The atmosphere was tense on Broken Sword Mountain in the central region of the Ninth Continent.
The sect-wide defensive formation had been activated. A translucent light barrier spread out in the sky and protected the entire sect.
A mass of figures was gathered in front of the main hall. All the elders were there, dressed in black and carrying long swords on their backs. Their sword qi was imposing.
Broken Sword Mountain was considered one of the main factions of the Ninth Continent. It had more than a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators, including many latter period and peak period ones.
Those figures were usually grand elders from the previous two generations, older than Gu Jianzi.
In the middle of the crowd was a young man seemingly in his twenties. However, his qi aura showed that he was in the State of the Nascent Soul.
That person was Gu Jianzi.
