Chapter 177 Discussion
Shenfu Gate, the Sect Leader’s Hall.

"Changshou Palace, Taoist Fazhen greets everyone from Shenfu Gate."

A middle-aged Taoist priest with an immortal look stood in the hall with a whisk in his hand.

This person is the deputy palace master of Changshou Palace, Taoist Fazhen, and he is also the leader of this competition.

Although the founder of Changshou Palace was a general, he became fond of Taoist methods in his later years. Later, he simply became a Taoist priest and called himself Changshou Zhenren. He built a Taoist temple on an ordinary hill outside Lingzhou, named Changshou Palace.

The long-lived Taoist had a strange temper. Although he became a Taoist priest, he neither went south to worship the Taoist holy places nor had any intention of communicating with other Taoists. He just shut himself in and meditated on his own.

Most of the descendants of Changshou Palace are also like this. Therefore, although the people in Changshou Palace all call themselves Taoists, they are not recognized by Taoists all over the world.

In addition to the Taoist Fazhen, three other people came to the Changshou Palace this time.

One is the elder of Changshou Palace, and two are the true disciples of Changshou Palace.

Judging from his momentum, his strength must be quite impressive.

Shi Baishan looked at the four people in the hall with his eyes slightly narrowed.

Changshou Palace is worthy of being the major sect in Lingzhou. With just one move, they can produce four martial artists who have reached the highest level of strength. It makes people feel that martial artists who have reached the highest level of strength have become street goods.

The others were also shocked.

It was obvious that Changshou Palace had come with bad intentions.

"So it's Daoist Fellow Fazhen. I'm sorry for not coming to greet you."

Ge Zhen laughed and clasped his fists towards Taoist Fazhen.

He has the most seniority among the people in Shenfu Sect. Since Murong Tian is not here, he should be the one to entertain the guests.

Although Murong Jiujiang can temporarily take over the position of the sect leader within the sect, it would be inappropriate to let him take the lead in receiving the people from the Changshou Palace as there is a difference in seniority.

Not only would it be a failure in hospitality, but it would also bring shame to the Shenfu Sect.

Taoist Fazhen glanced at Ge Zhen. He and the supreme elder of Shenfu Sect were of the same generation, but the difference in strength between the two was too great.

Ge Zhen failed to break through the perception barrier. Although he did not fall into a new realm, there was no possibility of a breakthrough in his lifetime.

Taoist Fazhen broke through to the level of perception five years ago and is a master at the same level as sect leader Murong Tian.

Ge Zhen felt deeply moved as he looked at the Taoist Fazhen who had regained his youth.

Ten years ago, he had met Taoist Fazhen. Like himself, he had stopped at the stage of entering the energy. Unexpectedly, when they met again, he had already become a master of perception.

Even in a major sect in a state like the Changshou Palace, there are only a handful of masters of knowledge and perception, and there are only three people including the Palace Master of the Changshou Palace.

It is said that the Lord of Changshou Palace was just one step away from achieving a breakthrough to enlightenment.

A powerful sentient being has a lifespan of 200 years, so the Lord of the Longevity Palace still has a long time to break through.

However, when it comes to martial arts, a slight mistake could lead to an insurmountable gap. It's hard to say for sure.

As for the powerful Mingxin, a small state like Lingzhou naturally cannot raise a true dragon of that kind.

If Lingzhou had Grandmaster Mingxin, there would have been no need for the Shenfu Sect to resist, because even resistance would have been futile.

Taoist Fazhen: "Brother Ge, Changshou Palace and Shenfu Sect are both major sects in Lingzhou, so we should have more exchanges. These two are outstanding disciples of this generation of Changshou Palace. Why don't we learn from each other?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of several people in the Shenfu Sect became solemn.

Finally, it’s time for the main show.

The purpose of coming to Changshou Palace this time is to allow the younger generation of disciples to learn from each other and exchange ideas.

Ge Zhen: "That's exactly what I meant."

