Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 260 Zhou is determined to conquer the world.

"Brother Zhou, please wait."

Shao Mingxi said, "Brother, this journey is of great importance. We dare not ask you to stay, but please take them with you."

Zhou Qing looked at Xiao Xiao and Lin Li beside Shao Mingxi and asked in surprise, "Master Shao should know how dangerous my journey is. Why make Brother Xiao and Junior Sister Lin risk their lives with me?"

Shao Mingxi said, "Spending these past few days with Brother Zhou has truly broadened my horizons."

"I am even more convinced of one thing: the height a sect can reach depends on the insight and realm of its founders throughout the ages."

"Compared to Foundation Establishment families, our Golden Core sect has a much higher level of knowledge and understanding. Our disciples are influenced by this knowledge and understanding from the very beginning, so they have a profound foundation and high potential."

“In the past, I did not think that Cloud Mist Valley was lacking in anything, but after spending these days with Brother Zhou, I have come to realize how shallow my knowledge is.”

"If we want to elevate the Cloud Mist Valley lineage to a higher level, we must have our disciples associate with those of higher standing."

"While their journey with Brother Zhou was fraught with danger, it also presented them with an unprecedented opportunity."

"As long as they can persevere, their knowledge and mental state will reach heights that we cannot reach, and their future achievements will be limitless."

"They are ready, so please do not refuse, Brother Zhou."

Zhou Qing looked at Xiao Xiao and Lin Li and saw that they were determined. They were indeed prepared to risk all dangers to reach a level that no one had ever reached before.

This is the decisiveness of a true cultivator.

Zhou Qing nodded and said, "In that case, Brother Xiao and Junior Sister Lin will travel with me."

The two men smiled and walked to Zhou Qing's side.

After bidding farewell to Shao Mingxi and the others, the three turned and walked out of Cloud Mist Valley.

The dense fog, cleaved apart by the plasma beam, slowly closed in behind the three of them.

The Cloud Mist Valley disciples who came to see them off were reluctant to leave for a long time.

For many years to come, the scene of piercing through the fog with a single sword will be passed down among the disciples of Cloud Mist Valley.

……

After leaving Cloud Mist Valley, Zhou Qing and his two companions headed towards Xuan Ying Sect, the next sect in the Northern Alliance.

The journey was relatively smooth, and no exceptional talents like Li Qiushui came to test the waters.

Zhou Qing wasn't sure if the other chosen ones had become more cautious after learning of Bai Yujing and Li Qiushui's failure, and dared not easily come to meet him.

It made no difference to Zhou Qing; he would inevitably encounter them as he continued his journey.

Although no truly top geniuses came to test their abilities, cultivators from all directions continued to arrive.

Some of these cultivators were simply curious about him and wanted to see what kind of person he was. After meeting him and exchanging a few words, they parted ways and embarked on their own journeys.

Some, however, were deeply skeptical of the rumors surrounding him and therefore wanted to expose his lies.

For people like this, anyone below the Foundation Establishment stage, he would have Xiao Xiao and Lin Li deal with them on his behalf.

Once someone has reached the Foundation Establishment stage or higher, he can kill or expel them at will, depending entirely on their attitude.

Xiao Xiao and Lin Li were increasingly grateful for the Sect Leader's decision.

They finally understood why following Zhou Qing would broaden their horizons and elevate their understanding.

In the month they followed Zhou Qing, they encountered more talented cultivators from all over the world than they had in a year of traveling on their own.

When they traveled alone, they could only occasionally encounter other cultivators, and most of these encounters were just casual meetings with them.

But Zhou Qing is different.

He was like a giant magnet, attracting genius cultivators from all over the Western Continent to him. Moreover, these genius cultivators came to find Zhou Qing not just for casual conversation; they either took action directly or engaged in in-depth exchanges.

Staying by Zhou Qing's side, they witnessed the different methods of various sects and heard many new insights into cultivation every day.

These conflicting and merging insights within them propelled their understanding to ever greater heights.

Xiao Xiao felt that his mind was already very stable and he could start building his foundation at any time.

Lin Li also became more and more composed and calm.

After more than a month, they finally arrived at the foot of Xuan Yingzong Mountain.

From afar, they could see a huge crowd gathered at the foot of Xuan Ying Mountain.

The cultivators standing in front of the Xuan Ying Sect's mountain gate were dressed in a uniform style, clearly indicating that they were disciples of the Xuan Ying Sect.

Further out along the mountainside were even more cultivators from outside the Xuan Ying Sect, numbering at least several thousand.

The sheer number of cultivators exceeds the capacity of a Golden Core sect market, indicating that they have come from elsewhere specifically to watch Zhou Qing challenge the Xuan Ying Sect.

Considering the various cultivators they encountered along the way, Zhou Qing understood that his feat must have already caused a sensation throughout the entire Western Continent.

From south to north, from east to west, across hundreds of thousands of miles of land, wherever there are cultivators, everyone is talking about his name.

When the world's attention is focused on a certain person, that person becomes the dominant force.

Zhou Qing felt a surge of power converging on him.

This overwhelming momentum allowed him to view the gazes of thousands of cultivators as a gentle breeze caressing the mountains or the bright moon shining on the river, remaining completely unmoved and calmly walking towards the Xuan Ying Sect's mountain gate.

Xiao Xiao and Lin Li, however, could not be as indifferent as Zhou Qing.

Seeing the dense crowd of cultivators ahead, and knowing that among them were Qi Refining cultivators like themselves, Foundation Establishment cultivators whom they deeply respected, and even Golden Core cultivators whom they could only look up to, they couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Fortunately, Zhou Qing was ahead of them and took on all the pressure.

Only then did they truly realize how steadfast Zhou Qing's character was.

The three of them quickly arrived at the front of the Xuan Ying Sect's mountain gate.

Zhou Qing glanced at the faces of the Xuan Ying Sect disciples, finally settling on the face of the middle-aged scholar in the very center.

He cupped his hands and asked, "Could it be Wu Shizhong, the head of the Xuan Ying Sect?"

Wu Shih-chung: "Indeed, Wu Shih-chung has met Brother Chou."

Zhou Qing said, "Master Wu must already know the purpose of my visit."

Wu Shizhong exclaimed, "Brother Zhou wants to suppress all the heroes of the world with his own strength. Which cultivator in the Western Continent doesn't know this now?"

Zhou Qing said, "In that case, please enlighten me, Master Wu."

Wu Shih-chung shook his head and said, "There's no need to compete anymore, I admit defeat."

Zhou Qing asked, "What does Master Wu mean by this?"

Wu Shizhong said, "The Three Mysterious Immortals and the Shao Immortal were defeated by Brother Zhou one after another. I know that I am not stronger than the two Immortals, so why should I humiliate myself?"

The surrounding cultivators all shook their heads and sighed in regret.

Some of them had traveled tens of thousands of miles to witness Zhou Qing's challenge against a Golden Core cultivator, but they never expected that Xuan Ying Sect would admit defeat so easily.

This greatly disappointed them.

Seeing that there was no show to watch, the cultivators were about to leave when Zhou Qing said, "If I say I will conquer the world, then I will conquer the world. If you want to admit defeat, you must first ask me if I agree."
