Chapter 108 Heavenly Sword Sect and Returning Origin Sword Realm

Since learning that the True Qi Sect would arrive in three days, Qin Wu couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.

Over the next three days, powerful figures from all sides gathered, mostly the best of the younger generation.

Some people even managed to exert a slight pressure on Qin Wu, clearly indicating that these individuals had progressed far beyond the Mind Nourishing Heart and Opening Meridians Realm.

Ordinary cultivators at the Heart Nourishing and Meridian Opening Realm are nothing special in front of them.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

Many prodigies have emerged from various regions, but Qin Wu has yet to see a true master of the True Qi Sect.

Just as he was wondering if Cang Xuanwu was lying to him, a message suddenly arrived.

The experts from the Heavenly Sword Sect have arrived.

The Heavenly Sword Sect is undoubtedly a powerful sect specializing in true qi, with formidable strength, and all its disciples wield swords.

While it may not be strong in other aspects, it is extremely powerful when it comes to swordsmanship.

Upon hearing this news, all the elite talents gathered in Linshui City were utterly shocked. They never expected that the Heavenly Sword Sect would arrive at this crucial moment.

Liu Sanxing immediately found Qin Wu and informed him of the news. At the same time, Liu Sanxing also said with some shock, "According to our intelligence, the first True Qi Sect was not expected to appear for another two months. How come the Heavenly Sword Sect has arrived two months ahead of schedule?"

His eyes were filled with disbelief.

However, he continued, "Brother Qin, since meeting you, I've realized how vast this world is. With my current strength, joining these True Qi sects would be extremely difficult. But I believe you will succeed. I wonder if you're interested in the Heavenly Sword Sect? From what I know of them, they hold a place among the True Qi sects, but unfortunately, they only know swordsmanship and are lacking in other areas. However, I've never seen you use swordsmanship before, so I don't think the Heavenly Sword Sect is a good choice. The real problem is why they're coming here at this time."

Liu Sanxing helped Qin Wu analyze the situation.

He was very clear about his own strength; with his current abilities, joining a True Qi Sect was almost impossible.

Especially after what happened in Linshui City, the number of martial arts geniuses in the entire city has plummeted. Moreover, once this matter is exposed, it will inevitably cause those True Qi sects to antagonize the people of Linshui City. Since this matter can no longer be concealed, he had long since given up the idea of ​​joining a True Qi sect and is now focused on helping Qin Wu achieve his goal.

Qin Wu said, "I'm not entirely sure either, but I received the news beforehand. As for the Heavenly Sword Sect, I personally don't have much interest in that sect."

Qin Wu shook his head. He had indeed never used a sword, but that didn't mean he was ignorant of swordsmanship. In this life, he hadn't studied swordsmanship, but in his previous life, he had a very good understanding of it. However, these sword techniques lacked a trace of true martial arts essence, so in this world, they were like Tai Chi and Bajiquan—they could provide some assistance, but couldn't be used as a means to kill enemies or break through enemy lines. Moreover, he had no intention of continuing to practice swordsmanship. Currently, eighty percent of his strength lay in his fist techniques. His main focus in the future would naturally be fist techniques, and his secondary cultivation would rely on his current absolute strength advantage, choosing a heavy weapon like the Guan Dao. Only such a weapon could unleash his absolute strength advantage, while swordsmanship required more dexterity and mental exertion, making it a less desirable choice for him, and naturally, he wouldn't consider it.

Despite saying that, Qin Wu didn't hesitate at all and left the residence with Liu Sanxing. Now that the people from the Heavenly Sword Sect had arrived, as the first sect to arrive, they had to witness this sect's actions. Presumably, other sects wouldn't be too different from this one, and it would serve as a reference.

The two continued on their way until they arrived at the location of the powerful figures from the Heavenly Sword Sect.

When they arrived, a number of powerful individuals had already gathered there.

