Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 300 Call
"Moon Palace." Lu Yuan stared at the Moon Palace monk.

The memories of her childhood have gradually become blurred, and many of them can no longer be remembered clearly. She only remembers that after her parents passed away, the place where she had lived since childhood was no longer her home.

She followed her master Mo Yang and went to Lishan.

The Sun and Moon Palaces, together with the Western Emperor Island, were formerly the Sun and Moon Palaces many years ago, the dominant force in the West Sea, and later split into three forces.

Now that the demons in the West Sea are causing chaos, it seems that these three forces have once again formed an alliance and come together.

The messengers from the Sun and Moon Palaces came to the Western Emperor Palace.

Liu Zonglin and the Sun and Moon Palace envoys walked forward and came to the main seat in the main hall. People around them stood up one after another. Even the governor of Yazhou stood up and smiled and bowed: "I am the governor of Yazhou, Wenren Mu, and I am honored to meet Palace Master Liu and the two envoys."

"Your Excellency the Governor has traveled thousands of miles across the sea to come here. You must have worked hard." Liu Zonglin responded with a smile. The sword cultivator from Xihuang Island also saluted and said, "My master asked me to say hello to Palace Master Liu on his behalf."

"How dare I." Liu Zonglin smiled and waved his hand, saying, "If your master were to come, I would have to pay my respects as well."

Although he is the Palace Master of the Western Emperor Palace and is very powerful outside, but in terms of real strength, the one on the Western Huang Island is far superior to him. This is the world of cultivators, and everything is determined by strength.

"Palace Master, you are too polite." The middle-aged man replied, but he also understood that what Liu Zonglin said was the truth. His master had been hiding in Xihuang Island, and now his sword skills were extraordinary. If his sword was brought out of Xihuang Island, I am afraid that even the Sword Saint List would be shocked.

"Let's get down to business first."

Liu Zonglin smiled, he took a step forward and looked around at the vast crowd of cultivators. When a great cultivator of the Seventh Realm stood there, an invisible pressure instantly spread, causing the noisy West Emperor Palace to gradually quiet down, and soon there was no sound.

"I want you all to know the purpose of inviting you here today." Liu Zonglin looked around at everyone and said, "Now in the West Sea, the demons have started a war and want to make the West Sea devoid of human presence. This concerns the life and death of billions of humans on the islands in the West Sea. Practitioners at your level may be able to leave and head inland. Then, the billions of lives on the islands will become food for the demons."

"As the master of the West Emperor Palace, I should stand here and raise my arms to shout. How can we, the cultivators of our generation, be afraid of fighting and abandon the lives of billions of humans? My West Emperor Palace will stand at the forefront and fight against the demons."

"We are holding a demon-slaying conference here today to invite cultivators from all over the world to slay demons together."

Liu Zonglin paused for a moment when he said this, and the crowd below became angry.

"What the Palace Master said is very true. How can we cultivators allow ourselves to be trampled by demons? We must wipe out the demons in the West Sea."

"It is my duty to slay demons and monsters."

Many people were righteous and some said, "Whatever the Palace Master needs us to do, just tell us."

"Now that the demons have launched a war against humans, the demons in the sea have all united to obey orders, but the human monks have not been able to completely unite. This is the purpose of my convening the Demon Slaying Conference this time."

Liu Zonglin said: "The Western Emperor Palace and the Sun and Moon Palaces are willing to be the vanguard and call on cultivators from all sides to join together to slay the demons."

"Of course, I also know that cultivation is not easy and demon slaying is dangerous, so I won't force you. If you don't want to, you can leave now. If you are willing to join, you can stay and participate in this demon slaying conference. All the cultivators in the Condensation Core and Golden Body Realms who are willing to stay and participate in the demon slaying conference can choose whether to join my West Emperor Palace and be allowed to enter my West Emperor Palace Sutra Library. In addition, the Sun and Moon Palaces, as well as Xihuang Island, will recruit a group of cultivators. I will even personally recruit disciples, and the same goes for the Sun and Moon Palaces and Xihuang Island. If you are selected, you will have the opportunity to become a disciple of the top cultivators."

"In addition, those who perform outstandingly in this demon-slaying competition will have the opportunity to receive magical weapons, cultivation techniques, and other rewards. Those who make contributions in future wars against demons will also be rewarded according to their merits."

Liu Zonglin's words caused an uproar among the surrounding cultivators. They did not expect that the Western Emperor Palace would be so ruthless this time. All the fifth-level cultivators who participated in the Demon-Slaying Conference could choose whether to enter the Western Emperor Palace to practice. They thought that only a select group would be included.

But after thinking about it, they realized that this was also an expansion of the power of the Western Emperor Palace.

