Chapter 1: The Ancient Ancestors of the Southern Frontier

  The land of Nánjiāng consists of twenty-six regions, and nine "lands" formed the vast South Barbarian!

  Gu Zong is located in the largest and strongest region of Nanjiang - Xuejiang Region!

  The Xuejiang region is vast and rich, its scope is ten times that of the border region, where the strongest sects and tribes in the south are gathered! It has one-ninth of the strong men of Nanman!

  The entire southern border is divided into seven major tribes and four major sects. The ancient sect dares to be called the first of the southern border's ancient sects, precisely because it is one of the four major sects. Although ranked last, after accumulating over the years, its depth is immeasurable!

  A giant eagle soared over the border region towards the Blood Territory, its wings spread wide enough to cover ten zhang! The massive wings flapped with a sonic boom that shook space, this giant eagle was the Qin surname old man's beast. At this time, the Mo Tian and others were all seated on the giant eagle, some sat on the ground, or stood up, each face revealed a different expression, gazing down at the vast land and endless space below.

  The barbarian Tian sat at one end, his black hair flying in the strong wind, letting the sharp wind blow across his face. He looked down at the rapidly passing mountains and plains below, his distant gaze carrying a hint of confusion!

  Leaving the border region, he returned to the border region in an unknown year and month. The barbarian Tian couldn't put down his ancestral tribe, and the words of the barbarian Gong had been lingering in his mind since he left the tribe.

  "Once you've walked out, there's no need to look back!"

  Having walked out of the tribe, there is no turning back. All that's needed is to move forward bravely. Thinking of Mo Xing's threat, Man Tian's heart sank. When he has the power to protect his tribe, perhaps it will be the day to turn back. At this moment, Man Tian suppressed all his thoughts and gazed firmly into the distance.

  Bai Xian'er had been standing beside Man Tian, looking down with a reluctant expression. Perhaps the first Yuan Li tribe's fall also made her uncomfortable! Among the 14 quotas, Gu Tu was also among them, and in the final quota competition, he still defeated his opponent with one sword, shocking all the young disciples of Gu Zu.

  Yuan Zheng, Zhan Xiong, Ba Yu, and Xiao Shan gazed into the distance, their chests surging with hot blood, a magnificent ambition soaring through their hearts!

  A month later.

  Blood Border Territory! Eastern Ancient Sect!

  "That's the ancient ancestral temple of Southern Xinjiang!" As the calm words of the old man with the surname Qin sounded, Man Tian and others all came back to their senses, their bodies slightly trembling, their eyes quickly looking forward.

  In front, a majestic mountain range stretching for hundreds of miles appeared in everyone's line of sight. The mountain range was like an ancient ferocious beast lying dormant on the land, shaking and trembling! On top of the highest peak at the center of the mountain range, a gigantic hammer over a hundred feet tall stood upright, its handle plunged into the sea of clouds, looking from afar as if it were a pillar supporting the heavens.

  Around the stone hammer, countless buildings stand tall on this vast mountain range, and countless birds and beasts run and fly among the mountains, such a scene, as if it is the fairyland that the Eastern cultivators have been pursuing.

  At a glance, the ancient sect's grandeur left a lasting impact on his heart, a surge of hot blood rushed to his forehead. In this moment, all the worries, pain and pressure he had been carrying disappeared. His eyes, heart and mind were filled with nothing but this magnificent and ancient sect.

  Perhaps one day, the Zu Yuan tribe will also be able to dominate a region and reign supreme like this sect!

  The giant eagle slowly landed at the forefront of the vast mountain range! Luo Lao looked at the vast and majestic scenery, his expression filled with emotion, while Qin Xing's face was filled with a hint of joy. He said: "Pu Yun, settle them down!" Immediately after, he pulled Luo Lao along, eager to say: "Luo Shixiong, let's go!! Go see Master Uncle! It's been many years since you've seen him, and he's been thinking about you a lot!" Without waiting for Luo Lao's response, Qin Xing directly took him away from the place.

