Entering the Pavilion
Outside the Sword Cleansing Pool, the geniuses who had passed the trial were currently condensing their sword intent.
Streaks of resplendent light flashed past, transforming into various sword intent phantoms in the air. Some were scorching hot, some were berserk, and their auras varied. The sword pressure they emitted was also different.
On the lone peak, Lei Yuanguang, Tang Yunhuan, and Su Lengliu were still standing silently. Their gazes looked down, and from time to time, a gleam of light flashed through their eyes. They looked rather satisfied.
The trial this time was related to the Sword Cleansing Pool. The geniuses of the various empires and kingdoms had all gathered here. The talent of these people could be said to be outstanding, so the sword intent they condensed naturally wouldn't be too weak.
Chu Xingyun sat cross-legged on the flat ground not far from the Sword Cleansing Pool.
His eyes were closed as he constantly adjusted his breathing. At the same time, his mind was spinning rapidly as he recalled the scenes that had just occurred.
"I've come into contact with so many sword masters before even stepping into Wanjian Pavilion. Although this is somewhat unexpected, it's not a bad thing. It can allow me to understand the strength of Wanjian Pavilion. In particular, Fan Wujie's appearance has allowed me to confirm those rumours!"
Fan Wujie's figure slowly surfaced in Chu Xingyun's mind. The cold gleam in the depths of his eyes became even thicker.
In his previous life, Chu Xingyun had never come into contact with Wanjian Pavilion.
When he rose to prominence, Wanjian Pavilion had already changed. Many generations of people had changed, but Fan Wujie had firmly held onto the position of pavilion master and ruled Wanjian Pavilion for a hundred years.
At that time, Chu Xingyun had heard many rumours about how ruthless and tyrannical Fan Wujie was. In order to achieve his goals, he would do anything, even sacrificing the benefits of Wanjian Pavilion.
Therefore, from the moment Fan Wujie appeared, Chu Xingyun had been secretly observing Fan Wujie. This person's words and actions seemed gentle and uncompetitive, but in the depths of his heart, he was constantly scheming.
When the Profound Shattering Sword appeared, Chu Xingyun's sharp senses discovered that there was a cold and gloomy aura inside the sword. That aura had not even touched his body, but it gave him the feeling of a maggot in his bones, extremely cold and gloomy.
So, Chu Xingyun directly rejected Fan Wujie and refused to accept any help. For the time being, he didn't want to have any contact with him.
"With Fan Wujie's ruthless nature, he will definitely remember what happened today. Although he won't attack me, he will definitely make some small moves. From the looks of it, before I investigate in secret, I need to focus on my cultivation and increase my trump cards."
"All of my actions have to be planned carefully. I can't be careless!"
Chu Xingyun repeatedly warned himself in his heart. He opened his eyes and hid all his emotions. He stood up and walked in the direction of the Sword Cleansing Pool.
While he was thinking, all the geniuses had already condensed their own sword intent. There was a mixture of joy and worry on their faces, but there was even more anticipation. They wanted to immediately enter Wanjian Pavilion.
Chang Chixiao's group had already left. They didn't have the face to continue staying here, so they simply left. At the head of the group, Yun Changqing stood upright. He raised his head and looked into the distance, as if waiting for something.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! At this moment, a fierce gust of wind blew over. Vicious Qi wreaked havoc, sweeping up clouds of dust.
Everyone looked over and saw that there were more than ten huge flying spirit beasts in the void in front of them. They spread their wings and covered a small part of the sky. Moreover, their speed was astonishingly fast.
Not long after, those flying spirit beasts landed in front of the group. Each of them could hold a hundred people, and their vicious auras filled the sky.
"Get on the flying spirit beasts and follow me." Yun Changqing was the first to get on the flying spirit beast. Then, the group hurriedly followed, not daring to be the slightest bit slow.
Whoosh!
The flying spirit beasts rose into the air and flapped their wings. They immediately flew into the distance. They passed through the Sword Cleansing Mountain Range and arrived at the foot of a chain of mountains.
