with indescribable pride.

Yan Lu has practiced diligently over the years, not only has he inherited all his true teachings, but is even better than him in some aspects. How could he not be proud?

"Humph, do you think you are the only one with this kind of power from the Fiery Flame Sect?

Bai Tianyi, come out and show them the strength of our Wuyin Sect!"

After saying that, a handsome man with a shy smile walked up from behind Hong Tao.

He seemed a little uneasy, his hands clasped together.

Yu Kongzi frowned and looked at the man seriously, with shock in his eyes.

Not only Yu Kongzi, but Yan Lun and the other three also showed the same expression.

"Death Profound Realm Late Stage!"

"Hong Tao, where did you get this kid?

Do you have such a terrifying talent?"

Li Yang looked at the man who was less than 30 years old and asked in surprise.

Hong Tao showed a proud smile and said, "A few years ago, I accidentally found him in a deep mountain and brought him back to the sect."

"In this ancient tomb battle, my Wuyin Sect has the White Robe, so isn't this a safe bet for first place?"

As Hong Tao spoke, he seemed to have seen the scene of Bai Tianyi winning the first place and laughed again.

In response, no one responded, and a solemn look appeared on their faces.

For a strong person who has reached the realm of life and death, every step apart is like a chasm, not to mention a top genius from one of the five major sects.

It is no exaggeration to say that Bai Tianyi's strength at this moment is even comparable to that of a strong man in the Wheel-Turning Realm.

Thinking of this, Yu Kongzi's mood became very heavy.

The Sword Sect is the strongest sect in the Southern Region. If it loses easily to the Mist Hidden Sect, the sect's reputation will probably not look good.

At this moment, the faces of the Sword Sect's direct disciples also turned somewhat ugly.

As disciples of the Sword Sect, they inherently possessed a kind of pride that others did not possess. Now, facing Bai Tianyi, this pride certainly disappeared, and they even felt a sense of humiliation in their hearts.

"Boom!"

Just as everyone was shocked by Bai Tianyi's terrifying talent, an unusual movement was heard in the back mountain of Jianzong.

A terrifying sword intent rose into the sky, transformed into a huge pillar of light, and merged into the clouds.

The next moment, the vital energy of heaven and earth within a hundred miles began to shake violently.

"Which Sword Sect disciple is making a breakthrough?"

Yan Lun looked up at the beam of light filled with terrifying sword intent, turned his head to look at Yu Kongzi, and asked.

Yu Kongzi thought for a moment, then replied, "I think it should be Lin Yuan, the sect master's personal disciple."

"Li Xiaoyao's direct disciple!"

When these words were spoken, people from the four major sects were all shocked.

Li Xiaoyao is very powerful and has never recruited any disciples. But now he suddenly accepts disciples. It is hard to imagine the extent of this person's talent.

"Looking at his aura, it seems that he is about to break through the Shengxuan realm...?"

Yan Lun muttered to himself, feeling somewhat confused.

As the direct disciple of the Sword Sect's leader, why is his strength only this high?

Just as he was thinking, the beam of light had dissipated, and a thin figure was suspended in the sky. A terrifying aura rushed out from his body and filled the entire Sword Sect!
