CHAPTER 369: CHAPTER 379: TREASURE PILL PAVILION MAKES A MOVE

Bang!

Just as the words fell, Zang Jianfeng was slashed away by a beam of sword light from the Master of Ten Thousand Sword Sect. Despite Zang Jianfeng being extremely powerful, he was negligible in front of the Sect Master.

"Who dares to say Chu Feng is not a disciple of our Ten Thousand Sword Sect, try me! I won’t stop at merely casting him away," the Sect Master declared.

"According to the rules of our Ten Thousand Sword Sect, any disciple above Great Sword Master who wishes to leave the Sect must obtain the personal consent of the Sect Master. Otherwise, it is invalid. I, the Sect Master, will not agree to Chu Feng leaving the Sect, nor have I ever agreed."

"He is still a disciple of our Ten Thousand Sword Sect."

Pu Li’s actions are always so domineering and brute.

"Sound the bell with utmost urgency, eighteen times!" ordered the Sect Master without hesitation.

At the very top of the Sword Pavilion of Ten Thousand Sword Sect, there is a big copper bell that is rarely rung. It is only in emergencies like calamities that could wipe out the sect that the bell would sound.

Now, Pu Li ordered the bell to sound eighteen times, the highest protocol.

Only in the gravest of crises, like the verge of the Sect’s destruction or when very important figures like the Sect Master are under life-threatening danger, would this protocol be enacted. Because after eighteen bell tolls, every member of the Sect, no matter what they are doing, whether in secluded cultivation or otherwise,

Must arrive at once to await the Sect Master’s commands.

"Dong, dong, dong..."

The clear and melodious sound of the bell rose continuously. All disciples and elders of the Sect, no matter what they were doing, rushed towards the Sword Pavilion.

They did not know what had happened?

They only knew it was the Sect’s most urgent summons.

...

Soon, the Sect’s disciples and elders, ranging from the humblest Sword Slave to Instructor Elder Ge Qing and True Disciples, all gathered in the square in front of the Sword Pavilion.

Ge Qing and others, with their high status, would only nod slightly even when meeting the Sect Master.

Even the Sect Master had to take the initiative to greet them with a gesture.

Next to Qiu Tai stood a stern-faced middle-aged man. He appeared to be around forty, and his entire being was like an ancient and sealed Supreme Treasure Sword, standing tall.

A casual glance could easily overlook him.

But to the arrogant Qiu Tai and the high-ranking Sect Elders, they all held deep respect and fear for this man.

This unremarkable, low-profile middle-aged man is none other than Sima Zhen, the top-ranked True Disciple of Ten Thousand Sword Sect.

It was said he was always in secluded cultivation, and he would probably not emerge easily if it were not for the Sect’s urgent eighteen bell tolls.

Besides Sima Zhen, there were several unfamiliar faces that also attracted much attention.

Because those three silver-haired elders in Purple Gold Robes stood proudly behind the Sect Master with Ge Qing.

This indicated that the status of Ge Qing and these three elders was even more venerable than that of the Sect Master.

When they made their entrance just now, there was no noise, and they did not arrive by Sword Control.

No one knows how they arrived? As if they simply appeared out of thin air.

Even the Sect Master had to proactively salute them, and the aura they emanated was extremely terrifying, as if divine might overshadowed everything.

Their attire, Purple Gold Robes, was enough to indicate their status. They were undoubtedly the Supreme Elders.

Some elders and protectors of the sect who had cultivated for over a thousand years were astonished to find that among these three, one of them was the previous Sect Master. Everyone thought he was long dead or had left Dan State.

Yet, they had been cultivating all this time within the sect’s forbidden grounds.

It’s certain that these three individuals are likely to be Sword Gods. Above their heads, not only is there a Sword Domain manifesting, but there is also the activity of a Sword Soul within the Sword Domain.

Furthermore, they are floating half a foot off the ground without relying on any Treasure Sword Divine Weapon.

"This urgent summons for the four Supreme Elders is truly a last resort. Our Ten Thousand Sword Sect has produced a once-in-a-millennium genius who has inherited the Heaven and Earth Sword Skill, but he is now besieged by the Beixie Emperor with a large army and is in danger of falling at any moment."

Upon hearing the words of the Master of Ten Thousand Sword Sect, all four Supreme Elders were visibly shaken.

However, Elder Ge Qing seemed to have prior knowledge of this matter and thus was the most composed among the four.

"Pu Li, you have great talent and strategy. Under your leadership, the Ten Thousand Sword Sect is gradually reversing its decline. Tell us what to do, and we will follow your command," said the leftmost Supreme Elder with an indifferent tone.

"Please, Elder Ge, stay behind to guard our sect against petty intruders. Also, be prepared in case the Ancient Demon hiding in the Evil Spirit Valley emerges to harm others!"

The Master of Ten Thousand Sword Sect said to Instructor Elder Ge Qing.

"No problem!"

Ge Qing smiled with confidence, as his Divine Weapon in hand suddenly emitted a colorful sword light from its tip.

It looked splendid and extraordinary, truly mystical.

It is said that once one’s cultivation breaks through to the Sword God Realm, the sword light revealed is called Divine Light. It has a colorful hue and is more than ten times more powerful than ordinary sword light.

The most fundamental requirement to be promoted to a Sect’s Supreme Elder should be to have reached the Sword God Cultivation.

"I request you three Supreme Elders to accompany our sect to the border of the Beixie Empire!" said Pu Li, bowing to the other three Supreme Elders.

"Agreed!"

The three replied succinctly.

"All Ten Thousand Sword Sect disciples above the rank of Great Sword Master, follow our sect to the Beixie Empire’s border to rescue Chu Feng. Let’s see who gave the Beixie Empire the nerve to touch a member of our Ten Thousand Sword Sect!"

The Master of Ten Thousand Sword Sect was brimming with killing aura, exuding an unbeatable domineering presence.

There was no time to waste. Many experts from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, led by Pu Li and the three Supreme Elders, promptly set out with great momentum at the fastest possible speed towards Lonely Thunder Peak, where Chu Feng was trapped.

The Beixie Emperor thought that Chu Feng had defected from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and, without support, could be bullied and besieged as they pleased.

Very soon, he would learn what it means to touch a tiger’s butt and what is called the Dragon’s Reverse Scale.

Once the Master of Ten Thousand Sword Sect and his followers arrive, it will surely put the Beixie Emperor in an untenable position.

...

At the headquarters of Treasure Pill Pavilion in the central part of Dan State, Chu Feng’s senior disciple, Chen Dazhong, has been covertly monitoring updates about his mentor’s situation. He also commanded the Sixth Manager of the branch in the Dan State North Territory to secretly protect Chu Feng at all times.

When he learned that Chu Feng was trapped on Lonely Thunder Peak within the Beixie Empire, and in imminent danger.

His anger was immediate.

Without any further concern for potentially exposing himself, he directly mobilized all the resources of Treasure Pill Pavilion, convening ten Sword Gods and a hundred Sword Saints at breakneck speed, headed for Lonely Thunder Peak in the Northern Territory of Dan State within the Beixie Empire.

This time, Chen Dazhong wanted to seize the chance to meet his mentor, who had been reborn.

And to confirm once again.

Such a formidable force is terrifying, not just in the Northern Territory of Dan State, but even across the entire Dan State itself.

This was also the strongest force that Chen Dazhong could muster.

Someone dared to take the life of his mentor – how could this be allowed? Even turning the Beixie Emperor to dust wouldn’t quell the towering flames of his rage.
