"It’s a strong presence from the Fire Python Sect!"
When Shi Chengjin and other strong figures from the Fire Python Sect flew over Fire Python Peak, the hundreds of villagers of Luoxia Village finally noticed them. So were caught off guard and cried out loudly in panic.
Among the few strong figures of Luoxia Village, including Huo Hai, hearts were also lifted with concern. However, seeing Fang Bai sitting cross-legged on a large rock at the southernmost end of Fire Python Peak, remaining unmoved with a calm deanor, they too settled down with reassurance.
Ever since Fang Bai slew several stewards and many elite disciples of the Fire Python Sect, he beca like a Sea-Calming Divine Needle in the hearts of the hundreds of villagers of Luoxia Village. They knew as long as he was there, everyone would be safe and sound.
A few days ago, when the villagers of Luoxia Village migrated to the territory of the Fire Python Sect, Huo Hai was still worried whether the strong figures of the Fire Python Sect would suddenly co back and retaliate.
In response, Fang Bai smiled indifferently and said, "You have seen the power of the Defensive Array I have set up. Even a Heavenly Tribulation Ninth Layer practitioner cannot break through. Moreover, within this Fire Python Sect territory, there are massive amounts of cultivation resources stored over millennia. With these cultivation resources, even if all the disciples of the Fire Python Sect unite to launch continuous attacks, I can ensure the Defensive Array will not be breached for several years!"
Setting up an array requires a large number of Spirit Stones for support, and the Fire Python Sect has stored tens of millions of Royal Grade Superior Spirit Stones over its millennia. With these Spirit Stones as assurance, Fang Bai can keep the Defensive Array he set up continuously operational for several years.
And how could the strong figures of the Fire Python Sect possibly spend several years here relentlessly attacking the Defensive Array?
Therefore, upon hearing Fang Bai’s words, Huo Hai imdiately cald down completely.
Nonetheless, the hundreds of villagers from Luoxia Village gathered on the open space in front of the Sect Master Hall of the Fire Python Sect, keeping a keen eye on the movents of the strong figures from the Fire Python Sect.
"In my opinion, starting today, let’s rena Luoxia Village to Luoxia Sect! And Village Chief Huo Hai, you should beco the first Sect Master of this sect. How about it?"
Ignoring the many strong figures of the Fire Python Sect hovering over Fire Python Peak, Fang Bai smiled and spoke to Huo Hai.
Huo Hai was montarily stunned, and then his heart started to throb rapidly.
Being able to establish a sect is the dream of every strong practitioner. However, Huo Hai was previously just a village chief of a small village and never dared to dream this far.
Now, with Fang Bai suggesting it, Huo Hai was tempted. Luoxia Village had already occupied such a cultivation treasure land and possessed abundant cultivation resources. Plus, Fang Bai had taught the villagers an incredible cultivation thod. Given ti, this newly ford Luoxia Sect might truly beco a respectable sect.
"Village Chief, this is a great matter! Henceforth, Luoxia Village will be called Luoxia Sect!"
So elders of Luoxia Village expressed great approval of Fang Bai’s words, their voices trembling with excitent.
The hundreds of villagers from Luoxia Village also echoed in agreent, each filled with fervor and enthusiasm.
"Good!"
Huo Hai clapped his thigh heartily and declared, "From now on, Luoxia Village will be Luoxia Sect! The hundreds of villagers will be the first generation of disciples of Luoxia Sect!"
"Sect Master above, receive our respects!"
As soon as Huo Hai’s voice fell, an elder from Luoxia Village clasped his fists, bowed deeply, and saluted.
The rest of the villagers from Luoxia Village followed suit, clasping their fists and bowing in a similar manner.
Seeing the hundreds of villagers addressing him as "Sect Master" and bowing collectively, Huo Hai’s old face flushed slightly as he waved his hand, saying, "Whom you should be bowing to is not , but Senior Fang. Without Senior Fang, where would we be today? Co, let’s all bow in gratitude to Senior Fang together!"
