City of Profound Mysteries

Jiang Daoming stood at the outskirts of Xuanjing City, his eyes filled with awe and anticipation. This city, larger and more profound than the one he had left behind, seemed to hold countless secrets within its sprawling streets and towering structures. He could sense the vibrant energy pulsating through the air, signaling the presence of cultivators of various levels.

As he approached the transportation booth, his ears caught snippets of conversation from a group of people gathered nearby. Among them was the young genius he had encountered earlier, who was now enthusiastically sharing his knowledge about the four sacred lands.

Curiosity got the better of Jiang Daoming, and he subtly made his way closer to listen.

"And then there's the Celestial Sword Sect," the young genius said, his voice brimming with excitement. "They are renowned as the masters of swordsmanship, and their disciples possess unparalleled sword skills. The Celestial Sword Sect's sacred land is situated atop a floating mountain, said to be blessed by celestial beings themselves. It is a place of extraordinary cultivation potential."

Jiang Daoming's heart raced as he heard about the Celestial Sword Sect. The prospect of mastering the art of the sword and being part of such a prestigious sect ignited a fire within him. He knew deep down that this was where he wanted to go.

The young genius continued, "The Phoenix Flame Valley is ranked second among the sacred lands. They are known for their mastery over fire techniques, harnessing the power of the mythical phoenix. Their flames are said to be capable of incinerating anything in their path, making them the most feared and powerful sect in the cultivation world."

Jiang Daoming's mind swirled with images of blazing fires and the intensity they must possess. While the Phoenix Flame Valley intrigued him, his heart was set on the path of the sword.

Just as he was about to turn away, the young genius mentioned, "And let's not forget the Moonlit Blossom Sect, a sect renowned for their profound knowledge of medicinal herbs and healing techniques. They possess the ability to heal even the most critical wounds. However, the Moonlit Blossom Sect only accepts female disciples."

Jiang Daoming nodded to himself. While the healing abilities of the Moonlit Blossom Sect were remarkable, he knew that his path lay elsewhere. His determination to enter the Celestial Sword Sect burned brighter than ever.

With his decision made, Jiang Daoming stepped forward and approached the transportation booth attendant. He purchased a ticket for the beast transport that would take him directly to the province where the Celestial Sword Sect's acceptance ceremony was to be held. The excitement and anticipation filled his veins as he boarded the transport, knowing that he was one step closer to his dream.

As the journey began, he couldn't help but overhear the young genius continuing to regale the group with tales of the four sacred lands and their unique strengths. His words painted a vivid picture of the cultivation world, filled with diverse sects and powerful techniques.

Jiang Daoming listened intently, absorbing every detail, as the young genius spoke passionately about the wonders of the Phoenix Flame Valley, the serene elegance of the Moonlit Blossom Sect, and the enigmatic illusions of the Void Serenity Sect.

The information he gathered only fueled his desire to reach the Celestial Sword Sect, where he hoped to unlock his true potential and become a master of the sword.

As the beast transport carried him closer to his destination, Jiang Daoming's resolve hardened. He was prepared to face any challenge and overcome any obstacle in his path. The journey to the sacred lands and the acceptance ceremony awaited him, and he was determined to seize this opportunity to prove his worth.
