At the foot of Outer Cloud Mountain, a horse-drawn carriage moved slowly, arriving shortly at the gates of the Outer Cloud Sword Sect.
Two disciples stood guard at the gates of the Outer Cloud Sword Sect.
They saw a black carriage approaching from afar, causing them to pause.
"Who goes there? Stop right now!"
One of the disciples immediately drew his sword, warily eyeing the incoming black carriage.
In the front of the carriage sat a boy and a girl, both quite young.
But when the two disciples sensed the visitors' cultivation bases, they couldn't help but gasp.
The girl was at the Shaping God Realm First Level.
And the boy next to her was, surprisingly, at the Fourth Level of the Shaping God Realm.
This is just too terrifying!
In their Outer Cloud Sword Sect, those who could cultivate up to the Shaping God Realm were invariably Elder Level figures who were over fifty years old.
"Call your Sect Master out," Jun Moxiao cast his gaze upon the disciples guarding the mountain gate and raised an eyebrow.
Call the Sect Master out?
The two disciples were taken aback again.
Isn't this young man's tone a bit too arrogant?
Right from the start, he demanded they call out their Sect Master.
"May I ask which sect you belong to? Identify yourselves," one of the disciples cleared his throat and asked with a stern face.
Our Sect Master holds a high position and is busy all day. If we go in and report directly without knowing which sect the visitors belong to, we'll probably be in serious trouble and get punished by the Sect Master for such negligence.
"We are from the Dragon God Sect," Luo Li said, her face cold, revealing her sect.
The two disciples looked at each other, somewhat puzzled.
What is this Dragon God Sect?
Why have we never heard of it?
"Excuse us, we've never heard of the Dragon God Sect," one of the disciples said, bluntly refusing.
If it were a well-known sect of the Ancient Moon Dynasty, we would definitely know of it. But this Dragon God Sect is something we've never heard of.
Luo Li's small face turned slightly colder.
As the Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect, being denied entry by two mere Mysterious Pill Realm cultivators made it difficult for her to maintain her composure.
Luo Li's figure flickered, and like a phantom, she exited the carriage.
She abruptly landed in front of the two disciples, drew her Supreme Golden Dragon Sword, and with a fierce slash, stopped the sword's tip just before one disciple's brow, saying coldly, "It doesn't matter if you didn't know before, but you will know in the future. Go and report to your Sect Master. Otherwise, don't blame me, the Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect, for unleashing a massacre."
The chilling intent from the sword's tip seemed to pierce straight to his glabella, making the disciple's face turn pale as cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
He was just a minor cultivator at the Third Layer of the Mysterious Pill Realm. Facing a powerful expert of the Shaping God Realm, the sheer pressure emanating from her made it hard for him to breathe.
"Please wait a moment! I will go and report to the Sect Master," the disciple stammered, retreating a few steps before turning and bolting towards the sect entrance.
The other disciple beside him was sweating profusely.
He looked at the beautiful young girl before him, his face full of fear, and swallowed hard.
This Shaping God Realm power is truly formidable!
Meanwhile, the disciple who had gone to report ran towards the inner courtyard, where he spotted an elder in a white robe.
"Elder Mu, there are people from the Dragon God Sect outside asking to see the Sect Leader! Please go and inform him!" the disciple said hurriedly.
"What sect is this Dragon God Sect? I've never heard of it! How dare you be so presumptuous?" Elder Mu scolded, his face showing displeasure.
"Elder Mu, those two people are too powerful! Both are Shapers!" the disciple exclaimed, his voice on the verge of tears.
"What? They're Shapers!" Elder Mu exclaimed, visibly shocked.
In the Ancient Moon Dynasty, a Shaper was an incredibly powerful cultivator who could cause tremors with a single stomp.
Even in their Outer Cloud Sword Sect, they had but eight Shapers.
"Could you discern... their specific cultivation levels?" Elder Mu inquired further.
The disciple quickly responded, "I did, Elder Mu! One of them is a young girl, about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she has reached the Shaping God Realm First Level. She claimed to be the Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect. The other is a young boy, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and his cultivation base is even higher—already at the Fourth Level of the Shaping God Realm!"
"What did you say?!" Upon hearing the disciple's report, Elder Mu looked utterly shocked, nearly fainting from the revelation.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old has reached the Shaping God Realm?
That's terrifyingly impressive!
The entire Ancient Moon Dynasty doesn't have such geniuses, does it?
Could they possibly be from outside the dynasty?
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Elder Mu hurriedly set off towards the main hall to report to the Sect Leader.
Upon meeting the Sect Leader, Li Qingshan, he immediately relayed the news.
After hearing the report, Li Qingshan's expression became extremely solemn.
The arrival of two Shapers is no trivial matter.
"Come, follow me. Let's see what exactly is going on," Li Qingshan said, exiting the main hall and heading directly for the mountain gate.
Elder Mu closely followed behind him.
When they reached the mountain gate, Li Qingshan saw two individuals standing outside.
A young boy and a young girl, both remarkably good-looking.
Upon closer inspection, Li Qingshan was taken aback. Just as Elder Mu had said, one of them was at the Fourth Level of the Shaping God Realm, and the other was at the Shaping God Realm First Level.
Both were powerhouses of the Shaping God Realm.
Looking at the two, Li Qingshan couldn't help but sigh internally.
He had cultivated for decades, yet he had only reached the Fifth Layer of the Shaping God Realm.
Yet, standing before him were these ridiculously young individuals, already in the Shaping God Realm.
Especially that young boy. Given more time, he could even surpass me.
Beyond the two, Li Qingshan's gaze fell upon the black carriage.
The carriage seemed ordinary, but it gave him an odd feeling.
Could there be... an expert inside? Li Qingshan mused.
The cautious Li Qingshan quickly released his Divine Sense, scanning the carriage.
However, he found the carriage empty, not a soul inside.
This somewhat eased his tension. It seems the carriage belongs to the young girl.
Elder Mu had mentioned that this girl claimed to be the Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect.
Though the idea of such a young girl being a Sect Master is somewhat amusing... Li Qingshan wasn't laughing.
After all, anyone who could become a Sect Master at the Shaping God Realm First Level certainly has the qualifications.
"Greetings, friends from afar. I am Li Qingshan, the current Sect Leader of the Outer Cloud Sword Sect. May I ask who you are?" Li Qingshan greeted them with a fist-and-palm salute, a smile on his face.
Luo Li, her expression impassive, returned the salute and replied softly, "I am Luo Li, Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect."
Seeing Luo Li conduct herself with such propriety, Ye Yun, who was in the carriage, couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Despite her young age, Luo Li carries herself with the dignified air of a true sect master.
Li Qingshan, hands clasped behind his back, smiled and asked, "May I inquire what business brings you to our Outer Cloud Sword Sect?"
"Summon everyone from your Outer Cloud Sword Sect who has ventured out in the past two months. I need to find an enemy," Luo Li stated, her eyes narrowing as she spoke in a cold voice.
Looking for an enemy?
Li Qingshan's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that some of our Outer Cloud Sword Sect's Shaper Elders have offended this Dragon God Sect?
