"Elder Song must have become even more skilled." The grey-robed elder smiled, then said, "Master Yun, the sect leader is already waiting at the plaza. Please come with me, I'll lead the way for you all."
"Please…" Yun XiaoTian said lightly.
Elder Shi's true qi flashed around him, causing only a slight ripple in the space around him, and in an instant, his figure arrived on the back of the massive flying beast.
"Let's go." Yun XiaoTian said lightly, his body made no movement, but the space ripples around him shook instantly, and then he seemingly leapt onto the flying beast out of thin air.
"The strength of Sect Master Yun is truly astonishing." Seeing Yun XiaoTian displaying this skill, Elder Shi of the Tianjian Sect showed a hint of surprise on his face, clearly aware of the difficulty.
"Elder Shi flatters me." Yun XiaoTian said with a light laugh.
"Whoosh whoosh…"
The members of Yunyang Sect also employed their methods, lightly landing on the flying beast. Inside the Tianjian Sect, it was natural to put on a good show and not lose face for the Yunyang Sect.
"Let's go," Elder Shi said lightly, then commanded the flying beast to move forward.
The flying beast took off, not flying too high. After a moment, it crossed a cluster of buildings and reached the outer city. A gust of wind passed, and the dense crowd below watched the people on the back of the flying beast with awe and curiosity. Anyone who could ride a flying beast around Tianjian City was known to have a high status.
In Tianjian City, there is a rule that no flying mounts are allowed to fly after entering the city.
Watching the gazes of the people below, Li Lin smiled lightly. Standing on top of the pyramid, naturally, there would be people looking up to you. In the future, he would surely be able to do the same.
As the flying beast flew low, the bustling sounds from the dense crowd below were clearly audible.
At this moment, Li Lin's heart also suddenly surged with excitement. No matter how strong one's resolve, this was after all the grand meeting of the three sects and four gates, almost the biggest event in the entire continent. Li Lin was still young, and such a grand event would naturally bring out some exuberance and rebelliousness. In his previous life, he did not have this opportunity, but now, he had the chance to show his exuberance and rebelliousness, and he would strive with all his might.
"Gentlemen, this time the grand meeting of the three sects and four gates will be held at the plaza of Tianjian City. This plaza has been expanded by our Tianjian Sect again, just to provide enough space for the grand meeting. The inner plaza is 20,000 meters in size, capable of accommodating sixty martial generals and warriors to compete. Apart from the inner plaza where the competing disciples will compete, we have transformed the outer plaza into an arc shape, which can accommodate one million spectators," Elder Shi said to everyone on the flying beast.
"Elder Shi, it seems that your Tianjian Sect has put in a lot of effort this time," Elder Song said.
"It is our duty. The grand meeting of the three sects and four gates is a major event for our three sects and four gates," Elder Shi said.
"You will also earn a lot," Li Lin thought to himself. Holding the grand meeting of the three sects and four gates in Tianjian City would bring in business opportunities far exceeding the investment, and the contributions brought in would be no small sum.
"Look, we have arrived."
At that moment, Elder Shi pointed to the space ahead.
Everyone looked at each other and could see a huge plaza in the distance amidst the endless buildings. The plaza, which was remarkably eye-catching in the midst of the buildings, was circular in shape and, at a glance, appeared to cover an area of 20,000 meters.
At this moment, the surroundings of the plaza were crowded with dense figures, resembling ants, and waves of noise were being carried over by the wind.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
"Let's go down. The main entrance is now blocked, so we'll enter through a back passage," Elder Shi commanded, directing the flying beast to enter through the rear.
When the flying beast landed on a large platform in the plaza, there were several other fourth-tier flying beasts standing nearby.
As everyone alighted from the flying beast, Li Lin saw many disciples of the Tianjian Sect around, each wearing armor and carrying long swords.
Under Elder Shi's lead, the members of Yunyang Sect entered the plaza through the back door without any hindrance, and when they emerged from the plaza, what they saw completely surprised Li Lin.
In Li Lin's memory, the exit they just came out of was like the plaza where the World Cup night of football was held, with a massive plaza in front that was flat and smooth, outrageously large. The stone slabs on the ground were made of an extremely hard rock, which probably even a martial soul practitioner would find difficult to shatter.
