The Sword Master slowly looked at everyone, and after a slight silence, he spoke.

"You are all the talented young people of our Sword Sect, and you deserve the attention of our Sword Sect. So I don't want to hide it from you. Now our Sword Sect has encountered a huge crisis."

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, not knowing where the sword master started from.

Indeed, Jian Zong has suffered huge losses these days, but these losses are not unbearable for Jian Zong. Just like the Wanhua Tiandao Sect, many monks died before, but they did not suffer any fatal crisis.

"The Demon Sect and the Orthodox Sect simultaneously sent messages to our Sword Sect, hoping that our Sword Sect would join them."

The sword master did not explain immediately, but instead talked about a piece of seemingly irrelevant information.

"It's not just us, the other nine sects are also like this."

Nine major sects?

Xiao Tianyun was slightly stunned when he understood what the sword master meant.

If two major sects target ten religions at the same time, are they trying to dismember the ten religions and pull each sect into their own camp?

"Yes, it is exactly what you think. Originally, among the three religions in the world, our ten religions were the weakest. It can even be said that balance and neutrality can be maintained through the battle between the two major religions. But now it is obvious that no matter what

Whether it is a demonic sect or an orthodox sect, they cannot allow us, the ten other religions, to continue to sit on the sidelines."

The sword master's words had no beginning or end, and everyone was a little puzzled for a moment.

"Are the Orthodox Church and the Demonic Church officially going to war?"

Xiao Tianyun had a flash of inspiration in his mind and couldn't help but say.

"There has always been a war between the two religions, but this time they probably want to really decide the outcome! No matter who wins or loses, no one will be allowed to look at it!"

Everyone couldn't help but fell silent slightly.

Sword Master's words are naturally easy to understand, but precisely because they are understood, they are irrefutable.

"I wonder what the master wants us to do?"

Xiao Tianyun spoke again. Compared to others, Xiao Tianyun was easier to recover. He was more focused on how to restore the current situation.

"Of course I didn't ask you to come and fight with someone head-on."

The sword master didn't mind what Xiao Tianyun said. After being silent for a while, he spoke slowly again.

"There is one thing that you don't have to hide. Brother Sword Master is preparing to ascend."

Everyone was even more stunned!

The Sword Master has always been at the Dao Ming stage. Even if he is promoted to the Earth Immortal stage, he does not need to ascend immediately.

It can be said that the strength of the Sword Master has always been the mainstay of the Sword Sect. With the Sword Master around, the Sword Sect has the greatest guarantee.

But the Sword Master actually wants to ascend at this most critical moment?

"That day, shortly after the two junior brothers Jian Xiao and Jian Fei died, we realized that it was the Demon Sect that had taken action. With the strength of the Demon Sect, if everyone in our Sword Sect took action, it would only make the Sword Sect more vulnerable to death.

Hitting an egg against a stone will lead to rapid decline."

The Sword Master said slowly, it's no wonder that the Sword Sect has been quiet these days. It turns out that the elders of the Sword Sect have already taken action, but they just don't want to alarm the subordinates.

The people who arrived here, including Xiao Tianyun, all looked at each other and were speechless.

What the top leaders of Jianzong did has to be said to be correct, but it makes people who know about it feel ashamed. Their own strength is still insufficient, otherwise...

"This battle didn't last long, but Brother Sword Saint was the main force, and then he covered us and retreated to Sword Sect, so we were severely injured. Although he used the secret method of Sword Sect, Brother Sword Saint only had three months of life.

, and as time goes by in these three months, the combat power is gradually lost."

The sword master's words were very plain, but when he said them, they made people feel shocked!

"Senior Sword Saint's injury has no possibility of recovery above the earth. The only way is to fly to the world of heaven and use the endless fairy energy in the heaven to recover. So Brother Sword Saint has no choice but to ascend."

Only then did everyone understand what Sword Master meant.

"As for the few of us, this time we had a big battle with the Demon Sect, but when the other party was well prepared, although we did not die and were not hit as hard as Brother Sword Master, we still suffered a lot.

A minor injury. If you want to recover, it can take as little as ten years or as many as a hundred years."

Everyone was shocked, and it was no wonder that the Sword Master would say that this was a crisis for the Sword Sect.

It is indeed a crisis.

Although the strength of Jian Zong is still not weaker than any other sect, the strong men of Jian Zong have all been severely damaged, and their strength has naturally been greatly reduced!

"My Sword Sect has been established for tens of thousands of years and has experienced countless ups and downs. Whether it is the Demon Sect or the Orthodox Sect, if they want to destroy our Sword Sect, they will have to pay a huge price."

At this moment, Sword Master's face turned solemn.

"However, if this delay continues, our Sword Sect will also inevitably end in decline. So I come to you this time to entrust the hope of the Sword Sect's future rise to a few of you."

Entrusted with hope for future rise?

Everyone fell silent for a moment, not only because this matter was too big, but also because there was no way to talk about it.

