Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

The next day.

Li Guanqi had already gotten up and packed by Mao Shi (5-7 AM).

He practiced the boxing stance in the backyard dozens of times, his whole body surging with energy and covered in sweat.

Looking at the sky, he put down the sword box behind him and started boiling water to take a bath.

As for why this sword box became a 'sword coffin' in his grandfather's mouth, he didn't know.

At the same time.

The main hall of Tianlei Peak was bustling with activity, almost all the disciples remaining in the peak had come.

Li Guanqi was the only new disciple Tianlei Peak had taken in the past three years.

Not to mention a legendary genius with a Saint-grade spiritual root!

In a separate courtyard on the back mountain of Tianlei Peak.

A little girl wearing a flowered jacket had just struggled to hang up all the clothes.

She squatted at the door, took out a bun from her arms and began to munch on it.

With one bite, half of the bun went into her mouth, the bun skin was thin and the filling was large and fragrant.

After just one bite, the little girl's mouth was covered in oil.

"Grandpa Li, aren't you going to the new disciple's entry ceremony today?"

A drunken voice came from the room.

"No."

The little girl nodded, as if this answer was not unexpected.

She muttered to herself: "Why did a Saint-grade spiritual root choose the lightning element..."

"And he's blind."

A snoring sound slowly came from inside, the little girl got up and ran towards the main hall in a flurry.

Her two hands were raised, like a running goose spreading its wings.

"Guanqi! He's over here."

Gu Ran's voice came, and Li Guanqi, carrying the sword box on his back, quickly walked towards the main hall.

Many people were already standing on a square that was a hundred zhang in size.

Not only all the disciples of Tianlei Peak, but even the Sect Master Lu Kangnian himself had come, as well as the elders of each peak.

They all wanted to see which master this talented young man would choose to follow.

However, only Xu Zhengjie, the Second Elder of Tianlei Peak, was present.

Tianlei Peak has one Peak Master and two Elders.

There are a total of thirty-seven disciples.

Peak Master Lei Yingze, a Golden Core cultivator at the Great Perfection stage, was in seclusion to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

The Great Elder had never shown his face, and only the Second Elder Xu Zhengjie had been handling all the affairs in the peak.

Lu Kangnian frowned when he saw that Li Guanqi had already arrived, but there was only Xu Zhengjie in the Elder's seat.

"Hmph, doesn't Li Nanting come on a day like today?"

No one dared to say anything when the Sect Master said such a thing, but others could not say it.

Because the Great Elder of Tianlei Peak, Li Nanting, was a very special figure in the Great Xia Sword Sect.

No Elder of any peak dared to be flippant in front of Li Nanting.

Because he was once the Si Xing Zhang Lu (Judicial Chief) of the Great Xia Sword Sect!

Buzz!

A figure in a white robe suddenly appeared beside Lu Kangnian.

The newcomer was as straight as a sword, and although he was an old man, he did not appear old at all.

His facial features were distinct, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle!

Looking at the figure that appeared, Lu Kangnian laughed softly: "I thought you wouldn't come."

The old man laughed softly: "Tianlei Peak hasn't been this lively in three years, so I have to come and see it."

Lu Kangnian nodded and suddenly said, "Where's Little Bun?"

"There."

Li Nanting pointed to the roof of the main hall, where a little girl in a flowered jacket was sticking her head out while gnawing on a carrot.

Lu Kangnian waved his hand, and the little girl flew up and was held in his arms.

Lu Kangnian, with stubble on his face, kept rubbing the little girl's delicate face.

Causing her to frown and directly stuff the carrot in her hand into Lu Kangnian's mouth.

Lu Kangnian laughed and let her ride on his neck.

"Now that everyone is here, the entry ceremony for disciple Li Guanqi officially begins!"

"Beat the drums! Offer incense! Invite the ancestral statues!"

Dong! Dong dong!

Hundreds of disciples beat the rhythmic war drums with all their might.

A bronze cauldron that was a zhang in size landed in the center with a bang.

Stone statues, each more than ten zhang high, fell with a bang!

There were more than thirty statues, and each statue was vividly depicted.

These are the successive Sect Masters of the Great Xia Sword Sect.

Lu Kangnian's voice resounded throughout the entire sect.

