Chapter 33 Returning Heaven Sect
Chapter 33 Returning Heaven Sect
Xu Xiaoxiao burst into laughter through her tears, took Li Changchun's hand, and said, "Master, what realm are you in now? This new realm must be incredibly powerful!"
Li Changchun smiled and patted her head: "I am now in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and my control over spiritual power is even more exquisite. However, although the Demon Pearl has been sealed, there must be a hidden story behind its appearance. We still need to investigate it in detail."
Xu Xiaoxiao frowned, her face full of worry: "Master, could there be other black-robed figures plotting in the shadows?"
Li Changchun's gaze was solemn: "It is highly likely. We should return to the sect first and discuss countermeasures with the sect leader and elders. You should carefully organize your experiences and not miss any details."
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded solemnly: "Yes, Master, I will definitely do my best to assist you and will not allow those black-robed demons to have any more opportunities!"
After bidding farewell to the elders of Lingxu City, Xu Xiaoxiao headed out of the city.
"Master, is our sect far from here?" She was a little excited but also a little worried, wondering if her fellow disciples would be easy to get along with and if the other members of the sect would welcome her.
"This time, your master will take you back by flying on a sword. It won't take more than a few hours to get there." Li Changchun summoned his natal sword, the Qiankun Sword, which transformed into a sword as tall as a person in front of him.
"Wow, Master, your sword is so cool!" Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the yellowish-green sword with its runes and Bagua diagrams; it was very beautiful.
"This is my natal sword. When you reach the Core Formation stage, you can also forge your own natal magic weapon. You don't necessarily have to forge a sword; you can forge other magic weapons."
Li Changchun pulled Xu Xiaoxiao onto the Qiankun Sword, and the sword itself automatically generated a protective barrier that could block wind and rain, as well as external attacks.
This is even more convenient than an airplane. She will work hard to cultivate so that she can travel around and see what this world is like.
Xu Xiaoxiao stood on the Qiankun Sword, her heart surging with emotion.
Her cheeks flushed slightly with excitement, her eyes sparkled with curiosity and excitement, and she gripped Li Changchun's clothes tightly with both hands. She then cautiously peeked out, looking down at the mountains and rivers rushing past below.
The whistling wind rang in her ears, but it could not conceal the joy in her heart.
She was amazed by this wondrous way of flying that she had never experienced before, and filled with both anticipation and trepidation about her upcoming arrival at the Huitian Sect.
The Returning Heaven Sect is a renowned and righteous sect in the cultivation world. It is located deep within the Lingxiao Mountains, shrouded in clouds and mist. The spiritual energy in the mountains gathers into spiritual veins, nourishing every plant and tree within the sect.
The Huitian Sect's architecture is magnificent and spectacular. On the main peak, there are seven off-peaks, with buildings such as the main hall, scripture pavilion, alchemy room, and disciples' cultivation room distributed in a well-organized manner.
The sect is filled with experts, and the sect leader, True Person Xuanfeng, is a renowned Grand Master of the Integration Stage. He is highly respected and a capable leader who has led the Huitian Sect to maintain the righteous order in the cultivation world, slaying demons and monsters, and is deeply admired.
Many of the elders were at least at the Nascent Soul stage, each specializing in different techniques and skills, such as swordsmanship, alchemy, or formations.
The disciples of the Huitian Sect are divided into inner and outer sects.
There are many outer disciples who are responsible for the sect's daily affairs and the collection of basic cultivation resources.
Inner disciples are the elite of the elite. They receive meticulous guidance from the elders, cultivate more advanced techniques, and use better resources.
At the Huitian Sect, the disciples follow strict sect rules, dedicate themselves to cultivation, pursue the path of immortality, and are determined to protect all living beings and pass on the righteous path of cultivation.
During her flight on her sword, Xu Xiaoxiao's mind was filled with daydreams about life at the Huitian Sect.
She thought to herself, "There must be many interesting places in the Returning Heaven Sect. Are all the senior brothers and sisters particularly powerful? I can't let my master down."
Several hours later, the outline of the Huitian Sect gradually came into view.
