That was the place where the Sect Level Conference was held in the Snow Province every ten years.

  A large number of warriors and parties gathered around the Mirror Lake in the Lover’s Valley one month before, and it turned into a hustle and bustle. Many of them may not be qualified to attend that decennial event, but even if they just looked at it from a distance, they could boast that they had attended the Sect Level Conference when they reached old age, and that could be glory for their whole lives.

  The main force of the nine sects had not arrived yet, but they had begun to prepare for it many years prior.

  In fact, most of the industries around the Lover’s Valley belonged to the nine sects; their operations and supervision never had a moment of relaxation.

  As time drew nearer and nearer, the people around the Mirror Lake became more and more.

  Inns, villas and restaurants could not accept so many customers, so many wandering warriors who had arrived from afar had to pitch tents a few tens of kilometers away as temporary shelters. Fortunately, it was early summer at that time, and therefore it was not so unbearable to live in a tent.

  From the big nine, the sect that reached the Mirror Lake first was the Heart-cleansing City, which was the nearest sect.

  When “Heart-cleansing Sword King” Dongfang Tianxing, the governor of the Heart-cleansing City, appeared, tens of miles around the whole Mirror Lake were in total effervescence.

  That was the first grandmaster dominator in the Snow Province that had appeared in front of everyone.

  The Heart-cleansing City was famous for its sword skills in the Snow Province, and its unique sect skill the Self-observation Heart-cleansing Sword Code ranked the sixth in the outstanding martial arts list in the Snow Province, which was just after the sword code of the Taixuan Sword-seeking Scripture in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.

  Dongfang Tianxing himself also used to be a super genius who was famous in the Snow Province. He had created countless miracles and had a good name: Heart-cleansing Sword King. Along with Li Jianyi, who was also young at that time, together they were called the Two Swords in the Snow Province. It was until the last thirty years when he governed the Heart-cleansing City, he gradually drew in his claws, did not leak his traces and became more and more stable.

  Such big shots that dominated the destiny of the Snow Province were all legendary celebrities. They were usually secretive in their movements and traces; they couldn’t be seen in daily life. They appeared in front of everyone that day; for many people, it was a great luck even to look at the back of Heart-cleansing Sword King from afar.

  That was the world of warriors.

  For a real superior, no matter where he went, he would be sought and worshipped.

  The person who also drew the attention was “Heart-cleansing Sword” Feng Xingyue, who was the first master and the first genius in the young generation of the Heart-cleansing City. That was also a brilliant person, and his fame among the young masters in the Snow Province could be compared with Mu Tianyang, Ding Hao and Phoenix.

  The arrival of the Heart-cleansing City’s superiors was just a crazy prelude.

  In the next few days, the same scene recurred continuously.

  “Destructive Killing King” Song Que, the master of the Falling Star Sect and the first killing master in the Snow Province, led the superiors of the Falling Star Sect, and the brilliant and cruel Falling Star Son also drew the attention……

  Zero Thought Immortal, the head of the Zero Thought Sect and his core disciple “Little Bodhisattva” Lei Tingchan……

  Zero Fate, the head of the Dependent Arising Clan, the son of God and the divine lady of nine generations reincarnation from that sect……

  “Wind Thunder Heaven Voice” Tie Zhan, the head of the Leiyin Sect and Wind Thunder Double Pride, the peak figure among the juniors of that sect……

  Names that usually just belonged to legends revealed their true bodies that day, leaving those warriors who had gone to the Mirror Lake after many hardships extremely excited.

  The Sect Level Conference which was held every ten years was definitely a great event for the whole human tribe in the Snow Province.

  As time went by, more and more superiors and sect masters of the nine sects appeared and the atmosphere around the Mirror Lake became hotter and crazier.

  On that day, when the sun was rising, more than twenty streaks of dazzling flowing light suddenly appeared in northern heaven above the grassland of the Lover’s Valley. They swept like lightning and arrived immediately. Also, the mighty aura, which covered heaven and earth rolled over……

  “That is……”


  “Look, sword light! Have the people of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect arrived?”


  “The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect is a super huge sect. It is an eight-grade sect, which is only after the Tranquility Academy and cannot be overlooked!”


  “This is the true heavyweight sect!”


  “Can we see “Single-minded Sword King” Li Jianyi, the head of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect? He was a sword hero that had defeated all the strong competitors. Heart-cleansing Sword King in the Heart-cleansing City and he were together called Two Swords in the Snow Province at that time. This means that all the other expert swordsmen in the whole Snow Province cannot be compared with those two swords, and no one can surpass them…… Also, it is said that Li Jianyi was a super handsome boy when he was young!”


  “I want to see Ding Hao, a recluse genius who has achieved the primordial realm, starting from being an ordinary person in one year, creating countless miracles. He is a popular candidate who may win the first prize in the young generation of the nine sects in this Sect Level Conference!”


  The crowd was startled and was filled with discussions.

  The Swordsmanship-seeking Sect was a star sect and it naturally drew crazier attention. Almost all the people ran from their tents and looked up at the sky, hoping to capture the presence of the super expert swordsmen of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. The scene was far crazier than those of the other sects that had arrived earlier.

  In a trice, the flowing light flashed and the experts of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect all fell to the ground. They appeared in front of a tranquil villa beside the Mirror Lake……

  “The Swordsmanship-seeking Villa?”


  Falling from the sky, Ding Hao looked up at the golden plaque on the gate and immediately understood; that magnificent villa with a wide floor area was one of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect industries beside the Mirror Lake.

  The four words on the plaque were written by an unknown person, and they were excellent; they had a natural connotation. If a person carefully looked at them, he would feel dizzy and find that those words had strange strength and were mysterious.

  Two magic dragon sculptures, which were more than twenty meters high stood at the gate of the villa; their appearance was lifelike.

  The bluestone gate of the villa was twenty meters high and around ten meters wide. It did not have steps and was wide enough for five carriages to run side by side. The gate was made of kusunoki, with red lacquer and gold nails, and in the center of it was the head of gluttony swallowing a ring. It was surrounded by a tranquil bamboo forest, high walls and green tiles. The whole villa had a unique layout, which secretly included an unfathomable and impregnable inscription formation.

  “This villa is the biggest industry of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect beside the Mirror Lake. The experts are as common as clouds in the villa and there is a high-rank great grandmaster superior in it. It has already been run for hundreds of years,” Li Lan came with a smile and explained carefully.

  Ding Hao’s seniority leapt since he became the disciple of Qi Qingshan, an old monster. In theory, disciples such as Li Lan and Li Muyun had to address him as martial granduncle. However, Ding Hao did not really want to stand aloof from the masses, so they still called him as before. Especially with Li Lan, the relationship was the same in private.
