Chapter 1380 - 1377: Five-element Divine Thunder Skill!

Chapter 1380: Chapter 1377: Five-element Divine Thunder Skill!

"Are you practicing the... ’The Great Five Elements Secret Skill’?"

Gui Jing asked with a smile.

Lin Bai nodded and said, "Junior indeed obtained the ’The Great Five Elements Secret Skill’ by chance in the early years, and this skill has become the main cultivation technique I practice."

Gui Jing chuckled, "Since this is the main technique you cultivate, you must have already discovered that the ’The Great Five Elements Secret Skill’ you’re practicing is nothing but an incomplete fragment."

Lin Bai nodded his head.

Gui Jing said with a light smile, "The ’The Great Five Elements Secret Skill’ is one of the ancient scriptures passed down from the Five Elements Sect. However, after the demise of the Five Elements Sect, this ancient scripture was competed for by many powerhouses."

"As a result, the scripture was split into several parts and scattered across the Barbarian Ancient Continent!"

"And ’The Great Five Elements Secret Skill’ is just the foundation of the ’Scripture of Five Elements’! Cultivating until you form the Five Elements Divine Pill is considered reaching a peak. Of course, you can continue to cultivate, but the effectiveness is much reduced,"

Gui Jing stated casually.

At this moment, Lin Bai finally understood that ’The Great Five Elements Secret Skill’ was merely the foundational part of the Five Elements Scripture!

Lin Bai bowed and said, "Senior Gui Jing is correct. After breaking through to the Flying Sky Realm, I increasingly felt the limitations of the ’The Great Five Elements Secret Skill.’ Although I was aware that it was due to being an incomplete piece, I had no solution!"

Gui Jing smiled and said, "That’s what I was about to tell you!"

"The second volume of the Five Elements Scripture, my Heaven-reaching Sword Sect has it!"

Gui Jing’s eyes twinkled as he looked at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai looked at Gui Jing with extreme shock and exclaimed, "Senior Gui Jing, do you know the whereabouts of the subsequent volumes of the Five Elements Scripture?"

Seeing the joy on Lin Bai’s face, Gui Jing immediately wore a happy smile.

Meanwhile, Bao Song’s expression turned ugly upon witnessing this scene.

Gui Jing said lightly, "Because disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect are widespread under Heaven, many sword cultivators who obtain cultivation techniques they cannot use would bring them back to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"

"About fifty years ago, a disciple of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, on his deathbed, handed over the second volume of the ’Scripture of Five Elements’ to our sect."

"However, the second volume of the ’Scripture of Five Elements’ is divided into five parts, and Heaven-reaching Sword Sect only obtained one of them, named: ’Qingmu Divine Thunder Decree’."

"Over the years, the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect has also been mobilizing its disciples to search for the remaining four parts of the second volume of the ’Scripture of Five Elements.’ Now we have some clues, but I shouldn’t say too much about this here..."

Gui Jing said, with a cryptic smile, then looked towards the big shots from the Seven Major Sects around him and fell silent.

"The second volume of the Five Elements Scripture, the Five-element Divine Thunder Skill!"

"The Five-element Divine Thunder Skill is divided into five parts, and what the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect obtained is one of them, the Qingmu Divine Thunder!"

"I was planning to join a sect and try to find the remaining volumes of the ’The Great Five Elements Secret Skill,’ but I never expected Senior Gui Jing to point me towards such a clear path!"

"Since one of the five parts of the second volume of the Five Elements Scripture is in the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, it seems that I must definitely go there."

Lin Bai thought quietly to himself for a moment.

Gui Jing laughed and said, "I have made clear to you the advantages and disadvantages. It is up to you to choose whether to join the Donglan Sword Sect or the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect."

Gui Jing finished speaking and waited for Lin Bai’s answer.

Bao Song also looked at Lin Bai seriously.

Lin Bai took a deep breath, bowed, and said, "Senior Bao Song, Junior has long admired the Donglan Sword Sect for its plethora of strong sword cultivators and has aspired to it for a long time. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely visit the Donglan Sword Sect, and I hope that Senior Bao Song will not reject me when that time comes!"

"However, today, I, Dongfang Bai, came here to attend the Disciple Recruitment Conference with the sole goal of joining the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"

"Therefore, my final choice is... the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"

"Senior Gui Jing, I am willing to join the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"

Lin Bai said with a smile while bowing.

Upon hearing this, Gui Jing was overjoyed and, with a smile on his face, said, "Good, Dongfang Bai, from now on, you are an inner disciple of my Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"

"Hahaha."

