C133 The Contest Begins
The Sect Master of the Three Major Sects personally brought the six participating disciples to the Snow Sword Sect.
As the chief disciple, Wang Hao followed behind Lee Yunlong.
"Li Sect Master, it's been a year since we last met, and your cultivation has improved again. This is something worth celebrating!"
The one who spoke was the Sect Master of Myriad Beast Sect, and his name was Lee Chengwei. Beside him stood an old man with a head full of white hair. He was the Sect Master of Hate Leaving Sect, Zhou Xiaojie.
"Li Sect Master's talent is excellent, and he is able to reach a higher level at such a young age. He is truly a role model for us!"
The person who spoke was called Liu Xin. He was a middle-aged man about the same age as Lee Chengwei. He was the most conspicuous among the four Sect Masters because he was very short, perhaps even less than 1.6 meters.
Lee Yunlong laughed loudly and said, "The three Sect Masters are too polite! You are too polite! Your arrival has really brought honor to the Snow Sword Sect!"
While the four of them were conversing, a middle-aged man with a grim expression stepped into the mountain gate.
Behind the middle-aged man was the second young master of the Ling family, Ling Wenyu. He was the patriarch of the Ling family, the biggest family in Ice Snow Domain - Ling Xie!
Ling Xie's appearance immediately silenced the four Sect Masters. Lee Yunlong had a serious expression on his face. One should know that Ling Xie was the second most powerful person in Ice Snow Domain!
The first person was naturally the domain lord. However, the domain lord was obsessed with cultivation and hadn't shown his face for a hundred years. It could be said that Ling Xie was the most powerful and powerful person in Ice Snow Domain!
Ling Xie walked to the front of the four Sect Masters and said, "Li Sect Master, this time I came out to relieve my boredom. I have really caused you trouble."
Ling Xie's tone did not contain any power or influence, but there was still cold sweat on Lee Yunlong's back.
He was shocked in his heart, "What kind of cultivation is this Ling Xie? He could make me feel fear with just a few words!"
"Patriarch Ling, what are you talking about? It is the glory of the Snow Sword Sect for you to come here!"
Ling Xie nodded and looked around. He asked, "Are all the outstanding disciples of the four major sects here?"
Lee Yunlong nodded and exchanged a glance with the other three Sect Master.
The three Sect Masters immediately understood what Lee Yunlong meant. They called the disciples who were participating in the competition.
Out of the four great sects, a total of twenty-four disciples had been gathered.
Wang Hao led the Snow Sword Sect's team and sized up the opponents he was about to face. The disciples sent by the other three sects were all above the Profound Martial Stage Level Five. Wang Hao even found a disciple who was at the eighth level of the Profound Martial Stage!
Lau Xuan said softly, "The man who was at the eighth level of the Profound Martial Stage is called Lee Yunda. He is the chief disciple of the Hate Leaving Sect. The Hate Leaving Sect has been competing for the first place for two years because of his powerful strength! Last year, I fought with him, but in the end, it was only eleven moves. I lost. "
Wang Hao was stunned for a moment. Lau Xuan's strength was on par with Ding Chunqiu's. It was hard for him to imagine that Lau Xuan could only take eleven moves from Lee Yunda.
Lau Xuan continued to introduce, "Look in the direction of the Myriad Beast Sect. The big guy in the lead is called Meng Ma. He is at the seventh level of the Profound Martial Stage. His Blood Soul is a Mammoth Elephant. His strength is extraordinary!"
"Mammoth Elephant?" Wang Hao had seen the original form of this Blood Soul in the Myriad Beast Abyss. It was extremely powerful and powerful. Wang Hao took advantage of its injury to cut it down!
"Profound Cloud Sect doesn't have any outstanding disciples, but their disciples are very good at formations. This competition isn't a one on one battle, but good news for them!"
After Lau Xuan's introduction, Wang Hao had learned the characteristics of the Three Major Sects. He now had a better understanding of the disciples of the Myriad Beast Sect. It was very tough to fight alone, but the Profound Cloud Sect was good at fighting together. As for the Hate Leaving Sect, it was Lee Yunda who stood out from the rest. He had the ability to sweep away all opponents!
As soon as the disciples of the four major sects appeared, the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder. However, Wang Hao could clearly feel that the Snow Sword Sect was bearing the most hatred.
Wang Hao furrowed his brows and asked, "Does the Snow Sword Sect have any grudges with the other three major sects?"
Lau Xuan was also a little curious, "The disciples of the Snow Sword Sect rarely have enmity with others. I also don't understand why the disciples of the other three sects would look at us like that."
Wang Hao's expression became serious. Things seemed to have become a little troublesome. He could even feel a trace of killing intent from the disciples of the other sects!
That's right, it was killing intent! This group of people wanted to kill him! They wanted to kill all the disciples of Snow Sword Sect!
"Everyone, be careful when you enter the Hidden Sword Valley. Don't split up. This time, we might be facing the joint attack of three sects!"
Wang Hao's words startled everyone. Qin Hui said with some concern, "If it's really as you imagine, I'm afraid we won't have any chance of winning if we fight against 18 opponents!"
The strength of the core disciples of the four major sects was on the same level. Fighting three of them alone, who else could do it besides Lee Yunda?
Wang Hao said in a deep voice, "Just like what we thought, this competition was planned by the Ling family. It might be a secret hidden in the Hidden Sword Valley. The other Three Major Sects... They might be bribed by the Ling family to enter the valley to search for them in the name of the competition. We can't let them get what they want!"
Ding Chunqiu asked calmly, "Do you have an idea?"
Wang Hao sneered and said, "The other Three Major Sects joining forces is indeed disadvantageous to us. It's not like we don't have the advantage alone!"
