Sword Rises in the Blue Lagoon, Why Are All the Sword Cultivation Families Older Than Old Six?

Xiao Chen's mind jolted upon hearing the words of this unknown Clan Leader. An Epoch, what an ancient term. He composed himself and said, "I also frequently collect these secrets, and I've paid a considerable price for it."

Ye Xuan said, "This is also your innate concern for the common people as a Human Race Sacred Body. Today, I will break the shackles of your physique. Are you willing to work with us to contribute to the common people?"

Xiao Chen solemnly cupped his hands and bowed, "Xiao Chen is willing to follow Clan Leader, and will have no regrets even in death."

"Good, sit in a cross-legged position!" Ye Xuan said. Xiao Chen sat down cross-legged. Ye Xuan waved his hand to seal off this space, took out a pill and handed it to Xiao Chen, "Take it!"

Xiao Chen swallowed the pill without hesitation. The pill dissolved in his body, forming a sharp sword that stabbed towards the second shackle in his body. Without any resistance or opposition, it was pierced by the sword. The sword's momentum did not stop, and it continued to stab towards the last shackle, still piercing it without any resistance. After piercing the two shackles in succession, the sword formed by the power of the pill dissipated within his body.

At this moment, Xiao Chen's cultivation began to skyrocket, directly breaking through to the early stage of the Saint realm. He had suppressed it for too long, and his accumulation was too solid. One unsealing directly led to a breakthrough. The Heavenly Dao sensed this and wanted to send down a lightning tribulation, but Ye Xuan glared it back.

Seeing this, Xiao Chen bowed his head and kowtowed, "Thank you, Clan Leader, for the grace of re-creation."

Ye Xuan gently lifted Xiao Chen up, allowing him to stand.

Then, he spent less than 100,000 points in the system shop, exchanging them for a 'Covering the Sky' cultivation method, the Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, and a pair of gauntlets that were Great Emperor weapons. The three items appeared before Xiao Chen.

Ye Xuan said, "Accept them. You will cultivate in the Azure Wave Palace for now."

"Yes, Clan Leader," Xiao Chen said, his eyes gleaming as he accepted the three items.

Afterwards, Ye Xuan said to Ji Wushang, who was beside him, "One year before the Eastern Region Competition, you will take ten of the most outstanding geniuses, including Xiao Chen, to see the Great Elder."

Ji Wushang said, "Yes, Clan Leader." After speaking, he led Xiao Chen away from the Nine Heavens Pavilion.

Another half a year passed. On this day, an ancient bronze flying boat slowly stopped in the sky near the Azure Wave Palace. The mountain-guarding disciple saw this and immediately stepped forward to investigate, saying in an unfriendly tone, "Who dares to trespass into my Azure Wave Palace?" As soon as he finished speaking, a group of four people flew out of the flying boat, and then the flying boat was put away.

The four people were a young man and woman, each accompanied by two old men. One of the old men smiled and said, "We are from the Star Palace and Thunder Emperor City. We have come to visit the Palace Master of the Azure Wave Palace, please inform him." As he spoke, he handed over a spatial ring.

The disciple took the spatial ring in his hand and smiled after exploring it with his divine sense. "Oh... so it is the seniors from the Star Palace and Thunder Emperor City. Seniors, please wait a moment, I will inform them immediately." After speaking, he flew into the Azure Wave Palace.

He first found Elder Xue and reported the matter, and finally Elder Xue found Ji Wushang and explained it to him. Ji Wushang guessed the intentions of these two forces at this time and said, "Take them to the main hall!"

The people waiting outside the mountain gate were brought into the main hall of the Azure Wave Palace after an incense stick of time. Elder Xue, Ji Wushang, and Luo Tianyi were sitting above the hall.

The four were brought to the main hall, and the guiding disciple introduced, "Palace Master, the Star Palace and Thunder Emperor City have arrived." Ji Wushang, who was sitting in the first seat, nodded, and then the disciple said to the people who came, "This is our Azure Wave Palace Master and two Elders."

