James was puzzled by their conversation.He looked at Quintina, who was standing in front of some guards from the Ancient Clan, and thought to himself, ‘Could she also be a Welkin Academy disciple?’“Sir Yoan, this way, please.”Quintina made a welcoming gesture, beckoning Yoan to enter.Yoan nodded, turned to James, and said, “Let’s go inside first.”Quintina led James and Yoan into the Ancient Clan’s domain. There was a towering mountain range in front of them, but as they advanced, they entered a paradise full of beautiful mountains and clear rivers.At the furthermost area in their vision were a number of Spiritual Fields.Many people were toiling in the fields.Ahead of them were several buildings. Their structure was nothing close to luxurious and rather simple. It felt like they had arrived in a small mountain village.Along the way, James asked softly, “Sir, who is Quintina?”Yoan whispered, “Ten years ago, she joined the Welkin Academy and became a disciple of our se

Quintina’s voice called out to him once more.Yoan returned to his senses. He looked at Quintina troubledly and said, “A-Actually, I’ve come here to ask for a drop of Ancient Blood.”“Ancient Blood?” Quintina stood up abruptly.She looked at Yoan with a strange expression and said, “Sir Yoan, I’m afraid there’s a bit you don’t know about the Ancient Blood. When our clan’s ancestor was on the verge of death, he used his entire life’s cultivation to create the Ancient Blood. It’s only beneficial to our clan’s disciples. If you’re not a disciple of our clan, the Ancient Blood is useless to you. The Ancient Blood’s power is exceedingly savage. You’ll explode and die instantly if you’re not a disciple of our clan.”James interjected. “It can’t be that bad, right?” Hearing this, Quintina glanced at James.Yoan quickly interrupted, “I’m sorry my disciple couldn’t control his mouth. Please forgive him.”Quintina gently waved her hand. She could not be bothered arguing with James, but s

Despite being composed of simple buildings, the Ancient Clan’s territory was enormous.James and Yoan’s lodgings were arranged in an independent courtyard.Meanwhile, Quintina left to report to her elders.Many mountains could be seen behind the village.A few buildings stood on the mountain peaks.Those qualified to stay in these mountains were prominent figures within the Ancient Clan.Her father was meditating in seclusion. As the Ancient Clan’s Elder, Thoryn Gideon was in charge of the clan’s affairs.Quintina ascended the mountain where Thoryn cultivated.A bearded man in his 70s sat on top of the mountain, playing with a cricket.“Elder Thoryn.” Quintina greeted him from afar.“Quintina.” Thoryn glanced at her, and picked up the cricket.Thoryn remained seated on the ground. He looked at Quintina approaching and asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”Quintina looked at the slovenly elder with a helpless expression, saying, “It’s nothing serious. It’s regarding t

The next day, there was a knock on the door just before dawn.James stopped cultivating and went to open the door.An Ancient Clan disciple stood outside the door. With a respectful look, he said, “Sir, the competition for the right to enter the Pagoda of Flames begins today. The Young Lady has instructed me to bring you to Mount Trinvard.”“Alright, thank you.” James walked out of his room.As he stepped outside, Yoan also walked out of his room.“Sir.” James greeted Yoan.Then, the Ancient Clan disciple led the two out of the village toward a mountain.Mount Trinvard was the highest mountain within the Ancient Clan. It was also the residence of the Ancient Clan’s leader. Under normal circumstances, the clan’s disciples were forbidden to ascend the mountain.Today was an exception as it was an important event for the clan that took place every half a century.The disciples have trained for many years to prepare for this day and to win the chance into the Pagoda of Flames to b

Soon, a few more people appeared on the Ancient Clan’s Mount Trinvard with their disciples James did not recognize any of them.Yoan patiently told James all about them.“Did you see the person talking with Elder Thoryn just now? He’s the Infernal Emperor. He’s a transcendent powerhouse and is one of the top ten in the Ancient Realm.”“The man in gray clothes over there is Emperor Tamerlan.”James observed them from a distance and waited.Some of the Ancient Clan’s elders had left and gathered in a hall on Mount Trinvard.The person leading the gathering was Thoryn.Thoryn’s voice boomed, “Many outsiders are participating in the competition this time. We’ll have to make changes to the competition’s rules. My suggestion to make the participants go through the Mound of Sabers first. We’ll allow those who pass through it to participate in the competition, and the rest will be disqualified. What do you guys think?”“We’ll let you call the shots.”“Elder Thoryn, the Mound of Sabe

A shriek came from beyond, and a young man from the Ancient Clan scrambled out.James glanced over and saw that the young man had been injured by the powerful Sword Intent. He was bleeding all over, and his face was pale as a sheet. He was evidently in a bad mental state.James ignored the young man.Although the Sword Intent in the area was potent, it was still within tolerable levels for him.“James.”Suddenly, a voice came from within the Celestial Abode.After hearing Sophie’s voice, James replied to Sophie, “Yeah? What’s wrong?”Sophie said, “There are many swords and sword techniques here. They’re not particularly special, but they’ll come in handy for you. I can sense that each of these swords comes with a sword technique of its own. Since you’re focusing on your swordsmanship, you should acquire and learn these sword techniques.”“How do I acquire them?” asked James.“Keep going. I’ll guide you.”After listening to Sophie’s advice, James quickly advanced and crossed t

Under Quintina’s gaze, James entered the cave once more.After he entered the cave, he stood two meters away from the divine sword. The sword’s aura was potent, and its Sword Energy was savage. James felt like his body was being scorched by fire.Quintina followed him into the cave again. Seeing that James could stand unscathed close to the sword, she found herself murmuring, “This guy doesn’t seem that weak after all. He can actually withstand the Sword Intent within this cave.”James stood still, and a vigorous Spiritual Power came from within the Celestial Abode. It communed with the divine sword and forcefully snatched the sword technique recorded within it.A fiery red light sank into James’ forehead.At that moment, James’ head was filled with massive amounts of information.It was a complete set of swordsmanship skills, including the cultivation method and the sword techniques.The information felt like it had been branded by hot iron into James’ mind.Since the sword gl

James casually pointed to one of the Ancient Clan’s disciples.“I choose him.”After James selected his opponent, those behind him also began choosing theirs in order.Then, the contest began.Since James was the first to pick an opponent, the competition began with him versus his chosen opponent.His opponent was a disciple from the Ancient Clan.Outside the arena, Quintina looked at Yoan with a bright smile and said, “Sir Yoan, your disciple has a bad eye for opponents. The person he picked isn’t just some regular guy. He’s the eldest grandson of one of our eldersand had been personally tutored by the elder since he was a child. Although he’s young, he isn’t weak. He is already at the Immortal Ascension’s Fourth Stair.”Yoan smiled faintly and said, “Just sit back and wait to be surprised, then. I’m confident in James.”At that moment, the Ancient Clan disciple drew his sword. He pointed his long sword at James, and Sword Energy rippled through the air. He looked at James cal