So, under the lead of Huo Hai, the hundreds of villagers from Luoxia Village gave a deep bow to the cross-legged Fang Bai to express their gratitude.
Fang Bai waved his hand and said, "I can only help you for a ti, but the future developnt of Luoxia Sect relies on yourselves!"
Huo Hai thought for a mont and earnestly requested, "With Luoxia Sect newly established, there are many shortcomings. On behalf of the hundreds of disciples of Luoxia Village, I earnestly request Senior Fang to beco the Supre Elder of our sect, to protect and guide our sect’s developnt! Please, Senior Fang, we hope you agree."
Originally, for an outsider like Fang Bai, being an Honorary Elder of the sect would be most fitting. However, as the savior of Luoxia Village, Fang Bai held extrely high esteem in the hearts of its hundreds of villagers. Huo Hai felt making him an Honorary Elder would be sowhat beneath him.
And for a sect’s Supre Elder, although usually not directly involved in the sect’s day-to-day affairs, one word from them could not be ignored even by the Sect Master.
Huo Hai was sincerely inviting Fang Bai to beco the Supre Elder, with no pretense involved, for as the first Sect Master, he was inexperienced and could only seek guidance from Fang Bai.
Fang Bai shook his head with a smile and said, "I wouldn’t dare take on the Supre Elder position. How about this, if Sect Master Huo is willing, I can be an Honorary Elder."
Despite several pleas from Huo Hai for Fang Bai to take on the role of Supre Elder, seeing Fang Bai firmly unwilling, he had to relent. However, Fang Bai’s agreent to be an Honorary Elder also filled him with great excitent.
With the inception of Luoxia Sect, the first formidable opponents they had to face were the strong figures from the Fire Python Sect. If they could repel these strong adversaries in this battle, they would rise to fa in a single stroke and attract strong practitioners from all sides to join, rapidly expanding strength.
Of course, if they could not repel their enemies and instead had their defense array breached, Luoxia Sect would be as fleeting as a flower in a mirror, becoming a laughable spectacle among the strong practitioners across the land.
The Defense Array set by Fang Bai could only defend against external attacks but could not block sounds, so the conversation of Fang Bai and the others was clearly heard by Shi Chengjin and the strong figures from the Fire Python Sect hovering above Fire Python Peak.
"They have occupied our territory and still plan to establish their sect here. These rustic villagers are nothing more than a bunch of fools who don’t know how high heaven is! Utterly ridiculous!"
Shi Chengjin gazed down, his eyes cold and stern as he spoke.
"Sect Master, this formation is both offensive and defensive, extrely formidable, and difficult to breach!"
Cui Zhenren, who had previously witnessed the might of this formation at Luoxia Village, looked at the Defense Qi Shield enveloping the entire Fire Python Peak, frowned slightly, and felt at a loss.
However, so of the strong figures from the Fire Python Sect who hadn’t participated in the previous attack on Luoxia Village were nonchalant about Cui Zhenren’s words. They were eager to give it a try, waiting for the Sect Master’s command to launch a storm-like attack to break the formation before them in one fell swoop.
Shi Chengjin, being a Sect Master and a Heavenly Tribulation Ninth Layer practitioner, naturally had extraordinary insight. He noticed that the formation before him was unusual and seed flawless.
"No matter how wondrous a formation is, there are always flaws and weak points to be found. You all try to explore it first together, while I observe carefully here."
Shi Chengjin spoke to the higher-ups of the Fire Python Sect behind him.
Commanded, Li Lingfeng, Cui Zhenren, and other higher-ups descended with a howl, standing suspended around Fire Python Peak.
Thus, hundreds of Luoxia Sect disciples and dozens of higher-ups from the Fire Python Sect found themselves staring at each other through the thin layer of the Defense Qi Shield.
