Gao Luoshan walked out of Chen Zong's courtyard dejectedly, his face full of frustration.
Defeating Gao Luoshan was within Chen Zong's expectations. There was nothing to be proud of, so he continued his closed-door cultivation.
"Recently, the monsters in the Western Wilderness have become more active," said an elder of the Real Martial Alliance.
"Ten years have passed, so the number of monsters has increased. It's only natural that they're more active," said another elder.
In the huge hall, there were a total of 13 seats. Each seat was unique and unforgettable. The 13 seats surrounded an oval-shaped table, and there was a person sitting on each seat. They all looked to be at least 40 years old.
These were the thirteen elders of the Real Martial Alliance. They were the thirteen people with the highest status in the entire Eastern Land. They controlled the Real Martial Alliance and the lives of many people.
"Ten years. It's about time to clean up the Western Wilderness."
"Since that's the case, let's pass down the order. Ask all the major forces to send warriors of the Qi Refining Realm into the Western Wilderness to clean up the monsters."
After a few sentences, the decision was made. This was not the first time.
Very quickly, the order was sent out to all the forces. The Four Great Academies were naturally among them.
Cleaning up the monsters in the Western Wilderness was a matter of life and death for the human race.
Hundreds of years ago, the Demonic Beast Army that destroyed the three kingdoms mainly came from the Hundred Beast Mountain Range. The Western Wilderness was the Hundred Beast Mountain Range's first stop after entering the Eastern Land. There were a large number of Demonic Beasts living there, mainly Level 1 to Level 5 Demonic Beasts, which corresponded to Qi Blood Realm martial artists to Level 9 Qi Refining Realm martial artists.
The four academies and all the other major forces immediately took action.
The Black Demon Sect in the dark also received the news and took action.
In the Real Sword Academy, all the disciples were gathered, regardless of whether they were official disciples or guardian disciples.
"This trip is very dangerous. If you're not careful, you'll die. So, you must be careful. Save your life first, then kill the enemy." An elder of the Real Sword Academy said loudly, "Also, because it's very dangerous and you may die, you have one chance to back out."
The True Sword Academy was gathering their disciples, and so were the other three academies.
In the end, none of the core disciples of the True Sword Academy, the Seven Sword Stars, and the disciples on the Iron Sword Ranking withdrew. There were more than ten disciples who had gone through the third turn of the Jin Training Realm who withdrew. As for the disciples who had gone through the second and first turn of the Jin Training Realm, less than half of them withdrew.
No one looked down on them, because it was very likely that they would never return. Survival was everyone's instinct.
Even though Chen Zong knew it was dangerous, he still did not hesitate.
Demonic beasts were the natural enemies of the human race. Practicing martial arts was to strengthen oneself, to pursue the path of the strong, and at the same time, to defend against demonic beasts.
The destruction of the Three Great Kingdoms was due to the Demonic Beasts. In the current era of True Martial Arts, the threat of the Demonic Beasts was more important. Almost everyone would be instilled with similar ideas from the beginning of their martial arts training.
Killing demonic beasts was the responsibility of every martial artist.
There was no need for any general mobilization. Under the leadership of a few True Martial Realm elders, the group of disciples immediately set off in a grandiose manner to clear out the demonic beasts.
The Fiend Sword Star, Fei Yuanji, gave Chen Zong a meaningful look, which made Chen Zong realize that this trip to the Western Wilderness might not be so simple.
The Jin Training Realm warriors of the other three academies and other forces also began to move and set off for the Western Wilderness.
The Western Wilderness belonged to the Eastern Continent. It was considered to be the western border of the Eastern Continent and connected to the main mountain range of the Hundred Beast Mountain. Even if they hurried without stopping from the True Sword Academy, it would still take more than ten days to get there.
With a True Martial Realm elder leading the way and many powerful Qi Refining Realm disciples, they would not encounter any danger along the way. Of course, there would also not be any small thieves who did not know their place.
During the rest period, the official disciples had their own groups, and the core disciples had their own groups. There were even more subtle divisions between the groups. This was not arranged by the elders, but by their own initiative.
After all, different levels of cultivation and strength would lead to a kind of difference that came from the heart.
For example, on the side of the official disciples, the Seven Sword Stars had their own small groups. The disciples on the Iron Sword Ranking also had their own small groups.
On the side of the core disciples, Chen Zong saw that the Seven Sword Sons had their own small groups. The other disciples also had their own groups according to the difference in their levels of cultivation and strength.
"Brother Chen Zong, my name is Shi Changqing." On the side of the core disciples, a person came over and greeted Chen Zong very politely.
Chen Zong's keen perception told him that the person's cultivation was at the Fifth Turn of the Jin Training Realm, which was very strong.
"Brother Shi." Chen Zong stood up and clasped his hands.
"I've seen you fight a few times. Your potential is amazing." Shi Changqing smiled and said, "When I was at your level of cultivation, I couldn't compare to you at all."
"Brother, you flatter me." Although Chen Zong also thought so in his heart, he could not really say it out loud.
"I don't have anything else to do. I just came over to get to know you. Maybe soon, you will catch up with me and then surpass me." Shi Changqing was very talkative. "So while you are still not as good as me, I quickly came over to make friends with you."
"It's my honor." Chen Zong smiled.
Gao Luoshan looked on coldly, and so did the other Sword Stars. They already knew that Gao Luoshan was defeated by Chen Zong.
