Tianlu mountain was located north of the Green Sky Sect, not far from the center of the sect.

The disciples of the Green Sky Sect had always called it the Northern Mountain. There was a large spirit stone mine under the mountain. It was not an exaggeration to say that this was the foundation of the Green Sky Sect.

Ever since the Green Sky Sect had settled down in the Green Sky Mountain range, the spirit stone mine in the Northern Mountain had always been firmly in the hands of the Green Sky Sect. Even when the Green Sky Sect had fallen so far, they still wouldn’t easily hand over the ownership.

As for the East Sun Sect, it was only a young sect in Longyan County. However, due to their extremely overbearing style of doing things, they had once beaten all of the older sects in Longyan County.

Previously, the Green Sky Sect was the number one sect in Longyan County. Under the deliberate suppression of the East Sun Sect, there were now less than two hundred disciples with mediocre cultivation talent within the sect.

Not to mention the huge family business of the Green Sky Sect that had been nibbled away by the East Sun Sect. After so many years, there was not much of anything left.

Now, all the cultivators in Longyan County knew that the East Sun Sect was about to be promoted to become a sixth rank sect. However, the sect was still short of land.

As long as the East Sun Sect could completely occupy the Northern Mountain area of the Green Sky Sect before the inspection of the cultivation officials three months later, the promotion would be definite.

This was also the reason why the East Sun Sect members had been coming to the Green Sky Sect to provoke them recently.

Xiaowu whose full name was Wu Mingyu had joined the Green Sky Sect at the same time as Ming Yuxuan. However, due to the great difference in their talent, Ming Yuxuan had long been promoted to the inner sect while Xiaowu had only joined the inner sect a few years ago.

Originally, Xiaowu had thought that he would at most be able to reach the Black Core Realm before his death.

He never expected that the sect master would refine a magical treasure called Wonder that had the effect of increasing the sect disciples’ talent in Sword Dap.

Even if his talent was average, he was also blessed by fate. Not only did he successfully comprehend the complete sword intent, but his realm had also risen to the advanced stage of the Condensing Reality Realm. If he added in the ability he had as a sword cultivator, even if his opponent was at the beginning stage of the Origin Building Realm, he believed that he could fight against the opponent.

Xiaowu sat on the small hill opposite the mine, watching the outer sect disciples carry out baskets of newly mined spirit stones. He sighed in amazement at the sect master’s strength while still being vigilant of the situation around him.

The five people from the East Sun Sect appeared above the spirit stone mine without hiding their tracks. With one look, it was obvious that this group of people couldn’t hold themselves back and came looking for trouble again.

The leader of the team this time was the same disciple who had led the team last time, and it was also the same disciple who had injured Xiaowu severely with a sneak attack.

Both parties were enemies, and their eyes were red with hate the moment they saw each other.

“Why is it still the defeated dog guarding the mine? Is there no one left in the Green Sky Sect?”

“Senior brother, do you think such a short time is enough for this defeated dog to recover from his injuries?”

“Hmm? Wasn’t our lesson for you enough last time? Are you still rushing to the Northern Mountain to look for a beating?”

…

The people of the East Sun Sect had always liked to make the enemy’s hatred for them grow before a fight. It seemed that if they “won” with words, winning with their fists would be easier too.

“If senior sister hadn’t shown mercy last time, did you think you could have made it back alive?” Wu Mingyu was a little angry after being ridiculed. It was true that he had embarrassed the sect last time. If the senior sister who was the chief lawyer hadn’t come in time and intimidated the people of the East Sun Sect, they would have succeeded last time.

There were still many outer sect disciples in the mine behind him. He couldn’t give the people of the East Sun Sect a chance. He had to end the battle quickly.

As soon as he finished saying that, Xiaowu didn’t give the other party a chance to speak. He drew his sword and attacked.

Holding the hilt of his sword with his right hand, Xiaowu softly said, “The sword’s name is Pine.”

He drew his sword and simply slashed

The sword Qi attacked the five people of the East Sun Sect.

The people from the East Sun Sect didn’t expect that Xiaowu would suddenly attack with a sword.

The sword Qi was directed at all five. After blocking the sword Qi in a fluster, the five people from the East Sun Sect looked at Xiaowu again with fear in their eyes.

The leader of the group had the highest cultivation at the beginning stage of the Origin Building Realm. He quickly regained his composure and sneered, “A sword, sword intent, and sword Qi. All that’s missing is the natal flying sword. Each is better than the last, what an outstanding sword cultivator.”

Xiaowu’s expression remained serious. He did not say anything. Instead, he focused on accumulating his power, then he slashed horizontally.

The sword light spread out in the air like a sparkling water surface.

The expressions of the five people from the East Sun Sect changed drastically. This was another attack that was directed at all five of them.
