Luofu Mountain, a second-rate sect force in the Central Province’s Eighteen Domains, once controlled a region alongside the Azure Dragon Sect. They often clashed for territory.
The two forces, being evenly matched, held each other in check for hundreds of years without incident.
However, back then, Xiao Ye, under the alias of Martial Fool, caused chaos at Luofu Mountain, inflicting heavy losses. Later, during a bloody confrontation between Luofu Mountain and the Azure Dragon Sect, he intervened, killing several inner sect elders of Luofu Mountain, severely depleting their primordial energy.
Taking advantage of this montum, the Azure Dragon Sect launched a counterattack, aiming to completely crush Luofu Mountain, but unexpectedly encountered the Iron Blood Emperor’s son.
After erging from seclusion, the Iron Blood Emperor’s son’s power skyrocketed to terrifying levels, directly killing the Azure Dragon Sect’s hierarch, giving Luofu Mountain the opportunity to turn the tables and swiftly conquer the Azure Dragon Sect’s territory.
In a place like the Central Province’s Eighteen Domains, the rise and fall of forces are everyday occurrences, a familiar sight for martial artists. But with Xiao Ye and the Iron Blood Emperor’s son involved, the event caused a significant stir in the Central Province!
Xiao Ye dealt a severe blow to Luofu Mountain’s primordial energy!
anwhile, the Iron Blood Emperor’s son struck down the Azure Dragon Sect’s hierarch. These top young talents of the Central State seed to be engaged in a kind of unusual duel!
So even though more than a year has passed, the incident remains a popular topic of discussion.
The plaza in front of Luofu Mountain’s gate.
"Our Luofu Mountain is now the strongest sect in this region. I am pleased you have made the wise choice to join us at Luofu Mountain!"
Addressing the martial artists gathered on the plaza, an outer elder spoke aloud.
Today is the day Luofu Mountain opens its gates to recruit disciples.
For a powerful sect to endure and maintain its strength, it must continually infuse fresh blood.
Moreover, due to the damage inflicted by Xiao Ye, Luofu Mountain suffered a severe loss of primordial energy. Having taken over the Azure Dragon Sect’s territory, they require a large number of manpower.
Otherwise, other sects might seize the opportunity.
Therefore, over the past year, Luofu Mountain has been aggressively recruiting disciples.
Having beco the de facto ruler of this region, Luofu Mountain’s fa has soared, attracting many powerful martial artists every ti they recruit disciples.
However, due to Xiao Ye, the sect master and elders of Luofu Mountain remain wary, usually rejecting those who apply to join as outer elders.
"All right, now everyone form a line and co in one by one. Those with decent potential can enter Luofu Mountain to cultivate and receive powerful cultivation techniques and combat techniques."
The outer elder’s enthusiastic speech stirred the emotions of the martial artists on the plaza, concluding with a rallying note.
As his voice fell, the outer stewards appeared, beginning to assess the aptitude of the martial artists who ca to apply.
"Fifty years old and only at the Void Martial Realm? Unqualified. Our Luofu Mountain aims to beco a top-tier sect in the Central State and will not accept the weak."
"Thirty years old at Virtual Martial Ninth Level? Hmm, acceptable. With diligent cultivation in Luofu Mountain, you’ll soon enter the inner sect and beco an inner sect disciple. Declare your na, and I will register you."
"Forty-eight years old, Virtual Martial Realm Second Level, barely acceptable. Enter Luofu Mountain and focus on cultivation."
...
The outer stewards continued sifting through the martial artists, comnting persistently.
The criteria for selecting disciples was simple: age and cultivation.
The younger they were and the higher their cultivation, the greater their potential and likelihood of becoming powerful in the future.
Luofu Mountain was, of course, eager to accept such individuals.
Those selected were ecstatic, while those eliminated were despondent.
Everyone knew that despite Luofu Mountain’s current depletion, its control of a domain ant it could quickly rise from a second-rate force to a first-rate force with unlimited potential.
Moreover, the arrival of the Iron Blood Emperor’s son, who defeated the Azure Dragon Sect’s hierarch, suggested a possible connection between Luofu Mountain and the Iron Blood Emperor Domain.
This connection alone greatly increased Luofu Mountain’s appeal.
With the Iron Blood Emperor Domain’s support, Luofu Mountain would inevitably soar, and many martial artists hoped to join.
"Hehe... Who would’ve thought Luofu Mountain could rise from the ashes in such a short ti—a real surprise!"
Amidst the bustling crowd, an ordinary-looking martial artist erged.
He exuded an invincible aura, his deep eyes and wind-tossed black hair revealing an astounding presence.
This person was none other than Xiao Ye, who had altered his appearance.
Traveling from Sealing Emperor City to Luofu City, he had used his Domineering Body to heal his injuries, now standing amidst the crowd, observing Luofu Mountain’s disciple recruitnt.
Seeing the familiar scene, Xiao Ye recalled the heroic monts when the Invincible Army shielded his escape, only to be slaughtered by Luofu Mountain’s Titled Emperor Martial.
From that mont, Xiao Ye had sentenced Luofu Mountain to death in his heart.
"Brothers of the Invincible Army, I, Xiao Ye, have co back to avenge you. I will not let your blood be shed in vain." Xiao Ye’s eyes flashed with determination as he stepped towards Luofu Mountain’s gate.
"What are you doing?"
"If you want to join Luofu Mountain, follow the rules and line up!"
Seeing Xiao Ye, an outer steward of Luofu Mountain snorted coldly.
On their turf, daring to cut ahead was audacious!
But Xiao Ye ignored him, steadily walking towards the gate.
"Courting death!"
An outer steward growled, reaching out his palm towards Xiao Ye.
Boom!
But at that mont, Xiao Ye lightly waved his hand, unleashing a surging force that hit the steward hard.
"Ah!"
The steward turned pale, spitting blood, and was sent flying, crashing onto the ground.
Silence descended over the plaza, and everyone stared in shock.
Who was this, bold enough to attack an outer steward of Luofu Mountain?
"Daring to cause trouble at Luofu Mountain, you must be tired of living!"
The next mont, eight outer stewards shouted in unison, charging at Xiao Ye.
"Hehe... Sorry, I’m here to cause you trouble today. Get out of my way!" Xiao Ye laughed coldly, bellowing fiercely.
