The four Sects were led by the four elders. Each of them was a member of the Ten Rising Stars.
No, because Gu Yaoyang was defeated by Chen Zong, he was replaced by Chen Zong. However, it was undeniable that Gu Yaoyang was qualified to be one of the Ten Rising Stars.
Among the four, Li Xiaoyun from the Tianshui Sect was the strongest, at the peak of Lv 5.
Next was Gu Yaoyang from the Zhenyang Sect, at the middle stage of Lv 5.
Next was Chen Zong from the Sword Sect, at the peak of Lv 4.
The weakest was Yang Shiqi from the Ao Mei Villa, at the middle stage of Lv 4.
Chen Zong also saw other people from the Royal Family of the Longtu Empire.
The guards of Earth Spirit Mountain were the Extreme Mortal Realm warriors sent by the Dragon Diagram Royal Family. There was also a group of more than a hundred warriors in the late stage of the Genuine Martial Realm. They were all wearing armor and had cold auras. It was obvious that they were experienced warriors.
Chen Zong also saw six other people who were going to cultivate in the Spiritual Pool. They were all from the Royal Family of the Longtu Empire and had the blood of the Royal Family.
Chen Zong felt that one of them looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before. However, Chen Zong was sure that this was the first time he had seen him.
That person glanced around and his eyes fell on Chen Zong's face. His eyes became cold and murderous.
"You're Chen Zong." The person spoke in a cold and murderous tone. "Soon, you will die at my hands. Remember, my name is Long Shaoyuan."
"Long Shaoyuan …" Chen Zong pondered for a moment before remembering that this person's face was somewhat similar to Long Shaojun's. Combined with his name, he was most likely related to Long Shaojun by blood. He might even be Long Shaojun's brother.
"Just because you're at Lv 5?" Chen Zong retorted.
"You're just a Sword Son from a low-ranked Sect. I don't know what gives you the right to be so arrogant." The woman next to Long Shaoyuan raised her eyebrows and sneered.
"Some people think they're so arrogant just because they have some skills. Apologize," another arrogant-looking young man said to Chen Zong in a tone full of superiority.
The other three didn't say anything, but there was a sneer on their faces and a hint of playfulness in their eyes.
They looked down on Chen Zong.
Because they were members of the Longtu Imperial Family, they had the direct bloodline of the Longtu Imperial Family. Moreover, each of them had an extraordinary background. In comparison, Chen Zong was just a Sword Son of the Sword Sect. Perhaps he had some status in the Tianjiang Prefecture, but in the entire Longtu Empire, he was nothing.
Hundreds of years ago, the Longtu Imperial Family had unified this area and renamed it the Longtu Region. Since then, the members of the Longtu Imperial Family had slowly developed a sense of superiority and thought that they were better than others.
In fact, the Longtu Imperial Family's bloodline was extraordinary. Those who had the direct bloodline had a high chance of awakening their own bloodline, which would increase their talent and cultivation by leaps and bounds.
Gu Yaoyang sneered. [This Chen Zong is really overestimating himself. He even dares to provoke the Longtu Imperial Family.]
Li Xiaoyun and Yang Shiqi didn't react.
The four Senior Elders didn't say anything because this was a fight between the younger generation. If they wanted to interfere, the Transcendent from the Longtu Imperial Family wouldn't sit idly by.
"If I don't apologize, what are you going to do?" Chen Zong said unhurriedly. His words were as sharp as a sword, and his aura condensed into an invisible sword. It was shocking.
Long Shaoyuan and the others frowned, but their faces darkened.
"If you don't apologize, fine. I'll make sure you can't even absorb a trace of World Energy." The person who asked Chen Zong to apologize said coldly.
The others didn't look happy. Obviously, they had made up their minds to deal with Chen Zong.
"Hahahaha, stupid guy. If you can't absorb World Energy, you can't break through, but I can. You're finished." Gu Yaoyang laughed secretly.
The enemy was weak, and he was strong. What could be better than this?
"You can try." Chen Zong wasn't afraid.
Seeing that Chen Zong was stubborn and difficult to deal with, Long Shaoyuan and the others shut up. They had already made up their minds to not let Chen Zong absorb any World Energy.
"Time's up. The ten of you can enter the Spirit Pool." The Transcendent from the Longtu Imperial Family who was guarding the Spirit Pool said. His voice was deep and powerful, which shocked the four Senior Elders.
Fifth Layer Mortal Realm!
This person's cultivation was at least Fifth Layer Mortal Realm.
Long Shaoyuan and the other five took the lead and jumped up, followed by Chen Zong and the other three.
At the top of Earth Spirit Mountain, there was a natural hole. It was about ten meters in length and width. It was irregularly shaped, and it was filled with water. The water was pale white and emitted a unique fragrance. It also contained a shocking amount of Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi. It was extremely pure.
In other places of Earth Spirit Mountain, the density of World Energy was very average.
This was the Spirit Pool, where the essence of the Earth Veins gathered.
Long Shaoyuan and the others jumped into the Spirit Pool one after another, each occupying a corner of the Spirit Pool, leaving Chen Zong and the other three in the middle.
The World Energy in the Spirit Pool was evenly distributed. Long Shaoyuan and the others occupied the four corners, so there was enough space for them to absorb the World Energy.