"Our advantage?" Jia Houwei asked hastily, "Boss, don't keep us guessing. Tell us quickly!"
Wang Hao explained, "Hidden Sword Valley is very deep, and the sunlight can't reach it. It is very dark inside. Even during the day, we can only see one or two meters in front of us."
"The terrain in the valley is complicated. It's very easy to lose your direction if you only use your eyes to observe. Therefore, the martial artists who enter the valley will definitely use Yuan energy to scout the way."
"And the Heavenly Orchid Grass summoned by Cham can block the detection of essence energy. In other words, as long as we enter the valley, unless we are willing to expose ourselves, no one will be able to discover us!"
Hearing Wang Hao's words, the eyes of the five people lit up. With Ding incense's ability to protect them, it would be very difficult for the disciples of other sects to discover them.
As long as the six people from the Snow Sword Sect were careful and launched sneak attacks everywhere, not to mention that there were eighteen of them, even if there were eighty of them, it would not be enough for them to fight!
Jia Houwei flattered him at the right time, "Boss, you're really smart!"
Wang Hao smiled without saying a word. He still had one thing that he did not tell everyone. He had the Dark Heart as his trump card. As long as he opened the Dark Shadow Form, a dark place like the Hidden Sword Valley would become Wang Hao's hunting ground!
Ling Wenyu came to the front of the sixteen disciples. He summoned a human-shaped puppet from the Essence Ring. The puppet was made with excellent quality, and it was emitting a strong Essence Energy Undulation.
Ling Wenyu said, "This puppet in front of you is at the Profound Martial Stage Level Five. Its strength was similar to everyone else's, but its combat strength was astonishing. It can easily deal with three ordinary Profound Martial Stage Level Five warriors! "
"The content of this competition is very simple. We will throw a hundred identical puppets into the Hidden Sword Valley, and the only standard for your victory is to find a puppet with a Nightlight Stone hidden in its chest mechanism!"
Ling Wenyu stretched out his palm and lightly patted the chest of the puppet next to him. With a cracking sound, the chest of the puppet automatically split open, and a dazzling gem fell out.
"Of course, after the puppet is activated, the mechanism will only be activated after the puppet is destroyed. So, if you want to check if there is a gem hidden in the puppet, you have to destroy it!"
"One more thing. There is a restriction placed on this Moonlight Stone, and it can't be stored in the Essence Ring. Please remember this, everyone."
"The first one to obtain the gem will be the one to rush out of the Hidden Sword Valley and obtain the final victory!"
After Ling Wenyu finished explaining the rules, Wang Hao immediately fell into deep thought.
"This Moonlight Stone cannot be kept into the Essence Ring. Once it is discovered by others, the light it emits will immediately attract the attention of the disciples of the other sects. The first person to discover the puppet will definitely be attacked by all the opponents!"
"Therefore, after entering the Hidden Sword Valley, the six of us must not act rashly!"
...
All the preparations before the competition had been completed. Lee Yunlong brought everyone to the center of the sect - Sword Cleansing Pavilion.
All the disciples in Sword Cleansing Pavilion had left. Lee Yunlong squatted down and pressed his hand on the first step of Sword Cleansing Pavilion.
The moment Lee Yunlong's palm touched the step, a ray of light shot out from his palm. Then, layers of Talisman appeared on the step.
After the Talisman was activated, the ground suddenly shook violently. The entire Sword Cleansing Pavilion suddenly began to slowly move toward the east.
Jia Houwei's mouth was wide open. He had been in the sect for so many years, but this was the first time he had seen such a wondrous scene.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, the Sword Cleansing Pavilion had moved an entire fifty meters east. In the place where it originally stood, a thirty meter wide pit appeared.
Even though it was noon now, the sunlight could penetrate through the pit, but it was still impossible to see the scene at the bottom of the valley.
Ling Wenyu was the first to arrive at the hole. He waved his hand and took out a hundred puppets that looked exactly the same from the Essence Ring.
With a thought, all the puppets were activated at the same time. One by one, they jumped into the pit. However, they were like stones thrown into the ocean, and didn't even make a sound when they landed on the ground.
"The Sect Master of the four great sects will bring their disciples down to the bottom of the valley!"
Zhou Xiaojie of Hate Leaving Sect was the first to lead his disciples into the valley. After that, Lee Chengwei and Liu Xin also jumped into the valley with their own disciples.
Lee Yunlong came to Wang Hao's side and casually clapped his hands. The six of them immediately felt a force pulling them into the valley.
The process of falling was extremely long, and they could only hear the whistling of the wind in their ears. Wang Hao thought to himself, Profound Martial Stage warriors don't know how to fly. They want to take the gem and rush out of the valley. I'm afraid we can only kill all our opponents!"
Fifteen breaths later, everyone landed on the ground. Lee Yunlong took out six jade pendants from his Essence Ring and distributed them.
"When you are in a life-threatening situation, as long as you use your Yuan energy to activate the Talisman in the jade pendant, Elder Hee and Elder Chen will immediately come to rescue you. However, once you ask for help, the person who activated the jade pendant will be eliminated."
Wang Hao said, "Sect Master, I have a bad feeling about this. Perhaps the Ling family and Three Major Sects aren't only aiming for the secrets of the Hidden Sword Valley. You and the elders must be careful!"
Lee Yunlong nodded his head heavily, "I have already asked Elder Hee to activate the Sect Protecting Array. With just the Sect Master and Ling Xie, we won't be able to stir up any trouble. You all just need to feel at ease!"
Hearing the Sect Master's explanation, Wang Hao, who should have been at ease, became even more worried.
