My disciple's cultivation returns ten thousand times, so I have to be invincible.

As they approached, they could see scattered figures gathering outside the mountain pass ahead. It turned out that several groups of people had been waiting there for a long time.

It can be vaguely seen that they occupy the surrounding area and are divided into three parties.

Obviously, they were the people from the three sects in the southern region who controlled the other three pieces of iron that Lan Tianhe had mentioned before.

The arrival of Zhan Yuezong and his group obviously attracted the other party's attention.

The first thing they saw as they approached was a group of monks wearing white robes or palace dresses to the southeast of the mountain pass.

This group of monks included both men and women, but almost all of them were handsome, had extraordinary temperaments, and had cold expressions, looking somewhat different from ordinary people.

The most conspicuous ones were the two leaders, especially the leader at the front. He looked to be about thirty years old, with long hair, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, fair skin, and a handsome appearance.

The man had his hands behind his back and looked cool and aloof.

Seeing Lan Tianhe coming, he nodded slightly.

"Sect Master Lan."

Lan Tianhe also nodded in response and said at the same time: "Master Ming, you are here as expected."

Then he looked behind the other person, at the young woman who was wearing a white palace dress, tall, cold and elegant, yet with a beautiful face.

"This must be the new Saintess of Jingxin Lake, you know, she's truly extraordinary."

The woman also bowed her head slightly and saluted Lan Tianhe.

"Ming Suxin greets Sect Master Lan."

Lan Tianhe nodded in response, but at the same time sent a message to Zhong Qing to introduce him.

"This is someone from Jingxin Lake, a first-class sect in the southwest of the Southern Territory. Jingxin Lake has a long heritage and a strong foundation. Its strength is not inferior to that of my Zhanyue Sect."

"That Mingyue Immortal Sect Master has reached the Three Yin Realm, and his cultivation is unfathomable."

Zhong Qing didn't expect Lan Tianhe to introduce himself to him. He didn't say much, but just nodded in response.

However, Ming Yuexian, the leader of Jingxin Lake, glanced at Zhong Qing.

At the same time, people from the other two sects also approached.

"Isn't this Sect Master Lan Tianhe? You are really late. I thought you were not coming."

Seeing another group of monks wearing blue and white striped sect uniforms approaching, they also had extraordinary demeanor, but their every gesture seemed to reveal an overbearing aura.

When Lan Tianhe saw them, he frowned slightly, then smiled indifferently.

"Master Han, you're joking. If we hadn't come, how would you have opened the entrance to the secret realm?"

"If we can't open the secret realm, wouldn't it be a wasted trip?"

At the same time, send a message to Zhong Qing.

"Little friend Zhong, be careful."

"These are monks from the Frost Sword Sect."

"The Frost Sword Sect is a first-class sect that has emerged in my southern region in recent years."

"But they are powerful, not inferior to the old first-class forces at all, and they are extremely aggressive. They have been expanding in all directions and have destroyed many sects and forces."

"They have always acted arrogantly and recklessly. Don't get close to them."

The leader of the group was a tall, thin, and somewhat grim middle-aged man with a sword case on his back. He sneered, "That's right. It's said that to open the secret realm, at least four fragments are needed."

"But only when all six fragments are gathered together can the secret realm be fully opened. Even if the four of us gather together, there are only four fragments."

"I have sent people to search for the other two fragments for many years, but to no avail."

"I didn't expect to meet you today."

"It's true that you can't find anything even after you've worn iron shoes. It takes no effort at all to get here."

As he spoke, his gaze fell on Zhong Qing, and a cold gleam flashed in his eyes.

"This person doesn't seem to be from the Zhan Yue Sect, right?"

Lan Tianhe introduced this person as Han Mingfeng, the leader of the Frost Sword Sect, who was also a powerful person in the Three Yin Realm.

Zhong Qing's clothing and cultivation aura were completely different from those of the Zhan Yue Sect, so it was natural that he was recognized at a glance.

More importantly, because both parties had the secret realm iron pieces on their bodies, it goes without saying that Han Mingfeng must have sensed the two secret realm iron pieces on Zhong Qing's body.