The four bowed their fists and saluted, "Greetings, Palace Master. We are elders from the Star Palace and Thunder Emperor City, and these two juniors behind us are our disciples." Ji Wushang looked at them. Two were in the early stage of the Ancient Emperor realm and two were Great Saint realm disciples.

Ji Wushang smiled and said, "You have come from afar, enduring the hardships of the journey. Servants, give the two elders seats."

"Thank you, Palace Master, for your kindness."

After the two elders sat down, their disciples stood behind them. Ji Wushang continued, "I wonder what brings you two to visit my Azure Wave Palace today?"

The Star Palace Elder said, "We have come here without any malice. We are here to befriend the Azure Wave Palace."

Ji Wushang laughed and said, "If that's the case, then it's a happy event. I am also extremely willing to befriend you two."

The Thunder Emperor City Elder also had a plan in mind when he heard this, and then said, "Palace Master, I have always had a question, I wonder if I should ask it or not?"

Ji Wushang smiled and said, "Friends, please feel free to speak."

The Thunder Emperor City Elder said, "I wonder what is the current relationship between the Azure Wave Palace and the Heavenly Sword Gate?"

Ji Wushang thought, 'Here comes the main topic.' Then he spread his hands and said, "Isn't it obvious enough? We paid a considerable price to compete for these states before we compromised with the Heavenly Sword Gate."

The Thunder Emperor City Elder continued, "The information is not much different. What does the Palace Master think of the Heavenly Sword Gate's extermination of the Blood Shadow Sect this time?"

Ji Wushang said, "The Heavenly Sword Gate is using the banner of eliminating demons and defending the Dao to annex the sphere of influence of the Blood Shadow Sect this time. In the eyes of all righteous forces, this is contributing to the common people. There is no excuse for intervention, and they can preserve their strength. Who wouldn't want to see this scene, including us."

After hearing this, the Star Palace Elder said, "May I ask, what is the current strength of the Heavenly Sword Gate?"

Ji Wushang only uttered two words, "Very strong."

This time, the Thunder Emperor City Elder anxiously said, "What does the Palace Master mean?"

Ji Wushang looked at the two of them and slowly said, "If you only have your current strength on the surface, I estimate that you won't be able to withstand a single battle."

The expressions on the faces of the two people who heard this changed significantly, showing a decline, and they became silent. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Ji Wushang softly said, "Don't you also have forces behind you? Why are you like this?"

The Star Palace Elder sighed deeply and said faintly, "Alas... I am not afraid of the Palace Master laughing, we also sent a message to the Central Region a few days ago, but the response we received was to stabilize the situation first, and people will be sent over after the situation there improves, but we know that the forces behind us are slightly weaker than the Sword Sect behind the Heavenly Sword Gate in the Central Region. If the Heavenly Sword Gate wants to attack us, the forces behind us will be restrained by the Sword Sect."

Ji Wushang said, "Then what do you mean?"

The Thunder Emperor City Elder said, "The three of us can form an alliance. Your Azure Wave Palace can now contend against the Heavenly Sword Gate, and the forces behind our two can restrain the Sword Sect in the Central Region. If the three of us form an alliance, we can jointly resist other forces and gain a foothold in this great world."

Ji Wushang also wanted to laugh in his heart when he heard this. They didn't even know that the Heavenly Sword Gate and they were in the same group, but this was also good, it could gain more trust.

After thinking for a while, Ji Wushang said, "An alliance is not impossible, but I have a condition, that is, the Azure Wave Palace must be the leader, because our strength is slightly stronger, I wonder what you two think."

After hearing this, the two began to send messages to their respective masters and discussed it. After a quarter of an hour, the two said in unison, "Okay, we have agreed to your conditions. This alliance will be led by the Azure Wave Palace."
