On a towering cliff.
Sword light crisscrossed and danced, each move flowing seamlessly into the next, as if born from nature itself.
“Senior Lu!”
Song Yun, holding his flying sword, came to Lu Xuan with a hopeful look on his face.
“Well done, you’ve made considerable progress with Sword Dao these days. It appears that your recent expedition to the Boundless Sea has had a significant impact on your swordsmanship.”
Lu Xuan nodded approvingly.
“I owe much of this progress to your guidance, Senior. You helped me break through various difficulties, and from there my progress came naturally through my own practice and experience.”
Song Yun responded with reverence.
About half a month ago, he ventured into the ocean with his family’s hunting team to verify what he had learned under Lu Xuan’s guidance.
Upon his return, his swordsmanship had visibly improved, much to Lu Xuan’s delight.
“While my guidance has certainly been impactful, the most crucial part of your gains lies in your own comprehension and practice,”
He looked at the young Song Yun, saying gently.

Song Yun nodded, committing Lu Xuan’s words to heart.
“By the way, Senior Lu, there will be a major auction on Aurora Island soon, which only happens once every ten years. Would you like to go?”
“Oh, an auction? What’s it about?”
Lu Xuan asked curiously.
“Aurora Island is the largest one among the nearby islands, housing the great Aurora Business Association, formed by several major powers and high-order cultivators on the island. They have a business footprint in every corner of the Cultivation World,”
Song Yun explained enthusiastically.
“Reportedly, there will be many valuable items in this auction, including high-grade magical tools, elixirs, talismans, exquisitely trained merfolk whose beauty and physique are comparable to human cultivators, and they offer a different flavor. Plus, there will also be high-grade rare spirit plants and sea beasts obtained from the Boundless Sea. I’ve heard that there will even be high-grade spiritual liquid traced back from the deep sea.”
“High-grade Spiritual Liquid?”
Hearing these words, Lu Xuan’s heart stirred. The chief reason he came to Void Nether Island was to seek possible high-grade Spiritual Liquid.
The Dragon Corpse Grass species snuck out from the bottom of the Thousand Dragon Lake requires nourishment from high-grade Spiritual Liquid during its growth process.
And Void Nether Island has a higher probability of producing high-grade Spiritual Liquid compared to other places.
Sure enough, shortly after he came to the island, he learned of the high-grade Spiritual Liquid from Song Yun.
“Well, I have been feeling a bit bored these days on the island. This could be a good opportunity to take a breather.”
“Arrange a trip for us to Aurora Island when the time comes.”
“Yes!”
Song Yun happily agreed. He had invited Lu Xuan out with a hint of ulterior motives.
The inner sect disciple of Sky Sword Sect, reputed in Void Nether Island for several months, had been staying behind closed doors, making it seem as if the island lacked a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
Taking Lu Xuan to Aurora Island would allow them to showcase their strength and deter those who might harbor ill intentions towards Void Nether Island.
Days later, Lu Xuan embarked on a trip to Aurora Island, sailing on a legal chariot provided by the Song family.
The chariot was built entirely of Spirit Wood and was deployed with numerous low-level formations that offered both speed and defense.
The chariot was luxuriously appointed. Sitting inside, even with tumultuous waves outside, one would not feel any turbulence.
About half a day later, guided by the cultivators of the Song family, Lu Xuan disembarked on Aurora Island and arrived in front of a magnificent building at the center of the island.
“Senior Lu, the auction organized by the Aurora Business Association is held here,”
Song Yun fell a step behind Lu Xuan and said quietly.
“I regret my delayed welcome, and I apologize for any inconvenience.”
“Before Lu Xuan could even enter the building, a chubby middle-aged cultivator stepped forward to greet him, a friendly smile lighting up his face.
“Friend Lu is young yet possesses profound cultivation and extraordinary comportment. You are indeed a disciple worthy of a great sect.”
The middle-aged cultivator’s smile was sincere, warm as a spring breeze, creating a favorable impression.
“Chairman Gao, you flatter me,” Lu Xuan responded with a slight smile. He had learnt much about the Aurora Business Association from Song Yun, and thus recognized this man at glance to be one of the few people in power on Aurora Island.
“Please come in, Friend Lu.”
The middle-aged cultivator extended his hand, beckoning Lu Xuan to enter the building.
Lu Xuan nodded, appearing composed, and under the watchful eyes of the gathered cultivators, stepped inside.
The moment they set foot in the hall, whispering conversations arose from nearby.
“Who is this unfamiliar young cultivator, and where did he sprout from? I haven’t seen him before.”
“Such an impressive demeanor, even requiring Chairman Gao, known for his ruthlessness, to personally welcome him. His background must be extraordinary.”
“Haven’t you been following the news from other islands? There’s a rumor that a Foundation Establishment cultivator arrived on Void Nether Island two or three months ago. He is supposedly an Inner Sect Disciple sent by the Sky Sword Sect to guard the island.”
“I heard that. I didn’t expect it to be him in front of us now.
After arriving on Void Nether Island, he rarely showed his face in public, spending his days in the company of Spirit Field Spirit Plants, with no intention of exploring the Boundless Sea.”
Outside the grand building, many cultivators looking at Lu Xuan, personally greeted by the chairman of the association, started a flurry of discussions.
Under the guidance of the portly middle-aged cultivator and two beautiful girls, Lu Xuan was escorted to a luxurious private room.
Faint-yellow incense burned inside the room, filling it with a captivating aroma.
The floor was layered with beast’s skin, giving one the sensation of walking on clouds.
As soon as Lu Xuan took his seat, cultivators from the association began to bring Spirit Fruit and Spiritual Tea to him.
Then, people started coming in to visit him.
Due to his prestigious identity as an Inner Sect Disciple of the Sky Sword Sect, and his secretive nature, there were endless waves of cultivators who wanted to meet him.
Under the screening of Song Yun, the cultivators allowed into his room were at least of high-level Qi cultivation, occasionally a local Foundation Establishment Cultivator would drop by to acquaint themselves with Lu Xuan.
This arrangement saved him a lot of trouble and provided some peace and quiet.
Just as he was intending to close his eyes for a rest, a handsome young man strolled in.
The young man’s cultivation level was comparable to Lu Xuan, and he exuded a casual and carefree aura.
“Friend Lu, I’m finally able to meet you today.”
The young man sprawled over a chair, a smirk playing on his lips, as he addressed Lu Xuan.
“And who might you be?” Lu Xuan inquired.
“Like you, I also come from a sect. I’m here to protectan island. But unlike you, who hail from the Sky Sword Sect, I’m from the Departure Mountain Sect. Just call me Shi Zhong.”
“So, it’s Daoist Shi, I’ve heard much about you.”
Gesturing a greeting, Lu Xuan said, although he had mainly stayed in the Sky Sword Sect and seldom ventured out, he had some basic knowledge about the Cultivation World.
The Departure Mountain Sect was comparable in fame to the Sky Sword Sect, except the former was renowned in the Cultivation World for its Charm making, while the latter was known for its prowess in Sword Dao.
“Friend Lu, you are really quite elusive. You’ve been on Void Nether Island for so long, yet this is the first time you’ve appeared in public.”
“My apologies for that, it’s in my nature. I’m not good at socializing, and prefer the company of plants and gardening,” Lu Xuan replied.
“What’s there to manage in Spirit Plants, you just sow them and let them grow.”
“Friend Lu, why don’t you join me and fish some rare sea beasts in the deep of the Boundless Sea?”