  Pu Yun, the man who had a pleasant conversation with Chi Long, looked ahead and swept his gaze over the fourteen people from Man Tian. He said calmly, "Remember, this is Gu Zong! Not Xiao Gu Zong. Perhaps your abilities are top-notch in Xiao Gu Zong, but here in Gu Zong, you're facing the gathering place of all the talents from Nan Jiang. So, you need to restrain yourselves! Don't even think about challenging the disciples of one sect!"

  Pu Yun said with profound meaning and glanced at Tianye with a hint of disdain.

  Noticing Pu Yun's gaze, Man Tian's eyelids drooped slightly as he recalled the conversation between Pu Yun and Chi Long. He suspected that they had a certain relationship, and wondered if killing Chi Long would have made Pu Yun harbor resentment towards him. And now, Pu Yun's words had already made Man Tian feel his hostility.

  "Brother Pu Yun?" Just then, a surprised voice rang out, and three disciples in white robes walked over.

  Pu Yun turned around and looked at the three of them, smiling blandly: "Are you three on duty guarding the sect entrance today?"

  "Ah! Brother Pu Yun, it's been a long time since I've seen you. If you don't come back soon, Wang Feng and Yao Qingfeng will probably ride roughshod over you." A burly disciple with eyes gleaming with fervor looked at Pu Yun and spoke in a low voice, his tone actually containing a hint of fawning!

  "That Na Wangfeng heard a month ago has already entered the third level of the Extreme Realm!" Another disciple said.

  Pu Yun's eyebrows rose slightly, and he nodded slightly: "I know! They are the disciples selected by the small ancient sects! You 'settle' them!" Pu Yun emphasized the two words "settle" heavily, glanced at the three of them, and then walked directly into the vast gate of the ancient sect.

  Man Tian and others exchanged a glance, feeling somewhat displeased in their hearts, but no one said anything.

  "Are you the talented disciples selected by Xiaoguzong?" After Pu Yun left, that tall and sturdy disciple's expression turned cold, staring at Man Tian and others with a chilly gaze, saying in a deep voice. Where was the haughty appearance of before when facing Pu Yun?

  "It's just a branch of the sect, I'm afraid there are only about a hundred or so people in this branch, otherwise how could they choose someone with a second-grade physique?" A disciple sneered and glanced at Gu Tu standing in front, his face full of mockery.

  Gutu's face twitched with a mixture of embarrassment and awkwardness, his smile somewhat gloomy. Meanwhile, Yuan Zheng and the others had ambiguous smiles on their faces. Gutu's final struggle was actually shocking to both the upper and lower levels of Xiaoguzong, but now he became the object of ridicule for these people.

  "You're the genius disciples of the Split Sect, right? You, come and hit me! Let me see the strength of you genius disciples!" Another disciple sneered with a cold smile, pointing his right hand at Man Tian who was standing in the crowd, proudly.

  "Don't look anymore, it's you!" The disciple said loudly at the moment of Bo Tian's confusion.

  Gu Tu, Yuan Zheng, Xiao Shan and others stared at this disciple with a face full of arrogance in shock! A strange smile appeared on their faces without exception.

  The man walked out with a bland expression and looked at the disciple, puzzled: "Brother, are you sure you want me to punch you?"

  "Cut the nonsense! Use your strongest power! Don't disappoint me, Tiancai of the Split Sect!" The disciple glared at Meng Tian, his muscles rippling as he bellowed.

  The barbarian hesitated for a moment and said: "Brother, are you really sure?"

  "I'm sure you're paralyzed, if you don't fight back, I'll knock you out with one punch." The disciple heard the words of Man Tian and not only got very angry.

  "Bang!!" The disciple's words had barely fallen when his body flew into the air like a sandbag, heavily landing ten zhang away!
