Caw! Caw! Caw!
Under the vast clear sky, celestial cranes parted the clouds, continuously circling.
Such a magnificent sight, almost exactly as described in legends of Immortal Clans.
But in the vast Eastern Wasteland, only a few places can witness it.
The White Crane Domain is one of them.
Within this domain, there is a Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect known as the White Crane Sect. The inheritance skill is "Cry of the Cranes to the Ninth Heaven," comprehensive from Qi Refinent to the Nascent Soul Realm.
After Foundation Establishnt, beginner disciples are rewarded with a celestial crane.
Both cultivate together, and their combat strength is formidable.
Upon reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, they can even rely on their companion celestial crane to soar across the Nine Heavens and traverse the Azure Darkness!
Of course, under normal circumstances, there wouldn’t be so many celestial cranes flying above the White Crane Domain.
Now, as the Five Domains are united to resist the demon tribe, to prevent a sudden attack by the demon army, so many cranes are released to patrol the skies.
Suddenly!
The flock of celestial cranes in the sky halted abruptly, their sharp eyes fixated on a palace deep within a mountain.
There, a mighty and sharp aura spread without concealnt.
A number of cultivators were gathering towards that location.
In the distance, within a Fourth Order cave mansion, an elderly man with white hair and a youthful spirit slowly opened his eyes.
"It’s the teleportation formation from the East Sun Sect. Who might be arriving at this ti?"
With thoughtful contemplation, he gracefully exited the cave mansion.
As soon as he stepped into the air, a white crane naturally flew beneath him, carrying him towards the teleportation palace.
In no ti at all, he arrived at the palace.
On arrival, the disciples guarding the surroundings all bowed in greeting.
"Supre Elder!"
"Supre Elder!"
"Master!"
The elder nodded towards the middle-aged man who was the last to salute, then watched the figure gradually revealing within the teleportation formation.
Inside the formation, the white-clothed man’s eyes flashed. Before the spirit qi could stabilize, he calmly spoke.
"Amidst the ancient pine, bold against the wind, while wild cranes drink idly despite hunger. You must be the friend of True Master Lu from the East Sun Sect, True Master Xian He!"
True Master Xian He’s expression tightened!
The teleportation formation had yet to completely cease, the vast spirit qi still bombarding the cultivator’s physique.
At this mont, within the formation, a cultivator is most vulnerable, needing to resist the pressure of the void and guard against external enemies.
Yet, the other could still speak so composedly under these circumstances?
With a flick of his horsetail whisk, True Master Xian He made a bow: "Indeed, it is this old Taoist. May I know your na, friend?"
The man in white raised his foot, and with one step, forcefully exited the teleportation formation.
"I am Luo Chen!"
With just one word, Luo Chen was already confronting True Master Xian He.
Anonymous, with no known background?
True Master Xian He furrowed his brow, but recalled the ntion of True Master Lu from the East Sun Sect, seeming trustworthy.
"This is not the place for conversation, please this way, friend?"
"Just right, I also have so matters where I wish for your guidance, friend."
Luo Chen smiled slightly, following True Master Xian He and his disciple out of the teleportation palace.
Upon erging, the elder flicked his horsetail whisk, summoning two celestial cranes to descend upon the square in front of the palace, prostrating themselves before them.
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, Third Order Spirit Cranes?
Especially the one beneath True Master Xian He, evidently with a Third Order Finalization aura, even surpassing the disciple’s realm.
"Please!"
"Thank you for your hospitality, friend."
Luo Chen stepped onto the crane’s back, ascending with True Master Xian He to a high pavilion.
"Zhaowu, serve tea!"
"Yes, Master!"
The middle-aged man serving at the side promptly retrieved tea tools from the stone table, brewing spirit tea.
Taking this opportunity, both parties scrutinized each other.
Information about the White Crane Gate swiftly flowed through Luo Chen’s mind.
This sect’s cultivators are skilled in battle, but not belligerent!
Their aversion to battle, apart from self-cultivation, also stems from investing resources in nurturing their companion spirit cranes, resulting in relatively few sect mbers.
Back when the Eastern Wasteland’s rear had twenty-one Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects, including the White Crane Domain among the five domains for the Death Placent Army’s settlent was based on these considerations.
Within these five domains’ Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects, the White Crane Gate had few cultivators, Fenghua Palace largely comprised female cultivators also few in number, the Mu Residence wielded Nascent Soul level Immortal Cultivation Clans’ influence, so secluded in a corner, and the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion adhered to a principle of valuing quality over quantity, resulting in few sect disciples.
It can be said that among the five domains, other than the Hundred Beasts Sect which specializes in dealing with demon beasts, the remaining four sects were chosen due to their small population, occupying small territories, providing a refuge for survivors escaping from the front line.
Of course, geographical factors also played a significant role.
As far as Luo Chen knew, the White Crane Gate now had only two Nascent Soul True Masters!
One of them is even rumored to be a transford Great Demon, not an orthodox human cultivator.
As the fragrance of the tea perated, Luo Chen suppressed his urgency, inquiring about the matters he was concerned with.
"Do you know of the Luo Tian Sect, friend?"
True Master Xian He, assuming it was sothing serious, relaxed at hearing the inquiry was rely about a sect.
Though, Luo Tian Sect?
He showed a puzzled expression.
It was actually the disciple Zhaowu who hesitated, then unexpectedly spoke: "The Luo Tian Sect you ntioned—is it that recently established at Lingtian Pass, involved in the Ten Duels of Battle?"
Ten Duels of Battle?
Luo Chen’s brow furrowed intensely, like two small swords, causing a chilling sensation.
Without hesitation, he flicked his hand, a jade vial appeared on the table.
"This dication aids in spirit beast cultivation. Young friend, might you thoroughly tell about those so-called Ten Duels of Battle!"