According to the rules of the Xuanyang martial arts world, there is no reason to refuse a challenge when the opponent comes to challenge you. You can lose, but you cannot be a coward.

As the largest sect in Lingzhou, Shenfu Sect cannot afford to lose face.

As soon as he finished speaking, a young Taoist priest beside Taoist Fazhen took the lead and said, "Yan Dong from Changshou Palace, please give me your guidance."

This young man was very arrogant and obviously did not take the true disciples of Shenfu Sect seriously.

Seeing this scene, the true disciples of Shenfu Sect standing in the hall all looked cold.

They are all the geniuses of Huanglong Mansion. How could they have ever been looked down upon?

However, the young Taoist priest did have reason to be proud. He looked to be in his early thirties but he had already broken through the Jin barrier.

Among the true disciples of Shenfu Sect, only five are qualified to fight with him.

Not long after the young Taoist priest stepped forward, a man who looked like a Confucian scholar stepped out from among the true disciples.

"Shenfumen, Shangguan Jinte is here to seek advice."

When the young Taoist saw someone coming out to fight, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

The young Taoist named Yan Dong had extremely thin lips, which made his smile look even more sarcastic.

Yan Dong chuckled.

The whisk in his hand swept forward suddenly at an alarming speed.

Shangguan Jin was the first and most senior disciple of Shenfu Sect to achieve breakthrough. Naturally, he had extremely rich combat experience. He did not show any sign of panic at all, and the long sword in his hand went straight to meet Yan Dong's whisk.

In just a few breaths, the two had already exchanged more than ten moves.

Yan Dong's face turned cold. He felt embarrassed that he had not defeated the opponent in such a long time.

Although Shenfumen is extremely famous in Lingzhou, in Yan Dong's opinion, it is just a local force. How can it be compared with Changshou Palace, the leader of the continent?
His attacks became more and more brutal, and it was obvious that he was really angry.

Shangguan Jin frowned slightly. He had to admit that this young Taoist from Changshou Palace was indeed very strong.

The two of them only fought five moves this time, and Yan Dong found Shangguan Jin's weakness.

The whisk in Yan Dong's hand suddenly turned into a long sword, and the sword directly pierced Shangguan Jin's waist and abdomen!

"you"

All the true disciples of Shenfu Sect were furious when they saw this scene.

If Shangguan Jin had just lost, they wouldn't have been so angry.

The winner was clearly decided, and there was no need for Yan Dong to hurt anyone in the end, but Yan Dong went straight to the killing move. If Shangguan Jin had not reacted quickly enough, he would have become a corpse now.

The smile on Ge Zhen's face faded: "Take Junior Brother Shangguan away and take good care of him." Swords and knives have no eyes, and getting injured during sparring is a common thing. He couldn't possibly attack the young Taoist for this.

Shangguan Jin covered his abdomen with both hands, his face as pale as gold paper.

The sword strike just now left him seriously injured.

He looked at Ge Zhen with a guilty look on his face. The defeat in the first battle had made Shenfu Gate inferior to Changshou Palace.

Ge Zhen waved his hand: "It's okay."

A mean smile appeared on Yan Dong's face again, and he glanced at the true disciples of Shenfu Sect with contempt.

Of course, he was not really stupid. His visit to Changshou Palace was not an ordinary exchange. The more arrogant he was, the more satisfied Taoist Fazhen would be.

"Who else?"

Yan Dong glanced at everyone with his pair of slender willow-shaped eyebrows.

The true disciples of Shenfu Sect standing in the main hall all looked gloomy. Shangguan Jin was already the strongest among them. If even Shangguan Jin was defeated, how could the others fight against the young man named Yan Dong?

Seeing that no one stepped forward to fight for a long time, Yan Dong sneered: "Is there no one at the Divine Mansion Gate?"

Murong Jiujiang's eyes turned cold.

As the current acting sect leader, he did not stand with the true disciples.

In the same situation as him is Bai Yuan. Bai Yuan represents Wanjun Peak and sits in Dong Wanjun's position.