Looking into the distance, Xu Xiaoxiao could see pavilions and towers appearing and disappearing in the clouds and mist, and she couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Master, the Returning Heaven Sect is so beautiful!"
Li Changchun looked at her, a smile in his eyes: "Once you join the sect, you'll discover even more beautiful scenery. However, Xiaoxiao, the sect rules are strict, so you mustn't act recklessly. But within our own Chongyang Peak, you can do whatever you want."
Because Chongyang Peak is the ninth peak, Li Changchun, as the peak master, named it Chongyang.
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Master, I will definitely follow the rules."
After landing in the sect square, some disciples gathered around.
An older disciple stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "Elder Li, you're back. And who is this?"
Li Changchun said, "This is my newly accepted apprentice, Xu Xiaoxiao. I hope you will all take good care of her in the future."
Xu Xiaoxiao bowed shyly to everyone and said, "Greetings, fellow senior brothers."
She felt a little nervous, wondering if these senior brothers would accept her.
At this moment, a young and impetuous disciple snorted, "What skills could a newly initiated girl possibly have? She's only at the third level of Qi Refining, yet Elder Li has already accepted her as an inner disciple..."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiaoxiao felt a pang of anxiety and thought to herself, "I must work hard in my cultivation so that everyone will look at me with new respect."
Li Changchun frowned, about to speak, when a female disciple said softly, "Don't say that. To be favored by Elder Li, one must have something extraordinary about them."
Xu Xiaoxiao looked at her gratefully, thinking, "This senior sister is so kind; there are still good people in the sect."
The female disciple's words warmed Xu Xiaoxiao's heart. Just as she was about to thank her, the female disciple gracefully moved in front of her, seemingly affectionately taking her hand, with a gentle smile on her face, but her eyes subtly revealed a hint of scrutiny.
"Junior Sister Xiaoxiao, you're new here. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me. I've been in this sect for a while now, so I can help you out in some way."
Xu Xiaoxiao nodded hurriedly: "Thank you, senior sister. You're so kind."
My heart was filled with gratitude and affection for this senior sister, and I secretly rejoiced that I had met such a warm-hearted person so soon after entering the sect.
Seeing this, Li Changchun nodded slightly and said to the female disciple, "Thank you for your trouble, Qingwan."
He then led Xu Xiaoxiao toward the inner hall, preparing to report back to the sect leader.
On the way, Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but say to Li Changchun, "Master, Senior Sister Qingwan is a really nice person."
Li Changchun simply hummed in response, but in his heart he was thinking that although Qingwan usually appeared gentle and kind, he always felt that she was deep in thought, and he hoped that she would not be a threat to Xiaoxiao.
After arranging temporary accommodations for Xu Xiaoxiao, Li Changchun went to see the sect leader, and Xu Xiaoxiao wandered around the sect to familiarize herself with the surroundings.
I happened to run into Senior Sister Qingwan again on a garden path.
Senior Sister Qingwan was holding a bunch of freshly picked spiritual flowers. When she saw Xu Xiaoxiao, she handed the flowers over and said, "Junior Sister Xiaoxiao, these flowers were just picked and they smell wonderful. Here, take them from me."
Xu Xiaoxiao was flattered and quickly waved her hand, "Senior sister, this is too precious, I can't accept it."
Qingwan insisted on giving it to her, gently chiding, "If Junior Sister doesn't accept it, does she think Senior Sister's things aren't good enough?"
Xu Xiaoxiao felt a pang of guilt and quickly accepted the flowers: "Senior sister, that's not what I meant, thank you."
Qingwan's smile deepened, but in her heart she was calculating: This little girl is quite naive. I'll have to make good use of her in the future. Maybe I can gain more favor from Jingzhi through her.
A few days later, a spell competition was held within the sect for junior disciples.
Qingwan found Xu Xiaoxiao and said with concern, "Junior Sister Xiaoxiao, you must be careful in this competition. Some disciples will stop at nothing to win."
Xu Xiaoxiao was grateful and thought for a moment before saying, "Senior sister, should I participate too? But Master didn't tell me."
