Chapter 74 – I Won’t Change My Sect
The disciples of the Purple Cloud Sword Sect stared in disbelief. Their Adam’s apples trembled as they stuttered, “Level... nine... artifact soul!
“If someone like that survives, he’ll become a legend across the entire Daxia Territory within a hundred years!”
The disciples of the Myriad Immortal Sword Sect were just as shaken, rendered speechless for a long time.
They had no idea why the nine stone pillars had turned from white to red, but they knew it signified something extraordinary. Once so proud of their own talents, they now felt like wilted vegetables, unworthy even in the eyes of a stray dog.
They had overheard the earlier conversation between Li Guanqi and the Seven Strings Sect. He possessed a spirit root of the thunder lineage, which was the most destructive of all elements, and a Saint Spirit Root. A Saint Spirit Root.
An Azure Dragon Island Sect disciple muttered, “How... how long has he been cultivating...”
Ye Feng glanced at him and quipped mockingly, “It was still too slow! He only reached the Foundation Building Realm after five months! Cough cough... It was the same for me.”
The other person rolled his eyes hard.
Li Nanting breathed heavily as he stared at Li Guanqi intensely, as if the Daxia Sword Sect’s future rested in Li Guanqi’s hands.
The commotion had already drawn the attention of the highest echelons of the Purple Sun Pavilion. A dozen elders soared into view, led by an elderly man—Gu Xiong, the deputy pavilion master of the Purple Sun Pavilion.
Vital force surged through Gu Xiong’s body, his presence exuding an air of quiet authority. He wore long purple robes embroidered with gold, and his face was sharp and hawkish, with protruding cheekbones, a curved nose, drooping triangular eyes, and thin lips.
Although his hair was entirely white, his back was as straight as a sword, and his gaze was razor-sharp.
