The Immortal Taoist Chapter 18

Chapter 18 - Tenth Rank Power, Sky-splitting Sword Sect

"We've finally arrived!"

A month later, Ling Dao finally made it to the vicinity of Sky-splitting Sword Sect. He hurriedly took out Jiang Zhong's letter from the Universe Ring and placed it in his bosom. He naturally could not let anyone else know about the Universe Ring.

He had already asked around, the Sky-splitting Sword Sect was only a tenth ranked power. For example, the Great Luo Dynasty s were all eighth-grade forces, and were two ranks higher than the Sky-splitting Sword Sect s. In front of an eighth-grade power, a fifth-grade power was simply too weak to withstand a single blow.

"Sky-splitting Sword Sect!"

On the giant stone tablet, the words Sky-splitting Sword Sect were engraved on it, making it look very grand. Although the Sky-splitting Sword Sect could not compare to the Celestial Sect, it was still a tenth ranked power. Under the heavens, there were many powers that were not ranked, and in Anshan County, it could be considered a rather strong power.

"Who is it, have you come to my Sky-splitting Sword Sect to visit?"

Four disciples of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect s walked over from afar. They looked to be around twenty years old, and their bodies emitted the aura of true qi realm Warriors. Only by stepping into the true qi realm could one be considered to have truly started cultivating.

Physical Realm were only the basics. Even if one did not know how to cultivate, they would still cultivate their body. Otherwise, how would they fight? However, without a cultivation technique, one would be stuck in body tempering for the rest of their life. They wouldn't even be able to temper their bones, let alone the Blood Solidification Realm.

"There is no name scroll, but I have a letter that I want to pa.s.s to Jiang Ren, your Sky-splitting Sword Sect. This letter was written by his brother, and I hope that everyone can help me pa.s.s it on! "

Small powers had their own benefits. The disciples of the Celestial Sect s all looked up with their nose to the sky, looking like they were superior to others. The four Sky Cracking Sword Sect Disciple s in front of them were much better off, and after hearing Ling Dao's words, they nodded their heads as well.

If you were to report it to the other elders, it would indeed be very troublesome, but for Jiang Ren, it is a very simple matter.

The four disciples of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect were all staring at Ling Dao, with no intention of leaving. Just by looking at their expressions, Ling Dao understood their thoughts. After all, it was impossible to not give benefits to others when they were asked to do things.

"Just a little bit of goodwill, I'll have to trouble you to inform me!"

Ling Dao tactfully gave one tael of gold to each of the four disciples. The eyes of the four disciples lit up, they weighed the gold in their hands and beamed, their att.i.tude towards Ling Dao was also much better.

"Little brother, come, follow us, we will bring you directly to see Clan Elder Jiang Ren!"

Since each of them got a tael of gold, they were naturally very happy. If Ling Dao did not give any rewards, they would make things difficult for Ling Dao and might even chase him away. Don't think that a tael of gold is too little. A tael of gold would be worth more than ten thousand taels of gold right now.

Although the Sky-splitting Sword Sect was only a tenth ranked power, even though it was small, it had everything. The four disciples of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect led Ling Dao for half a day before they finally stopped outside a courtyard.

"This is Elder Jiang Ren's courtyard. Wait a moment!"

One of the Sky Cracking Sword Sect Disciple s walked towards the inner area. Since he had accepted Ling Dao's gold, he naturally had to inform Ling Dao about it. If it was any other elder, it would not be so easy. Unfortunately, Jiang Ren was different.

"Elder Jiang Ren, there is someone looking for you outside. It's said that your brother's letter is for you!"

The moment the young disciple opened his mouth, the courtyard echoed with the sound of the door opening. A man around the age of fifty walked out from the room. Its thick eyebrows and big eyes were somewhat similar to Jiang Zhong.

"Where? "Where is he?"

Jiang Ren only had one brother, and that was Jiang Zhong, but they had not met each other for many years. Now that Jiang Zhong sent him a letter, he was naturally a little excited. He quickly walked out of the courtyard and quickly saw Ling Dao. The other three disciples were wearing the attire of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, so Jiang Ren naturally did not notice them.

"Is that you? What about my brother's letter? "

Seeing Jiang Ren, Ling Dao immediately thought of Jiang Zhong, and a sense of familiarity arose out of nowhere. Jiang Ren didn't look like a messenger. Could it be that something had happened to Jiang Zhong?

"Senior, this is the letter Grandpa Jiang wanted me to pa.s.s to you!"

Ling Dao took out the letter that Jiang Zhong had written, but Jiang Ren immediately s.n.a.t.c.hed it away. Jiang Ren did not care about the others and directly opened the letter. He naturally recognized Jiang Zhong's handwriting. The contents of the letter, however, made Jiang Ren's expression darken.

"My big brother left?"

After a long while, Jiang Ren slowly raised his head, he did not expect it to be Jiang Zhong's ultimate move. Jiang Zhong clearly wrote that when Jiang Ren saw this letter, he was no longer in the world. Jiang Ren was naturally saddened by the death of his only brother.

"Mm …"

Ling Dao nodded, a look of sadness flashing past his eyes. Jiang Ren regarded Jiang Zhong as a close relative, and Ling Dao was the same as well. Even before his death, Jiang Zhong had only considered Ling Dao, not himself.

"The four of you can leave now. It's none of your business!"

Jiang Ren waved his hand, and the four disciples of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect left the place. In the arena, only Jiang Ren and Ling Dao were left. Jiang Ren had just received the grievous news of Jiang Zhong and was unable to adapt for a moment as he stood at the entrance of the courtyard. Ling Dao also did not say anything. He could naturally understand Jiang Ren's feelings.

"Follow me in!"

After who knows how long, Jiang Ren finally spoke again, and then turned and entered the courtyard. Ling Dao nodded and followed behind Jiang Ren. Jiang Ren sat on the stone bench and looked at Ling Dao.

In Jiang Zhong's letter, the person who gave the most instructions was Ling Dao. Regarding his own life and death, he did not mention much about it, he only skimmed through it. Jiang Zhong made him ensure that he took good care of Ling Dao, and even more so, made him want to become a disciple in the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, to learn all his abilities.

From the letter, Jiang Ren could tell how much Jiang Zhong cared about Ling Dao. In Jiang Zhong's heart, Ling Dao was more important than him. Jiang Zhong had also explained his background, it was the Crown Prince Xiao Yao, but unfortunately, the King Carefree Palace had already been annihilated.

"Crown Prince Xiao Yao, a small sect in our Sky-splitting Sword Sect cannot accept a great Buddha like you!"

Jiang Ren slowly said. He frowned, but relaxed after that. Jiang Ren was not Jiang Zhong after all. If Jiang Ren did not want him to stay in the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, then he would leave. Since there were no people left here, there was naturally a place for them to stay.

"I came to Sky-splitting Sword Sect just to give you this letter. Since your Sky-splitting Sword Sect does not wish to accept me as his disciple, then I will leave now.

Ling Dao did not look at Jiang Zhong anymore, and turned to leave. In any case, he had not entered the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, so he had no sense of belonging for the Sky-splitting Sword Sect either. Being able to become a disciple of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect was a good thing, being able to not be a part of it was also something that was of no concern to him.

"Wait, I'm not done yet!"