At this moment, the surrounding area was already filled with dense figures, making the plaza look like a football stadium, extending from low to high, far into the distance. At this time, Li Lin's preliminary estimate was that the number of people surrounding the plaza was upwards of a million. Just now, Elder Shi had said that the surrounding area of the plaza could accommodate a million spectators.
In the first row, Li Lin saw many chairs, presumably for some special guests and people from various powers.
Looking at the plaza, Li Lin surveyed the middle of the plaza, which was divided into twenty-eight squares, marked with numbers from one to twenty-eight, probably specially arranged for the upcoming competitions.
Around the plaza, Li Lin saw again teams of Tianjian Sect disciples wearing armor, numbering perhaps two to three thousand, each with a formidable aura, maintaining order within the plaza.
With so many people, chaos was inevitable. It was clear that the Tianjian Sect was not taking any chances today. If anything happened during the conference, it would greatly affect the sect's reputation.
"Sect Master Yun, please follow me. The people from the other sects have probably already arrived, and the master of our Tianjian Sect has been waiting for a while," Elder Shi said to Yun XiaoTian.
"Okay." Yun XiaoTian responded lightly. Then, under Elder Shi's lead, everyone walked up a set of stairs at the edge of the passageway. The staircase was not short, with about a hundred steps, twenty to thirty meters high.
Then, what appeared in front of everyone was a plaza 300 meters in size, supported below by four huge stone pillars. At this moment, there were already three to four hundred chairs, with two to three hundred people already seated. Seeing everyone come up, all eyes were immediately upon them.
"Ha ha, Sect Master Yun's grand arrival, I've been busy to the point of dizziness these past few days and have failed to welcome you from afar. Please don't take offense," a hearty voice came, and as the words fell, a blue figure had already reached the members of Yunyang Sect.
"What a strong aura." Li Lin felt an invisible pressure suddenly appear, which flashed by and then completely converged, as if someone was probing their strength.
Looking at the person who came, it was a man with long blue hair tied at the back of his head, high forehead, large eyes, eyebrows like knives, eyes like stars, wearing a blue robe, exuding an extraordinary aura, around forty years old. On his back, there was also a golden broadsword.
"Master Gu is too polite. We've been busy naturally, but today we have met," Yun XiaoTian said with a slight smile.
"Master Gu, Gu Jianfeng." Li Lin immediately guessed the identity of the person. Without surprise, this person should be one of the top ten powerhouses, the master of the Tianjian Sect, Gu Jianfeng.
"Sect Master Yun, please. The other sect masters and heads are almost all here," Gu Jianfeng gestured with his hand, and the people in front had already stood up.
"Sect Master Yun, you are late," a man in a purple robe stepped forward, scanning the people behind Yun XiaoTian and said.
"Sect Master Yun, long time no see. It seems the disciples Yunyang Sect brought this time are not weak."
"Elder Yang's strength has greatly improved, congratulations."
"I didn't expect Elder Yu to come as well, that's rare."
...
A series of courteous greetings came, and the group of elders and Yun XiaoTian were surrounded by many people, exchanging polite greetings as if everyone was already acquainted.
Li Lin's gaze swept over the strong individuals, and from their conversations, it was not difficult for Li Lin to guess their identities. Besides the Tianjian Sect's master Gu Jianfeng, there was also the master of the Huanhun Sect, Ren Changqing, wearing a purple robe, with black short hair, slim and tall, with deep eyes, and an aura completely retracted, giving off an absolute oppression.
The master of the Guiyuan Sect, Wei Bangyan, was also among them, with brown short hair, eyebrows somewhat graying, and a somewhat obese figure. Under a white and green robe, his belly seemed quite bulging, but his aura was not inferior to Yun XiaoTian's, with a gaze that was intimidating.
The master of Xuan Shan Sect, Zhu Hongyuan, wearing a black robe, around forty years old, with a few strands of white hair among his black short hair, slender figure, and a pressing aura.
When Li Lin saw the master of the Diling Sect, he was somewhat surprised. The master of the Diling Sect was a beautiful woman looking younger than forty, with curved eyebrows, indeed a very beautiful woman, about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, perhaps well-maintained, not showing her real age. But she looked flirtatious and incomparably gorgeous. Li Lin knew that the master of the Diling Sect was called Ouyang XuanYing, and from her aura, she was not inferior to the other sect masters.
