The next morning.
Taiyi Mountain was bustling.
As for the Dao Sect's competition that was held once every five years.
The Hundred Schools of Philosophy and the various factions sent representatives to watch the battle.
Firstly, he was curious about where Xue Ji belonged to.
Secondly, it was to understand the peak combat strength of the two sects.
At this moment, the Taiyi Mountain Martial Arts Practice Field was full of people.
The representatives of the various major forces surrounded the entire martial arts practice field, and there were no empty seats.
As the Human Sect disciples of the East Dao Master, they naturally could not neglect these people from the various large factions.
They were all busy making arrangements.
As for the sect master of the Human Sect, Xiaoyao Zi.
He sat quietly on the top of Mount Taiyi.
In a meditative state, he entered a state where he forgot everything.
Waiting for Tianzong Xiaomeng to come.
At the banquet.
Gao Jianli glanced at Xiaoyao Zi worriedly.
Yesterday, Xiaoyao Zi had taken the Human Clan's sacred medicine, the Rejuvenation Pill.
His injuries had taken a turn for the better, and his cultivation had also recovered by 70 - 80%.
However, it was clear that they still could not win this match.
Gao Jianli once advised Xiaoyao Zi.
Let him give up on this competition.
But Xiaoyao Zi was not moved.
He believed that even if he knew he was no match for them, he would still go all out.
He represented the Human Sect in the battle and could not bring shame to the Human Sect.
Gao Jianli could only sigh helplessly.
.................................
At the foot of Taiyi Mountain.
There was a thousand-meter-long stone staircase.
It extended from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.
Suddenly, someone shouted.
"The people from the Heaven Sect are here!"
Everyone looked over.
On the stone steps at the foot of the mountain.
A young girl dressed in a silk gown with a head full of snow.
He was walking towards the top of the mountain step by step.
With every step he took, lotus-like Dao runes bloomed under his feet.
The true meaning of Daoism, Lotus Blossom Step by Step!
......
"Hiss, this woman is too young.”
"That's right. I heard that the next sect master of the Heaven Sect is going to fight this time.”
"I didn't expect it to be a little girl.”
"I have heard that Tianzong Xiaomeng is a rare genius who doesn't appear in the world for a hundred years.”
"No matter how talented he is, he looks like he's only eighteen or nineteen years old. How can he be a match for the sect master of the Human Sect?”
Whispers spread around the stage.
When Gao Jianli heard this, he shook his head slightly but did not say anything.
On the mountain peak, Xiaoyao Zi opened his eyes.
He looked at Xiaomeng, who was walking towards him with a lotus in her step.
His eyes were filled with admiration.
This woman might be able to become a Great Dao!
This was Xiaoyao Zi's evaluation of Xiaomeng.
Within a few breaths, Xiaomeng's footsteps didn't seem to change.
However, the distance he took with each step was getting further and further.
In the blink of an eye, he had crossed the martial arts field and arrived at Mount Taiyi.
(The Martial Arts Practice Field is the spectator area, and the competition venue is at the peak of the mountain. When experts exchange moves, the commotion will be huge, and it is afraid of accidental injuries.)）
He stood quietly opposite Xiaoyao Zi.
"Senior Brother Xiaoyao Zi!"
Xiaomeng cupped her hands and bowed like a Daoist of the same generation.
Xiaoyao Zi also stood up and returned the greeting with courtesy.
"Junior Sister Xiaomeng!"
No one would have expected it.
The two people with such a huge age difference were actually of the same generation.
Xiaomeng nodded and got down to business.
"This time."
"I came down the mountain under Master's orders to retrieve Xue Ji!”
"Since that's the case," Xiaoyao Zi smiled.”
"I will definitely not give Xue Ji up.”
"If Junior Sister wants it, then use your strength to take it!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Both sides took a few steps back to widen the distance.
On the mountain peak, two huge waves of Dao runes appeared out of thin air.
The battle between the Celestial Sect and the Heavenly Sect was about to break out.
.....................................
In the martial arts arena on the mountainside.
Two swordsmen wearing bamboo hats looked at each other.
"I can tell," one of them said in a low voice.”
"Xiaoyao Zi has suffered internal injuries.”
"Also, this Xiaomeng, such a young Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant, how enviable.”
The person who spoke was a woman, and her tone was somewhat sour.
The other person was unmoved and said in a deep voice.
"Don't forget the purpose of our trip. It's more important to gather information.”
"I saw Gao Jianli, one of the leaders of the Mo Family, in the crowd just now.”
"It seems that the Daoist Human Sect and the Mohist Sect are indeed colluding.”
"For now, you and I should split up and find the information that the leader needs.”
The one who spoke was a man.
When the woman heard this, she said somewhat reluctantly,"Ah, alright!"
"Gathering information again. How boring…"
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them turned their heads and disappeared into the crowd.
These two were the assassins sent by Zhao Gao.
startled by the salamander's harmony, the sun is hidden.
After hearing that this was to gather information on the collusion between the Taoist Sect and the Mo Clan, he was shocked.
The two of them understood that this was a matter of great importance to the safety of the empire.
He did not dare to delay.
They set off overnight and arrived at the boundary of Taiyi Mountain.
Coincidentally, it happened to be the time for the competition between the Taoist Faction and the Heavenly Faction.
There were many forces that came to watch the battle, so the two of them casually reported their identities.
No one checked carefully, so he easily sneaked in.
At that moment, the two of them began to investigate the information of the Daoist Human Sect and the Mo Sect.
......................................
At the same time.
In the mountains dozens of miles away from Taiyi Mountain.
A group of people was advancing in the dense forest.
The leader wore a red Asura mask.
He was wearing an ancient blood-colored armor.
It is covered with mysterious words.
The tall horse under him.
It was also covered tightly by the vest.
No fur or flesh could be seen.
Behind the masked man was a mighty army of 100,000 heavy-armored cavalrymen.
The leader of the masked men saw the entire Taiyi Mountain from afar.
He ordered the army to speed up.
"Dong dong dong!"
The orderly sound of footsteps could be heard.
The 100,000-strong army advanced together.
In an instant.
The mountain rocks cracked and the trees scattered.
However, strangely, apart from that.
This 100,000-man cavalry didn't make any more noise.
Not even the sound of breathing could be heard.
The forest that the army passed through was deathly silent!