Liu Sanxing glanced at the crowd around him and then said, "Brother Qin, look, these are all renowned experts. Some I've heard of, but others I don't. That's Mo Lianqiong, the Cangshan Swordsman. His swordsmanship is extraordinary; he entered the Nourishing Heart and Opening Meridians realm several years ago, and perhaps he's reached the mid-stage now. His swordsmanship is incredibly powerful; even those in the late stage of the Nourishing Heart and Opening Meridians realm might not be his match. And that one next to him is his mortal enemy. This person has also already entered the mid-stage of the Nourishing Heart and Opening Meridians realm; his strength is extraordinary. The two have been rivals for many years, and I never expected them to stand together at this time. I just don't know why this situation has arisen."

As he said this, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

After all, under normal circumstances, mortal enemies would never stay together. It would be abnormal enough for two people not to fight each other when they meet, let alone stand together as if they were allies.

Qin Wu wasn't surprised at all. He chuckled and said, "These two are indeed quite strong, but that's about it. Many powerful individuals have gathered here, including quite a few who have reached the late stage of the Heart Nourishing and Meridian Opening Realm. Under these circumstances, two people at the mid-stage of the Heart Nourishing and Meridian Opening Realm, without joining forces, probably have no chance against the others. Although they are mortal enemies, they at least understand each other. If their goals are aligned—both aiming to join the Heavenly Sword Sect—then joining forces isn't impossible."

Qin Wu had already noticed the Zhou siblings hiding nearby. The two siblings stood together, but it was clear that Zhou Qiao'er still harbored resentment towards Zhou Yan, the Black Demon Blade, so she pouted and refused to look at him. Zhou Yan, on the other hand, looked wary as he glanced at the surrounding crowd.

Upon hearing Qin Wu's words, Liu Sanxing was startled.

He then realized that there were actually so many late-stage Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators here. It should be noted that those who dared to appear here were basically the chosen ones of heaven; those powerful but older individuals were not included. Even if they wanted to join a True Qi Sect, they wouldn't have the opportunity, as no sect would recruit them.

He sighed helplessly, then said, "It seems I have truly underestimated the heroes of the world."

He originally thought that with his own strength, even if he couldn't compare to those top experts, the difference wouldn't be too great. Although he said he didn't have much hope of joining a True Qi Sect, how could that really be true?

But now it seems that such an opportunity is indeed no longer possible.

He was only disappointed for a moment before his spirits lifted again.

Just as the two were talking, a strong and resonant voice suddenly rang out in the room.

Then a sword flew from afar and stuck straight into the marble floor.

Seeing this sword, everyone knew that the Heavenly Sword Sect was coming. The next second, a figure soared through the air from afar. This person was incredibly fast, covering over a hundred meters in the blink of an eye, appearing in the center of the crowd. The moment this person appeared, immense pressure was placed on everyone present, even Qin Wu. The feeling this person gave him was no less than, and perhaps even stronger than, the feeling Cang Xuanwu had given him before. Truly worthy of being a prestigious True Qi sect.

Just then, the man spoke calmly: "Gentlemen, now that you've arrived here, you must all be interested in joining my Heavenly Sword Sect. The requirements for joining are very simple: the Heavenly Sword Sect only needs absolutely sharp swords; nothing else matters. So, if you are confident in your swordsmanship, then demonstrate it. As long as I see your swordsmanship, everything else is secondary."

These words greatly excited everyone.

They had thought about martial arts competitions, about arenas, and even about one-on-one duels, but they never imagined that simply demonstrating their swordsmanship skills would be enough.

But just then, a loud voice suddenly rang out: "Brother Wang, sneaking away is not something a gentleman would do."

As they spoke, another sword appeared on the marble floor, its surface radiating crimson patterns, penetrating even deeper into the ground than the previous one. Upon hearing this sound, the Heavenly Sword Sect expert's expression immediately turned ugly. He looked in the direction of the sound and coldly said, "You, surnamed Huang, let's compete fairly. Why talk about such things? If you truly have the ability, then let's spar and see whether your Returning Origin Sword Realm sword is stronger, or the sword of my Heavenly Sword Sect is superior?"

