Chapter 9: The Heavenly Sword Mountain Range

  One night's time passed, not only did he refine the lower-grade magic sword 'Autumn Water', but also gained a slight increase in his internal cultivation, which was no small gain for Xia Qi!

  At this time, the sky outside the window had gradually brightened up. Xia Qi casually urged his Autumn Water Sword a couple of times, and the cold light flashed, extremely sharp, and he was very satisfied with this sword in his heart.

  Although he said that today, following Jian Wu Xie to the treasure's hiding place, if they were to escape and get caught, facing Jian Wu Xie's anger would be futile whether or not he had a sharp sword in hand. However, with the sharp sword in hand, Xia Qi felt as though his heart was more at ease.

  Seize the last moment, Xia Qi sat down with his legs crossed, circulated his heart method, and began to regulate his breath, wanting to keep himself in top condition before departure.

  …………

  "Xia Qi, come out and see me."

  A flat and calm voice entered his ears, Xia Qi suddenly woke up, stood up, took a deep breath, and slowly walked out of the room.

  As I walked out of the room, I saw that in the courtyard, eight figures had appeared out of nowhere! Among them, Jian Wuxie stood in the middle, while the other seven cultivators stood alongside him.

  Saw a row of eight people, each with an extraordinary air, probably all masters comparable to Jian Wuxie. They should be the elders of San Xiao Sword Sect, participating in this treasure hunt action.

  Thinking that he would lead Jian Wuxie and the group to the fake treasure location later, he had to escape from the hands of this terrifying old undead. Xia Qi's heart was bitter beyond compare, but on the surface, there wasn't a hint of it showing, with a joyful expression, he ran over quickly and immediately paid his respects to Jian Wuxie.

  "Alright, no need for formalities! These seven are the elders of our sect. This time, you can go and retrieve the treasure with them. I suppose after a day's rest, you've already recalled where the treasure is hidden?" Xian Wu Xie smiled slightly, pointing to the seven elders standing in a row, but didn't introduce them, instead getting straight to the point, his eyes flashing with eagerness.

  He was one of the seven elders of the Three Xiao Sword Sect and also had an unmistakable look of greed and surprise in his eyes!

  Seven elders, one of whom was an old man with white hair and a green robe, had a kind face and truly had a hint of immortal elegance. The other three middle-aged men were cold-faced, and the eyes they looked at Xia Qi with were also icy. The remaining three were three female cultivators.

  In the Xianxia world, the number of female cultivators is relatively small. Among the seven elders, three are female cultivators, which surprises Xia Qi somewhat. Taking a closer look, he sees that one of them has a hunched back, leaning on a cane, with an ancient face. If she weren't standing next to Swordless Evil, no one would have thought that this was actually an elder of the Sanxiang Sword Sect!

  And the other two women were just the opposite, with bright eyes and white teeth, fiery figures, and bold clothing. One wore a silver armor that only covered her sensitive areas, revealing large patches of fair skin, extremely seductive! Another wore a pink semi-transparent long dress, tender skin faintly visible, beautiful figure fully exposed, making Xia Qi dare not look more!

  "Thank you, Master, for your concern. I didn't sleep all night, thinking deeply, and I've remembered where the treasure is hidden. However, I need Master to take me to the place where the treasure is hidden, only then can we confirm." Xia Qi replied with his head lowered.

  "Ah, you've worked hard! This is your token as my disciple. Take it first and from now on, within the sect, with this token, no one will dare to make things difficult for you! Now come and lead the way to the treasure's location!" Xian Wu handed over a heavy black token, Xia Qi hastily took it and then headed down the mountain.

  Inside the San Xiao Sword Sect, unless it's an urgent matter, no one is allowed to fly in mid-air, so at this time, although the cultivation of the group was high, they could only walk down the mountain step by step.

  Down from the mountain peak, out of the mountain gate, Jian Wu Xie and the seven elders rose directly into the air, making Xia Qi a true envy.

  "Xia Qi, come and show us the way!"

  With a low shout, Xia Qi's entire body was already airborne, but it was Swordless Ye who had grabbed him with one hand and pulled him up. Then, he directly fell onto the giant sword that suddenly appeared under Swordless Ye's feet!

  Cultivators in the Qi Refining stage cannot fly, those in the Foundation Building stage can only fly with the aid of magical artifacts, and it is only when they reach the Golden Core stage or above that they can fly freely without relying on any magical artifacts.

  Obviously, the Xian Wuxie under his feet emitted a purple glow, like a sharp sword burning with purple flames, was to facilitate Xia Qifang's travel, otherwise, Xian Wuxie's cultivation would have reached the Yuan Ying period long ago, how could he still need to rely on a magic treasure to fly?

  A flash of light, like lightning, in an instant, the seven elders and Swordless Summer had already rushed out of this mountain range with a loud noise, and in the blink of an eye, they had disappeared without a trace!

  The rolling green hills, rising and falling in succession, looking down from above, but will find that the undulating green hills are connected to form a mountain range, like a giant sword lying horizontally, like a heavenly sword!

  In fact, this mountain range is called 'Tianjian Mountain Range'!

  The entire Tianjian Mountain Range is the territory of San Xiao Sword Sect, and Qin State doesn't have any other loose cultivators or sects that dare to venture deep into it, fearing to provoke San Xiao Sword Sect!

  Like San Xiao Jian Zong, Qin Zhou and the two sects that rival it, Qing Dan Men and Huo Mo Gong, each occupy a massive mountain range as their own territory, forbidding outsiders from entering!

  The San Chao mountain range, almost the most spiritual place in Qin Zhou, with countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and also numerous spirit stone mines, are the main reasons why the three major sects can dominate the Qin Zhou Xianxia world!

  "Xia Qi, where is the treasure buried? Where exactly is it?" In the blink of an eye, the group had almost exited the Tianjian Mountains, and a vast plain appeared before their eyes, stretching as far as the horizon. Jian Wuxie's voice echoed in Xia Qi's mind.

  "I report to the master, because the treasure's burial place does not have a treasure map, I am unable to determine where it is for the time being. However, one thing is certain, the location of the treasure is an extremely hot place, and there is a formidable formation protecting the treasure." Xia Qi tried his best to calm down and spoke in a flat tone.

  This is not Xia Qi's nonsense, but the fact that he can't determine where it is in a short period of time. After all, the Tian Dao Zong treasure they are looking for now is not the real one, and it was buried a million years ago. A million years have passed, and the world has changed greatly. Wanting to identify it would take some time, even if Xia Qi had special methods.

  "A place with extremely hot weather?"

  Upon hearing Xia Qi's words, Jian Wu Xie and the seven elders furrowed their brows slightly, seemingly pondering where such a place could be in Qin State.

  "Could it be? The treasure's hiding place is actually there?!"
