A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 123 - 108: Sect Leader’s Divine Might (Part 2)

In the next instant, the fish flicked its tail, dazzling with light, stinging the eyes! This fish suddenly transformed into a hundred phantoms, all solidified amidst the sharp screeching sound.

In mid-air, over a hundred golden strange fish surged upward, covering the sky above the training field, forming a golden river!

The sharpness rushed down from the Celestial Spirit, and the surrounding junior cultivators exclaimed, stumbling back several feet.

Facing the golden fish tide, the four from Qingli Mountain and Liuhua Valley felt a piercing pain, as if stabbed by blades, their faces changed drastically, their legs trembled, and the magical artifacts they controlled shook.

This... what kind of array transformation is this! How can there be such a spectacle!

But by now, there was no retreat, the two gritted their teeth, desperately mobilized their divine sense, and finally cast a few high-tier Qi Cultivation talismans, transforming into vine nets and mud whirlpools, adding another layer to their defense.

This layer upon layer of defense, light shields wrapped the four into a hemisphere.

Taotao’s mouth opened wide, blurting out: "What a big turtle shell."

Fourth breath.

With Lu Qian’s current divine sense, he could have performed two types of triple transformations. But at this time, he chose to inject over seventy percent of his divine sense into this one transformation.

This made this transformation far surpass the ordinary, its momentum was shocking.

The fish tide took shape completely, Lu Qian’s eyes were like lightning, silently murmuring: "Go!"

The golden fish tide rolled and surged, over a hundred flat strange fish charged at the four!

Like a river pouring down, flowing straight down, in an instant, the sharp whistling sound in the field was deafening.

Although there were a few exchanges, this was the first time Guh Niqiang saw Lu Qian perform this transformation, she couldn’t help but ask: "What is this?"

"Duo Chao Geng Gold Divine Sword!" Master Xuan Ji gazed at the fish tide with fascination, "Although in the shape of fish, in fact, each fish is a small Geng Metal Divine Sword!"

Xin Metal Divine Lock, extremely tenacious, Geng Metal Divine Sword, unbeatable sharpness. Transformed into fish shape, it was even more agile, swimming freely.

Amidst the sharp whistling, Duo Chao Geng Gold Divine Sword heavily slammed into the defensive hemisphere!

Fifth breath.

Defensive talismans turned to ash instantly, earth walls crumbled, water shields vanished, jade rings faintly whispered, breaking into a dozen pieces.

Clear light scattered, mist emptied, the illusion mirror shattered in an instant, crystal shards floated across the training field.

Fish tide pounced, over a hundred Geng Metal Divine Swords pierced in, and the four-layer defensive light shield shattered like bubbles!

Under the Duo Chao Geng Gold Divine Sword, this layer of defense was akin to an illusion in water, dispersing with one strike.

The onlooking cultivators were all wide-eyed and open-mouthed, this golden Duo Chao fish tide, and the commanding figure standing tall, was deeply etched in their minds.

A hundred strange Duo Chao tore through all defenses in one breath, straight at the four.

Before the sword arrived, the extreme sharpness of Geng Metal Qi approached, and dense fine scratches appeared instantly on the four’s clothing.

The Duo Chao charged forward, the shadow of death grasped their hearts, Xuu and Chen shouted hoarsely: "Spare us! Spare us!"

In five breaths, the victory was decided!

Lu Qian tried his best to align his divine sense towards the "Mirror" mantra. At the instant the Duo Chao charged at the four, his divine sense moved slightly, and this golden Duo Chao suddenly split, a hundred flounder-shaped divine swords nimbly brushed past the four.

But with just this brush, countless tiny bloodstains appeared on the four’s skin, blood seeping out instantly, looking dire and terrifying.

Lu Qian again mobilized his divine sense, turned the array base, and the Duo Chao Geng Gold Divine Sword rose into the air. Just then, the spirit crystal’s spiritual qi ran out on the array map, shattered into stone powder.

Aside from the six spirit crystals he’d given Jiang Qingfeng, one used in a spar with Guh Niqiang, one in the Bichao Mountain battle, now another consumed, leaving three on himself. This meant, of the twenty spirit crystals in the ring’s secret collection, only nine were left now.

