The Heavenly Cloud Ancient City was located in the Azure Province, one of the Four Prefectures of the Blue Wind Continent. It had three major powers: the God Luo Mansion, the Sky Capital Palace, and the Ice and Snow Pavilion.

And recently, the peace of the entire continent was broken because there was a rumor that, a month ago, in a certain part of the continent, a phenomenon had suddenly occurred. It was very possible that a supreme treasure had been born, or perhaps a peerless genius had been born.

For this matter, the rule of accepting new disciples once every five years and adding new blood was now broken. All the sects in the various provinces had the intention of accepting new disciples now.

At this moment, the Azure Province was also starting to move. They sent out different envoys and posted a name list in each region, requesting the geniuses of the various powers to go to the Sky Cloud City in three days. At that time, the nine great sects would send their representatives to the place to throw out the olive branches, and Jiang Taisui would fish, and the ones who were willing to take the bait would be sent.

This news was undoubtedly a heavenly good news for the geniuses of the various powers in the Azure Province. They were all eager to rise, and the large amount of resources gathered by the nine great sects was undoubtedly a blessed place for them.

When this news came out, the Sky Cloud City naturally could not keep quiet. Other than the three great forces, the dazzling geniuses of the other small families were also incomparably excited, eager to give it a try.

At this moment, within the God Luo Mansion, Luo Xingchen was at the Star Cave at the rear of the mountain. He sat cross-legged and quietly comprehended the three big battle skills that Feng Henxi had given him, namely Earth Splitting Fist, Heartcrush Palm, and Phantom Steps.

The reason why he chose to cultivate in the Star Cliff Cave was because this was a magical place. It could increase the flow of nature's spirit energy and help the martial cultivator cultivate more quickly.

No one knew about this secret other than the members of the God Luo Mansion, and even Luo Nanshan had only just found out about it from Luo Tian.

As for Luo Xingchen, who had quietly comprehended for a whole day and night, he had completely understood the meaning of these words. At this moment, he was trying to practice a battle skill.

"young lord, Palace Chief invites you back to the conference hall."

Just then, the voice came out, and interrupted Luo Xingchen's cultivation.

"Got it." He couldn't help but open his eyes. He stood up, took a light breath, and quickly walked out of the cave. He knew that Luo Tian would not call him unless it was something extremely important.

After exiting the cave, ten steps away, a martial servant was respectfully half-kneeling, waiting for him.

"Let's go!" Soon after, the two of them started walking towards the meeting hall.

He strode into the hall and saw Luo Tian, Luo Nanshan and a sloppy-looking old man lazily lying on a wooden stool. Needless to say, this was his master, Feng Henxi.

"Father, why have you called me here?" Luo Xingchen looked at Luo Tian and asked.

Luo Tian said calmly: "Take a seat." Soon after, Luo Xingchen sat down.

Luo Nanshan walked over, handed over a name list, and said solemnly: "young lord, please have a look."

Luo Xingchen looked at it, and immediately understood what was going on. This was something that the nine great forces wanted to recruit disciples together in the Azure Province, and it was indeed a major event!

Luo Tian glanced at Luo Xingchen and said seriously: "Chen'er, we have already provoked the Ziyin Sect, so I am afraid that our future days will not be easy …" As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced at the lazy-looking old man, deep in thought.

Luo Xingchen also subconsciously looked at his Master. He slept like a dead person, and even let out a sound of pain.

"Ugh …" Luo Xingchen regained his senses, and said. "So, what should we do then?"

Luo Tian sighed, and said: "Now, we can only take this chance, you will have to take a sect as your disciples, and temporarily seek for their protection, after all we do not have any huge enmity with Ziyin Sect, and due to their feelings, after you enter the sect, I am afraid you will not come and disturb us."

Luo Xingchen nodded and started to think.

If you had the talent, they would pamper you. If you didn't have the talent, then they would ignore you, and it didn't matter if you lived or died, it would be a bit too heartless.

For example, when he awakened his ancestral bloodline as a child, almost all of the powers on the continent came. After he became a cripple, the various sects ignored him and even deliberately avoided him.

Right now, Luo Xingchen did not have much desire to join a sect. It was not because he was afraid of the sect's internal strife, but because he wanted to use a different method to improve himself.

"Achoo!" A loud and clear sneeze came out, only to see Feng Henxi rolling from the bench to the ground as he was sleeping soundly. After that, he jumped up and looked around in a fluster, but soon after, he was dumbfounded and broke out in a cold sweat.

Luo Xingchen and the other two were suddenly a little speechless, while and Luo Tian were even more doubtful in their hearts.

Was this the doing of a powerful warrior? They realized that they could not see through Feng Henxi at all. Feng Henxi was acting like an old man who only slept and eat, he did not even seem to have any cultivation realm, and even Luo Tian had doubts in his heart. He did not know what Feng Henxi was thinking.

