Rebirth of a Reincarnated Immortal Cultivator
Chapter 9 Xuanjian Sect
Han Li sat cross-legged in the bamboo pavilion, his profound inner energy overflowing from his body. His hair moved without wind, and just sitting there gave people an indescribable sense of oppression.
This feeling gradually dissipated as he finished the body tempering exercise. He let out a long breath, opened his eyes, and a glint of light flashed in them.
In the following period, Han Li consolidated his memories of some martial arts techniques from his previous life, such as the Flying Willow Sword Technique, known for its graceful and agile movements, and the Great Compassion Hand, known for its fierce and powerful techniques.
Inside the courtyard, a figure dancing with a sword rose and fell, like a willow catkin drifting in the wind, unpredictable and elusive, yet fraught with hidden danger.
Han Li's long sword trembled, his movements unpredictable. At this moment, he had already mastered first-class martial arts skills. If he were to encounter Qiu Hai and his gang again, he could easily subdue them without having to run away.
"It's time to get that thing back."
Stopping what he was doing, Han Li pondered for a moment, then packed his bags and hurriedly left Linhe Town, heading towards the Xuanjian Sect.
As a renowned sect in Linzhou, the Xuanjian Sect occupies a vast area far exceeding that of other smaller sects. Furthermore, the Xuanjian Sect boasts a long history, spanning over three hundred years, during which time it has amassed a considerable collection of superior martial arts techniques. These are primarily sword manuals, hence the name Xuanjian Sect (Mysterious Sword Sect).
The Flying Willow Sword Technique he possessed was one of the most renowned sword manuals of the Xuanjian Sect. In his previous life, he had spent a considerable amount of time gaining the qualification to enter the Scripture Pavilion and select a sword manual.
Through his accumulation over several lifetimes, he had mastered almost all the classic texts of the Xuanjian Sect. The main reason he chose to join the Xuanjian Sect was to retrieve the Six Paths Reincarnation Disc, a supreme treasure.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation Wheel is located in a forbidden area behind the Xuanjian Sect. Without considerable strength and prestige, it's impossible to pass those eight perilous paths. Even some elders can't guarantee a 100% success rate, let alone ordinary disciples, demonstrating the sheer difficulty of this test.
However, it is precisely because of this that the Six Paths of Reincarnation has remained unscathed.
What he needs to do now is to sneak in while the entire sect isn't paying attention, get his hands on the Dao Reincarnation Disc, and then make a quick getaway.
As for the feud between the Xuanjian Sect and the Haiya Gang, try to avoid getting involved and clashing with them if possible.
Han Li remained expressionless as he looked at the hundred-foot-high steps before him.
In the distance, shrouded in mist, stood towering buildings, their surfaces a bluish-purple hue, giving them an air of solemnity and grandeur.
On the steps, towering stone pillars stood tall, and a blue stone plaque gradually appeared as Han Li continued forward, bearing the three ancient characters "Xuanjian Sect".
"Who are you, and what are you doing here!"
Han Li looked around as he slowly walked forward. Suddenly, a shout came from ahead, and then three or five young men dressed in Taoist robes appeared in front of him, their eyes full of vigilance.
"My name is Han Li, and I am the newly accepted disciple of Elder Li Changfeng. This is my identity jade token. Please take a look." Han Li said, taking out a cyan token from his bag and handing it to the other party.
"Are you Elder Li's disciple?"
"Exactly!" Han Li clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.
"The elders have been waiting for you for a long time, please come with me!" After confirming that the jade token was correct, the young Taoist returned the identity jade token to the other party.
"Wait for me?" Han Li was taken aback upon hearing this.
"Not bad!" The young Taoist nodded.
"I wonder what happened? Could you tell me a thing or two?" Han Li, walking along the road, pondered for a moment. He really couldn't figure out what had happened that required someone to be stationed at the door.
"We can't explain the specifics either, but you'll understand when you meet them."
The young Taoist shook his head, looking unwilling to say more.
Han Li didn't ask any further questions, but he secretly became more vigilant.
Soon, led by the young Taoist, Han Li and the others arrived at a secluded courtyard.
Inside the courtyard, a stream murmured, and an unknown fragrance filled the air. This fragrance was quite peculiar, as if it were a mixture of many herbs, brewed together.
Inside the courtyard, one or two pedestrians could be seen occasionally. Most of these people were dressed in blue satin clothes, carrying either a knife or a sword on their backs. They walked with a powerful stride, making no sound, and were likely highly skilled martial artists from the Jianghu (martial arts world).
Among these people, many were carrying bags and strange boxes, dressed like doctors, which aroused Han Li's suspicion.
"Here we are."
Pushing open the door, one could see three or five middle-aged men dressed in blue Taoist robes gathered together, their faces flushed as they discussed something, which could be heard from a great distance.
Han Li bowed to everyone and respectfully said, "I am Han Li, and I greet all my senior uncles!"
One of the middle-aged men glanced at him and said, "You're Han Li... Not bad, not bad."
Another man with his hair tied up looked Han Li up and down, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, and then nodded.
"Han Li, this is our sect leader Wang, this is Martial Uncle Feng Qingyang, and this is Martial Uncle Yang Wanli." At this moment, the young Taoist priest spoke up and introduced them one by one.
"Han Li greets Sect Leader Wang, Uncle Feng, and Uncle Yang." Upon hearing this, Han Li dared not be negligent and immediately bowed.
"Han Li, you're finally back! Your Uncle Li has been talking about you a lot lately. You've already cultivated true qi at such a young age. You're truly a force to be reckoned with."
"Senior, you flatter me. I was just lucky. But Uncle-Master, what exactly happened that required such a large-scale mobilization?" Han Li asked, his eyes full of curiosity as he looked at his three uncles.
Upon hearing this, the three looked at each other and sighed helplessly.
"Let me explain to you. You must be aware of the feud between my Xuanjian Sect and the Haiya Gang. More than three months ago, the Haiya Gang mobilized all its forces to kill Elder Hao, whom we had stationed in Conch Town, and even wiped out the entire Hao family."
"Thankfully, Elder Li was nearby at the time, which saved Elder Hao's last bloodline."
"What we didn't expect was that after wiping out the whole family, these thieves didn't leave Linzhou. Instead, they ambushed people in the Tongluo Village area. On the way back with Hao Le, they were attacked by the Haiya Gang. Although Elder Li Changfeng was highly skilled in martial arts, as the saying goes, it's easy to dodge a spear in the open but hard to guard against an arrow in the dark. Although they managed to escape in the end, the two of them were ambushed and poisoned."
"In the past two months, I have been searching for renowned doctors around Jialing City to treat the two of them, but the poison is extremely difficult to cure. They can only delay and suppress it, but they have no way to eradicate it." Sect Leader Wang sighed and said something that shocked Han Li.
"Then what about my parents and family..." Han Li, who had just come to his senses, suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked.
"Don't worry, they're fine. They're currently staying near Jialin City. We originally wanted to bring them over, but they absolutely refused, so we let them go. But don't worry, we've secretly sent extra people to ensure their safety."
"So that's how it is!" Han Li breathed a sigh of relief, his heart finally at ease.
