Chapter 527: The Five Elements Sect, enthusiastic and hospitable

The Five Elements Sect, one of the five major immortal sects, is located in the Five Elements Spiritual Vein of Cloud State. The Five Elements Spiritual Vein naturally aligns with the five elements, making it the best place in Cloud State.

Under the leadership of Sect Master Qiu Jin'an, the Five Elements Sect is flourishing with talent. The sect is strict and diligent internally, striving for excellence, while being warm and hospitable externally, treating people kindly.

Even when disciples from the Seek Tao Sect come to study, the Five Elements Sect sets aside past grievances. Elders lead the welcoming party, holding artifacts, fearing that the Seek Tao Sect disciples might encounter any mishaps.

"We're really popular, look at all these people coming out to greet us," Man Gu said cheerfully, looking at the crowd in front of the Five Elements Sect's mountain gate.

Lu Yang's eye twitched. From what he learned from the Immortal Fairy, those holding artifacts were all at the Body Fusion stage, definitely elders of the Five Elements Sect.

Did they really need to hold artifacts to welcome them?

The flying boat docked, and Meng Jingzhou led the team off the boat. Qiu Jin'an warmly came forward to greet them, followed by five fierce-looking elders. One elder held a banner in his left hand and a weapon in his right, seemingly unsure of what to do.

"Welcome to our Five Elements Sect for a visit and study. Didn't any elders come with you?"

Qiu Jin'an counted, only five people, and none of the Nine Sons of Seek Tao Sect were present.

Unwilling to give up, he used his divine sense to search the surroundings, checking if anyone was hiding their presence.

"No, the elders are all busy and couldn't come," Meng Jingzhou explained honestly.

Qiu Jin'an shook his head in regret. What a pity, no one fell into their trap.

The five elders activated their artifacts, the tips glowing, startling Meng Jingzhou. Fortunately, the artifacts weren't aimed at them but at the sky.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

Five attacks exploded in the air, resembling beautiful fireworks blooming under the night sky.

Accompanied by the sound of the attacks, the banner unfurled—Welcome Seek Tao Sect Disciples to Our Sect for Study.

The Five Elements Sect was meticulous, preparing two plans. If the Nine Sons of Seek Tao Sect came, they would greet them with artifacts, then step on them while unfurling the banner and setting off fireworks. If Yun Zhi came, they would directly switch to fireworks and the banner.

Although Yun Zhi didn't come, and only a few juniors arrived, they could still make do with the banner and a welcome.

"Disperse, disperse, Bu Yu Taoist didn't come."

"I heard Bu Yu Taoist is in Wild State, should we go check?"

"Forget it, it's probably another false lead. When have we ever caught him after getting his whereabouts?"

"That slippery bastard runs faster than a rabbit!"

"Man and Sword as One, One Sword into Ten Thousand Swords, who can find his true body after he uses those moves? By the time you find him, he's already gone."

"Don't say that, if I encounter him, I can find him."

"How?"

"See these eyes? I smoked them in a furnace for forty-nine days. Now they're as good as the demon-revealing mirror of White Horse Temple!"

"That effective? Is it easy to learn? I want to try."

After unfurling the banner and setting off the fireworks, the elders dispersed, chatting among themselves.

Seeing that their target didn't come, Qiu Jin'an coughed twice and signaled Bai Ming to entertain the five guests.

The sect master and elders left, but the disciples of the Five Elements Sect stayed.

"Which one is Lu Yang? Point him out."

"That one, the clean-looking one."

"Don't judge by appearances. I heard he fought above his level during the Foundation Establishment stage, defeating Golden Elixir, Elemental Infant, and Transformation stage cultivators. Now that he's at the Golden Elixir stage, can he defeat Void Refinement stage cultivators?"

"No need for him to fight Void Refinement stage. Pick a weakened Void Refinement stage, and even I can beat them."

"True."

"Who's the founder of Dreamlike Mirage?"

"Are you blind? There's only one female cultivator, and you still ask?"

"Such talent, why didn't I think of such a profitable idea?"

"What good idea can you come up with? You ate Seek Tao Sect's barbecue, wanted to open a shop outside, and found out the competition in barbecue shops is too fierce?"

"Is that really the one from the ancient barbarians? I thought they were extinct."

"Rumor has it he's a rare bloodline throwback, tracing back to his roots."

The disciples of the Five Elements Sect didn't interact much with the Seek Tao Sect disciples and were very curious about Lu Yang and his group.

After Qiu Jin'an left, Meng Jingzhou saw Bai Ming and asked in confusion, "Didn't you go for exchange studies?"

Bai Ming pouted, "Nowhere to go. Your Seek Tao Sect's Shi Chan went, Yan Tianzhi went to the Floating Temple, the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace doesn't allow male disciples, and I have two junior sisters who went. I often go to the Suppress Hell Sect, so there's no need to go. So, I stayed in the sect."

As Bai Ming walked, he introduced the Five Elements Sect to Lu Yang and the others.

"You probably saw from the flying boat that our Five Elements Sect is built on the Five Elements Spiritual Vein. Based on different specialties, the sect is divided into five branches. The elders who greeted you with the sect master are the Great Elders of the five branches. When they were young, they had some personal grudges with the elders of your Seek Tao Sect and wanted to catch up, but unfortunately, they didn't come."

"What kind of grudges?"

Bai Ming had heard from his master about several conflicts between the Five Elements Sect and the Seek Tao Sect: "There are many, like frequent brawls. When your Seek Tao Sect had more elders, they used swarm tactics to beat our elders. When they had fewer, they reported to the authorities."

"Sometimes they even used beauty traps. Your sect's Fourth Elder wrote a letter to our elder, using a female cultivator's tone, saying she admired our elder for a long time and wanted to meet. The letter said he was shy and didn't want to meet too many people, asking to meet our elder alone. Our elder went, and nine people jumped out from behind a big rock. Can you imagine that scene?"

Lu Yang found the tactic familiar. The Fourth Elder must have learned from experience and mastered this trick.

Li Haoran, fearing that an elder of the Five Elements Sect might overhear their conversation and rekindle old grudges, quickly changed the topic, "Which branch do you belong to?"

"Me? I'm proficient in the Five Elements techniques, so I don't belong to any branch. I'm part of the sect master's branch."

"Only those proficient in all Five Elements techniques can join the sect master's branch." Bai Ming said this with a hint of pride, a smile tugging at his lips. Proficiency in the Five Elements techniques made his talent exceptional even within the Five Elements Sect.

"Does that mean I can join too?" Lu Yang pointed to himself.

His talent in techniques was extraordinary. He knew the six-foot golden body for metal techniques, the Tree-Planting Technique for wood techniques, hadn't learned any water techniques yet, knew the Samadhi True Fire for fire techniques, and Shrink Earth for earth techniques.

Bai Ming turned to look at Lu Yang, his eyes showing a hint of surprise, "Your talent in techniques is indeed impressive, quite suitable for joining my master's branch. Why didn't you come to our Five Elements Sect initially?"

Lu Yang scratched his head awkwardly, "The Seek Tao Sect was closer to home, so I thought I'd try it first. I didn't expect to succeed right away."

Bai Ming: "..."

Such a simple reason.

In the later chapters, there are commissions from the Immortal Fairy, worth a monthly ticket, right?