The Duo Chao disappeared, the array realm dissipated, five command banners and the array map were retrieved by Lu Qian.

The four staggered, almost sitting down, the feeling of brushing past death made their minds lose control, their bodies went soft.

"Good!" Baitao clapped heavily outside the field, acclaimed first. Lin Le stared blankly, the light of admiration and envy in his eyes almost overflowed.

In the next moment, cheers thundered, applause surged, dozens of cultivators blushed, cheering loudly, faces full of pride.

This is our Yunshan Sect’s Sect Leader indeed!

The all-surging Duo Chao Geng Gold Divine Sword had now deeply etched into their minds, becoming an indelible mark. On the spot, they decided to share and spread the Sect Leader’s might and elegance with other fellow disciples when they return.

Many cultivators even eyed brightly, determined to ask the Transmission Elder once the sect system is set, about learning this move from the Sect Leader.

Seeing Lu Qian collected the command banner, looking over, the four hurriedly knelt down. Just hearing Lu Qian calmly said: "Well, two Sect Leaders, does my cultivation qualify me as the Sect Leader of two sects?"

Xuu Yingcai replied loudly: "Sect Leader’s might, we are all convinced, from now on, just command us, no second thoughts!"

"Previously we were blind to the mountain, please forgive us," Chen Wei added, "From now on, our two sects’ cultivators are at Sect Leader’s disposal, even if it’s a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, fighting to the last, we’ll never back down!"

Xuu Yingcai secretly cursed "bootlicker", then also spoke a few sweet words. The two looked at each other, competitive sparks erupting.

Lu Qian casually listened to these pledges, but the surface gestures were still necessary, he stepped forward a few steps, showing a gentle smile, helped the two Sect Leaders up: "With your help, it’s truly Yunshan Sect’s blessing. From now on we’re family, no need for such formality.

Now, with blood still fresh on their bodies, their clothes tattered, looking pitiful, Lu Qian immediately instructed disciples to summon servants, take them down to change into clean clothes, heal up, then come to the great hall for discussion.

Luckily these scars, although scary looking, were actually superficial scratches, with elixir, they could heal within thirty minutes. The few left gratefully.

Lu Qian nodded towards the disciples outside the field, they erupted in even warmer cheers. Lu Qian instructed Jiang Qingfeng to take them back to the quarters, so these twenty junior cultivators walked away, debating intensely, but reluctant.

Lu Qian briefly conversed with the eager Guh Niqiang, promising to spar again soon, Mad Fairy was quite satisfied and returned to the hall first.

Eyes met with the contemplative Master Xuan Ji, old and young smiled at each other.

Master Xuan Ji was greatly relieved, patted Lu Qian’s shoulder: "Lu the Kid, nicely done. Though I also have Consciousness Collection, my overall divine sense is only twice that of a regular late-stage Qi Cultivation, not reaching early-stage Foundation Establishment. Your Consciousness Collection is much stronger than mine, now nearing mid-stage Foundation Establishment threshold. My Five Elements Grand Array wasn’t taught to the wrong person."

Lu Qian said sincerely: "Without Elder Zhou, how could I have today’s achievements? In my heart, you’re my teacher. Though my divine sense has grown slightly, I still require Elder Zhou’s guidance. This Yin Yang, Qimen Five Elements Formation, I only have a general idea of the mantra and learned some insights, there are many areas needing study."

Master Xuan Ji stroked his goatee, nodded with a smile.

Half an hour later, Qingli Mountain and Liuhua Valley’s vassal ceremony was officially held in the Bichao Mountain’s main hall.

Lu Qian inquired about the two sects’ conditions, learning Qingli Mountain has sixteen cultivators, thirteen mid-stage Qi Cultivation, three late-stage Qi Cultivation, while Liuhua Valley has fifteen cultivators, eleven mid-stage Qi Cultivation, four late-stage Qi Cultivation.

The two sects’ early-stage Qi Cultivation practitioners were all killed a few months back, led by Lu Qian with three sects, when guarding the mountain gate.
