Elder Shen who forcibly selected five thousand people to come forward.However, Ginger Cloud is now the one who wants to fight proactively. This inevitably made Elder Shen change his opinion of him onc...Jianzong, although divided into Inner and Outer Sects, because Sect Master Jian Sheng only recognizes the Inner Sect and does not recognize the Outer Sect, the entire Jianzong's sect location is a mountain peak that goes straight into the sky and resembles a sword!

All the inner disciples and most of the elders live on this mountain.

And atop this mountain peak, there sat a middle-aged man with his eyes closed, cross-legged for years.

This man was unremarkable in appearance, and perhaps it was because he had been sitting here for so long that his body had almost sunk into the stone beneath him. He seemed to have become one with the mountain itself.

Moreover, there wasn't a hint of aura emanating from him. He looked just like an ordinary middle-aged man.

But at this very moment, Elder Tenglin of the Outer Sect stood respectfully before him, not even daring to breathe.

Naturally, this middle-aged man was the Sword Sect Sect Master - Jian Sheng!

A swordsman, living up to his name, born for the sword!

No one knows the extent of his swordsmanship, nor the strength of his power, because no one has ever been able to withstand a single strike from his blade!

Even the elders of Jianzong didn't know how long their sect master had been staying on this mountaintop, not interacting with anyone.

After a long silence, Kenjūrō finally spoke in a hoarse voice. "Are you sure... you didn't misread it"

Although the swordsman's voice held no emotion whatsoever, Teng Lin's heart skipped a beat involuntarily. A pang of pain shot through him. He hurriedly said, "Disciple can swear his life, he didn't see wrongly."

That man named Jiang Yun, the one holding that black sword, is the very same one the former sect master showed us back then!

"Ginger Cloud!"

The swordsman repeated the name in his mouth. A peaceful expression graced his face, and a slight smile slowly curled up at the corner of his lips as he said, “Yes, it is this name!”

After finishing, under the dumbfounded gaze of Teng Lin and the watchful eyes of all the inner sect elders, Jian Sheng, who had been sitting in meditation atop the mountain for an unknown amount of time, slowly stood up.

"Shan Hai Wen Dao Fen Zong!"

"In that case, I must go to heaven myself and ask!"

Kenji's voice, a hushed whisper, naturally echoed throughout the entire mountain. However, his figure had already vanished without a trace.

Even Tenglin, right beside him, couldn't sense any fluctuation in energy or see how his sect master had left.

Then, a roar suddenly erupted from within the mountain peak: "What are you all doing standing there How can you allow the Sect Master to travel alone!"

"Three Daozi, three elders, twelve sword attendants, immediately follow the sect master and go to Wendaitian!"

With a roar, streaks of multicolored sword light shot up from within the mountain.

Along with Teng Lin, a total of eighteen sword cultivators dashed towards the Questioning Dao Heaven.

……

Damn it!

Outside the Five Elements Dao Sect, the head of the Hidden Clan emerged, his face grim as he cursed: "This Five Elements child must have guessed that I wanted to use him to kill Jiang Yun, so he refused to make a move."

"Five elders from his own sect were killed or injured by Jiang Yun, and they didn't even dare to seek revenge. What a useless bunch!"

"I will definitely find a chance in the future to say some bad things about you in front of Dao Zun, so that you know the consequences of offending me!"

The Hidden Tribe's Chief frowned and said, "However, since WuXingzi refuses to take action, it would be quite troublesome to kill Jiang Yun."

Although many people could kill Ginger Cloud, the others had no grievances with him. They wouldn't attack him just because of my one or two sentences!

And since Wuxingzi could guess why I wouldn't personally make a move, I suppose others could guess too—that Daozun is preventing me from killing him.

This way, even fewer people would dare to attack him.

After much thought, the Hidden Tribe Chief's eyes suddenly lit up, and a sinister smile appeared on his gloomy face. "I have it, Jiang Yun, you are doomed!"

As soon as his words fell, the Hidden Clan Chief's figure vanished without a trace.

……

Time flies, and there are only five days left until the official start of the Wudaozong Grand Competition.

And at this time, almost all the disciples within the Question Dao Master's sect were engrossed in their busy lives!

Even the very heavens are not exempt!

Because starting today, the truly powerful figures and top-tier experts in this world will arrive at Wenda Tian one after another to attend the grand competition of the Wenda Sect.

Of course, as the most likely successor to the position of sect leader, Dao Tianyun's duty is to welcome these powerful factions and these strong individuals.

Everyone knew this was the Sect Master's intention. He wanted all the major forces and powerful individuals to recognize and remember Dao Tianyun's name.

And this also means that Dao Tianyun becoming the new sect master is almost a foregone conclusion!

Even, there were whispers that after this grand competition ended, the Sect Master might gradually begin to transfer some of the sect's affairs to Dao Tianyou.

After all, the Wen Dao Sect is one of the Nine Great Sects, and becoming the sect leader isn't something that happens overnight. It requires an extremely long period of transition and adaptation.

But no matter what, Dao Tianyun's current status is truly flourishing, and his fame has reached its peak.

He is currently seated on an altar at the very center of the main hall. Whenever a distinguished guest arrives, he will appear immediately and personally greet them.

And this altar, which is the venue for all major events within the main sect, such as the Sect Master succession ceremony.

Looking up at the vast expanse of the sky above, although Dao Tianyun's face, which was slightly younger than his actual age, remained calm and collected, his heart was filled with joy.

Even then, before his eyes, he seemed to see himself years later, on this very altar, in the very position he now occupied, as the sect master!

By then, all eight other Great Dao Sects, including Lei Ji Tian and the Dao Shen Dian, will come to celebrate my ascension!

Just then, the voice of a disciple sounded in his ear: "Senior Brother, according to the report from the disciples ahead, distinguished guests are about to arrive!"

The disciples of the welcoming sect have already filled every entrance to the Questioning Heaven. Once a big figure arrives, they will send the news back to the main sect as quickly as possible.

Upon hearing this, Dao Tianyun suddenly opened his eyes and dismissed all the clutter in his mind. "Do you know who's here" he asked.

"Temporarily unknown!"

Dao Tianyun nodded, rose to his feet, and patted the spotless white Taoist robe on his body. He smiled faintly: "No matter who it is, I should go meet them in person!"

As his words fell, Dao Tianyun had already raised his foot, unhurriedly. He started walking, slowly ascending towards the sky.

Although the air was empty, his feet felt as if they were stepping on an invisible staircase, rising step by step.

Below, countless disciples from the various branches and sub-branches of the Wenda Sect within this world could clearly see the figure of Dao Tianyun. This also inevitably aroused envy and longing in their hearts.

Especially those who were once disciples of the same level as Daotian Yun, besides envy and longing, there was naturally some jealousy.

However, not everyone was looking at Dao Tianyun. In the northwest corner of the vast complex of the Daozhu Sect, there was a group of people who merely glanced at Dao Tianyun's figure before withdrawing their gazes, their faces bearing varying degrees of disdain.

They are the one hundred people who represent the Shan Hai Fen Zong in the competition!

First release on Chinese Novel Networke wouldn't let the golden toad escape no matter what. So, he immediately stood up without hesitation and jumped into the pool!However, just as Jiang Yun's body was about to touch the water of the pool...