"The Great Xia Sword Sect has been established for thirteen thousand two hundred and ninety-eight years!"

"The Sect Master has been passed down for thirty-eight generations."

"One person has ascended to the Immortal Realm in the Tribulation Transcending stage, two in the Great Ascension stage, three in the Integration stage, five in the Void Refinement stage, and fifteen in the God Transformation stage!"

"Today you join the sect, for the rest of your life you will be a disciple of the Great Xia Sword Sect!"

"From now on, you will embark on the path of cultivation, as long as you act righteously and do things properly..."

"The sect will do everything possible to protect all its disciples!"

"The Great Xia Sword Sect's motto!"

"The sword in your hand does not point at the weak, and the sword in your heart does not fear the strong!"

"Right the wrongs of the world, and kill those who deserve to be killed!"

"If one day, you encounter a strong enemy because of the sect's motto, the Great Xia Sword Sect will definitely use the power of the entire sect to protect you!"

"Li Guanqi, are you willing to join the Great Xia Sword Sect! And become a member of Tianlei Peak!"

Li Guanqi stood in place, slowly took off the blindfold covering his eyes.

His pure white eyes looked directly into Lu Kangnian's eyes, raised the landscape incense in his hand, and said in a deep voice.

"Disciple Li Guanqi, is willing to join the Great Xia Sword Sect and become a member of Tianlei Peak!!"

Dong dong dong dong dong!!

The war drums rumbled, resounding throughout the entire Tianlei Peak.

Lu Kangnian's expression was serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Offer incense! The entry ceremony is complete!!"

The subsequent ceremony was very simple. At this time, Lu Kangnian solemnly walked up to Li Guanqi and handed him a white jade slip.

The jade slip was only the size of a palm, with the sect emblem of the Great Xia Sword Sect engraved on the front, and the words 'Great Xia Sword Sect' written on it.

On the back was engraved his name and the appearance of Tianlei Peak.

"This is your identity jade slip, remember not to lose it!"

"As for what this jade slip does, you can study it slowly later."

Speaking of this, Lu Kangnian suddenly turned his head to look at the old man who didn't look easy to get along with, and said softly.

"Now..."

"Li Nanting, do you want to take him as your disciple?"

Second Elder Xu Zhengjie looked at Lu Kangnian resentfully. The Sect Master didn't even ask him, nor did he ask the Peak Master of Tianlei Peak.

Li Guanqi stood in place and didn't say anything. After all, if the Sect Master arranged a suitable person to be his master, he had no objections.

"Why does it have to be me? Old Xu can do it too."

Lu Kangnian shook his head and said softly: "The Great Xia Sword Sect has only produced two good seedlings in so many years, since he chose the lightning spiritual root."

"Then, in the entire Tianlei Peak, you are the most suitable candidate!"

"Whether it is swordsmanship, cultivation techniques, the use of lightning elemental power, or even the attainments in spirit spells."

"Among the elders of the eight peaks, you are the only one who is proficient in everything. I am not at ease if Li Guanqi joins other masters."

Li Nanting was silent. He had been used to being alone and not caring about worldly affairs for so many years.

But facing a disciple with a Saint-grade spiritual root, he was really tempted!

His hope of entering the Nascent Soul stage again in this life was as slim as finding a needle in a haystack. He always wanted to find someone to pass on what he had learned.

The previous Wu Bing was a metal spiritual root, which was not suitable for him.

Li Nanting came to Li Guanqi, slowly squatted down and softly asked: "Boy, if I become your master, are you... willing?"

The old man's voice was trembling, with a hint of unease.

But Li Guanqi felt the old man's sincerity and caution.

The old man's eyes were filled with a kind of hope and expectation.

This kind of look shocked Li Guanqi's heart, and then he lifted his hem and slowly knelt down.

He said in a deep voice: "Disciple Li Guanqi, is willing to take you as my master!!"

In this scene, a little bit of water mist appeared in the old man's eyes in an instant, and his eye sockets were red.

The old man, with his head up, said in a trembling voice: "Good... good!!"

The old man helped the young man up with both hands, faced the surroundings and said in a deep voice: "I, Li Nanting, today accept Li Guanqi as my closed-door disciple!"

"In the future, I hope the elders of the eight peaks will take care of him!"