A cultivator who can cultivate to the fifth realm is already considered a powerful person. Entering the Western Emperor Palace does not necessarily mean that he can possess too many resources. After all, it all depends on personal strength.

Under such circumstances, how could the Western Emperor Palace be dissatisfied with the number of monks joining them?

What was really attractive was the opportunity to be Liu Zonglin's personal disciple, and to enter the Sun and Moon Palace and Xihuang Island for cultivation. If they were interested, then it would be completely different. Rather than simply "joining" the Xidi Palace, the significance was completely different, and it could even be said to be a world of difference.

However, it is not easy to catch their eyes.

In addition, for ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators, what attracts them is the opportunity to enter the Scripture Library of the Western Emperor Palace, so that they can come into contact with some powerful cultivation techniques and spells.

As for the rewards of powerful magic weapons and techniques, they are not something that ordinary fifth-level cultivators can hope for. Only those gifted and proud ones have the opportunity to obtain them.

"Before you make a decision, is there anything you want to ask?" Liu Zonglin looked at everyone and asked.

"Palace Master Liu, is this demon-slaying competition going to involve competition? What does it take to perform outstandingly?" someone asked.

"Those who want to show off can take the initiative to stand out and show themselves. I, the Sun and Moon Palace envoys, and many people present here can naturally see whether they are outstanding. As long as they are amazing enough, they will get opportunities and may also get rewards." Liu Zonglin smiled and said, "Of course, this is just a demon-slaying conference after all. If you really want to get a big reward, you need to go to the demon-slaying battlefield and make meritorious deeds."

"I understand." The monk nodded, understanding what Liu Zonglin meant.

"Palace Master Liu, what does this generous reward mean? What does it mean to have made great achievements? How many monsters must be killed?" Luo Qingyan, who was beside Li Fan, asked.

If the number of monsters killed is compared, Li Fan is definitely not worse than any other cultivator. She saw how many monsters Li Fan killed in the war and also on the Jiaomo Island.

So, if we compete on the number of monsters killed, what kind of reward can we get?
Li Fan glanced at Luo Qingyan and naturally understood that she was asking on his behalf.

"That depends on what happens in the war. It could be the number of demons killed or something else. As for the reward, if it is the one who has made the most outstanding contributions, my West Emperor Palace will never be stingy. Not only the West Emperor Palace, I believe the Sun and Moon Palaces are the same." Liu Zonglin said: "If you must ask what it is, then I will explain first. It must be at least a top-level sixth-level magic weapon."

As soon as Liu Zonglin finished speaking, countless cultivators felt a slight ripple in their hearts. They were all cultivators of the fifth realm, and a top-level sixth-level magic weapon was simply a luxury for them.

Not to mention them, even the core disciples of the Western Emperor Palace, or even the disciples taught directly by the Palace Master, could not hold a magic weapon of this level, unless they were the inheritors of the Western Emperor Palace.

"Thank you, Palace Master, for clearing up my doubts." Luo Qingyan said with a smile and turned to look at Li Fan. This guy should be tempted by a top-level sixth-grade magic weapon, right?
Although Li Fan's heart was a little moved, he was not too excited because he had a valuable treasure on him. Of course, if he could get a top-level magic weapon other than a sword, it would be a great help to him.

Moreover, he had originally planned to stay and kill the monster.

For him, slaying demons is also a means to improve his strength.

The sword cultivator from the mountain was supposed to slay demons and monsters, and this was also an opportunity.

"Now that I have said this, it is up to you all to decide whether to stay or go." Liu Zonglin waved his hand and said, "Those who do not want to participate can leave now, but if you decide to participate, you must obey my orders. I will give you one stick of incense to consider."

After saying that, he sat down. The messengers from the Sun and Moon Palaces sat beside him and seemed to be talking in low voices.

The crowd was noisy and some people had already started to leave. Although the conditions promised by Liu Zonglin were very tempting, there were still some people who did not want to take part in the battle with the demons. After all, it was too dangerous.

"No one can remain intact when the nest is overturned. Even if we leave, we may still fall into the hands of monsters. People like us who practice cultivation should gather our strength and kill monsters together." Someone in the crowd shouted, and it was not known whether it was someone arranged by the Western Emperor Palace.

Although some people still left, after everyone's discussion, most people chose to stay. Of course, it was not necessarily because of justice, everyone had their own ideas.

As time went on, fewer and fewer people left.

Li Fan looked at the crowd with some surprise. Most of the cultivators chose to stay.

The incense stick time was up soon. Liu Zonglin glanced at the crowd and said with a smile, "You are all righteous men who can fight alongside the West Emperor Palace to slay demons. Let's begin the demon slaying competition."