Whether Chen Zong and the other three were in the middle or the edge, they would be restricted and affected.
But there was a rule that they couldn't fight in the Spirit Pool, or they would be disqualified. In serious cases, it might even affect the next allocation.
This had always been the case, so every time, the disciples of the four Sect didn't get much.
Chen Zong landed and chose to be in the center. Gu Yaoyang was there as well, while Li Xiaoyun and Yang Shiqi chose to be on the edge.
They didn't say anything. Once they entered the Spirit Pool, they immediately activated their martial arts to the extreme and absorbed the pure World Energy in the Spirit Pool.
With Long Shaoyuan and the others as the center, the Spirit Pool water in all directions flowed towards them. But as Chen Zong and the other three activated their martial arts, some of the Spirit Pool water flowed towards them.
"Let's work together and make sure he can't absorb any of the World Energy." Long Shaoyuan's voice rang out, not hiding his intention to deal with Chen Zong.
At the same time, the six of them began to circulate their techniques, changing their direction slightly and converging toward Chen Zong. They affected the spirit pond water around him, causing it to disperse and flow toward the six of them.
The pure World Energy was contained in the Spirit Pool water. Chen Zong could feel that the World Energy that was about to be absorbed into his body was attracted by the six powerful forces and was dispersing towards the six people.
When the twentieth level of the Art of Traversing was activated to the extreme, the power would flow through the body and even into the hair. This was something that others couldn't do, unless they had also reached the completion of the Qi Refining Realm.
This was where Chen Zong's advantage. Because of this, Chen Zong's efficiency in absorbing the Spirit Pool water would increase exponentially. Moreover, Chen Zong had reached the twentieth level of the Art of Traversing. In terms of level, he was equivalent to a warrior at the peak of Lv 5 True Martial Realm who had cultivated a Heaven Level Martial Art.
Among the six people in Long Shaoyuan's group, the highest cultivation was at the peak of Lv 5 True Martial Realm. The level of their martial arts was similar to that of a warrior at the peak of Lv 5 True Martial Realm. In comparison, Chen Zong had a greater advantage.
Suddenly, the dispersing Spirit Pool water gathered again, and the Spirit Pool water flowed towards Chen Zong. This scene surprised the six people in Long Shaoyuan's group.
They didn't expect Chen Zong to be able to fight back and absorb the Spirit Pool water when the six of them joined forces.
The six people immediately increased their strength and activated their martial arts to the extreme to compete with Chen Zong.
The Spirit Pool water in the Spirit Pool was constantly fluctuating. Countless ripples collided with each other, causing chaos in the surroundings. Even Li Xiaoyun, Gu Yaoyang, and Yang Shiqi couldn't absorb much World Energy. They activated their martial arts to the extreme, but they could barely absorb a little World Energy.
The Spirit Pool was in chaos. This had never happened before. In the past, the Dragon Diagram Imperial Family had always had the upper hand, absorbing at least seventy to eighty percent of the Spirit Pool water.
This time, they encountered Chen Zong.
It was not inferior to a martial art at the peak of Lv 5 True Martial Realm. Coupled with the advantage of the completion of the Force Training Realm, the effect was multiplied. It was comparable to a martial artist at Lv 6 True Martial Realm who had cultivated a Heaven Level martial art.
Long Shaoyuan and the other five people couldn't interfere with Chen Zong.
However, with the six of them working together, they could still contend with Chen Zong for a while.
However, this kind of resistance was somewhat difficult. Gradually, more Spirit Pool water flowed towards Chen Zong, and a large amount of World Energy poured into Chen Zong's body. This World Energy was very pure. As soon as it entered Chen Zong's body, it was quickly refined and absorbed. It was converted into Zongheng True Force, increasing the Zongheng True Force rapidly.
This resistance didn't last long, because Chen Zong's cultivation had broken through.
The early stage of Lv 5 True Martial Realm!
The twenty-first level of the Zongheng Art!
Suddenly, the suction force became stronger. More Spirit Pool water rushed towards Chen Zong, and more World Energy was absorbed by Chen Zong, which began to affect Long Shaoyuan and the other five people.
The stalemate was broken, and Li Xiaoyun and the other two people were able to absorb more World Energy to refine.
"Damn it!" Long Shaoyuan and the other five people's faces suddenly turned ugly. Originally, they wanted to interfere with Chen Zong, so that Chen Zong couldn't absorb World Energy. They didn't expect that in the end, Chen Zong would interfere, and the amount of World Energy they absorbed would decrease.
No matter how hard they tried, no matter how much they wanted to fight back, they couldn't. Most of the World Energy was still absorbed by Chen Zong, but they could still absorb some World Energy more or less, just not as much as they had expected.
Long Shaoyuan and the other five people's faces turned ugly.
Chen Zong activated his martial arts while absorbing the World Energy. At the same time, he was paying attention to Long Shaoyuan and the other's movements to prevent them from attacking him.
Although they would be disqualified if they started a fight here, it was hard to say if they would do it out of anger.
"Let's just do it. At most, no one will absorb anymore." One of them secretly sent a message.
"Don't be rash. This is a once in a decade opportunity, and it was not easy for us to get this opportunity. We can't miss it, or it will be too late for regrets." Another person quickly said.
