Ye Xian immediately turned around, looking at the place where the lightning had struck and then at the sky, wondering where the voice had come from. Then a thought immediately crossed his mind.Heavenly Voice!"Geez! If the Heavenly Voice really belongs to a woman, that's not a good sign!" he muttered while scratching his head."Sorry, Auntie Heavenly Voice! You just made me angry and I... Uh, my hand reacts on its own whenever I'm angry." He said this while seeking her forgiveness.[Why are you calling me "Auntie"? Wow, did I miss part of the story?]"It was just out of respect. But if you don't like respect, I can just call you 'darling.'"This time, a long silence weighed down on the surroundings before the voice continued after a long sigh."Fine! Then let's get straight to the point, Ye Xian."Oh? Ye Xian tilted slightly to the side as he wondered how this voice knew his name. He did not remember telling her. He couldn't help but ask."How do you know my name, anyway?"A light la

The Sword's source ? he wonders inwardly, having never heard of such a name. He decides to first hear what Zhuo Yin has to say, however. "Here in this sect, we have to warn newcomers about what awaits them. It's much better that way, especially since you're my roommate and your mistakes could cause me trouble. I'll just tell you about this first part of Elder Zhao's Peak," said Zhuo Yin firmly while looking at Ye Xian. Noticing that he understood nothing, he then simply explained. "Elder Zhao is the 'elder' of the sect who governs this Peak. Don't pay attention to that for now." "What's an elder?" Ye Xian asked as he listened attentively. Zhuo Yin lowered his voice a little this time as he explained, "An important member of the sect, usually a powerful cultivator who holds an official position." "I'll use a simple term for you... The 10 mountains you surely saw when coming here, five on the right and five on the left, each have a peak where an elder resides. Each of these mountain

"He is going to make us go through a rough time..." Zhuo Yin sighed afterward. Ye Xian couldn't help but wonder whether he should be worried or not. But when he remembered that no one had seen him, he couldn't help but sigh deeply. After quite some time, the curtain that served as an obstacle, preventing anyone from seeing inside Chen Badao's room, was pushed aside as a middle-aged cultivator came out with a grim expression. Just one look gave the impression of seeing a furious beast, forcing the aspiring disciples to retreat a little and lower their heads. The man looked at them with a grim expression before his eyes landed on Ye Xian, who hadn't lowered his eyes. Ye Xian felt his scalp tingle. Damn! Does he know it's me? Ye Xian couldn't help but think inwardly, but suddenly, the man's cold gaze transformed into astonishment. Ye Xian sighed as he understood what was happening. Another one who was astonished by my face, or perhaps the length of my hair... He reassured himself inw

Immediately, the water of The Sword's Source behind him stretched out before enclosing Ye Xian inside a sphere of water, preventing the spear from entering as it became lodged in the barrier. [ Stop! ] the Heavenly Voice echoed, ending Ye Xian's meditation as he immediately opened his eyes. "What the..." Before Ye Xian could finish his question, his face stiffened when he saw the scene before him. "Damn!" He sprang to his feet as the Qi Condensation Spirit Pill flew into one of his pockets. At the same time, the spear, as if remotely controlled, withdrew and returned to a certain spot on the tree from which it had been launched. The darkness made it impossible to see who was over there. The water of The Sword's Source returned to its place while swirling, as Ye Xian wondered why the spring had helped him. But he pushed that thought aside as he suddenly activated his cultivation base. The spiritual energy that seemed to contain tiny stars burst out of his body, surrounding him

A young man was revealed when the beam of light disappeared. It was the same one who had brought Ye Xian to the sect. He frowned as he looked at the smoke in the distance.First the anomaly with the spiritual wood, and now this... What the hell is happening? he thought before shooting straight toward the forest like a beam of light.______________Meanwhile, Ye Xian was looking for a way to put an end to the fire that was spreading as he ran while looking behind him. No matter how much he thought about it, he simply couldn't find any solution.Then suddenly, his thoughts turned toward the sword source, but before he could do anything, his gaze wavered when he saw that the fire had stopped spreading and approaching him. He couldn't help but be surprised. But it was especially at that moment that he understood something and looked around..."Where is this place?" he blurted out in astonishment. All around him, there was only what looked like a desolate land, where there were only long,
