“Have we arrived?”
A dozen hours passed quickly.
When the Cloud Boat slowed down, Qin Xuan slowly opened his eyes and looked out the window curiously.
“We should have arrived. Looking at the situation here, this must be the Ling Shou Sect.”
The five great Sects of Profound Dragon Dao are: Azure Green Sect, Wan Jian Sect, Ling Shou Sect, Zhenshan Sect, and Thousand Dharma Hall.
The Azure Green Sect is a relatively balanced Sect because each of its Main Peaks has its own Legacy.
However, the other few Sects are all different.
The Ling Shou Sect is most skilled at Beast Taming, and they always use Spirit Beasts as their combat power in battles.
Therefore, without relying on Spirit Beasts, their combat power is not very strong, and their close-combat ability can even be said to be very weak.
Because they are skilled at Beast Taming, their Mental Energy is not weak at all, but most of their Mental Energy is used to control Spirit Beasts and is generally not used to actively attack others.
Since their own combat power is weak, these Disciples of the Ling Shou Sect value their Spirit Beasts very much.
Some Disciples of the Ling Shou Sect even raise several Spirit Beasts to serve different purposes.
“Fighting with these Disciples of the Ling Shou Sect should be relatively easy. I don’t think it will waste too much time.”
Qin Xuan pondered, but besides the Ling Shou Sect, the other few Sects would require a bit more vigilance.
“The Wan Jian Sect is most skilled in Sword Arts, so all the Disciples in that Sect are Sword Cultivators.”
Sword Cultivator is a relatively extreme type of Cultivator.
Unlike Body Cultivators or Spell Cultivators, Sword Cultivators primarily Cultivate the Sword Dao.
Sword Dao Cultivators are the most unpredictable.
Weak Sword Cultivators are extremely weak; it can be said that they cannot defeat anyone in the same Realm.
However, if a Sword Cultivator has a sufficient grasp of the Sword Dao, then that Sword Cultivator is virtually invincible.
They are considered invincible within the same Realm, and fighting above their level is not an issue.
“By my reckoning, I am also half a Sword Cultivator.”
Qin Xuan Cultivates a wide variety of things, and he has quite a bit of experience in the Sword Dao.
Even if he cannot compete in the Sword Dao with Cultivators who primarily Cultivate it, he is not worried about this point given his ability to fight above his level.
“The Zhenshan Sect advocates Dual Cultivation of Body and Spell. They dislike using various weapons and advocate refining their physical bodies to be like weapons. They are relatively weak in the early stage, but their strength becomes extraordinary in the Late Stage.”
Qin Xuan pondered, his eyes flickering.
“Besides the Zhenshan Sect, this Thousand Dharma Hall is the most unconventional.”
Thousand Dharma Hall and Zhenshan Sect are almost at two extremes.
If the Zhenshan Sect does not want to rely on any external objects, then the Thousand Dharma Hall wants to utilize external objects as much as possible.
Medicinal Pills, Talismans, weapons…
They spare no expense for anything that can be used to enhance their strength.
“The Human Race created these things to provide more convenient help to the Human Race. If they are not used, what is the difference from Spirit Beasts?”
Therefore, there has always been a conflict between the Zhenshan Sect and the Thousand Dharma Hall.
Looking at the information the Grand Elder gave them, Qin Xuan nodded slightly, gaining an understanding of these few Sects.
“The Thousand Dharma Hall has quite a few secret arts, including many that can stimulate potential. It seems I need to pay a little attention to this point. Secondly, they like to poison…”
This is also why the Thousand Dharma Hall has a bad reputation.
This Sect really likes to use underhanded tricks, and methods like poisoning emerge endlessly.
“Roar!”
Just as Qin Xuan was looking at this information, a huge beast roar came from below.
Qin Xuan looked outside. At some point, several huge flying Spirit Beasts had already surrounded the Cloud Boat.
“These are the people from the Ling Shou Sect. The Spirit Beasts they ride are quite good.”
Looking at the Spirit Beasts beneath these people, Qin Xuan felt a bit envious.
“Alright, everyone, come out and meet the Fellow Daoists of the Ling Shou Sect!”
Just then, the Grand Elder transmitted a message to everyone on the Cloud Boat.
Hearing this, everyone hurriedly walked out of the Cloud Boat.
In mid-air, in front of the people of the Ling Shou Sect, a lovable Middle-aged Man stood on the back of a fiery red large bird, cupping his hands in greeting towards the Grand Elder.
“Just now, my few magpies were still chirping on the branches. I said that distinguished guests were coming. Now it seems that it has fallen upon all of you from the Azure Green Sect. After a few years, Grand Elder of the Azure Green Sect’s demeanor is still the same. Congratulations!”
“Fellow Daoist Li, you are truly too polite. I am already an old man, with graying temples, unlike Fellow Daoist Li, whose body remains healthy.”
The Grand Elder politely replied, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, the Grand Elder then led the people of the Azure Green Sect to salute the people of the Ling Shou Sect.
“No problem, no problem. Our five factions of Profound Dragon should naturally be united. After today, no matter which Sect’s Disciple stands out, I will treat them equally.”
This Elder Li Wei of the Ling Shou Sect said with a smile.
However, Qin Xuan obviously did not believe his statement very much.
“There are too many scheming people within the five great factions. Which Elder is an easy target? If you truly believe this person is so easy to talk to, then you’d really be a fool.”
Qin Xuan pondered, not letting down his guard against these people.
“Please!”
Li Wei bowed to the Grand Elder, who nodded, then took a deep breath and immediately began to control the Cloud Boat to descend.
“By the way, Fellow Daoist Li, how are the people from the other great factions?”
Just then, the Grand Elder suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Li Wei still smiled and nodded.
“Don’t worry, they will all arrive soon. The selection can begin today.”
“That’s good. The time for the Kun Peng Nest to open is getting closer and closer. If the selection results aren’t out soon, it will be too late.”
The Grand Elder said, while Li Wei on the side smiled and nodded, an expression of everything being under control on his face.
Not long after, the Cloud Boat landed on the ground, and Qin Xuan took the opportunity to look around, observing the situation of the Ling Shou Sect’s Disciples.
The number of Ling Shou Sect Disciples here at this time was also quite large.
Clearly, the Ling Shou Sect also hoped that these Disciples of the Ling Shou Sect could take the opportunity to observe the battle situation.
After looking around, Qin Xuan also gained a basic understanding of the Ling Shou Sect’s situation.
The Realm strength of these Ling Shou Sect Disciples was not weak, and judging from the Spirit Beasts they controlled, these Spirit Beasts were all quite powerful.
From this perspective, the combat power of these Disciples was not entirely useless.
However, that was all there was to it.
“Insignificant.”
Shaking his head slightly, Qin Xuan did not pay too much attention to these people from the Ling Shou Sect.
He was waiting for the arrival of people from the other few Sects.
“They’re here!”
Just as Li Wei and the Grand Elder were exchanging pleasantries, a few sharp-eyed Ling Shou Sect Disciples hurriedly spoke up.
Immediately, Li Wei cupped his hands.
“Fellow Daoist, please wait. It should be the Wan Jian Sect arriving. I will go and greet them!”
Li Wei cupped his hands and immediately flew up, stepping on that fiery red Spirit Bird.
Looking at the Spirit Bird, which was several zhang tall, Qin Xuan also felt a wave of envy.
This Spirit Bird was indeed good!