On the side of the core disciples, Bai Yuxiao's cold eyes fell on Chen Zong like a sharp sword, wanting to pierce through Chen Zong.
For Bai Yuxiao, hunting monsters in the Western Wilderness was also a good opportunity to kill Chen Zong. Even if Chen Zong's strength had increased, the gap between the Early Stage and the Middle Stage of the Jin Training Realm was very obvious. Moreover, not only was he completely familiar with the power of the Fourth Turn of the Jin Training Realm, his cultivation had also increased to the Middle Stage of the Fourth Turn of the Jin Training Realm. Compared to before, there was a great improvement.
Chen Zong could feel Bai Yuxiao's cold and murderous gaze, but he ignored it. Along the way, Bai Yuxiao would look over from time to time. He was used to it.
For Bai Yuxiao, hunting in the Western Wilderness was an opportunity. For Chen Zong, it was the same.
The improvement of his cultivation and strength brought him more confidence.
After chatting with Shi Changqing for a while, Shi Changqing returned to the group of core disciples.
Then, other core disciples came to talk to Chen Zong.
Compared to the other six Sword Stars, Chen Zong had entered the Real Sword Academy for the shortest time, but he had improved the fastest. His potential was very amazing. As long as he did not die, he would soon catch up with them and then surpass them. It was not a bad thing to get to know him. Maybe they could rely on him in the future.
But there were also some who were disdainful.
"Whether or not he can come back alive from the Western Wilderness is still a problem." This was the thought of some people.
"The potential he has shown now is amazing, but who knows if he will be able to do so in the future." This was the thought of another group of people.
After all, many geniuses had amazing improvements in the early stages, but became mediocre in the later stages.
Several elders gathered together and paid attention to all the movements around them. They also whispered to each other.
After the break, everyone went on their way again.
Rest, travel, and so on. During the break, Chen Zong would take out his sword and cultivate casually, but more often than not, he would meditate.
Currently, the three sword arts he was practicing were the Earth Class Lower Grade Severing Wind Sword Art, the Earth Class Upper Grade Heavenly Light Sword Art, and the Earth Class Extreme Grade Lightning Sword Art.
The Severing Wind Sword Art had reached the Minute Subtlety Realm. Aside from the killer moves of the Heavenly Light Sword Art, everything else had also reached the Minute Subtlety Realm. As for the killer move, Heavenly Light Cleaving Clouds, it was only one step away from reaching the Minute Subtlety Realm. As for the strongest Earth Class Extreme Grade Lightning Sword Art, the tenth move had reached the Perfection Realm. The eleventh move had also reached the Perfection Realm yesterday.
His cultivation had reached the late stage of the Third Transformation of the Qi Refining Realm.
Overall, he was stronger.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed. They finally arrived at the town outside the Western Wilderness, also known as the Western Wilderness Town.
The Western Wilderness Town was built by the Real Martial Arts Alliance. A team of Real Martial Arts Alliance warriors was stationed there, called the Western Wilderness Guard. There were more than two hundred of them, and all of them were Qi Refining Realm warriors.
"So powerful!"
"What a terrifying murderous aura!"
When the disciples of the True Sword Academy saw the Western Barren Guards, their expressions changed.
"So powerful!"
Chen Zong could feel that each of the Western Wilderness Guard's cultivation had surpassed the Third Transformation of the Qi Refining Realm. Their murderous aura was extremely sharp. It was obvious that they had accumulated it through constant battles and killing of monsters. This kind of warrior was very scary. When fighting with them, one would constantly be attacked by their murderous aura. Those who did not have a strong enough mind and willpower would feel their whole body go numb and their limbs go soft. It would be difficult for them to use their full strength.
Maybe the Western Wilderness Guard warriors were not geniuses, but if a Fourth Transformation of the Qi Refining Realm disciple of the Real Sword Academy were to fight with them, the probability of death would be more than sixty percent.
"I am Xu Gaolin, the Deputy Commander of the Western Wilderness Guard. You must be from the Real Sword Academy. Your accommodations have already been arranged for you." A middle-aged man wearing dark red full-body armor and a long saber at his waist strode over. His eyes were cold and sharp. There was a long scar on the left side of his face, as if it had been torn open by a sharp claw. It made him look ferocious. His tone was even harsher.
Chen Zong could feel a terrifying murderous aura and pressure from this person. This was a warrior at the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm. However, it was hard to tell what level of cultivation he was at.
"Lead the way." An elder said. He was a warrior at the True Martial Realm, so there was no need for him to be polite.
"This way please." Xu Gaolin's expression was naturally stiff, but it did not mean that his heart was the same.
Soon, Xu Gaolin led everyone to the accommodations that had been arranged. It was a very large building with many rooms.
"Everyone, in five days, we will officially enter the Western Wilderness to clear out the monsters. During these few days, please stay in your accommodations." Before Xu Gaolin left, he said, "Remember, do not cause any bloodshed or disturb the order here. Otherwise, it will not look good for anyone."
"Don't worry, Deputy Commander." An elder said. Naturally, they would restrain their disciples.
"Thank you for your trouble." Although Xu Gaolin's tone was stiff, he was still polite.
There were more than a hundred disciples of the Real Sword Academy. There were also many rooms, enough for everyone to live in. There would still be some left over. However, this was the residence of the Real Sword Academy. Naturally, it would not be arranged for anyone else.
Warriors from other forces had also arrived. The disciples of the Sky Martial Academy, the Giant Blade Academy, and the Fiery Blood Academy had all gathered.