Seeing that no one was willing to fight, Murong Jiujiang took a deep breath and prepared to take action.

But just before Murong Jiujiang opened his mouth, Yan Dong's gaze suddenly turned to Ruan Xiulua who was sitting next to him.

"Master Ruan Feng, I heard that your swordsmanship is pretty good, I would like to learn a thing or two from you."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of everyone in the Shenfu Gate changed.

They didn't expect that the young Taoist would actually challenge Ruan Xiulua, who was already the master of Qianzhu Peak.

Ruan Xiulua narrowed her eyes slightly, murderous intent rising.

Although she is a woman, she is able to sit on the position of the leader of Qianzhu Peak, and her means are no worse than those of men.

Ruan Xiulua was seen holding the long sword placed beside her and was about to stand up to fight, but just as she was about to stand up, the Taibai Peak Master Liu Donghai held her wrist.

Liu Donghai slowly shook his head at Ruan Xiulua.

Ruan Xiulua's identity is completely different from Shangguan Jin's. It's okay to lose among peers, but Shenfumen can afford it.

But if Ruan Xiulua, the peak master, also lost to that young Taoist, the Shenfu Sect would lose all its face.

Liu Donghai had an experienced look in his eyes. He saw that the young Taoist had been deliberately hiding his strength in order to challenge Ruan Xiulua.

Yan Dong raised his lips with a cold smile: "Master Ruan, are you afraid?"

The four people from the Changshou Palace in the main hall turned a blind eye to Yan Dong's aggressive behavior and watched coldly.

Murong Jiujiang could no longer sit still.

As the number one true disciple of the Shenfu Sect, he would not tolerate a true disciple of the Changshou Palace being so arrogant.

But just as Murong Jiujiang was about to take over the fight for Ruan Xiuluan, Bai Yuan, who was sitting next to Ruan Xiuluan, slowly said, "It doesn't even need Uncle Ruan to fight you."

As soon as these words were spoken, Yan Dong's gaze immediately fell on Bai Yuan.

"Who are you?"

"Wanjun Peak, Baiyuan."

When they heard the name Bai Yuan, the three people from Changshou Palace, who had been indifferent until now, cast curious glances at him.

Refining blood and killing with strength, this is an extremely rare achievement even in the Changshou Palace.

I heard that he has made a breakthrough recently and his strength should not be underestimated.

"Oh it's you."

"Do you think I'm a piece of trash like Thunder Hand Xu Kang?"

The young Taoist laughed grimly.

Since he dared to challenge Ruan Xiulua, it was of course because he possessed a fighting power comparable to that of the master of Shenfu Sect.

Bai Yuan: "I think you are a waste."

"you wanna die."

Yan Dong's eyes became extremely cold.

Bai Yuan grinned: "Don't worry, I won't beat you to death."

Hearing this, Yan Dong became extremely furious, and the whisk in his hand, which had transformed into a long sword, suddenly stabbed towards Bai Yuan who was sitting on the chair.

But Bai Yuan had no intention of leaving his seat.

He slapped the armrest with his right hand, and the long sword beside him came out of its sheath with a clang.

Having practiced swordsmanship for a thousand years, Yan Dong had at least thirty flaws in his eyes.

Sword Skill: Cutting the River!
In the horrified eyes of the crowd——

The young Taoist Yan Dong had his whisk and sword cut off by Bai Yuan's sword, and the terrifying force even sent Yan Dong flying out of the master's hall.

one move!
No one present expected that Bai Yuan would defeat Yan Dong with just one move. He didn't even stand up during the whole process.

The dark-skinned middle-aged Taoist who had been standing next to Taoist Fazhen and remained silent finally showed an interested look.

He took a step forward: "Is this Master Dong Feng's method?"

Bai Yuan glanced at the dark Taoist: "It's my method."

The dark Taoist's face showed an even stronger expression of interest.

Bai Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly. This dark Taoist gave him the same feeling as an ancient ferocious beast. Very powerful!