Gui Jing burst into hearty laughter and glanced at Bao Song.

Bao Song’s face looked even uglier than if he had swallowed a bitter herb!

In the end, Bao Song heaved a sigh, "Dongfang Bai, you have made your choice, and this old man has no right to interfere. If you are fortunate enough to visit the Donglan Sword Sect in the future, this old man and the Donglan Sword Sect will certainly welcome you with open arms!"

Lin Bai cupped his hands in a salute towards Bao Song.

Then, a hint of ferocity flickered in Lin Bai’s eyes as he thought to himself, "Yejian Jun, I have arrived, and we will settle our vendettas slowly!"

In fact, Lin Bai had come to this place to participate in the All Nations Disciple Recruitment Conference with the sole purpose of joining Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!

Only by joining the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect could Lin Bai get close to Yejian Jun, and only by getting near Yejian Jun could Lin Bai be confident in killing him!

Yejian Jun was the first target Lin Bai had picked to kill!

He was the first, but he would definitely not be the last.

Lin Bai would seek out each of the Six Freaks of Lingnan one by one!

And Yejian Jun would be the first to die at Lin Bai’s hands!

The much-anticipated Successor of the Demonic Sword, in the end, chose the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, causing the entire audience to gasp in shock!

"Ha-ha, congratulations to Heaven-reaching Sword Sect for gaining another genius sword cultivator!" The Lord of Purple Gold City said with a smile at this moment.

"Congratulations, Gui Jing Old Ghost, your Heaven-reaching Sword Sect has grown much stronger," Han Zikun also said with a laugh.

"By the time this Successor of the Demonic Sword truly matures, I’m afraid even our Saint Seal Sect will have to look on with fear. Congratulations, congratulations," Dong Qian said with a pun, laughing.

Gui Jing was all smiles as he said, "Thank you, everyone, thank you all!"

Lin Bai had already chosen to join the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, and the next most anticipated were Young Master Qian Shui and Ni Xiangen.

In the end, Young Master Qian Shui chose to join the Donglan Sword Sect!

However, Ni Xiangen unprecedentedly refused the invitation of the Saint Seal Sect and instead joined the Seven Luminaries Starfall Mountain!

Upon seeing Lin Bai joining the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, both Gujian Yun and Xue Qing also chose the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, fortunately, since the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect had an open-door policy for discipleship. Otherwise, given the talents of Gujian Yun and Xue Qing, it would have been difficult to join Lingnan’s Number One Sword Cultivation Sect!

In the arena, the sole Young Master Level talent, Warrior, had now settled down.

Next were the talents from the Second Step of the Sky Ladder.

Facing the talents of the Second Step of the Sky Ladder, the big shots of the Seven Major Sects were obviously not as enthusiastic as they were with the talents from the first tier; if you wished to join, then join, if not, so be it!

Soon, in Purple Gold City, more than three thousand people, either from the Night Crow Mountain Range or returning, were recruited by the seven great sects!

The recruiting standards of Heaven-reaching Sword Sect were that as long as you wished to cultivate the Sword Art, the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect would welcome all comers!

Three hours later, the recruitment was completed, and all the warriors participating had joined sects!

The Lord of Purple Gold City stood up at this moment and said with a smile, "This old man has already prepared a feast in Purple Gold City; everyone can enjoy the food and drink to their heart’s content before leaving!"

"Additionally, Purple Gold City will remain open for three months. Although the recruitment has ended, during these three months, Purple Gold City will not expel anyone."

"After three months, Purple Gold City will close once again," said the Lord of Purple Gold City, still smiling.

"Dongfang Bai, young friend, this old man is also extraordinarily interested in the Demonic Sword in your possession. May I invite you to accompany me to the City Lord Mansion for a chat?" The Lord of Purple Gold City invited Lin Bai with a smile at this moment.

Lin Bai was taken aback upon hearing this; could it be that the Lord of Purple Gold City also had his eye on the Demonic Sword and wanted to take it?

Upon hearing this, Gui Jing’s eyes darted about, and he said, "Dongfang Bai, go ahead. The Lord of Purple Gold City is, after all, a notable figure on the Lingnan Continent, and it’s not in his nature to prey on the weak and seize your Demonic Sword!"

"However, Lord of Purple Gold City, Dongfang Bai is now an Inner Disciple of my Heaven-reaching Sword Sect. If he comes to any harm within your mansion..."

Gui Jing’s words trailed off, his speech laced with a hint of chill.

The Lord of Purple Gold City laughed and said, "Gui Jing, do I look like the kind of person who bullies the weak?"