Just then, a second figure landed in the center of the crowd, facing off against the Heavenly Sword Sect expert from afar.

Upon hearing these words, the expert at the Returning Origin Sword Realm remained unfazed, even displaying a hint of disdain: "I am the Azure Orchid Sword Master. What makes you think you can fight me?"

"You're asking for it!"

The Heavenly Sword Sect expert was extremely furious. He leaped forward, transforming into a bolt of lightning as he charged towards his opponent. However, at the same moment, as his sword passed by, he drew it and unleashed a powerful strike that cleaved through the air, directly aimed at the Azure Orchid Sword Master. The Azure Orchid Sword Master, seeing this, remained unfazed. He simply drew his own sword from the ground and countered with a swift, equal strike. The two swords clashed, exploding with a deafening roar.

The earth cracked, and rocks and soil flew everywhere. This scene far exceeded everyone's understanding of the limits of martial arts.

"As expected of a True Qi expert, being able to project True Qi is terrifying! Such immense power from a distance of tens of meters—if it struck me, I wouldn't stand a chance!"

"You actually think you can get away with this? If that sword were to come down on me, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to leave a whole corpse."

While the sheer power of the two combatants greatly shocked everyone, they were mostly excited. After all, their goal was to join these two sects, and in their view, joining these sects would give them the possibility of achieving the same combat strength as these two individuals.

The two clashed instantly, their speed was extremely fast.

Moreover, their fighting style is ruthless, with every move aimed at the opponent's vital points. Clearly, the clash between these two factions is not a simple exchange of blows, but rather a fight where, given the chance, they would do anything to ensure the other's utter annihilation.

This made Qin Wu realize even more how ruthless these True Qi sects could be. However, he still had some doubts: if that was the case, why would they all be recruiting disciples here at the same time?

Just then, a voice rang out beside him: "Kid, see that? This is the True Qi Sect. Everyone wants to join a True Qi Sect, but actually joining doesn't necessarily bring any good. These people fight each other, who knows what the final outcome will be? In my opinion, you'd be better off joining our Tianwu Mountain. We don't have these problems internally, and we're united against outsiders. No matter what enemies you've offended, we'll definitely cover for you."

Cang Xuanwu had somehow arrived beside Qin Wu. His eyes were filled with greed as he looked at Qin Wu. This kid was just what he wanted, and his strength and talent were top-notch. So he was really unwilling to give up on Qin Wu.

Upon seeing Cang Xuanwu approach, Qin Wu asked with some curiosity, "Senior? What grudge does the Heavenly Sword Sect have with this Returning Origin Sword Realm? Why is this happening?"

Qin Wu was very concerned about this matter, after all, he and Guiyuan Sword Realm had a huge conflict. If the other party didn't die, then he was very likely to die in the future. He had heard very clearly that this person was called Canglan Sword Master, and the Sword Slave Master was also a Sword Master. In the future, he would definitely clash with him because of the Dragon Tiger Gang's daughter. In fact, even if the other party didn't cause him any trouble, he would never let this person go. After all, since his debut, many of his troubles had been caused by this person. If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have encountered so much trouble at all. Under these circumstances, the two were already mortal enemies.

Cang Xuanwu curled his lip and said, "Just two cowardly sects. Otherwise, what reason would they have to be so arrogant?" He first made a sarcastic remark, and then said, "I can't tell you about this, but if you join, that's a different story." Then he looked at Qin Wu with anticipation in his eyes. He really wanted Qin Wu.

Unfortunately, it seems that Qin Wu has no good feelings towards their Tianwu Mountain, so he is extremely disappointed and doesn't know how to persuade Qin Wu to join them.

However, it's never a bad thing to maintain good relations.
