  Lieteng arrived at the Wanjian Sect, and the news spread like it had grown wings throughout the 101 mountain peaks of the sect. Many disciples discussed what made this young man stand out in the eyes of the Sword Madman, and for a time, the young people from various peaks gathered at Sanlao's mountain peak, Nuojian Peak.

  At the foot of the Sword Peak, because Lie Teng was not yet a formal disciple of the Sword Maniac, although it could be said that he was almost a disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, but the Sword Maniac had not yet held a grand ceremony to accept disciples. Therefore, Lie Teng could only be considered a nominal disciple, and as a nominal disciple, he was not allowed to ascend the mountain, so he could only live at the foot of the mountain.

  At this time, in a place called Tingfeng Pavilion at the foot of Nu Jianfeng Mountain, Lie Teng was smiling and greeting the disciples of Wanjian Sect who had arrived. The young cultivators around him were all staring at Lie Teng, discussing among themselves. Every disciple who entered the pavilion introduced Lie Teng to the situation of Wanjian Sect with a smile, even telling him where the secret books were kept and where the cultivation venues were. In their eyes, Lie Teng was already a disciple of Jianfengzi, and as a disciple of one of the three elders of Wanjian Sect, although he was only a junior, there were thousands of juniors in Wanjian Sect, but Jianfengzi's strength made Lie Teng's identity superior to them from the beginning. It can also be said that he could sit on an equal footing with the three junior sect masters of Wanjian Sect.

  "Lie Teng, my junior brother, come visit me more often when you have nothing to do. The three elders are in seclusion and will probably be there for a while longer. Although I haven't officially taken you as my disciple yet, don't become too unfamiliar with me." A middle-aged man at the fourth level of Golden Elixir smiled and said this, Lie Teng hastily nodded in agreement, having heard these words countless times before, his face muscles almost cramping from smiling.

  It wasn't until the third day that the number of visiting disciples decreased, and Lie Teng also realized that although Wanjian Sect was just a sect, it was divided into several factions behind the scenes. The large Wanjian Sect was not as harmonious as it seemed on the surface, and the infighting between fellow disciples was not uncommon. This Wanjian Sect was like a miniature cultivation world.

  However, Lie Teng had no interest in these factions. He was single-mindedly focused on cultivating and improving his skills, waiting for Jian Fengzi to come out of seclusion. What Lie Teng cared about was the battle with Leng Ye. From his fellow disciples, he learned that Leng Ye had been in closed-door training since two years ago and still hadn't come out yet. These fellow disciples rarely mentioned Leng Ye in front of Lie Teng. Although they knew about Lie Teng's decisive battle with Leng Ye, it didn't affect their friendship with him. After all, Lie Teng was favored by Jian Fengzi! His strength shouldn't be too bad!

  The Wan Jian Sect is indeed one of the nine major sects, with a spiritual energy density inside the sect that is at least ten times higher than outside. It's undoubtedly the best place for every cultivator to practice. Lieteng sat in meditation in the courtyard, and over the past few days, the number of visitors had decreased significantly, making him much more relaxed. Looking out at the continuous peaks in front of him, Lieteng couldn't help but sigh that this vast Wan Jian Sect was like a giant tree reaching for the sky, with its disciples being the dense foliage that almost covered the entire Western cultivation world.

  Lie Teng couldn't help but admit that the Wan Jian Sect's strength was indeed profound. The several hundred people who had come to visit in recent days were all at the Nascent Soul stage or above, nearly ten thousand, and this was only a portion of the disciples who had come to pay their respects. As for those who hadn't visited, it was unknown how many more there were.

  At this time, Lie Teng, who was sitting in meditation, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the figures flying rapidly from above. His expression first showed a hint of helplessness, but then he was shocked. He sensed that among the three people coming, the lowest cultivation level had only reached the Condensing Dan stage, one was at the third layer of the Condensing Dan stage, and there was also one whose cultivation level he couldn't see through.

  Three people rushed to Lie Teng's front, and they couldn't help but size him up. After a moment, the young man who had condensed his dan into three layers looked at Lie Teng with a smile on his face: "It seems that this is the legendary Lie Teng Shidi, I've long admired your great name. My name is Yu Feng, this is my senior brother Lin Chi, and my junior brother Wang Ben. We are disciples under the Nine Elders' Gate."

  This young man, named Yu Feng, came and introduced himself. Lie Teng smiled calmly and said: "The three of you are polite." These three people were all disciples under the Nine Elders' gate, their status was not low either, so naturally Lie Teng wouldn't offend them.

  That young man named Wang Bei showed a hint of disdain in his eyes, while the man named Lin Chi burst out laughing and walked forward, patting Lie Teng's shoulder and saying: "Lie Teng, my junior brother, from now on we are fellow disciples, no need for formalities. I'm really envious, this vast Nuo Jian Peak, where do you plan to live?"

  Lie Teng slightly raised an eyebrow at Lin Jie's hand, smiled calmly, and this sword lunatic was a freak of the Wan Jian Sect. His strength was powerful, but he had never accepted any disciples, which made Nuo Sword Peak always the mountain peak with the least number of people in the Wan Jian Sect. In previous years, this vast Nuo Sword Peak almost only had one person living there, while other mountain peaks had hundreds or thousands of disciples. At the same time, under an elder, disciples would sometimes secretly fight for a place to live. This Wan Jian Sect's Nuo Sword Peak was more spiritual and abundant in energy as you went up. After all, who didn't want to cultivate in the most concentrated spiritual energy? These days, many visiting disciples had ideas about getting close to Lie Teng and cultivating on Nuo Sword Peak, but they were all vaguely put off by him.