"Cough!" The three gazes were all fixated on Feng Henxi, causing Feng Henxi's old face to immediately turn red, becoming slightly embarrassed. He immediately coughed on purpose, sat on the chair, and laughed: "About this … "What are you talking about?"

Luo Tian cupped his fists, and said seriously: "I am asking Chen'er if she wants to join the sect. Senior, since you are his master, and his teacher is like a father, I wonder if you have any foresight?"

"Ugh …" "This …" Feng Henxi slowly spoke, laughed and said: "I can only count as half a master for him, how he usually walks his own path, I don't care about that, it's still up to him to decide, you guys don't need to ask me."

Immediately, the light in Luo Tian's eyes dimmed. He guessed that this senior didn't really have a crush on Luo Xingchen, who could guess what a Ranker was thinking? Maybe even saving Luo Xingchen was just out of curiosity.

At this time, Luo Xingchen seriously thought about it and confirmed that he really wasn't willing to join a sect.

Luo Xingchen looked at Feng Henxi with clear eyes: "Master, if Ziyin Sect were to come, can you help me take care of it?"

Feng Henxi curled his lips and glared: "This old man meddling in your affairs is already troublesome enough, wouldn't you think of a way to resolve it yourself?"

"Haha …" Luo Xingchen laughed awkwardly, and thought: If I can solve this problem, why would I ask you!

As for Luo Tian and Luo Nanshan, they felt a bit heavy. This wasn't the result that they wanted.

But he only heard Feng Henxi changing his words, and spoke sincerely: "Disciple, it's not that master is not willing to help you, but with just a few words, I'll immediately take care of that Ziyin Sect, have you thought about it, the reason why I didn't kill you last time was to set up an obstacle for you, you want to become a strong warrior, how can you be afraid of challenges? "If you rely on me for everything, how are you going to get stronger?"

Luo Xingchen and Luo Nanshan's moods changed once again. Originally, it wasn't that Feng Henxi was unwilling to help, but rather wanted to sharpen Luo Xingchen, they immediately understood the reason behind Feng Henxi's actions. They immediately looked at Feng Henxi with reverence.

Feng Henxi squinted his eyes, and casually said: "Don't you guys have a great protective array? That will be very useful, with it there, Ziyin Sect can be used again! "

After he finished speaking, Luo Tian immediately said with a bitter smile, "Senior might not know this, but activating the great protective formation not only requires a large amount of resources, it also requires a sufficient number of experts to control it. My God Luo Mansion has fallen recently, and whether it be in terms of resources or manpower, it is somewhat insufficient …"

Feng Henxi waved his hands indifferently, "This is not a problem, in fact, your method of manipulation might be wrong. Otherwise, with half the effort and double the effort, I will teach you a set of outline of the array and teach you how to make perfect use of it. At that time, you can use up less manpower and activate the array successfully."

Luo Tian's face changed as he became ecstatic. He raised his tone and asked: "Is senior serious?"

"Humph!" "You don't believe this old man?" Feng Henxi rolled his eyes, unwittingly chanted an incantation, opened up the Dimensional Ring and threw out a scroll. Luo Tian took it and looked at it, his expression immediately changed again as his hands started to tremble.

He could only tell that the outline and knowledge of formations were common to all formations. Especially for the smaller scale formations, the explanations were even more detailed. If they weren't an expert of high standards, who would be able to write such a thing?

He almost could not resist the urge to kneel down and kowtow, so Feng Henxi immediately shouted coldly: "Sit back down, don't do this!"

Luo Tian cupped his fists and bowed: "Thank you senior for your gift!"

Luo Xingchen also heaved a sigh of relief. The matter had finally been perfectly resolved, and he didn't need to consider whether or not he should join the sect.

Then, Luo Tian looked at Luo Xingchen and asked seriously: Chen'er, are you joining or not?

"No!" Luo Xingchen's eyes were firm as he said seriously.

"Alright, then you'll decide for yourself." Luo Tian was very open-minded. He knew that Luo Xingchen had possibly inherited his own genes and wasn't willing to be bound.

"Report!"

A martial servant half-knelt before the entrance and reported: "Palace Chief, this is a report from the Azure Continent's Thundercloud Sect and the Myriad Sword Mountain. They want young lord to gather at Broken Sky Mountain in three days' time, and those sects will see that he is present!"

After they had examined him, Luo Tian said calmly: "Chen'er, it seems that the news of your talent returning has been spread. I'm afraid that these two great sects have intentions of taking you in, you can go over in three days.

"Yes." Luo Xingchen nodded, his expression natural.

"Hehe, this is great! This old man likes to watch the show. Disciple, I'll accompany you in three days to see who dares to make things difficult for you!" Feng Henxi slapped his thigh and laughed.

"Alright." Luo Xingchen stood up, "Master, Father, Uncle, I'll go cultivate first."

"Un, go on!" Luo Tian smiled with gratitude.

Immediately after, Luo Xingchen turned around and headed towards the Star Cliff Cave. As for the disciple recruitment meeting three days later, he didn't care at all.