"Although the two religions are plotting against each other, our Sword Sect can only join the Orthodox Sect now, but that doesn't mean we have to fawn over them. After this battle, even the two religions don't dare to look down on our Sword Sect.

!”

It’s not that the Sword Master doesn’t know how to plot, he just prefers upright plotting. This is conspiracy. My strength is here, so you don’t dare to act rashly!

"You have all been or are still leading a sect. You can also be said to have been carefully trained by our Sword Sect. You are candidates for the head of my sect."

As soon as the sword master said these words, everyone was slightly shocked.

A candidate for the head of the sect!

Even Xiao Tianyun couldn't help but feel excited when he heard this. This is the position of head of a sect!

Even if the people who are able to come here are all people with a strong heart, they can't help but act like this at this time, which shows that the position of the head of the Sword Sect is very powerful.

"Originally, you still need hundreds of years of testing to see who is most suitable to inherit the position of head of our Sword Sect."

The Sword Master seemed to have never seen the excitement on everyone's face. After all, he was not so excited when he inherited the Sword Sect in the past?

"But the situation is uncertain now. No one knows whether we old bones will perish in this war between the two religions. If we don't decide on a retreat early, it will be too late to regret it. So I should choose among you.

Come out with three or four people, and if the Sword Sect survives its decline in the future, we will rely on you to help our Sword Sect rise again!"

The Sword Master slowly stood up and raised his hand to stop what everyone wanted to say.

"We, the Sword Sect, established our sect with swords. I already know your abilities. However, I don't know yet whether your sword is sharp or not, so I still have to test your swords in this trial!"

"Master, are you still going to target the Ten Thousand Flowers Tiandao Sect? Or are you going to kill the followers of the Demon Sect?"

The Jian Changkong who opened his mouth was the person who had achieved the most merit when he targeted the Wanhua Tiandao Sect, and he was already a Dzogchen monk in the Divine Void Stage.

When Jian Changkong opened his mouth, there was a hint of abandonment in his tone.

But this is normal, this person's strength is extraordinary, and there are several people who have won the first place among them.

What's more, now that he has reached the Dzogchen stage of the Divine Void Stage, he can even be equal to the seniors of the Sword Sect. Naturally, he has the slightest bit of arrogance!

"Before, we targeted the Ten Thousand Flowers Tiandao Sect because it was likely to be possessed by demons and join the Demon Sect, and the Youtanming Demon Flower was indeed powerful, so it was better to attack first. But now we can no longer care about it."

The sword master sighed softly, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he slowly said another thing.

"This time we are not only choosing someone who will retain the hope of the Jianzong in the future, but we are also choosing the position of the leader of the Nine Meridians. The next steps for our fellow apprentices are to deal with the people of the two religions without going into seclusion. The affairs of the Jianzong can no longer be taken care of.

.As soon as the Sword Sect responds to the matter, it will be entrusted to the new Nine Meridians Master."

The sword master's words shocked people again.

Even though he knew that Jian Zong was in crisis at this time, it was really surprising that Jian Zong revealed so much information one after another.

This is clearly a way to pass on the sword sect to the next generation.

There are more than 20 monks who have come here. There are six or seven of them with low cultivation level, such as Xiao Tianyun, who are at the third or fourth level of the Divine Void Stage. Those with the highest cultivation level, such as Jian Changkong, are not only at the Great Perfection of the Divine Void Stage, but also at the ninth level of the Divine Void Stage.

There are only three people there.

If it were the case in the past, unless it was the Heart Sword lineage, where would they be able to take charge of the lineage?

"Master, what should we do?"

Jian Hong couldn't help but speak. Although this Jian Hong was only at the ninth level of the Divine Void Stage, and she was only a woman, her strength was not weak. She had once killed a cultivator in the Divine Void Stage with a sword.

Jian Changkong and Jian Hong’s intention to ask at this time was very obvious.

But even Xiao Tianyun had to admit that if it were really said, the most likely candidates to be entrusted to him were Jian Changkong, Jian Hong and a few others.

"The strong men of the Demon Sect were also seriously injured after the previous battle, but a large number of monks are still hiding in Kanzhou. While you protect yourselves, try to kill each other as much as possible. In addition, if anyone dares to take advantage of this

When my sword sect is weak and harms the interests of my sword sect, I will kill them all in the same way!"

At the end of the sentence, a hint of ferocity flashed across the Sword Master's face!

"yes!"

The Sword Master nodded and waved his hand, and more than twenty rays of light suddenly shot out and fell into everyone's hands. Once the light condensed, there was a sword-shaped object condensed in the palm.

"This is the sword return order, a rare magic weapon of our Sword Sect. This treasure has only one use. As long as you smash this treasure, you will be sent back to the Sword Sect in that moment. Remember, the only way to use it is to use it.

Only sword energy can break this treasure, and other external forces are difficult to damage it."

The sword master hesitated for a moment and then said.