  Lie Teng smiled and said, "Lin Chi Shixiong is joking. First of all, I'm just a nominal disciple, and besides, who knows if the three elders will let me stay on this mountain in the future?"

  The three of them looked at each other, and the young man named Wang Bo said with a bright smile: "If the three elders don't allow our junior brother to live on Sword Moving Peak after the ceremony, he can move to where we are. Although our place is small, as long as our junior brother is willing to come, there will certainly be a place for him."

  Lieteng slightly raised an eyebrow at this Wang Ba youth, only to smile faintly and not respond. However, Wang Ba's smile was slightly stiff, with a hint of annoyance flashing in the depths of his eyes. Yu Feng saw this and hastily chimed in with a laugh: "In all these years, I've never heard of the three elders taking on an apprentice, and even among the registered disciples, there's only Lieteng shixiong, so it's natural that he would be cherished."

  "I've heard that Lieteng Shidi has exceptional talent, which is why the three elders have taken notice of him. The three elders' gaze is notoriously venomous within the sect, and I'm eager to see it for myself. I wonder if Lieteng Shidi would be willing to exchange blows with me?" Wang Ben said with a smile, taking a step forward. Lin Chi and Yu Feng exchanged a glance, and then Yu Feng stepped forward, rebuking him: "Shidi, don't be reckless! Lieteng Shidi has only just arrived at Wanjian Sect and hasn't been here for many days, and it's likely he hasn't been in the foundation-building stage for long either. There will be plenty of time to exchange blows later."

  Lie Teng gazed at the three with a calm and collected expression, sneering inwardly. These three had ill intentions from the start. Although Yu Feng was scolding Wang Bo, his words were actually goading himself. It's likely that these three had come to collude with Leng Ye. If so, Lie Teng didn't mind playing along. He said in a deliberately cheerful tone, "Yu Feng Shixiong, no need to worry, I've been thinking the same thing."

  Yu Feng's eyes gleamed slightly as he heard the words, and after a moment of contemplation, he said: "In that case, Lie Teng Shidi still needs to be careful. Wang Ben Shidi has reached the stage of forming elixirs for some years now. Wang Ben Shidi should remember to stop at the right point."

  Wang Bo heard that Lie Teng had actually agreed, and a hint of mockery and disdain flashed in his eyes. A spiritual sword flew out and revolved around him. Lie Teng looked at the sword and secretly sighed that it was indeed worthy of being from the Wan Jian Sect's wealthy and arrogant style. The sword was actually of mid-grade treasure level. Lie Teng hastily took out Xue Sword and held it upright in front of him. Wang Bo almost burst into laughter, while Yu Feng and Lin Chi, who were standing behind, also suppressed their smiles. How could a mid-grade true instrument like the Snow Sword possibly enter their eyes? If they hadn't been considering Lie Teng's identity, they would have probably ridiculed it long ago.

  "Be careful, Lie Teng." Wang Bo said in a low voice as he made a hand seal with both hands. The spiritual sword emitted a buzzing sound and shot towards Lie Teng instantly. Lie Teng's expression changed slightly as he quickly retreated and used his Snow Sword to block Wang Bo's spiritual sword.

  Half a minute later, Lie Teng fell to the ground with a thud, retreating backwards with a "thud" sound, and blood was already oozing from the corner of his mouth. Xue Jian had long since shattered into pieces on the ground. Wang Bo stepped forward, his face filled with disdain, as if he had been tainted by fighting Lie Teng.

  "Alright, that's enough! Lie Tian, you've already reached the first layer of the Congealing Dan stage and have such strength, which is quite good." Yu Feng laughed loudly, his tone no longer as gentle as before.

  "Alright, alright!" Wang Bo retracted his Ling Sword and looked at Lie Teng with a proud smile. The three of them exchanged some pleasantries before leaving, Lie Teng wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at their backs, not only did he sneer, if it weren't for wanting to hide his true strength, his Phantom Sword would be enough to instantly kill Wang Bo, Lie Teng didn't want to reveal his true strength, after all, in his battle with Leng Ye, he still needed to keep some tricks up his sleeve.

  Yu Feng and the other two flew through the air, discussing their previous sparring match. Suddenly, Yu Feng spoke in a low voice, "Wang Bo, how does Lie Teng's strength compare to Shao Zong's?"

  "Clay chicken, tile dog. At first, Shao Zong had just broken through the Cong Dan and could defeat me, but so many years have passed, and his strength has increased by who knows how much. This time in seclusion, his cultivation will probably soar. That Lie Teng dares to challenge Shao Zong with this strength, it's simply that he can't bear to live. Fighting him once is truly an insult to my sword." Wang Bei sneered.

  The next day, Lie Teng thoroughly cleaned up and became idle, it was unknown whether he had gone to spar with Wang Bo or what, but no one came to visit Lie Teng anymore. In their eyes, Lie Teng could almost be confirmed as the third elder's disciple, but undoubtedly a dead man. With the decisive battle against Leng Ye Shao Zong, Lie Teng would definitely die.

  On the sixteenth day of Lie Teng's arrival, news finally spread that Leng Ye had come out of his seclusion.