"In front of us is the Ten-thousand Swords Mountain, the foundation of Wanjian Pavilion." Yun Changqing stretched out his hand and pointed forward. There was a trace of pride in his voice.
The crowd gazed into the distance. In the chain of mountains, there were peaks everywhere. They were as straight as swords. The peaks were shaded by green trees and many palaces had been built on them.
Countless waterfalls hung upside down from the peaks and poured down in torrents, like countless jade dragons.
In the deepest part of the peaks, there was a huge city in the sky covered by clouds. It floated in the air and had a majestic aura. Even looking at it made people feel like they were worshipping it.
"Is this where Wanjian Pavilion is located?" The crowd exclaimed one after another. The scene in front of them was too shocking. Even the Emperor's Palace could not be compared to it. The difference was too great.
"Wanjian Pavilion!" Chu Xingyun was not surprised. Instead, a wisp of light flashed in his eyes. But soon, this wisp of light dissipated and returned to calmness. No one noticed the change.
Soon, the group arrived at the foot of Ten-thousand Swords Mountain.
Under the gazes of the crowd, seven or eight figures flew over. They first bowed to Yun Changqing and the others. Then, their palms flew and continuously slapped the void, creating complicated marks.
Rumbling sounds rang out, and in front of the towering mountain in front of them, there were actually tens of thousands of sword lights blooming. The sword shadows flew, and the light pierced through the air, accompanied by a frenzied storm, blowing up everyone's robes.
"Sword Matrix!" Chu Xingyun's eyes were sharp. He quickly discovered the source of these sword lights.
Wanjian Pavilion was good at swords and sword matrices. Almost every disciple knew how to set up sword matrices to defend against the enemy together.
He had experienced this firsthand.
The sword matrix in front of them was enormous. It enveloped the entire Ten-thousand Swords Mountain. Its level was probably at the seventh level. Moreover, this was only the Protective Mountain Matrix. In Wanjian Pavilion, there would be more sword matrices.
Under Yun Changqing's lead, the group successfully entered Wanjian Pavilion. As they passed through, many people exclaimed and looked around. It was as if they had entered a new world.
Even Xia Qingcheng couldn't help but widen her eyes as she gasped in shock.
In response, Yun Changqing and the others looked at each other and smiled. They did not stop them. From time to time, they would open their mouths to explain, letting the crowd know more about Wanjian Pavilion.
"When you first entered Wanjian Pavilion, you are only ordinary disciples. Before you become true disciples, this is where you will live." The flying spirit beast arrived at a wide flat area. Yun Changqing pointed to the many courtyards in front of them and spoke loudly to the crowd.
The disciples of Wanjian Pavilion were divided into ordinary disciples and true disciples, regardless of whether they were new or old.
Those in the Earth Spirit Realm were ordinary disciples. Once they entered the Heavenly Spirit Realm, they would become true disciples. The resources and status they would receive were completely different.
The area that Yun Changqing pointed to was the residential area for ordinary disciples. Everyone had their own courtyard. The courtyard was well-decorated and had everything they needed. They were quite far from each other and were very suitable for cultivation.
"Wanjian Pavilion is indeed one of the six great sects of the Northern Wilderness Region. Even ordinary disciples are treated so well."
"I've heard that the residences of the core disciples are located at the peak of the mountain. Every residence is comparable to the palace of a sovereign. Not only are there menial disciples assigned to the residences, but even pill refinement rooms and smithing rooms are well-built.
The crowd discussed in low voices. The fire in their eyes burned even brighter. They all wanted to enter the Heavenly Spirit Realm as soon as possible to obtain better living conditions and cultivation resources.
"There are already people in the residential area. They will take you to your courtyards. Tomorrow, there will be people who will show you around Wanjian Pavilion." Yun Changqing waved his hand and the flying spirit beasts began to descend.
"Luo Yun!"
At this moment, Lei Yuanguang suddenly opened his mouth and called out to Chu Xingyun.
Chu Xing Yun turned around and saw that Lei Yuanguang had landed beside him. Lei Yuanguang said loudly, "Your residence is not here, it's over there …"
His voice was extremely loud like thunder, startling everyone.
